Chapter 216: The Plan

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

At that exact moment…

Xu Que’s glance fell upon the Fire Emperor who was once again inching away, trying to avoid him.

Xu Que’s expression froze on his face as he shouted out coldly, “Dog Emperor, stop wasting your Imperial Qi. This Imperial Qi is supposed to uphold and maintain the stability of the Fire Nation and directly affects the well-being of your people. I, Xu Que, wouldn’t want to bring suffering upon the innocent lives just because of our personal vendetta!”

When everyone heard this, they were shocked.

Hm? Why did this kid had such an abrupt change? All of a sudden, he’s worried about the safety and well-being of the innocent lives?

But that’s not right, isn’t it? Although it’s true that the Imperial Qi determines the prosperity of the Fire Nation, it only means that the country’s wealth and life was affected. That has nothing much to do with the actual lives of the civilians!

What is he trying to do now?

Many cultivators within the training grounds looked up at Xu Que with looks of astonishment written across their faces.

Most of these cultivators around had already gotten used to Xu Que’s eccentric and deceptive nature. When they saw him behaving like this, in such a self-righteous manner, they felt that something strange was happening.

The Sky Incense Valley disciples watched Xu Que warily, certain that there was definitely some hidden meaning to his words.

Not right!

There’s something not quite right here!

A ploy!

A ploy is going on right now. This kid is from the Heavenly Explosion Faction and everyone of them are cunning and will never have such sentiments for the civilian lives!

However, there were many other civilians who couldn’t see through Xu Que and were moved by his words.

When they heard that the Fire Emperor was presently endangering the lives of innocent civilians, they felt rather anxious. This was especially since they were just normal people and had no way to stand up for themselves. The only thing they could do was to sit and worry about their futures.

As soon as they heard Xu Que’s words, they felt extremely touched.

“What a good kid!”

Within the group of civilians, one of them was a frail old man who’s holding on to a walking stick for support. He was trembling as he spoke out.

“In order to ensure our safety, he actually decided to put aside his own need for personal revenge!”

“Ai, he’s such a good man. Why did life have to be so unfair to him?”

“Today, we shall all remember the name Xu Que!”

Many normal civilians were moved by his actions and they sighed out regretfully.

“Ding! Congratulations to host ‘Xu Que’ for successfully acting tough. The reward is 80 act tough points!”

“Ding! Congratulations to host ‘Xu Que’ for successfully acting tough. The reward is 100 act tough points!”

Right at this point, Xu Que was hovering in the air as the system notifications rang out within his head but he didn’t pay it any mind.

Xu Que sighed out deeply as though he had given up on the thing which mattered most to him in this life. His face was filled with sadness and disappointment as he looked up towards the skies and spoke out, “An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. Dog Emperor, I’ve already exposed all your misdeeds in the past. Seeing as to how you’ve been a good Emperor to most of these people here and how I’ve beaten you so many times today but you still refuse to retaliate against me, I guess you’re also feeling guilty and ashamed to face me after all the wrong you’ve committed. Is that right? Fine. Since that’s the case, I shall let you off!”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stupefied!

Fuck. This kid isn’t going to fight anymore?

The Fire Emperor is feeling guilty for all the wrong he commited and thus decided not to retaliate? So that’s why he’s been acting that way!

Many civilians around were shocked by this as well.

“This young man is so concerned for us mortals that he even decided to discard his hatred and need for vengeance!”

“He’s truly different from the other cold blooded cultivators. He’s a good man!”

“Such a forgiving magnanimity is truly deserving of admiration!”

Within the blink of an eye, the shadow of Xu Que had become a symbol of goodness and benevolence!

However, the Fire Emperor was stunned by whatever he had said. The main reason he had been hiding and dodging for so long was to not waste Imperial Qi by taking damage from Xu Que. In fact, he started to draw upon the Emperor’s Energy rather than draining the country’s reserve of Imperial Qi. All he needed was a little more time and he would be able to increase his cultivation level to the Void Refining Stage and flay Xu Que’s skin from his meat before killing him!

