Drifting Sand world.

The great desert.

At dawn, the sandstorms began to ravage the surroundings once again.

Gu Qing Shan stood still, silently thinking of a way to escape this world.

He only had a single day left, so there wasn’t much time.

But right now, he couldn’t even use his status as a member of the Justice Iron Fist Club.

Because the other side had a lot of leads to follow, including his appearance as well as the official job he took with a temporary party.

I killed the black-clothed man.

So the authorities might have already sent out personnel to search and surround both Little Dusk and myself.

Since the black market is most likely under the Holy Church of Death’s control, going back there is the same as commiting suicide.

——–but without going there, I wouldn’t be able to get on a flying transit to leave Drifting Sand world.

What a headache.

After a lot of thinking, he suddenly recalled something that happened just now.

Little Dusk turned into a card so that I could carry her around.

Yeah, I’m now an Envoy of Condemnation as well, can I also turn into a card?

As Gu Qing Shan had such a thought, the grey border of runes manifested around himself.

The grey border of runes just silently hovered in the air, apparently waiting for his order.

Gu Qing Shan had a realization.

——I can turn into a card at will.

And he quickly tried.

Gu Qing Shan disappeared from the desert, replaced by a grey card.

Inside the grey card, Gu Qing Shan was excitedly checking his surroundings.

He found that he was currently inside a narrow area, surrounded by a thick grey mist, but as he reached his hand out, he felt a solid wall.

Little Dusk’s card was enough to put her own bedroom inside with a king-sized bed, why is the inside of my card just a tiny space like this?

While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, some information arrived from the grey mist into his mind.

[You need to increase the grade of your card to expand the space inside your card]

——so that’s why.

Having come to an understanding, Gu Qing Shan pressed his hand against the border of the grey runes and looked outside.

He found that he was able to observe the desert from inside the card.

How miraculous.

Gu Qing Shan silently praised.

With a single thought, the grey runes around him disappeared as he came out of the card and returned to the desert.

After some thinking, Gu Qing Shan had formed a plan.

“Shannu”

“I’m here, gongzi”

Shannu appeared from the void of space behind him.

“I have a little plan” Gu Qing Shan said.

“Please tell me what I need to do” Shannu replied.

“First, use [Mystery of All Beings Equal] to turn into a human”

“Yes”

Not too long after that, a streak of light flew in from the horizon, landing near the entrance of the town.

A blue-dressed girl appeared.

She seemed to be a female cultivator with a clean background, as the book and guards at the entrance didn’t stop her.

After going through their test, she successfully entered the town.

As she didn’t have any money, the female cultivator went straight towards the work center, formed a temporary party, and accepted a small job.

This was one of the simpler jobs for temporary parties, quite similar to the terrain surveying job that Gu Qing Shan accepted before.

The job’s objective was to travel to a particular part of the desert and collect a few unique rocks.

The rewards were 40 coins each.

——-#1 coins to be exact, which depicted a type of drifter void monster that liked to eat trash within the space vortex.

This was the lowest valued coin in the Strife Zones.

Although there were 40 pieces, that amount was only enough to eat a single meal in this town.

Even so, for novices and newcomers, this was a job that they had to complete.

As soon as they went out of town, the female cultivator expressed how she didn’t have much time and hoped that the other two in her party could take her hand so that they would move together.

Following that, she moved like she was teleporting, again and again, quickly bringing the entire party of 3 to their destination after just a few blinks.

Obviously, both of her companions were shocked.

“I can’t do much else, but I have an ability to travel through space” the female cultivator explained.

The other two quickly understood.

That was true, if someone had this impressive movement ability with similarly excellent fighting prowess, they would’ve already entered the black market rather than staying in town to do these kinds of menial jobs.

Jobs for temporary parties were extremely simple, the only hard thing was getting people to actually do them.

So the party of three quickly finished the job.

Just like before, the female cultivator brought the two other members and blinked through space a few times to return.

The entire process took a total of 10 minutes.

The party turned their jobs in, said their farewells, and quickly went their own ways.

Everyone here only formed a temporary team in order to complete the first job and gain the qualification to enter a permanent party.

The two quickly went to find a team that they wanted to be in.

The blue-dressed girl stopped at the black market’s work center with her meager work income and looked for the party registration desk.

