Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

Rolensia and the other two didn’t have much of a reaction when Gu Nan brought this up. Cliff, the Sky God, even gave it some serious thought. "It’s possible as long as Sylvia doesn’t mind."

The three of them merely received a message from Sylvia and came to act as witnesses for the new member. They didn’t actually know what had transpired earlier.

Only Sylvia stared at Gu Nan blankly, seemingly stunned by his shamelessness.

Daoist Lingyang on the side noticed her expression and asked curiously, "What was your previous commission?"

Sylvia rolled her eyes as she pointed at Gu Nan. "To keep an eye on him."

"Haha… Technically, it’s possible…” The old Daoist said with a forced smile as his expression turned a bit awkward.

"It’s fine." Cliff still looked deadpan; his expression didn’t even change. This God of the Sky was also considered one of the powerful gods. It’s just that his personality really was strange. Rumor has it that nobody had ever seen him make a different expression before.

The God of Luxuriant Blossoms didn’t even say anything and just silently watched Gu Nan.

In the first place, the three of them had never taken the commission seriously. It was unlikely for any normal god to be stumped by a mere commission.

After all, conflicts between gods were in the minority. The majority of commissions came from requests by people below the gods—such as when Sylvia received Lu Xinhuan's request for help.

If she hadn’t run into an anomaly like Gu Nan, a normal Legend Rank expert probably would’ve been captured by her shadows and would only be released once the matter was over.

To put it bluntly, the so-called commission process was simply a chance for the official members to properly observe the new member and determine his origin and strength.

Gu Nan was quite a famous junior in the Myriad Heavens Universe, so there wasn’t much need for a background check.

So Gu Nan shrugged and asked, "So does this count as me joining?"

Rolensia nodded. "Yes. Sylvia will tell you about some of the rules. When you return to that side, don’t forget to visit…"

"Lord Xue Ren of Extreme Sword Heaven," Daoist Lingyang supplied with a smile from the side.

"Right," Rolensia followed up, clearly not too familiar with the division of planes within the Myriad Heavens Universe. After she said this, she had no intention of lingering and left in a hurry.

Gu Nan also knew about Extreme Sword Heaven. Star Ruler Xue Ren rose abruptly in the last tens of thousands of years. He wasn’t considered a veteran Star Ruler, but his strength was not to be underestimated.

Xue Ren was called "Sword Saint"—and this was the address among Star Rulers, so the weight of that spoke for itself.

Many in the Myriad Heavens Universe believed that if the Thirteen Heavens eventually became the Fourteen Heavens, then that newest Heaven must be Xue Ren.

With Xue Ren's status, Gu Nan figured he was probably one of the people in charge of the Heaven-God Alliance on the Myriad Heavens Universe’s side.

After Rolensia left, Cliff didn’t stay for long either and said to Gu Nan with a stiff expression, "Welcome, newcomer. If you have the chance, you can visit my Divine Kingdom as a guest."

Although his tone and expression didn’t sound welcoming at all, Gu Nan knew this was already a very sincere invitation.

Daoist Lingyang’s invitation was a bit more simple, "This humble Daoist will return to the Myriad Heavens Universe in a few days. Is Daoist Friend interested in accompanying this one?"

"I still have something to do," Gu Nan refused without even thinking about it, then pointed to himself. "Right, the commission."

At this moment, he remembered it again.

……

Blood had already flowed into a river in the Four Seasons Mountain Valley when Gu Nan returned to the Undead Kingdom. Multiple forces had started fighting, almost triggering a chaotic war in the entire Capital of Blood.

However, everything went as Gu Nan expected. The Raymond clan, which was lurking in the dark, split their troops two ways. One group went to the Capital of Blood to slaughter everyone in Qinghe Pavilion, while the other group made their way to the Four Seasons Mountain Valley.

Since they received the information one step later, of course they arrived later than Lu Xinhuan's group, so again, they didn’t hesitate to ambush and kill the people from Qinghe Pavilion.

However, their ambush just happened to undo the first seal. A burst of power shot up to the sky, exposing both sides at once and attracting the entire city’s attention.

This time, it was the vampires' turn to be out of luck.

The powerhouses from all sides who were attracted by the outburst didn't care what the hell Qinghe Pavilion was. Instead, they were certain that the seal must’ve been opened by the Raymond clan, since the vampires had the greatest advantage here.

