"Brother Gu, I didn't think you'd be this strong"
Zhao Lu clicked his tongue.
Gu Qing Shan recalled what he said and replied: "Don't waste words, go get the tools, we're going to bring the demon beast back to camp"
The ferocious shadow stuck close to his back, staring at him, observing his every move.
Zhao Lu gathered his courage, looked at the demon beast again and happily said: "Holy shit, such a big one, it'll be enough for us to eat for a whole month"
Gu Qing Shan nodded in agreement.
Zhao Lu quickly ran back to the camp, went to the kitchen to prepare a large net, a long rope, a boning knife, and other tools.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and waited.
The black shadow of the evil spirit also stood still. Occasionally, it would stretch out one or two of its long limbs and slightly stretch out in all directions.
Is it checking Zhao Lu's situation?
Or is it checking the current state of war?
Gu Qing Shan silently thought.
Suddenly.
The demon seemed to have noticed something, abruptly parted the water around it and swam towards a certain direction.
It's gone.
— — -what happened?
Gu Qing Shan's mind focused.
A second later, the turbulent flow of time manifested in the void of space.
Gu Qing Shan ignored it, his expression didn't change, only silently waiting for Zhao Lu to finish packing so that they could deal with the demon beast's body.
The water moved.
The figure of a slender mermaid quietly appeared.
Fei Ying.
She looked over with a worried expression.
"Gu Qing Shan, the entire River of Time is under the demon's surveillance, there's no other way" Fei Ying asked.
Without waiting for Gu Qing Shan to answer, she continued: "Just now, Liu Lin's group lured the demon away, so I took this chance to ask for your opinion — — our Time Clan is preparing to fight against the demon in the River of Time, fighting while running away, that'll help relieve some of the pressure on you"
Gu Qing Shan still didn't look at her.
His gaze slowly moved down, looking at his wrist.
A black thread appeared from his wrist, silently flew out, crossed the barrier of the world, and directly attached itself to Fei Ying's wrist.
This is a normal Fate Connection Thread.
In other words — — -
This Fei Ying really is Fei Yue, not an imposter.
Gu Qing Shan finally spoke up: "You shouldn't have done anything"
Fei Ying was a bit surprised and asked: "You're already being watched, if we don't do anything, would we just watch you — — -"
Gu Qing Shan cut her off: "What do I want to accomplish by returning to this era?"
Fei Ying replied: "To buy time for the other you"
"That's right, even if the evil fiends want to lock onto me, I only need to make sure that I'm completely synchronized with the other 'me' to stall for time and achieve my goal"
Crimson Shadow thought about it for a moment and realized that she had been tricked. She couldn't help but say in a low voice: "But you've lost all of your powers, and it's very dangerous for you to be in such a situation. If you're discovered, you could be killed at any moment, or even turned into a demon by them — — there's no turning back!"
"t" t "she" Fei "t"'t.'t "Ying't" "Fei" t "
"Why!?" "Fei Ying almost shouted.
Gu Qing Shan calmly replied: "The Time clan appearing at this time period might mean that this time period is different from the others — — - after all, you're the most familiar with the River of Time, so the evil creatures would definitely pay more attention to where you appeared, and they would also pay more attention to my every move"
Fei Ying froze.
"Hurry!" Gu Qing Shan sped up her speech and continued: "Go to the other timelines a few times, try to make the evil creatures think that the Time clan is trying to find out where they are, not trying to cover up the situation here"
Fei Ying immediately said: "I'll tell Liu Lin right away — — - but you — — -"
She looked at Gu Qing Shan with deep worry in her eyes.
Gu Qing Shan smiled and said: "Fei Yue, we've known each other for quite some time now, haven't we?"
"Since the time of Void City … it has indeed been quite some time" Fei Ying replied.
"Have you ever seen me being slaughtered without retaliating?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Fei Ying went silent for a brief moment, then muttered: "The evil creatures have already defeated all the Combatants of the Higher Dimension, the only ones left are the Samsara and the Era of the Past that hibernated in Primal Chaos … and you're currently stalling for time in the closed loop of time, and you still want to retaliate?"
At this point, Zhao Lu came out of the kitchen with a bunch of things in his arms. Gu Qing Shan smiled and nodded at him.
"That's right, let's teach them a lesson so that they won't continue to act so arrogantly" he casually said.
"Are you confident?" Fei Ying asked.
"Haven't you noticed?" Gu Qing Shan asked in return.
