Chapter 1067: The Start of a New Misfortune
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Bang!
The entire sky was pierced by a thunderous roar, millions of Holy Golden Armored Hornets, dense and jam-packed like a gigantic dark cloud, charged from far away! Their bearing was similar to troops made up of millions of demons who were wearing golden armor as they charged forward in a grand and majestic aura. It was terrifying!
In the Trap and Kill Array, numerous aces among the Immortal Cultivators were trembling in fear—their faces drained of blood. They had had a hard time trying to get rid of the millions of Heaven-Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes, and now an even more troublesome cloud of Holy Golden Armored Hornets arrived. It was truly their rotten luck!
“Uh? Something’s wrong!” Suddenly, an Elder at the Human Celestial Stage frowned and he exclaimed. He had caught sight of the leering expression on Xu Que’s face, coupled with the smug expressions on b.u.t.tface and Duan Jiude. He noticed the pungent fragrance wafting from the Array and he had a sudden realization.
That wasn’t bad luck! Clearly, they had walked into a trap!
“Xu Que, you are a shameless person, how dare you dupe us!” The Elder roared at once.
“What? You’ve misunderstood. I, Xu Que, am definitely not that kind of person!” Xu Que immediately answered him with a sense of righteousness and continued, “You didn’t know that if this Floral Dew is overused, it’ll easily lead to dry skin. So I added a little bit of honey to it, which helps nourish, whiten, and moisturize. How can you say that I duped you?”
Many of the Immortal Cultivators heard his explanation and they almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
D*mn it, dry skin? Most of them cursed to themselves. They had cultivated their skills to the Half-Celestial Stage and the Human Celestial Stage. Why would they be afraid of dry skin? Several affluent Cultivators from the East Continent’s mouths twitched fiercely; they were petrified.
When Xu Que mentioned honey, they had already guessed that it was a deliberate act!
“No wonder, no wonder he wanted to exchange the Floral Dew. It’s a big conspiracy!”
“We should have guessed it. It wasn’t his style!”
“The Great Devil is the Great Devil! Now, the Bai Family and those from Carefree Building must be crying over spilt milk!”
“But then, how did he know that there were Holy Golden Armored Hornets in the Celestial Burial Valley?”
“Yes, we’ve been here for years and never met any Holy Golden Armored Hornets!”
“Could it be he raised these Holy Golden Armored Hornets?”
“That’s a little scary!”
At the end of the discussion, everyone gasped and took in a breath of cold air. It was frightening enough for Xu Que to breed Heaven-Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes. If he was breeding the Holy Golden Armored Hornets too, that would really scare people to death. It was horrible!
On the other side of the Utmost Happiness Valley, Liu Jingning froze for a moment before she laughed again. She had guessed that Xu Que wouldn’t let go of those Immortal Cultivators that simply. However, she didn’t expect that he would be so cruel and vicious in his attacks. It was simply unbearable!
The Sect Leader of the Utmost Happiness Faction was utterly impressed by Xu Que; he was relieved and felt a sense of grat.i.tude toward him. He said resolutely, “My friend, Xu Que, is indeed brilliant and capable; the son-in-law of the Utmost Happiness Faction is definitely the perfect son-in-law in the world. That was a beautiful move!”
“Sect Leader, that’s too much!” Xu Que gently did a fist salute. He was exuding his charm and charisma, with an air of casual elegance. At that moment, the others thought that they were hallucinating. They had nearly been fooled into thinking that he was a righteous gentleman.
“Oh yes, Sect Leader!” Just then, Xu Que asked politely, “Can you help me to ask Holy Virgin Liu, when are we going to have our Nuptial Night? Uh…don’t look at me like that. I’m not a lecherous person. I just think that there’s completion only after that holy ritual. It is only then that I can truly be your son-in-law. Otherwise, I’m not worthy of the t.i.tle!”
All those present were speechless. Liu Jingning, who was usually bold and daring, was blus.h.i.+ng. She stared at the shameless Xu Que with anger.
The Sect Leader of the Utmost Happiness Faction was pa.s.sionate as he replied, “Xu Que is right. I also think that it’s time to hold the wedding and the Nuptial Night. Why don’t we choose…”
“No time is better than the present, how about today?” Xu Que interrupted immediately.
