: What Does This Mean?

BOOM!
The Firestorm Wheels flew from Xu Que’s hands into the sky. They moved rapidly toward the Sage Sect elders, two columns of dark smoke emitted from behind them as they sped forward as fast as lightning.
The two imposing columns of smoke immediately enveloped the entire area.
In the forefront of his group, Elder Lee, almost overcome by the smoke, stopped in his tracks, his face contorted in fear. He was barely able to speak, “What…what is this Celestial Prime power? How can it be?”
“Two…two Celestial Primes?” The Sage Sect elders, silenced by shock, all paled at Elder Lee’s words.
“These are souls, the souls of two Celestial Primes. They must be, they must be!” One of the elders started shouting, believing that he’d figured out what was going on.
Xu Que’s abilities had to be Earth Celestial Middle Grade. The Heaven Palace Academy’s Deacon had fallen at Xu Que’s hands, all due to the souls of the two Celestial Primes.
“Retreat! Quickly! Retreat!” Elder Lee, immediately realizing the situation, shouted the order as he turned around and scrambled to escape.
In the face of two Celestial Prime souls, all he could do was escape, without even thinking about anything else!
However, the speed of the two Celestial Prime souls was incredibly fast. The difference between the peak of Celestial Prime and Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven wasn’t far from the difference between Xu Que and the Celestials of the Great All-Embracing Heaven.
WHOOs.h.!.+
With an enormous sound that echoed and cracked throughout the skies, Xuanyuan Qishang’s soul sped right up to Elder Lee.
“You dare to harm my child? You will die!” Xuanyuan Qishang’s soul roared throughout the heavens, reaching and terrifying everyone to their cores.
Immediately, his palm reached out, pressing straight ahead.
BOOM!
Straightaway, an immense power rolled forward like a tsunami, slamming down from the skies in waves.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Right away, all the elders and deacons who were standing near to Elder Lee disappeared, leaving only a blood mist in their places.
Killing people like it was nothing, consulting no morals, this was how the strong showed off their abilities!
Elder Lee was terrified out of his wits. His original plan to have the Sect Leader open the door to awaken the Sage Sect’s ancestors and kill Xu Que was completely irrelevant now. With two Celestial Prime souls at his heels, even if the Sect Leader succeeded in opening the door, he wouldn’t live long enough to witness the scene.
“Wait, Elder Xu, this has all been a huge misunderstanding. We don’t have to do this!” Elder Lee screamed desperately, begging for Xu Que’s mercy.
“I think we absolutely do have to do this!” Xu Que stood not far off, smiling, his arms crossed, coldly watching everything unfold before him.
No matter how cold-blooded the scene had become with Xuanyuan Qishang and Guan Chuchu hunting down the Sage Sect, Xu Que didn’t wish to spare anyone and definitely wouldn’t call for the two souls to stop!
He wasn’t sure when it had started, but he no longer held any feelings of mercy.
Perhaps it was simply a matter of survival, or maybe it was that the reality of his life had changed him. In the end, a lot of people become the kind of people who they had once despised.
However, Xu Que was not conflicted by these thoughts. He believed that progress required change. He held true to himself. He believed that he was still himself, but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t change at all!
BOOM!
Not far off, the Sage Sect’s elders and deacons each faced their deaths without a chance in h*ll of fighting back.
Elder Lee indignantly cried out, “NO!” even as Guan Chuchu’s attack hit him directly, scattering his soul. Guan Chuchu used his Spiritual Qi as a tool in creating an immeasurable amount of sharp blades and using the Celestial Art made infamous by the Utmost Happiness Faction when they conquered the Heaven Continent, vanquis.h.i.+ng over ten men at one go!
Very quickly, the original group of 50 to 60 men was gone, leaving only ten or so leftovers madly attempting to escape.
These were the higher echelons of the Sage Sect, the Sect’s main source of power. With the death of so many Sect members, it would be very difficult for the Sect to recover.
Xu Que cast his eyes over the rest of the Sage Sect members down below.
