Chapter 1033

"Whoosh!"

On the ground, Liu Wenfeng's broken halberd suddenly flew up and was sucked into Xu Que's palm.

At this time, the people present finally came back to their senses, their gazes all gathering on Xu Que, full of horror.

In their eyes, Liu Wenfeng simply died under Xu Que's broken sword.

But in fact, Liu Wenfeng was hit by Xu Que's death aura, which turned the situation around, only then being chopped to death by a sword. Otherwise, with the power of this halberd, Xu Que really couldn't have taken him down so easily!

But now, the halberd was in hand, and Xu Que also immediately probed with his divine soul, wiped away Liu Wenfeng's divine sense remaining on it, and threw it into the system package with a flip of his hand!

At the same time, the storage rings of the several people on the ground were also completely taken away by Xu Que.

His skilled movements of cleaning up the battlefield and collecting the spoils made many people present's eyelids jump.

Clearly, this guy wasn't doing this for the first time!

But at this moment, Xu Que was not happy.

He had gone through so much trouble to act cool, harvesting over forty thousand points of pretentiousness, but after killing these several Human Immortal Realm initial stage experts, he didn't get a single point of experience.

At first, he was wondering if these people all possessed some life-saving skills, or were just avatars, but after killing them, he also confirmed that these people were the real bodies, but there really wasn't a single point of experience!

What was going on?

Did the system have a bug?

Xu Que frowned, not in a hurry to call out the system to ask, after all, the situation was not very optimistic. Among the onlookers, eight out of ten were eyeing him covetously, coveting the Vitality Rice and Immortal Artifacts on him.

If it weren't for the fact that he had just demonstrated such powerful lethality, I'm afraid this group of people would have swarmed up long ago and killed him.

"Heh, what kind of bullshit Sword Pavilion, can't even beat one person from my Exploding Heaven Gang!" Finally, Xu Que stepped out, looking at the several corpses on the ground with sarcasm, then ignored the gazes of the people present, gave Lan Xinyue a wink, and stepped into the inn.

Lan Xinyue reacted, hurriedly helped up Lan Hetu, and entered the inn with several young men and women who were also only at the Half-Immortal Realm.

Many cultivators watching on the street showed hesitation, and in the end, no one dared to attack first.

On one hand, they were afraid of Xu Que's strength, and on the other hand, because Xu Que just entered the inn and didn't leave, so they were not in a hurry to attack!

Xu Que also understood this point, so he didn't leave directly, but instead walked into the inn openly.

His current condition was not suitable for a hard battle with so many people. First of all, his internal injuries hadn't fully healed. Although the system's automatic recovery function was awesome, the speed wasn't as fast as he imagined.

Secondly, his broken sword had cracks, and if he encountered other powerful Immortal Artifacts, I'm afraid it would really be shattered, so he had to slow down.

Of course, the most important thing was the system.

In the past, he had killed Half-Immortal Realm and Human Immortal Realm experts and had always been able to gain experience points, but this time, after killing several Human Immortal Realm experts, he didn't get any experience points at all.

Xu Que suspected that something was wrong with the system. What if he went on a killing spree outside later and didn't get any experience points at all? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?

If there's a problem, it must be solved.

After Xu Que entered the inn, he immediately called out the system interface.

"System, come out, why don't you give me experience points? I demand compensation for all experience points, and compensation for my mental damage!" Xu Que shouted in his heart.

The system responded calmly: "Given that the host has entered the Half-Immortal Realm and left the novice range, the system's function of escorting the host has ended. Killing no longer gains experience points. Please cultivate diligently and rank among the immortals as soon as possible!"

"What? Killing no longer gains experience points? Damn, then what's the point of me killing people?" Xu Que's eyes widened instantly.

He had originally looked forward to coming to the Linxian Realm, besides looking for Jiang Hongyan and the others, partly because there were many experts here. With so many experts, there would always be a few blind ones coming to send their heads, which would all be full of experience points!

He even planned to rely on killing people to get experience within a few years, rush to the Heavenly Immortal or Golden Immortal Realm, and then dominate the Linxian Realm.

But he never expected that this most awesome function was actually gone?

"Damn, this is an unreasonable nerf. If you want to nerf, go nerf the Blade Girl or Miyamoto Musashi, why nerf me?" Xu Que was extremely dissatisfied. After getting used to flying-fast upgrades, it was really difficult to rely on his own cultivation.

This thing is like life; it's easy to go from frugal to luxurious, but difficult to go from luxurious to frugal!

"Before the host underwent the tribulation, the system had already issued a notification. Please check the system records!" the system replied faintly.

Xu Que immediately opened the system records, and sure enough, before he underwent the tribulation, the system had indeed issued a notification, but it had been ignored by him.

For so long, he had also been annoyed by the system's notification sounds, and most of the time, the notification sounds for gaining pretentiousness points and experience points were turned off, but he didn't expect to miss such an important piece of information.

