Chapter 1168: This Old Man Is Too Excellent!

At this moment, Xu Que was sitting in the room, his face already filled with a full smile.

He stared at the golden-glowing Pantao in the system interface, his mood extremely joyful.

Yes, this was a Pantao, a Pantao pulled out from under the ground, glowing with golden light, exquisite and transparent, crystal clear, like a crystal, but it was indeed a genuine Pantao.

But this Pantao was not conceived from a Pantao tree. This was a Nine-Turn Pantao conceived from the essence of heaven and earth. Every ten thousand years was a turn. Like an animal shedding its skin, it had been conceived underground for ninety thousand years, absorbing the essence of the entire Pantao Garden for ninety thousand years, and finally took shape.

Xu Que believed that if this Pantao were given another ten thousand years, it would undergo a qualitative change, could undergo the tribulation and become a spirit, and finally transform into a peach immortal.

It was just a pity that its luck was bad. It had only just taken shape, becoming an immortal fruit, and before it had time to undergo the tribulation and become a spirit, it was dug out by Xu Que, cutting off all possibilities of becoming a spirit.

Simply put, for now, this Nine-Turn Pantao was a fruit comparable to an immortal pill, containing majestic Immortal Yuan, a treasure that could make countless cultivators go crazy!

"Tsk tsk tsk, this time I really made a big profit. Such a divine object is probably enough to support me all the way to the Heaven Immortal Stage!" Xu Que's eyes were already narrowed into slits with laughter.

Originally, he wanted to break through the peak of the Human Immortal Stage and step into the Earth Immortal Stage, at least he would need to soak in the Golden Branch Jade Liquid Pool for another year, but now, he believed that he only needed to bite a small mouthful of the Nine-Turn Pantao, and he could immediately break through the shackles of the Human Immortal Stage and welcome the Earth Immortal Stage.

However, Xu Que was not impulsive. He didn't want to rashly welcome the Heavenly Tribulation in Yaochi just to break through to the Earth Immortal Stage in a hurry. Not to mention exposing his identity, if that terrifying Heavenly Tribulation destroyed Yaochi, then Yaochi would probably not let him, Xu Que, go even if they had to endure shit and pee.

After all, Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude had already caused trouble before, and they used Xu Que's name to do it. If he really used the Heavenly Tribulation to bomb Yaochi again, then the relationship between the two sides might really become irreconcilable.

In the final analysis, Xu Que still had a good impression of Yaochi. At least this sect was quite good in all aspects, and it had once cultivated Jiang Hongyan. Now, he had obtained this Nine-Turn Pantao by chance, so it was really not suitable to scam them again.

Of course, the most critical thing was that this sect was full of female disciples, a group of cute and beautiful young ladies, how could he bear to scam them!

"Hmm, forget it, wait until I leave Yaochi tomorrow, then find a quiet place to undergo the tribulation and break through. After all, Yaochi's environment is not bad. Maybe I can use it as a sleeping palace in the future to complete the great wish of having three thousand beauties in the harem... eh, no, there are at least several tens of thousands of female disciples in Yaochi, so I have to change it to three thousand beauties in the harem!" Xu Que propped up his legs and began to fantasize triumphantly.

Soon, a night passed, and the sky gradually brightened!

Xu Que had been studying how to reasonably arrange taking the Nine-Turn Pantao all night. He would definitely eat the first bite, which could quickly break through to the early stage of the Earth Immortal Stage, but after that, he couldn't rely entirely on the Nine-Turn Pantao to forcibly break through the realm, because this would lead to his foundation not being solid enough to achieve the natural success of a solid foundation.

And the most critical thing was to guard against the Chaos Green Lotus in his body. Although it had completed its third growth and conceived a small world, it had been quiet for a long time, but this thing had to be guarded against, otherwise, if it had a fourth growth one day, I'm afraid there would be nothing left to satisfy its Immortal Yuan demand except for the Nine-Turn Pantao.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

At this time, the door was knocked gently.

"Elder Xu, are you rested? The Saintess and the deacons are all waiting for you in the council hall, please come over!" A female disciple stood outside the door and said softly.

Xu Que was stunned for a moment, because a female disciple had already notified him yesterday that he was going to the council hall today.

But the person who notified him today was not the female disciple from yesterday, and more importantly, the tone of this female disciple outside the door actually carried full awe.

What is the situation? Did I expose myself again?

Xu Que was stunned, knowing that Yaochi's female disciples were very polite to him before because they sympathized with him as an old man, and their speech was full of care for their elders, that was all. As for the tone of "awe," it was usually only used when facing experts and high-level people. How could they feel awe for an ailing old man who only had the Human Immortal Stage?

"Hmm, this old man is coming out!" Xu Que lowered his voice and headed toward the door.

Since he couldn't figure it out, there was no need to think about it. Anyway, the Holy Mother of Yaochi was not here. If he, Xu Que, wanted to run away, basically no one could stop him.

At the same time, in the council hall of Yaochi, the atmosphere was heavy.

Saintess Bai Cailing and several Yaochi deacons were sitting on chairs, looking at a female disciple solemnly.

That female disciple was the one responsible for guiding Xu Que yesterday. At this moment, she was confused and even a bit nervous, because the people present today were not just the Saintess and deacons of Yaochi. On the other side, there were also several men sitting, a young and handsome man and several peak Golden Immortal Stage guardians.

