Bang!
Xu Que hit Han Guoqiang with his Darky Heavy Buster Sword. The young man fell to the ground. Blood was oozing from his forehead.
Everyone was shocked by Xu Que’s speed and strength, including Han Guoqiang. They were also surprised at his sudden anger.
No one had thought that Xu Que would strike the man with the white jades just because he heard that his name was Han Guoqiang. No one had expected such an intense attack either.
He’s at the fourth level of the Infant Transformation Stage?! How can this be possible? Han Guoqiang thought.
Obviously, Xu Que’s limited experiences with individuals from overseas had caused him to overestimate the strength of the people here.
Before coming to the Eastern Continent, Xu Que fought with individuals from the Sea Tribe as well as from the Gong Family. These individuals were all from overseas and were all in the Infant Transformation Stage. If Xu Que had not possessed any Star Rank incantations, he would not have been able to win against them.
When Xu Que first stepped foot on the Eastern Continent, he ran into three women in the Void Training stage and had to run away from them. Since escaping these three women, he had been extremely cautious. Now, Xu Que realized that there was no need to be so careful. Not everyone on the Eastern Continent was immensely powerful. The overseas area was made up of the powerful and the weak, the talented and the ordinary.
Still, the Spiritual Qi was more abundant here than in Five Element Mountain. There were also more resources and treasures here. This is why the strong cultivators here were more powerful than any of the cultivators on Five Element Mountain.
Each of the young, rich men, including Han Guoqiang, were only at the ninth level of the Original Infant Stage.
Clearly, these young men all come from influential families. However, they are still only in the Original Infant Stage. They may be at the highest level, but they are still just in the Original Infant Stage.
I’m not afraid of these guys at all! When I was reborn into this world, I was at the Qi Refining Stage. Despite this, I willingly confronted someone at the Original Infant Stage. Then, when I was at the Foundation Building Stage, I killed someone at the Golden Core Stage. Finally, when I was at the Core Bearing Stage, I defeated someone who was at the Infant Transformation Stage!
I am a master at acting tough! The key is to never forget your original intention. This is the most important thing to remember if you want to act tough. So far, I have always been able to act tough. I will stick to what I know and be confident in myself!
Xu Que decided to take this opportunity to build up the reputation of the Exploding Heavens Faction here in Tian Luo City. To do this, he needed to act as harsh as he possibly could.
A smile grew on Xu Que’s face as his confidence returned.
Bang!
He stepped on Han Guoqiang’s face.
Xu Que was aware that the Water Empress had urged him to stay out of trouble while on the East Continent. He had tried to follow her advice, but he was convinced that lying low would no longer do him any good. He was done with staying out of trouble. No matter how modest and polite he was, someone always ended up picking a fight with him.
Asking me to stay out of trouble? What a laugh.
“Who…who are you?!” Han Guoqiang asked, gasping in pain.
Han Guoqiang knew that he was in big trouble this time. Before Xu Que had attacked him, he thought that Xu Que was just an ordinary cultivator. He had not expected Xu Que to be an elite at the Infant Transformation Stage.
In the Eastern Continent, anyone who reached the Infant Transformation Stage before they turned thirty was considered an elite. Anyone who reached the Void Training Stage before they turned two hundred was considered a holy son or a holy daughter. Usually, no one dared to offend elites, holy sons, or holy daughters, for these individuals usually came from influential families.
By provoking an elite, Han Guoqiang realized that he was now in deep sh*t. He was rather worried about what Xu Que would do to him. Han Guoqiang’s peers shared his fears and did not dare to confront Xu Que.
“I am Li Bai. I come from the Exploding Heavens Faction, and I am a scholar,” Xu Que sneered.
The young men were all confused.
Exploding Heavens Faction?
What on earth is the Exploding Heavens Faction? Why have I never heard of it before?
He must be joking! He must also come from a rich family. I have heard that there are some elites who dress like normal cultivators and pick fights with others. They pretend to be very weak, but when the fight starts, they reveal their true strength. What an annoying tactic!
Recalling these rumors, Han Guoqiang and his peers were convinced that Xue Que must be one of the elites.
“My father, Han Yi, is the lieutenant castellan of Tian Luo City and my brother, Han Guosheng, is the captain of the national guard here! You should think twice before doing anything to me!” Han Guoqiang said.
Han Guoquang hoped that if he told Xu Que how influential his family was, Xu Que might let him go. However, after learning that Han Guoqiang had a brother named Han Guosheng, Xu Que grew angrier.
Bang!
Xu Que stepped on Han Guoqiang’s face again.
“So you have a brother named Han Guosheng, do you?!”
Bang!
“What a f*cking ridiculous name!”
Bang!
“Tell your brother come to see me!”
Xu Que had stepped on Han Guoqiang’s face four times now. Han Guoqiang almost fainted because of the pain.
Is he really hitting me simply because of the sound of our names? No, that can’t be it. He demanded to see my brother… Can it be possible that my brother has fought with this guy before? That must be it! This guy has come to take his revenge on my brother!
“If you want to see my brother, then why are you hitting me?!” Han Guoqiang asked, furious.
If he really is an enemy of my brother, that means that his family must be as influential as ours. He wouldn’t dare to kill me.
“How dare you talk back to me! b.u.t.tface!” Xu Que yelled.
“What? Why did you call my name all of a sudden?” b.u.t.tface asked.
“Tell me, b.u.t.tface, if you were me, what would you do to someone who dared to talk back to you?” Xu Que sneered.
b.u.t.tface didn’t want to be dragged into this d*mn business. b.u.t.tface took a few steps backward.
“Young man,” b.u.t.tface started, addressing Han Guoqiang, “if you know what’s good for you, you should behave yourself. Don’t talk back.”
“b.u.t.tface, don’t be so feeble! You said earlier that you wanted to beat him up! So why don’t you go on and teach this guy a lesson by using the same method as you have in the past!?” Xu Que shouted.
“Really?” b.u.t.tface asked, excited.
“Yes!”
“Haha! This is wonderful!”
