The only people left in the room were Gu Qing Shan and the other aristocratic ladies.
The ladies were silently observing Gu Qing Shan.
This young man is so good-looking.
They silently thought.
Indeed, Gu Qing Shan's appearance wasn't bad to begin with, not to mention that he had gone through so many years of hardship and bloodshed, his entire body exuded a faint sense of age and maturity that miraculously clashed with his youthful appearance.
He had a unique air about him.
More importantly, he was brought here by that esteemed lady herself.
That lady very rarely spoke up for anyone.
The noble ladies winked at each other.
A noblewoman with exquisite makeup silently turned her wrist, waving the emerald ring on her slender finger at Gu Qing Shan.
The emerald gave off an almost undetectable vibration.
A message came from the emerald and was quickly transmitted to the girl's mind.
[This lifeform has existed for less than 20 years, rough estimate to be around level 35, Profession: Swordsman]
The girl opened her mouth in surprise.
Level 35 was the standard for strength in the girl's world.
This was a dividing line.
At this level, a swordsman can already summon elemental spirits and practice advanced elemental swordsmanship.
As the girl looked at Gu Qing Shan, a lot of thoughts started to form in her mind.
He's so young, but he's already reached level 35.
Even in her world, such a person would be considered a top-level genius.
And she came from a certain world in the Strife Zones.
It was an incredibly powerful world.
— — -from another perspective, using the standard of a cultivation world, it was very rare for such a young Sainted realm cultivator to appear.
Although Gu Qing Shan came from a Scattered world, he never stopped cultivating.
His talents were already quite good.
In the past life, he only entered the cultivation world after spending half a year of his life, so his starting point was much lower than most people.
His path was also much harder than everyone else's.
But in this life, no matter how powerful a world he was in, he wasn't much weaker than his peers at the same age.
The girl didn't know any of this, but in her mind, a level 35 swordsman who wasn't even 20 years old was definitely worth befriending.
This person was more than qualified to be her friend.
Besides, he was quite good-looking.
Thinking until here, the noble lady smiled and said to Gu Qing Shan, "Hello, may I ask where are you from?"
"Ah, hello, I come from a distant Scattered world" Gu Qing Shan said in a friendly manner.
The smile on the noble lady's face froze.
She was speechless.
Scattered worlds.
It was the symbol of primitive and barbaric.
That kind of place would always bear the fate of being destroyed in the blink of an eye, and would never be able to accumulate the weight and height of civilization.
The noble lady sighed, feeling very disappointed.
Actually, even if it was a poor boy and a noble lady, it was still an acceptable romantic story.
However, the person in front of him came from a Scattered World and couldn't even be considered a poor kid.
It was tiring to deal with this kind of people who came from uncivilized places because they wouldn't understand anything you said.
The two sides were not on the same level.
He continued thinking …
In fact, this person must have paid a high price to invite that noble lady.
He himself had no deep connection with the lady.
Because he was just a person from a Scattered World.
So even if he was a level 35 person, he was still nothing but a barbarian.
His short-sighted vision and poor knowledge would greatly limit his future development.
Thinking that, the noble lady backed down.
After listening to the conversation between the two, the other noble ladies also exchanged glances with each other.
They quickly reached an agreement.
"Excuse us, we have something to take care of" they said.
"Go ahead" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The noble ladies stood up, bowed to Gu Qing Shan, and left the green room.
Their laughter could be heard from the corridor.
"What are you laughing at?" the girl who talked to Gu Qing Shan angrily asked.
"Ahahaha, a Scattered world, you're also …"
The noble ladies laughed even louder.
This laughter seemed to be directed at the girl, but it also didn't seem to be.
The door closed.
The laughter slowly faded away.
There was no one else around.
The only person left in the room was Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan had already noticed the other party's intention and reaction.
He didn't mind and instead calmed down.
Everything was more or less settled.
This was a rare moment of rest.
He wasn't in a hurry to look at the War God Quest, so he looked at the 20-layer cream cake on the table.
The cake was decorated with all kinds of rare fruits. It looked good and had a faint fragrance. It didn't make people feel that it was too sweet.
Gu Qing Shan looked at another corner of the table.
Inside the large ice bucket, various alcoholic beverages were still chilled.
Gu Qing Shan randomly picked out a black bottle of alcohol, cut a slice of cake, and sat down comfortably.
I wonder how other people feel after a long journey.
Gu Qing Shan traveled through hundreds of millions of World Layers without stopping, doing a lot of things, so he was feeling a bit tired.
Since Su Cher is going to be fine, and the System's Quest is done …
Let's rest for a bit.
With a light click, the black bottle was opened.
A wondrous aroma of alcohol wafted out.
Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath.
This type of alcohol wasn't inferior to his masterpieces at all.
Gu Qing Shan didn't bother looking for a glass and simply took a swig from the bottle.
"Not even using a glass, your manners are a bit rude"
A female voice suddenly called out.
Gu Qing Shan was shocked and spat out the alcohol in his mouth.
"Pfft! Cough cough cough cough! "
While coughing, he looked in front of him.
Only to see a young girl in a maid outfit standing in front of him, spitting out the alcohol in his mouth.
Gu Qing Shan was very surprised.
— — how strange, when I spread out my inner sight, I couldn't sense anything.
Where did this young girl come from?
"Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to"
Gu Qing Shan quickly apologized.
The young girl had never been in such a situation before, so she seemed to be very frightened.
But she was trying her best not to scream out loud.
