Chapter 256: We Have To Combine Efforts!
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Everyone around were at a loss for words!
A single excavator was already so powerful and it doesn’t even require the use of core strength to operate in order to demolish walls and dig through concrete and stone!
And now there are ten excavators?
He was really ensuring that the Fire Nation is doomed!
The Fire Emperor along with his officials were stumped and their pupils dilated in fear.
They had originally thought that with the protective spells in place, even with an excavator, Xu Que wouldn’t be able to dig his way through, for he would take a long time.
Nobody had expected him to reveal another nine excavators with just a flip of his hands!
Fuck me good!
Ten excavators!
That’s not even funny anymore!
"Quick! All of you, go and help with the completion of the teleportation device!" The Fire Emperor shouted out anxiously.
He was truly shakened at this point. After all, this spell wall was his last line of defense and his only remaining bargaining chip. If the teleportation wasn’t completed in time and Xu Que was allowed to force his way in, everything would’ve been for naught.
The few officials and ministers finally regained their senses as they acknowledged the order given before anxiously running towards the building. All of them started shifting the inscripted boulders.
The place behind the building started becoming noisy as everyone, apart from the Fire Emperor, ran to help speed up the process.
Xu Que wasn’t idling outside as well. He took out a conical horn and started shouting instructions for everyone to hop aboard an excavator!
Although he managed to rent ten excavators, he was only able to operate one at a time despite his powers.
In order to fully utilize all these excavators, he definitely needed help from the crowd. Hence, he started issuing orders to the cultivators around. After all, the more help, the better!
"Quick, quick, quick! This is a rare opportunity to receive training on how to operate an excavator! Are you going to come or not?"
"Little brother, stop looking at the excavator with lust. Based on the look in your eyes, I can tell that your lifelong dream and ambition is to operate an excavator. Quickly get on it. When I finally kill the Fire Emperor, I shall ordain you as a Deputy Digger!"
"Yo, my fellow two brothers, I’ve noticed your innate talents and skills and I’m impressed. You are definitely a once in a lifetime digger. I can see it in your bones that you were born for this reason. Today, the Act Tough King is going to pass you the skill of operating an excavator."
"Yes, yes, yes. Sit on it, step on the accelerator and stop laughing like an idiot! Maintain your coolness and swag. The person operating the excavator has to emit a cool look. Do you know how to look cool? Watch me… Ai, forget it, you don’t have my looks. Start operating it!"
"Yo, not bad, little brother. Operating an excavator is in your blood. I can see it in your eyes and I can see it on your face. You’re meant for greater things! Although I’ve revealed your destiny, great adversity still awaits us. You’ve been selected by fate. Even if I have to risk my life, I shall fully impart the skills of using an excavator fully to you!"
"Yes, that’s the way. Come on, follow my right and left hands, right, left, right, left, all together now!"
"What’s the secret to being a good excavator operator? That’s right, you have to be quick in your actions and you have to be cool!"
"Ai, ai, ai… Who’s that over there? Are you crazy? Why have you taken off your pants? Put it back on, now!"
Xu Que was extremely busy as he chose nine people randomly and started showing them how to operate the excavator. As he shouted out instructions, he allowed them to direct the excavator towards the walls of the Sacred Grounds.
The entire scene was extremely busy as the people moved hastily, while others watched close by, extremely impressed by how Xu Que was conducting himself.
That kid’s mouth is really amazing, huh?
His words are like a string of pearls shooting out from his mouth. He doesn’t even need to think. He’s truly unlike anyone I’ve seen before!
The Water Empress sat beside Xu Que on the excavator as she looked at him, unsure of whether to laugh or cry.
She shook her head gently.
This kid is such an interesting person!
But in all honesty, sitting atop this excavator is way too fun!
It doesn't require a single drop of spiritual energy. All that was required was hands and legs to move accordingly and this Godly Weapon could generate immense strength.
The arms of the excavator punched with the ferocity of a thousand cultivators. And… it doesn't even need any spells to be conjured. Even if a kid sat in the excavator, he would be able to control it effortlessly. Thus, the Water Empress was extremely intrigued by this.
The Fire Emperor was extremely startled as he shouted out menacingly, "Whoever dares to operate the excavators, I shall expunge your entire family and your next nine generations as well!"
Xu Que didn’t hesitate as he shouted out in response, "Don’t be afraid and operate it without fear. With me, Xu Que, around, and the backing of my Heavenly Explosion Faction, nobody would dare to touch you! Of course, if anyone wishes to flee now, I shall dig out eighteen generations of your ancestor’s spirits and make them strip naked and dance in front of me!"
Several cultivators were rather shocked by the Fire Emperor’s declaration and they were about to get off the machine.
However, as soon as they heard Xu Que’s retort, they started operating the excavator once again and drove its arms into the groundl.
Damn it! Compared to annihilating nine generations of a person’s family, it was obvious that getting eighteen generations of his family out to dance naked was a much scarier alternative!
Watching this situation, the Fire Emperor sank further into depression.
Even when his life and safety was in jeopardy, it was obvious that his threats were uneffective.
Just a single Xu Que from Heavenly Explosion Faction was enough to make life so tough for this Fire Emperor. Should the entire sect comes down, the Fire Emperor would not only have a hard time retaining his throne. He would most probably lose his life! What discussion was there about annihilating a person’s nine generations?
Clearly, Xu Que was the best in such underhanded and devious threats. Everyone around were smart as well, hence they took Xu Que’s side without hesitation.
"Boom doom doom…"
At this point, all nine excavators were moving in unison and its arms moved rapidly, sinking into the ground.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Although there were many layers of powerful spells on the wall, there wasn’t any spell on the ground beneath!
With nine excavators drilling and digging deep into the ground, cracks started to form as shattered debris and rocks were thrown into the air.
Soon after, Xu Que shouted out another instruction as the arms of the excavator sank deep into the ground and dug out a large mound of soil, raising it up.
The crowd behind watched on in shock. With such speed, the entire wall would be dug out of the ground in mere minutes!"
"Little miss, don’t be lazy and get to work. We have to combine efforts in order to operate this machine properly! There’s no other fear in this world except for the fear that this wall won’t come down!" Xu Que spoke to the Water Empress who was watching the other excavators in amazement and shook his head.
The crowd’s lips twitched. This kid… is so bold. He even dares to instruct the Water Empress.
Who was the Water Empress?
She was the 95th monarch and an Infant Transformation elite cultivator.
Just by moving her lips and waving her hands, thousands of small sects and nations could turn to dust.
And she was the only Empress within the five nations. Her beauty was always alluded to that of a goddess. Many elite and powerful cultivators had been in love with her and yet didn’t dare to show an ounce of affection for her.
Yet Xu Que could refer to such a powerful being as "little miss" and even dared to accuse the Water Empress of being lazy? He actually asked her to get to work? He’s truly sick of living!
However, the Water Empress pursed her lips, trying her best to suppress a laughter. Her demeanor was calm and assertive as she raised her hands to the lever and started operating the excavator.
The crowd watched on in shock.
Even Xu Que was stumped. How could this woman be so perfect in every action?
Indeed, she has poise and dignity and is unlike anyone I ever laid eyes on. Even doing something as mundane as operating an excavator made her look so perfect. She’s truly a great match for me!