These were the Sage Sect disciples, who, upon hearing what was happening, had rushed to the scene. Thousands upon thousands of faces paled and their bodies shook with horror.
“Hey, boy, time’s up! Put them both back now!” b.u.t.tface’s voice carried over to Xu Que.
Xu Que looked up at the two souls of Xuanyuan Qishang and Guan Chuchu, and he realized that they did indeed look spent.
This was where the disadvantage lay in dealing with the souls. If he didn’t use the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines now, there was no way to keep the two souls fighting. He must allow them to recover with the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines before letting them out again to battle.
“All right, let’s stop now!”
Xu Que quietly gave his orders. The Soul Strength opened momentarily, calling the two souls to return to the Firestorm Wheels.
It was great that the two souls had already vanquished so many, leaving everyone else too terrified to function. No one remaining had any wish to attack Xu Que, they all just wanted to flee.
Without the taste of adrenaline, the two souls gradually quieted down and answered Xu Que’s call to return to the Firestorm Wheels.
“That’s about done it. Let’s go to the Four Great Continents. We’ll deal with the rest of them when we return!”
Xu Que spoke to b.u.t.tface and Duan Jiude, as he quickly refined the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines and then covered the Firestorm Wheels with it and returned it into the System.
According to their plans, they were going to go to the Four Great Continents today. Of course, it wouldn’t be simple to set up a Void Interface Point. And the Heaven Continent’s Void was far stronger than Xu Que had realized. Hence, all this time that they had been hanging around the Heaven Palace Academy, he’d had Little Gold Clone go to prepare the Void Interface Point.
Now that the Void Interface Point was ready, he was prepared to begin his journey, and definitely didn’t want to put it off another minute.
And so, leaving behind a sea of frightened Sage Sect disciples, Xu Que and his group rose up into the air, pa.s.sed the mountain that delineated the rear edge of the Sage Sect’s territory, and disappeared into the distance.
Halfway to their destination, b.u.t.tface held up one leg in a confident flying stance.
Xu Que was impressed by such a powerful move. As he opened his mouth to compliment b.u.t.tface, he heard a PFFFT and a dark yellow ribbon came out of b.u.t.tface’s rear end and then dropped down below.
“D*mn, my stomach is not feeling well!” b.u.t.tface shouted. He continued flying forward, his confidence unchanged as he remained unaware of the facial expressions of the people around him.
Xu Que, along with the rest of the group, shouted, “Ugh, b.u.t.tface!”
…..
At the same time, by the Sage Sect’s Sacred Grounds near the mountain at the rear of their territory, someone was standing.
Xiao Tienhen stood in front of an enormous bronze door. His face was somber with a trace of adoration and awe.
In his hands were three sticks of incense. He kowtowed with each step he took as he walked toward the bronze door. Once he reached the door, he placed the three sticks of incense into the ground.
He then immediately took out a black, circular, metal token with the word SAGE engraved on top. This was the Sect Leader’s token, pa.s.sed down through the ages to each Sage Sect Leader. It was also the only secret key to open this door.
“Now that the rules of Heaven and Earth have changed, with the appearance of a Celestial King, disciple Xiao Tienhen, following the guidance of the ancestors, seeks to open this Sage door to awaken our ancestors!”
As the sound of his words ended, Xiao Tienhen sent out several Taoist seals that came together as a blaze which picked up the circular token and sent it hurtling toward the bronze door.
DONG!
Accompanied by a crisp ring, the bronze door received the token and its surface immediately began to distort like ripples on water.
Xiao Tienhen’s face lightened as he cried out, “May the Heavens watch over my Sage Sect! Your disciple Xiao Tienhen! Ancestors, please return to your places!”
SLAP!
The next moment, a clump of black-yellowish sticky substance fell from the sky directly onto Xiao Tienhen’s forehead and flowed down his cheek.
A nasty smell invaded Xiao Tienhen’s nose.
Xiao Tienhen was stunned.
What do the ancestors mean by this?
