Chapter 648: Is There Only One Room Left?

Xu Que sang with strange pronunciation and danced in a decent manner, leaving Jiang Hongyan somewhat stunned.

"What... what kind of dance music is this?" she asked, looking puzzled.

Although she couldn't understand the meaning of Xu Que's lyrics at all, she could feel that the style of this dance music was quite unique!

Xu Que said with a guilty conscience, "This is called an Indian divine song. Actually, I'm not very good at it either!"

"You sang it quite well, and you danced... quite well too!" Jiang Hongyan nodded calmly, giving a very serious evaluation.

"Low profile, low profile!" Xu Que immediately smiled modestly, but sighed inwardly!

He had made his footsteps so light and subtle just now, yet he was still discovered. Clearly, that previous sneak attack with the black stick had already made her wary of him!

No, this won't do!

With this King of Acting Cool's status in the world, how could he allow such a failure?

And what was there to feel guilty about? Why did he suddenly feel so guilty that he started singing an Indian song just because she looked at him? This was too damn embarrassing!

Must reverse this!

Xu Que immediately straightened his back, lifted the Fate Red Rope in his hand, and said with a faint smile, "Hongyan, I suddenly remembered a magic trick. Do you want to see it?"

"Magic trick? Are you a member of the Demon Sect?" Jiang Hongyan asked calmly, seeming to feel that if Xu Que really were a member of the Demon Sect, it wouldn't be surprising!

Because if you really calculated it, Xu Que's methods seemed even more vicious than those of the Demon Sect.

"Of course not. I am a scholar; how could I possibly enter the demonic path! Magic is a term from my hometown; here it can also be called a trick!" Xu Que immediately shook his head to explain.

"Hmm!" Jiang Hongyan nodded slightly, her expression still very calm, clearly having no interest in tricks or anything of the sort.

Seeing that she seemed about to enter a state of cultivation again, Xu Que immediately said, "Hongyan, do you believe that without using a storage ring, I can make this rope disappear into thin air right in front of you?"

"Oh? How?" Jiang Hongyan raised her eyelids slightly, looking at Xu Que with some curiosity!

"First, you have to stretch out a hand!" Xu Que laughed mysteriously, looking all secretive, and began to build the atmosphere.

Jiang Hongyan hesitated for a short while before truly stretching out her arm. A section of her wrist was exposed at the sleeve, fair and smooth, as if boneless!

"First, this rope must be tied around your wrist twice to get a bit of immortal energy!"

Xu Que explained and bluffed while grabbing one end of the Fate Red Rope and winding it around Jiang Hongyan's wrist!

Jiang Hongyan did not resist, calmly letting the rope wind around her wrist, and even shook her head, saying softly, "I haven't stepped into the Immortal Realm yet; I don't have immortal energy!"

"It's okay, if I say you have it, you have it!" Xu Que said, tying the rope into a dead knot without blushing or skipping a beat. Then he grabbed the other end of the rope and wound it around his own wrist, explaining, "Now it needs to be tied around my wrist twice to get a bit of handsomeness!"

Jiang Hongyan's face remained as calm as water, silent!

"Next, it's time to witness the miracle. Look!" After Xu Que finished speaking, he happened to tie the rope on his wrist into a dead knot as well!

Whoosh! The Fate Red Rope suddenly lit up with a faint halo, and then instantly vanished without a trace!

This also meant that the fate between the two had truly been tied!

"Eh?" Jiang Hongyan didn't know about these things. Seeing this, she couldn't help but be surprised and very unexpected!

Because she could sense that Xu Que hadn't done anything just now; he had simply tied the rope, and then the rope had really disappeared!

"How did you do it?" she finally asked with some curiosity.

The methods Xu Que displayed were all too strange!

For example, the previous black stick, and now the disappearing red rope—none of these were things normal cultivators could do!

Xu Que immediately became smug and laughed cheekily, "That's a secret! If you kiss me, hug me, and lift me up high, I'll tell you!"

