“Uh...seniors!”
“Ha, ha, ha, awesome, say it again!”
“...Seniors!” The guard’s lips twitched helplessly. He endured it and addressed them again. He had no choice. Rules are rules, and they dared not break them.
“Ha, ha, ha, Buttface, what’s going on? I didn’t lead us the wrong way, did I? I told you earlier, it’s the right choice to come to the Earth Continent. Why must we suffer in the Heaven Continent?” The dirty old man burst into laughter and made a show of himself in front of the dog.
The dog gritted his teeth at once and replied angrily, “Duan Jiude, aren’t you embarrassed to say that? If it weren’t for you, would Your Holiness be hunted down for three years?”
“Tut, tut, tut, don’t mention the past! What’s more, if it weren’t for the fact that we were hunted down and happened to see the Heavenly Tripod List, we would never know that Xu Que actually came to the World of Near Celestials and was in the Earth Continent!”
“Bah, the Heavenly Tripod List is nonsense. Nobody in the Heaven Continent was paying attention to the Heavenly Tripod List. The Starry Sky List is the trend! If it hadn’t been for that group of old cunning *ssholes hunting us down, Your Holiness would have dominated the Starry Sky List!”
“Ha, ha!”
“F*ck, what are you laughing at!”
“The old man is laughing at himself, what has it got to do with you?”
“Sinful brat! How dare you disrespect your grandfather? Today, Your Holiness will teach you a lesson! Watch my attack!”
Suddenly, the man and the dog started wrestling and hammered each other like unreasonable women in the marketplace, making a scene.
Several guards were startled and confused. Fortunately, they weren’t completely dumbfounded. From the conversation between Buttface and Duan Jiude, they heard a familiar name—Xu Que!

Xu Que’s name was no trivial matter. He was the Faction Leader of the Exploding Heavens Faction. Nowadays, in the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm, everyone was aware of his name.
Buttface and Duan Jiude heard him and immediately stopped. Four eyes instantly looked at the guard, and then they looked at each other.
Faction Leader Xu Que?
These two were sneaky and shifty. From the guard’s tone, they could actually sniff a trace of awe and veneration. Buttface immediately straightened out his chest and said, “Of course, Your Holiness is the Vice Faction Leader of the Exploding Heavens Faction. How can I possibly not know Xu Que?”
Duan Jiude also waved his hand, stroked his beard, and laughed like a supreme master. “The old man here is the Elder of the Exploding Heavens Faction. Naturally, I know Xu Que. Where is he now?”
Vice Faction Leader of the Heavenly Explosion Faction, Buttface?
Elder of the Heavenly Explosion Faction, Duan Jiude?
Several guards stared at them in disbelief.
“Why are you in a daze? Tell us quickly, where is Xu Que? Shouldn’t you take us to him now?” Buttface urged with an arrogant face.
They could determine that Xu Que had a great influence in the Earth Continent. Otherwise the guards wouldn’t be acting so deferential at the mention of Xu Que. That was partly the reason why they dared to borrow his power to frighten and bully the guards.
“Report...reporting back to the seniors, Faction Leader Xu Que...” A guard collected himself. He was filled with deep veneration and then he made an ambiguous statement, “He...might have died in battle!”
“What?” Buttface and Duan Jiude heard and their expressions changed instantly.
“What happened, when did he die in battle?”
“Who killed him? Is his enemy still around?”
Howl! “Your Holiness is suddenly not feeling well. I have to return to the Heaven Continent to take a rest before coming here again!”
“Uh, the old man will escort you back!”
The man and the dog were in the midst of their conversation as they turned around and wanted to return through the Passageway of Heaven and Earth.
“Excuse me, please wait a minute!” A guard quickly called out to them. He had to tell them that the road to the Heaven Continent had been sealed before the two finally stopped. Afterward, the guard told them about the famous achievements of the Exploding Heavens Faction. Only then did Buttface and Duan Jiude understand the whole affair.
It had only been a year from the emergence of the Exploding Heavens Faction to it making a name for itself in the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm. But when they heard about the last scene of the battle which coincided with the disappearance of Xu Que after being severely wounded, Buttface and Duan Jiude heaved a sigh of relief.
