Chapter 927: Charge, Charge!

Strenuous work?

Just fetching a Jade Token—how does that count as strenuous work?

The few people present were instantly left speechless; anyone could see that this lad Xu Que was coveting that Jade Token, hoping to sneak into the Yao Pond filled with beauties in the future and stir up trouble.

"Brother, when will you ever have some shame?" Xu Feifei said helplessly.

It was bad enough that Xu Que was shameless, but this lad's shameless excuses were often so transparent that people saw through them instantly; he simply couldn't be bothered to concoct reasons for his shamelessness.

"Ugh, I was just joking! You guys really have no sense of humor!" Xu Que withdrew his hand with an embarrassed grin.

It wasn't because Xu Feifei had exposed him, but because he saw Jiang Hongyan's ambiguous expression of a smile that wasn't quite a smile, making his heart quake with guilt.

The old woman, however, breathed a sigh of relief; to be honest, she was quite afraid of the Jade Token falling into Xu Que's hands, fearing that if this lad really managed to sneak into the Yao Pond, the place would descend into chaos.

"Everyone, it is about time; we should depart now!" At this moment, Elder Yu spoke, his gaze turning toward the sky.

At this time, countless figures were already rising from all directions of the First Domain, rushing toward that massive Half-Moon Palace.

Although First Domain City belonged to the center of the First Domain, the various Clans within the city could only be considered Puppets, including the Dong Family; all of them had been propped up by the various Sects within the First Domain.

Therefore, only now were the true powerhouses all showing themselves, aiming to break into the Refining Moon Palace and contend for various resources and treasures.

"Young Lord Wang, those wearing white robes with green bamboo embroidered on their chests over there are people from my Liye Sect; let us first join them, and then we can act together," Elder Yu said, pointing toward the dozens of figures to the south.

"Alright!" Xu Que nodded, waved his large hand, and immediately stepped forth with surging Lightning beneath his feet.

In the next moment, Jiang Hongyan took Xu Feifei with her, Xu Que dragged Er Gouzi and the Teddy dog, while the old woman and Elder Yu leaped up simultaneously; the group soared into the air and headed south.

Soon, they merged with the Liye Sect Disciples led by Elder Yu.

Although the Refining Moon Palace held many opportunities for Creation, the numerous Sects could not possibly send out all their powerhouses; after all, the Refining Moon Palace was far too dangerous, and should anything unforeseen happen, it could very well lead to the annihilation of an entire Sect.

Therefore, this time, the Liye Sect had dispatched only dozens of Silver Level Disciples, led by this Elder Yu, and supplemented by external aids like the old woman and Xu Que to form their team.

Many Liye Sect Disciples had long heard of Xu Que's strength, but at this moment, most of them stared dumbfounded at Jiang Hongyan and Xu Feifei.

Clearly, these male Disciples were stunned by Jiang Hongyan's temperament and beauty, and also startled by Xu Feifei, who was merely a Mortal.

"Presumptuous!" Elder Yu immediately shouted in a deep voice, glaring fiercely at the numerous Disciples.

Only then did those Disciples come to their senses; they immediately lowered their heads, daring not to look around recklessly anymore.

Only then did Elder Yu turn to Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan, saying apologetically, "My apologies; our Sect's discipline is not strict enough, causing you to witness this embarrassment."

"No harm, no harm; I am not that kind of petty person," Xu Que said immediately with a beaming smile, waving his hand, but in the next moment, a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he gave a Cold Smile: "However, if there is a next time, do not blame me for being ruthless."

"Rest assured, Young Lord Wang; if there is a next time, I will personally cleanse the Sect gates!" Elder Yu hurriedly replied.

She was very clear about Xu Que's strength; even the old woman had to fear this lad by three parts, so one could imagine how terrifying his power truly was!

The numerous Liye Sect Disciples also felt a chill in their hearts and trembled with fear.

Although they knew Xu Que was powerful, they had never expected that Elder Yu would show such reverence before him.

"Get ready; the Refining Moon Palace is about to open!" At this moment, the taciturn old woman spoke, her expression extremely grave.

A hundred years ago, she had been ambushed within the Refining Moon Palace and suffered heavy injuries; now that she had recovered and returned to fight again, she still dared not let her guard down.

Even those who had secretly plotted against her back then might still be inside the Refining Moon Palace now.

Xu Que was also very clear about this point, but he did not retreat; with a wave of his wrist, he summoned the System, borrowed its power, and extracted five Refining Moon Keys from the Blood Coffin he had seized earlier.

The people of the Liye Sect had also long taken out their keys; including the old woman and Elder Yu, everyone held their Refining Moon Keys in hand, fully prepared.

"Boom!"

