At this point, notifications were popping up on the War God UI.

Gu Qing Shan took a look at them.

A few glowing letters appeared on top of everything.

[Golden Core/Rejuvenation double realm Thaumaturgy Quest completed]

[You’ve completed 7 missions, gaining 7 chances at picking a random Thaumaturgy]

[You’ve successfully survived (temporarily). You’ve received Divine Skill: Shadow Shift]

After he read through them, the text slowly faded away.

A new notification appeared.

[Destiny Quest: Decisive battle (2)]

[Quest description: As the fate of the world and the people intertwine, within the brewing storm, you’ve been accepted by the Earth Sword, changing details within the flow of destiny]

[Quest objective: In the near future, make sure that Shen Wu world will at least stay intact]

[Quest completed]

Once again, the text faded away after Gu Qing Shan read them.

Another line of text appeared.

[You’ve completed the Destiny Quest: Decisive battle (2)]

[Congratulations, you’ve fully earned the use of War God Title, in the battles from now on, you will be able to keep using War God Title]

[You’ve managed to keep Shen Wu world intact and killed the one behind it all]

[You went above and beyond the Quest objective]

[Additional reward granted]

[Additional reward: Once you return to Reality, you can come back at any time you wish, the time limit no longer applies]

[The user can now return to Reality]

Then a red notification appeared:

[Unique Quest triggered]

[Unique Quest: Wu San must die]

[Quest description: Attention user, in the completely new and foreign world to come, there remains one last person who knows about Shen Wu world and the cultivation world]

[Once you’ve killed this person, there would be no one else who knows of the two world’s existence]

[This is directly related to the fate of the two worlds, extreme caution is advised]

[Quest objective: Before the secret gets found out by anyone else, permanently silence the one who knows about this]

[Quest reward: The user may choose one other Quest and instantly complete it]

Looking through the Quest details, Gu Qing Shan nodded.

This was a crucial detail that he had kept in mind.

During the time when he investigated the enemy’s camp, he killed two of the scouting cultivators.

He used soul reading on one of them and managed to find out that the Zishan young master had another close aide.

This close aide knows about everything, however he didn’t come to Shen Wu world.

And that person is called Wu San.

Everyone else who knows about the worlds have already been killed by the Tianma.

The Zishan young master was already trapped in the Tianma’s world; he’ll die sooner or later.

Which means the only person left who knows of this is Wu San.

If the Zishan young master is absent for too long, his father might ask about this.

As his close aide, Wu San will definitely be thoroughly interrogated.

At that time, it won’t be possible to hide Shen Wu world and the cultivation world anymore.

If the Zishan young master’s father manages to break through, he’ll become a Cryptic realm cultivator.

He will be one of the most powerful beings in the other world.

And if the Zishan young master’s father were to act, both worlds will have no way to resist at all.

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

Who would’ve thought the situation would become this complicated.

Luckily, Shifu managed to survive.

Which means everything was worth it.

He glanced at the space vortex around, then at the two women next to him.

In front of them, a shining gate appeared.

From the gate, excess spirit energy was drifting out following the wind.

Such immense spirit energy almost carries its own sentience.

Gu Qing Shan only needed to breathe in twice to feel completely refreshed.

“Truly, a paradise…”

He muttered.

Unfortunately, even such a world was reaching its end.

The Demon God is destroying everything.

Seems like he’ll have to find a chance to see just what exactly that terrifying Demon God is.

But first, let’s think of how to survive.

While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, the two women next two him were already panicking.

“We’re almost there, it seems there isn’t time for you to disguise as him” Nan Gong Qing Rou spoke in a low voice.

“Not good, we’ll have to risk our lives now, you just find a way to escape” Yun Wan Er also said.

“Yes, you have such a powerful Divine Skill like Shadow Shift, you can definitely escape” Nan Gong Qing Rou added.

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the two of them.

At such a moment, they were still thinking of using their lives to repay their debts.

Having been through so much suffering, yet these girls still manage to preserve their original mindset, truly worthy of respect.

Such people are the most trustworthy companions he could ask for.

Alright…

Gu Qing Shan muttered: “Return”

Time was frozen in this very moment.

A flash of light appeared.

Gu Qing Shan escaped from the current flow of time, pushed into another space-time by a different force.

