“Traitor, just get lost. I will punish you later!” Xu Que said, as he kicked Buttface halfway across the room!
Then, he looked at Situ Haitang and said with a smile, “Actually, you may not believe it if I say I can even kill cultivators at the Form Synthesis Stage!”
“The Form Synthesis Stage? You...Xu Que?! It’s not really a good time to crack jokes now. I am not lying to you. A lot of apprentices of the Scarlet Yang Sect have appeared in the Imperial City recently.”
“C’mon, Haitang, why don’t you believe me? I am really powerful now!”
“No matter how powerful you are, you can’t survive the attack of a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage! You’d better leave before being spotted by them!”
“No way!” Xu Que sat down firmly as if nobody could force him to leave.
“You stand up!” Situ Haitang said in surprise. She had tried to order Xu Que to stand up as a general would, commanding his forces.
“No!”
“Stand up!”
“No!”
“You...”
“Alas, OK, OK, I can stand up, but you should kiss me, hug me, and raise me up first!” Xu Que said as he opened his arms, pursed his lips, and looked at Situ Haitang in a wicked way, which made Situ Haitang quite angry. She almost wanted to beat him up!
Howl, howl, howl! “Holy shit! My dog eyes are blinded!!” Buttface, who was not far away, shouted sarcastically before Situ Haitang had time to say anything.
Bang!
Xu Que said nothing but blew Buttface out of the mansion of the City Governor directly with a magic art!
At this time, Situ Haitang, who had just come to herself, said, staring at Xu Que, “As an adult, you should be able to sense how dangerous the situation is! It is really not a good time to crack a joke now!”
Xu Que smiled a bit and started to comb his bangs with his fingers in a natural and unrestrained way. He looked at Situ Haitang and said seriously, “If I say what I said just now is true, would you believe me?”
Situ Haitang was stunned by his words. After looking at him in surprise for a while, she said suddenly, “No!”
Then, she turned around and left hurriedly. After hurrying away, she stopped in a quiet corner where nobody was close to her and started to pant. Her white and pretty face was blushing. She covered her chest with her hands and tried to calm down her excited heart.
...
At the same time, in the Scarlet Yang Sect, several gray-haired old men were sitting in the meeting hall. The atmosphere was quite melancholy. A kind old man, who was sitting in a chair at the highest position, had reached the Infant Transformation Stage.
If Xu Que had been here, he would definitely recognize that old man, who was Shang Wu’s father and the Sect Leader of the Scarlet Yang Sect. That old man was Shang Ling!
“How is the investigation going? Where is my son?” Shang Ling asked, as he looked at the rest of the Elders of the Scarlet Yang Sect.
One Elder sighed, “The Gong Family sent us a letter, which said Shang Wu didn’t go to the Gong Family at all. Also, the sovereign and the rest of the protectors who went to the Five Elements Mountain at that time didn’t return home either! The Gong Family thought that they may still be in the Five Elements Mountain now!”
“How could this be? If they are, why haven’t we heard from them till now?”
“Now we have a big problem. This is not a good omen, but an evil one for Shang Wu!”
They shook their heads and didn’t know what to say.
“Here comes urgent information!” A loud shout came in from the gate of the sect at this time.
Then, an apprentice of the Scarlet Yang Sect arrived at the entrance of the meeting hall. He went down on one knee and reported reverently, “Sect Leader, Elders, I have got the latest news from the senior apprentices in the Imperial City. They said they have found the whereabouts of Shang Wu!”
“Well, tell us! Where is he?” the Elders and Shang Ling were cheered up by the news. They sat up and fixed their eyes on the apprentice.
The apprentice didn’t dare to look up as he replied hurriedly, “Sect Leader, Elders, the grand senior sister apprentice said she captured a drunk eunuch in the Imperial City. After severe torture, the eunuch confessed something....”
After saying that, the apprentice didn’t dare to continue his report.
“Hey, why do you hem and haw? Just say it!” an Elder said angrily.
The apprentice replied hurriedly, “OK! The eunuch confessed that Shang Wu, the young lord of the Gong Family, and his eight protectors were all killed by Xu Que five years ago!”
“What?”
All at once, the Elders and Shang Ling were totally stunned and didn’t believe what they had heard!
“Were they killed five years ago?”
“How...could this be?”
“The sovereign of the Gong Family and his protectors are even more powerful than us, how could they be killed by Xu Que?”
Their eyes were filled with disbelief and terror. The son of the Scarlet Yang Sect’s Leader was killed, and they had only found out the truth after five years. This was absurd!
However, the Scarlet Yang Sect and the Gong Family had taken it for granted that their people were at the other party’s place because of the long distance between them, as well as the high cost of sending letters. Therefore, they hadn’t worried about this issue during all these years.
If Shang Ling hadn’t asked about Shang Wu in his letter to the Gong Family, he would have still been kept in the dark till now!
“This is outrageous! Xu Que has bullied us to the extreme!”
“That’s why Xu Que disappeared during all these years! He escaped because he is afraid of being punished by us and the Gong Family after we find out the truth!” those Elders said angrily.
This was definitely a great humiliation for the Scarlet Yang Sect!
Moreover, the Gong Family’s sovereign and his eight protectors were killed together with Shang Wu. The Scarlet Yang Sect couldn’t avoid being punished by the Gong Family even if Shang Ling was a distant relative of the Gong Family. At the thought of this, the Elders couldn’t help but worry.
“Sect Leader, what should we do?” an Elder asked of Shang Ling.
Right at this moment, the Sect Leader was submerged in the pain of losing his son. As a kind and enlightened cultivator, he had tried to give a good education to his son!
At last, Shang Ling leaned back in his chair slowly. Then, taking a deep breath, he said, “Find him out! I order you to find out where Xu Que is!”
No matter how friendly he was with Xu Que before, Shang Ling just wanted to avenge his son now.
“Sect Leader, our grand senior sister apprentice also told me they saw Xu Que in the Imperial City. Now Xu Que is probably in Snow City!” The apprentice reported again.
His words stunned the Elders and Shang Ling once again.
“Snow City?”
“The City Governor of the Snow City is the daughter of the Situ Family, right? Why did the little bastard Xu Que go there?”
“Could it be that the rumor is true? They are...,” an Elder stopped his prediction as he looked at Shang Ling cautiously. Shang Ling’s face was dark. When he was in Snow City in those years, he had heard the rumors about the mysterious relationship between Xu Que and his future daughter-in-law.
Now Xu Que had killed Shang Wu. Then, he was found in Snow City. His actions could really deepen the misunderstanding!
Bang!
Shang Ling crushed the wooden table beside him. Then, he stood up and said, clenching his teeth angrily, “Send a letter to the Gong Family to ask for reinforcements immediately. Ask them to send ten powerhouses at the Void Training Stage here. I will avenge my son by rendering that adulterous couple’s lives a living death!”
