1511 Traversing Relationship Tribulations

BANG!

With a loud crashing sound, Xu Que unsealed the cave dwelling’s restrictive barrier and pushed open the Divine Aperture’s Shell. A breeze suddenly blew in.

HOWL! Buttface dashed over, making his joy of finding them again apparent.

“D*mn, Your Holiness shouted In Pursuit of Treasure ten times before you opened the door. Don’t you even care about our news of Xuanyuan Wanrong? This is simply preposterous!” Buttface shouted as he ran in.

Not far away, Duan Jiude could be seen giving his body a shake, and then he too admonished Xu Que in a stern voice, “Xu Que, fellow, you have an exaggerated opinion of your own abilities. Xuanyuan Wanrong has already arrived here. What made you think she would wait to be picked up?”

AHEM! “Faction Leader, please pay closer attention the next time.” Mo Junchen cleared his throat and added his own comment.

Xu Que immediately raised his eyebrows and almost took out the Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod to bash these three fools on their heads.

“Utterly shameless and completely reckless!”

“How dare they butter up Xuanyuan Wanrong in front of me, the Act-Tough Saint?”

“I can let it go with Buttface and Duan Jiude, because they are always acting like idiots. But Mo Junchen, you’re an honest man, why are you joining in?”

“Did you destroy the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony?” At this time, a cold and familiar voice rang out.

Xu Que looked up to see Xuanyuan Wanrong slowly walk over. Her expression was cold, and there was a look of antipathy in her eyes, as if she still bore him a grudge over their previous confrontations.

Xu Que was also not a good-natured person. Once he had seen Xuanyuan Wanrong, he became very angry, and he sneered at her as he said, “If I hadn’t gone there to destroy it, don’t tell me I could’ve still relied on you? Come to think of it, I have already saved you twice. Your cultivation is really impressive-looking, but useless.”

“Do you want to give a try?” Xuanyuan Wanrong instantly released boundless pressure that rushed toward Xu Que.

BANG!

Suddenly, there was the sound of a blast in the air. A similarly powerful pressure swept out and directly knocked back Xuanyuan Wanrong’s pressure.

Immediately after, Zixia Fairy came out of the cave dwelling and coldly looked at Xuanyuan Wanrong.

Xuanyuan Wanrong didn’t get angry. After she’d swept a glance toward Zixia Fairy, she immediately restrained herself and decided not to bicker.

However, no one at the scene thought she was afraid. After all, with her strength, she was able to crush Zixia Fairy. People were somewhat unable to figure out her actions.

Why was Xuanyuan Wanrong able to be remarkable and peaceful in the face of other people and even take the initiative to give in? But when faced with Xu Que, she was always aggressive.

“D*mn, is it my fault that I’m so handsome?” Xu Que also realized the disparity between her treatment of him and everyone else and scolded her.

“Brother Que, mind your words in front of the celestial Xuanyuan. Do not be so impertinent.” Buttface looked stern and reminded Xu Que with a growl to be on his best behavior. As usual, he was every inch the opportunist.

Xu Que already couldn’t be bothered with Buttface. There was going to be a time to sort this fool out, but there was other proper business to take care of at present.

He lifted his head up and looked at Xuanyuan Wanrong, and he said calmly, “Since you’ve arrived, come over and see something, which you’ll most certainly recognize.”

“What is it?” Xuanyuan Wanrong asked with a frown.

She had heard some rumors on the way here that Xu Que had destroyed the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony. And now, all the forces in the Heaven Continent were ordering his arrest. Whether it was from his own will or forced by circumstances, no one dared to speak up for Xu Que at the moment.

The people of the Heaven Palace Sect had also twisted various arguments and fabricated the story that the One Chosen by Heaven was really going to be the savior who was going to save the Heaven Continent from the coming crisis. And then Xu Que and the Exploding Heavens Faction, who had lived off them while secretly helping others, had destroyed the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony, and now the Heaven Continent was trapped in turmoil.

Now, countless people from the Heaven Continent, who didn’t know the truth, regarded Xu Que as an enemy. In addition, since Xu Que had been missing for dozens of days without making any sign, it also implied that the Exploding Heavens Faction wasn’t making any rebuttal to these statements, leading more and more people to believe these rumors to be true.

However, Xuanyuan Wanrong knew the truth, and she was very clear about the real purpose of the Heaven Palace Sect, who were anxiously looking for the One Chosen by Heaven. The fact that Xu Que had to bear his name being blackened was wrong, but this was also the reason why she was still willing to come and see Xu Que, even after she’d found out that the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony had been destroyed.

Otherwise, if she’d known that the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony had been destroyed before learning about all the other information, she would’ve directly gone to the people of the Heaven Palace Sect to seek an accounting and basically wouldn’t have come to see Xu Que.

“Come see for yourself,” Xu Que impatiently replied and greeted Zixia Fairy before he directly turned back to the cave dwelling.

He really couldn’t maintain any favorable opinions of Xuanyuan Wanrong. It was not just because of their previous misunderstandings, but also because of an inexplicable rejection.

It was exactly like when one hated a person, inexplicably disliking that person at first glance. There was not much reason to it. No matter what actions the other side took, it would just cause one to feel rejection and disgust.

“F*ck, this is too much and preposterous,” Buttface immediately shouted.

“That’s right, you’re too much.” Duan Jiude seconded Buttface’s opinion.

