Chapter 520: I'm Not Acting Cool Anymore!

~10 min read 1,817 words

Li Bai of the Exploding Heaven Gang?

Master is Teacher Jie Yi?

Xu Que's self-introduction made everyone present pause for a moment.

Because this name was too strange; no one had ever heard of any Exploding Heaven Gang, and no one had ever heard of any Teacher Jie Yi!

After all, in the Eastern Wasteland Continent, only those with famous teachers would report their master's name; otherwise, they wouldn't mention it easily.

So, several people immediately judged that this youth named Li Bai was a naive genius who had just stepped into the secular world for training. Coupled with his gentle and elegant side, it made several people feel that this guy was too green.

However, Gong Yue stared at Xu Que and said, "I ask you, why do you have the aura of a Gong family disciple on you? It appears and disappears!"

She was very strange. Generally speaking, this kind of aura was something only their Gong family's direct descendants would possess. But if an outsider possessed this aura, it meant they had killed a direct descendant of their Gong family!

But this aura was too weak, appearing and disappearing. If he had killed a Gong family direct descendant, there was no reason for the aura to be so weak, and there had been no news of any brothers or sisters being killed in the clan recently, so she didn't attack immediately, but still stopped to interrogate Xu Que.

However, when Xu Que heard "Gong family disciple," he immediately thought it was bad.

Of course, he knew what was going on with the aura on his body. After killing Gong Feng a few days ago, when he investigated the storage ring, a red light rushed toward him, which was dispersed by Er Gouzi, but a small wisp still entered his body, turning into a very weak aura.

Er Gouzi said this was a mark, proving it was the killer's mark, but the sensing range was very small, and it basically had no effect.

Xu Que had forgotten about this, but he didn't expect to encounter the Gong family so coincidentally today, and to have such a close contact, so it was normal to be discovered.

"Young lady, I am a scholar, but I don't quite understand what you mean!" Xu Que began to play dumb, with an innocent look, looking like an innocent youth.

Gong Yue's gaze was aggressive, and she frowned, "Have you been in contact with someone from my Gong family recently?"

"No, I just came down from the sect for training, took the teleportation array all the way to the Ming Yue Pavilion, and didn't meet anyone from the Gong family. Oh, right, right, I saw a very ugly old beggar on the way, I rewarded him with some spirit stones, and he was so excited he shook hands with me!" Xu Que said.

"An old beggar?" Gong Yue couldn't help but be confused.

But the next moment, the expressions of several people changed.

Especially Gong Yue, who was instantly furious and shouted sternly, "How bold, you dare to insult my Gong family?"

She had just asked Xu Que if he had been in contact with someone from the Gong family, and Xu Que said no, but then said he shook hands with an ugly old beggar. Wasn't this implying that the old beggar was from the Gong family?

The Gong family was a prestigious family; how could there be a beggar? If this wasn't an insult, what was?

Gong Yue's stern shout also immediately attracted the attention of the other geniuses in the Ming Yue Pavilion.

This was a gathering place for geniuses, with many geniuses gathered here, some drinking and feasting, some making friends, and some trading here.

Gong Yue's status was extraordinary, and with her cultivation at the ninth level of the Infant Transformation Stage, she was also a famous existence among geniuses.

Her sudden stern shout immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all focused on them, wanting to see who the unlucky guy was who had actually provoked the genius girl of the Gong family!

"Yo, it seems to be that youth at the fourth level of the Infant Transformation Stage. How did he provoke Gong Yue?"

"Haha, this guy is done for!"

"Provoking Gong Yue is equivalent to provoking the Gong family and the Jiang family!"

"Can only blame this kid for his bad luck. Jiang Shan of the Jiang family is also at the Ming Yue Pavilion today, and Gong Yue has been very close to him recently. He is one of the candidates for the future Saint Son of the Jiang family!"

Many geniuses in the lobby discussed it, full of schadenfreude, looking like they wanted to watch the show.

Xu Que was very calm, but he was also speechless in his heart. Originally, he didn't want to cause trouble, and intended to investigate the Empress's whereabouts before finding her, but he didn't expect so many troubles today.

He had only arrived in the Eastern Wasteland for the first day, first encountering three Void Refinement Stage women, and after finally shaking them off, he encountered some Han Guoqiang on the street, and now he had directly bumped into people from the Gong family and the Jiang family.

Too evil, today's luck is wrong!

Xu Que couldn't help but frown.

"You just said what your name was, Li something? Do you know who we are?" At this moment, a man at the sixth level of the Infant Transformation Stage walked out and looked at Xu Que mockingly.

