“What are you going to do?” Lin asked .
“Let’s deal with the Hitman Guild issue first before anything else” Gu Qing Shan said .
“Like the plan?” Lin asked .
“Yes, like the plan” Gu Qing Shan replied .
Lin sighed and told him: “You—- I really don’t know what I should say to you”
“This Ye Fei Li identity might still be useful later on, so I don’t want to give up on it yet” Gu Qing Shan explained .
——–after all, when this identity had a certain level of influence, it would enable Zhang Ying Hao to quickly find him .
“Then go” Lin said .
“Hm”
Gu Qing Shan used [Ground Shrink] and vanished from the hotel, appearing at the gate of the Hitman Guild several dozen miles away .
Worlds were being destroyed one after another, and the resulting shockwaves began to affect Seaside World .
Quite a few Professionists noticed this .
And chaos ensued .
The bounty hunter Guild, the slave market, and the trading port were all under attack .
5 minutes earlier, a resounding explosion could be heard not too far away .
The auction house had fallen, the crowd was rushing in to steal anything and everything of value .
——–the Hitman Guild was a relatively dangerous establishment, so no one had tried to mess with it for now .
But once the chaos started to spread, someone would definitely notice that the only person left inside the Hitman Guild was a single girl .
All of the Hitman Guild’s best people lost their lives in the Fire Mountain world .
Gu Qing Shan showed up at the front gate of the Hitman Guild .
He knocked on the door .
“Thank God, you’re finally here!”
The girl opened the door and sighed in relief .
This Ye Fei Li person was the only one who could protect her while she accomplished the task that the Guild assigned her .
She was responsible for moving all of the Guild’s wealth and intelligence from this world .
“Of course, I’m a member of the Hitman Guild after all” Gu Qing Shan smiled and replied .
At this point, a Professionist went out from the chaotic crowd a bit further away and hesitantly looked towards Gu Qing Shan’s location .
“Oi, hitman, you’re working today as well?” he loudly called out .
Gu Qing Shan ignored him .
The girl clenched her teeth: “You need to teach them a lesson, otherwise, if more of them flock here it would be trouble”
“Is that so?” Gu Qing Shan asked .
While they were talking, several other Professionists had already stepped out .
They tried to incite the crowd behind them: “The Hitman Guild’s rewards are always very high, everyone—–”
Gu Qing Shan turned around and coldly glanced at the group of people .
In a flash, the entire group of inciting people vanished from this world .
This bizarre scene caused the rowdy crowd to go silent .
One breath’s worth of time later .
Severed body parts suddenly appeared, scattered all over the ground .
Blood soaked the ground .
——none of them saw how Gu Qing Shan did that at all .
The rowdy crowd couldn’t help themselves from retreating .
The girl stared closely at Gu Qing Shan, her impression of evil creatures, in general, became a bit better .
She cleared her throat and said seriously: “Very well . As the acting representative of the Hitman Guild, I hereby issue the following order from the HQ:”
“Intermediate-level Hitman Ye Fei Li, you are to protect and escort the Guild’s 1st level representative back to the Hitman Guild’s HQ”
“Got it” Gu Qing Shan replied .
The girl nodded, brought Gu Qing Shan inside the Hitman Guild, and closed the door from inside .
“Let’s go now!”
She said .
——–as soon as she did, a sharp screeching noise came from afar .
Boom!!!
A large hole was drilled into the Hitman Guild’s front door .
A masked person appeared .
The masked person shouted: “Turn the Hitman Guild’s wealth over to me and I shall spare you death!”
“Dream on!”
Gu Qing Shan drew his sword and charged forward .
In an instant be had engaged in combat with the masked person .
The two of them turned into blurred images and wrestled against one another, quickly moving their battle onto the main road .
The shockwaves that their battle gave off was enough to destroy several large buildings around them .
“Go!” Gu Qing Shan shouted to the girl .
The girl gritted her teeth, turned, and ran deeper into the depths of the Hitman Guild .
She went through layer after layer of secret paths, stopping at a certain junction and started climbing upwards until she reached a secret room at the top floor and pressed a button in a hidden corner of the wall .
An open room appeared in front of her .
A droplet-shaped silver shuttle with the pointy end in front was on display in this room .
The girl boarded the shuttle and activated it .
“Ye Fei Li, as long as you survive, I guarantee that the organization will reward you well” the girl sobbed as she called out .
She barely managed to retain her calm and pressed down on a certain button .
The walls and roof started opening up .
The shuttle jumped into the air, entered a black hole, and left this world .
Gu Qing Shan continued to fight against the masked person .
