Chapter 596: Do You Want to Eat Steak?

Come up!

Xu Que's words carried an air of dominance; an Old Driver like him was a dime a dozen on Earth, ready to "drive" at the slightest disagreement!

But the people of the Cultivation World could never grasp the meaning behind his words, leaving the many Cultivators present filled with suspicion.

He was clearly just a Mortal, so how could his speech carry such imposing momentum?

Even some beautiful married women, when looking at Xu Que now, had a strange gleam in their eyes, lost in thought.

In contrast, that Holy Maiden of the Northern Sea merely smiled slightly and did not actually move to approach.

"Thank you for your kind offer, Young Lord, but this humble woman still needs to control the ship's Array; if there is a chance in the future, I will surely take the time to fully admire your ship!" The Holy Maiden of the Northern Sea spoke softly, her voice melodious and pleasant, making people yearn for it.

"Great, great! You can bring a few more sisters along!" Xu Que nodded happily.

"Very well, thank you for your enthusiasm, Young Lord; after the Secret Realm concludes, this humble woman will wait for your arrival at the Northern Sea Yun Family!" the Holy Maiden of the Northern Sea laughed.

"Northern Sea Yun Family, excellent, excellent, I've remembered it!" Xu Que smiled even more happily.

If anyone from the Water Yuan Kingdom were here, they would surely be startled by Xu Que's smile, for this was the exact expression he wore when leading troops to raid homes while shouting that they wouldn't take even a needle or thread.

Meanwhile, some male Cultivators present were sneering repeatedly, thinking inwardly that Xu Que was ignorant.

Anyone with eyes could see that the Yun Family Holy Maiden's good attitude was simply because she coveted Xu Que's ship; if Xu Que truly dared to go to the Northern Sea Yun Family in the future to meet her, he would likely be silenced and his ship seized!

"This ship has a strange shape and peculiar material; it is indeed quite good-looking and very novel!" someone began examining Xu Que's Yacht with great interest.

Such fresh novelties held a certain degree of attraction for Cultivators!

"It seems he hides his depth well; he didn't bring it out at the start, so it was probably hidden inside his Storage Ring! But having said that, since he already has a ship, why is he still stopped there and not leaving?" someone said suspiciously at this point.

A bystander immediately burst into laughter: "Haha, have you forgotten that he is just a Mortal? He has no way to activate this ship, so he can only leave it stopped there!"

"So that's it, I almost forgot about that!"

Everyone nodded in sudden realization one after another!

At the same time, Dong Genji and the man of the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan exchanged a glance, the corners of their mouths both curling into a cold smile, feeling it was time to make a move against Xu Que!

"Xu Que, isn't it time you repaid the debt you owe the Xiaoyao Tower?" Dong Genji stood on the Giant Ship, hands clasped behind his back, staring at Xu Que and shouting coldly.

Causing trouble at this moment, he felt he had it in the bag!

Immediately following, the man of the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan also stepped forward, smiling faintly: "I didn't expect there to be such a bold person in this world who dares to owe the Xiaoyao Tower a debt; Tower Master Dong, my Heavenly Pride Niu Clan finds such rogues most detestable, so we have decided to help you seek justice together!"

"Then many thanks, Brother Niu!" Dong Genji replied with a smile.

With just this casual give-and-take, they immediately formed a logical alliance, their gazes all fixed on Xu Que, brimming with Killing Intent!

The entire scene fell silent; no one stepped forward to say much, merely watching with cold eyes.

They all knew in their hearts that Xu Que had once offended the Xiaoyao Tower; as for why the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan was also intervening, that was not something everyone cared about, since in the end, Xu Que was just a Mortal ant, not worth their excessive attention!

"Whoosh!"

However, a sound of breaking the air suddenly rang out, and immediately two figures darted out from the Yacht!

They were precisely Xu Que's Dao Body and Thunder Illusion Body!

Both had silver-white hair and handsome features; expressionless, they walked out from behind the deck and directly positioned themselves to guard in front of Xu Que.

