“Oh, Your Holiness is coming!”
“Hee, hee, hee, I, the old man, will totally annihilate you. Take that!”
SWISH!
Buttface and Duan Jiude went instantly into motion and became two beams of streaking light. They rushed toward the sea of flames in the sky along with Xu Que.
The two men and one dog branched off in three directions, each showing off his remarkable abilities and attacking the central figure amid the sea of flames.
Buttface sprinkled a special type of lime powder and enveloped it with his Celestial Core Power to be able to run through the sea of flames toward Li Xuanqi.
Xu Que followed closely behind him, throwing out chili oil.
Duan Jiude raised his hand to throw out dozens of brilliantly colored bottles, which contained all kinds of different amazing venoms.
AAAHHH!!
At the center of the sea of flames, Li Xuanqi let out a loud howl in a violent rage.
No matter how many Fiery Lotuses Xu Que had used to attack him, he could only restrain Li Xuanqi in place for the time being and make him suffer mostly just superficial wounds.
But when the trio followed up with the lime powder and chili oil under the cover of the sea of flames, these nasty products fell straight into Li Xuanqi’s eyes. In addition, the venoms that Duan Jiude had provided afterward were of such corrosive and paralyzing natures and were so powerful that Li Xuanqi had effectively been trapped.
Hence, Li Xuanqi’s howl not only carried with it anger, but also severe pain. A battle taking place at the Celestial King level had never f*cking seen anyone use such despicable moves.
All the onlookers were completely stupefied by what they were seeing.
They had initially thought that the sea of flames that Xu Que had detonated would at least inflict serious damage on Li Xuanqi. But then, as they’d realized that Li Xuanqi had the existence of a Celestial King, could this type of explosion really hurt him badly?
Who would’ve ever thought that Xu Que would deploy such underhanded methods or shout for Buttface and Duan Jiude to join in his sinister maneuvers?
The most striking point was that the cooperation between the two men and one dog was so perfect. The sprinkling of lime powder, the tossing of chili oil, and the casting of venom all at the same time were a completely seamless and unbroken operation. Even Li Xuanqi didn’t have time to react and was hit by all of them.
“This is definitely not the first time they’ve done this.”
“Wow, look at this combination. Does this look like the first time they’ve done this? I’m sure they’ve done this hundreds of times.”
“It’s utterly despicable. How can they be so shameless as to use such base and dirty moves?”
“These two men and one dog really live up to their name of the Trio of Que, De, and Dog!”
Many of the disciples of the Heaven Palace Academy spoke out to denounce this despicable method.
But at the same time all the onlookers had to admit to themselves that this method really had had its desired effect. After all, it was completely unexpected that a powerful Celestial King such as Li Xuanqi could had fallen into their trap.
“D*mn, my bad, Your Holiness threw out the wrong powder,” Buttface said, looking chagrined.
“What kind of powder did you throw out?” Duan Jiude asked.
“By mistake, I threw out the ashes I stole from the ancestral tomb of the Heaven Palace Academy.” Buttface smacked his lips and looked really desolate.
When many of the Heaven Palace Academy’s disciples heard this, they almost blew their tops.
“This dog stole our ancestors’ ashes?”
“You animal! All you callous animals, you’re asking for death!” At the same time, Li Xuanqi in the sea of flames let out another roar.
He had already gotten rid of the effects of the venom. His eyes had also cleared up from the sprinkling of lime powder and chili oil. He rushed over to where Buttface and Duan Jiude were in a rage.
“F*ck!” Duan Jiude was startled.
“F*ck, you’re crazy. Your opponent is not us, it’s Xu Que!” Buttface yelled at the top of his lungs to remind Li Xuanqi.
Li Xuanqi was struck dumb by their yelling. It sobered him up, and an idea flashed across his mind.
“Yes, what about Xu Que?”
In an instant, there came a strong sense of an ominous premonition that surged through Li Xuanqi’s heart and body. He stopped.
Xu Que, who had originally been standing next to Buttface and Duan Jiude, was nowhere to be found at this moment.
BOOM!
All of a sudden, Li Xuanqi started shaking all over, and his Celestial Core Power gushed out immediately and transformed into a blazing glow, which interwove to create an Ice Armor to swathe his body.
This time, he had to be on his guard and reassess his opponent, even though Xu Que was only a Disbanded Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven and not worth mentioning and completely beneath him.
But sometimes one had to be on guard against this kind of man who made moves without reason, had no limits, and was completely shameless, because it was difficult to figure out what Xu Que was going to do. Not being able to work out what was going through an opponent’s mind was the most worrying part of this whole encounter.
Although Li Xuanqi wasn’t afraid of Xu Que being able to seriously hurt him, he couldn’t tolerate being repeatedly humiliated like this. As a majestic Celestial King and the Patriarch of the Academy of his generation, how could he be repeatedly made fun of by these despicable methods? How scandalous it would become if it were to be widely known?