Qinghe Pavilion finally got a chance to catch their breath, but Lu Xinhuan didn’t forget the goal of "three vampire hearts."

In the ensuing chaos, the vampires that people normally couldn’t even catch a trace of suddenly seemed to be everywhere.

"The item sealed here is… Cain’s Left Hand?" Even when Sylvia stood in the distant sky overlooking the chaotic battleground, she could still accurately discern the aura inside the seal.

Cain's Left Hand—this vampire clan divine weapon was so famous that even the Goddess of Shadows had heard of it. Legend has it that it was a weapon capable of slaying gods.

"Mm," Gu Nan casually responded, then glanced at her in confusion. "The other three already left. Why are you still following me?"

Sylvia tilted her head and answered, "I have to explain important matters about the organization."

Of course Gu Nan didn’t believe such an excuse, but since she wanted to follow, he wouldn’t care about it too much either. The main thing was that he really wasn't familiar with this Goddess of Shadows, or else it’d be very easy to guess the other party’s thoughts.

The Goddess of Shadows was truly too weak. In his previous life’s game, nobody had time to study this kind of god that players could kill in one hit and who also didn’t have too many good missions on her.

Of course it would never occur to Gu Nan that Sylvia was here because of the law he controlled—she wanted to see him fight using shadows.

After letting her imagination run wild, she decided that the path Gu Nan was taking was the true Shadow Arcana, and the reason she didn’t make much progress all these years was probably because she took the wrong path.

A red light flashed across the ground while the two were talking, and a blood-red coffin slowly emerged, floating in midair.

There was no lid on the coffin, revealing the internal decoration and item—that was an old man dressed in standard knight attire. The strange thing was that half of his left palm had been sliced off.

"Grab his left hand!" Countless shouts came from the surroundings. Everyone stopped at the same time, their gazes fixed on the coffin in midair.

The first to make a move was Lu Xinhuan.

While it was true that she had to use nonviolent business dealings against people, there was no such rule when fighting over treasures!

Lu Xinhuan, who had interacted with Star Rulers for years, revealed astonishing fighting strength at this moment.

She stood alone in front of the coffin, surrounded by a strange field. Any person or attack that neared her would be folded, distorted, and weakened until it was nearly nothing.

Her law wasn’t purely business-related, yet it was also related to it.

The reason Lu Xinhuan dared to make the first move was because of her strength that surpassed most people, as well as…

"Everyone, stop!" Lu Xinhuan grabbed that half of a palm. "Lady Mara, I can give you this divine weapon immediately as long as you agree to one request of mine."

After saying this, she announced to the surroundings: "Everyone, this vampire clan divine weapon must be wielded by a vampire to have the maximum effect. It’s useless even if any of you acquire it. As long as you stop here for today, all losses will be borne by Qinghe Pavilion."

Lu Xinhuan's declaration made the surrounding people fall silent for a while.

These kinds of empty promises couldn’t go so far as to win anyone’s trust, but it could make many people take a wait-and-see approach.

On the other hand, Lady Mara was even more ecstatic and said loudly, "We can agree to any request as long as Your Excellency is willing to return the Ancestor's Staff!"

Lu Xinhuan sighed in relief. Instead of bothering with supporting a clan leader candidate, it was obviously easier to directly exchange Cain's Left Hand for Zhong Die.

However, she suddenly felt the sunlight behind her dim at this moment, as if someone had appeared behind her.

Lu Xinhuan immediately reacted. Her hand flashed with a green light as she crushed a talisman. An unimaginably majestic power gushed out, shielding her whole body.

This power didn’t belong to the mortal world. It was clearly a self-defense treasure bestowed by Zhong Qinghe.

Lu Xinhuan looked back. As expected, she saw Gu Nan’s figure. Her heart sank slightly. ‘To think not even that powerhouse from the organization could stop him…’

However, to her surprise, the other party didn’t seem to have any intention of snatching her prize. Instead, he turned around and headed straight for the coffin.

He was followed by a woman in a long black dress who seemed equally puzzled by his move and asked the question on Lu Xinhuan's mind, "You don’t want Cain’s Left Hand anymore?"

Gu Nan came up to the coffin and ripped off the old man’s entire left arm with a casual tug.

"Now this is a left hand." Gu Nan waved the thick arm. "The one in her hand is just a palm at best.
