Clang!
Clang!
As the metal box dropped on the ground, along with the sound of a machine operating, a lot of metal sheets gushed out and started to wrap up Xu Que's body starting from his feet. In the blink of an eye, he had been turned into an iron man!
Flop! Flop! Flop!
At the same time, a lot of puppets in front of them started to quicken their heavy steps and dash toward Xu Que!
Xu Que raised his arms, which were covered by steel armor. Dazzling white light appeared in his palms!
Swish!
A giant light beam gushed out from his palm abruptly!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A group of puppets exploded in the white light beam and were turned into small pieces, falling to the ground!
Swish!
Xu Que raised both of his arms and continued to fire white light beams.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Another group of puppets were smashed into pieces and fell to the ground.
The cultivators behind Xu Que were totally shocked by him, who had turned himself into the Iron Man. What…the hell is this? How could it be so destructive?
Meanwhile, Zixia Fairy was also stunned, and her face was full of disbelief!
Rumble!
Suddenly, a large bang erupted. The passage shook violently. Several puppets at the Infant Transformation Stage, which were covered by golden light, quickened their steps and started to rush toward Xu Que with magnificent power!
"No!" Zixia Fairy's expression changed, and she tried to grab Xu Que with her hands. However, she was not as fast as Xu Que!
Whoosh!
Dazzling light appeared on the chest of Xu Que's steel armor. Then, a red-hot light beam dashed out toward the puppets abruptly!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The puppets at the Infant Transformation Stage were smashed by the fiery light beam into small pieces and fell to the ground directly! All of a sudden, the passage was in a dead silence!
Zixia Fairy was surprised! The cultivators were also dumbfounded!
"How…could this be?"
"How could he smash so many puppets in such a short time?"
"My God!"
When they came to themselves at last from the terror, they finally figured out the reason!
They remembered Xu Que had said that he learned the mechanic knowledge when he was a kid and was good at finding weak points of puppets. Now they knew what Xu Que had said was true. Compared to his steel armor and destructive light beams, the bodies of those puppets were weak points indeed!
Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in acting tough successfully. The reward is 800 Acting Tough Points!"
Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in acting tough successfully. The reward is 1,000 Acting Tough Points!"
…
Along with the warning tone of the System, Xu Que returned the armor of the Iron Man to the System reluctantly, as if he hadn't earned enough from it. He didn't suffer a loss this time. He spent 800 Acting Tough Points to rent the armor of the Iron Man, which earned over 1,000 Acting Tough Points for him!
However, he was not satisfied with the result. Among all these people, except for Zixia Fairy who was quite powerful, the rest of the cultivators' stages were too low. If he acted tough in front of those powerhouses in the four continents, he would have earned at least 10,000 Acting Tough Points this time!
"My fellow cultivators, Lady Azi, we can walk on now!" Xu Que said with a smile as he looked at Zixia Fairy and the cultivators.
Zixia Fairy had come to herself. She asked in a low voice, looking at Xu Que curiously, "What kind of artifact is the armor you wore just now? I didn't feel any fluctuation of Spiritual Qi in it. How could it be extremely powerful like that?"
"Um, that's the equipment developed by the Science & Technology Department of our Exploding Heavens Faction! And its name is Iron Man of the Exploding Heavens Faction!" Xu Que said proudly.
However, his words stunned the cultivators immediately. Even Zixia Fairy also seemed very surprised.
"The Exploding Heavens Faction? My God! Now I know why you are so powerful! You are a sovereign of the Exploding Heavens Faction!" The cultivators exclaimed immediately. The Exploding Heavens Faction was very famous in the Five Elements Mountain!
Almost at the same time, Zixia Fairy stared at Xu Que coldly, and she asked seriously, "Joker, tell me, do you know a womanizer whose name is Xu Que?"
Um…
Xu Que's heart trembled a bit!
Oh, no, I spilled the beans, and it has exposed my identity!