“Uh…today?” The Sect Leader of the Utmost Happiness Faction was caught by surprise. Wasn’t he too d*mn anxious? He thought to himself. The matter regarding the Immortal Cultivators hasn’t been solved yet, and you want to have your Nuptial Night?
Numerous Immortal Cultivators in the Trap and Kill Array were fuming in anger. They were superior, high-caliber beings, but now they were trapped by a fellow in the Crossing Calamity Stage. n.o.body was here to help them and they now had to deal with millions of Holy Golden Armored Hornets. As a result, that idiot disregarded them and even asked for a Nuptial Night with the Utmost Happiness Faction. What was worse, he asked for it today?
“You’re a d*mn scoundrel! Who gave you the audacity! Do you really want to fight to the end with the three academies?” A mighty Immortal Cultivator yelled at once, his face full of anger! In addition to their humiliation and hurt pride, they were now more worried and anxious about the swarm of Holy Golden Armored Hornets outside. They kept casting their eyes on them. If they had merely been wary of the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes, now the Holy Golden Armored Hornets were fueling their devastation!
First, they were trapped in the spell, and the area where they could plot their escape was very limited. On the other hand, they had absorbed a large volume of Drunken Immortal Perfume. Their Qi, blood, and True Core Strength were sluggish, and their abilities had been badly suppressed. But even so, in the face of millions of Heaven-Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes, they still had the opportunity to fight back, perhaps at the expense of 30 or 40 people. That was enough to kill millions of Heaven-Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes.
But now their chance was gone. More than millions of Heaven-Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes had been avoided, but more than millions of Holy Golden Armored Hornets had been attracted.
The destructive power of those two species was almost the same, but the key was that the body of the Holy Golden Armored Hornet was very strong. The same Magic Art that may kill hundreds of Heaven-Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes in an instant, might not even kill one Holy Golden Armored Hornet! The easiest way to kill the Holy Golden Armored Hornets was to find someone to block a poison needle and then kill it with a powerful Magic Art when it was weak!
But now, there were more than millions of Holy Golden Armored Hornets and more than millions of poisonous needles. And there were only 70 or 80 people. Who could stop them?
“Dude, you’re so vicious, how could you put honey in the Floral Dew!” b.u.t.tface had excitement written all over his face. He even rushed up and shouted at the powerful Immortal Cultivators, “Don’t be afraid, everyone. Your Holiness will open the spell now and let you out!”
After his sentence, b.u.t.tface took out a spell flag.
“No! Stop it!” Those from the three academies were terribly alarmed as they screamed aloud.
Open the spell?
What was he joking about? There were so many Holy Golden Armored Hornets out there, if the spell was opened, they would be in grave danger.
“Ah, don’t open it?” b.u.t.tface looked like he was making a difficult decision. He was vexed. “Couldn’t you let Your Holiness do a good deed?”
“Teacher b.u.t.tface, a good deed isn’t done like this. If you enabled the spell and let them out, you’ll harm them instead. Let the old man do it!” Duan Jiude went forward with a smile and took up the task of doing a good deed. He turned his hand over and pulled out a bottle of Drunken Immortal Perfume.
“Everyone! I, the old man here, used to get drunk when I was upset. All of you should inhale the Drunken Immortal Perfume once more to intoxicate yourself and get rid of all your worries. You’ll be all right after a sleep!”
The affluent Cultivators from the East Continent sensed a bad omen, and their expressions became ghastly.
Intoxicate yourself and got rid of all your worries? They were afraid that it would be an eternal sleep.
Many people had gooseb.u.mps. They were super frightened!
b.u.t.tface, Duan Jiude, and Xu Que were the three a.s.sh*les of the Exploding Heavens Faction—the Combination of Que, De, and Dog. They were creating misfortune for others again!
“We’re done for. I have a bad feeling that these Immortal Cultivators might be killed.” A disciple of the Illusionary Flower and Moon Sect spoke bitterly.
The disciple of the Four Symbols Green Dragon Sect nodded his head and said solemnly, “I have the same feeling. This game might last for at least one year!”
