Chapter 375: Will You Obey Me Or Not?
"Heh, Golden Dog Collar?"
A sinister plan came to mind. Xu Que's lips curled up into a smirk.
He immediately exchanged for the Golden Dog Collar, spending 1,000 Acting Tough Points. Although the durability would decrease with time, Xu Que did not find the item expensive!
This was because this thing had the same effect as the Golden Circlet, which had been used to fool Sun Wu Kong, the Monkey King.
All he needed to do was chant a spell to control the size of the collar. This was no different from the Incantation of the Golden Circlet. This item was simply a treasure!
The only flaw was, the beast had to put it on willingly of its own accord, otherwise there would not be any effect...
"Boy, how is it? Are you going to trade with me or not? If you're not exchanging, this deity is going to eat this plant!" clamored Buttface as he sat on the ground, leaning against the wall with his legs crossed.
All those watching the scene were somewhat bemused.
Is that really a f*cking pet?
Why does it behave so haughtily?
It makes me feel like giving it a good thrashing...
Everyone thought for a while and felt that this dog was really too unique. But after a bit of pondering, they no longer felt confused or stunned by the dog's behaviour.
After all, there was a saying that the dog would take after its master! Xu Que was incredibly arrogant—his pet would of course behave just as arrogantly as him!
"So are you willing to trade or not? If you want to, shout 666!" Buttface continued to speak in a haughty tone.
"I'll trade, of course I will. You want the Iron Man suit right? Okay, no problem!"
Xu Que wore a smiling expression but he was sneering with contempt inside!
You act arrogant now, but you're going to cry later!
...
Swish!
Xu Que stored the Iron Man suit into his system inventory. At the same time, he pulled out the Golden Dog Collar that he had just obtained!
As he had purposely done all of this swiftly, everyone thought that the Iron Man suit had simply turned into a golden leather collar the moment he took it off.
That golden leather collar was carved with inscriptions and embedded with golden tangerines, looking very strange!
"Take it, wear it, and you can instantly become Iron Man!" Xu Que waved the collar in front of Buttface.
It was uncertain if Buttface had mistaken the collar to be the Iron Man suit or if the collar's irresistible effect against canine type beasts had taken effect, but Buttface looked at the collar greedily. His tongue hung out on one side of his now agape mouth and his face was full of excitement.
"Come, boy, throw it over," exclaimed Buttface in agitated excitement. "The plant will be given to you after this deity has tested it!"
Xu Que raised an eyebrow and stared at Buttface. "F*ck, if I give this to you first, it will be equivalent to throwing a meat-stuffed bun at a dog—one will never get back what has been given away. Just cut the crap, we'll hand over the items together. Hurry up and come over here now!"
"D*mn, this deity is not a dog but a noble wolf!" Buttface cursed. Ultimately he could not resist the temptation. He stood up and walked towards Xu Que like a human.
Xu Que narrowed his eyes and held the Golden Dog Collar tightly. He wore an expression of reluctance, as if he did not want to part with the collar.
Buttface saw that look of reluctance on Xu Que's face and immediately put on a complacent smile. "Heh, heh, boy, don't feel bad. By trading this plant for your suit, this deity is also suffering a loss!"
"Hmph, don't act like you're suffering losses when you're clearly at an advantage," snorted Xu Que coldly. "If this herb were not of use to me, I wouldn't be willing to trade for it with such a precious magical weapon!"
The group of cultivators witnessing this scene also felt heart-ache for Xu Que.
The prowess of the Iron Man suit was obvious to all. Xu Que had taken down so many puppets singlehandedly wearing that suit. It had also broken the restrictive spells in one strike. Everyone felt that it was no doubt a supreme magical weapon.
Now that this magical weapon was about to become the property of a dog, everyone felt that it was a great pity!
"Ah, what a waste of such a good item!"
"What a pity!"
"No choice, this dog is Young Hero Xu's pet after all. But Young Hero Xu really is spoiling and indulging his dog too much!"
"I agree! This dog is too arrogant. What a temper he has! Young Hero Xu shouldn't spoil it anymore!"
