The room was completely silent.
The Sovereign of Pain was sitting on his throne, silently looking at the insect's corpse on the ground.
Wasn't this guy supposed to be strong?
Why didn't he run away?
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts quickly turned and shouted:
"What are you pretending for, get up"
The insect's corpse trembled a bit and barely managed to stand up.
"… I knew it was you" the insect said.
"If you can't even tell this much, I'll be very disappointed" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Damn it, a bunch of Void Lords suddenly appeared and attacked me at full power, I couldn't hold on at all" the insect angrily said.
Its presence was reduced by more than half.
Sure enough, death affected it greatly, but it couldn't completely destroy it.
Gu Qing Shan silently sighed.
I should've thought of this earlier.
— — -the mastermind originally wanted to borrow Gu Qing Shan's hand to kill the insect.
Although Gu Qing Shan appeared in time and understood everything, she was immediately 'killed' by the Sovereign of Pain.
Then, the mastermind's plan wouldn't change.
He still wanted to kill the insect, that's why a bunch of Void Lords surrounded him — — -
The insect was dead.
"I can save you once, but I can't save you every time, what do you plan to do next?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The insect replied: "I won't drag you down, I'll just leave and hide in a place where no one knows where I am"
Gu Qing Shan lazily replied: "You're now much weaker, what if another group of people tries to kill you? Do you really think you can run away? If I'm not here and the other Void Lords actually eat you, do you think you're strong enough to stay as a parasite in their stomachs? "
The series of questions caused the insect to be stunned.
He slowly realized.
— — -that's right, the other party wants me dead, and with so many Void Lords at once, I have nowhere to go.
"Do you have any suggestions?" the insect asked.
"Don't tell me any suggestions yet, I need to know something first" Gu Qing Shan said.
"What is it? I'll make it clear first, there are some things I won't tell you "the insect appeared very cautious.
Gu Qing Shan scolded, "Idiot! You've already been sold on the streets as dried goods, and you're still pretending to be vigilant in front of me? Are you afraid that I will sell you on the streets again? Or are you afraid that my cooking skills aren't up to standard and I can't make a high-quality protein dinner? "
After being scolded, Buggy's vigor was completely gone. He muttered in a low voice, "We travel in the void, it's only right for us to be cautious."
Gu Qing Shan ignored its explanation and asked directly, "Why does the guy hiding behind the scenes want you dead?"
That was the most important thing!
It was a terrifying existence that could control all the Void Masters and had miraculous powers. It could almost be considered the top existence in the entire Void.
However, such a person was determined to kill the Eternal Thought Snatcher.
There must be a reason behind this!
The insect crouched on the ground and said in confusion: "I don't know either. I've always been careful and vigilant, running faster than anyone else at the slightest sign of trouble, otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to survive in the void for so long, who knew that today — —"
"You didn't feel anything out of the ordinary?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The insect thought for a long while, then replied: "If there was anything out of the ordinary … it would be when I began to plan to take over the Samsara, I felt that I would run into some danger"
"You want to take over the Samsara with your level of strength?" Gu Qing Shan scoffed.
The insect angrily shouted: "Huang Quan Devil King, if you hadn't restricted my strength through a battle to the death at that time, you would have been weaker than me!"
"Didn't you use the battle to the death against me to your own advantage? What happened in the end? "Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I — — -"
The insect couldn't say anything else.
Gu Qing Shan smiled.
That's true.
Everything happened too quickly, I didn't think I would've become a Void Master.
At first, it was because I became a Miracle Card and had the power of miracles that these unimaginable things happened.
After that, I used the giant corpse's [Mystery of All Beings Equal], combined with the power of Primal Chaos, as well as the Saint's Overseer's help, it was thanks to the combination of these three powers that I was able to establish myself within the Miracle Card deck.
Everything that happened was unimaginable.
Looking back, it felt like a dream.
"If it's related to the Samsara … then you might be able to threaten that guy with this" Gu Qing Shan analyzed.
The insect replied: "But I can't win — —"
Gu Qing Shan cut it off: "You and I both know this, it seems you have other secrets that can make that guy wary"
The insect replied: "Secrets? What secrets, I don't even know how to leave the Void "
"After leaving the Void, where do you want to go?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Where? Ahahaha! " The insect laughed sorrowfully: "I don't know how to leave, nor do I know where to go — — - all of my abilities were developed by myself, the so-called evolution is nothing more than the most basic evolution of my instincts"
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
This kind of situation is indeed worthy of sympathy.