Her body was trembling as if she was going to faint at any moment.
But she gritted her teeth and didn't faint.
The young girl spoke with a calm and restrained tone: "Your saliva, food residue, as well as the alcohol you've drunk are all on my face. I've never been in such a situation before, so I'd like to ask you, how can I escape from this embarrassing situation without being rude?"
Gu Qing Shan regained her senses, formed a hand seal to cleanse her body, and infused it with spirit energy.
In just a few moments, all the foreign substances on the young girl's face disappeared without a trace.
Gu Qing Shan then guided some spirit spring water to help the young girl clean herself again.
"It's fine now, I'm really sorry about what happened just now"
Gu Qing Shan said apologetically.
The young girl held her face and carefully touched it.
After a while, her body finally stopped trembling.
She took a deep breath, then lightly bowed to Gu Qing Shan and said: "I hate your actions from before, so please don't expect me to talk to you again"
She angrily walked to one side, took out a knife and fork, then cut off a small piece of cake from the 20-layer cake and gracefully ate it.
She seemed so hungry that she only needed a few bites to finish the cake.
After the girl finished, she hesitated a bit, then cut off another piece of cake and continued eating.
Seeing that she really didn't care about him, Gu Qing Shan couldn't think of anything else to do.
He's never been in such a situation before.
— — -there are all sorts of strange things in the 900 million World Layers, who says that my inner sight will definitely be able to detect the other party?
Not to mention, this is the Bramble Bird royal green room, so this young girl must have a deep relationship with the Bramble Birds to be allowed in here.
Gu Qing Shan has a favor to ask of the Bramble Birds, so he shouldn't act rashly on their turf.
Since he already apologized, and the other party has already decided to ignore him, there's no need to provoke them again.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.
But after going through this, he wasn't in the mood to eat or drink anymore.
He looked at the War God UI.
Lines of glowing text were silently floating on the War God UI.
[Your mission has been completed]
[Please hold Triste's medal in your hand without touching it]
Gu Qing Shan took out the silver medal and held it in his hand.
On the medal, Triste suddenly uttered a silent scream.
She disappeared.
Following that, new lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI.
[Communication channel has been connected, attempting to activate new War God functions]
[Activation process will take a few minutes, please do not let the medal leave your hand]
Gu Qing Shan held the medal and silently waited.
Dong!
The door to the green room was suddenly pushed open.
"My apologies, we're currently searching for a royal family treasure"
A few fully armed guards walked in and said apologetically.
They looked at Gu Qing Shan, then at the medal in Gu Qing Shan's hand, their attitude was very polite.
"Please go ahead" Gu Qing Shan replied.
A few guards began to search the room.
As Gu Qing Shan stared at their actions, he felt a bit suspicious.
These guards said they were searching for a treasure, but they weren't rummaging through the room at all. Instead, they were walking around the room with a scepter in hand.
From the looks of it, they were trying to sense something.
Wait a minute!
Aside from the guards, why am I the only one in the room?
Gu Qing Shan's heart skipped a beat.
He looked around the room, even releasing his inner sight to search around.
Where's the little girl from just now?
How did she disappear without a trace?
In theory, even ghosts wouldn't be able to hide from the search of inner sight.
But the little girl really did disappear without a trace.
When she appeared just now, Gu Qing Shan didn't notice at all.
From the looks of it, these guards don't seem to know anything about this at all.
That was a strange thing indeed.
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts quickly turned, but his expression remained silent.
A few moments later, the guards finished their search and walked towards Gu Qing Shan.
"My apologies, we were only doing our job" the leader of the guards said apologetically.
Gu Qing Shan looked at him, then at the expressions of the other guards.
They were all very calm.
Seems like they also knew that this kind of search wouldn't yield any results.
"It's fine, you didn't affect me at all" Gu Qing Shan smiled.
The guards nodded to him, turned to leave, and even helped him close the door.
The only person left in the room was Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes.
This isn't right.
If the little girl was also a guest, the Bramble Bird guards wouldn't have only apologized to him.
They scrupulously abided by etiquette and would definitely apologize to every guest.
In other words, the Bramble Bird guards didn't know about the little girl's existence!
Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes.
He immediately saw the little girl.
As soon as the guards left, she appeared again.
The little girl sighed deeply, sounding very tired.
As if she had done something just now, and it was too much for her to bear.
Their gazes met.
"I'm very sorry, I have to go into hiding for a bit, please don't tell the guards that I'm here" the little girl said.
"Who exactly are you?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I am Her Highness the princess' maid, after the princess went missing, I had no choice but to escape"
"The princess went missing?" Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
Today was supposed to be the Bramble Bird princess' 12th birthday and coming of age ceremony, why did she go missing?
The little girl answered dejectedly: "That's right, the royal family felt that us maids didn't take good care of the princess and caused her to go missing, so they decided to kill me"
"So that's why"
Gu Qing Shan appeared surprised, but the doubt in his mind only grew stronger.
What kind of female servant was it that even the guards of the Imperial Family were unable to detect her presence?
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts quickly turned.
Recalling his journey here just now, he was very sure that the royal green room was protected by a powerful and strict force.
But such a force still couldn't find the little girl.
If the little girl had been here from the very beginning, even the Light of Dawn Triste couldn't notice her existence.
The noble wooden beauty, the big rooster, as well as the 7-8 young ladies from different worlds didn't notice her existence at all.
In other words, she managed to fool everyone.
… She only showed herself in front of him.
No one else knew about this.
