Chapter 1543: Long Time, No See, b.u.t.tface

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

At first Xu Que was very shocked, but then he felt an inexplicable sense of joy and happiness.

He’d never thought that he would meet b.u.t.tface in this memory world of Xuanyuan Wanrong.

Even though the old idiot had told him that he’d lived for many lifetimes, he was now in the Heaven Palace Sect at a time thousands of years ago. Furthermore, the world of the Heaven Continent where they were was so huge that Xu Que couldn’t even imagine that it would have been possible that he would be able to meet b.u.t.tface here.

But coincidentally, he’d now heard b.u.t.tface being besieged by the people from the Heaven Palace Sect right at the foot of the mountain. This is going to be fun!

“Heh, heh, heh, this is very interesting…”

Suddenly, Xu Que laughed and turned invisible. Using the Walk of Yu, he instantly transformed into a shadow and made his way toward the scene swiftly.

Soon he came upon a large tree, where he stopped in his tracks.

The battleground in front of him was extremely chaotic. Xu Que squinted to take a closer look so that he could figure out what was going on. Finally, he was able to see clearly the faces of all those engaged in the fight.

Judging by their appearances, most of the fighters seemed to be young disciples of the Heaven Palace Sect. Despite their young age, they had all reached the Celestial King cultivation stage. The disciples were all clad in black-and-green robes embroidered with the Heaven Palace Sect’s logo. They were engaged in attacking a fire Kylin.

Xu Que was stupefied.

“Where was b.u.t.tface?”

In the next instant, he understood what was going on.

Xu Que had figured out b.u.t.tface’s story. Thousands of years ago, b.u.t.tface had yet to become a dog. He was a Kylin then, and he even set up the Mighty Sect in the Four Great Continents, transforming himself into the Kylin Patriarch.

Although his looks had changed, his manner of speech and the way he fought had not changed one bit.

As a Kylin, b.u.t.tface had great physical strength, innate divine power, and the ability to control fire. In spite of all these amazing powers, he still fought in just as cowardly a manner as he later had as a dog, scurrying about with his head in his hands and spitting at the Heaven Palace Sect’s disciples from time to time. Also, whenever he found the chance, he would kick one of them in the groin.

On witnessing this scene, Xu Que couldn’t stop shaking his head.

Those disciples of the Celestial King cultivation stage were most likely the elite disciples of the Heaven Palace Sect, judging by their attire. Despite their extraordinary capabilities, it was apparent that they couldn’t take b.u.t.tface down, even though they outnumbered him by a lot and they had the use of so many magic spells.

“Hee, hee, hee, who cares? Since I’m already here, let me help you out.” Xu Que snickered to himself and summoned the System interface once more.

While the fighting continued, Xu Que got out his spell disk and cast a few obliterating spells throughout the surroundings.

BOOM!

As soon as the first spell was cast, it triggered a tremendous wave of celestial core power. Although the wave only lasted for a split second, the disciples and b.u.t.tface all felt it at the same time.

“A spell?”

“What insolence! Who’s there?”

The disciples of the Heaven Palace Sect instantly stood apart from b.u.t.tface, as they stopped the fight temporarily and started shouting at their surroundings.

b.u.t.tface opened his eyes wide, scanning his surroundings furtively. However, he didn’t care who’d secretly cast spells here. Instead, he was looking for an opportunity to flee.

Seeing that the spell had been cast successfully, Xu Que decided that there was no longer any reason for him to hide himself. He reverted to his true form and emerged, dressed in a black robe and carrying his Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod.

“I am Xu Que, from the Exploding Heavens Faction. Fellow cultivators from the Heaven Palace Sect, there are so many of you ganging up against one person here. That doesn’t seem right.” Xu Que expostulated with a slight smile and the diction of a pro.

“Scoundrel, you are within the boundaries of the Heaven Palace Sect. What business is it of yours that we’re trying to seize this villain?” One of the disciples shouted at Xu Que, all the time pointing a finger at him.

“It is very much a business of mine,” Xu Que said with a bright smile. “This b.u.t.tface and I…oh no, this Mighty King, who has an extraordinary temperament, and I have an affinity. I am full of regret that I didn’t know him earlier. It wasn’t possible for me to just stand by, watching as all of you ganged up against him. Why don’t you show me some respect and let him go?”

“F*ck!” With surprise written all over his face, b.u.t.tface exclaimed, “Fellow cultivator, you have great taste.”

“He’s definitely asking for it!”

Without a moment’s hesitation, the disciples from the Heaven Palace Sect exchanged cold glances and two of them immediately decided to attack Xu Que.

They thought that it was extremely laughable that any cultivator of the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven stage had the audacity to talk about respect in their presence.

As usual, Xu Que had a smile on his face. With two powerful Celestial King cultivators attacking him simultaneously, he naturally had no way to take them down head on. Hence, he moved back, retreating hundreds of yards instantly.

At the same time, Xu Que raised one of his arms and made a strong motion with his palm.

KABOOM!

The Great Palm Print of the Netherworld was about to make its appearance once again.

The vault of heaven was once again covered by an enormous shadow. The completely black palm print materialized in the sky and began to collapse on the disciples of the Heaven Palace Sect.

