As for Shang Wu, Xu Que would definitely not let him stay!
Xu Que had already given face to Situ Haitang and Shang Ling. He had let Shang Wu go when he was in the Snow City.
However, when he learned that Shang Wu had gone to seek revenge from overseas, Xu Que had made up his mind to kill Shang Wu, but he didn't show it. He just made fun of Shang Wu.
Now that Shang Wu had brought people from the Gong Family from overseas to the Imperial City, Xu Que naturally killed them all.
Of course, he was still very generous on the surface. He killed the Gong Family in front of so many people, but let Shang Wu go, which made many people believe it was true. In this way, he could explain it to Situ Haitang.
However, Xu Que had secretly sent out his Thunder Illusion Body to kill Shang Wu and destroy his body to get rid of the evidence!
Everything was done perfectly and airtight.
That night, Xu Que gathered all the Imperial Guards and Generals and held a small meeting for them.
Xu Que told them seriously that they had to keep the matter of killing the Gong Family a secret. If anyone leaked any information to the Gong Family, the whole Water Nation would be in trouble.
Since they had become Imperial Guards or Generals, they were naturally loyal to the Water Nation and the Water Empress. Otherwise, when Liu Jingning had seized power, they wouldn't have been so stubborn.
Therefore, after hearing Xu Que's words, they all nodded and swore not to leak any information.
Overnight, all the Imperial Guards helped to destroy the bodies of Gong Feng and the rest of the Gong Family members and repair the palace quickly.
Xu Que went back to his bedroom, closed the door, and took out five Storage Rings from the System!
These were the Storage Rings of Gong Feng and the rest of the Gong Family members. After Xu Que killed them, the System picked them up automatically.
In the past, Xu Que didn't even bother to check the Storage Rings he got after killing people. But this time, the Gong Family members from overseas, and one of them was the Third Master of the Gong Family. Xu Que thought it was necessary to check them. Maybe there was something good in them.
"Little brat, what are you doing? Sneaky. " At this time, Buttface sneakily came over with an expectant look, thinking that Xu Que was up to something again.
Xu Que rolled his eyes and took out five storage rings. "Since we're going overseas, we have to find out more about these people's background!" he said.
"Damn, when did you get it from them? Why didn't I see it? " Buttface was shocked. It had been observing the battle in the dark, but Xu Que had been quick and decisive from the beginning to the end. After killing his opponent, he did not seem to have touched his Storage Ring. But now, he actually took out five of his opponent's Storage Rings.
"If you see it, how am I supposed to show my face in public?" Xu Que sneered. "Do you think I'll tell you that the System will pick it up automatically?"
Then, he opened up his Qi, erased the Qi from the five storage rings, and probed inside.
However, what he found disappointed Xu Que. Most of the four old men's Storage Rings were Spirit Stones and some low-level magic arts.
Xu Que was most concerned about the Star Rank magic arts that the last two old men had used, but he did not find them in the rings. Obviously, they were not qualified to carry those magic arts with them.
"It's a pity. Except for the magic artifacts, the rest are rubbish."
Xu Que shook his head and probed Gong Feng's Storage Ring with his Soul Strength.
Normally, as the third young master of the Gong Family, Gong Feng's Storage Ring should be special.
However, when Xu Que probed the ring with his Soul Strength, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis, which made him feel a chill down his spine. His pupils suddenly enlarged.
"Whoosh!" Xu Que quickly withdrew his Soul Strength and threw the ring away.
However, it was still too late. A red light suddenly shot out from the ring, piercing through the air and attacking Xu Que.
This red light could automatically follow Xu Que's Soul Strength and directly lock on his eyebrows. It was as fast as lightning.
Xu Que's expression changed. He was about to call the System for help.
However, at this critical moment, a dog's paw suddenly appeared.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the red light was blocked by the dog's paw. In an instant, it exploded into strands of red dots, which were scattered by the wind and gradually faded away. However, some of the red dots still floated to Xu Que's body and disappeared.
Xu Que did not notice anything wrong. He looked at Buttface in surprise and asked, "What happened?"
"I don't know! When I saw the red dot, I subconsciously rushed to it. I didn't expect that it would be destroyed by my paw. It seems that nothing happened. "Buttface was also confused.
