The capital's outskirts.
Gu Qing Shan and the black cloaked skeleton stood facing each other in the air.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly noticed lines of glowing text appearing in his retina.
[Quest completed]
[You've stopped the Fuxi Emperor's next step in his plan, the human world's situation has been stabilized, the Frozen Hell's spread has been greatly slowed]
[Quest reward: Huang Quan's reinforcements have been informed of the human world's situation and are now speeding up]
[Description: Huang Quan's reinforcements will soon arrive in the human world to help you fight against the Frozen Hell]
Gu Qing Shan clenched her fist tightly and calmed down.
The Quest is done.
This means there aren't too many deaths.
Who would've thought the war would be stopped with the Fuxi Emperor's death.
Seems like quite a few people are doing everything they can to stop this calamity.
He turned his gaze to the opposite side.
The black cloaked skeleton was sitting there, placing the Emperor's skull on the side of the ice throne.
As soon as the skull was placed, frost immediately crawled up the skull and enveloped it.
The ice throne began to emit a frigid air.
The black cloaked skeleton patted the throne in satisfaction and muttered: 「 Descendants of my bloodline, you've all returned to me in the end, this is enough to comfort your souls 」
You?
It was now that Gu Qing Shan noticed that there were a few dozen skulls neatly arranged in the middle of the ice throne.
According to the black cloaked skeleton, these skulls are the Fuxi Emperors?
What a twisted and cruel truth!
As Gu Qing Shan looked at the black cloaked skeleton, her eyes slowly turned cold.
The black cloaked skeleton finally looked up at Gu Qing Shan.
「 Although I wasn't here just now, you were able to win against my descendant, so you must have some merits 」 the black cloaked skeleton said.
Such a simple sentence, but coming from its mouth, it gave off an indescribable sense of strangeness.
There was an irrepressible desire in his voice.
Just like,
Wanting to eat.
Gu Qing Shan asked: "Are you the Fuxi Emperor who founded the Fuxi Empire?"
"You know me? Ah, that's right, who doesn't know me in this world? "
"In history, you seem to have never been defeated. In the end, you died of old age." Gu Qing Shan recalled.
Speaking of this, the black cloaked skeleton paused for a moment.
Those were his glorious years.
The black cloaked skeleton took out a cigar from somewhere, lit it, and put it in his mouth.
The flame on the cigar flickered.
The skeleton exhaled a mouthful of smoke.
「 What a wonderful smell 」 the skeleton muttered.
This scene was somewhat comical.
Looking at him, Gu Qing Shan felt a chill down his spine.
Others might not know, but he knew the truth.
After eating human blood and flesh, the dead could feel the world again for a certain period of time.
How many people did it eat?
Where are the souls of those people?
"Yes, in the world of the living, there was no one who could stop me."
The black cloaked skeleton breathed out another mouthful of smoke and sighed: "This is the tragedy of humanity, even if you become the strongest, you can only slowly walk towards extinction in the tide of time"
"What does a soul taste like?" Gu Qing Shan suddenly asked.
The black cloaked skeleton was surprised.
For a living person to ask such a question, could it be that he knows something?
"The dead have no sense of taste" the black cloaked skeleton muttered: "But when a soul enters your mouth, you will feel its struggle, its despair and unwillingness. When you swallow it, you will feel a sense of power in your body"
"This power is clear and distinct, letting you know that you've become a bit stronger"
"Becoming stronger is the most wonderful taste of all"
The black cloaked skeleton laughed heartily.
Gu Qing Shan calmly listened and pondered: "A soul that you ate shouldn't have dissipated right? After all, you were once a living being made of three souls and seven spirits"
The black cloaked skeleton paused.
He carefully observed Gu Qing Shan.
This young man, not only was he able to win against his descendant, but he was also able to stop the war between the two countries, a truly talented person.
If I can make this person work for me, not only will I be able to reduce a lot of resistance, I can also speed up my plan.
The black cloaked skeleton was a bit more patient now.
It slowly spoke: "As the dead, I can't make them dissipate, but their souls will forever struggle in my body in pain, while their power will be used by me"
"As the dead, you can't make your soul dissipate?" Gu Qing Shan immediately asked: "Which means, there really is an entity that can eat souls, is that right?"
The black cloaked skeleton looked at her and slowly became serious.
This is a sharp person.
This person knows what's important, every time he asks a question, it's always straight to the point.
The black cloaked skeleton replied: "That's not important, what's important is that we've come to the human realm, this is an unprecedented event in Huang Quan"
"Unprecedented … indeed unprecedented, which means something really did happen to Huang Quan — — what exactly happened?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The black cloaked skeleton lightly shook his head and spoke: "I'll give you two pieces of advice"
"Please go ahead"
"First, living people shouldn't ask about Huang Quan, that will destroy all of your beliefs and hopes"
"And the second?" Gu Qing Shan asked, feeling a bit regretful.
If the other party doesn't want to tell me the truth, I won't be able to grasp the true situation of the hell of Huang Quan.
"Second, you are a person with a bright future, if you're willing to become my subordinate, when the Frozen Hell descends upon the human realm, I will convert you into a powerful dead person of the Frozen Hell according to your contributions"
Gu Qing Shan smiled and said: "Just now, you ate your own descendant right in front of me, how would I dare to follow you?"
The skeleton replied: "That was their honor"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "They didn't do it willingly"
"Failed descendants are not worthy of following me"
"Why not?"
The black cloaked skeleton spoke in a low voice: "Whether it's the human realm or hell, only by going through the baptism of the strong can the strong solidify their rule — — what's wrong with that?"
The black cloaked skeleton excitedly clenched his bony fingers, exuding thick grey fog from his body.
"I've brought the entire Frozen Hell back with me, there are countless wonderful souls here that will allow me to grow stronger step by step"
"As a human, if you follow me, you will receive unprecedented rewards!"
"Otherwise …"
The black cloaked skeleton raised the ice sword in his hand.
His threat was clear.
"Ah? You really use a sword? "Gu Qing Shan's eyes lit up.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly became excited.
Could it be, Huang Quan also has swordsmanship?
Gu Qing Shan has never seen it before!
He didn't do anything. Two swords silently appeared in the air, one on the left and one on the right, standing by his side.
The black cloaked skeleton went silent briefly, then spoke in a low voice: "You're courting death, don't blame others"
He stood up.
The ice throne instantly turned into a mass of icy fog.
This fog lingered around the black cloaked skeleton's hand, coiling around the ice sword.
"Feel despair"
The black cloaked skeleton muttered.
The ice sword let out a sharp screech.
In a split second, screams of pain, curses, cries, begging, howls, screams, and moans of pain resounded at the same time.
These sounds filled the void of space, making anyone who heard them feel as if they've fallen into hell.
Gu Qing Shan's vision darkened, as if she was about to be pulled into a terrifying place.
A split second later, a 7-colored glow appeared from his body.
From the void of space, a rain of flowers and various auspicious beasts descended. Six Guardian Deities of Virtue wielding various weapons appeared.
The six Guardian Deities surrounded Gu Qing Shan and shouted in unison: "Hoh!"
Gu Qing Shan's spirit was lifted.
