"Go, I'll wait for you here"
Anna lowered her head, her crimson hair hiding her expression.
"Brother, there's only 5 minutes left before you go on stage" Jang Young-ho helplessly called out.
"Then wait for me here" Gu Qing Shan said to Anna and quickly left.
After he left, a shadow came in from outside the door.
The shadow turned into Feng Huo De, asking: "Your Highness, how is it going?"
"I have to stay by his side, you might have to return to the Holy Empire yourself" Anna answered.
"Hm, ok, what!? Please say that again, Your Highness!? "Feng Huo De shouted in shock.
"Huo De, the Holy Empire's remaining forces will depend on you, I want to follow him" Anna said very seriously.
"Your Highness, the kingdom's bloodline needs to continue, but isn't this a bit too early — — - but then again, how many princes are you planning to have?"
"Go back to the Holy Empire, right now"
On the other side.
Gu Qing Shan and Jang Young-ho quickly walked towards the elevator.
"Who was the last speaker?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"It was the President, he just finished speaking, he seems to be feeling a bit unwell, so he went back to his room upstairs to rest" Jang Young-ho answered.
"Is that so?" Gu Qing Shan was a bit confused.
What's wrong with the President? He silently thought.
"Have you thought about what you're going to say?" Jang Young-ho asked.
"There are more and more sea beasts coming ashore, the Man Killer Fiends are getting stronger and stronger, facing such a situation, I only need to say the truth" Gu Qing Shan stopped thinking and answered.
"Hm, there's no need to be so nervous, I just saw a few political friends I'm familiar with, I've already told them, if anything happens in the conference, they'll take care of it"
"Got it"
The two of them were talking as they walked. Suddenly, their expressions changed at the same time and they stood rooted to the ground.
The ground was shaking.
Bam!
The moment they stopped in their tracks, a dull thud came from outside.
This sound seemed to have raised the curtain.
Somewhere on the upper floor of the International Convention Center, a huge uproar broke out.
It was as if something shocking had happened. Everyone in the meeting couldn't help but exclaim.
"What happened? This is a gunshot — could it be an assassination? "Jang Young-ho said calmly.
"Can you tell what type of attack it is?" Gu Qing Shan released her Divine Sense to observe the surroundings and quickly asked.
"It sounds like an electromagnetic anti-material gun. This kind of weapon has twice the range of a traditional sniper rifle, and its lethality is astonishing," Jang Young-ho said.
"It's too far away from us" Gu Qing Shan said.
The two of them looked out of the French windows.
Dozens of Combat Mechs roared and rushed out of the conference center, heading in a certain direction.
Then, groups of soldiers appeared out of nowhere and surrounded the International Convention Center.
A small number of officers quickly chased after the Mobile Mechs.
Looking at their speed, they were not slower than the Mobile Mechs.
These were all powerful professionals, special soldiers with very high ranks in the army.
A loud 'wu wu' sound came from the sky.
A large Interstellar Warship slowly appeared, hovering above the conference center.
Three squadrons of combat shuttles came down from the Interstellar Warship, quickly heading in the same direction.
"Impartial Goddess, what happened?" Gu Qing Shan asked in a low voice.
[The President was assassinated, we're currently searching for the culprit] Impartial Goddess answered.
"What!?" Jang Young-ho exclaimed in shock.
"How is the President?" Gu Qing Shan quickly asked.
[Not sure, all the surveillance devices in the conference center were affected by a strong electromagnetic interference within a few seconds, I didn't have time to issue a warning] Impartial Goddess answered.
"Where's the President?"
[The top floor's lounge]
Suddenly, a figure quickly jumped up from the glass window.
This person's movements were light and efficient, with only a single tap on the glass, he was already flying up.
In his hands, there were two short knives.
With just a glance, this person had already jumped past this floor.
[Unable to identify identity] Impartial Goddess quickly answered.
Boom!
A second later, Gu Qing Shan flew through the glass like a cannonball, stopping in mid-air.
The Night Rain appeared in his hand.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Ten arrows drew nimble curves in the air as they streaked across the sky.
That wasn't the end, Gu Qing Shan put the bow away, took out a sword from the void of space, shook his body and flew up along the wall.
"He … can actually fly …" Jang Young-ho stood there in shock, muttering.
Above Gu Qing Shan, the man returned, swinging his daggers to knock the arrows away one by one.
The arrows contained too much power, even with his agility and agility, although he managed to block all of them, his arms were still numb from the impact.
At this point, Gu Qing Shan arrived.
The Earth Sword simply swung in the air.
The man tried to block with his daggers, but was cut in half along with his daggers.
A cloud of blood exploded in front of the glass window, as the body fell down in two different directions.
[Diagonally upwards, sir] Impartial Goddess' voice answered.
Gu Qing Shan looked up, sure enough, another hitman was crawling up the window using both hands and feet.
