Chapter 1046: I’ll Kill Them All!

The next day, the Four Great Continents were raging like a storm. Xu Que’s Message-Delivering Spells announced his return to this world, which also startled those families and sects that Xu Que used to offend.

Now, most of these families and sects threw themselves into the laps of the Celestials. They moved out overnight with great momentum. They announced to the world that they had vowed to eradicate the rest of the members of the Exploding Heavens Faction and kill Xu Que!

The members of the Exploding Heavens Faction who were hiding in the Four Great Continents rushed toward the South Continent secretly. They planned to seek shelter with Xu Que. They planned to join Xu Que, so that they could defeat their enemies to vent their grievances and anger acc.u.mulated during all these years that Xu Que was away.

This day was bound to be an extraordinary day! Everybody was moving toward the South Continent. Xu Que’s enemies who were already in the South Continent were much faster.

The Heaven Horn Ox Tribe had a branch in the South Continent. After hearing Xu Que’s message, they sent several Celestials to check out Xu Que’s position immediately.

“Master, please be sure to kill Xu Que! He has numerous treasures, and you will absolutely find what you want!”

“Never underestimate him! He realized a remarkable progress in his cultivation by reaching the Infant Transformation Stage from the Original Infant Stage within one year! After that, he destroyed his cultivation achievements. Then he regained his peak state by reaching the Void Training Stage within three years!”

“Exactly! He must have a lot of treasures! Also he knows a powerful magic art which could attack his enemy with his Taoist Connotation. He used to kill powerhouses at the Form Synthesis Stage when he was at the Void Training Stage!”

“He has disappeared for more than ten years! It is said that he went to the Celestial World. Now, he has returned. I’m afraid he has also reached the Celestial Realm. Please be careful!”

On their way, members of the Heaven Horn Ox Tribe kept providing advice to the young Celestials respectfully. These young Celestials were in Taoist robes. A golden word “Ivy” was embroidered on their sleeves. All of them had reached the Half Celestial Realm!

When they were walking, their feet didn’t touch the ground. Their movements were so flexible that they were like deities in plumes of smoke! Among them, the male Celestials were so handsome and the female Celestials were extremely beautiful!

“According to your report, this guy is really extraordinary!” A woman, who was very graceful and attractive, said at this time. Her voice was just like silver bells.

A man beside her also said, nodding his head, “He destroyed his cultivation achievements and regained peak state within three months! Even in the World of Near Celestial, he would be deemed a genius! I guess he realized this accomplishment in this place with a treasure!”

The rest of the people said with disdainful smiles, “Heh, heh, we don’t care whether he has treasures or not! He will never rival us as long as his cultivation stage is lower than the Human Celestial Realm!”

“The Human Celestial Realm? That’s impossible! No matter how talented he is, he could reach the Half Celestial Realm like us at most within a dozen years!”

“Hah, hah! We don’t need to waste our words here! Since we’ve got an order, let’s just chop off his head!”

Then they picked up speed by turning themselves into smoke.

Seeing that, members of the Heaven Horn Ox Tribe were quite excited.

Xu Que killed their Holy Son and ruined their plan to seize the Living Holy Water from the Mystery Land, which made their tribe a laughingstock of this world. When an opportunity for revenge was in front of them, how could they stay calm?

“Hah, hah! Xu Que, you will die today even if you have become a Celestial!”

Members of the Heaven Horn Ox Tribe laughed as they walked forward following the young Celestials.

…..

At the same time, in a place close to the Mystery Land in the South Continent, Xu Que was sitting on the ground with his legs crossed and his eyes closed. An Eight-Star sword and a broken sword were floating in front of him. A strand of black fog was gus.h.i.+ng out from the Eight-Star sword into the broken sword.

This was at the request of the Sword Spirit. It was quite sensitive to swords. It even sensed Xu Que had such a powerful broken sword, which was extorted from the Refined Moon Palace. This broken sword was an inferior Celestial Artifact, which was much more advanced than the Eight-Star sword.

“Sister Hongyan, is this Sword Spirit a ghost? Why does it choose that broken sword instead of this sharp sword?” Seeing that, Xu Feifei couldn’t help but ask Jiang Hongyan.

Jiang Hongyan replied with a faint smile, “This broken sword is an Inferior Celestial Artifact, which is much more powerful than those ordinary swords. The more powerful a sword is, the more lethal a Sword Spirit in it will be! Your brother is going to face extremely powerful enemies. So, he has to confront them with his peak state. This Sword Spirit is one of his lethal weapons!”

“Now I know!” Xu Feifei nodded her head.

“What? It seems some people are approaching. I don’t know whether they are hostile. b.u.t.tface, go there and…. Wait! Where is b.u.t.tface?” Jiang Hongyan was shocked to not see b.u.t.tface and never finished her words.

b.u.t.tface had disappeared, and she didn’t sense that at all.

“Right! How could b.u.t.tface disappear?” Xu Feifei also said in surprise.

At this time, the toy poodle raised his head and said breathlessly, “He…he said he is going to run away because he doesn’t like swords. He doesn’t want to have conflicts with the Sword Spirit for he could hurt it!”

