Chapter 543 Set Off on the Road

For Shang Wu, Xu Que would definitely not let him stay!

Whether it was Situ Haitang or Shang Ling, Xu Que had already given face to Shang Wu when he was in Syracuse.

But later when he learned that Shang Wu went to seek revenge from overseas people, Xu Que had already made up his mind to kill, but he didn't show it, and only disgusted the other party in a tricky way.

Now in the imperial city, Shang Wu really brought people from overseas Gong family, Xu Que naturally took advantage of the situation and killed them all.

Of course, he was very magnanimous on the surface. He killed the Gong family in front of everyone, but let Shang Wu go. Many people believed it was true, so he could explain it to Situ Haitang.

But secretly, Xu Que dispatched Lei Huanshen early in the morning to snipe Shang Wu and destroy the corpse!

Everything was done airtight and perfect.

And, that night, Xu Que called all the guards and generals present and held a small meeting for them.

Xu Que told them very seriously that the matter of killing Gong's family must be kept secret. If anyone reveals a little bit of information, if the Gong family knows it, it will bring disaster to the entire Shuiyuan Kingdom.

Everyone can become a guard or a general because they are concerned about the Water Yuan Kingdom and are extremely loyal to the Water Emperor. Otherwise, when Liu Jingning seized power, they would not have preferred to die rather than surrender.

So after hearing Xu Que's words, everyone nodded and vowed that they would never spread any news.

In one night, all the imperial guards joined forces, destroyed the corpses of Gong Feng and others, and quickly restored the palace.

Xu Que returned to the bedroom, quickly closed the door, and took out five storage rings from the system space!

This is the storage ring on Gong Feng and others. After Xu Que killed them, the system will automatically pick it up.

In the past, Xu Que didn't even bother to look at the storage rings obtained after killing people, but this time they are from the Gong family from overseas, and one of them is the third young master of the Gong family. Xu Que felt it necessary to take a look, maybe there might be some what a good thing.

"Boy, what are you doing? Sneaky." At this moment, Er Gouzi sneaked up to him, with an expectant look on his face, thinking that Xu Que was going to mess up something again.

Xu Que rolled his eyes, took out five storage rings and said, "Since we are going overseas, we must first understand the background of these people!"

"Damn it, when did you get it from them? Why didn't I see it?" Er Gouzi was shocked. It was secretly observing the battle, but Xu Que cut through the mess from beginning to end. After suppressing and killing the opponent, there seems to be no act of touching the storage ring, but now he actually took out the opponent's five storage rings.

"If I let you see, how can I come out?" Xu Que sneered suddenly, will I tell you that I have a system to automatically pick it up?

Afterwards, he opened his soul, erased the power of the soul on the five storage rings, and penetrated into them.

However, the situation still disappointed Xu Que. Among the storage rings of the four old men, most of them were spirit stones and some low-level spells.

What Xu Que was most concerned about was the astral-level magic formula cast by the last two old men, but he couldn't find it in the ring. Obviously, that kind of formula was not something they were qualified to carry with them.

"It's a pity, except for the magic weapon, which is not bad, the others are rubbish."

Xu Que shook his head, and probed into Gong Feng's storage ring with his soul power.

Logically speaking, as the third young master of the Gong family, Gong Feng's storage ring would definitely be different.

But the moment Xu Que penetrated the soul force, a sudden sense of crisis made his spine shudder, and the pupils of his eyes suddenly dilated.

With a "whoosh", Xu Que quickly withdrew his soul power and threw the ring away.

But it was still one step too late, a red light suddenly shot out from the ring, pierced through the air with a whistling sound, and attacked Xu Que.

This red light can automatically follow Xu Que's soul power, and directly lock on the position between his brows, as fast as lightning.

Xu Que's face changed, and he secretly said that he was in trouble, and was about to call the system for help.

But at this critical moment, a dog paw suddenly appeared.

"boom!"

In a muffled sound,

The red light was stopped by the dog's paw, and instantly burst into strands of red dots, which fell with the wind and gradually faded away, but some of them still floated onto Xu Que's body and disappeared.

Xu Que didn't notice anything wrong, but he also looked at Er Gouzi in astonishment: "What's going on?"

"I don't know! When the deity saw the red dot, I subconsciously rushed to it, but I didn't expect it to shatter with a single paw. It seems nothing." Er Gouzi also said in a daze.

