“Sh*t!”

“Sh*t!” Buttface and Duan Jiude shouted at the same time, staring at Qiu Zili.

“What do you mean by that? I was reminding you for your own good, and you slander me? Go and ask, who in the Heaven Continent doesn’t know that I’m a righteous person?” Buttface was furious.

“This is too outrageous. People today have sadly degenerated, and the world is not what it used to be. I have lived for so long, and yet I have never seen anyone as rude as you,” Duan Jiude said angrily.

All the onlookers chose to remain silent, but their expressionless faces were enough to express their inner thoughts, which was this was bullsh*t.

Qiu Zili had clarity and insight. She had long known that Xu Que, Buttface, and Duan Jiude weren’t ordinary people. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have tied the Drug God onto the city wall and thrown poop at him.

Would anyone who did something so unethical be considered an ordinary person?

She must do the opposite of what such people said, and not trust a word out of their mouths.

“Xu Que, think it through. If you want to cooperate with me, I don’t mind helping you, but you have to attack first. If you’re not sincere about working together, then I can leave without interfering with the grudges you have,” Qiu Zili said with a smile.

“That’s a pity, indeed. I wanted to work with you.” Xu Que shrugged his shoulders, smiling slightly, and a coldness flashed in his eyes. “But...you can’t leave now even if you wanted to. This is an open threat. If you don’t attack her, I’ll make sure that the two of you go through this Heavenly Tribulation with me.”

BOOM!

As soon as he’d finished speaking, Xu Que clenched his fist at the sky, and soon another rumbling noise sounded in the void.

“Stop!” Qiu Zili immediately yelled.

Nishang Fairy’s expression had also changed, and she couldn’t help but take two steps back.

“Oh, don’t be afraid. As a Celestial Prime, how can you be afraid of me, a mere Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven? In fact, I was lying to you. I’ve already completed the Heavenly Tribulations, how can I summon another one?” Xu Que laughed sarcastically.

This time, he was telling the truth. He was not able to summon the Heavenly Tribulations any more and had been faking it right from the beginning, using the Heavenly Tribulations to frighten the two women.

But now, neither Nishang Fairy nor Qiu Zili believed him. Regardless of whether it was true or false, they didn’t trust anything he said.

Previously, they would certainly not have believed that Xu Que could summon a Heavenly Tribulation, but after witnessing Xu Que calling up Heavenly Thunders from the sky, they were very skeptical.

If he was able to dissipate the Heavenly Tribulations, why wouldn’t he be able to summon the Heavenly Tribulations?

Qiu Zili frowned and pursed her rosy lips and transmitted a message to Nishang Fairy. “Ling Nishang, even though I don’t know what the grudge you have with him is, please don’t implicate me. If we leave now, it won’t be too late!”

“You’ve seen the extent of his powers. If we don’t destroy him now, he will become a serious problem in the future.” Nishang Fairy responded, her face ashen.

Without Qiu Zili’s help, she wouldn’t be able to fight both Zixia Fairy and Xu Que at the same time, especially with Xu Que’s Heavenly Tribulations.

“That’s your palace’s problem. What does it have to do with me? In short, I can’t help you. Besides, this person has an extraordinary relationship with your sister. If your sister finds out that you killed him...” Qiu Zili said suddenly.

Nishang Fairy couldn’t help but frown.

If Qiu Zili didn’t help her, if she continued on her own, she would only end up dying.

Not to mention, she was also a little worried about what Qiu Zili had said. Xiao Rou had only temporarily lost her memory, and if she became the Emperor in the future, then this wouldn’t put Nishang Fairy in a good light.

Although doing this was, on the surface, for her own benefit, in reality, it was also for the future of the Imperial Palace. If Xiao Rou really got back her memory in the future, she might also harbor a grudge. If she risked her life today to get rid of Xu Que, only to become Xiao Rou’s enemy, would it be worth it?

Nishang Fairy’s heart began to waver.

If Xu Que could be easily killed, she would definitely not have had so many doubts and wouldn’t have considered whether Xiao Rou would get even with her in the future.

But now, in this case, she hesitated.

In fact, she was loyal to the Sacred Moon Palace and the Imperial Palace, and everything she did was for the Imperial Palace. But the doubts she had at the moment were her only reasons to retreat.

She had found enough reasons to retreat.

“Okay, let’s retreat together.” In the end, Nishang Fairy nodded and transmitted the message to Qiu Zili.

Qiu Zili breathed a sigh of relief. If Nishang Fairy had been stubborn, she would’ve definitely chosen to help Xu Que.

In her eyes, with the Heavenly Tribulation, together with Zixia Fairy, the odds of Xu Que winning would be too great, and she had no reason to risk her life to help Nishang Fairy.

