Heh, heh, heh,
Xuanyuan Wanrong laughed scornfully and stared at Xu Que, the coldness in her eyes seeming to threaten him.

Your request, that I won’t harm you, is that meant to humiliate me?
She shook her head and smiled bitterly.
Xu Que laughed lightly and made a carefree gesture,
I’m not that kind of person.


What kind of person are you?
Xuanyuan Wanrong’s bitter smile vanished, and her expression became serious.
You’re someone who is 200 years younger than I am, and yet you still dare to pretend to be my senior? This is evil, stupid, and childish.

As she spoke, her face was filled with disgust and she rose to her feet.


Xu Que touched his nose with an embarrassed gesture and said,
Don’t be too eager to scold me. I had good intentions. Let’s do this: I’ll ask you a question, and if it isn’t your grandfather who appears, but your parents who appear…


How dare you,
Xuanyuan Wanrong answered in a stern voice. A majestic death aura swirled out of her and exploded toward Xu Que.
PING!
A loud noise rang out. Xu Que’s whole body flew up in the air and slammed through the door of the inn, falling heavily on the street outside.
The entire street, which was paved with green stone slabs, cracked on the spot. Xu Que’s mouth filled with blood, and he looked at Xuanyuan Wanrong in shock.

I’m warning you, just because you have the Heavenly Book of Taiyi doesn’t mean you can be presumptuous to me,
Xuanyuan Wanrong said in a low voice as she slowly walked out of the inn, staring icily at Xu Que.
Following which, she threw a bottle of elixirs to him and made as if to leave.

Wait a minute,
Xu Que shouted.
Xuanyuan Wanrong paused and coldly turned around.
Xu Que had already stood up and wiped the dust off his body. Simultaneously, he’d shifted his state of mind and taken out the Firestorm Wheels from the System.


Once the Firestorm Wheels appeared, the two spirits inside started to move restlessly and soon they rushed out frenziedly and landed in front of Xuanyuan Wanrong.
Xuanyuan Wanrong’s facial expression changed. She took a step back, and, at the same time, raised her arm in preparation to attack.
But the next moment, her entire body froze.

This breath of blood…
she muttered in a low voice, her lips gently trembling, unable to believe the sight of the two spirits in front of her.

If I didn’t guess wrong, these two seniors are probably your parents. When I came upon them, my body had your replica, and they wrongly mistook it as you. Hence, they treated me as their child and wanted to follow me no matter what, so I could only keep them in my celestial artifact to protect them.

Xu Que calmly explained what had happened, gazing toward Xuanyuan Wanrong.
Xuanyuan Wanrong remained silent, as if she still had not recovered from the shock.
Xu Que continued,
I’ll lend you these Firestorm Wheels and this storage ring. Inside, there are enough Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines to sustain their spirits for 500 years.

After he’d finished speaking, Xu Que placed the storage ring and the Firestorm Wheels on the ground.

You…where did you find them?
Xuanyuan Wanrong finally spoke, and her voice trembled.



I found them in the Heaven Palace Academy, at the ancestral tomb on the mountain in back, which is also the address of the previous Heaven Palace ancestral tomb,
Xu Que said in a casual fashion as he got ready to leave.
But before taking two steps, he stopped again. With his back facing Xuanyuan Wanrong, he said,
Oh right. By the way, let me explain myself. Just now I pretended to be your grandfather only as a joke. I just wanted to let you have a slight buffer period so that this wouldn’t be too sudden.


Now that I have returned your parents’ spirits to you, we’re now even. We don’t
owe each other anything. I’m not in your Xuanyuan clan, so regarding the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, I’ll find a way to resolve this Hopefully, there won’t be any issues in the future, so let’s minimize our dealings with each other.


Take along the elixirs,
Xuanyuan Wanrong chirped, dipping her head to look at the elixirs on the ground.

No need.

Xu Que continued to walk forward. With a PA sound, his foot stepped on the elixir bottle, and the entire bottle split open. The elixirs inside were crushed.

You…
Xuanyuan Wanrong frowned, opening her mouth to say something.
Xu Que abruptly turned around and said coldly,
I already said, in the future, we won’t owe each other anything. You injured me just now, but I’ve acknowledged this already. After all, I made use of your parents’ spirits to kill others. Now I’ve paid it back to you, but…

Xu Que smiled, and coldness flickered in his eyes as he said,
From today onward, if you dare to touch me or the people around me even just a little, I won’t leave it alone. Trust me, even now, I have the capabilities to kill you. Don’t think that being a deity or a Celestial Emperor is something extraordinary.
As he spoke, Xu Que wiped away the blood from his mouth, turned around, and strode away.


