Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1297: Xiao Die’s decision

In the small house, the two people continued to chat.

“Then both Barry and Kitty are currently staying in the Temporal Oasis, using the method of [Order] to become stronger while continuously moving forward into the future?” Xiao Die asked.

“That’s right” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“You came back by yourself to the point when the Eternal Abyss and Wraith realm began their war and entered Void City in order to make some arrangements in the Wraith realm?” Xiao Die asked again.

“That’s right, I don’t really need to hide this fact from you, because everything had already happened, the Temporal Oasis would continue to travel through the River and Time, and no one would be able to change that” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Xiao Die appeared worried: “Tsk, so those guys from Wraith realm wanted to go against the entire 900 million World Layers, no wonder Barry and Kitty would fight them... but the Wraith realm is terribly powerful, this is going to be very troublesome”

Gu Qing Shan nodded.

He was very relaxed in front of Xiao Die, not telling her a single lie.

——she had even given me a brand to save my life and had in fact saved my life once, so there wasn’t any reason to hide these matters from her.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Die turned her gaze to Gu Qing Shan and asked: “You’ve matured a lot faster than I anticipated, but if you want to fight the Wraith realm... I forgot to ask; what kind of identity do you have to remain in Void City?”

“I’m working as a Hitman in the Hitman Guild” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Xiao Die scoffed: “Hmph, so it was the Hitman Guild, this is an organization with a bad reputation”

Gu Qing Shan was speechless.

——your Ominous Demon Tower isn’t exactly known as a brimming beacon of virtue either.

Seemingly understood his thoughts, Xiao Die said: “It’s a shame that you’re a pure human, otherwise I’d have you become a teacher’s assistant at our Ominous Demon Tower, this way, the Wraith realm humans wouldn’t dare to touch you”

Gu Qing Shan immediately asked: “How strong are you right now?”

“It’s not really significant, I have to teach every day and rear my child, so I’m only slightly stronger than you currently are” Xiao Die replied.

Gu Qing Shan was speechless again.

“——but that isn’t related to strength, it’s purely because the Wraith realm is afraid of offending us” Xiao Die continued.

Gu Qing Shan was even more curious, asking: “Why?”

“Our tower master is the renowned Lord of Devouring, while our vice master just happens to own a few Wraith realm fragments” Xiao Die replied.

Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised, muttering: “Then... this a threat to them?”

“That’s right, if the Wraith realm humans ever do any misconducts, our tower master would devour those fragments. Even if he one day spit them back out from the goodness of his heart, the fragments would still be tainted with eternal contamination that cannot be cleaned” Xiao Die explained.

“Then, what would happen if the Wraith realm were to fuse with those fragments?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Xiao Die triumphantly explained: “The entire Wraith realm will smell like shit, plagues and diseases would gradually manifest all over the world, only gradually subsiding after around 100 million years”

Gu Qing Shan was speechless again.

This form of restraints is...

Very wondrous, extremely moving.

If this is to be seen from the Wraith realm’s perspective——-

A world filled with the smell of shit declaring that they wanted to conquer the entire Samsara, wouldn’t that be a stretch?

Who’s going to listen to them?

No wonder that old man at the bar immediately accepted his fault right when he saw Xiao Die.

Gu Qing Shan placed his hand on his chest and sensed the brand.

Speaking of which, I’ve never truly died.

Ejecting my soul from my body uses a fake state of death.

When I traveled to the Age of Old, Lin had always accompanied me with the three coins, ready to save me at any moment.

The reason I had been able to survive until the very end in so many battles was due to the threat of death stimulating all of my potential.

This is the only true way for a Combatant to quickly improve themselves.

“Xiao Die, I have a favor to ask you”

“What is it?”

“Please take this brand away” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“Huh? You don’t want such a great thing with you?” Xiao Die appeared surprised.

“That’s right. It has been fine so far since I didn’t know what it does, but now that I know... whenever I fight with other people from now on, I’d always be reminded that I still have a life remaining, feeling unmotivated in combat” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Xiao Die tilted her head looking at him and smiled: “I didn’t think you’d be so hard-boiled”

She waved her hand in the air, summoning a lightly glowing butterfly between her fingers.

“Go, tell Hundred Legs that my family member has arrived so I want to give that item to them, ask him if it’s ok”

The butterfly flapped its wings, quickly fading into the void of space.

A few moments later.

A piece of wood appeared in front of Xiao Die, speaking in a hearty deep voice:

「 Your family member? Is it your man? 」

“No” Xiao Die replied.

The voice relaxed a bit and began speaking gently: 「 If they’re your family member, you can give them a certificate, that’s no issue. On the other hand, Xiao Die, I love you, my love for you is like stars in the sky——- 」

“Scram” Xiao Die cut the voice off: “I want you to stay however far away a star is from me”

She slapped the piece of wood, sending it away from sight.

