1519 First Love
BOOM!
With a loud whistling sound, the three-dimensional dragon, s.h.i.+ning with a golden light, bared its teeth and brandished its claws, as it swept forward.
The members of the Taekwondo Club were frozen in place. They seemed to have lost their ability to react. It really didn’t matter because even if they had reacted, they wouldn’t have been able to dodge this magnificent dragon in time. As it was, they just stood and watched, wide-eyed, as this dragon giving off a golden light flew right into their faces.
AAHHH!!
The next moment, these pitiful members of the Taekwondo Club had been swept up into the air. The dragon ran through them in a matter of minutes, and then it quickly dissipated.
These members of the Taekwondo Club started to fall from the air, one after another. Everyone watching this was equally scared and frozen in place, and no one dared to go catch them, so they slammed onto the ground with several loud thuds.
Suddenly, wailing sounds filled the air.
Even if they’d practiced a lot of Taekwondo and knew how to resist attacks, falling heavily from high in the air caused many of the bones in their arms and legs to break.
Luckily, their heads hadn’t hit the ground. Otherwise, they could’ve suffered concussions or even severe brain damage.
At this moment, all the onlookers who had been anywhere near this scene were dead silent. Everyone felt stupefied and stood frozen where they’d been.
“Why did this golden dragon and palm technique seem so familiar?”
“Had it been on a TV series?”
“Eighteen Dragon Palms? The dragon is repentant?”
“Was this special effects?”
“How could this be?”
Ji Shengnan looked at Xu Que with terror. Her eyes were full of conflicting emotions, and she wanted to say something, but hesitated.
Xuanyuan Wanrong had also been stunned. This palm technique was very common in the World of Cultivators, and even moderately strong cultivators could practice it. “But now that they had been reduced to being mortals, how was he still able to use this technique?”
The formation of imperial Qi and the release of the inner breath, to a certain extent, could be regarded as an immortal cultivation method.
“Unless this guy has come into contact with True Core Strength, or became a cultivator through martial arts before he went to the World of Cultivators…” Xuanyuan Wanrong was shocked. But then she immediately shook her head to reject this speculation.
“Impossible!”
“Xu Que could not have become a cultivator through martial arts.”
According to his current bone age and the strength of this palm technique, even with outstanding talent, and even if he had been exposed to strong Qi, it would not be possible for him to have become a cultivator through martial arts.
When she’d first seen this guy in the Celestial Burial Valley, his bone age had been only about 20 years old, and that had only been a few years ago.
So what had happened to this guy in these few short years, and how had he attained such a high level in a seemingly single bound?
Thinking about all of this, Xuanyuan Wanrong couldn’t help but be filled with infinite curiosity.
In the past, she hadn’t known anything about Xu Que’s background and also she hadn’t been interested enough to find out. However, now that she was in this position where she was being forced to get to know him, she had discovered that Xu Que’s past was very astounding and mysterious.
TSK! TSK! TSK! “What a pity. My force wasn’t strong enough to have caused some of them to die.”
Xu Que stood before the members of the Taekwondo Club. Looking at them rolling on the ground and howling, he shook his head with regret and muttered.
Hearing what he’d said, everyone took in a big breath of air.
“Sh*t, he’d wanted them to die?”
“Was Xu Que crazy?”
Beating up so many people today, it was pretty likely that he would have to go to prison. If he’d really killed someone, then it could have been a point of no return.
However, for Xu Que, none of this was really a big deal.
After all…this world was fake.
Although everyone looked real, everything had just come from his world of memory. As soon as he’d pa.s.sed the tribulation of love with Xuanyuan Wanrong, he would be able to leave, so why would he have any fear about killing people?
Xuanyuan Wanrong also looked indifferent. She also knew that this was just a world of memory. And, even if it weren’t the world of memory, what did killing a few mortals who were bullies matter? In a cruel place like the World of Cultivators, this kind of thing would really not be worth mentioning.
“Okay, everything is all settled. Let’s go get a room.” Xu Que clapped his hands and turned toward Xuanyuan Wanrong. He had a grin on his face, with a hint of roguishness. In the eyes of all the watching students, he was acting like a living Demon.
After beating up all these people, he was still in the mood to get a room?
A lot of these people were still immersed in the horror of the Eighteen Dragon Palms, but suddenly they had been stunned by Xu Que’s words.
“Okay!” Xuanyuan Wanrong nodded lightly and actually agreed.
She didn’t know what getting a room meant. She’d only heard Xu Que mention that getting a room would help to promote their feelings toward each other and would help them become a couple, which was what she wanted.
If they could become a couple who loved each other and pa.s.sed the tribulation of love, then there would still be hope that they could continue living.