The corner of Xu Que's mouth twitched. When you saw the red dot, you subconsciously rushed to it? Damn, this Buttface is really a dog!
"Wait, I seem to remember that this is a kind of mark!" Suddenly, Buttface screamed and looked at Xu Que. "Little brat, look at your arm!"
Hearing that, Xu Que immediately pulled up his sleeve. However, his arm was white and clean. There was nothing on it.
"What? That's not right. Logically speaking, there should be a red dot! Well, maybe because it was destroyed by my paw, the effect of the mark has been weakened! "Buttface justified himself.
Xu Que rolled his eyes again. "What the hell is this?"
"This is just a kind of mark. You killed the Third Young Master of the Gong Family. When you go overseas, the Gong Family will sense the mark and know that you killed the Third Young Master. But it's not a big deal. The effect of the mark has been weakened. As long as you don't get close to the Gong Family, you won't be able to sense it. And the mark will disappear after a while!" Buttface said calmly.
Xu Que was surprised. He didn't expect the Gong Family to have such a trick.
However, since the red light had disappeared, Xu Que didn't care about it anymore. He continued to search Gong Feng's storage ring.
He was shocked by what he saw.
There were hundreds of high quality Spirit Stones, a Star Rank magic art, and several Eight Star magic weapons. This kind of wealth was comparable to that of any country in the Five Elements Mountain.
"D * mn, he's indeed the Young Master. Looks like if I'm short of money in the future, I can just rob the disciples of these big families!" Xu Que smiled.
He put the Star Rank magic art into the storage space of the System. After a while, he found that this magic art was the Star Rank magic art that the two old men had used. It was called Void Annihilation Cut!
As the name suggested, it was a magic art that used the power of the Void to create a crack in the Void and kill the opponent.
However, there was a price to pay for using this magic art. When it was driven by the True Core Strength, the power was not strong. If it was driven by the True Core Strength, the power would be extremely horrible.
"It's too weak!" Xu Que couldn't help but shake his head.
In his opinion, this magic art was no different from a life-saving skill. If one was not forced into a desperate situation, he would not be willing to sacrifice his True Core Strength to fight back.
Others might need it, but Xu Que didn't. He had the Divine Escape Spell, so he was not afraid of being forced into a desperate situation.
"Forget it. I'd better not practice it!"
At last, Xu Que gave up the idea of practicing this magic art. It was too weak and unnecessary. However, he didn't give it back to the System, because he didn't know when it would come in handy.
…
The next day, the Imperial Palace returned to its usual appearance, as if nothing had happened.
Xu Que also felt that everything was almost settled. It was time to go.
He said goodbye to Zi Xuan and left two Teleportation Arrays to protect the Imperial Palace and the Imperial City. Then he packed up and went to the Water Empress's bedroom with Buttface.
Zi Xuan came to see him off alone. She said calmly, "Xu Que, remember my sister's words. Don't make trouble when you are overseas!"
"Stirring up trouble doesn't sound like something your sister would say. Are you worried about me?" Xu Que asked with a smile.
Zi Xuan's face suddenly turned red. She snorted and said, "Who's worried about you? I'm more than happy to see you go, so that you don't continue to harm the Water Nation! "
"All right, all right, I'm leaving! Buttface, enter the Teleportation Array! "Xu Que waved his hand with a smile and stepped into the Ancient Teleportation Array with Buttface.
The Ancient Teleportation Array was just a huge round platform made of Spirit Stones. There were six grooves on the edge of the platform, which were connected by dense spell patterns. It looked like a complicated electronic chip.
As for the six grooves, if they were connected by lines, they would form a standard hexagon.
Everything was very sophisticated. However, Xu Que didn't study it too seriously. This kind of Ancient Teleportation Array was not attractive to him.
"The travel fee is really expensive! Six grooves, six pieces of high quality Spirit Stones!" Xu Que murmured. Then he took out six purple high quality Spirit Stones and put them into the grooves one by one.
"Damn! How dare you say that?" Buttface said disdainfully. He knew very well that Xu Que was very rich. Last night, he had opened five storage rings of the Gong Family and obtained hundreds of high quality Spirit Stones.
Xu Que ignored him and put the Spirit Stones into the grooves quickly.
Boom —!
Suddenly, with a loud sound, the whole Teleportation Array began to operate …