Xu Que decided to continue playing dumb, scratched his head, and said with a confused look, "Who are you?"

"Heh, you don't even know who we are, and you dare to be presumptuous in the Ming Yue Pavilion?" The man at the sixth level of the Infant Transformation Stage suddenly sneered.

Several people beside him also stared at Xu Que indifferently.

Only the man at the tenth level of the Infant Transformation Stage, Jiang Shan, swept a cold glance at Xu Que and didn't look at him again, his gaze falling on Gong Yue, "Xiao Yue, let's go in first!"

Gong Yue nodded, without any hesitation, and turned to follow Jiang Shan.

At this time, Jiang Shan turned his back to Xu Que and the others, and said indifferently, "Fighting is prohibited in the Ming Yue Pavilion. Throw him out first, then kill him. Keep it clean, don't dirty the place!"

As the words fell, the man at the sixth level of the Infant Transformation Stage and several other people at the seventh level of the Infant Transformation Stage responded with a "Yes" at the same time, staring at Xu Que with smiles, full of playfulness.

Clearly, Jiang Shan was not only powerful in cultivation, but also had high prestige among the few, and several people followed his words without any hesitation.

Gong Yue was like this, and the others were also like this.

Xu Que's face also sank. He originally didn't want to cause trouble, but these people were too arrogant, especially that Jiang Shan, who was simply acting cool to the extreme, which made Xu Que very annoyed.

It was just that Xu Que didn't break out, but instead showed fear, "terrified," and said, "No! I am a scholar, I haven't provoked you!"

If he wanted to kill these people, he had to use some acting skills to confuse the other party, lower their vigilance, and then break them one by one.

Jiang Shan clearly didn't want to do it himself, so he sent a few people at the sixth or seventh level of the Infant Transformation Stage to deal with Xu Que.

This was exactly what Xu Que wanted. If these people joined forces, Xu Que would definitely only be able to fight once and run.

But if they were separated, Xu Que would have nothing to fear.

It was just that the acting still had to be done well, first pretend to be timid, and after going out, kill a few of these people at the sixth or seventh level of the Infant Transformation Stage, and then come back to settle the score with Jiang Shan and Gong Yue.

"Haha, a spineless coward!" Several people at the sixth or seventh level of the Infant Transformation Stage laughed loudly.

"With this kind of person, is he still qualified to be a genius?"

"No fun! I thought there would be a good show to watch, but it turned out to be just a coward at the fourth level of the Infant Transformation Stage!" The geniuses in the lobby who intended to watch the show also shook their heads and mocked, losing interest.

"I... I'll take my leave first!" At this moment, Xu Que pretended to be very scared, hurriedly turned around, and wanted to leave the Ming Yue Pavilion.

He had to lure these people out to have a chance to suppress and kill them.

And his running away also suited the wishes of several geniuses at the sixth or seventh level of the Infant Transformation Stage, after all, fighting was prohibited in the Ming Yue Pavilion, and they also wanted Xu Que to go out so they could kill him.

But just as Xu Que was about to step out of the Ming Yue Pavilion, a group of guards suddenly appeared at the door.

The leader was a guard captain at the sixth level of the Infant Transformation Stage, his face gloomy, and he shouted, "Who is Li Bai, get out here, Han Guosheng!"

*Whoosh! *

In an instant, the whole place was silent.

Many geniuses were stunned, and even the few people who wanted to kill Xu Que were stunned.

Li Bai?

Wasn't that the coward at the door?

How did he provoke the captain of the Tianluo City Guard?

"Brother, it's him! He is Li Bai, he beat me in the street, spat saliva all over me, and forced me to change my name!" At this moment, a man with a bruised and swollen face, nearly disfigured, emerged from behind Han Guosheng and pointed at Xu Que.

Everyone in the audience was stunned again.

Li Bai?

Beating Han Guosheng's brother in the street, spitting saliva all over him, and forcing people to change their names?

No, this doesn't look like something a coward would do, right?

Xu Que himself was also dumbfounded. Why did everything happen to him today? This was too unlucky, right?

"You are Li Bai?" Han Guosheng's eyes instantly swept toward Xu Que, full of murderous intent.

"Bai your mother, bah!"

Xu Que spat a mouthful of water directly onto Han Guosheng, followed by his body suddenly retreating violently. He grabbed a Xuanzhong Ruler in his hand and shouted at the geniuses behind him, "Grass your mother, I'm not acting cool anymore, all of you come here, I want to fight ten!"
