“Heh, heh, if this proposal had ever been realized, do you think you would still be living in this world and speaking to me now?” Xu Que sneered majestically at this moment.
Everyone held their breaths and lowered their heads. Before this, they had thought Xu Que’s father was just an old liar. So they brazenlly issued wanted orders for his head. They never even bothered to consider whether Jiang Hongyan was his daughter-in-law or not! They certainly didn’t expect that this old man was born tens of thousands of years ago and his parents were the ancestors of the Heaven Palace Sect. Even worse, this guy was under the protection of the souls of two ancestors when no sects had Celestial Kings or Celestial Emperors at this time. It was just too horrible!
“Forget it. Since you have been informed, you know what you should do in the future. My son, Xu Que, will come to the Heaven Continent soon. I hope he won’t hear any news about a marriage between Jiang Hongyan and that Divine Being of Taoist Fetus.” Xu Que’s voice, which was softer than before, could be heard at this time.
Hearing this, the members of the Heaven Palace Academy let out sighs of relief. Li Xuanqi also felt reassured. After all, these were just small misunderstandings that could be resolved easily. He was quite happy that no big trouble had occurred. So he said, as he bowed toward the direction of Xu Que with a faint smile, “Mr. Xu, thank you for being so magnanimous.”
“This is not magnanimity. I am a merciful man but I don’t want to see this ever happen again! Okay, Li Xuanqi, just ask them to proceed with their business. I will go to the Heaven Palace Academy personally in the future.” Xu Que replied.
Li Xuanqi was shocked by his reply, “Mr. Xu, don’t you want to come forth and meet them?”
“No, that won’t be necessary. Anyway, they know my face because they have my portrait.”
“Eh…that won’t do. Since you have become the Deputy Dean of the Heaven Palace Academy, most of them should greet you on their knees. Otherwise, the rules of our sect will be violated.” Li Xuanqi said hurriedly for he was worried Xu Que would go back on his word. Before Xu Que had any time to answer, Li Xuanqi said, waving his hand at everyone, “All of you, stand up and follow me to greet the new Deputy Dean.”
“As you wish!” The people replied immediately. Then they started to walk toward the corner of the burial chamber, following Li Xuanqi. Nobody dared to disobey the orders of their progenitor. Moreover, they also wanted to see the souls of the two powerful ancestors of the Heaven Palace Sect.
However, all of them were dumbfounded by what they saw when they rounded the corner. At the end of the passage, a man and a woman, who looked quite illusory, were standing there with dull eyes. Xu Que’s father, who was the old man they had been hunting down, was being held in the woman’s arms like a princess. The members of the Heaven Palace Academy stood looking at Xu Que, who was looking back at them. The situation became very embarrassing, and nobody knew what to say at this moment.
“Behave yourselves! Why are you looking at me like this? Mind your manners! My mother is hugging me. Is this great mother’s love embarrassing to you?” Xu Que’s eyes got wide, and he scolded them angrily. The people, realizing their rudeness, waved their hands, saying, “Please calm down, Deputy Dean, that’s not what we were doing.”
“Bullsh*t! Your eyes told me that’s exactly what you think!” Xu Que shouted angrily. Actually, he was quite helpless at this time. He really wanted to show up in a majestic way. But he had no choice because all he could do was talk. He was not able to move his body at all.
“Ahem, Mr. Xu, please calm down! I will punish them later!” Li Xuanqi cleared his throat and said with embarrassment. He thought Xu Que would have left his mother’s embrace. But Xu Que continued lying in his mother’s arms. Li Xuanqi thought to himself, “Even if you haven’t seen your mother for so many years, it is really unnecessary to act like this. You are already an old man. Shame on you!”
“Wow! Li Xuanqi, I also see something in your eyes. D*mn! Are you going to fight with me? Come on. I will ask my father to kill you.” Xu Que shouted angrily again. This time he was really annoyed because he had noticed a strand of disdain in Li Xuanqi’s eyes.