"..." Jiang Hongyan watched him quietly for a while, then directly closed her eyes and entered a state of cultivation again!

Xu Que petrified on the spot!

Damn!

This is too icy; after losing her memory, she really did return to the pre-liberation era instantly!

The Empress is indeed hard to flirt with!

However... the Fate Red Rope has been tied, so why is it still like this?

Xu Que suspiciously touched his chin and sat to the side, deciding to wait and see what changes would occur!

As a result, he sat there dryly for more than half an hour, and absolutely nothing happened!

"Damn, could it be a fake or shoddy product?" Xu Que immediately began to doubt in his heart.

However, at this moment, the Empress was also feeling a bit restless!

She was naturally fond of peace, but for some reason, after chatting with Xu Que, it had been more than half an hour, and she still couldn't calm her mind to cultivate. This situation was very abnormal!

Vaguely, she really wanted to get up and walk around to see this "strange" world!

This thought was very small at first, but as time passed, it sprouted and took root, and the feeling of wanting to go outside and stroll around became increasingly strong!

"Xu Que!"

Finally, she suddenly opened her beautiful eyes and called out to Xu Que!

Xu Que was startled: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Hongyan stood up, looked into the distance, and said softly, "Accompany... accompany me for a walk outside. I want to take a look!"

She had originally wanted to use the word "follow," but clearly "accompany me" had a different tone than "follow me." Yet she inexplicably changed her choice of words, entirely subconsciously feeling that she couldn't use that tone with Xu Que!

Go out for a walk? Isn't this the rhythm of dating and shopping?

Xu Que was startled at first, then nodded without changing his expression: "Okay! I'll accompany you!"

But at this moment, he was already overjoyed!

You have to know, even before Jiang Hongyan lost her memory, she could never have said something like "accompany me for a walk." Now that this situation suddenly appeared, and it was while she had lost her memory, it was absolutely the Fate Red Rope starting to exert its effect, invisibly creating opportunities for him to make contact!

"I want to go to a place with many people!" Jiang Hongyan added!

"Sure, no problem!" Xu Que replied.

"Aren't you afraid of being discovered? They should still be looking for me now!" Jiang Hongyan asked.

In her view, if Xu Que really had the strength to kill all those half-step Tribulation Transcendence experts, he wouldn't need to take her and flee.

But Xu Que had used two consecutive King of Acting Cool Fists worth over ten thousand points, which had caused his Dao Rhyme to be somewhat weak, and even the system's auto-recovery function couldn't recover it!

But after a few days of recuperation, he had already returned to his peak and no longer feared anyone.

"Of course I'm not afraid! You don't need to worry about me. I took you away back then not because I was afraid of them, but because you once told me not to kill too many people. I have always remembered those words! And they might be your servants, so how could I bear to kill them?" Xu Que said shamelessly.

Jiang Hongyan was startled and remained silent for a while before saying, "Have you always remembered everything I said in such detail?"

"Yes!" Xu Que said with a bright, sunny smile.

Jiang Hongyan nodded slightly and fell silent, but she felt a bit touched in her heart!

'No wonder he was so dejected and disappointed when he discovered I had forgotten him. He has always remembered every word and action of mine, which shows his deep affection, yet I had forgotten him completely. I probably really hurt him. Before recovering my memory, perhaps I should also treat him well!'

"Let's go!"

Thinking of this, Jiang Hongyan said softly, taking the initiative to walk to Xu Que's side and walking shoulder to shoulder with him!

Xu Que didn't think that much; his mind was already drifting to the ninth heaven, praying that the inns in the nearby ancient city would definitely only have one room left tonight!

However, when the two arrived at the nearby ancient city, the cultivators in the city were very sparse!

After all, this ancient city was still within the Buried Immortal Valley area, very remote, and without any major events, basically no cultivators would come here!

But in the past few days, Xu Que's great name had already spread throughout the Eastern Wasteland!

