Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Damn!”

Xu Que and Duan Jiude cursed at the same time!

Xu Que felt Buttface was shameless. He had just ignored Xu Que and tried to flatter Jiang Hongyan by offering suggestions to her directly!

Duan Jiude, who was annoyed by Buttface’s move, shouted, “Holy Senior, don’t believe Buttface’s nonsense! That brilliant idea was figured out by me!”

Puff! “Duan Jiude, you get lost! How dare you disrespect your Patriarch! Doesn’t your consciousness hurt?” Buttface retorted.

“You are the Patriarch of nobody! Also, I left the Mighty Sect a long time ago! Just step aside, I will offer my suggestions to the Holy Senior!” Duan Jiude stepped forward by pushing Buttface aside.

“Behave yourself! I am the Prime Minister appointed by the Holy Senior personally! How dare you disrespect me?” Buttface also tried to push Duan Jiude aside.

“I will be the Prime Minister!” Duan Jiude and Buttface started to push each other.

Damn!

Xu Que’s face darkened. Duan Jiude and Buttface were too shameless. He couldn’t believe that they were fighting for the position of the Prime Minister of the Xuanzhen Continent in the future! That was why they were behaving so well suddenly. They were not only intimidated by Jiang Hongyan’s strength, but they also tried to impress her so that they could be promoted to the Prime Minister in future!

“That’s enough. You two could offer your suggestions together!” Jiang Hongyan interrupted the quarreling between Buttface and Duan Jiude with a smile.

Xu Que’s eyes widened, “If either of you dares to speak any more nonsense, I will...play an old CD to recall our friendship from previous times!” He changed his tone and replaced his threats with some lyrics! The reason was that Xu Que had an inexplicable familiarity with the pitch-black fire stick stolen by Duan Jiude!

“What the hell...is this?” Xu Que asked in surprise. As the fire stick came closer to him, he felt a connection with his heart, as if he had known this stick since when he was born!

“Heh-heh, this is a broken stick. Please ignore its ugly appearance. It is a divine artifact that could save the four continents actually!” Duan Jiude said proudly. He didn’t notice Xu Que’s weird expression!

Buttface also stepped forward and said, “Frankly speaking, this stick was collected from the Mighty Sect by me! Therefore, 90 percent of the credit in saving the four continents should be mine!”

Jiang Hongyan was surprised a bit. She looked at the fire stick questioningly, but she knew nothing about it.

Xu Que also frowned as that inexplicable familiarity was becoming stronger and stronger. Then he asked, “What is this thing used for?”

“Hah-hah, little brat, do you remember the seals of the Five Elements Mountain?” Buttface asked with laughter.

“The seals of the Five Elements Mountain? You mean the five Dragon Veins, right?” Xu Que said in surprise.

Buttface said, nodding his head, “Exactly. I used to tell you there are altogether six seals in the Five Elements Mountain, including the five Dragon Veins. This stick is the key to break the last seal!”

“Damn! Don’t tell me you two are going to release the creature subdued under the Five Elements Mountain!” Xu Que came to himself, his eyes wide in shock.

Although he guessed that the legendary Monkey King was subdued under the Five Elements Mountain, what if his guess was wrong? If a ferocious creature was released, it was just like cutting their own throats!

“No, no, no! There is no creature subdued under the Five Elements Mountain! Even if a creature used to be subdued there, it would have died a long time ago!” Duan Jiude said, waving his hand.

Buttface also nodded, “I can prove that!”

“Damn! Buttface, you said a creature was subdued under the Five Elements Mountain before!” Xu Que said embarrassedly.

Buttface said, “Because I lost my memory at that time. I only remembered that I had read this legend in an ancient book. When I devoured the blood essences in the Mysterious Land, I regained some memories. So, I remembered I used to investigate the Five Elements Mountain as the Kylin Patriarch in those years!”

“Oh? You have investigated the Five Element Mountains?” Xu Que asked curiously.

“Yes! I remembered I went there once. That area is full of perils and horrible seal strength! Although I failed to reach the very inside, I am sure there is no living thing under the Five Elements Mountain!” Buttface said.

Xu Que was shocked a bit. Could this just be a coincidence? Isn’t the Monkey King subdued under the Five Elements Mountain?

At this time, Jiang Hongyan shook her head slightly and said, “It may not be necessarily like that! According to the memories of my past life, an ancient ferocious creature is subdued under the Five Elements Mountain indeed. However, nobody knew if it was a person or a monster! But it is just there!”

“What? Oh, no!” Buttface said diffidently.

Jiang Hongyan said, “As you said, the Five Elements Mountain is full of seals. You didn’t find any living thing there. Maybe its aura was blocked by the seals, or...that creature has reached a very high stage. According to my knowledge, cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage can unite with the heavens and become formless! Nobody could sense their existence easily!”

“I see. Holy Senior is so majestic and mighty! You will rule this world forever!” Buttface flattered pathetically for he was still longing for the position of Prime Minister!

Xu Que’s lips twitched, and he almost beat up Buttface with his palm However, he had something more urgent now on his mind and he needed to get some information.

“OK, stop talking about the creature under the Five Elements Mountain. You said you could break the last seal. How could the four continents benefit from that?” Xu Que asked.

Duan Jiude sneered, “Young man, for this issue, you are the one to be blamed!”

“Me?” Xu Que looked surprised.