Xu Que had added the strength of a few obliterating spells, and thus the might of the Great Palm Print was multiplied. There was a majestic air about it, and it was extraordinarily turbulent.

“What?”

“How is this possible?”

The faces of the disciples of the Heaven Palace Sect looked dumbfounded.

The power of this celestial art was far beyond their imaginations. How could a cultivator of the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven stage display celestial art of this might?

“Impressive, impressive, brother. F*ck them all!” b.u.t.tface was hysterical. He was hollering and cheering Xu Que on.

At the same time, he remained very agile. While the disciples of the Heaven Palace Sect had been stunned by Xu Que for a moment, he instantly found the chance to take to his heels. In a flash, he had already made his way into the depths of the forest.

“F*ck…” Xu Que swore to himself.

Even though he’d long known about b.u.t.tface’s shameless nature, he didn’t realize that this idiot would be just as shameless in his previous life and would have had the cheek to leave with no thank yous and not a moment’s notice… No, wait. To be exact, this idiot hadn’t given any previous notice. He’d left without a single word. Clearly, he had no sense of morality.

KABOOM!

Just then, a deafening noise resounded from the sky.

The golden flash of a sword cut across the sky. Xu Que’s Great Palm Print of the Netherworld, which had materialized and covered the sky, had been destroyed by that flash in mid-air.

“This is the Heaven and Earth Suppression Sword.”

“Senior Xuanyuan!”

All of the Heaven Palace Sect disciples cried out in terror.

Xu Que was shocked too. Upon searching with his soul sense, he discovered that Xuanyuan Wanrong’s presence was indeed approaching at an incredible speed.

F*ck, this woman is everywhere!

SWOOs.h.!.+

Without a moment’s hesitation, he instantly pulled out a Celestial-Grade Escape Emblem. With a shake of his body, he immediately became a blur on the spot.

“That’s not good: stop him!” One of the Heaven Palace Sect disciples yelled after him. At the same time, he got out some magic in an attempt to stop Xu Que, but, alas, he was a step too late.

At the last second, Xu Que succeeded in not being brought down by the disciples of the Heaven Palace Sect and made his escape.

In a fight against a few Celestial King cultivators from the Heaven Palace Sect, Xu Que had no chance of winning. Furthermore, with Xuanyuan Wanrong here now, he would’ve died if he hadn’t made his move.

…..

While all of this was happening, in the depths of the forest, b.u.t.tface, who was in his Kylin form, was das.h.i.+ng wildly away as fast as he could. He was running in the direction of the back area of the Heaven Palace Sect.

“D*mn it, thankfully I was witty enough to escape this time. Hee, hee, hee, never in their wildest dreams would they ever guess that I was going to rob their treasure trove again right now.”

b.u.t.tface cackled as he ran, before expressing, with a face full of regret shortly after, “Oh dear, what a shame! That young man just now, the rod he had with him is clearly no ordinary item. I should have gotten my hands on it before I ran away.”

“b.u.t.tface, is this the rod you were referring to?” All of a sudden, cold laughter rang out.

Following the bizarre laughter, ripples surfaced in the empty s.p.a.ce in front of b.u.t.tface and the Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod poked out of it.

“F*ck!” b.u.t.tface had been running at full speed now, not stopping even for a moment, and his face came right up in front of the rod all at once.

Shortly after, only a THUMP could be heard as b.u.t.tface, not sent flying, instead, stood rooted to the ground by the force of the rod.

“F*ck me!”

Practically at the same time, Xu Que’s cursing voice could be heard coming from the void behind the rod.

With quick strides, he stepped out of the void. His body materialized, and in his hands he held the Tough-Acting King’s Purple Gold Rod and an intimidating look on his face.

Motherf*cker! b.u.t.tface’s body in his past life had actually been so st.u.r.dy that he’d made my hands. the hands of an Act-Tough Saint, numb.

“Hmm? Fellow cultivator, you’ve escaped too? That’s a matter worth celebrating. Your Holiness’s admiration toward you is akin to a surging river that knows no bounds…”

b.u.t.tface saw Xu Que’s face clearly, and he immediately rejoiced. He even made a gesture to congratulate Xu Que.

Xu Que rolled his eyes and opened his mouth as he thought of what to say next.

Suddenly, b.u.t.tface grabbed onto the Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod and held it to his chest. At the same time, he unleashed a shocking strength as he was about to turn and make a run for it.

“D*mn it!” Xu Que hollered right away. “I f*cking knew you would try to steal this. You’re done for!”

As soon as he’d finished speaking the Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod that b.u.t.tface had cradled in his arms disintegrated into molten gold and revolved all around him before finally settling around his neck. It became a Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Collar, which started to tighten around b.u.t.tface’s neck.

OOWW! b.u.t.tface was startled by this sudden change where he was being strangled. He only managed to let out a short cry before he collapsed to the ground.

“Long time, no see, b.u.t.tface… Oh wait, you’re still called the Mighty King!”

Just then, Xu Que sashayed over with the brightest, most innocent smile on his face and looked down at b.u.t.tface.

b.u.t.tface had had lots of social experiences. However, upon seeing this smile of Xu Que’s, he instantly shuddered.

D*mn it, Your Holiness has truly encountered a callous person this time.
