Xu Que was alone the first time he went, but on this trip back to the Four Great Continents, he brought Zixia Fairy along.

Of course, he also had to include Duan Jiude, the unwanted third wheel and stepchild!

When Xu Que had arrived, he didn’t think it would end up this way. He was even prepared for a circumstance where Zixia Fairy would want to teach him a hard lesson.

However, the resulting situation had far exceeded his expectations. He had gone from worry to surprise, because Zixia Fairy had reached out to him.

Although her current attitude still seemed very aloof and cold, Xu Que wasn’t panicking.

He could see that Zixia Fairy was proud, but they had spent more than a decade together in the Illusory Realm, and this experience wasn’t something that Zixia Fairy could erase. It was also something that Xu Que couldn’t erase!

“Do you really want to go back to the Heaven Continent with me? Is it really okay to leave Xiao Rou and the others in the Celestial Cloud Continent?” As they were starting on their way, Xu Que voiced his concerns.

Zixia Fairy frowned a bit at that moment and turned her head to stare at Xu Que as she said, “Do you really want me to leave so badly?”

“…..” Xu Que realized he had misspoken and covered his face with his hands.

He was pained and upset. He shouldn’t have asked that question. It would simply make trouble for him.

“What do you mean? You think too much, Little Xuanxuan,” Xu Que uncovered his face and spoke with a sincere smile. He even made a heart shape with his hands and showed it to Zixia Fairy.

He was determined to survive this ordeal.

Only then did Zixia Fairy let Xu Que off the hook and turned to look ahead. She said indifferently, “They’re in the Celestial Cloud Continent, which is the safest. Moreover, with Xiao Rou around, no one in the Yongzhen Celestial Realm will dare to lay a single finger on Su Yun Lan and the others.”

“Does Celestial Emperor Yongzhen really value Xiao Rou so much?” Xu Que was surprised. “Even if Xiao Rou’s aptitude is amazing and seems to be in defiance of the natural order, why does the Celestial Emperor attach so much importance to her?”

“Don’t you understand? Xiao Rou has the Ancient Five Elemental Arts body, and Celestial Emperor Yongzhen has already decided she is the Celestial Emperor inheritor, and he means to cultivate her. If there are two Celestial Emperors in a Celestial Realm, their power will be limitless,” Zixia Fairy responded.

Xu Que suddenly frowned and asked, “If that’s the case, wouldn’t the Celestial Emperors of the other Celestial Realms be tempted to consider recruiting Xiao Rou?”

Zixia Fairy had previously said that the Celestial Cloud Continent had four Celestial Emperors who each ruled a Celestial Realm. “If Yongzhen Celestial Realm were to cultivate another Celestial Emperor, then how could the Celestial Emperors of the other three Celestial Realms sit and watch this while doing nothing about it?”

“You think too much. At their level, they already don’t care about power. Furthermore, when the Celestial Emperors of the other three Celestial Realms heard of Xiao Rou’s existence, they seemed to also attach a great importance to her, and each sent a lot of natural treasures.”

Speaking of this, Zixia Fairy shook her head and continued, “Although I don’t know the reasons behind it, I can see that they have no malice. At least before Xiao Rou becomes a Celestial Emperor, everything will be fine!”

“If that’s the case, then I can put my mind at ease,” Xu Que answered, smiling.

The meaning of Zixia Fairy’s words was obvious. The four Celestial Emperors all had the same intention of cultivating Xiao Rou into a Celestial Emperor. Although it wasn’t clear what the motivation was for the four of them to do so, as long as Xiao Rou hadn’t become a Celestial Emperor yet, it could be assured that they would always protect and cultivate her.

“It wasn’t easy for me to come back this time. It’s almost impossible for me to want to go back, but the Heaven Continent seal will soon be unsealed. When the time comes, it’ll be easy to go to the Celestial Cloud Continent,” Zixia Fairy said.

“That’s great,” Xu Que clapped his hands and cried out with surprise.

Zixia Fairy suddenly squinted her eyes slightly and said, “Are…you so eager to go to the Celestial Cloud Continent to meet your female confidantes?”

“I…” The smile on Xu Que’s face froze instantly.

“Ha, ha, ha,” Duan Jiude finally found an opportunity and guffawed, taking delight in Xu Que’s misfortune.

Xu Que smiled and reached his hand out to stroke Zixia Fairy’s head. He said, “You silly fool, what I meant to say was that it’s great that you can stay.”

Zixia Fairy was appeased as she heard these words. She bowed her head and the corners of her mouth seemed to hold the hint of a smile.

“Come on!”

Duan Jiude covered his chest with one hand and stared at Xu Que with wide eyes. He almost coughed out a mouthful of blood.

