Zhan Dili?
The woman in white heard his explanation, and she immediately frowned, and fuming with anger, she yelled coldly, “Zhan Gaoli, are you joking or treating me like a fool? Do you think I’d believe such a stupid joke?”
“Uh, it’s not, I’m really not Zhan Gaoli!” Xu Que shrugged helplessly.
“Humph, I could identify you even from your ashes, how dare you quibble! You were so arrogant when you killed my Senior. Now, you dare not even admit your sin?” The woman in white was furious. But she didn’t get any closer. It seemed that she was either afraid of the strength of’Zhan Gaoli or she was stalling for time.
“Uh!” Xu Que sighed and shook his head. “If you’re an enemy of Zhan Gaoli, then I can tell you that I’ve already gotten revenge for you. Zhan Gaoli is worse than dead now, and he’ll die soon. I’m really not Zhan Gaoli!”
“Humph, you’re full of nonsense, only a shameless person like you would say such preposterous words!” The woman in white yelled, following it up by thrusting a sharp sword that swept through the air!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several swift and forceful cold lights from the sword were shooting toward Xu Que in an instant.
“Tut, tut, tut!”
Xu Que immediately shook his head. He condensed a resplendent Celestial Core Power on his arm and swept it forward all of a sudden!
Clack!
Clack!
Clack!
Several strikes from the sword fell on his arm, but her attacks were fended off with Xu Que’s solid and sturdy arm.
The woman in white was startled. “This…how is that possible? Zhan Gaoli, in merely a few years, you’ve improved your body to this Cultivation Stage?” She was astounded! Zhan Gaoli didn’t have such a strong body in the past, but now he could catch her Sword Qi with his bare hands!
“I said before, I’m not Zhan Gaoli!” Xu Que shook his head and immediately stepped on a blazing lightning!
Whoosh!
In an instant, his figure turned into an unfathomable shadow. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the woman in white. He had taken out his sword and held it against the snowy-white neck of the woman in white! The whole process, only lasted for several seconds, and it had stupefied the woman in white. Feeling the ice-cold blade on her neck, she finally stopped her attacks. The sense of death was enveloping her; she was desperate and terrified.
“It’s impossible for you to have become so powerful in just a few years…,” the woman in white exclaimed, but then she stopped abruptly! She felt that it was indeed impossible. There wasn’t such a mysterious way of cultivation in the world that could exponentially increase a person’s strength in just a few years!
“Heh, now do you believe me? If Zhan Gaoli had my strength, do you think he could talk sense into you?”
Just then, Xu Que gave a faint smile. Following which there was a swoosh and the sharp sword against her neck suddenly disappeared. She couldn’t even catch a glimpse of Xu Que retracting his sword; he was that swift! In that moment, the woman in white finally believed half of his explanation.
On one hand, she felt that Zhan Gaoli couldn’t become so powerful suddenly, and on the other hand, to her surprise, she didn’t die! If that man had been Zhan Gaoli and had such a formidable strength, he would definitely have killed her. It was impossible for the real Zhan Gaoli to waste so much time talking to her.
“Miss, in fact there’s no harm in telling you, I’m from the Exploding Heavens Faction. Zhan Gaoli has been taken care of by me. Now I’ve transformed into his appearance because I want to play with the Dingtian Academy and the Equipment Refining Sect. If any of your help is coming, you’d better warn them not to mess with me, because next time, I may not have the patience to explain so much to any of you!”
Just then, Xu Que smiled faintly. He explained in a very light mood but with an imposing aura; he left no room for doubt.
When the woman in white heard him, her expression changed dramatically again and she exclaimed, “You…you’re from the Exploding Heavens Faction?”
“That’s right!” Xu Que truly laughed this time. He was proud of himself.
He enjoyed seeing the faces of astonishment when they heard the three words, “Exploding Heavens Faction”!
“But…but how can this be possible? Is there such an authentic way to change an appearance? To be honest, if you weren’t so powerful, I wouldn’t believe that you weren’t Zhan Gaoli. You had the same presence and even manners as him!” The woman in white shook her head, she was feeling uncertain!
“Ha, ha!” Xu Que smiled again. “The tricks of the Exploding Heavens Faction aren’t comparable to the insignificant skills outside! All right, I have something to do, and I’m not going to blabber with you any longer. You can wait in the market, and, in ten days, you’ll surely hear about the tragic end of Zhan Gaoli!”
At last, Xu Que waved his hand and bolted away with lightning underneath his feet. The woman in white looked at him departing and didn’t try to catch up with him at all. She really believed that Xu Que wasn’t Zhan Gaoli. If he was from the Exploding Heavens Faction, then it was highly likely for him to achieve such an amazing transformation that nobody could differentiate between the real and the fake! After all, the Exploding Heavens Faction had a mysterious omnipotence. Even the Equipment Refining Sect couldn’t take them down!
Whoosh!
Just then, a few voices could be heard from behind her. Several masked women in black clothes landed next to the woman in white. After scanning the surroundings, they looked at the woman in white in astonishment and asked, “Junior, where is he?”
“We found the wrong person! He’s not Zhan Gaoli!” The woman in white shook her head.
“What?” Several masked women in black were instantly shocked. One of them took off her veil. She had an exquisite face, and even the woman in white was inferior to her. If Xu Que had been here, he would surely recognize this person, because she was the granddaughter of Qin Sanli from the Litian Academy, the No. 10 on the Human List, Qin Susu!
“Junior, that man is clearly Zhan Gaoli. How could we possibly have seen a wrong one?” Qin Susu was surprised, and she sized up the woman in white, “Junior, you were not deceived by him, were you?”
“Senior Qin, am I that silly?” The woman in white laughed bitterly.
“Then what’s going on?” A woman in black frowned and asked, “We found out that he had entered the inn, and when he came out, you were tailing him all the way. How could we have identified him wrongly?”
“Yes!” The woman in white nodded her head and said with a mixed expression, “That man is very powerful. I could only launch three attacks on him but I was subdued by him in just one attack. And he didn’t kill me. He emphasized several times that he wasn’t Zhan Gaoli, but merely transformed into his appearance. Besides, he said that he was from the Exploding Heavens Faction.”
“What? He was from the Exploding Heavens Faction?” Several of them immediately stared with their eyes wide opened.
Qin Susu was also dumbfounded, and she quickly asked, “Junior, where is that fellow?”
“He’s gone. It looks like he’s going to make trouble with the Dingtian Academy and the Equipment Refining Sect!” While the woman in white was talking about that, she paused slightly and she looked uncertain as she continued, “But before he left, he said that the real Zhan Gaoli had been taken care of by him. He said that we should wait in the market and in ten days there would be good news!”
“Ten days?”
Several of them looked at each other instantly, then nodded and said, “All right, it’s only ten days, let’s wait and see. If he is really from the Exploding Heavens Faction then he mustn’t be lying. I’d like to see what happened to Zhan Gaoli!”
Finally, they left.
“Tut, I wonder if that silly boy is here. I would like to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson!” Qin Susu stood on the spot and murmured. She put on her mask again and departed with the others.
However, they didn’t expect that they wouldn’t have to wait for ten days. It was only three days later that revolting news was spread in the market; it alarmed everyone!
