The next day, the sky was bright.
Xu Que was wearing a black robe and carrying his Dark Buster Sword on his back. He even had a strand of green foxtail grass dangling from his mouth. He was humming a tune as he leisurely walked along the mountain path.
He had been rushing for an entire night and was heading towards the Imperial City.
However, this place was located at the border of the Fire Empire. Not only was it desolate, the journey was also extremely long. Even if he were to travel day and night, he would need at least one to two months to reach the Imperial City.
However, Xu Que was mentally prepared. He was prepared to kill some beasts along the way to accumulate experience and level up.
After all, there were many dangerous people in the Imperial City.
For example, the Emperor was an Infant Transformation Staged cultivator at level six. He was one level higher than the Celestial Sect's Sect Leader, Zhang Dan Shan.
Previously, Xu Que had used his Buddha's Fiery Lotus to fight against Zhang Dan Shan. Furthermore, it was enhanced by the Soaring Dragon Nine Transformations. That was Xu Que's strongest move.
However, in the end, he didn't hurt Zhang Dan Shan at all. All he did was tear his clothes, making him look like he was in a sorry state.
Now that Xu Que was heading to the Imperial City, he would have to face the Emperor of the Fire Empire, who was even stronger than Zhang Dan Shan. The pressure on him was not small.
After all, when one reached the Infant Transformation Stage, it was extremely difficult to raise one's cultivation level. Even those who were extremely talented would need at least ten years to raise one's cultivation level. They might even need countless treasures in order to raise one's cultivation level.
Zhang Dan Shan and the Emperor of the Fire Empire seemed to be only one level apart. However, if the two of them were to fight, Zhang Dan Shan would definitely be defeated in less than ten rounds. The difference between them wasn't just one level.
This was because the amount of time and treasures required to raise one level was more than enough to cultivate ten Original Infant Staged cultivators.
Hence, Xu Que's mood wasn't particularly good. Previously, he had killed many people who were of a higher cultivation level than him. However, they were all small fries. If he were to fight against an Infant Transformation Staged cultivator, he wouldn't stand a chance at all.
"Ai, how depressing!"
Xu Que looked up to the sky and sighed as he continued walking.
Not long after, he climbed over a mountain and arrived at the foot of the mountain. Not far ahead was a small teahouse.
Because this road was an official road, the area within a thousand miles was relatively desolate. Whether it was cultivators or mortals, as long as they passed by, they would usually rest here.
When Xu Que walked over, there were only a few mortals sitting in the teahouse. It seemed that they had just arrived, and the waiter was busy pouring tea for them.
"Waiter, give me a bottle of Sprite!" Xu Que found an empty table, sat down, and shouted.
The waiter was stunned. "Sir, what … what is Sprite? Our store doesn't have it! "
"What do you have?" Xu Que asked.
At the same time, his eyes lit up. Originally, he just wanted to play a little joke with the waiter, but after saying that, he remembered that there was no Sprite, Coke, or beer in this world. If he could make a few bottles in the future, wouldn't he be able to show off?
"Dear customer, we have top-notch tea and some dishes. Please feel free to order anything you need!" The waiter said with an honest smile at this time.
Xu Que was already immersed in the vision of showing off in the future. He nodded absent-mindedly and said, "Hmm, any pot of tea please!"
"Alright!" The waiter yelled and ran off.
Not long after, a burst of dense footsteps came from afar, mixed with the sound of carriage wheels rolling on the ground.
The people in the teahouse were attracted by the sound. They turned around and immediately started to discuss in low voices.
"Oh, this formation, it must be some high official or noble!"
"Yes, after being here for so long, this is the first time I have seen such an imposing group. Could it be that they are from the Imperial City?"
"What Imperial City? Look at the direction they are going. They are going to the Imperial City. Maybe they are envoys from a neighboring country."
"No, no, the carriage is hanging the flag of our Fire Empire. How could they be envoys from a neighboring country?"
"I guess they are envoys from our Fire Empire who have just returned from a neighboring country. Hey, let's not talk about it. Let's drink …"
…
Xu Que was also looking at the group of people passing by on the official road. Their aura was indeed not simple. It was a group of about two hundred people. Among them, there were more than a hundred cultivators, ranging from the Core Bearing Stage to the Original Infant Stage. They were very valiant.
Some of them were riding horses, some were walking, but all of them were guarding the luxurious carriage in the middle of the group.
Although the carriage was completely sealed, Xu Que could still sense that there were two people sitting inside. Moreover, they were both Golden Core Stage cultivators!
What kind of person's identity was so precious that they actually needed such a large group of people? Moreover, even Original Infant Stage cultivators could only guard outside the carriage!
Xu Que was a little suspicious, but he was too lazy to think too much about it. He shook his head slightly and picked up the hot tea that the waiter had just brought over and slowly drank it.
…
Inside the carriage that passed by the teahouse, there were two beautiful women with extraordinary temperaments.
One of them was a woman who was dressed in a plain jade brocade robe. Her black hair draped over her shoulders and a jade hairpin was inserted into it. On her delicate and sweet face, there was a faint smile hanging on her face. She was like an orchid and her beautiful eyes revealed a kind of elegance. She was like a peony flower that could make one's heart and soul happy!
Beside her, the other woman was even more beautiful. Her black hair was tied up high and her skin was smooth and creamy. Her face was as white as snow and it looked as though it was covered in ice that wouldn't melt for ten thousand years. Her eyes had a kind of arrogance that seemed to look down on everything. It was obvious that she was an ice beauty with a high status!
The plainly dressed woman looked at the ice beauty with a smile and laughed softly, "My Princess, who made you angry again? Ever since we returned to the Fire Empire, your face has been so tense. Be careful of wrinkles. "
If Xu Que was in the carriage and saw the ice beauty, he would definitely use his Dark Buster Sword to slap her.
That's right. Because she was the only Princess of the Fire Empire, Ji Wan Qing. Her title was the Flaming Sun Princess!
This familiar face was one that Xu Que was most familiar with. From what he could remember, he once had sex with the owner of this face for seven days and seven nights until his cultivation level was sucked dry and his body was tossed into this faraway land.
But the aura that the Princess was emitting right now, if Xu Que could see it, he would definitely be shocked. This was because from what he remembered, the Flaming Sun Princess wasn't this cold and aloof. In fact, she was more like a little bird that was attached to humans.
"Zi Xuan, do you still remember Xu Que?" The Flaming Sun Princess looked at the plainly dressed woman and asked calmly.
"Xu Que?" The plainly dressed woman paused as she blinked her beautiful eyes and nodded her head, "I remember. Ever since we entered the border, we've heard rumors about Xu Que. But these rumors were too exaggerated. A Core Bearing Stage cultivator was actually able to kill an Infant Transformation Stage cultivator. Moreover, the person he killed was an Original Infant Stage Elder and he managed to escape unscathed. I'm sure that the rumors were exaggerated. "
"That's not it." The Flaming Sun Princess shook her head gently and expressionlessly replied, "I'm talking about the other Xu Que. The one from six years ago!"
When the plainly dressed woman heard this, her face was filled with doubt. After thinking for some time, her mouth opened slightly as if she had remembered something. She then exclaimed, "Are you talking about the one who was recruited by the Fire Emperor to be the Prince Consort six years ago? I remember now. That's right. That's right. That fake Prince Consort was also named Xu Que. How is he now? "
