Swish!

Instantly, the old man was stunned. The woman in black beside him was also struck dumb!

The invincible ancient overbearing mosquito?

Don’t try to fool us!

Could you use a more sophisticated name? Nobody will be fooled by this shabby name!

“Old man, come on, I’ve sensed my internal force can’t control it anymore. Just take out the map, so that I can whack this damn mosquito with it!” Xu Que shouted with difficulty as his face turned pale. The old man and the woman in black were so annoyed that they almost spat blood when they saw Xu Que acting apparently serious.

“Bastard! What are you doing? Just release my grandpa!” The woman in black scolded angrily.

The old man frowned and said seriously, “Young man, this is just so unscrupulous! I tried to cooperate with you sincerely. How could you do this to me?”

“I haven’t sensed any sincerity, which is the basis of cooperation, from you. Do you think I am just a three-year-old boy? Did you think I would bite any bait you threw at me?” Xu Que sneered.

If the old man had taken out the map, Xu Que would really have considered it cooperation. However, up until now, all the information provided by the old man was just a one-sided story. As a cultivator who had survived in the World of Cultivators for so many years, Xu Que would never believe others easily unless he could see the evidence with his own eyes.

Moreover, the old man didn’t want to take out the map, which meant he didn’t trust Xu Que. In this way, how could Xu Que trust the old man?

Howl! “Little brat, let me make a body search!” Buttface rushed up at this time and tried to search the old man recklessly.

The old man’s expression changed. He had seen this dog kick the Elder Young Master of the Ghost King Palace to death, which meant this dog was reckless. If the dog searched him with too much force, he would also be killed, which was something he didn’t want.

“Stop! I can take out the map myself!” The old man shouted.

“Grandpa, you….” the woman in black said hurriedly.

“It doesn’t matter! I believe this young man won’t eat his words!” The old man replied with a calm smile. Actually, he was lying through his teeth. He didn’t believe Xu Que would keep faith. Also he knew clearly that his business would only be slightly influenced even if he took out the map, so it was not as important as all that.

After all, he knew the route clearly. When the Refined Moon Palace was opened, he would go directly to the Ice Valley. If Xu Que also wanted to go there, he would melt the Ice Valley to clear the way. Then the old man could also go to the Ice Valley by following Xu Que.

“Holy crap! I thought he was an expert! I didn’t expect that he would be intimidated by my mighty power! Alas! I am just too powerful!” Buttface was quite disappointed when the old man was scared by his power and chose to be cooperative.

At this time, the old man had taken out the map. It was quite old and ripped in places where the incomplete route was printed.

“What?” Xu Que was stunned when he saw the map. He said, squinting his eyes, “It is on human skin! Old man, don’t tell me you got it from someone’s body!”

“Exactly!” The old man admitted it directly. “Indeed, it is on human skin, and I got it from a guy’s body personally. However, when I did that, the man had died!”

“Oh? How did the man die?” Xu Que asked with a smile.

The old man shook his head, “It had nothing to do with me. This guy was attacked by a trap in the Refined Moon Palace. He fell on a giant burning rock, where the map of the Refined Moon Palace was carved. Therefore, part of the map was printed on his chest. When I found him, he was already dead!”

“A giant burning rock? Why didn’t you put out the fire on the rock, so that you could get the complete map?” Xu Que asked.

The old man replied with a wry smile, “Young man, if you saw that rock, you wouldn’t say that! At that time, I approached that rock with nine other people. In the end, only I survived. That rock is surrounded by all kinds of traps. It is even protected by the Giant Rock Golems, which are at least as powerful as you!”

“Really?” Xu Que replied with a faint smile, ignoring the old man’s words. Because the old man knew nothing about his strength at all! He had killed Boss Li with the Flame Devouring Wave and the Buddha’s Fiery Lotus. If he used his most powerful magic art to throw out a Five Elements Mountain, the old man would be scared out of his wits!

The old man saw Xu Que kill Boss Li. Now he said that the Giant Rock Golems were as powerful as Xu Que, which meant those golems should at least have reached the summit of the Form Synthesis Stage or even the summit of the Crossing Calamity Stage!

“OK! I’ve remembered the map. I’ll see you outside the Refined Moon Palace in two days!” Xu Que memorized the route and told the old man with a smile. Since he had decided to enter the Refined Moon Palace, he didn’t care how many people would go with him. Anyway, he would take anything he wanted, which could never be taken away by others.

“OK! Thank you, young man! I’ll see you in two days!” The old man said with a smile.

Xu Que didn’t waste any more words. He jumped up into the sky, stepping on lightning. Then he went back to the First Realm with Jiang Hongyan and his teammates. Seeing them leaving, the woman in black asked in a low voice as she turned to the old man, “Grandpa, you are as powerful as he is! Why didn’t you capture him just now?”

“Heh, heh, he will be startled if I expose my strength too early. The current situation is just I want!” The old man smiled as the light of wisdom flashed in his eyes.

…..

At the same time, in the sky, Jiang Hongyan said with a faint smile as she looked at Xu Que, “That old man was at least at Level 5 of the Great Vehicle Stage!”

“I know!” Xu Que said with a smile. “He tried to disguise himself to beat me! But I am not ordinary! At the very least, I am a dragon!”

Howl! “Little brat, what do you mean? Stop insulting the dragon race!” Buttface said angrily after hearing Xu Que’s words.

“Damn! Buttface, you want a good smack, right? You are more and more arrogant!” Xu Que said.

Buttface puffed out his cheat and said sturdily, “Nobody should insult the dragon race! As an unyielding and hot-blooded cultivator, I fear neither Heaven nor Earth…. Howl! Howl! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! “It hurts so much! I’m dying! I’m dying! I was wrong!”

They drifted away, clamoring loudly.

…..

On the second day, Xu Que and his team landed outside First Realm City. They were ushered in by the Dong Family immediately. The old woman didn’t show up. Xu Que didn’t want to chat with her anyway. In the night, he slipped into Jiang Hongyan’s room. Xu Feifei had already gone to bed. Jiang Hongyan was performing cultivation by sitting on the bed with her legs crossed. When she saw Xu Que, she opened her eyes slightly. Xu Que sat beside her with a smile and started to chat. He mentioned the old woman in the Celestial Realm.

Hearing that, Jiang Hongyan was quite surprised. She didn’t realize there were so many stages after the Great Vehicle Stage, including the Half Celestial Realm, the Human Celestial Realm, the Earth Celestial Realm, the Heaven Celestial Realm, and the Golden Celestial Realm. The entire Celestial Realm was really a long route to cultivation.

“We still have a long way to go in the cultivation! When will we reach the end of it?” Jiang Hongyan sighed after a moment’s silence.

Xu Que shook his head for he didn’t know when they would end their cultivation. He didn’t think about the future like Jiang Hongyan did. Anyway, his purpose was quite simple—being immortal! Moreover, he hoped he could live happily forever!

The night was not long. Xu Que fell asleep by placing his head on Jiang Hongyan’s leg. At daybreak, Xu Que was awakened by the noisy members of the Dong Family. When he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Hongyan’s extremely beautiful face. However, she was staring out the window seriously.

Xu Que turned to the window and was stunned by what he saw. The sky was filled with red light! This blood-red color came from a half-moon in the sky!