Gu Qing Shan sheathed his sword, took out his bow, and drew an arrow.
[Great Shot]!
[Riding Wind]!
[Bombardment]!
The arrow was like a heavy cannon, blasting the man and the entire wall into smithereens.
"Are there any more?" Gu Qing Shan asked in a low voice.
[There's none outside, but there's one inside, currently approaching the top floor] Impartial Goddess answered.
Gu Qing Shan jumped through an open window, heading straight for the top floor.
I have to make it in time!
Gritting his teeth, he ran as fast as he could.
Gu Qing Shan's figure turned into a grey shadow, quickly climbing up the stairs. Along the way, the clothes of the passersby fluttered in the wind caused by the grey shadow, but when they looked back, the grey shadow was already gone.
[Full beard, sunglasses, cigarette in hand, military green jacket, grey pants, black leather shoes, already on the 11th floor] Impartial Goddess described.
Gu Qing Shan rushed to the 11th floor.
His inner sight had already locked onto the hitman.
The hitman was a top-notch hitman among the hitmen this time, as soon as Gu Qing Shan appeared, he immediately felt threatened.
He quickly turned around.
What he saw was a figure leaping towards him.
This figure was so young, his face was cold, only calm and focused, without a hint of excitement or violence.
That was the last thing he saw.
A sharp pain came, and the world turned dark.
Blood splattered everywhere.
Gu Qing Shan sheathed his sword.
The hitman was cut into pieces by the sword qi on his sword, as he died, two blooms of frost appeared on both his hands.
Obviously, he died just as he was about to unleash his attack.
Gu Qing Shan didn't look at the result and quickly asked: "Any more?"
[Nothing for now] Impartial Goddess answered.
"President …" Gu Qing Shan wielded his sword and rushed to the top floor.
When he arrived, several secret service members were already knocking on the door.
"Hurry hurry hurry!"
"Use more force!"
"Damn it!"
They roared.
The door to the top floor was still closed. This was the most VIP lounge, so the security on the door was extremely tight. But who would've thought that it would backfire on them.
At this time, another team of secret service members and a doctor also arrived.
They exchanged glances, then locked their gazes on Gu Qing Shan.
After that, the secret service members' expressions changed, obviously receiving information about Gu Qing Shan's identity. Their gazes on him relaxed.
"Step aside, I'll do it"
Gu Qing Shan wielded the Earth Sword and was about to attack, but suddenly stopped.
A sound came from inside the door.
A few moments later, the door opened.
The President came out unscathed, his expression calm.
"Sir President!"
The person in charge of the secret service gestured for the medical personnel to come forward.
"I'm fine, go and arrest him" the President waved his hand and said.
The door closed behind him.
The medical personnel didn't back down, aimed a few microdevices at the President and began to collect data.
A few seconds later.
"The President is unscathed" the medical personnel announced.
— — -thank goodness he's fine!
Everyone's hearts calmed down.
Gu Qing Shan put the Healing pill back into his Inventory Bag and sighed in relief.
This President was one of the few people that Gu Qing Shan respected, so he really didn't want anything to happen to him.
"Sir, do you need us to deal with the inside?" the special service member asked.
"It's only a broken window, I'm currently handling some important work inside, so it's not convenient for you to go in right now. Furthermore, I'm fine myself, you can come back later to investigate"
The President's expression was cold, his tone cold: "Trying to assassinate someone in an international conference like this, you must catch this assassin"
"Yes, Your Excellency," a few special agents responded.
More special service members came, seeing the President was unscathed, they all sighed in relief.
A special service member in charge stepped out to give orders, leaving a few people to guard the scene, while the rest went to guard the main roads.
The President looked at Gu Qing Shan and gently spoke: "Qing Shan, I'm sorry to have made you worry"
"It's good that you're fine"
Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight and scanned through the man's body.
There were no wounds, his body was perfectly fine.
Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.
"Since something like this happened, I'm afraid the official conference will have to stop for now …" the President contemplated.
After thinking for a while, he suddenly said: "Let us have an informal private meeting, you, me, the Fuxi Emperor, and the Holy Empire's representative"
"I'm fine with that, I'll go with your arrangements" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Very well, then you can go and rest first, I'll contact you later" the President said.
Gu Qing Shan nodded and left.
When he was out of sight, the President turned to the other special service members and gave them orders.
They were all a bit surprised.
Normally, the President doesn't care about safety, but today he's the exact opposite, personally making arrangements.
But then again, this was an international conference held right in front of his own house, and yet the President was assassinated in broad daylight!
The President must be furious right now, so it's only reasonable for him to do something like this himself.
Of course, the people in charge wouldn't do anything stupid, so they seriously followed the President's orders and began to deal with other matters.
It wasn't until there were only a few special service members left at the door that the President returned to his room.
