Chapter 700: This Is Most Urgent!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the desolate mountains several hundred kilometers away from the Utopia Faction, Xu Que and Liu Jingning were flying toward the nearest Teleportation Device as they prepared to leave for the North Sea!
As they were on their way, Xu Que asked Liu Jingning, “Little sister, what the h.e.l.l is happening in the Infinite Sea? I am confused.”
Liu Jingning replied seriously, “Just now, our Faction Leader told me that before leaving for the Infinite Sea, the Patriarchs of the Utopia Faction said the shackle of the four continents is about to be broken. A chaotic period is coming!”
“A chaotic period? That’s none of my business! Now, the most urgent thing is to save Hongyan!” Xu Que said in surprise. He did not want to partic.i.p.ate in things like saving the world!
For him, the most important thing was to save Jiang Hongyan. Then, he would acc.u.mulate Acting-Tough Points and prepare to go back to Earth, so that he could find out the reason for his death in his past life and even visit his younger sister!
“Listen to me!” Liu Jingning said. “The four continents are not all of the World of Cultivators! Outside the Infinite Sea, there are another two larger continents, which face the North Sea and the East Continent across the sea respectively. It is said that the big shots in the ancient time set up the shackle together to isolate the four continents from those two continents. Now the shackle is about to be broken, and sects from those two continents are planning to invade our four continents to rob resources and lands! So, this entire area will fall into disorder soon!”
“How is this related to Hongyan?” Xu Que frowned.
The reason that he left for the North Sea with Liu Jingning was that Liu Jingning had told him that the thing that happened in the Infinite Sea was related to Jiang Hongyan. Now, it seemed it was more or less irrelevant!
“That’s the problem!”
Liu Jingning said, as her expression became more and more serious, “According to the original calculation of the Patriarchs, the shackle will be broken for at least ten years. However, the ancient book obtained by Dong Genji is related to the Ancient Bronze Hall and the shackle!”
“What do you mean?” Xu Que was stunned.
“The ancient book obtained by Dong Genji was compiled by the owner of the Ancient Bronze Hall, who is from the Xuanzhen Continent that faces the Infinite Sea across the sea!”
“After obtaining the ancient book, Dong Genji found a way to contact the Xuanzhen Continent. Then, he started to collude with a powerful sect there, along with Patriarchs of several sects here. They planned to break the shackle forcibly from inside with the a.s.sistance of that powerful sect. In this way, the cultivators of that powerful sect may enter the four continents first to rob resources and lands!” Liu Jingning’s face was filled with horror as she recounted this.
Because Dong Genji had betrayed all the cultivators in the four continents just for his own interest!
Xu Que, who didn’t care about the four continents, also frowned after hearing that.
He thought Dong Genji was just a hypocrite, but he certainly didn’t expect Dong Genji could be so wicked and shameless. Xu Que regretted that he hadn’t killed Dong Genji directly in the Upflowing Sea!
“Wait! How do your Patriarchs know that? Do they also cooperate with Dong Genji?” Xu Que asked suddenly as he looked at Liu Jingning curiously.
Liu Jingning rolled her eyes at Xu Que and said snappily, “Little Queque, although the Utopia Faction is a Demonic Sect, we won’t do things that could offend Heaven and reason! Actually, we heard this from the Patriarch of the Illusionary Flower & Moon Sect. Dong Genji invited them to work with him, but they didn’t want to do it. Therefore, they asked the Patriarchs of our Utopia Faction and other sects to go to the Infinite Sea to stop Dong Genji and those Patriarchs who chose to work with him from breaking the shackle!”
Xu Que raised his eyebrows and asked, “Since some people have gone there to stop them, why should we also go there?”
“What if they failed? This relates to the safety of numerous cultivators in the four continents! If a great battle is about to happen in the future, countless ordinary persons and creatures will also be destroyed. How could you stay away from it?” Liu Jingning asked.
“My G.o.d, little sister, I am not a savior! Some other heroes should save this world! Moreover, you said the shackle will be broken after ten years. I can do nothing to stop that!” Xu Que shrugged helplessly.
Frankly speaking, he could do nothing about this issue. The Acting-Tough Points he had were only enough for him to use the King of Tough-Acting Fist around ten times. If he was attacked by 20 or 30 Patriarchs at the Form Synthesis Stage together, he would absolutely be defeated!
“So, you are not going to go to the Infinite Sea to help, right?” Liu Jingning asked again.
“Right!” Xu Que shook his head directly.
It seemed it was a magnificent task to save the world. However, if he failed, he could lose his life easily, which was a negative bargain for him!
Liu Jingning asked again, “Really?”
Xu Que replied, “Absolutely!”
Liu Jingning curled her lips and snorted, “What about Hongyan?”
“Why is it related to Hongyan again?” Xu Que was surprised immediately.
Liu Jingning couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Xu Que and continued, “It is said that the sect in the Xuanzhen Continent is aiming at the Ancient Bronze Hall this time! They emphasized that they will not only rob resources and lands, but also take the Ancient Bronze Hall away! Dong Genji agreed with that without any hesitation!”
“What?” Xu Que widened his eyes immediately. He didn’t expect those foreign enemies were targeting the Ancient Bronze Hall!
“Now what should we do? Are we still heading for the Infinite Sea?” Liu Jingning looked at Xu Que with a sarcastic smile on her face.
Xu Que patted his chest and said earnestly, “Of course! The four continents are endangered! I will never sit by idly! What is the motto of our Exploding Heavens Faction? It is everyone’s duty to save the world!”
“The four continents are in danger! The members of the Exploding Heavens Faction will definitely go to the front line to overcome all difficulties fearlessly! We will give no thoughts to life and death! Come on, little sister, this is most urgent, and we can’t afford any delay!”
Liu Jingning was totally dumbfounded by his change of att.i.tude!
It is everyone’s duty to save the world?
The members of the Exploding Heavens Faction will go to the front line when the four continents are in danger? And this is most urgent?
This is totally different with what you said just now!
“Little sister, come on! We shall seize every minute and second to stop Dong Genji!” Xu Que urged.
Liu Jingning rolled her eyes speechlessly. Then, just as she was about to say something, she turned around, furrowing her eyebrows!
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
Suddenly, there came several air-rending sounds. Liu Jingning’s face darkened and she said seriously, “We’ve got company!”
“What?” Xu Que had also noticed several lights were das.h.i.+ng toward them from the Utopia Faction, which was behind Liu Jingning.
“Heh-heh, it seems they are people of the Li Family! With murderous looks on their faces. They look quite sick and should be treated with electric shock!” Xu Que squinted his eyes and smiled coldly as he looked at the figures in those lights.
When he was in the Utopia Faction, he didn’t want to punish the people of the Li Family. Now, since they came with ill intent, he wouldn’t spare their lives anymore!
After all, for him, the people of the Li Family were just like walking Experience Points and Acting-Tough Points, which were waiting for his harvest!