“No, no, no! Mr. Xu, you misunderstood me. I…eh, we will leave you with your parents.” Li Xuanqi waved his hands hurriedly. He urged his descendants to exit to avoid further misunderstandings. “Mr. Xu, we will leave here now. Please enjoy the time with your parents.” He made his farewells in a hurry.
When all of them had left, Buttface and Duan Jiude who were outside the cave started to laugh impudently. “Hah! Hah! Hah! I haven’t been so happy for a long time. I didn’t expect that this guy would make such a show of himself. Mr. Duan, we must celebrate by having a good drink tonight!”
“Hah! Hah! This is so satisfying. Mr. Buttface, I think I will celebrate it by drinking wine for one year because I can use it as an inspiration for a whole year.” Buttface and Duan Jiude gloated about Xu Que brazenly.
Xu Que raised his eyebrows and shouted, “Father-in-law, mother-in-law, please stew that dog to replenish nutrients for me. Also, please kill that ugly and sordid old fart to protect all the normal people in this world.”
“Holy sh*t! Little brat, calm down and don’t do anything reckless.” Hearing this, Duan Jiude and Buttface stopped their laughter immediately because these two cowards were totally terrified. Luckily for them, the two souls had lost their intelligence. What they had now was only their obsession. They would only attack those who tried to do harm to their “child”. So it was impossible for Xu Que to ask them to do anything.
“Hey, Buttface, Duan Jiude, you’d better find a way to get us out of this place. We have been trapped here for so many days. Why are you still so slow in reacting? If you can’t figure out a way today, I will definitely punish both of you in the future.” Xu Que said with a smile.
Buttface’s eyes got wide immediately, “Holy sh*t! Little brat, it is impossible! If I could have found a method, I would have already run…oh, no, saved you.”
“Right. These two souls are too powerful for us. Little brat, I suggest you could pretend to be their child. Then you could try to wake them up. In this way, maybe we could be released.” Duan Jiude suggested.
“Nonsense. As a man with integrity, I will never call these two strangers father and mother.” Xu Que rejected Duan Jiude’s suggestion resolutely. Buttface and Duan Jiude rolled their eyes immediately. “A man with integrity? Bullsh*t! You have claimed they were your parents in front of all those people just now.”
“Eh…Faction Leader, I suggest you could try it. Otherwise, we might be trapped here forever.” Mo Junchen also tried to convince Xu Que at this time.
“Get lost! This is impossible!” Xu Que still replied resolutely. Liu Jingning, who couldn’t stand this embarrassing situation any more, said snappily, “Little villain, are you going to be able to meet Jiang Hongyan in this way? Are you going to meet her when you are being hugged in this woman’s arms like an infant?”
“Ah! Father, mother, I miss you so much!” Instantly, Xu Que started to cry with emotion. His hysterical cries were echoing all around this place. Buttface, Duan Jiude, and Liu Jingning rolled their eyes as if they had known what Xu Que was going to do before he even did it. Heh, what a shameless man!
At this moment, Xu Que was crying as he looked at Guan Chuchu’s soul with watery eyes, “Mother, please put me down. Otherwise, if you continue to embrace me like this, I will not be able to perform cultivation. I may die soon.” Xu Que had given up hope because he knew his words would be ignored. However, he didn’t expect that Guan Chuchu’s soul would start to move the next moment. She leaned forward and opened her arms carefully, and Xu Que was released.
“Holy sh*t, it’s working!” Buttface shouted in surprise.
“Heh! I’ve told you the blood relationship is always effective.” Duan Jiude was also stunned a bit. Then he started to boast.
“Nice suggestion, Duan Jiude!” Xu Que was quite delighted and surprised by this unexpected success. Combing his fringe with his fingers, Xu Que said as he looked at the burial chamber with a cold smile, “Then, it is time to let the people of the Heaven Palace Academy know… Hey! Hey! Hey! What are you doing? Hey! Xuanyuan Qishang, put me down! So, it is your turn now to embrace me after Guan Chuchu? I am not your child. D*mn! Let me go! Could I go back to the embrace of your wife?”
