Gu Qing Shan entered the palace.
Suddenly, the music resounded around him again.
Everyone was attracted by the sound and turned to look at him.
"Why did you return?" Wraith Lord Fate Obstruction asked.
This time, Gu Qing Shan was a lot more at ease and smiled: "I didn't have time to practice my sword during such a crucial moment, I'm probably more needed here"
"Hmph, that's more like it" Wraith Lord Giant Frame said in satisfaction.
Gu Qing Shan looked around.
The angels had all left with Lin.
Other than Reneedol, there were only three Wraith Lords here.
At this point, something unexpected happened — — -
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared on the War God UI:
[Living Being Sacrificial Dance, preparation for the opening trial — —]
[Attention: The prelude to the Dance of Death is currently being created]
[Your personal prelude music is rapidly changing, the exact direction of the change will be determined by the outcome of this trial]
"Please kill at least one villain who is stronger than you within 30 minutes. His blood will provide inspiration for the Dance of Death."
[This is the starting point of the entire Sacrificial Dance, a new moment of combat in your life]
[The more blood there is, the more intense the Dance]
[— — -Taste the desire to kill, believe yourself to be holy]
The lines of glowing text disappeared.
A small clock silently appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan's eyes.
The countdown began from 30 minutes.
After glancing through it, Gu Qing Shan smirked as killing intent surged in her mind.
Kill at least one villain?
Tch.
You're looking down on me.
Gu Qing Shan's gaze passed through the three Wraith Lords.
Considering the various protective techniques, I can only use the Six Paths Great Mountain sword.
In other words, I have to strike three times in a split second to kill them before they can react.
Gu Qing Shan pondered.
— — no, three strikes will bring three uncertainties.
One strike.
I'll kill all three of them without giving them any chance to react or attack, then …
Gu Qing Shan turned to the platform.
Reneedol was sitting there.
She was the one who killed Scarlet.
Scarlet.
Such a woman had died because of her.
Gu Qing Shan lowered her head. Her eyes were calm and the smile on her face became more humble. She walked to the center of the hall and bowed respectfully to Reneedol.
After that, he slowly walked towards the three Wraith Lords.
"What's the situation now?" He cupped his fists and asked as he walked.
"That thing is approaching the Wraith realm, I don't know if it actually discovered this place or just happened to be passing by. The angels have already prepared to intercept it" Wraith Lord Bai Grudge said.
Gu Qing Shan nodded and continued walking.
It was getting closer.
It was getting closer.
At that moment, Reneedol suddenly stood up and shouted, "Be careful, that thing is approaching the angels."
She waved her hand, and a scene appeared in the void of space.
Lin led the angels inside the Wraith realm's Causality Law barrier and silently waited.
In the distant dark tunnel, the sea of blood was boiling.
Reneedol and the three Wraith Lords held their breaths as they silently watched this.
Gu Qing Shan also stopped and looked at the light.
At a certain point.
His right hand lightly moved.
…
At another location.
Boss stared closely at the girl in front of him and asked in surprise: "You want to follow me?"
The girl nodded and replied: "I've already noticed my own limit, as well as the limit of this world — — only by following your excellency will I have a chance to improve even further — — I must follow your footsteps and explore the infinite worlds to improve myself, I hope to receive your permission"
Follow …
Boss fell silent.
He released his sensing ability and scanned the entire world.
This world was most likely a Cultivation-type world, so it was still at a very primitive level of martial arts.
They couldn't even break through the void of space.
If that's the case — — -
If this girl continues to stay in this world, she would only be wasting her time, and there's no telling when she would be able to leave this world.
That would be a waste of her talents.
No wonder she's so eager to follow me and leave this place.
Boss looked up at the gloomy sky.
In a daze, a certain scene from the past appeared in front of his eyes.
"Shroud, I will forever follow you"
"Really?"
"Hm, you are the strongest person in this world, please teach me your combat skills and power, I also want to become stronger, strong enough to be a match for you"
"Reneedol, you don't have to worry about this … but why do you want to become stronger?"
