Inside the small house, the two of them were still chatting.
"That means, both Bali and Buttercup are on the Temporal Oasis, growing stronger using the [Order] method while heading towards a certain point in the future?" Buttercup asked.
"That's right" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"You returned to the time when the war between the Eternal Abyss and the Wraith realm had just begun, then came to Void City in order to do something to the Wraith realm?" Buttercup asked.
"That's right, there's no need to hide it from you. After all, it's already happened, and that Temporal Oasis is also moving forward in the River of Time, no one can change it" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Buttercup appeared worried: "Hmph, so the Wraith realm bastards want to go against the entire 900 million World Layers, Bali and Meow would definitely fight against them … but the Wraith realm is too powerful, this is going to be troublesome"
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
He was very relaxed in front of Buttercup, not telling a single lie.
She had even left a life-saving imprint on me, and she really did save me once, so there's no need to hide these things.
Buttercup thought for a bit, then turned to evaluate Gu Qing Shan and asked: "You've grown quite quickly, but to go against the Wraith realm … I forgot to ask you, what identity are you using to stay in Void City?"
"I'm a Hitman in the Hitman Guild" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Buttercup scoffed: "Hmph, so you're from the Hitman Guild, that's a notorious organization"
Gu Qing Shan was speechless.
Your Ominous Demon Tower's reputation isn't any better either.
Seemingly knowing what he was thinking, Buttercup continued: "Unfortunately, you're a pure human, otherwise I would've made you an assistant instructor in our Ominous Demon Tower, that way, the Wraith realm people wouldn't dare to mess with you"
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask: "How strong are you right now?"
"There's not much to say, I have to attend classes every day and take care of my child, so I'm only a bit stronger than you" Buttercup replied.
Gu Qing Shan was still speechless.
"But this has nothing to do with strength, it's because the Wraith realm is afraid of offending us" Buttercup continued.
Gu Qing Shan became even more curious and asked, "Why?"
"Our tower master is the famous Lord Devourer of the Void, while our vice tower master has a few fragments of the Wraith realm" Buttercup replied.
Gu Qing Shan was startled. She murmured, "Could it be … that you're threatening me with this?"
"That's right, if the people of the Wraith realm become disobedient, our Tower Master would consume those fragments of the world. That way, even if he were to show mercy one day and pull those fragments out, those fragments would still be stained with the power of eternal corruption, unable to be removed" Buttercup explained.
"What would happen if the Wraith realm fused with such a world fragment?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Buttercup pridefully replied: "The entire Wraith realm is now reeking of the stench of feces, causing plagues and diseases to appear all over the world. It wouldn't be until 100 million years later that this situation would gradually disappear"
Gu Qing Shan was speechless again.
This kind of restraining method is truly …
Miraculous and shocking.
From the Wraith realm's perspective …
A world filled with the stench of feces wants to conquer the entire Samsara, isn't that ridiculous?
Who would listen to them?
No wonder the old man in the bar couldn't do anything but apologize to Buttercup as soon as he saw her.
Gu Qing Shan placed her hand on her chest, sensing the mark.
Now that I think about it, I've never been officially killed before.
An out-of-body experience is a fake death.
When I went to the Age of Old, Lin had been hiding with the three coins, ready to act at any moment to save me.
The reason why I was able to survive so many battles until the very end was because death had stimulated all of my potential.
This is the true shortcut for a warrior to quickly improve.
"Buttercup, I have a favor to ask of you"
"What is it?"
"Please take this mark away" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Hm? You don't want such a useful item? "Buttercup asked in surprise.
"That's right, it was fine when I didn't know about its use before, but now that I do … from now on, whenever I fight someone, I'll always think about how I still have my life, so I'll lose all interest in fighting"
Buttercup tilted her head to look at him for a while, then smiled: "I didn't think you'd have some guts"
She raised her hand, summoning a glowing butterfly between her fingers.
"Go, tell Bai Zu that my family is here, I want to give that to my family, ask him if it's okay"
The butterfly flapped its wings and quickly disappeared into the void of space.
A few moments later.
A block of wood appeared in front of Buttercup. A hoarse voice resounded from the block of wood:
「 Your family? Is it your man? 」
"No" Buttercup replied.
