"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for killing Big Panther. Acting tough successfully. The reward is 10 act tough points."
"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for killing Big Panther. The reward is 400 experience points."
The system beep rang in his head.
Xu Que was stunned.
Damn, I … killed someone?
Xu Que was stunned. He only wanted to test out the power of the Soaring Dragon Nine Transformations. He didn't expect that just the first transformation would be able to kill Big Panther, who was born with extraordinary strength.
"Dragon … This … This is a dragon!"
All of a sudden, a trembling voice filled with fear could be heard.
Following that, the group of Water Back villagers all knelt on the ground. Their faces were filled with fear and their bodies were trembling. They cried and begged Xu Que for mercy.
"Ah! Immortal elder, please spare our lives! "
"We were blind. Please spare our lowly lives …"
Eh? What's going on?
Xu Que was stunned.
"Plop! Plop!"
Before he could figure out what was going on, a few muffled sounds came from behind him.
Xu Que turned his head to look and was stunned.
A few of the Pan Shan villagers didn't care about their injuries and knelt down to beg for mercy. Their faces were filled with fear.
He then looked at Xiao Rou. She stood rooted to the ground and her eyes were filled with fear.
How could this be?
Xu Que couldn't accept it. He didn't think much of the Water Back villagers kowtowing to him.
However, he couldn't accept the simple villagers kowtowing to him.
Especially when he saw Xiao Rou's fearful eyes, Xu Que felt as if his heart was being squeezed by someone.
"Fellow villagers, what are you doing? Get up! I'm only dealing with these bad guys. I won't hurt you! "
He hurriedly dispersed his spiritual Qi and the dragon-shaped glow on his body disappeared. He then shouted at the Pan Shan villagers.
However, the villagers' faces were still filled with fear. They knelt on the ground, not daring to utter a single word.
Xu Que was anxious. He looked at Xiao Rou and said, "Xiao Rou, what … what's going on? Quickly wake up the villagers! I mean no harm. "
Only then did Xiao Rou come to her senses. She looked at Xu Que in panic and said, "You … you are an immortal …"
"What immortal! I'm a human just like you guys! "
Xu Que was very surprised. Were cultivators so scary? Why did they all look at him with such reverence as if they had seen a god?
"Xiao Rou, don't be afraid. I really won't hurt you. Tell me, what's going on?"
"Really?" Xiao Rou asked timidly.
"Of course it's true!" Xu Que nodded.
Seeing this, Xiao Rou regained a trace of color and barely managed to calm down.
Soon after, she told Xu Que about the immortal.
It turned out that in the east of Pan Shan Village and Water Back Village, there was a Celestial Sect.
As for Pan Shan Village and Water Back Village, as well as the other villages within a hundred miles, they were all under the protection of the Celestial Sect.
However, every month, every village had to pay tribute to the Celestial Sect. If a village killed a wild beast, they could use the beast's Demon Nucleus to replace the food.
However, if there were no Demon Nucleus and insufficient food, the village would be punished.
The Celestial Sect would capture some of the able-bodied men in the village and bring them to the mountains. From then on, there would be no news of these able-bodied men.
This was why the villagers were so afraid of the immortal cultivators.
When Xu Que heard this, he was enraged.
The Celestial Sect was simply too much. Relying on their cultivation, they actually oppressed the mortals and caused the villagers to panic.
"Didn't you guys resist?"
Xu Que couldn't help but ask.
However, as soon as he asked this, he wanted to slap himself.
Because this was an idiotic question. No matter how weak the Celestial Sect people were, they were at least in the Qi Refining Stage. With their skills, how could these villagers be a match for them?
"We don't dare …" Xiao Rou didn't think that Xu Que was an idiot. She shook her head and replied.
Xu Que was silent for a moment. He leaned towards Xiao Rou and whispered, "Xiao Rou, I'll go home first. Explain to the villagers that I'm different from the Celestial Sect people. Tell them not to kneel and not to be afraid of me. I won't hurt the villagers."
"Yes, I believe you!" Xiao Rou nodded her head heavily. Finally, she wasn't as afraid as before.
This made Xu Que heave a sigh of relief. He raised his head and glanced at the people of Water Back Village. He then said, "Oh yes, Xiao Rou, let the people of Water Back Village continue to kneel. Tell them that they are not allowed to leave until the sun sets."
After giving his instructions, Xu Que walked towards the village.
Along the way, he met Da Zhuang and the rest. They had brought the other villagers and were late.
When the crowd saw him, they hurriedly asked, "Little brother, are you hurt? Where's Big Panther and the rest? "
Xu Que hurriedly stopped them and said, "Fellow villagers, there's no need to go. I've already taught Big Panther and the rest a lesson. Now, they're kneeling at the entrance of the village to reflect."
"Ah! Really? "The crowd was surprised.
"Of course it's true. I can even beat wild beasts, let alone Big Panther!" Xu Que laughed.
The villagers were elated and shouted, "Good job, little brother."
"Aiya! I'm flattered. "Xu Que smiled with his eyes squinted. He liked this kind of pretentiousness.
…
Back at Xiao Rou's house, Xu Que lay down on the small wooden bed and sighed to the sky.
He knew that once Da Zhuang and the rest found out about his identity, they would only be left with fear. Even if they didn't feel fear, they wouldn't be able to chat with him as casually as before.
"Ai, forget it. Anyway, I can't stay here forever. After I've helped them settle the tribute issue, it's time for me to leave. The world is so big, I have to see it for myself. "
Xu Que pulled himself together and sat up on the bed.
He rolled his eyes and used his consciousness to call out the system.
Immediately, a personal information interface appeared in front of him:
Host: Xu Que
Cultivation Level: Foundation Building Stage Level 1 (Small Success)
Acting Tough Points: 15 points
Skills: Beginner's Level
Skills: Soaring Dragons Nine Transformations (0.1%, Mastered First Transformation)
Occupation: None
Position: Prince Consort of the Eastern Continent Fire Empire
… …
"Eh, the progress of the Soaring Dragons Nine Transformations has changed to 0.1? Is it because I just used it once? "
Xu Que exclaimed in surprise. It seemed like spells could be used to increase the progress. However, the speed seemed to be a little slow.
He wasn't satisfied with this speed. After muttering to himself for a while, he opened up his storage space and looked at the treasures and spells that he had stolen from the Celestial Sect's treasury.
"Just in time to try out the recycling function."
Xu Que mumbled to himself as he started to look at the descriptions of the spells.
"Light Body Technique. Eh, it seems like I can use it myself. I'll keep it for now." The first spell that entered his sight was the basic spell of the Celestial Sect, . Xu Que remembered that he hadn't learnt any spells related to physical movement and was instantly interested.
He then continued to look around and various Celestial Sect spells came into his sight.
"Fire Cloud Fist, Fiery Flame Sword Technique, Dark Flame Sword Technique … All of them are useless!"
After looking at dozens of spells, Xu Que shook his head and looked down on them.
After all, this was the Fire Empire. Almost all the cultivators had fire-type spiritual roots. Hence, the spells that they learnt were all related to fire.
However, Xu Que felt that these spells were too ordinary. They weren't the most precious spells of the Celestial Sect. Hence, he kept the Light Body Technique and gave the rest to the system to recycle.
"Ding … Successfully recycled . Obtained 3 points of Skill Essence."
"Ding … Successfully recycled . Obtained 5 points of Skill Essence."
"Ding … Successfully recycled . Obtained 8 points of Skill Essence."
"Ding … Successfully recycled …"
