Suddenly, the expression of all the people in the stone quarry became strange.

　　Someone was doubtful and thought Xu Que might have had an unfathomably impressive background; otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to treat the Holy Virgin of the Utopia Faction so rudely.

　　Someone else was gloating and anticipated seeing how this legendary cruel Holy Virgin would punish such an ignorant and arrogant figure.

　　However, the result surprised everyone.

　　Liu Jingning wasn’t angry but while shaking her head, said to Xu Que calmly, “Don’t do that, calm down!”

　　She was a very clever woman, so she could understand Xu Que’s words.

　　Xu Que was planning to deal with the matters on his own. Therefore, he was trying to prevent the Utopia Faction from getting involved in this issue by siding against Liu Jingning.

　　“I’m very calm!” Xu Que said with a smile, then looked down abruptly, his eyes full of disobedience and arrogance.

　　He was stubborn by nature, and he was by no means a man restricted by rules.

　　Besides, his bad temper had been shaped in the Five Elements Mountain. How could it be changed in the East Continent?

　　The so-called rules were established by powerhouses. Whether the rules were obeyed or not was dependent on an individual’s strength!

　　Looking down at the confused crowd, Xu Que sneered, “Now listen! This woman, including her Utopia Faction, have nothing to do with me. Today, let me settle this issue with you by myself!”

　　Insolent! He’s too insolent!

　　Everyone in the stone quarry was shocked.

　　The same one who dared to disrespect the Holy Virgin of the Utopia Faction and behave insolently must have had an unfathomable background!

　　However, it seemed like no organizations in the World of Cultivators would dare to disrespect the Utopia Faction and the Jiang family like this!

　　Could it be that he had come from an ancient secluded sect?

　　However, several elders of the Jiang Family were sneering!

　　Even if this young man was an apprentice of a secluded ancient sect, the Jiang family would still not be terrified by his background.

　　“Since you want to settle this issue alone, please state your name. We’ll see whether you’re qualified to settle this issue!” Jiang Tianhai said with a smile as he stared at Xu Que.

　　The Jiang family was emboldened to demand such things!

　　Seeing the situation escalate beyond her control, Liu Jingning could do nothing but act as an onlooker.

　　At the same time, with coldness shining in his eyes, Xu Que sneered, “I’m Xu Que of the Exploding Heavens Faction. Xu is the Xu from Xu Que, and I don’t know how to write Que! Is that clear?”

　　Everyone was instantly stunned.

　　Xu Que of the Exploding Heavens Faction? And you don’t know how to write Que?

　　Damn! Are you illiterate?

　　Liu Jingning was also shocked, then she shook her head wryly. Xu Que had even cracked a joke at this moment, which meant he was calm!

　　However, this was too much!

　　A calm person who chose to do such an impulsive thing was absolutely a bad*ss.

　　“The Exploding Heavens Faction? I’ve never heard of it!” The elders of the Jiang family shook their heads disdainfully.

　　As soon as people hear this vulgar and arrogant name, they’ll know it’s not a powerful organization!

　　“I don’t care if you’ve ever heard of it, but the point is, you must apologize! As a liberal, I’ll give you two options: you can apologize to me, then I’ll return the thing to you, or you don’t apologize, and I’ll kill all of you immediately!” After finishing his words, Xu Que started to smile coldly, as if he was eager to give it a try!

　　If we don’t apologize, you’ll kill all of us immediately, right?

　　Hearing that, all people in the stone quarry were in chaos!

　　This guy is way too arrogant!

　　Someone who wanted to flatter the Jiang family seized the opportunity immediately by sneering at Xu Que, “Young man, are you insane?”

　　“You’re just in Level 4 of the Infant Transformation Stage, still not top-level, so how could you talk so big here? This is ridiculous!” the elder of the Jiang family smiled like he had seen a fool!

　　“You’re the first person who has dared to say these kind of words to the Jiang family in many years. It’s a pity that you’ll die soon.”

　　“Holy Virgin Liu, you’d better stay away from this man. He’s too stupid to be your junior!” said Jiang Tianhai, who was implying that Liu Jingning should stay away from this issue.

　　“Alas!” Liu Jingning shook her head and sighed, then she flew backward and said quietly, “I will not interfere in this matter!”

　　She thought it was necessary for Xu Que to suffer a bit. As long as she didn’t completely step back from the issue, she would have no problems. At worst, she could help Xu Que escape when he was about to die.