But... even if he didn't miss it, there was no way!

Stepping into the Half-Immortal Realm was sooner or later; he couldn't just stay in the Four Great Continents forever to get experience, right?

After all, there were no more Half-Immortal Realm and Human Immortal Realm experts to kill in the Four Great Continents, and he only had the path of undergoing the tribulation left. There was no way to get stuck at the Great Vehicle Stage to brush experience infinitely!

"Sigh, forget it, forget it, cultivating by myself is fine. At worst, I'll just find more benefactors to beg from in the future!" Xu Que quickly chose to accept reality!

After all, he had also realized that the path of relying on killing people to gain experience points couldn't be walked forever!

Now, the experience points required for each level-up were simply too many. In the end, the time for leveling up might be about the same as his own cultivation.

But the experience points gained from killing people wouldn't lead to much progress in Dao Rhyme and divine soul, whereas cultivating and comprehending the Dao himself would lead to rapid progress in divine soul and Dao Rhyme, making them better compatible with himself and increasingly consolidated!

So after accepting the fact that killing people didn't gain experience, Xu Que calmed down in his heart and decided to walk a path of cultivation with a solid foundation.

As for the efficiency of this cultivation, he could only continue to kill in all directions.

In the past, he killed enemies for experience points and pretentiousness points, and he didn't look down on the other party's things at all.

Now that he killed enemies, he purely wanted pretentiousness points and the other party's things. As long as they were medicinal herbs and spirit crystals that could help with cultivation, he would want them, and as long as they were Immortal Artifacts that could improve his strength, he would also want them!

"Fellow Daoist Xu!"

"Fellow Daoist Xu, what's wrong with you?"

At this moment, a crisp voice came.

Xu Que came back to his senses, and only then discovered that Lan Xinyue, Lan Hetu, and several young men and women were all standing in front of him, looking at him curiously.

Xu Que shook his head immediately: "Nothing, I just have a question I can't figure out!"

"Oh? What is Fellow Daoist Xu worried about?" Lan Xinyue asked immediately.

Xu Que had helped her so much, and she had always wanted to find an opportunity to repay him.

"Sigh!" Xu Que sighed immediately: "Lonely, empty, and cold!"

"Ah?" Lan Xinyue was startled instantly.

"Nothing, I just can't figure out why there are always people who want to fight me to the death. Am I really so handsome that it's intolerable?" Xu Que said with a worried face.

The few people present instantly had black lines on their heads.

There are always people who want to fight you to the death?

Doesn't this seem a bit wrong?

Just now, Liu Wenfeng was about to admit defeat and leave, and in the end, wasn't it you who called him back and rushed up to kill him?

This has absolutely nothing to do with being handsome or not, okay?

"Uh..." At this moment, Lan Xinyue also smiled awkwardly, bowed her hands and said: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Xu, for your righteous rescue this time. I don't know how to thank you. If Fellow Daoist Xu needs any help in the future, I, Lan Xinyue, will definitely do my best to help!"

"It's okay, it's okay, these are all small things! By the way, Fellow Daoist Lan, help me find a room to stay first. Although I don't mind living under the same roof and sleeping in the same bed with you, I am ultimately just a pure child. If this matter spreads out, I'm afraid it will have a bad influence!" Xu Que waved his hand and said very seriously.

Lan Xinyue and the others were instantly stunned.

Lan Hetu widened his eyes even more, almost jumping up to beat Xu Que to death.

Is that how you talk?

What do you mean you don't mind living under the same roof and sleeping in the same bed? You really have a beautiful imagination!

You're a pure child like this? I haven't even said that my sister is a true maiden!

"Fellow Daoist Xu, please wait a moment, I'll go prepare it!" At this moment, Lan Xinyue smiled slightly and said, not minding Xu Que's words.

This is a world where strength is respected; how a strong person speaks is the freedom of a strong person!

But Lan Xinyue also knew that although Xu Que spoke with a rogue air and liked to take advantage shamelessly, he had no malice at all. Otherwise, with Xu Que's strength, if he really wanted to, he could have forcibly taken her down long ago.

Finally, Lan Xinyue quickly handled everything, prepared a top-grade luxury room for Xu Que, and personally sent him to the door of the room.

Xu Que was the kind of person who would treat others well if they treated him well. As soon as he entered the room, he immediately enthusiastically invited Lan Xinyue and the others to sit down and drink tea.

Lan Xinyue and the others couldn't refuse, so they all sat down.

As a result, after sitting down, Xu Que just threw out a sentence "Treat it like your own home, don't be polite" and then didn't move on the chair at all, having no intention of pouring tea to treat them.

Of course, Lan Xinyue and the others didn't dare to really let Xu Que pour tea, so they immediately started doing it themselves, boiling water and pouring tea, all in one go.

"Whoosh!"

Just at this moment, Xu Que suddenly waved his hand, took out a stick, and played with it with a smiling face!

"What a peerless Immortal Stick!"