“Too much.” Mo Junchen nodded in agreement as well.

“Yes, it’s too much… Hey, you guys wait for me. Did you forget about me?” The toy-poodle who was the reincarnation of the Eight-headed Serpent called out. It was so angry that it wanted to cry when it found that everyone had gone to the cave dwelling and forgotten about him.

At the same time, Xu Que, the first to step into the cave dwelling, had already arrived at that huge Heavenly Stone of Taiyi. Once everyone had entered the cave dwelling, he’d immediately re-sealed it to prevent the people of the Heaven Palace Sect from sensing their presence.

But without waiting for him to speak, the face of Xuanyuan Wanrong, who had just walked through the mouth of the cave dwelling, changed.

“You stole and brought here the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi?” she cried out in shock. She was completely flabbergasted.

“That goes without saying. Or else they would just have chosen a new…” Xu Que answered her with a cold snort. Then he had only finished half his sentence when there was a sudden BOOM! The Heavenly Stone of Taiyi shook and refracted two blazing golden beams, which completely shackled him and Xuanyuan Wanrong.

“F*ck, what’s going on?” Xu Que was stunned.

His own Celestial Core Power had been completely shackled, and his body simply couldn’t move. The golden beam pulled him up on the spot.

The people in the cave dwelling were also startled. Zixia Fairy reacted very quickly and issued a few Celestial Arts, but they went through the golden beam and basically didn’t disrupt it.

“You’ve done a stupid thing, a seriously stupid thing!” Xuanyuan Wanrong angrily glared at Xu Que and yelled.

She also couldn’t overcome that golden beam. Her body had also been pulled toward the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi.

“What the hell is going on here?” Xu Que asked quickly.

Xuanyuan Wanrong looked furious and wished she could bite Xu Que to death, as she gritted her teeth to say, “Two people Chosen by Heaven form a pair, and once they appear in front of the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi at the same time, they will be regarded as taking the initiative to go through the Relationship Tribulations.”

“What? I’m going to have to traverse the Relationship Tribulations with you? Come on, why didn’t you say so earlier?” Xu Que was dumbfounded once he heard her words and felt a chill in his heart.

“I am going to traverse the Relationship Tribulations with Xuanyuan Wanrong? Stop messing around! What’s the difference between this and death?”

If you’d informed me directly just now that you’d stolen the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi, we wouldn’t be…” Xuanyuan Wanrong said angrily.

However, suddenly the golden beam gave one last pull on Xu Que’s body, and he was completely dragged into the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi, disappearing without a trace.

Helplessness and reluctance flashed in Xuanyuan Wanrong’s eyes. There was also a hint of bitterness. Immediately after, she was also dragged by the golden beam and went into the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi, completely disappearing also.

There was a sudden silence in the cave dwelling.

Everyone had been completely taken aback. No one had expected such a situation to occur

Zixia Fairy looked at Jiang Hongyan, while Jiang Hongyan’s eyebrows were knitted into a deep frown. She felt as if she was at her wits’ end.

Liu Jingning’s mouth was wide open in disbelief.

Buttface, Duan Jiude, and the others were also dumbstruck. They looked at each other and said, “What…”

This was such a pain in the *ss. They had gone to great lengths to find Xuanyuan Wanrong and bring her here. And now it had led to this huge mistake.

…..

It was early in the morning and the sun was shining.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! On the road, an ear-piercing car horn was honking.

Xuanyuan Wanrong stood in the middle of the road, facing the car that was honking at her. Her face was full of alarm and confusion.

“Where…where am I?” She muttered to herself in a whisper. She felt utter disbelief and her forehead was creased with a deep frown.

“Girl, are you shooting a movie or are you a mental case? What are you doing, blocking the road in broad daylight? Quickly, get out of here! I am going to be late for work. Don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you’re pretty!” At this time, the sedan honking at Xuanyuan Wanrong rolled down its car window. A furious looking middle-aged woman yelled and stared at her.

Xuanyuan Wanrong frowned again. She was just about to open her mouth to ask something when she glimpsed a familiar figure from the corner of her eyes suddenly walk past her.

“Xu Que?” She was shocked. She wanted to dash forward to give chase after Xu Que, but then she discovered that she didn’t have any cultivation in her body.

“Oh, no, the most difficult kind of Relationship Tribulations!”

Xuanyuan Wanrong’s face abruptly looked serious. She turned around and hurriedly gave chase in the direction of that familiar figure.

Although just now that young man’s clothes looked equally as strange as the other people’s, and he had short hair. However, she clearly recognized Xu Que.

“What exactly is this little ruffian’s background? And what is this strange place? According to reason, the first round of Relationship Tribulations is nothing but to go to each other’s worlds from their memories of their first stirrings of true feelings. At this moment, I have appeared in the world of his memories. His memory should have been imprisoned by the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi. Only I can remember him, and I must make him transfer his true feelings to me so that his memory will be unlocked to traverse this Relationship Tribulation. But…why did the Heavenly Stone of Taiyi seal my cultivation?”

Xuanyuan Wanrong whispered to herself as she moved forward to catch up with Xu Que. “Unless it is because there are no cultivators in this place. But in the case of Relationship Tribulations, once you’re dead, it will be a real death. So, it is more dangerous in a place that has no cultivators. Such a Relationship Tribulations…bodes ill!”