“D*mn, I give up and throw in the towel. I really admit defeat.”

“This arrogant bastard has a desperate desire to live.”

…..

Soon, the three of them had returned to the East Continent.

Liu Jingning and the others had already found an inn in which to rest. Xu Que used his soul search function and easily found them.

Everyone was astonished when they saw that Xu Que had brought Zixia Fairy back with him.

Buttface was completely flabbergasted and looked incredulous as he said, “F*ck, is Your Holiness dreaming? This boy can even settle things with this woman?”

SWISH!

Zixia Fairy’s murderous-looking eyes instantly locked on Buttface.

OW!

Buttface immediately curled into a ball and hid behind Xuanyuan Wanrong. He shouted, “Celestial Xuanyuan Wanrong, help me!”

Xuanyuan Wanrong quietly sat on the sidelines. No one dared to get too close to her, as if she was of a different world from the other people. Only Buttface had been wandering around her and fawning on her.

Zixia Fairy’s eyes also shifted from Buttface to Xuanyuan Wanrong. She frowned, and her face became serious.

“Well, well? A Celestial King cultivation stage?” Xuanyuan Wanrong also looked at Zixia Fairy with a similar frown as she spoke.

Xu Que stared blankly for a moment and looked at Zixia Fairy in surprise.

“Celestial King?”

“Isn’t she the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven? Why do you call her the Celestial King?”

“She’s at the threshold of becoming a Celestial King.” Zixia Fairy’s frown became even more pronounced as she spoke.

Xu Que stared again.

“What are these two women up to?”

“Wasn’t Xuanyuan Wanrong a Celestial Prime? How could she also be at the threshold of becoming a Celestial King?”

“Oh, this is interesting! Is she your female confidante?” Xuanyuan Wanrong smiled slightly and looked at Xu Que.

“Is she Jiang Hongyan?” Before Xu Que even had time to open his mouth to answer Xuanyuan Wanrong, Zixia Fairy was already looking at Xu Que and asking coolly.

“…..” A cold sweat suddenly broke out on Xu Que’s forehead.

“How did the atmosphere get so complicated again?”

“Grand master, she is not Jiang Hongyan. Jiang Hongyan is in the Heaven Continent,” Duan Jiude rushed to be the first to answer.

Buttface ran up to Xuanyuan Wanrong’s side like a lackey and pointed to Zixia Fairy and said, “Celestial Xuanyuan, she is Duan Jiude’s master and also that lad Xu Que’s woman!”

“F*ck!”

Xu Que instantly glared at him and wanted to tear Buttface, along with Duan Jiude, into pieces!

“Motherf*cking bitches, are my teammates ganging up on me?”

“Little Queque, you have so many women out there. Does your female confidante know?” Liu Jingning’s charming voice rang out at this time.

She seemed to smile and yet not smile as she took small steps and swayed leisurely from side to side, walking up to Xu Que. She seductively leaned on Xu Que’s shoulder and blew her sweet breath with her red lips toward Xu Que’s ear, “I won’t tell her. Have I moved you?”

Xu Que stood frozen in place with a look of agony across his face. “How could he be moved under such circumstances? He was completely afraid to move.”

“The Celestial King has appeared. It looks like the seal of the Heaven Continent really is about to be unsealed.” At this time, Xuanyuan Wanrong looked at the sky outside the inn and said with a faint smile, “Looks like it’s time to return to the…Heavenly Palace.”

“You…you’re the leader of the Heavenly Palace?” Zixia Fairy’s face changed expression again as she exclaimed in surprise.

“Have you heard of the Heavenly Palace? Of course, you would definitely know at your bone age,” Xuanyuan Wanrong paused for a moment and then looked at Zixia Fairy, nodding her head.

Zixia Fairy suddenly looked serious and said coldly, “Speaking of bone age, you would be considered as my senior.”

“Ah, are you saying that I’m old?” Xuanyuan Wanrong sneered coldly and stared at Zixia Fairy with a chilly look in her eyes.

The two women instantly radiated a tremendous murderous aura that enshrouded the entire inn.

All the people present turned deathly pale and felt as if they were being suffocated. It even felt difficult to gasp for breath.

Xu Que covered his face and felt pain inside!

“Is this what it’s like when the imperial harem is on fire?”

TSK! TSK! TSK! “It’s good to be young!” At this time, Liu Jingning, who had been leaning on Xu Que’s body, suddenly opened her mouth and said with a smile, “Don’t you agree, Little Queque?”

SHUSH!

Xu Que immediately gasped and looked at Liu Jingning in a panic!

“Can’t you see what’s happening right now? Why are you causing more trouble?”
