Chapter 810: 810
With that, the three young men from the Divine Son Division left in a rage . Xu Que waited for their aura to disappear entirely from the Soul Strength detection before he sat next to Jiang Hongyan again, his hands dying to touch her .
Jiang Hongyan shot him an exasperated look and whispered, "Frankly speaking, you could have taken up their offer to join the Divine Son Division . "
"Huh? Is there anything special about this Divine Son Division?" Xu Que asked doubtfully .
After all, while those three men did seem quite powerful, they were not strong enough to make Xu Que think highly of them . Once he unleashed the King of Tough-Acting Fist, those three would surely perish! Why join this so-called Divine Son Division if that was the best they could offer? It could not even compare to his Exploding Heavens Faction!
"The key to the Divine Son Division lies in their commander-in-chief, Qin Wei! Also at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage, he has an extraordinary position in the Xuanzhen Continent; even the Emperor has got to show him some courtesy and doesn't want to fight him . If you take refuge in the Divine Son Division, even the Emperor would need to think twice before touching you!" Jiang Hongyan said .
Xu Que could not believe his ears . "What? Is this commander guy stronger than the Emperor?"
"No . Strengthwise, the Emperor would surely be in the top rankings within the Xuanzhen Continent, and Qin Wei could never compare . However, cultivators who had reached their stage are often reluctant to fight . As even if there is a gap in strength, it's unlikely that they could kill each other that easily . "
As Jiang Hongyan said this, she looked up slightly at the night sky beyond the windowsill and whispered, "When you reach that level, you will inevitably make numerous enemies . Once a war breaks out, you can't escape unscathed even if you killed the other party . Once that happens, the rest of your enemies would surely launch a sneak attack when you're weak . Therefore, instead of saying that Your Majesty fears Qin Wei, it is more appropriate to say that he is worried about getting injured!"
"I see . It's okay . Then there's nothing much to worry about . This division seems wicked; we just saw it too . They are all so arrogant that I'm almost annoyed!" Xu Que complained, his expression irritated .
Jiang Hongyan did not know whether to laugh or cry at his words . Do they annoy you?
Who else in the world can annoy you? Weren't you the one who pissed them off till they ran away in the first place?
"Ah, let's not talk about it . The more we talk about it, the more I get upset!" Xu Que stopped the topic with a wave .
Xu Que felt that it was such a pity that he could not kill those three people . If the King of Tough-Acting Fist had been available, he could have used it to establish respect and intimidate his detractors!
"Well, not joining the division was a good thing! Qin Wei isn't exactly the best of men; as far as I know, the purpose of him cultivating the Divine Son Division wasn't that moral either!" Jiang Hongyan nodded and said gently .
"Why is it immoral?" Xu Que was uninterested in the Divine Son Division but had wanted to distract Jiang Hongyan's attention . Only when she's absorbed in chatting will his wicked claws find a chance to slip past her defenses . So, he pretended to be a curious baby and asked .
Jiang Hongyan did not see Xu Que's "misguided thoughts" and responded earnestly, "His plan to nurture the Divine Sons was just for him to control them . He would make them enter Road of Heavenly Ascension, and bring him the Celestial Bone Fruit!"
"Hmm? What is the Celestial Bone Fruit?" Her words piqued his interest for real, and now he was genuinely curious .
Jiang Hongyan looked at him and said, "A kind of fruit growing from the remains of an Immortal cultivator . It's a rare medicine that could help to break through the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage!"
"Can medicine grow out of Immortal cultivators?" Xu Que was astonished .
Jiang Hongyan chuckled, "It's just hearsay, but according to ancient records, some people did see the remains of an Immortal cultivator on the Road of Heavenly Ascension a long time ago . They plucked a fruit from the bones, absorbed it, and achieved Celestial Stage . However, no one else had ever seen the remains of the Immortal again . Even if they did, they would not dare disclose it to the outside world . That was also precisely why the Emperor had nourished the God-realization Tree with a wisp of my past soul .
"So that's what it is!" Xu Que nodded, and his eyes narrowed slightly . Was it really that difficult to achieve the Celestial Stage?
"It's getting late . If you don't rest now, you may not be able to catch tomorrow's war!" At this time, Jiang Hongyan looked at Xu Que and smiled mildly . Ever since last time, she realized that Xu Que could not use his unique sure-kill fist technique as and when he wished . It needed time to recover when he had used it to the limit .
Xu Que looked out of the window and stared at the night sky . With a nod, he retrieved his hand . As Jiang Hongyan had said, if he could not restore his Taoist Connotation in time, he would miss out on the battle tomorrow . He sat on the futon and soon entered the state of Tao Comprehension, re-examining and re-perceiving his Taoist Connotation .
Jiang Hongyan sat beside him and looked at him quietly for a long time . After that, her beautiful lips rose slightly, and warmth swept across her beautiful eyes . Before she realized it, she had gotten used to and taken quite a liking to spending this kind of time alone with Xu Que .
They would stay together, fight together, chat with each other, and practice together, a simple life, a simple flow . It was wonderful . Finally, she closed her eyes and entered a state of meditation .
. . .
The next day, the trumpet sounded on the battlefield again!
Both the human cultivators and the Heaven Orc Tribe had rebuilt their armies and landed on the battlefield once again . Battle had commenced!
