Past history?

Upon hearing this, Xu Que was startled.
Why’d she suddenly want to talk about past history?


What exactly had Xuanyuan Wanrong learned about his past history?

Whether in his previous life on Earth or in his current life in the world of cultivators, Xu Que had always been an orphan, and, for this reason, he didn’t have any interest in stories of his past.
And so, at this moment, Xu Que looked at Xuanyuan Wanrong calmly and said with a smile,
What past history?



Xuanyuan Wanrong was surprised by Xu Que’s reaction, and she frowned as she spoke,
A little while ago, I said that your body had a strange aura. As a matter of fact, it’s a bloodline aura. It isn’t related to the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, but a real bloodline connection. You’re most likely a descendant of my Xuanyuan Clan.


Huh?

Xu Que was dumbfounded.
A Xuanyuan Clan descendant?


Darn it! This joke had gone too far!


I’ve always been in the ice coffin whenever I’ve seen you, and this is why I wasn’t able to sense your body. However, now that I’ve come out of the coffin, I’ve been able to detect a familiar bloodline aura on your body. It’s quite faint, but it definitely demonstrates that you are related to the Xuanyuan Clan,
Xuanyuan Wanrong said with a grave expression on her face.
Xu Que and Buttface exchanged a stealthy glance. They were on the verge of breaking out into laughter.
Xuanyuan Wanrong didn’t know what was going on, but wicked Buttface and Xu Que knew it clearly. The reason why Xuanyuan Wanrong had detected a faint bloodline aura on Xu Que was because of the two souls inside the Firestorm Wheels. She’d misunderstood where this faint aura had come from and assumed it came from Xu Que. This was why she had taken him for a descendant of the Xuanyuan Clan.
Xu Que found this misunderstanding quite interesting.
Xu Que’s expression changed promptly, and his face became filled with surprise.
What? Am I a descendant of the Xuanyuan Clan? How is this possible?


Is brother Que’s identity this amazing?
Buttface also joined in the fun, while wearing a shocked expression.


Xuanyuan Wanrong’s reaction stayed calm, but grave, as she said softly,
This is why we must discuss this issue concerning the Heavenly Book of Taiyi. We were appointed as partners by the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, and we are partners chosen by Heaven. However, if we’re both members of the Xuanyuan Clan, then this is a disgraceful matter that goes against social norms.


Huh? I don’t agree. After all, this is a union that was predestined by Heaven. So how can it be called a disgraceful matter against social norms?
Xu Que shook his head slowly.
Xuanyuan Wanrong frowned.
People connected by blood have a familial union. So this other is a disgraceful matter against social norms.

Xu Que opened his eyes wide.
Why do you care about what society thinks? It’s Heaven’s selection that is the most important.


…..
Xuanyuan Wanrong stopped talking and looked at Xu Que with a peculiar expression. She couldn’t accept his worldview.
Finally, Xu Que couldn’t keep up the act any longer, and so he quickly waved his hands and said,
I agree that what you’ve said is right. If news about this spread all around, it would really be disgraceful. What can I do about this? It’s you who took a fancy to me in the past.

After Xu Que finished speaking, he stroked his cheeks and sighed with emotion.
My mesmerizing features are the reason why you’ve committed such a grave sin.


Shut up!
Xuanyuan Wanrong finally got angry. She couldn’t bear Xu Que’s infuriating attitude. He’d always talk about his face any chance he got as if handsomeness was some extraordinary matter.

Brother Que, this is really very serious. If you and Xuanyuan Wanrong belong to the same clan, then you must follow the rules of seniority, and you should call Fairy Xuanyuan Ancestral Grandma.
Buttface seized his chance. He was afraid that the angry Xuanyuan Wanrong would beat him up.

Grandma, my ss! Do you think that I won’t beat you before she does?
Xu Que was aware of Buttface’s sly aims, and he glared at him while he spoke.


Buttface got out of the way quickly and smiled bitterly. He said,
Brother Que, don’t do this! We’re all civilized people, and you can talk about grandmas but not sses.


Fine, apparently we aren’t going to settle this matter quickly.

Xuanyuan Wanrong shook her head and sighed to herself.
She was already regretting what she’d done. She shouldn’t have written Xu Que’s name in the Heavenly Book of Taiyi. Now it was already too late, and the only thing she could do was come up with a way to get rid of the Heavenly Book of Taiyi’s restraints.