“You can rest assured, with Your Holiness’s understanding of that dude, he didn’t die!”
“Even the gods can’t take away the dude’s life, saying that he died at the hands of an ace in the Golden Celestial Stage, who would believe it?”
Buttface and Duan Jiude looked disdainful.
“But...but he has disappeared for two years. The Exploding Heavens Faction has vanished for two years too. Hence, the outside world has started hearing rumors that he’s already dead!” The guard explained.
“Disappeared for two years?” Buttface and Duan Jiude heard his explanation, and their expressions froze and they stared at each other. Disappeared for two years, then the outcome might be questionable!
“Sirs, why don’t both of you go to the Palace of Heaven and Earth to take a rest? We’ll inform the Litian Academy and other forces about your identities!” Just then, a guard said respectfully. Previously, the guard had told them of the voluntary affiliation of the Litian Academy and other forces with the Exploding Heavens Faction.
When Buttface heard him, he immediately carried himself with confidence and nodded proudly, “That’s good, since the Litian Academy and other forces are affiliated to the Exploding Heavens Faction, then Your Holiness, the Vice Faction Leader, should meet them!”
“As an Elder of the Exploding Heavens Faction, I should also meet them!” Duan Jiude nodded in response.
“Sure, here please!” Several guards immediately did a fist and palm salute and led the way for Duan Jiude and Buttface.
Suddenly, Buttface paused, and he looked at the guard and said, “Oh yes, help Your Holiness inform the rest, tell the world that when Xu Que was alive, he was a respectable man. As for theExploding Heavens Faction, the Vice Faction Leader will temporarily manage for the present!”

Buttface looked down upon him, “What do you know, if Your Holiness isn’t in power, who can mobilize the power to find that dude?”
“I can. Don’t forget the skill we inherited when we were in the Heaven Continent!” Duan Jiude laughed and patted his chest.
Buttface’s eyes lit up at once. “I almost forgot, you old beggar has inherited the Heavenly Telepathy Divine Magic Art. That’s right, quickly figure out where the dude is!”
“All right!” Duan Jiude laughed. He retreated into a corner and took out an ancient-looking tortoise shell! The tortoise shell was covered with dense patterns, and it exuded a kind of ancient, simple, and mysterious Tao Aura. It was obviously extraordinary at first glance.
Several guards were shocked, but they dared not ask more questions. They all stood aside and looked on silently.
“Hey! Ha!” Just then, Duan Jiude shouted. He released Celestial Core Power in his hand, transformed it into a glorious ray, and enveloped the tortoise shell. Subsequently, the whole turtle shell rose; it rolled and swayed violently in the air.
With the shaking of the tortoise shell, there was a clear and crisp sound of jingling inside. It seemed that several copper coins were colliding violently.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Duan Jiude put his two fingers together and drew a Mark; the Mark bolted toward the tortoise shell! The tortoise shell and the Mark collided; it immediately froze in the air and stopped shaking. Following that, several copper coins dropped out from it and formed a strange pattern in the air.
“So what now, did you feel anything?” Buttface rushed forward, looked at the pattern, and questioned Duan Jiude.
Duan Jiude closed his eyes, he frowned, and his Soul Strength was extremely concentrated. He seemed to be sensing something so he didn’t immediately respond to Buttface.
Whoosh!
After a few seconds, his eyes suddenly opened wide, he was surprised, and he exclaimed, “This boy isn’t in the Earth Continent!”
“What? What do you mean?” Buttface was startled.
Duan Jiude grinned bitterly, “I knew it, that dude is blessed, and he’ll survive any great disaster. He’s not dead yet, but he’s not in the Earth Continent.”
“D*mn it, where is he? Don’t tell me he’s in the Heaven Continent?” Buttface asked.
Duan Jiude shook his head and pointed to the pattern of the copper coins in the air. “He’s in the Xuanhuang Continent! But the hexagram is a bit strange, I can’t fathom it. But I can feel that this boy has had luck in love, it’s a relationship from before!”
