Ultimate Scheming System

Soon, Xu Que went back to the palace along with Su Ling’er and Su Xiao Qi.

Seeing Xu Que, the guards instantly showed their respect to him. After all, they still remembered the scene of Xu Que killing the Fire Emperor.

Xu Que smiled at the guards and entered a bedroom together with Su Ling’er and Su Xiao Qi.

“I have set up a powerful magic array here in the palace. In the future, both the Demonic Beast and the Sea Tribe won’t be able to get into the palace easily. You can live here with the rest of the members of the Mysterious Clan.”

“How about you? Are you going to live here together with us?” Su Ling’er asked.

Xu Que smiled. “I’m going to leave here soon. I have to go to overseas to seek revenge.”

“What?” Su Ling’er and Su Xiao Qi exclaimed together.

“You’re going to leave?” Su Xiao Qi said unhappily.

Xu Que smiled. “So you don’t want me to leave?”

“No, I’m just saying you have to leave some Chocolate Medicinal Items for us.

“…” Xu Que was speechless, and the smile on his face froze.

She only wants the Chocolate Medicinal Items. I thought she wanted me to stay here.

Su Ling’er was silent for a while, then she asked gently, “When will you come back?”

“I’m not sure. But when I come back again, I’ll take both of you to the other side of the sea. As the Sea Tribe has said, there isn’t much Spiritual Qi here, thus it would take much longer for you to cultivate. The world on the other side of the sea is the best place for you.” Xu Que shook his head. In fact, he himself had no idea when he would come back.

Xu Que wasn’t sure if he would still be able to act tough when he arrived there, since there were many powerful men on the other side of the sea. But he was determined that he would try everything he could to act tough, since in his view, a life without acting tough was only the life of a person who didn’t want to do anything nor move.

“Do you want me to go with you?” Su Ling’er thought for a while and asked. She was afraid that Xu Que would feel lonely when he arrived there.

“You have to be here. The Mysterious Clan needs you here. I promise when I come back, I will take you two to a bigger world where you can really enhance yourselves!” Xu Que said confidently.

In fact, Xu Que had originally meant to ask Su Ling’er to go overseas with him, but he had already given up the idea of taking Su Ling’er to the other side of the sea.

When he was in the Great Change Sect, he had asked Su Yun Lan if she would like to go overseas with him. However, since Sun Yun Lan had promised her father and grandfather she would establish the Great Change Sect as influential, she could not leave.

The cultivators on the other side of the sea were much much powerful than he thought. If Xu Que took Su Ling’er and Su Xiao Qi there, he might not be able to keep them safe.

Besides, he meant to find Duan Jiu De to get the two herbs and teach a lesson to the Jiang Family, as well as find out what had happened between them and the Water Empress. He wanted to figure out why people said the Water Empress was misfortunate.

At last, Su Ling’er promised Xu Que that she would stay there to protect the Mysterious Clan.

As for Su Xiao Qi, she was thinking of nothing but chocolate. “Xu Que, please make some Medicinal Items now, hurry up! I am feeling rather sleepy.”

“Xiao Qi, don’t talk to Xu Que in this way.” Su Ling’er gently patted Su Xiao Qi on the head and turned to Xu Que. “It’s quite late now, so you should go to sleep. I’ll see you off on the day you leave.”

“Yes, you are right. I should go to sleep now. But…” Xu Que nodded.

“But?” Su Ling’er was in a daze.

Xu Que smiled. “I hate sleeping alone in the dark…”

Hearing this, Su Ling’er quickly blushed.

While Su Xiao Qi mocked them, “Xu Que, you are such a coward.”

“I am not a coward, I am simply afraid of being alone.” Xu Que shook his head and began to sing, “I am mostly afraid when people suddenly stop talking; I am mostly afraid of friends’ departures; I am mostly afraid of the melancholy moment when all the memories begin to flash in my mind, it is just very sad and my heart aches…

“You know what, I am a man with lots of experience. Once I’m alone, all those bad memories rise up and my heart aches, so I hate sleeping alone at night,” Xu Que defended himself.

Su Ling’er was blushing heavily. She never believed Xu Que’s defense, since she knew exactly what Xu Que really meant.

However, Su Xiao Qi bought his words and began to comfort Xu Que. “Xu Que, don’t be afraid. If you treat me with some Medicinal Items, I can be your company tonight.”

“What?!” Xu Que was surprised.

“Xiao Qi, are you insane? Do you have any idea what you’re saying?!” Su Ling’er became rather serious and criticized her.

“Quite right! You have no idea what you’re saying!” Xu Que nodded.

If I treated you some Medicinal Items, you would accompany me at night? I don’t believe it. What if you break your promise after I give you some Medicinal Items?

“What have I done wrong?” Su Xiao Qi felt rather confused.

Su Ling’er was still blushing and didn’t say anything. She just stared at Xu Que.

See what you’ve done, are you satisfied now?

Xu Que put on a rather serious face and pretended not to have seen Su Ling’er.

Obviously, Xu Que was much more shameless than Su Ling’er and would never blush whenever he told any dirty jokes.

Su Ling’er couldn’t do anything to punish Xu Que. She just randomly said something and sent Su Xiao Qi to bed.

Su Xiao Qi then went to bed rather unhappily, while Xu Que still sat in her chair.

Since Su Xiao Qi and Su Ling’er were sharing a room, Su Ling’er didn’t dare to play any dirty games with Xu Que.

Xu Que smiled. “Ling’er, it’s quite late now. If I go back to my own room, I will most certainly disturb the others. Why not just stay here? Don’t worry, I’ll just sleep on the floor and not cause any trouble.”

“What?” Su Ling’er was shocked.

She knew what Xu Que was like, so she didn’t believe a word he said.

Sleeping on the floor? Judging from your previous performance, I am quite sure that you would secretly climb into my bed at midnight!

Thinking this, Su Ling’er was feeling rather anxious.

Yes, she did indeed like Xu Que, but she wasn’t prepared to have sex with him, especially with Su Xiao Qi present.

If it weren’t for the fact that Xu Que was going to leave in just a few days, she would definitely refuse his request. But now, she wasn’t sure if she really wanted to refuse him or not.

Suddenly, Su Ling’er raised her head. “How… how about some other time?”

What? Some other time?

Xu Que could not believe his ears!

She is being too direct, and I am rather embarrassed by this.
