Tsk!

Everyone who saw Xu Que couldn't help but inhale a mouthful of cold air. They were astounded.

"What an … extraordinary young man!"

"Goodness, this young hero must be an elite from a large sect!"

"But not quite though, look at how he carries himself. He is clearly a young master from a significant family!"

"Indeed, such airs… one look and you know he's not from a simple family."

"Elegant, well-mannered, he must be a genius from a big sect or reputable family!"

"Young master, please tell us your name!" a female cultivator cried.

Xu Que blew out a puff of smoke that formed a ring. "I'm Takumi Fujiwara," he replied simply. "I am the Speed Star of Mount Akina, my nickname is Old Driver, and my hobby is drag racing!"

Fujiwara? The name rang in everyone's heads.

All of a sudden, everyone was even more stunned.

There isn't such a surname in Metal Nation. Could it be that he is from a mysterious significant family or from other nations? And that Exploding Heavens Faction… never heard of it either! Queries ran through their minds.

"What? Exploding Heavens Faction?"

A cry of surprise came from the rear of the crowd.

All the people turned back to look. It was an elite cultivator from Jade Sword Sect, who had a perturbed expression on his face.

In reality, the elite cultivator was terrified inside his mind. When the sect had returned to Metal Nation, they had not spread the news of Ye Chang Feng's defeat but instead, they had tried their best to keep such news under wraps.

This was because the Legendary Swordsman had too great an influence in Metal Nation. Such a defeat could never be made known to outsiders. Once spread, the whole Jade Sword Sect could also be implicated and become a laughing stock. The consequences were unimaginable!

Only a few elites in Jade Sword Sect knew what had truly happened. Although this particular cultivator had not been present then, he remembered the name—Exploding Heavens Faction and Ye Liang Chen.

So when he heard the name Exploding Heavens Faction, he was unnerved and couldn't help but give an involuntary yell.

Since this young man was from the Exploding Heavens Faction, he was 80 percent sure that this man knew that Ye Chang Feng had been defeated by Ye Liang Chen of the Exploding Heavens Faction.

This type of bad news must be controlled. At the very least, the news must not be spread within the Metal Nation. Otherwise, Jade Sword Sect's dignity risks being destroyed throughout the entire Metal Nation, the elite cultivator thought. No! I must stop him from spreading this piece of news!

The next moment, without a care for the surprised looks of the crowd, the elite cultivator came forward and walked straight up to Xu Que.

"Fellow cultivator, I need to talk to you!"

He placed a hand on Xu Que's shoulder. His tone was sure and firm.

Xu Que scrunched an eyebrow and looked at the man in front of him. He was rather unhappy. "Who are you?" Xu Que asked with a frown. "I don't want to buy insurance policies, I don't need loans and I am not short of money. Yeah, I spent 150,000 yuan abroad! But I don't know you, if you need my service for sperm donations in order to have a kid, please send over a beautiful young woman who is 30 years old or younger, thank you!"

The man seemed slightly startled and shook his head. "Fellow cultivator, what nonsense are you talking? Please come with me, I need to discuss something with you!"

"I have nothing to discuss with you, and remove your pig-like hand from my shoulder," Xu Que scolded the cultivator immediately. "Do you know how expensive my clothes are? You don't know anything and you decide to just touch my shoulder like that? Do you think I'll beat you up?"

The whole crowd froze with a confused expression upon hearing that.

"Geez, this young man is neither elegant nor well-mannered at all!"

"I originally thought that he was a sensible and graceful young master, but he has turned out to be a very vulgar person!"

"The appearance and the heart do not always match up!"

"This young man is really ignorant, Jade Sword Sect's Zhang Li Yun has come to talk to him, yet he is behaving so rudely towards him."

"He's definitely going to be taught a lesson. Zhang Li Yun is one of the young elites in Jade Sword Sect alongside Ye Chang Feng and several others. I heard his temper is not that good either."

"But then again, Zhang Li Yun is usually a loner, why has he suddenly taken the initiative to talk to this young man?"

"I think he might have taken a fancy towards that divine chariot!"

"This type of divine chariot is too eye-catching. Since he has flaunted it by driving it outside, he can't prevent people from coveting it!"

"Although this young man has hidden his stage of cultivation, he can only really bluff the ordinary people. It is definitely futile against someone like Zhang Li Yun, who is a young genius."

The crowd shook their heads and started to sympathise with Xu Que.

However, much to everyone's surprise, Zhang Li Yun did not flare up. He took a deep breath and continued talking to Xu Que. "Fellow cultivator, could you consider what's at stake for the Jade Sword Sect and let me talk to you? This matter is really very important."

For the sake of the Jade Sword Sect, Zhang Li Yun swallowed his pride.

However, Xu Que's eyes lit up when he heard the words 'Jade Sword Sect'.

"Jade Sword Sect? Ha, so you're from the Jade Sword Sect! I finally found you… that someone! … You have the so-called Legendary Swordsman in your sect! Call him out, I heard—"

"Fellow cultivator!"

Xu Que did not manage to finish his words and was interrupted by Zhang Li Yun.

Zhang Li Yun was truly scared. He was afraid that Xu Que would blurt out the truth about that matter.

It was hard to imagine the consequences if this matter was leaked out. Not only would the Trial of the Sword Catacomb be affected, but he was also sure that the whole Metal Nation would find out the truth in less than ten days.

"Fellow cultivator, I'll certainly give you a satisfactory price. But we need to go somewhere quiet to talk, is that okay with you?" Zhang Li Yun pretended to be interested in Xu Que's divine chariot, and he was trying hard to pretend to be calm.

"A satisfactory price? Is this for real? I'm someone who doesn't ask for a price easily, and when I do, I'll ask for something big!"

Xu Que had figured out what the Jade Sword Sect was up to. He curled his lips up and smiled.

However, in his heart, he was pondering over how to act tough to earn more points.

Money?

A big sum of money?

Do you think this can be compared to my Acting Tough Points?

I reject all transactions that are not for the purpose of acting tough.

The Jade Sword Sect should have a good reputation and high status in Metal Nation!

That Legendary Swordsman, Ye Chang Feng, also enjoys great fame in Metal Nation!

So, what more is there to discuss?

When you want to tread on someone, tread on the face of a genius!

When acting tough, aim for the highest amount of return!

I'm acting tough about what I did, so others can't do anything to me about it.

All these were Xu Que's quotes for life!

...

Zhang Li Yun was slightly taken aback as Xu Que appeared to have compromised without much effort on his part. He had thought that people from Exploding Heavens Faction had a strange temperament and would be hard to negotiate with.

But now it seemed like this Takumi Fujiwara guy was friendlier—although he was full of nonsense and vulgarities, his temper seemed just fine.

Zhang Li Yun was slightly relieved. In any case, as long as Xu Que promised not to mention that Ye Chang Feng, the Legendary Swordsman, had been defeated by Ye Liang Chen with a single stroke, he believed that Jade Sword Sect could afford the required remuneration.

Immediately, he nodded. "No problem my fellow cultivator, as long as it's within the capacities of the Jade Sword Sect, we'll definitely try our best to fulfil your demands."

Xu Que was smiling with his mouth closed, the corners of his eyes curved. "Actually my demand is very simple. I don't want money. Just ask the Legendary Swordsman, Ye Chang Feng, to come out now! I want to challenge him!"
