The Blood Sea.
Two stools were propped up on a floating wooden board.
Gu Qing Shan was sitting on one of the stools with a fishing rod in her hand, reattached the bait to the hook, and cast it into the water.
"Ah — –"
He let out a big yawn, and his face showed that he was bored to death.
Sitting next to him was a middle-aged man with a rather imposing manner and a very cool and handsome appearance.
The man was writing something on a piece of paper in his hand.
"That's why you're trapped here?" the man asked.
"That's right, Shifu said that the only place I can rely on is the Blood Sea. After I settle down in the Blood Sea for a while, my connection to the world will deepen, only then will I be able to do other things" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"This is really boring."
The man shook his head and sighed, quickly writing something down.
"I know right — — I just killed a historical recorder not too long ago, why do you still dare to come looking for me?" Gu Qing Shan glanced at the man.
"Killed one?" The man appeared cautious and asked further: "That can't be, I'm the only one who recorded your deeds, what was that person's name?"
"I think he was called Yan — — what, I killed him before he could write his name down" Gu Qing Shan recalled.
"Ah — – so it was Yan Heng!" the man suddenly realized and continued writing.
This time, it was Gu Qing Shan's turn to be curious.
"You really don't care about the death of your colleague?" he asked.
"That's a pirated version, I'm the original recorder" the man answered without changing his expression.
"So that's why, what's your name?" Gu Qing Shan sighed.
"My name is Yan Huo"
Saying so, the man put the pen and paper away, then took out two bowls of instant noodles from the void of space. He gave one to Gu Qing Shan, then opened the other and happily ate.
"Do you have anything to drink?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I don't" the man answered.
The two of them quickly ate the noodles.
"By the way, during the last battle, why did you interact so much with Qin Xiaolou?" the man asked while eating.
Gu Qing Shan explained: "He's an Apostle of the pixies, I believe he knew that Shifu is the Skill Master, so when you wrote the beginning of Chapter 119, he was a bit nervous and couldn't help but look at Shifu"
"How dangerous." The man sighed.
"My heart was in my throat at the time. Luckily, Master was very calm. I immediately took over the conversation and nipped it in the bud," Gu Qing Shan said.
The two of them looked at each other.
"Fairies …" They sighed together.
"During the decisive battle against the Soul Shrieker, they also almost messed things up — — it's not that they're bad people, it's just that they can't hide things, especially when it comes to other people" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He passed the empty bowl to the man.
"You wash the dishes."
"Alright, after I'm done, we'll continue to revise some details …"
"Okay." Gu Qing Shan picked up the fishing rod again.
A few moments later.
The man washed his hands, dried them, then took out a pen and paper again.
Seeing how focused Gu Qing Shan was, he couldn't help but ask: "This is the Blood Sea, do you really think you'll be able to catch something from here?"
Gu Qing Shan abruptly swung her fishing rod.
A fish landed on the wooden board, flopped a few times, then turned into a Card.
The man picked up the card and looked at it. There was a picture of a person with a sincere expression on his face, who was in a praying posture.
"Card: Truth."
[The person who receives this Card must answer a single question, and tell the truth]
[Side effect of using the Card: The user will forget what they've said]
Gu Qing Shan glanced at it, then at the man.
Only to see that the Recorder of History's expression had become stiff.
— — -as if he was waiting for a question.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and asked: "How did you describe me?"
The man couldn't help but answer: "You're too handsome, so when I'm recording history, I almost never write about your appearance from the front, lest I lose out to you"
As soon as he said so, the man returned to normal.
"What happened just now?" he doubtfully asked.
"It's nothing"
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan once again set up her fishing rod.
The man was still doubtful.
Gu Qing Shan ignored him and continued to fish.
A while later.
Gu Qing Shan didn't turn around and asked:
"Right, when you were recording history … did you seriously describe my appearance?"
The man chuckled and patted him on the shoulder. "Boy, you're almost as handsome as me. That's why when I was recording the history, I didn't describe your appearance much in order to avoid distracting people. I only wrote a little about you in chapter 90 of the first volume."
"So that's why" Gu Qing Shan squinted her eyes.
"What? You don't believe me? "the man shrugged.
"Those who lie to me, no matter which world they're in, I'll find them and kill them" Gu Qing Shan casually replied.
The man wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
Gu Qing Shan still didn't look at him and continued: "When a person is nervous, their hands will shake, sweat, their face will blush, their breathing will quicken, and their heartbeat will quicken. You seem to fit that description — — is there something you're feeling guilty about?"
The man replied: "Ahahaha, there's something I forgot to tell you"
Gu Qing Shan furrowed her brows: "What is it?"
