Chapter 35: Xu Que's Lofty Back

~8 min read 1,540 words

"Ding, congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully showing off, rewarding 60 Acting Cool Points!"

The system prompt sounded in his mind.

Xu Que's heroic words also moved the two women.

In fact, the two had heard plenty of such words of sacrificing their lives, but that was only because of their special identities!

But now, they knew very well that this black-robed person in front of them didn't know their true identities. Plus, this black-robed person had been compassionate to a blood python earlier, and the two were instantly conquered by Xu Que's spirit of helping others.

After all, this is a cold world where the strong are respected and profit is everything. Xu Que being able to say such words when two strange women were at the end of their rope and near despair was simply a clear stream in the cultivation world!

So at this moment, Zi Xuan and Princess Yan Yang not only developed a little good feeling for Xu Que in their hearts, but were also deeply touched and indescribable. If they had to summarize their inner thoughts in one sentence, it would be... there is true love in the world, there is true love in the world!

"Fellow Daoist's loyalty, this little girl will definitely keep it in mind forever. If we can go back alive, we will definitely repay you with a gushing spring!" Zi Xuan was quite moved and promised seriously.

Even Princess Yan Yang, with her cold and arrogant personality, couldn't help but say a word of "thanks" to Xu Que.

"You're welcome, my wish in this life is to do everything I can to help the world!"

Xu Que waved his hand and said lightly.

His eyes also looked up at the sky slightly again, his face full of depth, melancholy, and a thick temperament of showing off!

The two women's eyes condensed, and their hearts were greatly shocked!

What a man of high character, his conduct is so noble, he must be a true gentleman!

"Ding, congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully showing off forcefully, rewarding 30 Acting Cool Points!"

Xu Que was secretly happy in his heart. He had finally recovered the cost of the human skin mask...

However, he didn't take the rewards mentioned by the two women to heart at all. It wasn't that he was really that great, but that he didn't look down on the so-called rewards. Interactions between cultivators were nothing more than spirit medicines, dharma artifacts, or spirit stones, and Xu Que was not lacking in any of these three.

As long as he wanted them, he could just find some evil sect and rob them, and he didn't need others to give them to him at all.

Soon, the three of them set off and hurried out of the woods.

It was just that this combination was somewhat inexplicably strange. Xu Que used the human skin mask, and no one could recognize him.

But Princess Yan Yang had mud smeared on her face and was dressed as a village girl, and Xu Que didn't recognize her either.

After all, he didn't expect that a dignified Princess would be reduced to such a state, and the biggest reason was the cold and arrogant temperament of this Princess, which was completely different from the "Princess" who was like a little bird relying on others in his impression.

Therefore, the three of them simply started this escape journey.

Princess Yan Yang and Zi Xuan were still very nervous and uneasy in their hearts, fearing that the elite assassins of the Heavenly Fiend would suddenly appear. If it were one or two, it would be fine, and there would be a chance to escape if they fought. If three or four came out, the two would definitely despair on the spot.

Xu Que didn't care at all. As long as the Infant Transformation Stage didn't come, he could be completely carefree.

Thus, Xu Que carried the Xuanzhong Ruler on his back and walked in front with big strides, his momentum still as... cool!

Perhaps it was his extra 20 points of Charisma that played a role. When Zi Xuan and Princess Yan Yang looked at Xu Que's back, they inexplicably felt that this back was very lofty, as if it could bring them a great sense of security!

"Ding, congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully showing off invisibly, rewarding 50 Acting Cool Points!"

The system's prompt sounded abruptly in Xu Que's mind. Xu Que's mouth couldn't help but rise. He was already used to it, and this was the first harvest after recovering the cost of the human skin mask!

So now, Xu Que was actually very hoping that those assassins would come out quickly, so he could show off more.

"Roar!"

From the depths of the jungle, the roars of some demon beasts came from time to time. Clearly, those assassins were not foolproof, and would disturb some demon beasts to some extent.

Xu Que's brows raised, and he was about to rush to that place.

Zi Xuan hurriedly said: "Fellow Daoist, we can't go forward, let's take a detour!"

Xu Que was stunned for a moment, and smiled slightly: "Sorry, it was just a natural reaction. I thought there were demon beasts doing evil in front, so I subconsciously wanted to go and help!"

"Fellow Daoist is so heroic, it really makes this little girl admire you!" Zi Xuan smiled, and for the first time, she felt a good feeling for a strange man.

Princess Yan Yang remained silent and didn't say much.

Xu Que also directly ignored her and showed a humble smile to Zi Xuan: "Young lady, you are too kind. I'm just doing what I should do!"

"By the way, I don't know how to address you, Fellow Daoist?" Zi Xuan asked.

Xu Que cupped his hands in a salute: "I am Hua Wuque!"

In fact, he wanted to use another name, but in the martial arts novels of his previous life, there were only a few who could be called handsome men, such as Chu Liuxiang, Li Xunhuan, etc., but Xu Que didn't have time to think too much, so he blurted out Hua Wuque.

"Hua... Wuque?" Zi Xuan paused, as if she remembered something.

Princess Yan Yang's eyes also flashed with a hint of surprise, her eyes lifted slightly, and she couldn't help but glance at Xu Que.

"En, young lady, have you heard of my name?" Xu Que asked strangely.

Zi Xuan smiled and shook her head slightly: "No, it's just that there is a 'Que' character in your name, which reminds this little girl... En, a friend from before, he also had a 'Que' character in his name."

"So that's how it is." Xu Que nodded lightly and continued to walk forward, without any intention of asking for the names of the two women.

This also made Zi Xuan stunned for a while. She looked at Princess Yan Yang, secretly stuck out her little tongue, and smiled.

Princess Yan Yang also narrowed her eyes and didn't say anything more.

Putting aside their identities, both of them were definitely among the best in the Five Kingdoms in terms of beauty and temperament. They had been treated like stars holding the moon by countless geniuses, but now they were being ignored like this for the first time, and they couldn't help but feel a little strange in their hearts.

"Princess, this Young Hero Hua is truly not bad. If we can escape back, we can make friends with him. Hee hee, if you restore your appearance at that time, he will definitely be stunned by your peerless beauty." Zi Xuan leaned to Princess Yan Yang's side and whispered.

Princess Yan Yang glared at her angrily and didn't say a word.

It was just that for some reason, there seemed to be a little expectation in her heart.

This expectation was not that she really had such a good feeling for Xu Que, but that she was a little unwilling after being ignored, and wanted to see his surprised expression when she finally revealed her identity.

However, she should be glad that the two of them didn't wipe off the gray on their faces now. Otherwise, if Xu Que recognized Princess Yan Yang, he definitely wouldn't care about showing off, and a Xuanzhong Ruler would definitely be indispensable. Maybe he would even smash the Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus on them.

Before long, the night gradually fell.

Zi Xuan took the initiative to speak, asking Xu Que to stop and rest for a while.

After all, the two women had been running for a day, and their True Essence consumption was very large. Even with Golden Core Stage cultivation, they were a bit tired at this moment.

Xu Que wished he could stay in the woods for more time to find opportunities to show off, so he naturally agreed happily.

Thus, taking advantage of the two women sitting under the tree to meditate and rest, he ran to pick up some firewood, took out a few chicken wings left over from the day before yesterday, and was actually going to start preparing a barbecue! ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