At this moment, the Refining Moon Palace suddenly shook, triggering a loud noise; the brilliant red light immediately became even more vivid, filling the entire sky.

"The Refining Moon Palace has opened; everyone, charge!" From the direction of the Western Paradise in the distance, a group of burly men roared, each dragging a Refining Moon Key as they rushed toward that Half-Moon Palace, their morale extremely high.

"Those are people from the Golden Gate Sect; their strength is comparable to our Liye Sect. Young Lord Wang, if we encounter them inside later, you must absolutely not engage them in close combat!" Elder Yu opened her mouth to remind him.

Xu Que smiled, paying it no mind.

Close combat? He had never been afraid of it!

"Whoosh!"

At the same time, the various Sects from other directions also set out.

Many Silver Powerhouses, led by Golden Powerhouses, all rushed toward the Refining Moon Palace.

Elder Yu also pointed out individually some of the powerful Sects, urging Xu Que to be cautious.

For instance, the aforementioned Golden Gate Sect, which excelled in close combat, the Night Eagle Pavilion, which excelled in speed, and the Sky Cloud Sect, which excelled in long-range attacks.

However, the ones who always needed to be feared the most were still those clad in red robes from the Refining Moon Sect.

"If you encounter people from the Refining Moon Sect, turn around and leave immediately; hide as far away as possible."

Elder Yu's Expression was very grave as she said in a low voice, "People from this Sect have a very deep connection with the Refining Moon Palace; rumor has it that they can manipulate all the mechanisms inside the Refining Moon Palace."

"Enough, enough; if you go on like this, it will never end!" Xu Que, listening, felt somewhat impatient and shook his head, saying, "You are all too cautious; this way, there is no future. Look at our Blasting Heaven Gang; the fact that we have developed to our current Status today relies entirely on one word—recklessness!"

"That's right!" Er Gouzi immediately assumed an arrogant Expression, waved his hand, and said, "Our creed is: take life and death lightly; if you disagree, just fight!"

Elder Yu was instantly rendered speechless, feeling somewhat helpless.

She was merely offering a kind reminder, fearing that Xu Que would underestimate the enemy and eventually drag them down with him.

But seeing Xu Que's mindset, she felt helpless and could do nothing, so she stopped speaking further.

"Er Gouzi, well said! Come, it is time to show our true skills and let them witness the might of our Blasting Heaven Gang!" Xu Que shouted loudly, full of fighting spirit, raising his arm and crying out, "Charge!"

"Charge!" Er Gouzi also waved his paw and shouted loudly.

The one man and one dog immediately created an atmosphere filled with hot-blooded passion.

Several Liye Sect Disciples, thinking they were truly about to launch an assault, immediately rushed out following the cry.

But after charging only a few steps, they discovered that Xu Que and Er Gouzi hadn't moved at all; they were still standing in place, staring wide-eyed at each other.

"Charge!" Xu Que shouted again.

"Chaaarge!" Er Gouzi also shouted along.

Xu Que's face instantly turned black: "You're the one who should charge!"

"Damn, why shouldn't you charge first?" Er Gouzi protested indignantly.

"Because I'm handsome; I must stay behind to cover the retreat!"

"Bullshit; I, the Divine Venerable, am the strong one most suited to cover the retreat."

"You damn bastard just want to find a chance to run, right?"

"Nonsense; I, the Divine Venerable, have bones of iron and sinews of steel; I will only die in battle, never survive by cowering!"

"Fine, then I'll stay behind to supervise you!"

"Good; let's link pinkies and promise not to flee!"

"No problem!"

The man and the dog reached a harmonious agreement; they would walk at the rear, even hooking their little fingers together to seal their pact.

Everyone present nearly vomited blood at the sight.

These two scoundrels clearly wanted to hide at the back, yet they had the audacity to claim they were supervising each other? They were probably planning to steal what they were supposed to guard!

"Enough, enough; let us set out first!" Elder Yu shook her head with a bitter smile, waved her hand, and led the many Disciples to depart.

After all, from the very beginning, she had never expected any helpers other than the old woman.

Xu Que's appearance was purely an accident; now This Lad plainly did not intend to exert effort but rather wanted to stay behind to protect his sister.

Thus, Elder Yu could only proceed according to plan, placing all her chips of hope on the old woman.

Whoosh!

As everyone advanced and drew near Lian Yue Palace, the Refining Moon Key in hand suddenly grew scorching hot, began slowly melting within the palm, and dripped out strands of fresh blood.

"Boom!"

The next moment, before Xu Que could even react, the patch of red light outside Lian Yue Palace suddenly exploded, like a huge blazing sun bursting forth with blinding Spiritual Light, instantly swallowing everyone around into its depths.

Lian Yue Palace had truly opened!
