Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Jiang Taixu!
The name might not sound strange to others, but for Xu Que, the Divine King Jiang Taixu was an extraordinary figure. Both the All and the Troop were among the Nine Secrets, and the Nine Secrets came from “Zhe Tian”, in which there was an extremely powerful being: Jiang Taixu.
Jiang Taixu was a dignified, just, and honorable figure. When Xu Que was still on Earth, he had read about him in a novel and was greatly impressed by him. So he almost freaked out when he heard his name.
This might be a coincidence. The world I am in now is completely from the world of Zhe Tian. There are the Nine Secrets and Heaven Emperor Huang. Maybe there is also Jiang Taixu.
Xu Que was extremely interested in the boy named Jiang Taixu.
“Your name is Jiang Taixu?” Xu Que reached out his hand and gently touched the boy’s little head.
The boy raised his head and looked at Xu Que with his big eyes and nodded, “Yes. What’s your name?”
“I am Xu Que!” Xu Que smiled and said, “I am your brother-in-law by the way!”
“Brother-in-law?”
The little boy and little girl exclaimed and looked at both Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan in surprise. Jiang Hongyan smiled and did not contradict Xu Que’s words.
“Wow! Brother-in-law!” The little boy and little girl said happily.
“How cute you two are!” Xu Que was very pleased.
“Taixu, Linlin, do you want to learn the Nine Secrets?” Xu Que asked.
“My dearest brother-in-law, what are the Nine Secrets? Are they very powerful?”
“Of course they are! If you want to learn, I will be very glad to teach you! In the future, if you ever meet someone called Yefan, promise me that you will teach him the Nine Secrets, okay?” Xu Que smiled.
“Yes!” The boy nodded.
Seeing this, everyone present was shocked and jealous at the same time.
Everyone knew that Xu Que’s incantations were very powerful. In the past, even if he hadn’t gotten his own Taoist Connotation, he still was capable of heavily injuring the Holy Sons and Holy Virgins. So it was very shocking for them to hear that Xu Que was about to teach all his incantations to two little children.
“Hongyan, let’s go to the Gong Family and the Bai Family and pick some gifts for Taixu and Linlin!”
Jiang Hongyan smiled and nodded and followed Xu Que.
Everyone present sighed, shook their heads, and felt very sorry for the Gong Family and the Bai Family.
Picking gifts for the two children?! My G.o.d, the two Influential Families are about to be finished.
“Dearest brother-in-law, I have a question to ask you!” The little girl asked Xu Que.
“Go ahead.”
“My mother used to say that a man would only want to marry a woman who is beautiful. Since my sister Hongyan is such a beauty, is that why you wanted to marry her?” The little girl looked at Xu Que with her naive eyes.
Xu Que was a bit surprised and raised his head to stare at the sky. Then he gently shook his head and said in a deep voice: “Actually, everyone all looks the same in my eyes, or, in other words, I can’t tell if a woman is beautiful or not. To be honest, the reason I want to marry your sister is not because she is beautiful, it’s because I don’t know if she is beautiful or not!”
“…”
Both the little boy and little girl were speechless, as was Jiang Hongyan.
Everyone all looks the same in your eyes? You have no idea if Jiang Hongyan is beautiful or not?! How shameless you are! How about Liu Jingning then?! Both these two are the most beautiful and talented Holy Virgins in the Four Great Continents, and you have them both!
Ding! “Congratulations to the host ‘Xu Que’ for acting tough. He is rewarded with 2,300 Acting Tough Points!”
Ding! “Congratulations to the host ‘Xu Que’ for acting pathetically tough. He is especially rewarded with 5,000 Acting Tough Points!”
Hearing the sounds of the notification, Xu Que felt as if someone was pitying him. He turned around and smiled at the little boy, “By the way, Taixu, do you want to join the Exploding Heavens Faction?”
The little boy quickly nodded, “Yes!”
Seeing this, everyone present rolled their eyes and almost fainted.
You just allowed a little boy to join the Exploding Heavens Faction, while you refused those powerful cultivators’ requests of joining?! Does it mean that as long as I have some sort of connection with Xu Que, I and my children can get into the Exploding Heavens Faction?
After Xu Que finally left, all the people present got into a heated discussion.
