Chapter 996


"Them? Who are they? Xu Que couldn't help but ask upon hearing the old lady's words .

However, the old lady made no response . She stiffened as a murderous intent flashed in her eyes, seemingly filled with hatred toward the couple whose conversation they had been overhearing .

At the same time, the conversation continued .

"We've been trapped here for 100 years . Have you genuinely forgotten everything this past 100 years?"

"I'm sorry . I put everything behind me the moment I decided to be together with your mother!"

"Good . Very well then . Now that the Refined Moon Palace is unlocked, I will leave immediately . I will complete my marriage into the Song family . From this day on, we will be nothing but enemies should we meet again!"

"Wait . Before you leave, I have something to ask . "

"What is it?"

"All these years, was the person in your heart me or my father? If you marry into the Song family, what should my father do?"

Everyone outside the tunnel felt their heads spinning from this conversation .

Xu Que's jaws dropped as shock filled his face . That was a f*cking information overload . Unimaginable! Could such drama actually happen? It's so absurd!

However, Xu Que was most surprised by how powerful the couple was . From their auras, their cultivation stage would be almost as high as the old lady . At the very least, they would be in the Half Celestial Stage, which was slightly lower than the Human Celestial Stage .

"Hmph! The world's so small for archenemies! All of you fall back and hide . I will resolve this myself!" The old lady snorted and tilted slightly sideways as if she were preparing to launch an ambush attack . Elder Yu waved without hesitation for the Leaving Leaves Sect followers to withdraw .

Jiang Hongyan took Xu Feifei and went to the back, clearly staying out of this matter .

Buttface . . . he had long hidden at the very back .

Xu Que was the only one who, with a roll of his eyes, sneaked up to the old lady, smiling . He assured her, "Now that things have come to his, it may be better to let bygones be bygones!"

"Let bygones be bygones? Are you asking me to let this go? If you were the one who went through all that, would you put all of that behind you?" asked the furious old lady .



Xu Que smiled, "I will never undergo situations like this . However, as the saying goes, life is incomplete if your lover never cheats! However, I never thought that you would be so bold as to cheat with your daughter's lover . To be honest, though, that's a little inappropriate . "

"Cheating? Cheating with my daughter's lover?" The old lady was bewildered and felt something was off . She frowned . "Wang Dachui, what are you getting at? I don't have a daughter!"

"Huh?" Xu Que was stunned . He pointed toward the inner tunnel and asked, "Wasn't the woman inside your daughter? And the man inside your illicit lover?"

"Wang Dachui!" The old lady was so angry that she wanted to kill Xu Que with a strike of her palm .

"What?" Xu Que asked, confused .

The old lady bellowed furiously, "What nonsense are you spouting? I have got nothing to do with that shameless duo! The hatred I have for them was about how they ambushed me in the Refined Moon Palace 100 years ago!"

"Ah! So that's what it is! It's a misunderstanding . It's all a misunderstanding!" Xu Que finally came to this realization and smiled politely yet awkwardly .

Well, it's no surprise that he would misunderstand . The conversation between that couple was enough to shake anyone's sense of morality . Furthermore, the old lady looked so murderous while they were speaking . He would, of course, get the wrong idea!



However, it was a surprise that after all that trouble, the old lady's killing intent was simply due to the couple being one of those who had ambushed her 100 years ago . The saying that archenemies always meet is right, after all!

"So you intend to ambush them here?" Xu Que asked .

Although he could sense that the couple inside the tunnel was powerful, he could guess that the old lady's ambush was more than likely to have no real effect .

"Why? Do you think that there's something wrong?" questioned the old lady .

"Of course, it's wrong! You're doing it the wrong way . Your ambush would be useless, as you would at most land a single hit!" 

The old lady was doubtful . After all, having reached the Celestial stage meant that tactics such as ambushing would be useless in most situations . It would only work when the opponent was unaware and the attacker would reap the benefits of making the first move . In such cases, landing even an extra hit could alter the battle situation significantly . Back then, she lost because she was attacked from the back when she let down her guard and was immediately confronted with multiple enemies .

If not for that successful sneak attack, she could have fought all of her enemies easily at the peak of her prowess . However, that blow had rendered her unable to recover quickly from her injuries, forming a vicious cycle that finally wounded her severely .

Therefore, she chose to take revenge by ambushing them—an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth . However, Xu Que said that it would be useless to land just a single blow .

"The most crucial part about ambushing is that you have to secure the kill with a single hit . When their guard is down, capture that moment, and kill them with one move!" Xu Que explained seriously .



The old lady rolled her eyes . To kill the opponent in a single move when their guard is down? You must be daydreaming! This is a battle between a Half Celestial and a Human Celestial, not some brawl between humans that could end with a knife, okay?

"Eh? Are you listening? Is that disdain that I see on your face? I'm an expert in the realm of ambushers back in the day! Your level of ambushing is child's play!" Xu Que shook his head, seemingly agonized by the old lady's vain attempt .

The old lady sighed exasperatedly, "Wang Dachui, you'd better hide behind me . The battle between a Half Celestial and a Human Celestial is something beyond your imagination!"

"What are you talking about? I'm talking about ambushing, not about cultivation stages . Ambushing is an art that transcends cultivation stages, don't you understand?" Xu Que stared at her intently .

The old lady was annoyed to the point that she almost lost her cool . She sneered, "Ambushing is an art that transcends cultivation stages? Very well, why don't you show me an effective ambush?"

"Puu, do I look that silly? Why would I work for free? However, considering the uniqueness of the situation, I guess it's fine to show you how I ambush . However, this kind of one-to-one training must come with a price . I'm gonna charge!" Xu Que beamed, finally revealing his intent .

For this trip, Xu Que had intended to scam and extort anything he could get his hands on, on top of the black-and-white bone ashes . Xu Que was ready to get everything he could, be it the Ten-Millennium-Flower-Dew or the treasures of the old lady . After all, the old lady was an existence at the Human Celestial Stage . Who knows? Maybe he could easily scam some Celestial Artifacts from her .

"Heh, if you could ambush them successfully, and kill them in a single move as you've bragged, it might be worth it for me to pay to learn from you . " The old woman chuckled, with a mocking smile on her face .

It's not that she didn't believe in Xu Que . It was that Xu Que's words were so ridiculous that only a fool would believe in them . A young man at the peak of the Form Synthesis Stage trying to ambush two powerhouses at the Half Celestial Stage, and even bragging about killing them with a single move . How was that possible? Even a Human Celestial like her would not dare to make such promises, in a situation where she had fully recovered from her injuries . Therefore, Xu Que's words sounded like a joke to the old lady .

However, Xu Que's eyes lit up like 1,000 suns as he chirped, "That's great! That's why I like to work with straightforward folks like you . That couple's coming out soon so we should agree on the school fees quickly . Do you intend to repay with your body or assets? By installments or through a once-off payment?"