They had a very powerful background, the overlord of the Taiyin Immortal Domain—the Shennong Clan!

This clan was proficient in refining medicine and also controlled and planted countless spirit medicines. They possessed the largest spirit medicine garden in the Tianzhou Continent, and their influence was even greater than that of Yaochi today.

And the young and handsome man at the moment was the young prodigy of the Shennong Clan, Yi Zhong, and also one of the candidates for the Shennong Clan's God Son, with great hope of becoming the newest God Son. They came today to convey a message on behalf of the Yaochi Holy Mother, asking the people of Yaochi to prepare to relocate the Pantao Garden.

Generally speaking, for such a message, it would be fine to find any small character to come, but this young prodigy of the Shennong Clan, Yi Zhong, volunteered and ran over from the Taiyin Immortal Domain personally, actually just to have a chance to contact Bai Cailing.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Shennong Clan and Yaochi had always been on friendly terms, but with the rapid rise of the Shennong Clan, Yaochi had gradually fallen behind, and the relationship between the two sides was far less close than before, so the Yaochi Holy Mother once had the intention of marriage.

The younger generation of the Shennong Clan was naturally very willing. Not to mention that Bai Cailing was one of the best in terms of beauty among the Saintesses of the major forces in the Tianzhou Continent, once any of the candidates for the God Son of the Shennong Clan could win Bai Cailing's heart, it would be equivalent to being pre-determined as the God Son.

After all, the strength of the several candidates for the God Son was about the same, and if Bai Cailing wanted to marry, she had to marry the God Son as the Saintess, paying attention to the matching of status.

So Yi Zhong couldn't miss this opportunity and ran over directly, trying to spend more time with Bai Cailing to add a guarantee for his competition for the position of God Son.

However, these things had no great relationship with today's matter.

Yi Zhong conveyed the message for the Yaochi Holy Mother, and naturally also took the opportunity to stroll through the Pantao Garden. As a result, everyone was dumbfounded as soon as they entered.

In the huge Pantao Garden, thousands of Pantao trees should have been withered, but one of the Pantao trees was actually full of vitality, the whole body glowing with radiance, as if it had been brought back to life, restoring its past brilliance.

This immediately shocked everyone in Yaochi. After a series of inquiries, only two people had been to the Pantao Garden recently, Xu Que and the female disciple responsible for guiding him.

This immediately made the Saintess and several Yaochi deacons tighten their expressions.

They looked at each other, and after exchanging opinions, they sent someone to invite Xu Que. It was obvious that they had vaguely guessed that the revival of that Pantao tree was inseparable from Xu Que!

"Reporting to Saintess, all deacons, Elder Xu has been brought!"

At this time, two figures walked in from the door, and a female disciple brought Xu Que over.

Xu Que was still old and pale, leaning on a cane, walking tremblingly under the "intimate" support of the female disciple.

As soon as he entered the door, one of the deacons on the seat couldn't hold it anymore and asked: "Elder Xu, the matter of the Pantao Garden should be your doing, right?"

Xu Que was still walking inside, completely not expecting the other party to say such a sentence suddenly, which made his footsteps pause, and his heart skipped a beat, secretly saying it was not good.

Could it be that they had already discovered the matter of the Nine-Turn Pantao?

No, this must not be admitted even if beaten to death!

Immediately, Xu Que straightened his waist, raised his head, and looked at the crowd in Yaochi with a look of confusion: "The matter of the Pantao Garden? What's wrong, did something happen? Wait a minute, this old man has something to say, no matter what happened, it has nothing to do with this old man. This old man just went to watch the beautiful scenery!"

"Elder Xu, your words seem a bit like trying to cover up!" Deacon Lin on the seat smiled slightly, looking at Xu Que with burning eyes: "Elder Xu, it seems you are really not showing your true colors. That Pantao tree should be your doing, right?"

"Ah? What are you talking about? This old man really doesn't understand! This old man has always acted upright and dared to act, but I have never done things I haven't done, and I will absolutely not admit them." Xu Que said with a look of firmness, his eyes revealing a kind of unyielding strength!

But the more he was like this, the more everyone felt that he was noble. Not only did he do good deeds without leaving his name, but he even refused to admit it. Could it be that this was the eccentric habit of a master?

Bai Cailing watched this old man, feeling deeply moved in her heart.

It was hard to imagine how such a noble and righteous old man could have such a shameless son as Xu Que, which was really hard to understand!

"Elder Xu, don't misunderstand, we don't have any other meaning, we just want to thank you!"

At this time, Bai Cailing finally opened her mouth, smiling: "During this period, only you have entered the Pantao Garden, and that Pantao tree suddenly came back to life last night, glowing with vitality. We all know that it must be your doing."

Pantao tree came back to life? Could it be the one that was poured with Life Spirit Holy Water?

So that's it, so they wanted to thank me, damn, this Acting Cool Saint almost misunderstood!

"Sigh!"

Immediately, Xu Que looked at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, with a look of desolation and loneliness on his face, and sighed deeply: "Unintentionally struggling for spring, letting the flowers envy. This old man was targeted by countless enemies because I was too excellent back then. Now I am hiding my name and living in a humble way, just wanting to be a low-key person. Why do you still want to expose me?"