"Noticed what?" Fei Ying asked.
"The initiative is slowly shifting to our hands — — - the evil creatures are now forced to follow my and my other self's footsteps, so when we take advantage of their weakness, their actions will become a trap of their own making — — - this will slowly become the turning point of the entire war" Gu Qing Shan explained.
"So that's how it is, I finally understand"
Fei Ying stared at him for a brief moment before showing an expression of relief: "I understand, we'll retreat right away. Be careful, don't kill too many evil creatures, don't go too far"
"Hm, don't worry" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Fei Ying slowly retreated, turning into a blurred figure of light that scattered into the water and retreated into the distance.
She quickly moved forward through the water, quickly reached a murky undercurrent, then followed the flow of the undercurrent to reach the temporary hiding spot of the Time clan.
Liu Lin and the other merfolk of the Time clan were already waiting here.
Fei Ying told them what Gu Qing Shan told them.
Everyone fell silent.
"… I want to ask, what exactly is he going to do? How is he going to retaliate? What does taking the initiative mean? What does it mean to trap the evil creatures in their own making? "Liu Lin asked in confusion.
"I don't know" Fei Ying replied.
Liu Lin was even more confused and asked: "Didn't you tell him that you understood just now? You even told him not to kill too many evil creatures? "
Fei Ying answered without changing her expression: "I only said those words to show that I can talk to him normally about how to fight against the evil creatures, not like a pig that only knows how to listen to him"
Liu Lin chuckled and shook his head.
Everyone silently listened and also chuckled. No one blamed Fei Ying.
Because …
Everyone didn't understand.
Liu Lin spoke up: "This person's thoughts aren't something we can understand, but he's right, we shouldn't have appeared — — -"
"Let's go, we'll cover for him in another timeline, this way the evil creatures won't notice him at this time"
"Yes!" the merfolk replied.
…
Gu Qing Shan took the bone-paring knife from Zhao Lu's hand.
"Why didn't you bury the pit of corpses in front of the camp? After all, we're all comrades "he asked.
Zhao Lu grumbled: "The corporal didn't care at all before, what can a cook like me do? If I leave the camp alone to dig a pit and run into some kind of monster, I'll be dead for sure "
Gu Qing Shan patted his shoulder and said: "Once we get the demon beasts in here, you come with me to bury the corpses"
— — -even if the evil creatures haven't returned yet, he still maintained his original posture and said the words he should have said.
Seeing Zhao Lu hesitating to say anything, Gu Qing Shan continued: "The stench of blood in the pit of corpses is too thick, if a powerful demon were to come and see through the camp's camouflage formation, both you and I will die"
"Then, alright!" Zhao Lu replied.
A gigantic shadow descended from the sky, silently enveloping Gu Qing Shan's back, turning into the evil creature.
It's finally back.
This time, it seems to be even more nervous and focused.
Whenever Gu Qing Shan took a step, it would immediately follow, almost inseparable.
Tch, the Time Clan really is a busybody, but they're also doing this out of goodwill, I just hope that they can quickly go to another timeline.
While thinking that, Gu Qing Shan still kept a smile on his face as he followed Zhao Lu.
In front of his eyes, lines of glowing text quickly appeared.

Gu Qing Shan silently asked in his mind: "Chicken Grandpa?"
Chicken Grandpa's voice came: "I'm here, I'll say it first, I'm not good at fighting, let alone fighting evil creatures"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Not fighting, just like last time, help me bring a message to 'me' in Primal Chaos"
"That's fine, that's what I do — — – what message do you want me to bring?" Chicken Grandpa asked.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly stopped.
As Zhao Lu was about to step out of the camp, he was pulled back by his collar, almost falling flat on his back.
Zhao Lu angrily asked: "Brother Gu, what are you doing?"
Gu Qing Shan covered his mouth, running back several dozen feet in a single breath before stopping at the other end of the camp.
Gu Qing Shan then pressed him back into the mud, then also crawled down, rubbing mud all over his body.
And then — —
A gigantic foot that took up the entire field of vision landed on the ground.
The dense forest outside of the camp was directly flattened.
Looking up from the foot, the thick leg went all the way into the black clouds, no end in sight.
A Faceless Giant!
This demon finally came!
Gu Qing Shan laid in the mud to catch his breath, then finally had time to reply to Chicken Grandpa:
"Bring Fusi here, I'm about to flip the table"
