As soon as Gu Nan's voice fell, the whole scene seemed to fall silent. Whether it was Le Zhang or the girl, they all looked at him as if they had seen a ghost.
The two of them could not be blamed, as Gu Nan's words were too shocking.
The girl stared at Gu Nan for a while, and finally realized that the guy in front of her was not joking, so she said fiercely, "Ridiculous!"
Then, he quickly disappeared.
Le Zhang smiled awkwardly, surprised at the fierceness of this lord, but also very glad that he had come.
If his character was too gentle, he was afraid that with the girl's identity, it would be easy to suppress him, and then there would be no hope for his mission.
"It's not easy to seal off the floating island," Le Zhang said with a wry smile. "After all, we need the help of the floating island's master. If we let them lock up their territory …" Le Zhang said with a wry smile.
"Then find someone from the other floating islands to do it." Gu Nan had a "you're so stupid" expression on his face. "We've killed the high-level forces of three floating islands, and there's a lot of good territory left. Don't tell me none of the other floating islands are tempted?"
Le Zhang was stunned again. He finally realized that the person in front of him really wanted to do this, even at the cost of provoking a war in the Sea of Ghosts.
And from a practical point of view, it was not impossible …
Le Zhang quickly shook his head, throwing this terrible idea out of his head.
He believed that he was not a person without a bottom line like the other party. In order to chase down a target, he would bury thousands of innocent people … At least, he would not do that unless it was absolutely necessary.
However, Gu Nan's cold gaze fell straight on his face. "What other questions do you have?"
"This …" The indifference in Gu Nan's eyes made Le Zhang's heart feel as if it was being gripped by an invisible hand, and he was somewhat speechless.
He knew that if he could not give a satisfactory answer, the other party was likely to turn hostile. Even if he would not kill due to the rules of the astral gate, it would certainly not be easy to bear.
A drop of cold sweat appeared on Le Zhang's forehead, but he hurriedly said, "Sealing the entire floating island is too inefficient and time-consuming … We already have some clues about the target, why don't we give it a try first?"
He finished his speech very quickly. Finally, Gu Nan was able to understand a little. Gu Nan nodded his head, indicating for him to continue.
The movement breathed a sigh of relief. He was born in a Sky-class plane. He had seen many World Breakers, so he had some understanding of all kinds of cultivators.
Some of the Break World people were easy to get along with. They could even make friends with normal people. Some of them were so high up that they treated human lives like dirt.
Le Zhang believed that the person in front of him belonged to the latter, so he didn't use any righteous words to persuade him. Instead, he used the word "efficiency".
…
There were as many floating islands in the Ghost Sea as there were hairs on an ox, and they were of different sizes.
Some were as big as a city in the Astral Realm, while some were as small as a few football fields. One could see the borders with a single glance.
Gu Nan was now on a medium-sized floating island called "Yantai" with Le Zhang and the others, waiting for news.
There were clues about Sinberg on all three floating islands. Some people had seen Sinberg, and some were even related to him.
They didn't dare to alert him before, but now that Gu Nan was in charge, they could naturally go and test him.
As long as Sinberg dared to show up on this floating island, Gu Nan could kill him in an instant.
While they were waiting for news, Shadow Song naturally followed beside Gu Nan. She wasn't very interested in Gu Nan's mission. Instead, she was more interested in the girl from before.
"What's the girl's name?" Shadow Song asked Le Zhang excitedly.
"She looks older than you." Before Le Zhang could speak, Gu Nan answered.
"I've lived for tens of thousands of years …"
"But she still looks bigger than you. I mean breasts."
Shadow Song turned his head with a dark face and stared fiercely at Le Zhang. His stare made the young man's hair stand on end. He quickly explained the girl's origin.
In fact, it wasn't complicated.
The girl's name was Zhu Qin. She was also a member of the astral gate, but she wasn't a participant in this mission. Instead, she was a native of the Ghost Sea World.
The Ghost Sea World was really a very small plane. When the people from the astral gate had just arrived, Zhu Qin was the first to notice it, and the two sides came into contact.
This kind of situation was actually not uncommon. After all, there were astral gate members in all the major planes. When someone went here to do a mission, sometimes their companions would also help.
Of course, there might be counterproductive situations. Zhu Qin was an example.
She held a rather uncooperative attitude toward the operation of Le Zhang and the others this time. For example, when Le Zhang wanted to lightly seal off a certain floating island, she strongly opposed it.
Zhu Qin's opposition wasn't a joke. She had a solid foundation.
She was just an ordinary extraordinary, but her identity wasn't simple at all. To put it simply, she was the little princess of the Ghost Sea World.
Although the Ghost Sea World wasn't big, it also had a government group, and it was a feudal empire.
The current king was Zhu Qin's biological father, so she could be considered a princess in name only.
"The princess of this broken place is useless, right?" Shadow Song wasn't stupid. She knew that for an organization like the astral gate, Zhu Qin's identity was nothing.
Le Zhang had a wry smile, but before he could speak, someone next to him said, "It's because she has a good sister!"
This was the same as Le Zhang. He was a member of the team who had come to carry out the mission. Clearly, he had a lot of resentment toward Zhu Qin for blocking his way.
"Her sister is a World Breaker, but she isn't a member of the organization," Le Zhang added. This was the real answer.
World Breaker!
During the mission, the astral gate would protect the members who were carrying out the mission, but what about when the mission ended?
If Zhu Qin didn't like one of them and wanted her sister to teach them a lesson, then their team would be in trouble.
Plus, Zhu Qin's sister was from the Ghost Sea World.
If their team stirred up trouble there and made a World Breaker unhappy, they might not be on their side.
Fortunately, Gu Nan had come. Only a Break World being could not care less about Zhu Qin. Only a Break World being able to do anything to capture Sin Berg.
"Why isn't she cooperating?" Gu Nan stroked his chin. His question wasn't a question. It sounded like he was talking to himself. "Protect the environment? Save the world? Doesn't seem like it. "
After listening to Le Zhang's story, Gu Nan wasn't concerned about Zhu Qin's sister. He was concerned about something else.
"Go and find out what happened to Xin Berg in the past few years. See if he had anything to do with Zhu Qin," Gu Nan said to Le Zhang. "Or check on her sister and Xin Berg."
When Gu Nan said this, his eyes fell into the distance. He looked cold.
