A chilly air instantly swept Xu Que with a swoosh without any warning.

Xuanyuan Wanrong fumed inside. “This guy is too wicked. We had agreed on three requests, yet his first one is to make me accept 10 more.”

Even an ordinary person would get angry with Xu Que, let alone Xuanyuan Wanrong. “Do you take me for a genie?”

Xu Que replied calmly to her, “Hey, hey, don’t get angry. I was just joking, really. You don’t have any sense of humor. If you ever have a child in the future, don’t you think you’ll scare him acting like that?”

He was forced to calm her because, even though he wasn’t afraid of her, her parents’ souls in the Firestorm Wheels wanted to kill him again.

It was fortunate that Xuanyuan Wanrong didn’t get angry this time and just ignored Xu Que’s nonsense. She said simply, “If you still haven’t come up with any requests, let me know later when you think of them. I’ve already promised, and I will honor my word. But, if you make that request again, I will pay no heed to you.”

At this moment, she stopped transmitting her voice, and it reverberated throughout the altar.

Buttface jumped in fright and wore a tense look, but soon after his expression became solemn as he glared at Xu Que.

“As a matter of course, this type of request is excessive, even if it is from you.” With an understanding look, Xu Que nodded in response to Xuanyuan Wanrong.

Upon seeing this, Buttface chimed in. “Brother Que, what you have requested is really out of line.”

“F*ck!” thought Xu Que.

“Is it any of your goddamn business?” Xu Que glared and thought, “This fool is trying to stir up trouble again. Is what I have done that out of the question? You just heard what Xuanyuan Wanrong said, yet you contend it’s not possible?”

With righteous loyalty, Buttface shouted, “Humph! I’ve stood here and listened for a while, and I can’t stand listening to this any further. Even if I must starve to death today, die in the streets, or jump from this spot, I will not put up with the excessive requests you keep demanding from Fairy Xuanyuan.”

“F*ck!”

Xu Que widened his eyes and held himself back from beating Buttface.

“Darn it!” Xu Que thought. “He’s making use of everything to his gains. Xuanyuan Wanrong just transmitted her voice, and this fool didn’t hear a thing. It’s only when her voice reverberated atop the altar that this fool heard several crucial keywords. And then he quickly seized the chance to fawn all over her. How extraordinary!”

“Fairy Xuanyuan, just accept two of my requests. That’s right: You didn’t hear me wrong. I have only two requests, and I will help you get out of here.” Buttface raised his paw and tried to rob Xu Que of business.

“F*ck! Buttface, are you tired of living? Are you trying to steal my business?” Xu Que opened his eyes wide and angrily glared at him.

“Brother Que, it isn’t appropriate of you to say this. I just can’t bear observing this. Fairy Xuanyuan is so outstanding, so how can you raise excessive demands and make her accept three requests? That is too outrageous!” Buttface wore a wicked smile and solemnly looked at Xu Que. He resembled the complacent and treacherous court eunuch.

Xu Que whipped out the Act Tough King’s Purple Gold Rod from his crotch without uttering another word. He sneered and said, “Buttface, did you hear about the set of rod techniques that fell from the sky? People called them the Thirsty-Six Dog-Hitting Rod Techniques.”

“Huh? Que... Brother Que, wait! Please forgive my impudence.” Buttface promptly cowered and imitated Xu Que’s words as he earnestly apologized.

Xu Que was both annoyed and amused by this. When he was about to speak, Xuanyuan Wanrong’s ice-cold voice reverberated again from atop the altar. “If you have come here just to quarrel, then I don’t mind sending both of you down.”

Faint anger was discernable from her tone.

“It’s obvious that the former outstanding Heaven Palace Sect’s building head had her own pride. Xu Que and Buttface created a disturbance and act as if they are alone here. They treated me like thin air!”

Begging for forgiveness, Buttface shouted at the top of his lungs, “Fairy Xuanyuan, I have made a mistake, and I’m guilty. I’m inhuman. Please forgive me.” He begged as if he had committed a hideous crime.