“Alright, it seems I can give you one of the certificates”

Xiao Die waved her hand to produce a scroll as if nothing had happened, placed it on the table, and pushed it to Gu Qing Shan: “I’ll take away the brand, but you need to take this”

“What is this?” Gu Qing Shan asked with cold sweat on his back.

He looked at the scroll, only to see a line of text scribbled using void language:

[Ominous Demon Tower certificate of troublemaking]

A small line of text was written below to explain it

[The owner of his certificate is a student or family member of the Ominous Demon Tower, if they cause any issues at your esteemed places, hopefully, all sides can show them care and warm encouragement]

Reading this certificate, Gu Qing Shan slowly realized what it was.

These words are just asking to be beaten up.

But if these words portray their real attitude, there was a very clear issue here.

What kind of power would they have at their disposal to have the gall to ask the side they’re making trouble at to show warm encouragement after the fact?

“...Wait a minute, does your vice master... does he own a fragment of every organization’s worlds?” he asked.

“Very sharp” Xiao Die praised.

“But some worlds are complete, no such thing as a fragment should exist” Gu Qing Shan wondered.

“We would also secretly steal a few fragments from complete worlds from their origins” Xiao Die replied.

“The power of the Ominous Demon Tower shouldn’t only be at this level, just eating world fragments and doing ‘that’ shouldn’t be enough to completely suppress everyone” Gu Qing Shan seriously stated.

Xiao Die sat up straight and sternly replied: “Of course, we’re all top-level demons within the space vortex, each one used to be an existence that could terrorize an entire zone of the Boundless Void, but many people are already old, they’ve basically all had children, so they joined together at Void City to form a fradul—— to form the Ominous Demon Tower”

“Not fighting anymore?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“You know how age is, it mellows people out, no longer causing trouble and making grudges everywhere. While there are no Apocalypses, we just do some business and make sure we live better” Xiao Die replied.

She pressed her hand against Gu Qing Shan’s chest, took out a rune brand, and stowed it inside her sleeves.

“I’ve taken back the brand. I’ll be giving this to my son, later on, this way when he goes out to the space vortex for his practical class, I won’t feel as worried as I usually do”

Gu Qing Shan’s eyes flickered a bit.

Lines of text were being displayed on the War God UI:

[You’ve lost your brand, as well as one chance to resurrect after your death]

Gu Qing Shan silently examined himself and muttered: “Hm, yes, this is how it should feel...”

Xiao Die stared at him for a while, then muttered:

“Finally, I didn’t judge a person incorrectly——- as for how you’re trying to go against the Wraith realm, I can tell you that simply entering their world itself is an extremely tough thing to do”

“I know that” Gu Qing Shan replied, “I’m preparing to get promoted to Unsolvable rank in the Hitman Guild and accept a job to assassinate someone in the Wraith realm”

Xiao Die shook her head: “That’s not possible. The Hitman Guild wouldn’t be able to go through the Wraith realm’s Causality Law barriers. The most they’d be able to infiltrate it for an hour, after which they’d be forcefully transported away”

She sighed emotionally: “The Wraith realm is an extremely anti-outsider world, I’m sure they’re hiding some sort of terrible secret that they’re forbidding anyone from outside to infiltrate their turf”

Gu Qing Shan was stunned.

Only one hour?

With only that much time, other than accomplishing the hit, I wouldn’t be able to do anything.

Do I really have to come up with another solution...?

Xiao Die stood up, paced around the room for a bit, then suddenly sat down across from Gu Qing Shan again, asking him seriously:

“What kind of thing are you preparing to do in the Wraith realm?”

“To get rid of them once and for all” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Xiao Die stayed silent for a while, then waved her hand to create a sound-proof barrier in the room.

She seemed to have made her decision and said:

“Both Barry and Kitty are my benefactors, and you’re a good fellow as well. Listen, I have a way for you to infiltrate the Wraith realm, but you will need to personally work hard for it; at least, you need to reach the minimum prerequisites”

Gu Qing Shan was delighted and asked: “What’s the way? And what do I have to do?”

Xiao Die looked at him and replied: “You’re a sword cultivator and a Hitman, as well as an expert in cooking and many other abilities, I remember seeing you change your identities a lot during your time at the Suspended world”

“I did” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Xiao Die explained: “I will give you one month. You will need to reach the rank of Titled Hitman within a month’s time——- that is the minimum prerequisite”

“One month?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Xiao Die replied: “That’s right, only if you can reach this prerequisite would my method be remotely possible, and I’ll do my best to help you at that time”

Gu Qing Shan answered her sternly: “Alright, I’ll definitely achieve it”