Of course, killing Nishang Fairy wouldn’t be a good thing for her. After all, everyone in the Sacred Moon Palace knew that Nishang Fairy had been chasing her. If she died like this, the Sacred Moon Palace would surely trace the matter back to her. This would alert the Sacred Moon Palace and bring trouble for the Heavenly Demon Palace.

So now that Nishang Fairy had promised to retreat, it was the best-case scenario for Qiu Zili.

Leaving together to avoid casualties, what could be better than that!

“How’s the discussion going? Are you ready to attack?” At this moment, Xu Que looked at Qiu Zili with a smile and asked a question.

“Xu Que, we’ve finished this discussion. We’ll all pretend that nothing ever happened today. Whatever grievances you have with her, you can settle them in the future. But now, we don’t want to have a big fight. Good-bye!” As Qiu Zili finished speaking solemnly, her eyes met the gaze of Nishang Fairy.

WHOOSH!

The two of them instantly left at the same time to a place outside Tian Sha City.

“Oh, you’ve offended the Exploding Heavens Faction and still want to run away? Buttface, Duan Jiude, go and deal with the two of them!” Xu Que immediately sneered and called his assistants to chase down and kill them.

Nishang Fairy and Qiu Zili heard his shouts, and their faces darkened.

“This was too aggravating.”

These two powerful people of the Celestial Prime level, widely recognized in the Celestial Cloud Continent, were actually being hunted down by a Disbanded Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven?

Wouldn’t that be too embarrassing if the word of this got out?

Even though it was annoying, since the two had chosen to retreat, they had no plans to continue fighting with Xu Que.

“So be it, let’s use a spell to use a secret method to wake up a Divine Talisman to return to the Celestial Cloud Continent. We’ll settle this with him in the future,” Qiu Zili said to Nishang Fairy, as she saw that Xu Que was really chasing them.

“What’d you say? Do you realize that awakening the Divine Talisman will cost us at least 30 percent of our life spans?” Nishang Fairy’s expression changed, as she looked at Qiu Zili with surprise.

Qiu Zili smiled bitterly. “Oh, what do you think? Is it more costly to stay here and fight with him or to lose 30 percent of our life spans? Also, your Divine Talisman is very valuable, but if we don’t use it now, I am afraid it will be useless in the future.”

After hearing this, Nishang Fairy clenched her teeth fiercely and changed her state of mind. She took out a black talisman from her storage ring and placed it in front of her.

POOF!

The next moment, the two of them clawed at their chests at the same time and spit out a strand of blood essence, which turned into blood mist. They sprinkled this onto the black talisman.

The entire black talisman instantly turned into flames, burning the void and carving out a door.

“Xu Que, remember this, if you ever dare to step into the Celestial Cloud Continent in the future, I will settle all my grievances with you,” Nishang Fairy said, stepping into the door and staring at Xu Que coldly.

“Bullsh*t! If you had any guts, you wouldn’t run. You’d fight with me!” Xu Que chased after them, shouting loudly.

The figure of Nishang Fairy fluttered and entered into the void.

Qiu Zili followed closely behind. Glancing at Xu Que before leaving, she said suddenly with a charming smile, “Good luck. I hope that one day, I’ll see you in the Celestial Cloud Continent!”

“If you have any guts, don’t run!” Xu Que shouted.

WHOOSH!

Qiu Zili didn’t pause and rushed into the void!

Subsequently, the door to the void closed instantly and turned into a speck the size of a grain of rice, and, with a flash, the sky instantly returned to its original appearance.

“Sh*t, they got away.” Xu Que stopped. He beat his chest, face full of anger.

In fact, he’d had no intention of catching up with them and had deliberately slowed down in order to let the two women escape successfully.

After all, he really couldn’t summon the Heavenly Tribulations. In addition, the System was still being upgraded. Without empty threats, he’d had no other hope to beat these two people of the Celestial Prime level.

“D*mn, we were too slow.” Buttface was just showing up.

HMPH! “Luckily they ran away quickly, otherwise, I would’ve definitely killed someone at the Celestial Prime level today,” Duan Jiude said in a domineering manner.

“What a pity. If I’d known earlier, I would have used the Commander’s seal and summoned the millions of people from the Exploding Heavens Faction to surround them and kill them!” Buttface shook his head, his face full of regret.

“.....”

The onlookers were silent. No one could believe what they had just witnessed.

Originally, they’d thought that there would be a big fight, and they’d be able to witness people of the Celestial Prime level fighting, which they’d never been seen before.

Now, two powerful people of the Celestial Prime level who came from outside the Heaven Continent had fled without a fight.

The important thing was that when Buttface and Duan Jiude had been shouting ruthlessly, they seemed to have revealed a piece of unbelievable news.

“There were millions of members of the Exploding Heavens Faction?”

“Were they all devils?”
