Chapter 559

Xu Que was a bit bewildered.

He knew Er Gouzi was a dog with an extraordinary background, and it was even possible that it was truly a descendant of an ancient Demon Dragon.

But these were all things Er Gouzi boasted about itself, making them very difficult to verify. Furthermore, Er Gouzi had never displayed any exceptional talent to this day; at most, its physical body was outrageously tough, and it might understand a bit about arrays. Other than that, it really didn't seem to have anything else.

But why would these people suddenly set their sights on Er Gouzi and actually propose to buy it away? Could it be that they had discerned Er Gouzi's origin?

Xu Que looked suspiciously at Jiang Yushu, and before he could even open his mouth to speak, Er Gouzi flew into a rage first.

"Damn it, what the hell are you people! You aren't even qualified to be human pets for this Divine Venerable, yet you dare to buy this Divine Venerable? Bah!" After cursing, Er Gouzi spat a mouthful of saliva directly at Jiang Yushu.

Jiang Yushu's expression sank instantly, and he let out a cold hum. That glob of saliva was blocked in mid-air several dozen centimeters in front of him and fell to the ground.

"Young Friend, your beast pet seems to have quite a temper!" Jiang Yushu looked at Xu Que and said coldly.

If it weren't for the fact that he still wanted to rely on Er Gouzi's miraculous healing technique, he would have already taken action to slaughter the dog!

Xu Que smiled faintly. By this time, the experts from most of the factions had already surrounded them, but he didn't care. He had long been clutching a Divine Movement Escape Talisman in his hand; if the situation turned bad, he could immediately take Jiang Hongyan and the others and leave.

"You have quite an eye to be able to take a liking to Er Gouzi, but it's a pity, I still cannot sell it, because it is too precious!" Xu Que shook his head and said.

Naturally, he couldn't directly ask these people why they wanted to buy Er Gouzi, so he could only use this to probe them.

Jiang Yushu was not puzzled by Xu Que's attitude; on the contrary, he felt it was normal. A dog that could make injuries recover instantly was, of course, precious. No matter who it was, it would be impossible to take it out to sell.

"Young Friend, you just used this dog's fist technique to recover from your injuries. I presume you are also a smart person and should have guessed why we want to buy this dog. So, this old man won't beat around the bush with you. We need this dog to recover from our injuries. Name your price!" Jiang Yushu said coldly, pointing directly to the topic, not wanting to waste time with Xu Que.

At the same time, the people behind also swarmed forward one after another. Their positioning was very clever, blocking Xu Que's retreat from all directions. Some even isolated him from Jiang Hongyan and Liu Jingning. If he were to run, this group of people would have the confidence to prevent him from taking Jiang Hongyan away!

Xu Que, however, was overjoyed. He had originally thought that these people had discerned Er Gouzi's origin and therefore wanted to force a purchase.

But he never expected that these people were so mentally challenged that they actually thought his injuries were healed by Er Gouzi!

However, upon second thought, he also understood the misunderstanding of Jiang Yushu and the others.

In that situation just now, it really looked like Er Gouzi was making him recover while hitting him.

Thinking of this, Xu Que already had a plan in mind. He secretly sneered and decided to play along.

After all, since a face had been delivered to his door, how could he not slap it?

He looked at Jiang Yushu, sighed, and said in a difficult tone: "It's not that I'm unwilling to help you, but there are too many of you. Er Gouzi cannot make every one of you recover from your injuries. When it helped me recover just now, it already paid a great price! It and I have depended on each other for survival since we were young, and I feel heartbroken just watching it!"

Er Gouzi was bewildered, seemingly still not understanding the situation, but a voice rang out in its ear.

"Don't speak!"

"Hmm?" Er Gouzi immediately turned its head. It could tell that the person who had just transmitted her voice to it was Jiang Hongyan!

At this moment, Jiang Hongyan still had her eyes tightly closed, sitting cross-legged on the ground, her whole body emitting wisps of radiance, continuing to recover from her injuries, looking as if she had fallen into a state of closed-door cultivation.

