On the same day, a piece of news suddenly spread like wildfire in the front-line camps. A mysterious man who claimed to be Qin Wei's enemy was said to have witnessed the battle between Qin Wei and Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction. He swore that Qin Wei's soulbound weapon got destroyed and that he was seriously injured. The mysterious man even stated that he stole the lifespan of more than 1,000 years from both of them while they were distracted.
When the news first came out, nobody believed it at all. How could Qin Wei, a great cultivator at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage and the protector of the Tong Tian Nation, be defeated by a young man at the Form Synthesis Stage, and even have his soulbound weapon destroyed? However, Xu Que assumed the identity of Li Bai and appeared the very next day. He pretended to pass by the camp and was immediately pulled aside by a group of cultivators, asking whether or not the rumors were true.
Xu Que chided righteously, "I, Li Bai, stand here as I strongly condemn the mysterious man who attacked us! Why did you steal my lifespan as well when your hatred is with General Qin? You must be held accountable for this!"
Then he gathered a group of people like he was holding a press conference and said, "The battle between General Qin and me was not as exaggerated as you thought. I assure you that General Qin's Celestial Artifact was never destroyed, for I had just made a small crack. Therefore, although General Qin suffered serious injuries because of that, there was no major impediment. He should recover fully after a few decades of secluded meditation!"
Everyone who heard this stood stunned in disbelief.
Xu Que added, "I hope that the enemies of General Qin can have a bit of goodness in their hearts and not take advantage of General Qin's injury to seek revenge. That would be just wrong! Well, I have to leave the front line now. Take care of yourselves!" After Xu Que had finished his speech, he hurriedly excused himself and left behind a group of stone-faced cultivators.
At first, when the news came out, they did not believe even half a word. However, Xu Que had now come out personally to clarify the situation. Although what he said was as good as not explaining anything, he had proved the validity of the news.
All of a sudden, people were shocked and rushed to tell each other about this new development. In a short time, all kinds of news had spread throughout the camp, and even to many nearby remote ancient cities, which quickly went viral.
"Big news!"
"Form Synthesis Stage Cultivator Li Bai, from the Exploding Heavens Faction, has defeated the general with a Celestial Artifact!"
"Shocking!"
"Li Bai from the Exploding Heavens Faction has emerged! General Qin Wei suffered a crushing defeat and a heavy blow, with even his soulbound weapon cracked!"
"The latest news!"
"Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction appealed to the enemies of General Qin to speak with civility, to build a new trend, and to carry forward national virtues, and not to seek revenge while General Qin was injured!"
...
As the news went wild, more and more people came to know about General Qin's defeat. When the news reached the Divine Son Division, the remaining dozen Divine Sons were dumbstruck. Qin Wei was so angry that he smashed several tables and chairs.
"Damn, is that Li Bai an idiot? The way he phrased it is tantamount to reminding my enemies to take revenge!"
...
The news had even reached the Heaven Orc Tribe. Countless Heaven Orc giants swore.
"Talk about civility and creating a new trend?"
"Promoting national virtues?"
"Crap! Talk, my ass! Promote your head!"
"That fella has done all sorts of dirty deeds and still has the face to appeal to others?"
...
Ultimately, the impact of the news got bigger and bigger. After all, the issue itself was controversial. On the one hand, you have the renowned General who protected the Nation, an existence who had attained the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage.
On the other hand, you have an obscure young man at the Form Synthesis Stage, but he had now become famous with this battle.
The contrast of strength between the two sides had shaken countless people, and they could not stop debating about it.
...
Meanwhile, Xu Que the litigant had left the front line with Jiang Hongyan and made a move for the central area of Tong Tian Nation. Along the way, Jiang Hongyan had also come across the news about the "Battle between Qin Wei and Li Bai" and had mixed feelings.
"Boy, your move to kill him with a borrowed knife is so very clever!" She chuckled.
Xu Que boasted, "Little Missy, this is the best way to kill people! You still have lots to learn!"
"But you've got to be careful now that you've exposed your strength. I'm afraid you've caught the attention of that man!" Jiang Hongyan reminded Xo Que.
Xu Que smiled and said, "That's what I'm aiming for, to attract his attention. Otherwise... how can we lead him away?"
"No! You might have injured Qin Wei severely, but that person's strength was head and shoulders above Qin Wei!" Jiang Hongyan suddenly looked grim. She was serious.
Xu Que also fell silent. If not for the fact that he had an Ultra Invincible Emblem on him, he couldn't have hurt Qin Wei like that. At most, he would have landed a few King of Tough-Acting Fists, and then turned around and ran! Of course, if he hadn't spent too much Taoist Connotation during his Heavenly Tribulations that day, he could have killed Qin Wei with the help of the Ultra Invincible Emblem.
However, there were not many "ifs"in this world. Kismet and fate decided everything. However, isn't Kismet also a kind of strength? Thinking of this, Xu Que smiled indifferently and looked at Jiang Hongyan. He asked, "How big is the gap in strength between the Emperor and Qin Wei?"
Jiang Hong Yan pondered, and said softly, "I speak from my memories before my reincarnation. The Emperor could kill Qin Wei within 50 rounds. He had two Celestial Artifacts, one for offense and one for defense. Within the Xuanzhen Continent, there are only a handful of people who could compete with them."
"Two Celestial Artifacts?" Xu Que's eyes widened.
How could they fight that?
Qin Wei could crush him with a broken Celestial Artifact.
Not only was the Emperor more powerful than Qin Wei, but he also possessed two Celestial Artifacts, and he took care of both his offense and defense, what the hell!
"That's right. With those two Celestial Artifacts, our chance to succeed...is slim." Jiang Hongyan nodded with a heavy heart.
Xu Que was somewhat at a loss for words, "Why are we still heading for the Imperial Palace then? That person could attain our coordinates whenever he liked. Is this not walking to our doom?"
"When have I ever told you that we were going to the Imperial Palace, little one?" Jiang Hongyan beamed suddenly, and her beautiful eyes were full of wit.
Xu Que got lost in her eyes. His impression of Jiang Hongyan's character had always been that it was calm and collected at every moment; she was mature and dignified, her temperament graceful and luxurious. However, she had now shown her rare cute side.
It almost made Xu Que shout that his old romantic heart was about to burst! No way, he must get this perfect woman quickly!
Almost immediately, Xu Que reached out and pulled Jiang Hongyan into his arms. Jiang Hongyan blanked out for a moment. Before she could speak, Xu Que gazed at her with the eyes of a domineering CEO and joked, "Little Missy, you mean to say…where are we going now? Is it an inn?"
Jiang Hongyan took a moment to digest Xu Que's words. Once she realized what he was implying, she laughed and shook her head lightly, "No! We are going to the Myriad Buddhas Sect!"
"Myriad...myriad what? Buddhas Sect?"
Xu Que was stunned. Don't be like that! Your Act-Tough Saint is wooing you this much, and you mention a Buddhist Sect at this juncture? Did you want me to be a monk? Don't! I am not that kind of person. Those little nuns in the Buddhist Sect or something…. Umm, that doesn't sound too bad either!