…

It was raining.

A cold, chilling rain.

A rain that was occasionally mixed with fragments of ice were pouring down in the darkness of the night.

It was morning when he left, but it was already night when he returned.

For each day he spends in the cultivation world, one hour would pass in Reality.

Standing in the cold rain, Gu Qing Shan caught the rain water with his hand.

A cold, bone-chilling rain.

Before the demons attacked, the entire world would always rain.

This was a unique characteristic of the Apocalypse.

The previous time it stopped raining, the Game of Eternal descended on this world.

Then what about this time?

Gu Qing Shan looked up at the night sky.

The rain was still pouring down, seems like it won’t be stopping any time soon.

That’s fine as well, before the rain stopped, before the demons arrived again, I have to do everything that I need to do.

The Holo-Brain in his breast pocket shined.

[Good evening, sir]

[The current temperature is -3 degrees C, Northwest winds at level 5]

[The storm and cold rain will be detrimental to your health, please be advised to avoid the rain]

Impartial Goddess very considerately reminded him.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “I know, where are they?”

Impartial Goddess responded: [Mr. Zhang Ying Hao is currently arranging an assassination against the Holy Church. Mr. Liao Xing brought Mr. Ye Fei Li to the Capital’s Rainbow bar for a drink]

“A drink huh?”

Gu Qing Shan smiled, about to head to the mountaintop mansion.

Suddenly, Impartial Goddess continued: [During the time of your absence, I received a signal from the Blazing Angel]

“What signal?”

[The emergency signal that you programmed in case of abnormal situations]

Gu Qing Shan’s mind instantly became blank.

Su Xue Er.

Did something happen to her?

“Tell me everything, now” Gu Qing Shan ordered.

A bright light flew from the sky, landing right in front of Gu Qing Shan.

The Blazing Angel Mobile Mech.

The Blazing Angel reported: [Sir, Su Xue Er was headed to the North Pole, then her signal got cut off]

“Do you know where?”

[The signal disappeared at a certain point at the North Pole]

“We’re going!”

The Mech’s cockpit opened and Gu Qing Shan quickly jumped inside.

The Mech then closed up as the two wings of light suddenly spread outward.

The Blazing Angel Mech shot straight up, broke through the sound barrier with a ‘bang’ and headed North.

In the sky.

The further North they went, the colder it got.

The hurricane-force wind was hissing, screaming, the falling snow was so thick it was almost pure white outside.

Not afraid of the snow or wind, the Blazing Angel kept flying forward at its maximum speed.

Impartial Goddess’s voice came: [Sir, there is an unexpected interference around the perimeter of the North Pole, the Blazing Angel cannot get any closer]

“Open the hatch” Gu Qing Shan ordered.

[Sir, it’s freezing cold outside, and we’re over 10,000 meters off the ground]

“It’s fine, just open the hatch”

The Blazing Angel’s cockpit opened.

Gu Qing Shan jumped out, hovering among the screaming rain of snow.

Spirit energy flowed around his body, isolating it from the chilling snow and ice outside.

“Return to the nearest orbital station, I’ll go the rest of the way by myself” Gu Qing Shan ordered the Blazing Angel.

[Understood, sir]

The Blazing Angel turned into a streak of light, headed for orbit.

Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag and took out his personal airship.

Controlling the airship, he kept moving towards the North Pole.

“Why would she come to this kind of place?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[Lady Su Xue Er had become the Lord of the Su family, so she came to the North Pole to perform the 9 Lords’ Rite of Inheritance]

“She’s a Lord now?” Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised, “if it’s as you said, then this is something that every Lord has to go through?”

[That is correct] Impartial Goddess replied.

Gu Qing Shan sighed briefly from relief.

Although this is some sort of ancient rite of inheritance, the fact is that they still lost contact with Su Xue Er.

“Help me check for a bit, has any Lord ran into any problems during the history of the rite of inheritance?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[The procedure to check information of the Lords is quite complicated, it will take a while] Impartial Goddess responded.

“No matter, just check it, I want to know”

After waiting for a bit, Gu Qing Shan felt a bit impatient.

Thinking about it, he decided he should just go ahead and see the situation first.

The airship then turned into a streak of light, dashing through the rain of snow and headed for the North Pole.
