Seeing this, Liu Jingning was rather shocked. She couldn’t believe it.
He asked Hongyan to behave herself . . . and Hongyan just allowed him to?!
Liu Jingning stared at Hongyan in great surprise.
In her view, Jiang Hongyan had always been a very calm and gentle soul. In fact, it was exactly because of her calmness that all the Holy Sons and Holy Virgins felt a sense of inferiority in front of her.
Jiang Hongyan never meant to make anyone feel like this—it was just because she was too outstanding. Anyone who stood in front of her either felt a sense of inferiority or felt the need to work hard and catch up with her.
No one had ever really surpassed Hongyan, both in terms of their power or their characteristics. Even a talented genius like Dong Genji had never been able to surpass her. All these years, Dong Genji had worked hard to win Hongyan’s heart, and everyone knew it, but he had never managed to win her heart.
For the first time ever, Liu Jingning saw her really accepting someone . . .
“She can’t be in love . . . ”
The next minute, Hongyan picked up the green armor and put it on, and put a cross-shaped accessory into her pocket.
She really put on that ugly armor—just as Xu Que told her to. My goodness!
Liu Jingning was so surprised that she covered her tiny mouth with her hands.
In her view, both the green armor and the accessory were nothing special. She couldn’t believe Hongyan had just done what Xu Que told her to.
“They really fell in love with each other?!”
Liu Jingning was stunned.
At the same time, she grew more curious about Xu Que.
How on earth has he managed to win Hongyan’s heart?!
In fact, Jiang Hongyan had seen this green armor before. Xu Que wore this when he went through his thunder tribulations. More importantly, this green armor could weaken the power of the thunder tribulations. That was why she quickly put it on without hesitation.
She also figured Liu Jingning was thinking something was going on between her and Xu Que, but she didn’t want to explain herself.
Suddenly, a scene flashed through Jiang Hongyan’s mind: when both of them were still in the Water Nation and Xu Que lied on the ground, pretending he was injured and saying he would only get up on the condition that Hongyan kissed him.
…
At the same time, Xu Que was walking around the outskirts of the Celestial Burial Valley.
Since he had mastered the dragon-hunting formula, he was able to analyze the topography. In his eyes, the entire Celestial Burial Valley looked like a sharp sword that pointed directly at the Eastern Continent, and the point of the sword was the entrance to the Celestial Burial Valley.
Obviously, the Celestial Burial Valley is easy to guard and hard to attack. I can set up some magic arrays and trap the cultivators.
For those cultivators, the Celestial Burial Valley was also the perfect place to trap Jiang Hongyan. They planned to gather together at the entrance of the Celestial Burial Valley, and on the other end of the Celestial Burial Valley there was no way out. This way, Jiang Hongyan would be trapped inside and could not possibly run away.
In fact, the idea of running away never crossed Xu Que’s mind since he had decided to teach the cultivators a good lesson.
“The advanced level incantations have cost me lots of Acting Tough Points. But anyway, I can use them to fight against the cultivators of the Void Training Stage.”
Xu Que looked at the array appearing on the screen of the System and smiled.
Currently, he only had 6,000 Acting Tough Points, while a high-level magic array cost about 4,000 Acting Tough Points.
Even so, Xu Que had decided to spend his Acting Tough Point buying an array of high level, as long as he could kill more people. Besides, if he managed to upgrade his level, he could act tough more easily and gain more Acting Tough Points.
“The topography here is rather dangerous, and there are many options for me to choose. For example, the Myriad Flame Incinerate Ghosts spell plus the Mystical Fires would be extremely powerful. No matter how many cultivators there are, I could easily kill them all!”
Xu Que looked at the screen and nodded.
Once I set up an array with the Mysterious Stone, the Myriad Flame Incinerate Ghosts Spell could easily be activated. Besides, with the Mystical Fires, its energy would be three times stronger. Most importantly, it only costs 5,000 Acting Tough Points.
“My goodness! Do you really have such a powerful magic array that can kill all the cultivators at present?”
Buttface was shocked when he heard Xu Que murmuring.
“I’m just at the Infant Transformation Stage, and even if I can practice a high-level magic array I can’t make the most use of it. There are just too many cultivators here. To kill them all, I would have to find some other way!”
I don’t have any extra time to upgrade my level now, and I also don’t have enough Acting Tough Points. I have to find some other way!
“Do you mean you want to put them off by throwing Stinky Tofu at them? You can count me in on that. I’m sure they can’t stand the smell of stinky tofu.”
Buttface spoke with great excitement. Obviously, he was craving stinky tofu again.
“F*ck the stinky tofu! F*ck off! I’m going to set up an array!”
Xu Que took out a flag and quickly penetrated the ground with one end of it.
A sudden tornado of Spiritual Qi appeared and it became windy. He threw another piece of Spiritual Stone on the ground, and the tornado moved in another direction.
Xu Que was standing rather far from the others. All the cultivators knew he was setting up an array, but no one really cared.
Usually, only someone from either an influential Faction or Family was able to set up a powerful array by consuming a huge amount of resources and labor. That was why they didn’t feel threatened by the array set up by Xu Que.
Dong Genji left from the entrance. Soon, a few young ladies walked toward him.
Obviously, they had all come from the Carefree Building.
“That young man came to help Jiang Hongyan?!” A young, beautiful lady laughed. “That’s really interesting. He wants to set up an array outside of the Celestial Burial Valley!”
“He’s just in the Infant Transformation Stage. He can, at best, set up a basic level array!” a young man mocked.
Hearing this, another young man shook his head and said, “I don’t think so. He’s setting up the array with a spell flag. I think the array must be a middle level!”
“Don’t be ridiculous! He’s just in the Infant Transformation Stage, this can’t be possible! You know what? Even we, who come from the Carefree Building, only know one way of setting up a middle-level array.”
“Don’t underestimate that young man! He looks so confident, I’m afraid he has got some potential!”
“Never mind! Even if he knows how to set up an array in the middle class, so what?! He can not possibly stop the cultivators from getting into the valley!”
“Things are getting more and more interesting now! They decided not to kill Jiang Hongyan, but only to destroy all her cultivation!”
“Our leader can finally have Jiang Hongyan to himself!”
