How can this be possible?

Liu Jingning could not believe what she saw.

When Jiang Hongyan went through her thunder tribulation for the first time, Xu Que tried everything he could to withstand the power of the golden sword, but most of the time he simply ran away from it.

Back then, he indeed fought against it with his whole body and his bones all were broken and he almost died.

But this time, even if he was just at the highest level of the Infant Transformation Stage, he managed to fight against the golden sword with his fists containing the magnificent Taoist Connotation. Most important, Xu Que was not hurt at all.

“His fist practices are really brilliant! I have never seen this kind of Taoist Connotation before!” Liu Jingning murmured.

Bang!

Something exploded in the air.

The turbulent thunderclouds were torn up ruthlessly by the energy, and all of a sudden nine enormous golden swords appeared. Shortly after, 28 more followed, and the next minute, 64 more appeared, and soon 128 more followed again.

This all happened in just a few seconds.

Seeing this, Liu Jingning was so surprised that her face twisted up in confusion. “The three times heavenly tribulation, the six times heavenly tribulations, and now the four times one! How can these come out all together?”

“Great! I have been waiting for this moment for such a long time!” Xu Que laughed aloud and became very excited when seeing the mounting golden swords.

All the golden swords fell together into what looked like a pyramid upside down. While they were falling, the void around was torn apart, and the outside world could be seen from time to time.

“Crikey! Xu Que, don’t!” Liu Jingning shouted.

Xu Que had been in this situation before; at that time, he had managed to run away with the help of the Divine Tracking Emblem. This time, however, there were more than 200 golden swords.…

The Heavenly Tribulation this time seemed not a tribulation for a cultivator of the Infant Transformation Stage, but one for a cultivator of the Form Synthesis Stage.

Liu Jingning thought even cultivators of either the Form Synthesis Stage or the Void Training Stage would be destroyed in just a few seconds when facing so many golden swords. Although Xu Que managed to destroy one huge golden sword, now his fists seemed no longer to be working.

“Little Queque! Calm down! You can do this!” Liu Jingning shouted.

Right at this moment, Xu Que’s surroundings were filled with infinite heavenly energy.

Liu Jingning wanted to walk forward to stop Xu Que, but as soon as she stepped forward, she was terrified by the energy and her face turned pale. She realized that if she took one more step forward, she would be crushed to pieces by the energy.

“Don’t come near me!” Xu Que turned around and shouted, “It’s already too late!”

Hearing this, Liu Jingning got very frustrated and sad.

She thought Xu Que could make another legend this time, but when she saw his face, she realized that he was not going to survive this time.

Even a cultivator of the Form Synthesis Stage would not survive this, not to mention he, a cultivator of the Infant Transformation Stage! He is just a young man. Why on earth do the Heavens want to punish him like this? No! No! No! Little Queque, I will never let you die here!

Liu Jingning bit her lips and began to practice an incantation. The next minute, purple light appeared in his hands.

“Don’t come near me!” Xu Que shouted and smiled handsomely at Liu Jingning, “Don’t come near me! Please! All I want is to see you for the last time!”

“No.…” Liu Jingning was so sad that her entire body shrivelled up. She shook her head and tried so hard to stop her tears.

“Don’t cry! You don’t look beautiful if you cry.” Xu Que smiled. “Promise me, after I die, take my ashes with you wherever you go. When you are in danger, sprinkle some of my ashes, and I will protect you!”

Before he even finished these words, the golden swords fell down upon him. The light was so bright that Liu Jingning could no longer see Xu Que clearly.

Liu Jingning shook her head and shouted, “Xu Que, you can’t leave me like this! Do you hear me? Haven’t you got the Divine Tracking Emblem? Use it!”

Liu Jingning was about to cry….

The Holy Virgin of the Utopia Faction, who was called the Devil by others, had never cried before or cared so much about a man. Seeing Xu Que like this, her heart ached so much as if someone was cutting it with a knife. She was in deep, deep sorrow.

“No, I will not run away this time! This is my choice, and I will never regret it! Just as my Taoist Connotation says, the entire world should not contradict me; all the living creatures in the world should not disobey me; all the Buddhists who ever dare to get into my way should be killed! If I run away, I would break my own Taoist Connotation, and there is no need for me to have it and the iron stick. Tell me what should I deal with if I run away?” Xu Que’s voice was so loud that it was echoing in the air.

Hearing this, Liu Jingning suddenly realized what was going on.

The entire world should not contradict him? No wonder his Taoist Connotation is so powerful! No wonder the Heavenly Tribulation is so strong this time! Even so, I can’t let him die here!

Liu Jingning clenched her teeth and walked forward slowly in great pain. She had only taken one step, and she had already used up all her energy, and she could no longer take one more step. “Little Queque, you can’t die! If the entire world contradict you, I will always obey you; if all the living creatures could not understand you, I will always be the one to speak for you; if the Buddhist gets in your way, I will stand right behind you!”

“The only thing I want in return is your being alive.” Liu Jingning’s voice trembled, she never imagined that she would care about Xu Que’s life so much.

She had been staying by his side for the last two years and watching him getting stronger and stronger. She was very confident that this young man would shake up the world. However, she never thought Heaven would be this cruel to take away his life.

“Really?”

Liu Jingning heard Xu Que’s voice.

She was shocked and nodded.

“Great! I shall not die!”

The next minute, Xu Que jumped up. He waved his right fist as quickly as lightning. All of a sudden, seven shadows appeared in the air, and they all waved their right fists at the same time. In fact, the shadows were not Xu Que’s doppelgangers, and their appearance was simply due to Xu Que’s fast speed of waving his fist.

Ding! “The host has successfully activated the King of Tough-Acting Fist by consuming 7,000 Acting Tough Points!”

Bang!

The void collapsed.

“The King of Tough-Acting Fist with Seven Colors!” Xu Que shouted aloud.

All of a sudden, seven huge fists with different colors appeared in the collapsed void. Xu Que’s Taoist Connotation was surrounding the fists. All of a sudden, the seven fists began to head toward the approaching 200 golden swords.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The golden swords were crushed to pieces one after another.

The erupting energy created a fierce energy wave that was even more powerful than the waves in the Upflowing Sea. The surrounding mountains and rivers began to shake and the earth also started to tremble.

Liu Jingning was hit by the energy wave and knocked back more than ten steps. She tried everything she could to stand still afterward.

When she opened her eyes again, she found Xu Que standing in front of her, smiling. “See? I am still alive!”

…

“We all know that keeping promises is one of our virtues. I hope you can follow your words. From today on, you should never disobey me and speak for me!”

…

“I want.…”