The corner of Xu Que's mouth twitched suddenly, and when he saw the red dot, he subconsciously rushed? Damn, these two dogs are really dogs!

"Huh, that's not right, I seem to remember it, this is a kind of mark!" Suddenly, Er Gouzi screamed again, looked at Xu Que and said, "Boy, look at your arm."

When Xu Que heard this, he immediately opened his sleeves, but his arms were white and clean, nothing at all.

"Huh? No, logically speaking, there should be a red dot! Well, it may be because it was smashed by the palm of the deity, and the effect of the mark was weakened!" Er Gouzi said to himself.

Xu Que rolled his eyes again: "What the hell is this?"

"It's just a mark. If you kill the third young master of the Gong family and go overseas, the Gong family will sense the appearance of this mark and know that you killed their third young master. But it's no big deal. The effect of the mark will be weakened." Now, as long as you don't get close to the Gong family, you shouldn't be able to sense it, and the imprint will disappear after a while!" Er Gouzi said calmly.

Xu Que couldn't help being surprised, he didn't expect the Gong family to have such a means.

However, since the red light was gone, Xu Que didn't care anymore, and continued to check Gong Feng's storage ring.

After seeing the results, he was immediately moved.

There are hundreds of top-grade spirit stones in it, there is even a book of star-level formulas, and several eight-star-level magic tools, this kind of background is comparable to any country in the Five Elements Mountain.

"Damn, you really deserve to be the young master. It seems that if you are short of money in the future, you can only find the children of these big families to rob!" Xu Que suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes.

He put the star formula into the storage space of the system, and after searching, he found that this formula was the star-level formula performed by the two old men, named "Void Annihilation Slash"!

As the name suggests, it is to use the power of the void to draw out the cracks in the void and suppress and kill the opponent.

However, there is a price for using this formula. When it is activated with true energy, the power is not great, but if it is at the cost of longevity, the power displayed is extremely terrifying.

"It's too tasteless!" Xu Que couldn't help shaking his head.

In his opinion, this technique is no different from a life-saving technique. If he hadn't been forced into a desperate situation, who would be willing to waste his lifespan in exchange for a desperate counterattack?

Others may need it, but Xu Que himself doesn't need it. He has the Escape Talisman in his hand, so he is not afraid of being cornered at all.

"Forget it, let's not practice yet!"

In the end, Xu Que temporarily gave up the idea of ​​practicing this formula, thinking it was too weak and unnecessary, but he didn't recycle it to the system, because it might come in handy sometime!

...

At dawn the next day, the palace returned to its former appearance, as if nothing had happened.

Xu Que also felt that things were almost over and it was time to go on the road.

He bid farewell to Zixuan, and still left two formations to protect the palace and the imperial city, then cleaned up and entered the empress' bedroom with Er Gouzi.

Zixuan came to see him off alone, and calmly said: "Xu Que, remember my sister's words, go overseas, and stop causing trouble!"

"To cause trouble is not something your sister would say. Are you worried about me?" Xu Que said with a smile.

Zixuan blushed immediately, and snorted: "Who is worried about you? I'm too happy if you want to leave, lest you stay here and continue to harm our Shuiyuan Kingdom!"

"Okay, okay, then I'm leaving! Er Gouzi, enter the formation!" Xu Que waved his hands with a smile, and stepped into the ancient teleportation formation with Er Gouzi.

The ancient teleportation array is just a huge circular spirit stone platform, with six grooves on the edge, connected by dense patterns, it looks like a complex electronic chip.

And those six grooves, if connected by lines, would be a standard regular hexagon.

Everything is very sophisticated, but Xu Que didn't study it too seriously, this kind of ancient teleportation array can't catch his eyes!

"The toll is really expensive. There are six grooves, so you have to put six top-quality spirit stones!" Xu Que muttered, took out six purple top-quality spirit stones, and put them into the grooves one by one.

"Damn, boy, do you have the face to say such a thing?" Er Gouzi looked contemptuous, he knew very well that Xu Que was already rich, and he also opened five storage rings from the Gong family last night, and got a lot of money. Hundreds of top grade spirit stones.

Xu Que ignored it and quickly put the spirit stone in.

"Boom—!"

In an instant, with a loud noise, the entire formation finally started to function...

...