“I want to form a permanent party” the female cultivator spoke.

“To form a temporary party, you need at least three people, as well as a fee of 20 #1 coins, gather your party members here and I’ll register for you” the receptionist told her.

The female cultivator nodded, bowed, and left.

She came to a secluded corner of the town and took out a card from inside her sleeve.

“Gongzi, we need three people to form a party” she worriedly reported.

Inside the card, Gu Qing Shan spoke: “I heard it as well, let’s go, we’ll register together”

He jumped out from the card and activated [Mystery of All Beings Equal].

Gu Qing Shan quickly took Wang Cheng’s appearance.

Shannu looked at him and spoke: “There’s still only two of us, we need one more”

“Just leave everything to me” Gu Qing Shan said.

The two of them returned to the work center.

“We want to form a party” Gu Qing Shan said.

The receptionist looked at the two of them and curtly answered: “20 #1 coins, at least 3 people are needed to form a party”

Gu Qing Shan signaled Shannu to give him the money.

He sneakily gave all 40 coins to the receptionist and smiled: “Our party member will arrive soon, please help us register first”

The receptionist accepted the money and slightly loosened his eyebrows.

Without saying anything else, he began to go through the registration process for them.

The procedures were quite simple so it didn’t take much time, and then there was only one last step.

This part required each party member to record their appearance as well as voice.

Shannu placed her hand on a square rock and spoke: “Shannu, cultivator, Bai Hua party member”

Then followed by Gu Qing Shan.

He also put his hand on the spoke: “Wang Cheng, Devil Summoner, Bai Hua party member”

The receptionist’s attitude was much better now and asked: “What about the last one of you?”

Shannu glanced at Gu Qing Shan.

“Please wait a moment, I’ll go call him” Gu Qing Shan smiled apologetically.

He quickly dashed out.

A few minutes later, an imposing-looking man came in.

The man quickly came up and apologized to the receptionist: “Sorry I’m late”

The receptionist didn’t say much and gestured to the stone with his chin.

The man placed his hand on the rock and spoke: “Qi Yan, Elemental cultivator, Bai Hua party member”

The receptionist took the rock back and gave Shannu a simple medal.

On behalf of the money he got, he added one more thing:

“From now on, your party will become official, I suggest you start with simple jobs, slowly get to know this world and learn how to truly make it big in this place”

“Thank you”

Shannu and Qi Yan both clasped their fists in thanks.

They came out of the work center and looked through the jobs on the wall.

“Gongzi, look” Shannu called him.

They both looked where she was pointing.

Sure enough, at the very top of the job board was a wanted poster with Gu Qing Shan’s picture.

And not just his, but one of Little Dusk as well.

These were probably pictures taken when the two of them took the job from before.

Below their wanted posters were the huge sum of rewards being offered for their bounty.

People all around squeezed themselves as close to the job board as possible to look at the wanted poster.

“The Holy Church of Death is officially issuing a job like this, Drifting Sand world is going to get rowdy soon”

Someone clicked their tongue.

“Forget about it, there’s no way we’re getting anywhere with that job, though the big guys in the black market might be able to” another person commented.

Most people silently nodded in agreement.

But they still couldn’t help themselves staring at the generous rewards being offered on the bounty.

Gu Qing Shan silently watched this.

So I did become wanted by the Holy Church of Death huh, let’s be a bit more careful around the Strife Zones from now on.

“Gongzi, what now?” Shannu asked.

“Of course we’re going to take some jobs, earn money and get into the black market as soon as we can. Let’s hurry”

Gu Qing Shan glanced across the entire job board before stopping at a certain one.

“We’re taking that job” he told Shannu.

Shannu looked where he was pointing.

The job description was written there: [The black market public guard issued a crucial request: Collect all information related to the bounty target of the Holy Church of Death, once your information has been verified, the following rewards will be given out]

[Black market entry qualification]

[#10 coins: 1000 pieces]

[Depending on how crucial the information provided is, the rewards provided will increase]

[Attention: If fraudulent conducts are confirmed, immediate execution!]

Reading the job description Shannu froze.

She sent her voice: “Gongzi, you know that they want to catch you, right? You’re really going to report information about yourself to them?”

Gu Qing Shan nodded: “Yup, after all, we know more about this than anyone else, the authenticity can be 100% guaranteed”