His appearance with Jiang Hongyan in the ancient city instantly shocked everyone, causing an uproar!

"Damn, Xu Que!"

"Run! Xu Que is here!"

"Sigh, why run? We don't have a grudge against him!"

"You're naturally not afraid, but I'm still carrying my sister. What if we get sneak-attacked and kidnapped by him?"

"Damn, your sister is only four years old; what are you afraid of?"

"Exactly, she's already four years old; she's no longer a three-year-old child. It's still better to be safe!"

Wherever Xu Que went, many cultivators who had female family members by their side immediately turned around and ran, guarding against him as if he were a thief!

This made Xu Que very helpless and also very embarrassed!

Fortunately, Jiang Hongyan remained calm throughout, not caring about these things at all. Her beautiful eyes were always watching every brick and tile in the ancient city, the streets and stalls, as if immersed in her own world!

However, the news of his appearance was still passed on!

Just early the next morning, those powerful outsiders gathered collectively, and several ancestors accompanied them, rushing to this ancient city in a flurry!

As a result, they arrived to find nothing; Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan had already left!

An ancestor went to inquire and received shocking news, reporting to the half-step Tribulation Transcendence elder with a strange expression: "According to several innkeepers, Xu Que went to them to ask if there was only one room left. When the innkeepers replied that there were still many rooms left, he took the Saint Venerable and left, heading to another city!"

All the powerful outsiders were stunned!

Immediately after, a roar erupted: "That bastard, what does he want with one room! Quick, keep inquiring and see where they went!"

However, for the next two days, these powerful outsiders always arrived to find nothing!

Every time, they arrived just after the fact, only to learn that Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan had already left, and the reason was exactly the same: because Xu Que hadn't found an inn with only one room left, which made that group of powerful outsiders so angry their faces turned blue!

"Tell Xu Que that we are waiting for him outside the Buried Immortal Valley. If he doesn't appear, we will bloodbath the entire Eastern Wasteland!" Finally, the powerful outsiders couldn't take it anymore and decided to use a ruthless move, because they didn't have much time left!

This threat immediately caused unease throughout the Eastern Wasteland!

At first, many people thought Xu Que was invincible, but now that the powerful outsiders had issued a threat to him, everyone immediately realized something was wrong!

"We miscalculated! If Xu Que really had the strength to slaughter half-step Tribulation Transcendence experts, with his personality, how could he still be hiding?"

"This is bad. If he doesn't appear, won't we have to lose our lives for him?"

"It's over. As far as I know, there are five half-step Tribulation Transcendence experts among those outsiders!"

For a time, many cultivators were terrified and prepared top-grade spirit stones, wanting to take the teleportation array to escape.

But some factions with large families and businesses couldn't run at all and were as anxious as ants on a hot pan!

The Gong family immediately stood up and shouted: "Xu Que, did you hear that? Do you want all the people of the Eastern Wasteland to die because of you?"

The Bai family: "Xu Que, if you are a man, stand out! Can you really bear to watch those innocent people lose their lives?"

Er Gouzi: "That guy Xu, this God Venerable doesn't have a brother like you. Everyone is responsible for their own actions. Hurry up and show yourself!"

Duan Jiude: "Friends of the Zha Tian Bang, don't come looking for me to drink lately; I'm a bit busy!"

Bliss Sect Sect Master: "F*ck!"

【Ah! I drank too much Red Bull and can't sleep, so I had to write a thick and long chapter!

Also, thanks to the few new genuine readers recently, but it seems they only tip and don't subscribe. Ah, it's not that I'm being pretentious; I'm really grateful for everyone's intentions. But actually, subscriptions are the most important thing for an author. Maybe a hundred-yuan tip is far less than a ten-yuan subscription! Subscription means using book coins to purchase chapters!

Alright, I'm going to sleep. I'll continue writing when I wake up!】 ===== CHAPTER 649 =====