Xu Que looked at Dong Genji and the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan man with a smiling face, shaking his head: "Repaying debts with money is a matter of justice, but I don't seem to owe your Xiaoyao Tower anything; if there is something, please produce the evidence!"

Dong Genji immediately furrowed his brows; although he had been in the Secret Realm during this period, he could still receive some news from the outside world, knowing that Xu Que had over ten Guardians accompanying him, each possessing extraordinary strength, nearly comparable to Xu Que himself back in the day.

This was also the reason Dong Genji wanted to wait until reaching this Sea Area before killing Xu Que; he just hadn't expected Xu Que's Guardians to be so powerful that they could use Mang Tian Guo Hai to arrive here even earlier than them.

Meanwhile, everyone present was also surprised and greatly stunned.

"What's going on? Why did two people suddenly appear?"

"That's not right; just now, only he alone went into the sea, so how could two more have appeared?"

"I recognize one of them; he blocked the pressure for that lad by the seaside just now, but when did he go into the sea, and why did none of us notice?"

Many people were confused one after another, filled with Disbelief that two Infant Transformation Stage experts could actually slip past under their very noses and arrive here even earlier than them.

"Tower Master Dong, are you ready?" At this moment, the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan man transmitted a Sound Message to Dong Genji, not putting Xu Que's Dao Body and Thunder Illusion Body in his eyes at all, since they were merely two Infant Transformation Stage experts!

Dong Genji, however, immediately shook his head: "Brother Niu, wait a moment; now is not yet the time!"

With the Guardians appearing, he knew he could no longer make a move against Xu Que.

On this Reverse Flow Sea, if a great battle were triggered, it would be unavoidable that they might accidentally touch the Restrictions in the sky, which would be extremely disadvantageous for them!

To kill Xu Que at the cost of losing the Advantage in competing for the Life Spirit Holy Water was clearly not worth it!

The Heavenly Pride Niu Clan man, however, was instantly stunned, obviously unable to understand why Dong Genji had suddenly changed his mind.

But he also knew clearly that Dong Genji was deeply scheming; since he said to wait a moment, he definitely could not make a move himself!

It was not out of fear of anything, but rather that without Dong Genji taking the lead, if he acted alone, others would mock him for bullying a Mortal ant, which would be a very face-losing matter for their Heavenly Pride Niu Clan!

Xu Que paid no attention to Dong Genji and the other two; his gaze swept toward the Thunder Illusion Body, and he smiled faintly while talking to himself: "It's also time to go pick up Er Gouzi and the others!"

Having finished speaking, with a movement of his mind, he moved a Helicopter out from the System Space, causing it to appear out of thin air on top of the Yacht!

"Eh, what is this object?"

Everyone present brightened their eyes once again, feeling very curious about this strangely shaped thing called a Helicopter.

Xu Que paid no heed to everyone's surprise; lazily lying on the deck, he enjoyed the Sunlight bathing him while listening to the sound of the System prompting "Acting Cool Successfully" in his mind, feeling very comfortable!

Meanwhile, his Thunder Illusion Body had already stepped onto the Helicopter and started the engine; the rotors immediately began to turn, rapidly speeding up and whipping up violent winds!

"Put-put-put-put..."

The fierce noise instantly covered all directions.

As the Thunder Illusion Body pulled up the control stick, the Helicopter suddenly soared into the sky, blowing the calm sea surface into a depression!

"What? This object can actually fly?" Many Cultivators were instantly surprised.

They could all discern that this Helicopter had absolutely no flow of Spiritual Energy and belonged to mortal objects, yet it could ascend so easily, which was truly somewhat eerie.

"Indeed so; without the flow of Spiritual Power, it won't be erased by the Restrictions on the Reverse Flow Sea; if we could obtain this object..."

Watching the Helicopter swiftly sweep toward the seaside, many people's eyes began to brighten, and they started hatching plans.

Clearly, this helicopter's speed was far greater than their giant ships, and even vastly exceeded the speed Xu Que had just achieved while surfing.

