Chapter 661: Joining the Exploding Heaven Gang!
"No, this absolutely cannot be given away!"
"The most precious family heirloom of my Gong family is this Nether Black Flame Spear! It's a five-star spirit artifact; how could a mere child possibly wield it?"
"Besides, that spear is more than twice as tall as he is. Can he even lift it?"
The Gong family members were nearly driven mad with anxiety, yet no one dared to speak out to stop it.
"Brother-in-law, I can't lift it. Can you help me?" At this moment, Jiang Taixu looked at Xu Que and said.
"Alright!" Xu Que smiled, thinking to himself that this child truly had a bright future. At the same time, he reached out, gripped his five fingers in the air, and instantly sucked the long spear over.
*Snap! *
As the long spear entered his hand, he could instantly feel a surge of immense power rushing through his entire body!
"Good spear!" Xu Que couldn't help but have his eyes light up!
Although there were many high-grade spirit artifacts in his system mall that he could exchange for, it was undeniable that this Nether Black Flame Spear was indeed a rare spirit artifact!
"..."
The Gong family members' faces were twitching, their hearts feeling as if they were bleeding!
Even several of the ancestors couldn't help but feel like crying without tears, shaking their heads helplessly. This wave was a truly bloody loss!
Even their own founding ancestor's life-bound spirit artifact had been snatched away. If this were to spread, how many years would they be mocked by the world?
But what could they do? The other party's strength was right there; no matter how unwilling they were, there was no other way!
"Forget it, forget it!" Several Gong family ancestors shook their heads, their voices trembling as they comforted the clansmen.
At the same time, they were also filled with regret in their hearts; they shouldn't have provoked this scourge in the first place!
"Taixu, Linlin, take a look and see if there's anything else you like. Feel free to take it!" At this moment, Xu Que spoke again.
Upon hearing this, the Gong family members were almost scared into collapsing onto the ground. They wanted to take more?
"No more, Brother-in-law. We've picked one each, that's enough!" However, the two children shook their heads very sensibly. Clearly, they were very understanding, knowing when to stop and not being greedy!
This point made the Gong family members suddenly heave a huge sigh of relief, as if they had been granted amnesty!
At the same time, they nodded secretly with full appreciation, acknowledging what Xu Que had said earlier!
These two children were truly sensible, good children!
"Fortunately, we only lost two spirit artifacts. Although it's very heartbreaking, it's still within an acceptable range!"
"Compared to the destruction of the Gong family, these two family heirlooms don't count for much!"
"Phew, finally escaped a disaster!"
"It's all thanks to those two children being sensible!"
Several Gong family ancestors couldn't help but look at each other and transmit their voices.
"Are you really not taking anything else?" At this moment, Xu Que looked at the two children again and asked.
The hearts of the Gong family members were lifted up again. They looked at the two children with eager eyes, shouting silently in their hearts: "Children, don't listen to him! We are good children; we said we don't want any, so we don't want any. You can't change your original intention!"
"We really don't want anything else!" Both children shook their heads!
A look of relief instantly appeared on the faces of the Gong family members. They were filled with emotion; good children, truly good children!
"Mm, alright then!"
Xu Que had no choice but to nod. He then turned around to face the Gong family members and said with a calm expression: "Alright, since they don't want anything, pack up everything else for me; I'm taking it away! By the way, there's no need for needles and thread. Make sure you don't put them in when you pack, otherwise, I'll be very upset with you!"
Pack... pack it up and take it away? No need for needles and thread?
Holy crap!
The Gong family members instantly froze in place; the air seemed to have solidified!
In the vast council hall, there was dead silence!
In the end, amidst the sorrowful and resentful expressions of the Gong family members, Xu Que swept the entire Gong family treasury clean!
And he kept his word; he really didn't take the needles and thread!
"The men of my Exploding Heaven Gang have always kept their word. Since I said I wouldn't take a single needle or thread, I definitely won't! Our tenet is to be honest, promote virtue, and fill the world with love!" Xu Que left behind these heartfelt words with great passion and walked away with Jiang Hongyan and the two children!
Looking at the vast treasury where only that lonely silver needle remained, the Gong family members couldn't stop their tears from flowing down!
Bloody loss! An invincible bloody loss!
To hell with not taking a single needle or thread!
To hell with being honest and promoting virtue!
To hell with filling the world with love!
"Who is the peak of the vast treasury? Once you see Xu Que, everything becomes empty!"
An ancestor clutched his aching chest, watching Xu Que's departing figure, and recited this in a fit of anger!
