————————–

Bai Hua sect.

Delicious food and drinks had been laid out all over the table.

“What? You mean, Third Brother just suddenly left?” Xiu Xiu asked in shock.

Qin Xiao Lou nodded with a troubled expression: “That’s right, he seems to be in so much of a hurry that he couldn’t even say anything else to me before he left”

Wan Er was worried: “What exactly happened? When Shifu left, she was in a lot of hurry, and now Third Brother was the same, seriously, what’s going on?”

They all exchanged glances and felt worried.

The table was full of delicious food, but no one took a single bite.

Qing Rou silently sighed, adjusted her emotions, then suddenly giggled.

“Huh?”

Everyone turned to her.

“Junior sister, what are you giggling about?” Qin Xiao Lou couldn’t help but ask.

Qing Rou smiled: “Me? I was giggling because everyone was needlessly worrying”

“Needlessly worrying? What do you mean?” Wan Er asked.

Qing Rou explained: “Doesn’t everyone already know how powerful Shifu is? What is there to worry about? As for Third Brother, he was in a different situation, erm, it’s not really good for me to explain it”

Xiu Xiu slipped down from her chair and ran up to Qing Rou, tightly holding onto her hand and shook while begging her: “Big sis Qing Rou, my respected big sister, what exactly happened with Third Brother, please tell me, I beg you”

Qing Rou paused briefly before acting like she had no other choice: “Alright since you’re all so worried like this, I’ll tell you——”

“Third Brother, he had actually gone out to find Blade Saint Ning”

“WHAT!?”

Qin Xiao Lou, Wan Er, and Xiu Xiu were all shocked.

“How do you know that?” Wan Er asked.

Qing Rou’s expression was relaxed as she continued to make things up: “How ridiculous, he asked me earlier what kind of thing was best to give as a present to a girl, so I told him that it depends on the person. When I heard that it was Ning Yue Chan, I told him that he should just give her some flowers, then spar with her a little bit, and finally after sparring, he should help her cook and clean. That would be the best present”

Bai Hua Hall fell into silence for a few moments.

“You know, I’ve already noticed that there was something between them since a long time ago”

Qin Xiao Lou loudly declared.

Feeling a bit hungry, he casually grabbed a chicken drumstick for himself.

“That’s right, they’ve known one another for a very long time, Third Brother had even saved Blade Saint Ning” Xiu Xiu recalled and said.

She suddenly felt hungry as well, so she was unable to turn her attention away from the table full of steaming hot food in front of her.

“Gu Qing Shan really is tactless, forgetting about us as soon as he found someone. Hmph, ignore him, let’s dig in!” Wan Er picked up a bowl of soup and declared.

“Alright!” Qing Rou smiled brightly and replied.

Boom——–

Suddenly, a resounding noise was heard from outside Bai Hua Hall.

While all the disciples were surprised, Qing Rou was the first to rush outside to check the situation.

When everyone arrived at the main square of the sect, they saw an unfamiliar cultivator standing there, curiously observing his surroundings.

“Who are you?” Qin Xiao Lou loudly questioned.

Noticing them, that cultivator quickly fixed his appearance and clasped his fist: “Everyone, I am a cultivator from the Eastern Earth world, Sha Jiu Zang, here to face my 10-day {Yama King} realm Tribulation at Bai Hua sect. Please give me your orders, and I shall fulfil it”

All the disciples of Bai Hua sect froze up, unable to react in time.

Ah right.

Third Brother was the Lord of the Yama Heavenly Realm.

That’s why this person came here to face his Tribulation.

After a while, Xiu Xiu was the first to speak up: “Fellow Dao seeker, I... still haven’t finished planting my flowers, can you help me with it?”

The cultivator answered with a solemn expression: “Of course, I would be more than happy to work following the Lord of the Yama Heavenly Realm’s will”

...

Gu Qing Shan was continuously vanishing and reappearing in the sky, traversing thousands of miles each time he did.

He was moving forward as fast as possible.

From the void of space, lines of glowing text suddenly manifested in front of his vision:

[The first cultivator had arrived at Bai Hua sect, he vowed to follow your rules and fulfil your wishes to complete his {Yama King} realm Tribulation]

[You’ve obtained 10 Prayers]

Gu Qing Shan appeared surprised.

—–so I can earn Prayers like this as well.

However, he quickly put that to the back of his mind and continued to be on his way at full speed.

After a while, the Earth sword finally couldn’t help but ask:

「 Gu Qing Shan, where had Ling’er gone to? 」

——–it had stayed by Xie Dao Ling’s side for countless years, watching her grow and mature as well as the establishment of Bai Hua sect, it wasn’t until Gu Qing Shan was accepted as a disciple that it finally left Xie Dao Ling’s hand.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “I’m not sure, but I think she’s most likely fighting against an Apocalypse”

「 An Apocalypse? How did the Apocalypse find her? 」the Earth sword asked.