If they could obtain this thing, fetching the Life Spirit Holy Water would be as easy as taking something from one's own bag, and seizing first place would be even simpler!

"Young Lord, what was that object just now?" The Holy Maiden of the Northern Sea Yun Family could no longer maintain her solemnity and hurriedly asked.

Although Xu Que's boat looked nice, it similarly lacked any flow of Spiritual Energy; in the eyes of the Yun Family's Holy Maiden, it was at most an item worthy of collection.

But that lump of iron that had just flown out was different; surprisingly miraculous, it could fly through the air without relying on Spiritual Energy or True Essence. If their Yun Family could obtain such an object, they could completely seize first place in the competition, or even claim all the Life Spirit Holy Water!

"That is called a helicopter! Its name is the Exploding Heavens Faction!" Xu Que replied with complete solemnity, without even lifting his eyelids.

"I wonder if the Young Lord has any spare helicopters? This humble woman is willing to purchase one with Spirit Stones!" the Yun Family's Holy Maiden immediately said.

Everyone present instantly thought something was amiss; they had actually been beaten to the punch by the Northern Sea Yun Family.

Xu Que, however, shook his head directly and said, "No more; our Exploding Heavens Faction has only one helicopter!"

After speaking, he pretended to be curious, looking toward the Yun Family's Holy Maiden and asking, "Could it be that the young lady is more interested in the helicopter? Aiya, why didn't you say so earlier? If you had just spoken up, I would certainly have given the helicopter to you!"

Didn't say so earlier?

Pah, why the hell didn't you bring it out earlier?

Everyone instantly felt lines of black sweat appear on their foreheads; even the Yun Family's Holy Maiden now had a somewhat stiff smile on her face.

However, the Holy Son and Holy Maiden of the Eastern Wasteland, along with numerous experts, had now become alert.

Most of them had previously been swindled by Xu Que; for instance, Jiang Yushu, the Great Elder of the Jiang Family, Dong Genji of the Xiaoyao Tower, Qin Ji of the Mirror Flower Water Moon Sect, and experts from the Gong and Bai families had all been thoroughly cheated by Xu Que in the past.

Now Xu Que had produced a yacht and then conjured a helicopter, both clearly powerful tools that could easily secure first place in the Reverse Current Sea competition.

Yet he made no move to seize the ranking, instead stopping here as if deliberately showing off to everyone; obviously, something was very wrong with this!

Recalling Xu Que's past methods of swindling people, the cultivators of the Eastern Wasteland immediately grew grim-faced.

It was obvious: this boy wanted to swindle them again!

"Put-put-put-put..."

At this moment, the sound of the helicopter came again.

Everyone present was immediately moved, turning their heads to look.

There were actually several more figures on the helicopter; it was precisely Liu Jingning and Duan Jiude, along with a dog!

"This... this is too fast, isn't it?" someone exclaimed in shock immediately.

It should be known that they had spent several hours traveling from the seaside to this sea area, yet this helicopter had been gone for less than a moment and had already brought Liu Jingning and Duan Jiude from the seaside over here.

Such speed was nearly comparable to a cultivator flying, and most importantly, the helicopter had not been affected in the slightest by the Restrictions in the sky above the Reverse Flow Sea!

Instantly, many people present felt stirred; some could barely hold back. If it weren't for Duan Jiude sitting on the helicopter, they would have likely forced the issue and attacked to seize it long ago!

And as the helicopter drew closer, exclamations from Duan Jiude and Er Gouzi came from above!

"Wow!"

"Wow wow!"

"Wow wow wow!"

The old man and the dog appeared extremely excited, poking their heads out from the helicopter, finding it very miraculous, exclaiming while foolishly laughing!

At this moment, Xu Que stepped to the edge of the deck, looked up, and smiled: "Er Gouzi, do you want to eat steak? If you do, hurry down and slaughter that ox!"

As he spoke, he extended his hand, pointing directly at that man from the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan.