“He doesn’t…like swords?” Xu Feifei said with embarra.s.sment.

Jiang Hongyan said as she shook her head with a smile, “I guess he left secretly because he is scared of the Sword Spirit!”

“What the h.e.l.l? Why do we have such a cowardly dog?” Xu Feifei said in embarra.s.sment.

“Feifei, stay behind me! A lot of people are approaching, and I don’t know whether they are hostile!” Jiang Hongyan said gently at this time. She stood in front of Xu Feifei and fixed her beautiful eyes on a wooded mountain in the distance. She sensed more than ten people were running toward them. However, all these people were not powerful for they were just at the Infant Transformation Stage and the Void Training Stage. Therefore, she didn’t worry about threats from these people.

Whoos.h.!.+

Soon, more than ten figures appeared on the mountain, moving toward them vigilantly.

Jiang Hongyan spotted them immediately. It seemed these people were also checking out the situation in this area. Then they came running out, shouting with joy.

“Faction Leader!”

“My lady!”

“We are members of the Exploding Heavens Faction! Finally, we have found you!”

“Great! Both the Faction Leader and his wife are back!”

“Look! More than ten years have pa.s.sed, and our Faction Leader is still so handsome and graceful! The black fog above his head is definitely an extraordinary magic art!”

“According to the aura of this black fog, I guess the Faction Leader has also reached the Celestial Realm!”

“We’re saved!”

These people murmured excitedly as they walked out from the forest.

Buzz!

Almost at the same time, the black fog above Xu Que’s head disappeared. The Eight-Star sword fell to the ground and became ashes. The antique broken sword started to vibrate violently with a piercing sound. The next moment, the rust stains on the sword started to fall off rapidly. A brand-new, sharp sword edge could be seen. Even though this sword was broken, a magnificent and horrible killing intent and aura still gushed out from it as if it could cut off anything in this world.

Seeing that, those newly arrived members of the Exploding Heavens Faction stopped and started to watch the sword, holding their breath reverently.

“The momentum of this sword is so strong!”

“When did our Faction Leader start to use a sword?”

“Could it be that…he has become the legendary Sword Celestial?”

Those people were murmuring in low voices as their eyes lit up excitedly.

“Nonsense!” Xu Que stood up at this time. He put away the broken sword as he looked at the members of the Exploding Heavens Faction. When the broken sword was put away, the sword sound disappeared together with that horrible killing intent, which could make people feel chilliness on their backs.

Xu Que’s cultivation stage, the Crossing Calamity Stage, was displayed clearly.

“What?”

“This….”

Those members of the Exploding Heavens Faction were shocked. Their expressions were frozen on their faces.

The Crossing Calamity Stage?

How could the Faction Leader be at the Crossing Calamity Stage after disappearing for so many years?

This is impossible! Our Faction Leader used to realize rapid progress in cultivation stages. How could he be just at the Crossing Calamity Stage?

How can he confront the Celestials?

How could he make trouble in this way?

Oh, no! We are doomed! We’ve boarded the wrong s.h.i.+p!

All of a sudden, the members of the Exploding Heavens Faction fell into despair. The excited expressions on their faces had already been replaced by despair and helplessness!

They regained confidence, not only because of Xu Que’s return, but also because of Xu Que’s strength and talents! They thought Xu Que would definitely come back as a Celestial! However, they never expected Xu Que was just at Level 4 of the Crossing Calamity Stage!

“Hey! How dare you look at me in this way! Why do you change your expressions? Why are you so disappointed in me?” Xu Que shouted at those people.

“Faction Leader, this time you really…fooled all of us!” A member said miserably.

“Holy c.r.a.p! Why do you say that?” Xu Que was seriously confused.

Those members said with embarra.s.sment, “Faction Leader, your Message- Delivering Spell gave a boost to our morale. We thought you had reached the Celestial Realm. So we came here to join you!”

“Our enemies are countless Celestials! How can we defeat them in this way?”

“Ah! We are doomed! I’m afraid all of us will be eradicated together!”

…..

“Shut up!” Xu Que yelled immediately. “You are a bunch of cowards! How dare you say you are members of the Exploding Heavens Faction! Who introduced you into our faction?”

The people replied together, “The Vice Faction Leader b.u.t.tface!”

“He is nothing! OK, I asked you to join me because I am able to protect you! As for those Celestials, I will kill them all!” Xu Que said with a smile.

When he had just arrived at this place, he talked tough but he was not confident at all. When he obtained the Firestorm Wheels, he was more confident, for at least he could ensure his own safety. Now, he had awakened the Sword Spirit and put it into that broken sword. After talking with the Sword Spirit, Xu Que was very confident.

Celestials?

Heh, heh, I will kill all of them!

Boom!

At this time, several sounds of explosions came in from the sky in the distance. Plumes of blue smoke, which had covered the sky like canes, were sweeping over toward them.

Instantly, the sky was covered by a totem of ivy. Several figures walked out from the totem. Behind them, dozens of powerhouses of the Heaven Horn Ox Tribe also descended!