Another ancestor was also furious, scolding his clansmen: "From now on, our clan adds an ancestral precept: whoever the hell dares to provoke Xu Que again, I will personally cripple them!"
That same day, the Bai family, tens of thousands of miles away, also encountered the same thing!
Their entire treasury was emptied by Xu Que!
Following the Gong family, the Bai family suffered a major blow to their vitality, losing almost half of their foundation, and the two major families completely withdrew from the stage of the Eastern Wasteland's overlords!
However, when news spread about the Jiang family being destroyed and how the foreign experts were tricked and captured by Xu Que, the resentment of the Gong and Bai families instantly dissipated. They even felt a sense of lingering fear and relief!
They knew that if they hadn't cooperated with Xu Que at the time, they might have followed in the Jiang family's footsteps and been wiped out!
Although the Jiang family wasn't destroyed by Xu Que, the Gong and Bai families knew very well that if they hadn't cooperated, Xu Que would definitely have made their fate even more miserable than the Jiang family's!
Because this person was no longer human, but a terrifying Demon King!
At the same time, outside the foot of the mountain of the Bliss Sect in the Eastern Wasteland!
Countless cultivators, carrying countless generous gifts, were visiting and seeking an audience outside the mountain gate. Even the Gong and Bai families, who had just been robbed by Xu Que, had sent people!
"Sect Master Mo, please see us!"
"We are full of sincerity, only asking that you put in a good word for us in front of Xu Que, so that we can join the Exploding Heaven Gang!"
"Saintess Liu, you are a fairy who saves the world. Please show mercy and accept our sincerity, and let us join the Exploding Heaven Gang, okay?"
The shouting of countless people at the foot of the mountain resounded throughout the area and even spread to the entire Bliss Sect on the mountaintop!
The Bliss Sect therefore held an emergency meeting. All the elders unanimously advised the Bliss Sect Master: "Sect Master, this is a great opportunity for our Bliss Sect to rise! We have all seen those generous gifts: tens of millions of spirit stones, thousands of seven-star or higher dharma artifacts, and even several spirit artifacts!"
"That's right, Sect Master, we should just accept them. Anyway, they only said to put in a good word. When the time comes, we'll just mention it casually to Young Friend Xu. As for whether or not he accepts those people into the Exploding Heaven Gang, that has nothing to do with us!"
"Although this is indeed a bit unkind, compared to the future of the Bliss Sect, it is definitely worth a try!"
*Bang! *
"Everyone in this sect, shut up!"
The Bliss Sect Master immediately slapped the armrest of his chair in anger and scolded sternly: "If this sect really does as you say, how will we face our ancestors in the future?"
*Swish! *
All the elders of the Bliss Sect in the hall lowered their heads, their faces full of shame!
That's right! The Sect Master was not wrong. After all, if you take someone's money, you do things for them. If they really accepted the things but dealt with it casually, how could they face their ancestors in the future?
"Someone, convey this sect's order!"
At this moment, the Bliss Sect Master said with majesty, "Immediately open the mountain-protecting array, welcome the distinguished guests at the foot of the mountain, accept all the generous gifts, pack them up nicely, and send them all to Young Friend Xu tomorrow. Just say it's a small token of our Bliss Sect's heart, only asking that the Bliss Sect be allowed to join the Exploding Heaven Gang!"
At the same time, in a corner of the Eastern Wasteland.
Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude reappeared, heads held high and chests puffed out, strolling openly on the street!
Er Gouzi had never been so spirited in its life, shouting incomparably dashingly: "This God Venerable is the Deputy Leader of the Exploding Heaven Gang. Anyone who wants to join the Exploding Heaven Gang must have this God Venerable's nod! Those with treasures, offer treasures; those without treasures, offer delicacies; those without delicacies, offer the specific location of your family's ancestral tomb!"
Duan Jiude also shouted: "This old man is a direct disciple under Saintess Zixia of the Wei Wu Sect, and now I am an elder of the Exploding Heaven Gang. Brothers of the Exploding Heaven Gang, when you have time, you must come out for tea and a chat!"
Suddenly, the entire Eastern Wasteland was swept up in a trend of "joining the Exploding Heaven Gang"!
For the cultivators, Xu Que had undoubtedly become the strongest person in the Four Great Continents, and the Exploding Heaven Gang was an important label that could become their amulet!
They believed that by joining the Exploding Heaven Gang, they could run rampant across the world!
However, this situation only lasted for a few days before a piece of bad news suddenly came from the Northern Sea, like a huge haze covering the hearts of all cultivators! ===== CHAPTER 662 =====
