“Sneak attack?”
“Did that guy finish off the humanoid lightning with a sneak attack?”
Suddenly, all the onlookers began to realize what had just happened.
Just a moment ago, it was true that no one could see clearly what had happened because Xu Que and the humanoid lightning moved their bodies at the same time as they charged at each other.
Their speed had turned them into two streams of light, which finally collided with each other. And, after only one collision, the fight was over.
The ending was easy to see. The humanoid lightning had been blown up, and Xu Que was still whole.
“No way, just now, both of them charged, confronting each other. Where did the sneak attack come from?” In Tian Sha City, someone asked with a puzzled face.
This was also the question that was troubling almost everyone in the audience, including Nishang Fairy and the woman in black.
They couldn’t figure it out, nor could they see through it. How did Xu Que do what he’d just done?
“Ha, ha, ha, I know what happened here.” b.u.t.tface laughed and looked very happy and proud. “It was all due to me, your Holiness.”
“Bullsh*t, I also take credit for it.” Duan Jiude gave b.u.t.tface a dirty look.
All the people present looked at b.u.t.tface and Duan Jiude, dying to know what the h*ll they were talking about.
However, just at this point, b.u.t.tface and Duan Jiude had stopped talking.
This made everyone crazy. They all wanted to kill them.
“Sh*t, they stopped in the middle of their conversation. Are they trying to drive us crazy on purpose?”
“My dear two fellow cultivators, I wonder if you could give me some hint of what just happened here?” One of the cultivators couldn’t stand his curiosity and asked.
b.u.t.tface immediately cheered up and said excitedly, “Of course, let me tell you, because ordinary people really couldn’t see what happened just now. In fact, that man launched a sneak attack and killed the humanoid lightning with one shot.”
“….. ” Everyone was dumbfounded.
‘Son of a b*tch, we just want to know how did he launch the sneak attack, the part you just skipped?’
“Well, at that time, the fighting was fierce like a rising wind and scudding clouds and my blood boiled with excitement. The sneak attack of that man was cla.s.sic and perfect.” Duan Jiude added.
“F*ck!” Everyone swore to themselves.
“If I don’t have this wrong, Faction Leader must have taken advantage of the restrictive spell on the ground.” Mo Junchen suddenly opened his mouth.
Everyone turned to him.
He stroked his chin and shook his head. “In fact, I didn’t know what happened just now either, but, according to the previous battle, plus Faction Leader Xu Que’s and b.u.t.tface’s… well, Vice Faction Leader’s habits in the past, as well as Sect Elder Duan Jiude’s, Faction Leader Xu Que must have used the illusion to deceive the humanoid lightning and then sneaked to the ground with the power of the restrictive spell. At the moment when the humanoid lightning collided with the illusion, he came out of the ground and smashed the humanoid lightning with a stick.”
As soon as he finished speaking, all the people suddenly realized what had happened and slapped their heads.
As expected, now they all remembered something. Why had everyone forgotten the earlier scene in which the Wicked Trio had teased the Celestial Kings?
Even the Celestial Kings had been deceived. How could this humanoid lightning of a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven not have been cheated?
“Hey, I never realized you were such a smart *ss!” b.u.t.tface shouted with surprise.
Mo Junchen squeezed out a dry smile, looking abashed.
He wasn’t that smart at all, but he’d gained a lot of experiences by watching these guys.
“The last Heaven Test is about to start.” At this time, Zixia Fairy whispered to them, staring at the restrictive spell.
She was actually relieved because even the humanoid lightning of the Celestial Emperor had been easily broken by Xu Que.
There shouldn’t be any danger in the last Heaven Test. After all, the demonic body of Xu Que was enough to crush anything.
However, she was very curious: who would be the prototype of the humanoid lightning that could be placed after the Celestial Emperor and play the final part?
Since it was something recognized by Heaven, its qualifications and talents must be extraordinary.