This was a Lord-class battle that was literally blowing everyone too weak around its vicinity away .
If someone tried to get a bit closer, then they would instead be killed .
But now, none of the Professionists around them took too much distance .
Most of them were still busy pillaging as much as they could .
A few particularly powerful Professionists among them stopped their vicious battles to seriously observe their fight instead .
It wasn’t easy for them to witness such a high-leveled battle, this would greatly help their advancement .
Gu Qing Shan was thoroughly suppressed in the battle, almost dying a few times .
Only after the girl’s shuttle had thoroughly gone away did he suddenly retreat .
“You’re strong, I’m not a match for you”
Gu Qing Shan wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth and admitted .
The masked person replied: “Then scram, back to your Hitman Guild . I have more choices to pick from . Interfere with me and I will really kill you”
Gu Qing Shan said nothing and dejectedly retreated to the Guild building .
The masked person didn’t chase after him .
She instead turned around towards the mixed crowd and declared: “Money, or your life . Choose and leave one of them behind”
Half an hour later .
The hotel balcony .
Gu Qing Shan looked at Lin and tried asking: “Our original plan was just to deceive the girl and retreat, so why did you rob those guys as well?”
Lin casually replied: “I saw that it wasn’t easy for you to make money, so I helped you earn some more . Besides, they aren’t exactly heroes of virtue either”
“What?” she faced Gu Qing Shan’s gaze straight on: “Are you saying you have an issue with what I did?”
Gu Qing Shan paused .
——–there was one benefit of constantly struggling at the edge of life and death for many years .
That was his premonition of danger had become extremely sensitive .
Gu Qing Shan raised a thumb and praised her: “You did a great job, exactly what I wanted to do”
Lin’s lips curved up slightly but swiftly relaxed again .
She put a few Cards on the table and said indifferently: “I noticed you’ve been constantly looking for Cards and other similar things, so I took back all the Cards that those guys stole . Take a look if you can use any of them”
Gu Qing Shan looked at the 5 Cards on the table .
In truth, he was grateful .
Although she stole them, one can’t exactly expect a martial arts expert from the Bygone Era and a Combatant who from the Eternal Abyss to be reasonable in the first place .
Combatants of this level were usually the law itself, so they usually don’t care much for the rules of the normal world .
Gu Qing Shan carefully put the Cards away and replied: “Thank you very much . If not for you, I would have spent quite a bit of effort”
“It’s nothing big . Now tell me, how do you plan on getting rid of the Demon Dragon?” Lin asked with concern .
“We need to go somewhere” Gu Qing Shan replied .
“Where?”
“The Eternal Abyss——– the Apocalypse of the Abyss comes from a parallel world, but since I have the twin swords, I’ll be able to ensure both you and me have safe passage——- I’ll then lead the Demon Dragon near the Apocalypse and throw him into it”
“…As I thought, you really are rotten to the core”
“It’s just a bit of smart, and isn’t that also your goal? I assume that you know a few safe paths that can lead directly into the Abyss”
Gu Qing Shan recalled the words he heard inside the Abyssal Jail .
————the Abyssal Fate Weaver constructed many paths that led into the Primordial Heaven Realm, but they were all sealed off .
Since one end of the path was the Primordial Heaven Realm, the other must naturally be the Eternal Abyss .
Lin’s gaze fell down, but her body had already tensed up .
She couldn’t keep herself from trembling .
Can I take this chance to go through the Reality Gate itself?
It is finally time for my vengeance?
“Indeed, I opened up quite a few paths, one of which could indeed help us lead the Demon Dragon into that Apocalypse” Lin replied .
“Then we shouldn’t dawdle, let’s get to it now . Give me the map, I need to choose a place to expose my movements” Gu Qing Shan stood up and said .
Lin nodded and was about to say something, but her expression changed .
“What is it?”
Noticing her complexion, Gu Qing Shan doubtfully asked .
Lin caught his wrist and answered seriously: “We need to get away quickly, a terrifying one is coming!”
They both flew outside .
Lin flicked her hand to break open the void of space and jumped in together with Gu Qing Shan .
In the final moments, Gu Qing Shan witnessed a bizarre scene .
The entire Seaside World was being split in half by a strange sight .
Half of it was nighttime, with ruined structures and bones laid scattered all over, not a single living being in sight .
The night was spreading, corroding away the other half of the world that was still in the daylight .
Any being swallowed by the night would turn into a pile of bones on the spot, unable to resist at all .
Those who managed to stay within the daylight were running away with their lives, trying to avoid the night .
The corrosion of the Apocalypse from a parallel world had escaped the Abyss and was slowly devouring this world as well .
