A group of people, who were led by four old men at the Infant Transformation Stage, were walking up to Xu Que. Behind them, there were many young men and women at the Golden Core Stage or the Original Infant Stage.

Among these young people, Xu Que spotted several familiar faces, including Zhang Suliang and Tang Xueru who used to deal with Xu Que when he was in the Five Elements Mountain.

Tang Xueru left a deep impression on Xu Que. When he had first crossed into this world, he had appeared under Tang Xueru’s butt. She had taken off her skirt and was about pee…

Also because of this misunderstanding, Xu Que had offended the Elder of the Celestial Sect. After that, he fled to the treasure house of the Celestial Sect and met Zhang Suliang, who was the senior apprentice of the Celestial Sect when he had been eating those stolen pills.

When Xu Que ruined over half of the Celestial Sect, Zhang Suliang and Tang Xueru left Celestial Sect together with many apprentices.

Xu Que met them again during the trial organized by the Sky Incense Valley. He seized the Star Miscanthus back for them. After that, Xu Que hadn’t seen them till now.

He didn’t expect he would see them in the South Continent after several years.

“Young Master Xu, do you remember me?” an old man at the Infant Transformation Stage asked. “I hosted the trial you participated in in the Fire Nation! You managed to reach the 8th floor of the Tower of Souls, which shocked me greatly. I didn’t expect you to also be in this place!” he said in surprise as he stared at Xu Que.

Xu Que realized these people were from the Sky Incense Valley.

Apparently, Zhang Suliang and Tang Xueru had successfully passed the trial and become apprentices of the Sky Incense Valley. Also, their civilization had seen rapid improvement. Tang Xueru had reached the Golden Core Stage. Zhang Suliang had even reached the Original Infant Stage. They progressed really quickly.

However, the old man brought some memories back into Xu Que’s mind when he mentioned the Tower of Souls.

He had met the Empress, who was naked, in that tower. The Empress’s beauty had shocked him!

He remembered the Empress used to be an apprentice of the Sky Incense Valley. Therefore, Xu Que folded his hands and spoke with a smile. “Seniors of the Sky Incense Valley, I’ve heard so much about you! Did you also come here to participate in the Mystery Land Trial?”

Xu Que was puzzled. After all, ordinary cultivators of the Five Elements Mountain were not able to come to this place. Although the Sky Incense Valley was one of the three biggest sects in the Five Elements Mountain, it was inferior to those third-rate sects overseas.

“Young Master Xu, you may not know the Sky Incense Valley is from the South Continent . . . ” the old man said with a smile.

It turned out that the Sky Incense Valley was a small sect in the South Continent. They coincidentally found the Ancient Teleportation Device which led to the Five Elements Mountain, so they established a branch in the Five Elements Mountain and tried to find talented new apprentices to strengthen their headquarters here.

In addition, the purpose for them to take in new apprentices in those years was to cultivate more apprentices for this Mystery Land Trial, so that more apprentices could become stronger by searching for opportunities and fortunes in the Mystery Land. This way, they could strengthen the entire sect.

Xu Que nodded. “I see!”

That was why the Empress chose to join the Sky Incense Valley after arriving at the Five Elements Mountain. Apparently, she fancied the foundation and background of this sect. After all, it was from the South Continent. The resources she got for her cultivation would be far more than what the other sects in the Five Elements Mountain could offer. Her cultivation progress would be faster.

“Young Master Xu, long time no see!” Zhang Suliang stepped forward and folded his hands, nodding at Xu Que.

Tang Xueru’s face was quite red. It seemed she also remembered first meeting Xu Que. However, she was not that stiff and said hello to Xu Que with a red face.

“It’s really been a long time!” Xu Que replied with a smile.

Then, he cut to the chase by asking the people of the Sky Incense Valley whether they knew the whereabouts of Duan Jiude.

They were shocked by Xu Que’s question. The old man at the Infant Transformation Stage leading their team gave him a wry smile. “Young Master Xu, frankly speaking, when we left for this place our Teleportation Device failed, so we just arrived here yesterday. Now we are still finding the encampment of our headquarters. You could join us. When we arrive at there, we will get news about that!”

“Eh, forget it! I provoked several enemies recently. I could be spotted by them at any time. If I go with you, you could be implicated by me!” Xu Que said with a hollow smile, refusing the old man with a wave of his hand.

No wonder these people had shown surprise and not shock when they first saw Xu Que. Apparently, they didn’t know Xu Que had become the enemy of the entire East Continent!

