Chapter 629: A Jumping Clown

Xu Que!

This name was long familiar to the people of the Eastern Wasteland!

Upon hearing this name now, everyone in the Great Hall of the Extreme Joy Sect was visibly shaken!

Even though some had already guessed Xu Que's identity from the words "Little Que Que," their expressions were now strangely complicated.

"How could he have come to our Extreme Joy Sect?"

"Didn't we hear he had already crippled his own cultivation and become a useless cripple?" someone asked with a face full of confusion!

A bystander immediately sneered coldly: "You call him a useless cripple? Heh, you are too naive; you haven't left the sect for several years and completely fail to keep up with changes in the outside world!"

"It's only been a few years; could anything major have happened?"

"Of course it was major! Three years ago, our sect participated in the Nanzhou Secret Realm Trial, but returned in less than a year; guess what news they brought back?"

"What? They returned in less than a year?"

"Exactly; it was all because of this Xu Que. With a mortal body, he broke into the Secret Realm, somehow conjured up a pile of iron lumps, and on the Reverse Flow Sea, forcibly smashed the giant ships of the Southern Continent's Heavenly Pride Niu Clan and Shengfeng Pavilion, causing the complete annihilation of both factions' trial teams, and finally plundered every faction on the Reverse Flow Sea!"

"Damn, so fierce? Then didn't our sect also suffer disastrously?"

"Not really; the Holy Maiden seems to have a good relationship with this lad, so she let our sect's people return early!"

"Eh, speaking of which, this guy isn't so bad after all!"

"Not bad my ass; if you had witnessed this lad's methods of scamming people, you would definitely be scared to tears!"

Numerous disciples of the Extreme Joy Sect discussed this among themselves.

At the same time, the faces of several Extreme Joy Sect Elders also looked somewhat ugly; they stared at Xu Que with extreme vigilance, their eyes as if guarding against a thief, fearing this fellow would come to wreak havoc on the Extreme Joy Sect!

However, the Sect Master of the Extreme Joy Sect, who had been sitting on the high seat all along, remained calm and composed; sweeping his gaze toward Xu Que, he asked with solemnity: "Young Friend Xu, I heard you drove my Extreme Joy Sect disciples back from the Secret Realm, and now you have barged into my sect's Great Hall; may I ask what instruction you have?"

"Oh, Sect Master, one must not speak recklessly! I, Xu Que, have always acted openly and honorably; when have I ever driven away your sect's disciples? Little sister, you judge the reason!" Xu Que said with a smiling expression, his gaze also fixed directly on the Sect Master of the Extreme Joy Sect, utterly solemn.

Liu Jingning was slightly dazed; originally she had thought Xu Que was truly leaving, but she never expected this lad to suddenly change his mind, and with such overwhelming force, he was now even confronting the Sect Master!

"Little Que Que, do not be rude!" Liu Jingning hurriedly glared at Xu Que, fearing this fellow would really start a conflict with the Sect Master.

Immediately afterward, she turned to look at the Sect Master of the Extreme Joy Sect, bowed slightly, and said: "Reporting to the Sect Master, this matter is a misunderstanding; Xu... Xu Que bears no evil intent toward our Extreme Joy Sect; having the sect disciples leave first was to avoid accidentally injuring them, and furthermore, in the end, Xu Que even helped our Extreme Joy Sect obtain a large quantity of Life Spirit Holy Water!"

Having said this, Liu Jingning flipped her hand, took a Jade Bottle out of her Storage Ring, gently lifted it, and the Jade Bottle immediately floated toward the Sect Master of the Extreme Joy Sect!

"You obtained Life Spirit Holy Water?" The Sect Master of the Extreme Joy Sect was somewhat surprised; after taking the Jade Bottle, he swept his divine sense inside to investigate, and was immediately shaken!

Clearly, the quantity of Life Spirit Holy Water in the Jade Bottle exceeded his imagination!

Xu Que also realized that the Extreme Joy Sect was far away in a corner of the Eastern Wasteland with closed information channels; at this moment, they still did not know the aftermath of what happened in the Southern Continent Secret Realm, let alone that they had dug up the Spiritual Life Tree, much less the fact that he had beaten an Ancestor of the Body Integration Stage to death with three punches!

Hehe, it seems I see another opportunity for Acting Cool!

Thinking of this, the smile on Xu Que's face grew even wider!

"Young Friend Xu, this Sect Master has misunderstood you!" At this moment, the Sect Master of the Extreme Joy Sect spoke again, his tone slightly gentler!

But that was all; there was certainly no apology, for as the master of a sect, how could he possibly apologize to a junior like Xu Que?

In his eyes, Xu Que was at best a young man skilled in tricks, fundamentally incomparable to those Holy Sons and Holy Maidens!

However, Xu Que did not mind this at all; on the contrary, he gave a modest smile, waved his hand, and said: "Sect Master need not be polite!"