Xu Que wore a disgusted and disdainful look as he cast a glance at Buttface and shook his head.

Soon after, he looked at Xuanyuan Wanrong and said with a smile, “Don’t get anxious... We still have a lot of time. In addition, my first request is quite simple. I hope that you will leave the Celestial Burial Valley promptly after I save you, no matter what happens later, and you shouldn’t take a step into it before I come out... How about it?”

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Wanrong’s eyes snapped open, and their iciness glared at Xu Que from within the coffin. They were chilling.

Even if she didn’t speak, one could still understand her gaze’s implication, but she made sure. “Do you dare to order me?”

“How about it? Didn’t you say that you’d keep your promise? Is this how you do that? Is this how you should treat a Prince Charming?” Xu Que sneered coldly and questioned her mockingly.

Anger spread across Xuanyuan Wanrong’s face. Even if she had a better temper, it would still be difficult for her to bear looking at Xu Que’s wretched expression.

From within the ice coffin, Xuanyuan Wanrong’s chest started heaving up and down as she restrained her anger with great difficulty. She soon took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “I can’t accept this request. I can guess what you want to do, but it seems to me that you won’t be able to devour this land’s fortune. You are just seeking death, and your life is connected to me.”

“So?” Xu Que asked with a smile.

“This is why I won’t leave the Celestial Burial Valley, but I also won’t meddle in your affair. But, if your life is in danger, I will carry you out,” Xuanyuan Wanrong replied calmly.

“Okay, it’s a deal.” Xu Que clapped in agreement.

Standing next to him, Buttface looked dumbstruck and transmitted his voice to Xu Que. “Brother Que, you are awesome. You tricked her and made her propose to protect you on her own accord, didn’t you?”

Xu Que glared at him and said, “Nonsense, do you think I’m that kind of person?”

In fact, he really had wanted to trick Xuanyuan Wanrong. If he had proposed what he really wanted, someone with Xuanyuan Wanrong’s bad temper and harsh character would likely turn “not meddling” and “saving him” into two requests, and he would suffer a great loss.

This was why he deliberately acted like he did not want Xuanyuan Wanrong there and wanted to take risks alone. Xuanyuan Wanrong was afraid that she would be implicated in his death, which was why she had proposed on her own accord what he wanted.

This was a great fortune, as he would face the attack of a large amount of Celestial Core Power. He was afraid that his body wouldn’t be able to bear it, and this would be too risky without a guardian.

Because Xuanyuan Wanrong had already agreed, her character surely wouldn’t allow someone like her to renege on the deal, and she wouldn’t covet taking his Celestial Core Power.

The current outcome was exactly what Xu Que wanted.

“You should start working,” Xuanyuan Wanrong’s apathetic voice echoed out. It sounded commanding, with no way of knowing whether or not she spoke like that on purpose.

Xu Que was displeased by this but helpless.

He couldn’t do anything against this because his life was connected to her, and he also carried her parents’ souls with him.

But, as the proverb said, “A real man doesn’t fight with womenfolk.”

“In addition, I’m not a narrow-minded person. So, why would I bother with this trifle?”

“Fine! As a matter of fact, releasing you isn’t difficult, but I hope that you will cooperate with me. You must read several incantations along with me.”

Xu Que looked at Xuanyuan Wanrong within the coffin and spoke in a deep voice.

Xuanyuan Wanrong muttered to herself for a short while before she said calmly, “Okay.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Que took the horse stance as if he would do something great. He started waving his hands in the air at will and released several wisps of Celestial Core Power, which landed on the magic symbols on the altar. ????????????????????????????. c????????

Soon after, he looked at Xuanyuan Wanrong and shouted, “Hurry up, it’s now! Read them loudly along with me: Husband, Ganbatte, husband, I love you. Husband. Yamete, Ikke Ikke.”