“Wait! Young Master Xu, your cultivation . . . ” the old man at the Infant Transformation Stage suddenly sensed something was wrong with Xu Que—his cultivation achievements were gone. It was as if he was just an ordinary person!

There were two possibilities for this. Either Xu Que had gone beyond the Form Synthesis Stage, so they couldn’t sense Xu Que’s cultivation, or Xu Que had lost his cultivation achievements and become an ordinary person!

“Alas! It is a sad story!” Xu Que exclaimed while shaking his head. “I provoked some enemies. Then, I found problems with the magic arts I had cultivated. Therefore, I destroyed my cultivation and became an ordinary person!”

Hearing that, Buttface leered at Xu Que disdainfully, but he didn’t debunk his story.

The people of the Sky Incense Valley were shocked by Xu Que’s words and didn’t believe what they heard.

The self-destruction of cultivation?

How could this be? It seems nobody has done that before. After all, after destroying one’s cultivation, the person could not successfully regain any cultivation achievements!

They were quite curious for they didn’t believe Xu Que could destroy his cultivation. His pathetic condition could have been caused by being seriously wounded by his enemy, or his enemy just depriving him of his cultivation achievements!

At the thought of this, their hearts filled with mixed emotions.

After being shocked for a while, the old man at the Infant Transformation Stage said with a smile, “Young Master Xu, don’t worry. The Sky Incense Valley is a small sect in the South Continent, but we do know a lot of people. Many sects could show due respect to us. If you have offended them, we could help you solve the trouble!”

Although Xu Que had lost his cultivation, he still cherished Xu Que’s natural endowment. He thought he should help Xu Que. If he could regain his cultivation achievements, his future would still be extraordinary!

Xu Que smiled. He knew if he told the old man he had offended all the big families and sects in the East Continent, he would be scared senseless on the spot!

However, he was still touched. He rarely met old acquaintances in this place. After learning he had become an ordinary person, the old man had even offered to help him. No matter what his purpose was, it was quite rare in the World of Cultivators!

“Thanks, but no thanks! I am kind of in a rush. I need to get news from others now. We’ll meet if fate allows it! Farewell!” Xu Que refused the old man’s kindness with a final shake of his head. Then, he turned around and left.

He knew clearly that the big families and sects could do nothing to hurt him because they didn’t know his background and history. They were not able to kill him, but they would definitely vent their rage on the Sky Incense Valley if they learned of his relationship to it.

To avoid implicating too many people, Xu Que left directly without any hesitation. The next moment, he had disappeared in the crowd together with Buttface.

Looking at Xu Que from behind, Zhang Suliang exclaimed together with the other cultivators.

Tang Xueru sighed slightly. “Alas! Things remain the same but men do not! When he was in the Five Elements Mountain, he was the top cultivator and invincible! I didn’t expect he could lose his cultivation and become an ordinary person overseas.”

“When I was in the Fire Nation, I also heard of a lot of senior Que’s heroic deeds,” an apprentice from the Five Elements Mountain said. “He has always been my role model! I never expected him to become an ordinary person! But why did he refuse our help?”

“I guess . . . this should be the dignity of a powerhouse!” Zhang Suliang said respectfully.

Someone shook his head. “Actually, if we place ourselves in his position, we can see that he’s ashamed to accept our help because he used to be the most powerful cultivator. He said he doesn’t want to implicate us, which is an excuse for him to avoid embarrassment!”

“Alas! What you said is right! If I were him, I wouldn’t have the nerve to face the old acquaintances.”

“That’s enough!” the old man at the Infant Transformation Stage interrupted “Stop talking about him. Let’s find our headquarters’ encampment. We are several months late. I’m afraid the main force has left.” He sighed in his heart and continued to lead the team forward.

However, just at this moment, an uproar occurred in the crowds behind them.

People of the Sky Incense Valley were surprised by the uproar, so they turned around to check it out.

The next moment, exclamations started to come from the turbulent crowd.

“F*ck! Look, that guy should be Xu Que, right?”

“Holy sh*t! He’s walking with a dog! That’s him!”

“My Gosh! He really has the nerve to come to the South Continent!”

“Several days ago, I heard news from the East Continent. He said he’s not Duan Jiude’s apprentice! He even plans to settle scores with Duan Jiude! I didn’t expect him to arrive so quickly!”

“Damn! Xu Que, I got you! Halt! The Jiang Family needs to settle scores with you!”

“The Gong Family will also seek revenge from you!”

“The Bai Family is waiting for you!”

“Hmph! The Carefree Building must kill you today!”