The Sect Master of the Extreme Joy Sect smiled slightly and nodded, feeling very satisfied with Xu Que's attitude!

A smile also appeared on Liu Jingning's face; in her heart, she even felt a small happiness, for based on her understanding of Xu Que, she naturally knew that Xu Que was being this polite to their Sect Master only out of respect for her!

"Hmph!"

Just then, a cold snort broke this harmonious atmosphere.

The young man beside the red-robed elder Li Tangshan looked at Xu Que mockingly and sneered coldly: "So you are Xu Que; before we set out for the Extreme Joy Sect, we heard that an Ancestor of the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan was waiting outside the Secret Realm for you; unexpectedly, you actually managed to return alive; it seems your Qi Circulation is quite good, allowing you to catch the moment when that Ancestor of the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan had left!"

What?

Instantly, the many Extreme Joy Sect disciples present, and even those Elders and the Sect Master of the Extreme Joy Sect, were all stunned!

An Ancestor of the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan was blocking him outside the Secret Realm, yet he actually managed to return alive?

It seems his luck really is very good!

Otherwise, if he had truly encountered those Ancestors of the Body Integration Stage, he probably wouldn't even know how he died!

However, Xu Que said with a smiling expression: "Are you talking about Niu Wu of the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan? Sorry! He is already dead!"

Dead?

Everyone suddenly froze, looking at Xu Que with faces full of confusion.

Xu Que rubbed his fists and smiled: "I beat him to death with three punches; what a pity, his Flesh Body was shattered too severely, otherwise making 'Tender Beef Five Squares' out of him would have been nice!"

Upon hearing these words, everyone present twitched the corners of their mouths, looking speechless and disdainful!

Beat an Ancestor of the Heavenly Pride Niu Clan to death with three punches?

Are you fucking crazy?

That is an Ancestor of the Body Integration Stage; how can you treat such a person as a joke?

More importantly, can't you make a more normal joke; making this kind of joke treats us like fools, doesn't it?

Everyone shook their heads in silence; even the Sect Master of the Extreme Joy Sect, looking at Xu Que again, had eyes that became indifferent.

The young man beside Li Tangshan could not help but laugh: "Haha, this Young Friend Xu, I finally understand why so many people want to kill you! Here I advise you: while you are young, you should train hard and have fewer daydreams; in our eyes, such stunts to attract attention are extremely boring!"

After speaking, he shook his head; at this moment, looking at Xu Que was like looking at a jumping clown, full of disdain and mockery.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Liu Jingning also shook her head with a bitter smile in her heart!

After all, the things Xu Que did were truly too terrifying; at the time, even those who witnessed it with their own eyes dared not believe it, let alone these people who had not even heard the news!

"Tsk tsk, ignorant people! I also have a piece of advice for you: while you are young, go out and see more of the world, read more news and reports, understand current events, and don't embarrass yourself here!" At this moment, Xu Que glanced at the young man and said with a cold smile.

The young man's face instantly turned cold; he snorted coldly and said: "Presumptuous! Do you know who you are talking to?"

"Presumptuous your mother's paralysis!" Xu Que replied as lightly as floating clouds and gentle breeze.

"You..." The young man's eyes instantly widened in disbelief; he clearly hadn't expected Xu Que to curse so openly in public!

"Your Mother's Paralysis!" Xu Que stated calmly once more.

"Seeking death!" The young man's expression immediately hardened, and he made a move to strike!

"Seeking your mother's paralysis!"

"Enough!"

Suddenly, a sharp rebuke interrupted the cursing match between Xu Que and the young man; it was none other than the red-robed elder, Li Tangshan!

He cast a cold glance at Xu Que, then turned his gaze to the Sect Master of Extreme Joy Sect, stating in a deep voice, "Sect Master Mo, we have come here today to propose marriage! I beg Sect Master Mo to drive out these irrelevant individuals so they do not disturb our important business any further!"

"Propose your mother's paralysis; I just stated that I do not agree to this marriage!" Xu Que spoke calmly once again.

Li Tangshan's face instantly turned black!

Just as he was about to erupt in anger, the young man beside him suddenly stepped forward!

"You say you disagree? Then I would like to see how you can disagree when my Li family has even brought the betrothal gifts!" the young man said with a cold smile, waving his large hand, whereupon several beams of spiritual light instantly shot out from the Storage Ring on his finger and landed on the ground!

"Sect Master Mo, my Li family brings one set of High-Stage Formations, one million Top-grade Spirit Stones, and several Dharma Artifacts to formally propose marriage to your sect's Holy Maiden!"

【Today I spent the whole day traveling from my Hometown back to Shenzhen; I'm exhausted. Perhaps I've eaten too much beef Hot Pot recently and have some internal heat—after all, the beef Hot Pot in my Hometown, Chaoshan, is truly delicious! I can't hold on any longer, so just one Chapter for today. I'll get up early tomorrow to update for everyone; it must be three Chapters!!!】