When he was in the Mystery Land of the South Continent, he told Zixia Fairy he was Xu Que of the Exploding Heavens Faction when he provoked her. If he had left a bad impression on Zixia Fairy, she wouldn't have a good feeling about the Exploding Heavens Faction either!
No, I have to remedy the situation!
Xu Que suppressed the guilty feeling in his heart and said in a surprised voice, "Lady Azi, you know Xu Que? But…why do you say he is a womanizer? I guess there must have been misunderstandings between you and him!"
"Misunderstandings?" Zixia Fairy said with a chilly expression. "Joker, I'm afraid you have misunderstandings about him! Xu Que is a vile person. How could you become a member of his faction?"
"Ah?" Xu Que pretended he was shocked and was about to say something. However, the cultivators started to yell angrily suddenly, "Shut up! What's wrong with you, woman? Why do you insult Xu Que?"
"Xu Que is the proud master of our Water Nation. He used to recover lost territories and put down rebellions for the Water Nation. He also established the Wanda Mall of the Exploding Heavens Faction to benefit our people. Thanks to him, all of us have realized remarkable progress in cultivation! How could you insult him like that?"
"Right! Sometimes his measures were mean. But he only used those mean measures when he was offended by others!"
"Exactly! Xu Que is a good man in the final analysis, who is much better than those hypocrites. You are not allowed to insult him like that!"
The cultivators stared at Zixia Fairy angrily, as they stood up for Xu Que. Xu Que was dumbfounded by their words. Zixia Fairy was also surprised. Apparently, she didn't expect these people would describe Xu Que as such a good man and even defend him.
This is not…correct!
That womanizer provoked me in the Mystery Land first. Then, he ruined half of the Elixir Plantation. At last, he even took liberties with me when I was condensing my soul. The annihilation of Xu Que should be deemed as getting rid of an evil for the world. How could someone think Xu Que was a good man?
"Humph, all of you were cheated by him!" Zixia Fairy snorted. She was annoyed whenever the name of Xu Que was mentioned.
"Impossible! What Xu Que did for our Water Nation can be seen by everyone!" the cultivators retorted angrily.
Xu Que couldn't help but blush. It is really embarrassing to be praised by you like this!
"Joker!" Zixia Fairy shouted as she stared at Xu Que coldly.
Xu Que, who was surprised, shouted hurriedly, "I'm here!"
"Tell me, between me and Xu Que, who do you believe?" Zixia Fairy tried to prove she was right like a stubborn girl. Xu Que was amazed by her reaction. Suddenly, he felt the temperament of Zixia Fairy was quite like that of the Zixia Fairy in A Chinese Odyssey!
"Lady Azi, I really don't know how…to answer your question! Actually, I believe both of you. Also, Xu Que is really a good man. Maybe there is really a misunderstanding between you and him!" Xu Que said perplexedly.
He knew he would earn some good feeling if he said he believed Zixia Fairy! However, according to his style, he would never degrade himself when he tried to flirt with a girl!
"There is no misunderstanding!" Zixia Fairy's face darkened, and she walked away directly. Apparently, she was annoyed. Before this, when she was ridiculed for her appearance by others, she was not angry at all. However, she was annoyed by Xu Que's words suddenly.
The cultivators also stood there angrily. They thought Zixia Fairy was making trouble out of nothing by insulting the heroic Xu Que who had achieved great accomplishments. Xu Que was totally stunned and bewildered by this situation.
What the hell is this?
"Joker, are you still going to stay here?" Zixia Fairy, who had walked ahead of Xu Que, turned around and looked at Xu Que, a little snappishly.
Hah-hah!
Xu Que's eyes lit up. It turned out this woman could be so cute! Look at her snappish face! Look at her little nose, which was wrinkled up slightly!
Tsk-tsk-tsk!
If she didn't disguise herself with such an ugly face, she would really look like that Zixia Fairy in the movie! However, this was still fine! At least she had stopped acting otherworldly like before!
"Coming!" Xu Que smiled to himself and replied as he ran toward her.
