Ultimate Scheming System

Chapter 1135: Obstruction and Interception

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lan Hetu, Lan Xinyue, and the others were totally shocked. They walked through the Vital Ants and left the encirclement safely, following Xu Que. Their minds were totally blank because they couldn’t believe what they were experiencing. Xu Que had managed to intimidate more than 10,000 Vital Ants and three Queen Ants all by himself! They were shocked by the man who was walking in front of them. He was so powerful—his strength was unfathomable!

.....

The three Queen Ants were quite helpless. They had reached the Initial Stage of the Earth Celestial Stage, so they were not intimidated by Xu Que. Their king had asked them to do their best to capture Xu Que. But the problem was that all of them were intimidated when the Taiyi Heaven Book appeared. They had been totally subdued by that book. The loyalty that had been present for so many years in their bloodline was not to Xuanyuan Wanrong, but to the Taiyi Heaven Book!

Only the Taiyi Heaven Book could change the tribe’s bloodline. Therefore, when Xu Que used the Taiyi Heaven Book, his words became orders, which were almost as authoritative as the orders of Xuanyuan Wanrong! Thus, the three Queen Ants didn’t dare to move a muscle. Their will was not able to conquer the reverence in their bodies and bloodlines. So they could only let Xu Que go!

.....

During the next several days, Xu Que and his teammates encountered obstruction and interception many times. Most of these were just like the previous ones. A lot of Vital Ants were on patrol. Dozens of human cultivators tried to follow the Vital Ants secretly.

They knew they couldn’t rival Xu Que. Therefore, they decided to stay close to the Vital Ants so that they could send signals to inform Li Tianxun when Xu Que had been stopped by the Vital Ants. In this way, they could earn a lot of rewards.

It was a pity that Xu Que knew their tactics. So he would kill all human cultivators whenever he saw them to stop them from sending signals to call for reinforcements. And it was even easier to deal with the Vital Ants for he could just walk away after showing them the Taiyi Heaven Book!

However, the disadvantage of doing this was that Qian Guowan would hear about this sooner or later. Xu Que knew the Vital Ants and the Queen Ants were afraid of the Taiyi Heaven Book. But he was not sure whether Qian Guowan would also be influenced by it. After all, the strength gap between them was too large. Most of the time, strength was more of the deciding factor than the rules. So Xu Que used the Firestorm Wheels to increase his speed. When he sensed the aura of human cultivators, he would put away the Firestorm Wheels and slaughter them quietly

Finally, Xu Que and his teammates had arrived near the mountain where the Void Interface Spell was set up. He ran into Qian Yi’er, who was the cute Queen Ant and the daughter of Qian Guowan, at that place. She had come to that place alone, and she was surprised by Xu Que’s appearance. “Bad guy! What brings you here?”

“What’s wrong? Are you also going to capture me?” Xu Que said with a smile, for she was not a threat.

“Nonsense! I hope you will let me go!” Qian Yi’er rolled her eyes and said with embarrassment, “Do you realize you’re going in the wrong direction? My father and a lot of Vital Ants are just ahead of us. If you walk along this way, you will definitely run into them!”

“Oh? Then, what are you doing here? Did you come to tip me off?” Xu Que was amused by her words.

He knew Qian Guowan would try to stop him from reaching his destination. After all, they had encountered so many Queen Ants these last few days. They would definitely tell Qian Guowan what had happened. According to Xu Que’s travel, Qian Guowan could figure out where he was going easily.

Puff! “I am here to find my second sister! She said she had found a new mountain for me. So I will go back to the old nest to take some belongings. I didn’t expect to meet you here! What bad luck!” Qian Yi’er said, pouting with her little mouth.

“OK, OK, you can go now. Please don’t stand in my way!” Xu Que said with a smile as he let Qian Yi’er go.

Qian Yi’er was shocked by his reaction and said in disbelief, “Are you really going to go this way? I’m not lying to you. My father and his troops are over there!”

“It’s OK! They are coming toward us now!” Xu Que said as he looked at the sky behind Qian Yi’er.

This place had been tightly surrounded by numerous Queen Ants and Vital Ants led by Qian Guowan. It seemed they had made up their mind to take Xu Que. They had created a lot of noise, which startled the human cultivators. When Xu Que saw Qian Guowan and the Vital Ants, he also sensed the aura of Li Tianxun and many other cultivators not far away. Maybe they were also rushing toward this place at this moment.

“Heh! It seems the last combat is inevitable!” Xu Que shook his head with a smile. If it weren’t really necessary, he didn’t want to get involved in tough combat. Although he could always gain experience, the risks were still too high. He didn’t like to push the limits. A man who walks on a wire must be very experienced—a small mistake might result in death!

That was not the way Xu Que wanted to live. What he wanted was to become stronger and crush his enemies easily. However, the current situation had nothing to do with easy combat! This combat was going to be tougher than the one with Liu Hualong. He guessed that even a Six-color Fiery Lotus was not going to be able to win this combat for him.

“Xu Que, come back with me! Although you have the Taiyi Heaven Book, we only obey the orders of our Master!” Qian Guowan shouted as he looked at Xu Que. At this time, he was no longer as angry as before. After all, two months had passed, and he had calmed down from his fury. He had figured out that the Master didn’t want to kill Xu Que and had forgiven the mistakes made by the Vital Ants. The only reason was that Xu Que’s identity was really extraordinary. He was not a fraud but the real One Chosen by Heaven! It was highly possible that Xuanyuan Wanrong was annoyed by a misunderstanding between Xu Que and her. Therefore, Xu Que could still be deemed a master of the Vital Ants theoretically.

“Guowan, you’d better go back now! I don’t want to kill all of you. But if you really force me to do that, I don’t mind killing all of you! Believe me, I can do that!” Xu Que said with a calm smile.

His words stunned Qian Guowan a bit. He wouldn’t have been scared if Xu Que had shouted at him. However, Xu Que’s calm reaction, which contradicted the powerful Terrifying Spiritual Qi gushing out from his body, really got on Qian Guowan’s nerves. Qian Guowan became speechless. His intuition told him that Xu Que was really able to kill all of them. Although this idea was quite absurd, he still chose to believe it. The reason was quite simple! Because Xu Que had placed a knife in front of the throat of Qian Yi’er at this moment.

“Damn! Let my daughter go!” Qian Guowan yelled angrily.

Qian Yi’er was his dearest daughter, who was more important than anything. If Xu Que threatened the entire Vital Ants tribe with Qian Yi’er, Qian Guowan really didn’t know what to do.

“I can let her go, but you should trade her with Li Tianxun’s head!” Xu Que said with a smile as he looked somewhere else. He could sense the aura of Li Tianxun. He was sure Qian Guowan could also sense it. He tried to tell Qian Guowan that he would never let Qian Yi’er go if Li Tianxun was not killed.

“OK! I’ll kill him now. Just don’t hurt her!” Without any hesitation, Qian Guowan dashed toward Li Tianxun.

Xu Que had the Taiyi Heaven Book and also Qian Yi’er as a hostage, which left Qian Guowan no choice. So he decided to kill Li Tianxun immediately before Li Tianxun had time to escape.

Boom!

Qian Guowan jumped up into the sky, which created a deafening explosion in the Void.

Li Tianxun also rushed out from the mountain where he was hiding. Then he escaped, leaving the human cultivators behind. He was never going to be able to defeat Qian Guowan. And, this time, Qian Guowan was determined to kill him, which made Li Tianxun choke with anger. This was caused by Xu Que’s words! The more Li Tianxun thought about it, the madder he got. So he shouted angrily as he was running away, “Xu Que, I’ll kill you!”