Rest at ease, everything’ll be all right. In addition, I’m not necessarily a member of the Clan. After all, my surname is Xu, and I’m a real member of the Xu family,
Xu Que reassured her.

You are probably a part of a branch that was formed by a descendant of the Xuanyuan Clan or a woman of my Xuanyuan Clan who married into your Xu family,
Xuanyuan Wanrong replied.

This is…forget about it! This isn’t a suitable time to discuss this and we must handle our proper business,
Xu Que shook his head and spoke. He knew the truth, but he couldn’t state it now. If he continued arguing with Xuanyuan Wanrong, there would be no end to this.
In addition, they didn’t have a lot of time left, only between two and four hours were left until midnight. At that time, the Celestial Burial Valley’s Worldly Furnace would start working, and he must prepare well to seize this chance.

Is this the location of the Worldly Furnace’s Spirit Core?
Xuanyuan Wanrong surveyed the surroundings, and her gaze fell upon the palace that sat upon the Spirit Core’s location. She squinted her eyes.
COUGH! COUGH!
That’s right!
Xu Que, who had a guilty conscience, nodded.



It seems as if you’ve already gone to the Heaven Continent,
Xuanyuan Wanrong said as she sized up Xu Que with a meaningful gaze.
This palace was one of her temporary residences from the Heaven Continent, and she had even put a clone there. This was why she recognized it.

Huh? Don’t look at me like that. It wasn’t me who stole the palace. There was a faction called the Sage Sect in the Heaven Continent, and they’d occupied your palace by force. When I saw this, I rushed over with no regard to danger to take it back for you, and I’ve even been hunted down by the Sage Sect because of this,
Xu Que explained, and the more he said, the more excited he became. He really felt that he’d been wronged!

That’s right, that’s right. Fairy Xuanyuan, what Brother Que said is the truth,
Buttface nodded repeatedly and responded.
However, it didn’t matter whether this was true or not because Xuanyuan Wanrong didn’t care about it.
Xuanyuan Wanrong looked at Xu Que and said,
It doesn’t matter to me whether you stole it or fought over it. It’s probably difficult for you to take this land’s fortune, and my palace’s sole function is helping you gather Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi.


I know, it’s enough for it to help gather Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi,
Xu Que answered as he smiled faintly.
Xuanyuan Wanrong shook her head.
You didn’t understand what I was implying. This land was prepared for a Celestial Prime advancement into the Celestial Emperor stage, and the Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi contained here is tremendous. Could someone at the Earth Celestial stage like you bear the brunt of this Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi?


It doesn’t matter whether I can bear it, and this is my own business,
Xu Que answered, looking at Xuanyuan Wanrong.
Could it be that you were also tempted by this fortune, and you want to break your promise and take it?


This fortune is quite tempting, but I have more than one way to become a Celestial Emperor. I don’t have to fight over a lucky chance with a little lad like you,
Xuanyuan Wanrong spoke in an ice-cold tone and her anger was apparent.


Xu Que had accused her of desiring to steal the fortune, and it seemed as if she found this accusation insulting.

Okay, it’s fine as long as you don’t steal it. As a matter of fact, you can set your mind at ease, as after I take this fortune, I’ll give you back the palace, which still has your clone in it. In addition, I may offer you a nice surprise in accordance with your performance,
Xu Que spoke and smiled.
He was aware that devouring this large an amount of Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi was dangerous, but sometimes the greater the danger, the greater the benefits.
He had some assurance that he would be able to devour this Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi.
After all, he had a second-rate Holy Physique!
This was a powerful physique that had existed since the dawn of time, and if it couldn’t bear even this amount of Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi, then wasn’t it just rubbish?

I still insist on what I said previously. I will immediately annihilate your fortune once I detect that your life is in danger,
Xuanyuan Wanrong spoke after keeping her silence for several seconds.
Soon after, she stood aside and waited with an indifferent look on her face.
Xu Que didn’t bother with saying anything else, and he cast a meaningful glance at Buttface before he strode into the palace.
There were innumerable enemies waiting for him in the Heaven Continent and he must take this fortune at any cost.
As Xu Que thought about this, he clenched his fists and his gaze turned grave. He took large strides and stepped resolutely into the palace.

Heaven Celestial, Golden Celestial, or even Taiyi Celestial. I’m coming.