　　She also knew Xu Que had a kind of escape spell that could help him escape instantly. Therefore, he wasn’t in great danger.

　　However, everyone was laughing at Xu Que, but none of them knew Xu Que had opened the System and entered the Store Interface.

　　At this moment, his People Killing Book and People Killing Swords were already hungry and impatient!

　　He had killed five men of the Gong Family in the Water Nation before, and the People Killing Book and Sword had reached the tenth layer!

　　That day, he had killed four people in the Bright Moon Hotel, which successfully enhanced the Book and Sword to the 18th layer!

　　Now, he had to kill another six people to enhance the Book and Sword to the 30th layer, which was the highest!

　　Of course, the premise was that the cultivation levels of these people had to be higher than his, so he could enhance the Book and Sword by two layers by killing each of them.

　　The elders of the Jiang family were at Level 6 or Level 7 of the Infant Transformation Stage, which was quite satisfactory for Xu Que’s purposes, but it was quite difficult to kill six powerhouses in the Infant Transformation Stage simultaneously with the People Killing Book and People Killing Sword at the 18th layer.

　　Therefore, he had to hurry in obtaining the Secret of All, so he could learn the Genuine · Secret of ‘All’ of the Nine Secrets to multiply his strength tenfold. Along with the People Killing Book and the People Killing Sword, he would defeat those people easily.

　　“System, quick, let me purchase the Nine Secrets!” Xu Que started to purchase the Nine Secrets in a rush!

　　Ding! “Congratulations to the host in purchasing the Secret of ‘Troop’ successfully by spending 200 Acting Tough Points!”

　　Ding! “Congratulations to the host in purchasing the Secret of ‘Troop’ successfully by spending 200 Acting Tough Points!”

　　Ding! “Congratulations to the host in purchasing the Secret of ‘Troop’ successfully by spending 200 Acting Tough Points!”

　　…

　　After over ten purchases, Xu Que had spent more than 2,000 Acting Tough Points, but what he had obtained was only the Secret of Troop.

　　His luck was so lousy!

　　He had even suspected that the purchases were not performed randomly, and the System increased the difficulty to obtain the Secret of All so that he had to spend more Acting Tough Points!

　　“Damn! What a businessman you are! You’re doing this deliberately, right?”

　　After spending 5,000 Acting Tough Points, Xu Que couldn’t take it anymore, so he questioned the System.

　　The System didn’t give him any response.

　　“This is outrageous! This is my first day in the East Continent, how could my luck be so lousy?” Xu Que became inexplicably impatient.

　　At the same time, the people in the stone quarry were still laughing at Xu Que.

　　More and more people were getting involved.

　　Liu Jingning had stated her stance that she wouldn’t interfere in this matter. Many people thought that Xu Que was just a nobody. Moreover, they wanted to flatter the Jiang family, so they would definitely grab the opportunity!

　　“Young man, although you’re a ruler, you should know that arrogant rulers like you always end up miserable!

　　“Now, you still have time to get down and bow in apology, and maybe the Jiang family could forgive your rudeness!

　　“Right! Stop acting foolishly, quickly come down and bow to admit your mistake!”

　　…

　　“Alas!”

　　At this moment, Liu Jingning sighed again.

　　She didn’t know that Xu Que was still fighting with the System. Superficially, Xu Que was just in a daze in the sky, leaving the crowd at the bottom to laugh at him.

　　She couldn’t take it anymore, so she delivered a message by moving her lips slightly. “Little brat, why did you ignore my advice to step back just now? Now what can you do? Fine, you go first and I’ll cover you!”

　　Xu Que didn’t reply, just continued to purchase the Nine Secrets!

　　What is the key to success? Yes, persistence!

　　You don’t want me to obtain it, right? I will continue to try, this is nothing for me!

　　Ding! “Congratulations to the host in purchasing the Secret of ‘Troop’ successfully by spending 200 Acting Tough Points!”

　　Ding! “Congratulations to the host in purchasing the Secret of ‘Troop’ successfully by spending 200 Acting Tough Points!”

　　Ding! “Congratulations to the host in purchasing the Secret of ‘All’ successfully by spending 200 Acting Tough Points!”

　　At last, along with the System’s last warning sound, Xu Que was excited and his eyes were shiny again. A cold smile appeared on his lips!

　　It’s time for a fight!