Xuanyuan Wanrong followed his figure, eyes blazing. Eventually, she silently dipped her head and looked at the bottle with the crushed elixirs, feeling low.
After a few seconds, she picked up the Firestorm Wheels and the storage ring and took the two spirits of Xuanyuan Qishang and Guan Chuchu away, calmly returning to the inn.
That same day, Liu Jingning had received Xu Que’s message and left the inn.
Xuanyuan Wanrong sat alone in the study, quietly looking at the Firestorm Wheels. She’d tried to communicate with the two spirits, but to no avail.
Her expression was calm, and she lifted her head to look outside the window.
It was already evening. The sun setting in the west shone streaks of the setting sun on her exquisite face, illuminating the loneliness in her eyes.
…..
While this was happening, Xu Que rushed back alone to the abandoned Celestial Burial Valley in the East.
Even though the Celestial Burial Valley had already been offered up as a sacrifice and become a death trap, there was still a Void Interface Point that existed there.
Buttface had used this Void Interface Point once and unexpectedly come on the path of enlightenment and met up with Xu Que.


At this moment, a group of people were here, getting ready for a journey, preparing to leave from here to go back to the Heaven Continent.
Buttface was eager to go. After all, when Xu Que returned, he would’ve completed a Heavenly Tribulation. As a Disbanded Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, in addition to a holy body, he could compete with any Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven.
Buttface felt that the opportunity to return to the Heaven Continent to do whatever he wanted to do was about to come.
Duan Jiude was in low spirits, his face full of melancholy. Standing on the side, from time to time he looked with a resentful gaze at Xu Que, and then at Zixia Fairy, who was by Xu Que’s side. He shook his head and sighed.
The Eight-headed Serpent was also very agitated. Back in the olden days, he’d been abandoned at The Four Great Continents, and he’d thought that he would never see Xu Que again. Now he was reunited with Xu Que and the others, and they were about to go to a larger, more powerful continent, resulting in his feeling very excited.
As for the others from the Exploding Heavens Faction, they would naturally stay where they were. They were originally from The Four Great Continents and had a deep sense of belonging to the area, hence they were unwilling to leave. Now they’d all come to the Celestial Burial Valley just to bid Xu Que farewell.

Xu Faction Leader, in the future if there is time, remember to come back to visit us.


That’s right, we will definitely bring honor to the Exploding Heavens Faction.


While waiting for you to return, we’ll definitely show you the first big movement in The Four Great Continents. It will be from the Exploding Heavens Faction.

The crowd of people from the Exploding Heavens Faction reluctantly waved their hands in farewell.

Okay, the next time we return, we will drink endlessly,
Xu Que smiled and shouted to the crowd. His heart with filled with sorrow and regret, and, looking back on everything, he sighed.
Thinking about the first time he’d stepped into The Four Great Continents such a long time ago, who could have known that all these events would take place…

To be honest, I’ll miss this place. In comparison to the world outside, The Four Great Continents make me feel very safe and stable.

Liu Jingning, who stood by Xu Que’s side, said gently,
If not for you, I might’ve returned to the Five Elements Mountain and led a peaceful life.


Don’t worry, in the future, we’ll still come back, or…maybe we’ll have a quieter world.
Xu Que smiled to himself, thinking about the Chaotic Green Lotus in his Dantian.

Oh, right. What happened between you and Xuanyuan Wanrong in the inn just now? Why did she attack you? If you hadn’t asked us not to come out, I would’ve scolded her. You obviously saved her, and she still…
Liu Jingning raged at the unfairness.

Okay, don’t say anymore. This was also my fault. Letting her attack me was also a way of returning the favor for using her parents. From today onward, we owe each other nothing and will have no further connection,
Xu Que smiled calmly as he said.
Before today, he wouldn’t discriminate against Xuanyuan Wanrong. Even though he frequently joked about her, he never actually took any action. Xuanyuan Wanrong had also never done anything to him.
But today, Xuanyuan Wanrong had attacked him.
At that moment, Xu Que had found it difficult to forget that if it hadn’t been for his holy body, the blow from Xuanyuan Wanrogn would’ve killed him.
In that instant, Xu Que became clear-headed.
He knew that there was still a distance between his and Xuanyuan Wanrong’s skill levels, and he understood that Xuanyuan Wanrong wouldn’t treat him differently because he’d saved her.
At least, when he’d said the wrong thing, she would still fiercely attack without hesitation, as if fighting tiny individuals with no power, driving him off.
This touched a raw spot in Xu Que. Someone who would harm him at her convenience, and, afterwards pitifully throw out a bottle of elixirs, was not worth becoming friends with. Who cared how strong she was?