In the past, just to learn a basic swordsmanship, I couldn't help but go through all sorts of hardships and dangers to gather enough spirit stones.
For this insect to be able to grow to such a level without any effort, it must be an extraordinary insect.
Wait a minute …
Gu Qing Shan followed this train of thought.
If this insect is so powerful and has a secret connection to the Samsara, why don't I keep it with me?
That way, it would be able to help me fight, as well as influence the Samsara at a certain point in time.
Right now, it can't leave.
But that doesn't mean it will help me do anything.
How do I convince it?
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and sighed: "Fine, don't leave just yet, stay here with me for a while, at least you'll be able to survive"
"Very well, that's the only thing I can do for now" the insect replied.
Gu Qing Shan clapped her hand and spoke with a hint of killing intent: "That bastard didn't just want to kill you, he's also been using me, even sending the Void Lords to kill me — — it seems I'll have to investigate the Void Lords' secrets, or perhaps even go to the Samsara, I'll have to get my revenge sooner or later!"
He stood up and left.
"Wait a minute, if you go to work, what about me?" the insect hurriedly asked.
"Ah — – just be an object, I still have other things to do, you can stay here by yourself" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He strode out of the room.
"Wait a minute — – I'll stay in this house? What do you mean by object? What kind of object am I? "the insect called out.
Gu Qing Shan shrugged: "Whatever, no one's going to come to my place anyways. You can just stay here and be a sculpture, a specimen, a painting, anything is fine"
The insect angrily shouted: "I'm a great Eternal existence, the one and only King of Insects in the legends, and you want me to be an insect sculpture in your house?"
Gu Qing Shan didn't even turn around and replied: "Then what do you want? I'll still have to participate in various battles later on — — in short, it'll be very dangerous, I can't bring you along "
"Why can't you bring me along?" the insect shouted.
Done.
There are still a few minor issues, if the insect can solve them by himself — — -
Gu Qing Shan turned around and spoke seriously: "Just now, everyone saw that you were already dead, do you have a way to appear with me without drawing suspicion?"
The insect scoffed: "I naturally have a way"
Gu Qing Shan smiled: "Why aren't you resting and coming with me?"
"You're not the only one who wants revenge" the insect coldly replied.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then nodded: "Fine"
— — -speaking of which, if this insect was a coward who didn't have the courage to take revenge, he would only be a burden on the battlefield.
If that's the case, Gu Qing Shan wouldn't be able to stand up to him.
"Come, tell me, how are you going to appear with me?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The insect asked: "Do you have a weapon? I can actually pretend to be a weapon "
Gu Qing Shan shook her head: "A weapon is no good, my weapon is a newly forged Card Weapon, the one who did this is a Void Lord, as well as a Causality Weaponsmith, so it'll be easy for him to notice"
The insect froze, then asked: "Then what about armor?"
Gu Qing Shan looked at it with an indescribable look in his eyes.
I have a full set of armor from the True Old Demon King, but this armor came from the Saint's Realm, given to me by the Overseer of Infinite Worlds.
I can't wear this armor.
— — as the Sovereign of Pain, if I immediately put on a set of Saint's Realm armor after getting beaten up by the Saint's Realm, wouldn't that be telling everyone that I've betrayed them?
Then … I should make the insect my armor?
Wouldn't that be bullying it too much?
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan hesitantly asked: "My armor? That'll probably be a very difficult thing to do … "
"Don't look down on me, I already felt that you were looking down on me" the insect replied.
Gu Qing Shan sincerely replied: "I'm not looking down on you, in truth, when I fight — — -"
The insect cut her off in displeasure and coldly spoke: "Huang Quan Devil King, you need to remember one thing — — I am the great Insect King who has lived for countless years, do not use your shallow knowledge to judge an existence like me — — - never, ever, understand?"
Gu Qing Shan didn't say anything else.
… Fine.
If it wants to die, then let it.
The insect crouched on the ground, its limbs gave off a series of cracking noises, slowly twisted into a ball, then unfolded to form a unique armor.
— — -this was a colorful, sturdy armor that glowed with the unique glow of a carapace.
"Alright, you can wear my armor and fight"
The insect's voice resounded from the armor.
As Gu Qing Shan lightly placed her hand on the armor, lines of crimson text appeared in front of her eyes:
[The highest echelon has noticed the current situation and is currently making some discreet changes to your previous covenant]
[— — With the Order as the catalyst, Primal Chaos as the covenant, unleash the brand of Eternal Destruction, ensuring that this armor will never be able to betray you]
[Attention: This brand cannot be sensed by the Eternal Thought Stealer, only you know]
