Ultimate Scheming System

The branch of the Exploding Heavens Faction in the Southern Continent had been started casually, and it had always been casually maintained.

After Xu Que had gathered some followers into this branch, he had gone to the Celestial Burial Valley, where he had been imprisoned by Xuanyuan Wanrong. After he had managed to escape with great difficulty, he had moved on. He wasn’t a qualified faction leader.

However, seeing him now raised the spirits of the numerous members of the Exploding Heavens Faction.

A person’s fame was similar to a tree’s shadow, it spread far and wide. The name Xu Que represented a very important being throughout the Four Great Continents.

He had become the backbone of the Exploding Heavens Faction, which he had, after all, invented. The Exploding Heavens Faction existed solely around him, no matter whether he was present or not. The faction’s numerous members took him as a model due to his great power. They all wanted to follow him wherever he went and admired his way of doing things, as well as his fierce mentality.

Now, suddenly, he had shown up in the Four Great Continents again, and the numerous members of the Exploding Heavens Faction were extremely moved by this. They were delighted and excited because the model they’d admired for so many years had appeared in front of them.

Xu Que wasn’t surprised by this because he’d already gotten used to this kind

of adoration.

As for the Eight-headed Serpent’s disrespect? Xu Que wasn’t bothered by it at all.

Any individual who had achieved many great things wouldn’t bother about trifles or make a fuss over minor matters.

So Xu Que just beat the Eight-headed Serpent viciously in front of the crowd, tied its eight heads into a tight knot, and made it into a ball that he then kicked into the air.

“Should a person with great achievements not bother about trifles?”

“I’m sorry, I have never considered achieving anything great.”

BANG!

When the Eight-headed Serpent fell from the air and landed, the whole ground quaked.

Everyone held their breaths and observed this calmly. No one found the Eight-headed Serpent pitiful because he’d brought this upon himself with his sharp tongue.

Whoever in the Four Great Continents didn’t know Xu Que’s fame? Who dared to say any malicious words about him? It was only people tired of living who would do so!

TSK! TSK! TSK! “This fool made trouble just as we met. It was really too immature.” Buttface wore an ice-cold smile across his face and mocked the young, irresponsible Eight-headed Serpent. In the distant past, Xu Que had taught him a lesson in the same way, and he felt that he had already learned everything he should about this.

“I think that the serpent is still quite lucky. It has at least just suffered a beating and wasn’t killed,” Duan Jiude said. He took pleasure in the serpent’s misfortune.

As for Mo Junchen, he was quite indifferent to the whole business. He wasn’t interested in this trifling matter, and he looked attentively at the Celestial Burial Valley’s entrance. His intuition informed that this region was anything but simple.

“Faction Leader Xu, I’m quite confused about this. What’s the origin of this place?” Mo Junchen pointed his finger at the Celestial Burial Valley as he questioned Xu Que.

At this moment, Xu Que had just taken care of the Eight-headed Serpent, and he wore a satisfied look. He was in a good mood, and he replied with a smile to Mo Junchen’s question, “Guardian Mo, this place is called the Celestial Burial Valley, and, according to legend, its origin is related to story from ancient times. It is said that a god was buried here, but that god is likely just Xuanyuan Wanrong.”

“Xuanyuan Wanrong? It’s the graveyard of a Celestial Prime expert?” Mo Junchen was startled, and he nodded his head in understanding. If a being at the Celestial Prime stage had died here, it wasn’t strange for this terrain to appear here.

The great earth could nurture many talented people, but people at the same stage as Xuanyuan Wanrong were already almighty beings that could alter the world.

“What Xuanyuan Wanrong? You are just a group of ignorant humans. This land is called the Celestial Burial Valley because an ancestor of my tribe is asleep here. The name Celestial Burial Valley was coined by my Sea Tribe,” the little fish in Buttface’s hands shouted suddenly in a sharp voice. Its face was filled with anger, and it took the words of Xu Que and Mo Junchen as an insult to its Sea Tribe.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Xu Que and his companions turned grave.

“Did the name Celestial Burial Valley originate from the Sea Tribe, and was an ancestral expert of the Sea Tribe buried inside?”

SWOOSH!

In an instant, Xu Que had a flash of insight. He felt as if everything finally made sense.

Xuanyuan Wanrong’s crisis wasn’t due to the Sea Tribe Lord mentioned by the little fish. It was due to the ancestral expert buried within the Celestial Burial Valley.

Since the beginning, the Celestial Burial Valley itself had been very dangerous.

“Buttface, start working,” Xu Que looked at Buttface and yelled at him.

“Understood!” Buttface knew Xu Que’s intentions implicitly. He took out a pair of scissors before Xu Que had given him any instructions. He clamped the little fish with the scissors and glared at it as he shouted, “Darn it! Spy, you really know everything. If you don’t quickly inform us clearly of the origin of the Celestial Burial Valley, I will cut you up with these scissors.”

“The Celestial Burial Valley’s origin isn’t any secret, and I will tell it to you. Why do you have to cut me up? Are you a nutjob?” The little fish also had a fiery temper, and it was infuriated by Buttface’s actions. This was why it started cursing him.

“F*ck!” Buttface was also infuriated, and he cut off a little piece of the little fish’s tail with the scissors.

CRACK!

AH!

As the little fish’s miserable scream echoed out, its tail fell off.

“Little fish, you are really talkative and you dare to insult me. You’ve probably never suffered death, have you?” Buttface glared at it and scolded it before he moved the scissors to the little fish’s head.

Fright and panic instantly appeared on the little fish’s face, and it entreated him nervously, “Don’t do it! Brother dog, I was wrong, I was really wrong. I have made a grave mistake.”

“Who the f*ck is a dog? I’m a wolf.”

“Brother wolf!” The little fish turned well-behaved and obedient.

Its cultivation stage had already reached the Void Training stage, and losing a part of its body to the scissors wasn’t anything serious for it. But it still felt intense pain, and it would have to spend lots of days to recover the part that had been cut off and would require the help of potions. However, if its head was cut off, then it would probably really die here.

Soon after, the crowd learned the Celestial Burial Valley’s origins thanks to the little fish’s explanation.

In the beginning, the Celestial Burial Valley had been a part of the seabed, and an almighty ancestral expert of the Sea Tribe had been buried there. The continent had gone through great changes, and this region that had been a part of the seabed was extruded and became a valley on dry land. This was why the Sea Tribe originally called it the Celestial Burial Valley, and this name had spread to humans.

This meant that the Celestial Burial Valley hadn’t become famous because of Xuanyuan Wanrong, but because of an almighty ancestor of the Sea Tribe who had a much longer history than Xuanyuan Wanrong did.

If the Sea Tribe’s ancestor hadn’t died and woke up one day, then Xuanyuan Wanrong would face grave danger.

“What is the species of the Sea Tribe’s ancestor you are talking about? Is it a shark or an elephant trunk clam?” Xu Que looked at the little fish and questioned it.

The little fish wore a sullen look as he answered, “I don’t know this. The ancestor had a lofty position in our tribe, and we took him for our Protector God even though we never had any image of him.”

“God?” Xu Que frowned. This was beyond his expectations.

If the person was a Celestial King, he wouldn’t fear him because he had the two souls at the Celestial Prime stage as his trump cards.

If he was a Celestial Prime, then it would be slightly troublesome. However, if he was a Celestial Emperor, it would be very troublesome.

Now it seemed that it was a god, and this was why this matter was probably not just troublesome. It was disastrous.

If a god that hadn’t died awakened in this era, who in the world would manage to keep it at bay?