“Within the Deathmatch Dance, Reneedol and I exchanged our Fates, after which she used something to freely select which Fate she would have to face. I suspect that she chose the Age of Old Fate because she noticed that she would be able to redo it hundreds of time” Gu Qing Shan answered.

——what an idiotic woman, the Age of Old was actually a much more dangerous period compared to any of my other Fates.

Gu Qing Shan silently thought to himself.

「 And that’s how Reneedol met Ling’er? 」the Earth sword asked.

“Yes, but that’s not the key point—– from the beginning, she most likely didn’t try to summon an Apocalypse from outside the Reality Gate because she thought that it was her definite victory with so many tries——— so I think she had most likely met Shifu and travelled back to the Age of Old where she faced numerous trials. After discovering that it was impossible, she finally remembered that she could summon an Apocalypse” Gu Qing Shan made his conjecture.

「 —–which was also during Xie Gu Hong’s entrustment 」the Earth sword followed up.

“That’s right” Gu Qing Shan confirmed.

The Earth sword was clearly anxious and said: 「 Why did an Apocalypse outside the Reality Gate specifically go searching for Ling’er? She’s in a lot of danger! 」

Gu Qing Shan consoled it: “I know that you’re worried about her, I am as well; but as far as I can see, she is most likely still alive”

「 How do you know that? 」 the Earth sword asked.

Gu Qing Shan calmly analyzed: “The fact that she was able to leave so many hidden messages for me to say that she wanted my help meant that her situation wasn’t actually that bad—— if she was facing a situation of guaranteed death, she would have been willing to die alone rather than getting a disciple involved”

「 So that’s why, that’s good to hear 」the Earth sword sighed in relief.

Gu Qing Shan fell silent and continued to move as fast as possible.

——there was something that he failed to mention.

Just because Xie Dao Ling was currently fine didn’t mean that she would continue to remain fine.

In the future, the Samsara Clash of Supremacy hadn’t begun at all.

Su Xue Er said that everything in the future she came from had already been destroyed, and that only she and Impartial Goddess remained to prolong their last breaths.

——the fact that such a future was possible meant that there was a very serious problem with the Samsara.

Xie Dao Ling... might have really been killed by two Apocalypses.

Gu Qing Shan’s gaze suddenly became sharp and said:

“Earth sword”

「 I’m here 」the Earth sword replied.

“Luo Bing Li, Shannu, Chao Yin” Gu Qing Shan called out again.

“Here”

“What’s the matter, gongzi?”

Oong!

All of his swords manifested behind him.

Gu Qing Shan thought briefly before telling them: “Following this, I will most likely have to use everything I have”

Luo Bing Li asked in return: “When have you ever not used everything you had?”

Gu Qing Shan replied: “This time is different, I will probably... be very different compared to before, just don’t feel shocked about it”

“What kind of form will gongzi turn into again” Shannu worriedly asked.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head: “It’s not a physical change, I simply won’t be able to collect information or worry about minor details again. Right now, I have to do a few things as fast as possible, so I hope that you all will have also made the preparation to exert yourself as much as possible as well”

“Gongzi, I’m ready to kill at any moment!” Shannu emotionally declared.

“I don’t have an issue at all—— whether it’s to fight or to sleep” Luo Bing Li replied.

「 Don’t worry, Gu Qing Shan. For the sake of Ling’er’s safety, I will slay all obstacles that stand in your way! 」the Earth sword called out.

The Chao Yin sword uttered a resounding ‘wu wu’ in response.

Gu Qing Shan silently listened to them all and smiled softly.

He muttered: “Then we’re going to begin right now!”

He suddenly sped up, turning into a streak of light that descended into the ground.

「 What are you doing? 」the Earth sword asked.

“I can sense the second body part of the frozen corpse is hidden deep below this region” Gu Qing Shan loudly replied.

“Do we need to scatter and help you find a path that leads underground?” Luo Bing Li asked.

“No need, we need to seize our time” Gu Qing Shan replied.

He wielded the Earth sword tightly and formed a sword seal in front of himself.

“Open!”

With a resounding shout, a tsunami wave of sword phantoms struck the ground.

The sun and moon had both lost their shine, the heaven and earth both shook intensely!

While standing in the sky, Gu Qing Shan looked down.

The ground was no longer there.

Deep below ground, a mass of light was continuously glowing.

Gu Qing Shan waved his hand.

That glowing mass of light swiftly flew into the sky and hovered in front of him.

——-it was a sealing casket that exuded a chilling presence.

Lines of glowing text then appeared on the War God UI:

[You’ve discovered the frozen corpse’s sealing casket (2), which contains one part of the frozen corpse’s body]

[You can use this part of the corpse to eventually reconstruct the entire Secret Apocalypse]

——facing his sword phantoms, only the frozen corpse’s body part would be able to endure it without getting destroyed.

Which allowed him to instantly find the second body part.

The Earth sword immediately called out: 「 Alright, now we’re going to save Ling’er! 」

“No, we’re not heading out to save her”

Gu Qing Shan replied with a cold tone.