“Hurry up! Ask others!”
“Ask what?!”
“Are you an idiot?! Ask others, and find out who are Xu Que’s best friends. Then I shall ask them to help me get into the Exploding Heavens Faction!”
“Wait for a minute! I remember there is a dog! It seems that the relations.h.i.+p between that dog and Xu Que is an unusual one!”
“I see, and the Utopia Faction? Liu Jingning has been engaged to Xu Que, hasn’t she?”
“The Utopia Faction is so lucky! The head of the Utopia Faction must be so happy!”
“After today, Xu Que and the Exploding Heavens Faction are definitely going to be famous. So will the Utopia Faction!”
“I should go find b.u.t.tface first!”
“I will pay a visit to the Utopia Faction!”
…
At the same time, there was complete silence at the valley of the Gong Family.
Just like the Jiang Family, after knowing that Xu Que had chosen to have a fight with the cultivators from the other side, they had immediately set up a Protection Array.
They worried that Xu Que would choose the place where the Gong Family lived as his battlefield.
“How is everything going in the Jiang Family?”
“Their Protection Array is as powerful as ours, so I guess we will be fine?”
“I don’t know. A cultivator who is at the threshold of the Crossing Calamity Stage is much more powerful than we have expected. Once the fight breaks out, I don’t think the Protection Array can protect us for too long!”
“I only hope the cultivators from the other side can kill Xu Que once and for all, for G.o.d’s sake!”
Bang!
All of a sudden, the valley began to shake.
“What’s going on?! Xu Que has come already?”
A few Patriarchs of the Gong Family were astonished and sat on the ground all together. Their voices were s.h.i.+vering.
“The Protection Array is…is destroyed!”
“What?!”
With one hit, the Spiritual Array is broken?! You must be joking!
The next minute, Xu Que’s voice was heard: “My friends of the Gong Family, I am Xu Que. I miss you so much! Come out and have a chat with me! I promise I will not take a thread or a needle from you!”
Everyone in the Gong Family took a deep breath and their faces all got pale.
We are doomed! Even the cultivators from the other side were not able to kill him!
Bang!
Right at that moment, the door of the conference hall opened. Everyone turned around and saw Xu Que, Jiang Hongyan, and two little children standing outside the door. Jiang Hongyan looked like a demure and elegant queen; while Xu Que was shamelessly smiling and looked exactly like a rogue.
“Wow, everyone is here! Come and have a seat!”
Xu Que glanced at everyone and walked straight into the hall, asking everyone to have a seat as if this was his home.
The Patriarchs of the Gong Family were shocked and asked, “Xu Que, what can we do for you?!”
“Nothing special. Well, in fact, do you see the two little children? They are so cute, and cute kids need to be rewarded. I would like you to lay out the best things you have got, and I want to pick out some and give them to the children as presents.” Xu Que smiled.
Hearing this, the Gong Family was furious.
Cute kids need to be rewarded?! Why have you come to us, and why don’t you reward them yourselves?!
Xu Que, you are talking nonsense! Don’t forget, the cultivators from the other side are still waiting to kill you!” A Patriarch of the Gong Family said.
“Who are waiting to kill me? Oh, I see, you mean them!” Xu Que gently patted his forehead and smiled, “I must be getting too old to remember them!”
“It’s not too late anyway. I suggest you run immediately!” The Patriarchs of the Gong Family sneered.
“Why should I run? By the way, I want to do some business with you!” Xu Que smiled and took out his Beast Soul Bag.
“What business?!” The Gong Family frowned. The Patriarchs of the Gong Family glanced at Xu Que’s Beast Soul Bag and shook their heads. “We don’t want to do any business with you. I think you should leave now! We will tell the cultivators you are here when they come!”
“Wait, you should at least see what is inside the Beast Soul Bag! There are a few powerful pets of both the top level of the Form Synthesis Stage and the threshold of the Crossing Calamity Stage! They are all on sale!” Xu Que said, while opening the Beast Soul Bag.
Pets of both the top level of the Form Synthesis Stage and the threshold of the Crossing Calamity Stage?!
The Patriarchs of the Gong Family looked into the Beast Soul Bag and were stunned.
There was complete silence.…