Everyone present who witnessed this scene almost vomited blood.
What a nice lady! What a personality! Why did she throw herself in Xu Que’s arms and actively enter the tiger’s den with Xu Que?
However, no matter how many guys felt jealous or sorry for Xuanyuan Wanrong, they didn’t dare to come forward to make any comments to Xu Que or attempt to fight with him over this young lady.
The overbearing dragon is repentant move that Xu Que had used just now, and that large golden dragon had left everyone in shock.
In this ordinary world, who could possibly have imagined that one day they would actually see the fantastic martial arts that they’d seen on television series appear in real life. It had been so powerful and greatly challenged scientific concepts.
In the end, amid the shocked gazes and silence of all the onlookers, Xu Que and Xuanyuan Wanrong left, walking side by side.
The two of them walked toward the back entrance of the school, and Xuanyuan Wanrong stayed silent throughout.
Xu Que had wanted to say something. He’d intended to ask Xuanyuan Wanrong how this tribulation of love could be accomplished successfully. However, before he’d had the chance to open his mouth, he’d seen a luxury sports car stop at the back entrance of the school.
This sports car stopped near two girls. Xu Que found one of them very familiar.
“Lin Yuxi?”
He frowned slightly. He hadn’t expected that he would meet his past girlfriend, his super-crush, and the school belle.
“So is that the person that you like?” Xuanyuan Wanrong, who hadn’t spoken much, suddenly asked Xu Que a question.
She’d already known that Xu Que’s first sweetheart was named Lin Yuxi, and she also knew that the trip here was meant to make Xu Que have a change of heart so that they could pa.s.s the tribulation of love.
But this was the first time that she’d seen Lin Yuxi in person, and her looks were really outstanding. Although they couldn’t compare to hers, Lin Yuxi was still beautiful enough to stress Xuanyuan Wanrong out.
After all, the saying that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder was not groundless.
“I used to like her,” Xu Que responded lightly.
“…..” Xuanyuan Wanrong became suddenly speechless. She looked at Xu Que with some contempt.
“So quickly, it had become a matter of the past?”
“What about all his previous excitement? The kind of ecstatic joy that most people got from the first awakening of love? Why was it all gone?”
“He had become attracted to her so easily? Oh, what a jerk.”
Wait, something was not right…
Suddenly, Xuanyuan Wanrong seemed to realize something. If Xu Que had had a change of heart about Lin Yuxi, then he should have succeeded in pa.s.sing the tribulation. Why didn’t the tribulation of love end?
Was it possible that this tribulation of love also required her to have feelings for him? And only when the two parties loved each other, would it be pa.s.sed?
In an instant, Xuanyuan Wanrong realized that she was in a tough position. She gazed into the air and felt as if the heavens were toying with her by giving her such a difficult problem. Liking such a douchebag as Xu Que was really difficult.
…..
“Schoolmate Xia, I have already arranged to eat with my roommate. Maybe we can eat together some other time!” Lin Yuxi took her roommate’s hand and spoke to the person in the sports car with a wry smile.
There was no doubt that the person in the sports car was the Young Master of the Xia Family, who Xu Que had taken already revenge on back in the day: Xia Luoqing.
This was the first time that Xu Que had seen this scene.
In his memory, there had originally been no such scene, but the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi even recovered the things that he hadn’t known about. It allowed him to unexpectedly encounter this scene.
“So… On the day when I’d successfully confessed to Lin Yuxi, Xia Luoqing had also asked her out for a meal.” Xu Que stroked his chin and smiled slightly.
Back then, when he had been able to confess to Lin Yuxi, Lin Yuxi had been in her dormitory.
“Yuxi, you don’t need to be so guarded against me. I just ask that you give me a chance. It’s just a meal to let you get to know more about me, that’s all.” Xia Luoqing sat in the car and said with a face full of sincerity.
Many students had appeared and stayed standing around, watching this scene.
Lin Yuxi was in a bit of a difficult spot. She didn’t hate Xia Luoqing, but she didn’t have feelings for him. If they had been just ordinary friends, she could’ve accepted a meal. However, it was very obvious that Xia Luoqing was intending
to pursue her. Thus it wasn’t a good idea for her to accept. Even if it was just a meal, she was afraid that after agreeing, Xia Luoqing might get the wrong impression.
What was even more important was that she already had someone she liked in her heart. Although that guy’s family background was ordinary, he’d managed to take care of himself and had a soul that was eternally happy.
So…
“Sorry, Schoolmate Xia, I really…” Lin Yuxi shook her head and refused again.
But just before she’d finished speaking, her gaze happened to meet Xu Que’s, who had just walked out of the school gate. She saw Xuanyuan Wanrong next to Xu Que, and she suddenly froze.