"Yes, if pets are disobedient, they need to be disciplined!"
The crowd shook their heads and whispered amongst themselves.
Buttface had fine hearing and heard everything that the cultivators had said. "Damn, all of you are pets, all of your families are pets!" Buttface flared up in anger.
"Buttface, why do you curse all the time?" frowned Xu Que. "Can't you be more civilised? Ever heard of the phrase, 'cursing out loud brings temporary joy, but the whole family will be burnt to death'?
Pfftt!
The crowd could not help but burst out laughing.
Cursing out loud brings temporary joy, but the whole family will be burnt to death?
Haha, this is too f*cking vicious!
Young Hero Xu is indeed talented!
...
But Buttface took a longer time to react and when he realised what Xu Que had meant, he replied curtly, "stop jabbering, hurry up, trade and go!"
As he spoke, he extended both paws, one containing the Genesis Metal Herb and the other empty and waiting for Xu Que to hand over his 'magical weapon'.
Xu Que displayed some unwillingness again, with acting abilities that could score full marks. He looked like a man who was full of heartache as he handed the collar to Buttface.
Buttface did not play any tricks either. Man and dog completed the exchange smoothly and successfully.
Shoosh!
Xu Que stored the Genesis Metal Herb in his system inventory without hesitation. He immediately made a desperate gesture, as if he was trying to snatch back the collar.
Buttface seemed to have anticipated such a move from Xu Que and immediately gave a cackle. "Hahaha, young man, you're too young. You want to take back the exchanged item? There's no way you can do so as this deity has already seen through you!"
He gazed intently at the Golden Dog Collar in his hands, getting more excited as he did so. "Hehehe, this deity has finally gotten hold of a treasure. Boy, you'll be shouting 666 soon!"
Instantaneously as he finished speaking, Buttface put the Golden Dog Collar right around his neck. It fit him perfectly.
"Hey boy, look! Does this deity look brilliantly mighty? This is really a nice treasure. Look at how fitting it is on me! It's like it was custom-made for this deity... Eh, boy, what are you laughing at? Why are you smiling in such a treacherous way?"
Buttface had been proudly showing off when he lifted his head and saw Xu Que's evil grin. Buttface's heart skipped at beat at that instant!
"Boy, what have you done?" asked a suspicious Buttface, trying to remove the Golden Dog Collar with his two paws.
That action made Buttface's expression turn to one of shock. "F*ck, boy, what did you do? This thing cannot be removed now!"
Buttface strained his energy to remove the leather collar but the collar did not move a single bit. It was as if the collar had grown into his neck. Nothing could make it move!
Now Xu Que could finally laugh without restraint. "Haha, Buttface, you're still too young! You dare to act arrogant in front of me? Try that again!"
The crowd present was confused. They had no idea what was happening.
Buttface had now realised that he had been fooled and flew into a rage!
"Bastard! This deity won't let you off!"
With a kick, Buttface made a leap towards Xu Que.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, do you think you can fight me?"
Xu Que smiled casually and took a step back. He made a hand sign and started to chant the tightening spell!
"Owwww!"
In that instant, Buttface, who was in mid-air, gave a sudden howl and fell abruptly onto the ground.
Buttface started to roll around on the ground and screamed repeatedly in great pain.
"Owww... boy, you... what are you doing? Stop! Ahh...ahh, I'm out of breath...ahh, young... young man, this deity is wrong, stop now! You... you're murdering a Mythical Beast! You'll suffer divine retribution!"
Buttface was in extreme pain. His eyes were big and bulging out of their sockets. His tongue dangled out of his mouth as well. He really did resemble a 3D version of the husky in the emoticon pack.
The tightening spell brought him extreme pain, but he had not suffered any physical injuries.
However, this was still enough to make Xu Que happy. "How is it? Will you obey me? Let me ask you again. Will you obey me?"
"Obey! I'll obey!" Buttface answered with difficulty.
"You'll really obey me?"
"Really! I'll obey you!"
"Shout 666 for me?"
"Oww, 6666666666..."