The man explained: "After your Shifu returns to the real world, she will tell everything that happened in the void to the real Combatants … I heard that after Su Cher, Anna, Zhi Luo, Li Yang, Fei Yue, and Ning Yuechan saw the memories of the void, they all wanted to find you"
Gu Qing Shan: "…"
The man continued: "When a person is nervous, their hands will shake, sweat, their face will blush, their breathing will quicken, and their heartbeat will quicken. You seem to fit that description — — is there something you're feeling guilty about?"
Gu Qing Shan slowly turned around to look at the man.
…
Five minutes later.
The man with a swollen face was scribbling on a piece of paper:
"Gu Qing Shan smirked and muttered: 'I didn't want to use this — — -'
Sha!
He did a cross in the air! "
Gu Qing Shan didn't notice this at all. He stared at the empty sea of blood for a while before asking:
"Recorder of history, do you think the real people will accept this memory?"
The man put the book away and spoke with a serious expression: "There's actually a concept here that I need to explain to you clearly"
"Please go ahead" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"No matter how many parallel worlds the evil fiends create, they must still use the original world as the blueprint, and this world isn't the void" the man explained.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a few moments and understood.
"There's nothing in the void, so those parallel worlds naturally wouldn't originate from the void" he said.
"That's right" the man clapped his hands.
"Then … which was the original world?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Just like your Shifu — — - in order to defeat the evil fiends, all heroic spirits have gathered around the technique" the man replied.
Gu Qing Shan's eyes slowly lit up.
"You mean, the people around me … are all real?" he asked.
"Yes, but they don't know about it, and after everything is over, they won't remember" the man replied.
"Then …"
"I'm guessing that after they find out about everything, they'll definitely come looking for you. Fine, I'll finish the book today, you can take a look yourself"
The man tore off a piece of paper from the book and tossed it into the void of space.
That piece of paper turned into a screen of light that displayed the scene of a certain world.
Only to see that a grand celebration was taking place in that world.
Every Combatant of the infinite worlds had gathered to celebrate the victory of the living beings against the evil fiends, a grand event that would surely be recorded in the annals of countless civilizations.
Xie Dao Ling stood at the very top and raised her voice: "Everyone, please be silent"
Everyone went silent.
Xie Dao Ling smiled and spoke: "The battle in the void of space lasted for countless years, so many things happened during that time … unfortunately, none of you remember them"
She formed a hand seal.
Balls of light flew out from her hands and landed in front of each of the experts.
"These are the memories of the battle in the void of space, as long as it's related to the final sequence, I've recorded them all"
"As for whether or not you want to see it …"
"That's your freedom"
As soon as she said so, everyone appeared hesitant.
Indeed, the living beings had undoubtedly won this grand victory.
But why did Xie Dao Ling choose to manifest these memories?
Everyone was hesitant.
Suddenly, someone reached their hand out first.
It was a beautiful young girl with long crimson hair.
"I feel like … I've forgotten something that I shouldn't have …"
The young girl muttered and caught the projection.
The projection flickered and slowly unfolded in her mind, manifesting various scenes from the past.
She saw a young man.
The young man stood in front of her and spoke with a serious expression: "Scarlet, are you willing to give up your support techniques and become the representative of Death?"
And she said — — -
"I once wanted to be the leader of a group, but now it seems that I'm too weak …"
…
"Of course I'm willing to form a covenant with the Overlord of Death. This is my chance to survive, as well as the source of my power to protect everyone" she muttered.
"Very well, then let us begin"
Saying so, the young man suddenly took out a bottle of liquor.
"What is this?" she asked in surprise.
…
"What kind of liquor is this?" she asked curiously.
"I call it the Flames of Death" the young man casually replied.
"What a great liquor!"
"Did you think it was for free? Hurry up and see if your Law of Death has improved or not! "
"I'm sorry, I forgot!" she blushed and said.
…
"Rhode, you just said that aside from defense, I need offensive power as well"
"That's right"
"I've thought it through. Aside from the two defensive powers, I'll also create an offensive power"
"If that's the case … then my star won't be called Crab"
"I want to call it Scorpio"
…
The crimson long girl silently watched the scenes in front of her.
Until.
That familiar bar.
Until — —
All the lights and shadows in the images were extinguished.
History had become a thing of the past, while the young man was left alone in the Blood Sea.
The girl stayed silent for a long time.
Finally.
She slowly walked in front of Xie Dao Ling.
"Hm? The Undying Divine Flame, Protector of the Dragons of the infinite worlds, Envoy of Nirvana, how may I help you? "Xie Dao Ling smiled and asked.
The girl didn't avoid Xie Dao Ling's gaze and asked with a weak but firm voice:
"… If I want to go to the Blood Sea … how should I go there?"