Er Gouzi's eyes lit up instantly. Even if it were any stupider, it would have felt that something was wrong by now!

A conspiracy!

There is a conspiracy!

There is a huge conspiracy!

Er Gouzi couldn't help but feel excited. It had witnessed Xu Que's methods of scamming people; they were absolutely enough to piss someone to death without paying for it!

With Jiang Hongyan's reminder, Er Gouzi didn't care how this conspiracy was arranged. It directly closed its mouth, even revealing a sickly expression, cooperating with Xu Que, and then waited to watch the show!

Xu Que also didn't expect Er Gouzi to be so cooperative, and was shocked: "Er Gouzi, what's wrong with you? Has your injury relapsed? Sigh, it's all my fault. If it weren't for my injuries being too severe earlier, how could I have the heart to let you perform that 'Ultimate Invincible Return My Health Fist'!"

Ultimate Invincible Return My Health Fist?

Everyone present was dumbfounded upon hearing the name of this strange technique. How could such a miraculous technique have such a vulgar name?

However, some people didn't think too much about it, because they had witnessed Xu Que's various strange things, such as stinky tofu and the divine object that could see through ancient stones. These were things never heard of in the cultivation world, but they really had miraculous effects.

Now that there was one more technique with a strange name, what did it matter? Anyway, as long as it could recover from injuries, it was fine.

But when Liu Jingning heard this name, she almost couldn't help but want to roll her eyes. Based on her understanding of Xu Que, she naturally guessed that this bad egg Xu Que was trying to scam people again.

Jiang Hongyan was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, but no one noticed that when Xu Que said "Ultimate Invincible Return My Health Fist", a faint smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of her mouth, flashing and disappearing.

At this time, Dong Genji from the Xiaoyao Tower stood out and said faintly: "Brother Wang, speaking of which, our injuries were also caused by you. Now we are spending money to let your beast pet help us recover from our injuries. This is already following the rules. Are you still going to refuse?"

"Brother Dong is right, but I am also in a difficult position. Er Gouzi can at most help a dozen more people recover from their injuries, but this will make it suffer a backlash, and it might even fall because of this. I cannot accept this result!" Xu Que said with a difficult expression.

The more he was like this, the more everyone felt Er Gouzi's extraordinariness, and the more they wanted to obtain Er Gouzi.

But the next moment, Xu Que continued: "How about this, you choose fifteen people yourselves, and I will let Er Gouzi help you recover from your injuries, but each person must first hand over one million top-grade spirit stones as the cost for Er Gouzi's future healing!"

"What?"

Immediately, everyone present widened their eyes and exclaimed!

One million top-grade spirit stones to heal an injury? Are you fucking robbing us?

Many people were shocked. This was truly a lion's opening of the mouth.

It was true that everyone was injured, but as long as they went back and practiced in closed-door cultivation for a month or two, they would definitely be able to recover as before, and there was no need to pay such a high price at all.

Now they were in a hurry to recover, nothing more than wanting to have enough strength after healing to capture both Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan.

But now the price Xu Que asked for was really too high. One million top-grade spirit stones per person, who the fuck would be willing!

"Boom!"

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from a distant place, as if a huge explosion had occurred!

Everyone was startled, subconsciously turned their heads to look, and then stood frozen on the spot.

"That... is that Huangluo City?" Someone said with a trembling voice.

Countless people present were stunned, even Xu Que was moved at this moment.

Because the place where the explosion occurred was exactly Huangluo City, which he and Liu Jingning had passed through a few days ago.

And now, something had happened there, and the entire Huangluo City was actually floating in the air.

The ancient city, which should have been abandoned due to a lack of spiritual energy, was now surrounded by thick spiritual mist, and wisps of colorful clouds were falling down like a waterfall, emitting brilliant radiance.

At a glance, that area seemed to have turned into an immortal city, which was shocking!