“Exactly! Actually, the six seals of the Five Elements Mountain are one of the spell cores of the four continent’s shackles. You destroyed the five dragon veins of the Five Elements Mountain, which weakened the shackles of the four continents remarkably!” Duan Jiude sighed.

“Crap! I only destroyed three of them. The other two veins were destroyed by you!” Xu Que cursed immediately.

However, he was quite surprised and embarrassed in his heart. I didn’t expect the crisis of the four continents to be caused by me! This is so embarrassing!

“Alas, I didn’t know it at that time, or I would never have destroyed them!” Duan Jiude said helplessly.

Xu Que rolled his eyes and said, “In this same way, why are you going to destroy the last seal?”

“Compared to a temporary repair, a fundamental solution is more effective!” Buttface replied with an unfathomable expression.

Bang!

“Speak human language!” Xu Que slapped Buttface with his palm directly.

“Ouch!” Buttface cried miserably, and replied in a hurry, “It means we will abandon that spell core! Half of the Five Elements Mountain’s spell core has been destroyed. It is not functional at all but keeps consuming the Spiritual Qi of the entire shackle. So, we could just destroy the last seal and abandon the entire spell core directly. At that time, the Spiritual Qi in the shackle will become intense again, which could protect the shackle for another 40 to 50 years!”

“Really?” Jiang Hongyan’s eyes lit up in surprise.

“Yes! I’ve found the spell drawing of the shackles for the four continents in the ruins of the Mighty Sect. Now I know the shackles just like I know the palm of my own hand!” Buttface said definitely.

Xu Que frowned slightly and shook his head. He didn’t think it was a good idea! Although the destruction of the last seal in the Five Elements Mountain could buy more time for the shackles, which was a good thing! However, it was also risky. If an ancient creature was released after the destruction of the last seal, it would be disastrous! It would be OK if the creature released was the Monkey King. What if it was not? Then, the four continents would be slaughtered by that creature!

We can’t do that!

“Holy shit! Little brat, why did you shake your head? Isn’t my suggestion a good method?” Buttface asked.

“I didn’t say it is not a good idea, but it is just unnecessary!” Xu Que replied with a profound gaze.

“Why is it unnecessary?” Duan Jiude and Buttface asked at the same time.

Even Jiang Hongyan was also surprised by his words. She turned her beautiful eyes to Xu Que gently.

Xu Que sneered, “I won’t talk about the risk under the Five Elements Mountain! Because...five years are long enough for me! Five years from now, I will kill any cultivator who dares to invade us! I will keep my word!”

“Holy shit!” Buttface was stunned immediately.

Duan Jiude was also shocked, “What do you mean? You mean you are capable of confronting the powerhouse at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage in five years, right?”

Jiang Hongyan was surprised and looked at Xu Que in delight.

“Exactly! Five years from now, I will reach the summit of the Form Synthesis Stage or the Crossing Calamity Stage! At that time, cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage will be just like ants in front of me!” Xu Que said with magnificent confidence.

Whoosh!

He took out a reel of jade slips and put it on the table.

Duan Jiude and Buttface were surprised by his move and asked, “What are you going to do?”

Xu Que replied with a smile, “The Xuanzhen Continent has sent us a written war challenge, right? We shall return their kindness by also sending a written war challenge now!”

“Holy crap! Are you really going to do that?” Duan Jiude was moved.

Leaving aside whether he could confront the cultivator at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage five years from now, it was so...exciting to send a written war challenge to the Xuanzhen Continent now!

“Count me in!” Duan Jiude said in delight.

“Don’t forget me! I will write something first!” Buttface said in wild joy and tried to reach his paws to the jade slips.

“Step aside! Do you know how to write?” Xu Que pushed Buttface aside and started to write on the jade slips with a big brush pen.

...

Cultivators of the four continents were shocked by the news the next day, which brought them into an uproar again.

“My God!”

“What happened?”

“The combination of Xu Que, Duan Jiude, and Buttface has started to make trouble again! They prepared a written war challenge and asked somebody to deliver it to the Xuanzhen Continent through the Infinite Sea in the North Sea!”

“Holy crap! I didn’t expect they would send a written war challenge to the Xuanzhen Continent!”

“This is crazy! Don’t they worry their letter may annoy the powerhouses of the Xuanzhen Continent?”

“There is nothing to worry about! Anyway, they will invade us anyway in five years. We must defend our dignity now!”

“What does the war challenge say?”

“Hah-hah, we’ve copied the war challenge through inscription rubbing. Now it’s being circulated in the four continents!”

“Just show us!”

...

That day, many copies of the war challenge were circulated in the four continents publicly. Numerous cultivators were shocked by the content.

[War Challenge]:

“The four continents received the war challenge from the Xuanzhen Continent several days ago!

I, Xu Que, hereby express my great astonishment and a vigorous denouncement, as well as a strong protest to the Xuanzhen Continent by representing the Exploding Heavens Faction!

The war challenge of the Xuanzhen Continent has caused mental trauma to countless cultivators in the four continents. If you don’t apologize and make compensation for our mental stress, when the shackle breaks in five years, the Exploding Heavens Faction will slaughter the Xuanzhen Continent! Because...

Anyone who dares to invade us will be punished no matter how far the invaders are away from us!”

— by Xu Que of the Exploding Heavens Faction!

“What Xu Que said is right!” — by Duan Jiude of the Exploding Heavens Faction!

“Growl! Growl! Growl!” — by Buttface of the Exploding Heavens Faction!