The voice loosened up a bit and gently spoke: 「 If it's your family, then give him a certificate, no problem. Furthermore, Buttercup, I love you, my love is like the stars in the sky 」
"Get lost" Buttercup cut the voice off: "As far as the stars are from me, you'll be as far away from me as you are from me"
She then slapped the block of wood, causing the other party to disappear without a trace.
"Alright, seems like I can give you a certificate"
Buttercup casually took out a scroll, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Gu Qing Shan: "I'll take the mark, but you keep this"
"What is this?" Gu Qing Shan wiped his cold sweat and asked.
He looked at the scroll, only to see a line of text written in the void language:
[Ominous Demon Tower's certificate of trouble]
There was also a small line of text below to explain:
[The holder of this certificate is a student or family member of the Ominous Demon Tower, if they cause any trouble in your place, please take care of them and provide them with warm encouragement]
Reading this certificate, Gu Qing Shan slowly realized what it meant.
That's asking for a beating.
But if this is a genuine attitude, then it's very telling.
Just how strong did he have to be to get the other party to give him warm encouragement after causing trouble?
"… Wait a minute, did your vice tower master … keep a few fragments of every organization's world?" he asked.
"You're very smart" Buttercup praised him.
"But some worlds are complete, there are no such things as fragments" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"We will secretly take a few fragments from a complete world's Origin and bring them back" Buttercup replied.
"The Ominous Demon Tower's strength shouldn't be limited to just eating world fragments and doing that sort of thing isn't enough to convince the masses" Gu Qing Shan seriously said.
Buttercup straightened her body and spoke with a serious expression: "Of course, we are the top-level demons of the space vortex, each of us was an existence that slaughtered countless worlds in the past. However, most of us are already old and have children, so we decided to band together and set up a shill in Void City, no, the Ominous Demon Tower"
"You're not fighting anymore?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I'm already old, so my temper has gotten a lot better, I don't go around making enemies anymore. As long as the Apocalypse isn't around, I'll just do some business and live a good life" Buttercup replied.
She put her hand on Gu Qing Shan's chest, took out a talisman, and put it into her sleeve.
"I'll take this talisman back and put it on my son, this way, I won't have to worry so much when he goes to the space vortex for practical lessons"
Gu Qing Shan's gaze flickered a bit.
Lines of glowing text appeared in the void of space on the War God UI:
[You've lost her talisman, as well as a chance to revive after death]
Gu Qing Shan silently sensed it for a bit, then muttered to herself: "Hm, this feels right …"
Buttercup looked at him deeply, then muttered:
"At least I didn't misjudge you. Regarding your desire to deal with the Wraith realm, I can tell you that simply entering their world is an extremely difficult task"
"I understand" Gu Qing Shan replied, "I'm preparing to raise my rank to Unsolvable in the Hitman Guild, then accept a few assassination missions into the Wraith realm"
Buttercup shook her head: "That won't work, the Hitman Guild wouldn't be able to penetrate the Wraith realm's Causality Law defenses, they would only be able to infiltrate for an hour at most, after which they would be forcefully transported out"
She sighed emotionally: "The Wraith realm is the most xenophobic world there is, I'm guessing that they're hiding some sort of shocking secret, which is why they don't allow anyone from the outside to enter their territory"
Gu Qing Shan froze.
Only an hour?
In that amount of time, I wouldn't be able to do anything other than complete an assassination mission.
Do I have to think of something else …
Buttercup stood up, paced back and forth in the room for a while, then suddenly sat down across from Gu Qing Shan and solemnly asked:
"What do you want to do in the Wraith realm?"
"Get rid of them" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Buttercup stayed silent for a while, then waved her hand to set up a soundproof barrier in the room.
She seemed to have made up her mind and said:
"Both Bali and Meow are my benefactors, and you're also a decent person. How about this, I have a way to help you infiltrate the Wraith realm, but you'll need to work hard on it yourself, or at least reach the minimum requirements"
Gu Qing Shan became spirited and asked: "What is it? What do you need me to do? "
Buttercup looked at him and replied: "You're a sword cultivator, an Hitman, as well as an expert in cooking and many other abilities. I remember that you've taken on many different identities in the Suspended world"
"That's right" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Buttercup continued: "I'll give you one month, you need to reach the level of a Titled Hitman within one month, this is the minimum requirement"
"One month?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Buttercup replied: "That's right, only if you can reach this requirement will my method have a chance of working, at which point, I'll do my best to help you"
Gu Qing Shan replied in a low voice: "Very well, I'll do it"