"Shroud … I don't want my fate to be dictated by others"
"Reneedol, in truth, no one can dictate your fate, and no one can restrict you — — but that's fine, I'll slowly teach you your combat skills"
…
Boss regained his senses and sighed: "It's been a long time since I've taught anyone anything"
The girl replied: "Your excellency the King of War, I'm willing to let go of everything in this world in order to become stronger and protect this world, please give me a chance"
Boss looked at her.
She looked straight into Boss's eyes with determination.
A line of glowing text appeared on the [Order] UI:
[Your excellency the King of War, the carrier of [Order] with the unique template: 'Destined Princess' is requesting to become your servant]
[Attention, this is a relationship witnessed by the Order itself, once confirmed, neither side can go back on their word]
"Are you willing to accept such a servant?"
Boss shook his head and muttered: "I don't know … what's the point of doing this again, I also … haven't found the meaning of my existence for a very long time"
The girl took a step forward and knelt down in front of him again.
She grabbed his hand and spoke word by word: "You saved my life, so I'll shamelessly ask you to accept me as your servant and help me on the path of becoming stronger — — because protecting those who are kind is the meaning of my existence"
"Today, I'm not only begging you for myself, I'm begging you for everyone in this world"
"Please save us."
Boss was shocked and didn't say anything for a long while.
At this point, lady Black Sea's voice resounded in his mind:
"Your excellency, there is another quest that you must complete immediately"
Boss said: "But she — –"
"You can take her with you, it won't be too late to decide later" lady Black Sea said.
"Then — –" Boss hesitated.
"I'm going to transport you!" lady Black Sea cut him off and said.
A screen of light flashed.
Boss and the girl disappeared from this world.
A breath's worth of time later.
Another world.
Boss and the girl appeared.
"Ah? Where is this place? "the girl asked nervously.
Everything around them was in ruins, every building on the ground had been destroyed, giving off a thick stench of corpses.
"I need to save someone" Boss explained.
"Save someone? Can I help? "the girl hurriedly asked.
"No, you're still too weak, just take care of yourself" Boss replied.
The girl bit her lip and lowered her head.
Boss glanced at her, then turned his gaze towards one of the ruins.
"The Life Flame is like a candle in the wind … seems like I need to hurry"
He murmured and pointed with his finger.
Rumble rumble rumble — — -
The entire ruins were lifted up by an invisible force, hovering in the air without even a speck of dust falling down.
Only to see two corpses kneeling underneath the ruins.
A man and a woman.
Both of them were already dead, but they were still sitting.
There was a baby hidden under them. His breathing was extremely weak, and he was in a coma.
"Ah …"
The girl wiped her tears, lightly placed the two corpses to one side and picked up the baby.
"Big sis Black Sea, I'll use everything I have left to exchange for medical supplies, please save this child!" the girl screamed hysterically.
Lady Black Sea softly told her: "The person most skilled in healing is standing in front of you"
The girl abruptly turned to Boss.
Boss received the baby, held her in one hand, flipped through the Book of Prophesized Destinies with the other, and chanted an incantation.
A gentle light fell on the baby's body, lingering for a long time.
The baby slowly woke up from her unconscious state, opened her eyes, and smiled at Boss.
She quickly fell asleep again.
"Ah? Why is she unconscious again, take a look! Take a look! "the girl grabbed Boss's hand and anxiously asked.
"Don't worry, she won't die, she's only asleep" Boss replied.
"Can you guarantee it?" the girl pouted.
Boss looked at her, then at the baby, and said: "I guarantee it"
The girl began to cry.
She looked at the baby in Boss's hand and sobbed: "Child, you no longer have a father and a mother, but because of their protection, you survived"
Saying so, she wiped her tears.
Boss silently watched this.
Lady Black Sea's voice came again: "Sir, this baby is also an extremely unique carrier of [Order], as soon as she was born, she awakened a unique [Order] template: Mortal Angel"
"But because the world has already been destroyed, she is too young to do anything, so she needs someone to save her in order to survive"
Boss silently nodded and looked at the baby in his arms.
Suddenly, the girl in front of him knelt down at his feet again.
"What is it?" Boss asked.
The girl sobbed and said: "Regardless of whether you allow me to follow you or not, please save this child and leave"
"But I can only save one person at a time, and I can only take one person with me" Boss hesitated.
"No matter how harsh the environment is, I can still survive, she can't, please take her with you" the girl resolutely said.
