"Whoosh!"
A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky as Xu Que activated the Lightning Haste spell. In an instant, he circled the village for a radius of ten miles. He then set up the spell in four directions: North, South, East and West.
"Everything is ready. All that's left is the east wind."
Xu Que raised his head and looked up. His face froze. The immortal cultivators were getting closer and closer.
Based on their speed, it would be too late for him to sacrifice the beast blood to activate the spell.
He had to think of a way to buy time for the villagers.
After pondering for some time, Xu Que's body flickered as he leapt up the mountain.
...
At this point, the immortal cultivators had already arrived.
They were standing on their flying swords with their hands behind their backs. Their robes were fluttering in the wind. They looked majestic and had an indescribable sense of elegance and immortality.
They were led by a few elders from different sects. Their powers were extraordinary and they were already at the Golden Core Stage.
One of them was the Sunset Sect which was the closest to Pan Shan Village. They were backed by the Celestial Sect and were a subsidiary sect.
When he heard that a number of disciples from his sect had mysteriously disappeared, he made some inquiries and found out that those disciples had disappeared in pursuit of the Celestial Sect's wanted fugitives. This alerted the Sect Elders and he quickly brought some men over.
The other sects did the same. Many of them had heard that the Celestial Sect's wanted man was in Pan Shan Village. In order to obtain the bountiful reward, they all followed along.
However, this lineup of more than fifty people was just to capture a nobody in the "Qi Condensation stage" on the wanted poster. If this were to spread out, it would truly be absurd.
A few elders frowned and were about to shout out to the rogue cultivators who were trying to fish in troubled waters.
All of a sudden, at the peak of the mountain behind Pan Shan Village, a few bolts of lightning flashed across the sky. Soon after, a blurry silhouette could be seen. It was Xu Que.
The elders and disciples of the sects recognized his appearance, and they immediately said in shock, "It's you, you little rascal? Why don't you surrender now? "
Xu Que stood at the peak of the mountain and raised his head to look at the crowd of immortal cultivators. He then cursed, "Surrender your mother. If you have the guts, come down."
The few elders were stunned.
The disciples behind them were even more confused.
What was going on?
Was this guy crazy? We were the ones who came here to settle scores. Why was he the one who shouted back?
"Bastard, you're courting death."
Immediately, one of the elders reacted. He was furious and was about to charge at Xu Que.
However, he was immediately pulled back by an old man beside him.
"Wait, it might be a trap."
The moment these words came out, the few elders became vigilant.
One of them quickly scanned Xu Que with his Divine Sense, and his expression changed abruptly.
"How is this possible? This person's cultivation level … is already at the completion level."
"What?"
Immediately, the cultivators at the side were all shocked.
The wanted poster clearly wrote that he was at the Qi Condensation stage. How many days had passed? This person became a Core Formation cultivator? How was this possible?
"Not good. This kid must have hidden his cultivation level and tricked the entire Celestial Sect."
"That's right. No wonder so many of my sect's disciples have disappeared without a trace. They must have fallen into his trap and fallen into his hands."
"His cultivation level might be higher than the Core Formation Stage. Now, he wants to play the same trick and trick us into going down."
"Everyone stop and rest at the top of the mountain. Do not go near Pan Shan Village."
The few elders of the Sect gave out their orders.
As a result, this majestic troop suddenly changed direction and rushed towards the opposite mountain.
Xu Que cooperated and clenched his fists tightly, pretending to be unwilling and pitiful.
This expression was seen by the other cultivators. Immediately, someone spoke out excitedly, "Elder Liu is indeed perceptive. This person's face is filled with unwillingness. It must be because Elder Liu saw through his evil plot."
The other elders followed suit, "Elder Liu has sharp eyes. If it wasn't for your reminder, I'm afraid all of us would have fallen into this bastard's trap."
"Everyone, you're flattering me." Elder Liu stroked his beard and laughed as he nodded his head.
Unbeknownst to him, Xu Que's mind was ringing with the system notification. He had successfully acted tough again and was rewarded with a few act tough points. This made him extremely happy.
More importantly, he managed to stall for time.
Xu Que was laughing in his heart. However, on the outside, he maintained a look of unwillingness. He grunted coldly and shouted out to the group of cultivators, "Consider yourselves lucky. My master has said that whoever dares to step into Pan Shan Village will be killed without mercy. Those people yesterday are the best examples."
When everyone heard this, they sucked in a breath of cold air.
Master?
Damn it, how treacherous!
So this person's master is here too. He's hiding in the dark and plotting against us.
No wonder so many Core Formation Stage disciples disappeared without a trace. They were all killed by this person's master.
The few elders frowned and looked at each other before asking Xu Que, "Who is your master?"
Xu Que laughed out loud and placed his hands behind his back. He then replied coldly, "Hehe, you bunch of trash. What right do you have to know my master's name? If you know what's good for you, quickly kneel down and kowtow to Pan Shan Village. After that, get lost. If you offend my master, he will definitely empty your Sect's treasury and wipe out your entire Sect. "
"You're looking for death …" An elder with a fiery temper was fuming with anger. He held onto his flying sword and was about to rush forward.
However, he was held back by someone else. It was Elder Liu.
"Hold on. This person is really sinister. Can't you tell? He's obviously trying to provoke us and trick us into going over. "
"Besides, this person's master's cultivation level is definitely not simple. He's definitely stronger than us. If not, he wouldn't be so fearless. Everyone, please calm down."
As soon as Elder Liu finished speaking, everyone felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over their heads. They shivered and woke up from their stupor. They were all thinking that it was a close shave. They were almost tricked again!
"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. The reward is 20 act tough points!"
Xu Que stood at the peak of the mountain behind Pan Shan Village. After hearing Elder Liu's words and everyone's reactions, he heard the system's notification of the reward for successfully acting tough.
It wasn't easy. It was rare for him to meet such a pig-like opponent.
Thus, he placed his hands on his waist and stood at the peak of the mountain as he shouted at the group of cultivators.
"Come on, come and catch me."
"At most, I'll fight you with one hand!"
"Add a leg?"
"Are you coming or not? If you're not coming, I'm leaving. "
"Damn it, you're really not coming?"
"Ai, I've been looking for a worthy opponent in my entire life and yet I can't find one. How lonely!"
"Could it be that I'm destined to be undefeatable in this lifetime? From now on, I should change my name to Dugu Qiubai. "
Xu Que put on a look of loneliness as he looked up to the sky and sighed.
"..."
The faces of the cultivators opposite him were twitching as they cursed in their hearts.
Undefeatable your sister!
Dugu Qiubai your sister!
You're just a Core Bearing Stage cultivator and you're acting tough?