“Just now it was a Celestial Emperor. Do you think the last one will be a Taoist Prime or Taoist Emperor?” b.u.t.tface was making a stab at guessing.
“Well, with the extent of that boy’s evil, even if Heaven sends a deity down, I wouldn’t be surprised at all.” Duan Jiude sneered.
“All of them are useless. No matter who is sent, it is essentially a force of Ancient Catastrophe and cannot break through the boy’s defenses.” b.u.t.tface shook his head. If those people who were in the shape of lightning came in person, it would be hard to say if Xu Que could beat them or not.
But these were just empty sh.e.l.ls without spiritual knowledge, which could only attack and retreat. This kind of humanoid lightning without strategy was not threatening as long as it couldn’t break through Xu Que’s defenses.
BOOM!
At the moment, the clouds were roiled by lightning and thunder. This last disaster’s presence was far stronger than the ones before.
After all, according to the order, this Heaven Test was the strongest one of the five, also the most powerful so that Xu Que could pa.s.s from Taiyi Golden Celestial to Disbanded Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven.
Everyone was watching, waiting for the humanoid lightning to come.
Xu Que was no exception. He was also very curious about what kind of existence his opponent would be this time.
He had used the restrictive spell that had been set up here and easily finished the powerful humanoid lightning. It could be said that it was a fluke, but it was also inevitable.
“How could humanoid lightning be compared to a living person?”
The reason why people were strong was because of their wisdom. People were dangerous because of their hearts.
These were two of the most important things that humanoid lightning didn’t have.
So was this Heaven’s underestimation of the importance of people’s hearts and wisdom?
Xu Que smiled slightly at this thought, as, standing in the same place, holding the Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod in his hand, his clothes fluttering, he seemed like a spirit indomitable and unconquerable.
But the next moment, when the figure under the golden beam gradually took shape and slowly stepped out, Xu Que was in shock!
The naughty curve of his mouth slowly froze and stopped rising.
His eyes were full of astonishment, and then he was full of excitement.
“Xiao…Xiao Rou!”
Xu Que yelled in a trembling voice. He said the name that he hadn’t mentioned for many years.
The past, Five Elements Mountain, Fire Country, Celestial Sect, Pan Shan Village, all of these things were still fresh in his mind!
From the first time he had met Xiao Rou to when Xiao Rou had fallen into his arms and faded, all the pictures were still clear.
That year, he had been cynical and pure in nature.
Now, he was still cynical, but his nature was not so pure.
From Xu Que to demon, the great factor in the transformation was the incident in Pan Shan Village and the death of Xiao Rou.
Therefore, Xiao Rou had always occupied an important position in Xu Que’s heart, which was so important that he seldom mentioned it to others. Like a precious little secret, it was carefully hidden in his heart, and he was not willing for it to be seen by anyone.
Later, he’d revived Xiao Rou. But then they’d separated again before he saw Xiao Rou after her rebirth.
This was only the fault of destiny that made fools of people. (Or the author!)
However, at that moment, Xu Que saw Xiao Rou.
Heaven had incarnated her as a humanoid lightning and sent her in front of Xu Que.
Her eyes were still as pure as before, fresh and beautiful.
Her cheeks were still as lovely and sweet as they had always been.
However, she was different. She had a little more coldness, a little more of a murderous aura, which was a characteristic of all Old Saints.
Therefore, this couldn’t be Xiao Rou.
At least, this wasn’t the Xiao Rou that Xu Que knew in the old days.
“How…dare you!” Xu Que clenched his teeth, and the whisper that came from his throat was like a beast growling.
He suddenly lifted his head and glared at the sky, his fists clenched, his veins bulging, and his whole body trembling, a manifestation of rage to the extreme!
A majestic murderous aura swept across the sky. Horrible anger rose from Xu Que!
“Who gave you the b.a.l.l.s? How dare you turn her into a Heaven Test for me? What are you? How dare you?” Xu Que suddenly roared loudly, with a deafening voice, as if he was a crazy devil out of control, completely unsealed.