"Then I'll take her with me, you stay here" Boss said.
The girl nodded: "Very well"
Boss disappeared from where he stood.
Seeing him leave, the girl sighed in relief.
"Now I'm the only one left — — – it hurts …"
She wanted to stand up, but her legs were weak, so she could only continue to kneel on the ground to rest.
It was now that she remembered that she was still wounded all over.
"Not good, I still have things to do"
The girl muttered to herself.
Enduring the pain, she stood up, walked to one side, and used the broken spear to dig the ground.
Not too long after, a shallow hole was dug.
She placed the bodies of the man and woman inside and began to bury them.
Very quickly, a grave was completed.
At this point, it began to rain.
The girl was completely drenched, desperately trying to get out of the ruins.
She was limping, but even when she fell, she would quickly get back up.
"I need to hurry, the wind is too strong, the rain will probably get heavier at night"
The girl muttered to herself.
Plop — — -
She landed in the muddy ground again, and her whole body was muddy and muddy.
Using all of her strength, the girl managed to crawl out of the mud and lay down on the side, breathing heavily.
The wind and rain became stronger.
The rain washed away the mud on her face, as well as her tears. It was impossible to tell which was the rain and which was the tears.
The girl took a deep breath, roared, and stood up from the mud.
She faced the wind and rain and continued to move forward.
Suddenly.
A warm light descended from above, falling on her body.
Within the light, her wounds slowly healed as new power flowed through her body.
Almost immediately, her condition returned to its peak.
Boss appeared in front of her again, looking at her with a complicated expression.
The girl was a bit surprised, then looked at him: "Where's the child?"
"Don't worry, she's in a safe place" Boss gently replied.
It was now that the girl joyfully smiled.
"You're willing to take me as your servant?"
While asking, she piously knelt down.
But Boss also knelt down.
In the wind and rain, the two of them knelt to each other.
"Please get up — — - I can't accept this — -" the girl said helplessly.
Boss looked at her and suddenly laughed.
He seemed to have remembered something funny as he raised his head and laughed nonstop. His laughter was louder than the wind and rain, shaking the entire world.
Suddenly, he stopped laughing and spoke with a serious tone: "There's actually something that I've always kept in my heart, but never once did I think about it. It's fortunate that I met you"
"What is it?" the girl asked.
Boss explained: "Many years ago, I promised many people — — Divinities, mortals, pixies, giants, elves, as well as other living beings of various races. I promised them that as their king, I would forever protect them. They also swore to follow me, because I am their king"
The girl continued: "Having a powerful existence like yourself to protect them, they are very fortunate"
Boss went silent briefly.
"But because of a certain matter, I … forgot my promise"
The girl opened her eyes wide and looked at him.
"You … are so powerful, yet you still forget things?" she asked in confusion.
Boss made a self-deprecating expression and replied: "I've been muddle-headed for the past few years, even after going back once, I still can't remember who I am"
The intense wind blew, bringing with it rainwater that flowed down his cheeks.
But he still said, "Thanks to you, I remember that I once had so many things to look forward to, so many things to protect. In fact, in the end, there is only one thing that I can't do, but I finally understand that I actually don't have to do that thing, because that thing can't be forced."
Boundless light manifested from his body, reaching all the way to the sky, illuminating the boundless void, turning the entire world into a blazing sea of light.
He muttered: "I am the king of the world, the master of the Myriad Deities, the greatest above the Star Crown"
"I have many companions, many loved ones, and many people to protect, but because of a single matter, a single person, I was trapped here for countless years"
"The Deities of the past must have been very disappointed in me"
"I'm truly sorry"
"But I've woken up from my dream, from now on, I will not let my companions down again"
"There will no longer be anything that can trap my heart"
"I will not let you down again!"
Oom — — -
Boundless light fell from the sky and landed behind him, forming a glorious light that was filled with divine majesty.
Grand and majestic, all things in the world were beneath his feet.
All the rain stopped.
In the wind.
He stood up, smiling as he reached his hand out: "In this era, you are my first follower — — are you willing to stand with me and protect all of my companions, as well as the living beings who are suffering?"
The girl took his hand with both of her hands.
"I am willing to follow by your side without regret" she resolutely declared.