Yet now, Xu Que abruptly said that he no longer wished to fight? That completely took him by surprise.

Fuck!

Why… is he so eccentric and unpredictable?

If he doesn’t wish to fight anymore, who am I going to use my powers and skills on?

The Fire Emperor felt extremely anxious now.

He had painstakingly chose to draw on the precious Emperor’s Energy. All of these energy was extremely rare and had been left behind by his ancestors. Once he started the process of extracting the energy, there was no way of giving it back. Then… Wouldn’t all this go to waste?

Also, what was most important was that he had been pursued and beaten by Xu Que countlessly in front of everyone. To the audience, his face had already been thrown for losing in several bouts. Indeed, he was like a turtle recoiling his head into his shell.

That was the reason he chose to draw on the energy and amass his powers before killing Xu Que after reaching his peak. His plan was to ascend into the Void Refining Stage and overwhelm Xu Que and thus reclaim his pride and dignity from him!

His chance to do all that would require a little more time!

Now that Xu Que had turned around and was about to leave, the Fire Emperor was so upset, he almost vomited blood.

His whole body was trembling and yet he was still holding his fiery anger in. The Fire Emperor then shouted out, “Xu Que, if you really have a vendetta against me, let’s settle it today! If you leave now, it would mean that you are like a turtle who’s hiding in its shell!”

The crowd heard this and froze in shock.

The Fire Emperor still wishes to fight?

What was going on? When Xu Que wanted to fight, you were running and dodging. Now that he decided not to fight, you want him to stay and continue?

Could it be that the Emperor was addicted to the feeling of fleeing from his enemies?

The Emperor has… such a strange addiction?

The hundreds of mortal civilians were standing around in shock as well. However, at this point, anger started to well up within their hearts.

Xu Que is such a good kid. He didn’t want to harm the Fire Nation’s Imperial Qi and decided to voluntarily place down his need for vengeance.

But you, as the monarch of the FIre Nation, wished to continue wasting the Imperial Qi just for a fight? Are you still human?

Fire Emperor, you bastard!

The crowd glared at the Fire Emperor in anger, their hearts were cursing out at him angrily!

At the same time, the act tough points kept coming in, announced by the system within his head. He was laughing out for joy in his heart!

His face however, had a look of composure. He frowned before scolding the Emperor, “You still wish to fight? Are you even human? If you have the guts, dissipate your Imperial Qi now and fight with me. Stop using the futures of these innocent people as a shield!”

When the Fire Emperor heard this, he sighed in relief. As long as Xu Que didn’t leave, there was still a chance for him to reclaim his dignity.

But to scatter his Imperial Qi? Truth be told, he didn’t dare to. That’s because he had already experienced first hand a pair of Xu Que’s spells and they were terrifying.

However, as the Emperor of a nation, he was shrewd and had more tricks up his sleeves.

The Fire Emperor then replied, “The reason I’ve used the Imperial Qi is to weaken your three colored fiery lotus and lightning balls for those skills would destroy my entire city and harm innocent lives. If I scatter the Imperial Qi, you must not use those two spells as well. Also, you cannot use any spells which are too destructive in nature. Why don’t we have a proper comparison of who is more powerful?”

When Xu Que heard this, he was elated. He wasn’t allowed to use his Buddha’s Fiery Lotus and Lightning Balls? No problem! The main point here was to get rid of the Imperial Qi. As for killing you, I have a hundred other ways!

Dog Emperor, you’re indeed very sneaky. Do you really think I don’t know what you’re up to? What a joke! Standing before the act tough king, how can you ever dream to act tough?

At that moment, Xu Que replied without hesitation, “Sure. As long as you don’t use the Imperial Qi, I won’t use those spells. Today, we shall resolve this vendetta between us. Bring it!”