“Well, you little animal, come out and be prepared to die. Even if you have more despicable methods on your mind, they will be ineffective against me.” Li Xuanqi gave a snort. His cold eyes glanced around, trying to capture traces of Xu Que.
My Vital Celestial Armor has been cultivated for more than 3,000 years. It was drawn from the essence of the Sun Moon Star Galaxy. Even a Celestial King of the same level as I am couldn’t break it, you…”
BANG!
Li Xuanqi hadn’t finished speaking when a loud noise suddenly sounded from under his feet. A huge golden fist rushed straight up at the soles of his feet. His entire person immediately flew up in the air from its impact.
“Idiot, what’s the use of you protecting your body? Can you protect the soles of your feet?”
Almost at the same time, Xu Qu unexpectedly showed himself with a mocking smile playing at the corners of his mouth. He held the Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod in his hand and gave chase to Li Xuanqi. He rushed at his head and hit down hard at it with the rod.
“You really want to die!” Li Xuanqi’s legs had become numb from the shock of the Tough-Acting Fist. But his mind reacted quickly, and he immediately soared far away from Xu Que. He easily avoided Xu Que’s strike.
Then he waved his hand, and a huge mountain-sized palm instantly appeared in the air. It swiped down toward Xu Que, whistling frenziedly through the air.
BOOM!
With an earth-shattering sound, Xu Que’s entire person scattered from the impact, turned into white smoke, and disappeared without a trace.
“Was this an illusion?” Li Xuanqi’s face suddenly changed.
The next moment, another spasm of pain came from under his feet.
BANG!
Li Xuanqi once again flew from the impact of the huge golden fist. The soles of his feet cracked. Intense stinging pain followed and spread throughout his body.
HISS!
Everyone gasped.
“What the hell was that move? To specifically target the soles of one’s opponent’s feet?
The Ancestral Celestial Kings of the Sage Sect looked at each other with shock, and their faces became solemn.
“There’s something bizarre about this kid.”
“He can actually disappear from right underneath our noses without making a sound, and even his illusion is so real that we didn’t even notice it. It seems…”
“Can it be a Deity Artifact?”
While these two people spoke in low voices, a brilliant ray of light suddenly illuminated their eyes.
They hadn’t seen Xu Que’s war with the ten Celestial Kings in Tian Sha City. But, at this moment, they’d seen Xu Que used a wierd kind of technique to mess with Li Xuanqi, and they immediately speculated that Xu Que had a Deity Artifact on him.
Because only with the possession of a Deity Artifact was it possible to carry on to this degree and achieve one’s aims by such underhanded means that even superiors in cultivation stages couldn’t discern them.
“Enough! Stop your despicable methods, which you use to play to the audience.”
“Fellow Celestial Li, we’ll lend you a helping hand.”
Immediately, the other two Celestial Kings from the Sage Sect growled and moved to strike together.
Li Xuanqi saw this and immediately became anxious. He shouted, “No need, I can handle this alone.”
The two Ancestral Celestial Kings from the Sage Sect could see that there was something bizarre about Xu Que. How could he, Li Xuanqi, not see it? In case Xu Que really did have a Deity Artifact on him, then once these two people made their move, he would probably have to share some of it.
“No, you can’t handle it!” The female Celestial King of the Sage Sect sneered and pressed on her palm. Immediately, a crack appeared in the void and forcibly separated Xu Que and Li Xuanqi.
“Hee, hee, hee, my shot was off. Fellow Celestial Li, you don’t mind, do you?” The old woman gave Li Xuanqi a sinister look as she asked with a smile.
Li Xuanqi’s entire face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, “Since the two of you have kindly offered to lend a hand to help, how can I, Li, mind?”
“Ha, ha, ha, that’s good. Let’s dispose of this little animal first and then we can slowly negotiate the rest.” The old man from the Sage Sect said and laughed. The meaning implied by his words was obvious. They would kill Xu Que first, and then have a good discussion on how best to divide up the treasure that Xu Que had on him.
The three people did not speak any further and immediately fixed their eyes on Xu Que.
“Crap, time to run away!” Buttface realized what was going on, and all the hairs on its body stood up.
“Boy, you’re on your own.” Duan Jiude also shouted at Xu Que and immediately stole away with Buttface. He didn’t dare to stay in the battle anymore.
Xu Que frowned. He was vexed.
If he’d only had to deal with Li Xuanqi, he could keep on fighting and drag it out. But if he had to face three Celestial Kings at the same time, and try to drag it out, he could be completely annihilated at any time.
“Ah, System, can’t you upgrade a little faster? I’m waiting for you to save me.” Xu Que shouted to himself, at the System.
At this time, the progress bar on the System interface had already reached 99.6 percent.
