Chapter 1557: Dying in glory
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
I originally wanted to hide this for a while longer.
Since Lin is a straightforward person, she sometimes doesn’t know how to hide her inner thoughts.
Informing her of my true identity isn’t necessarily a good thing for her——-
She might start subconsciously acting or speaking differently.
This would definitely draw suspicion.
It was because I was worried about this that I didn’t tell her the truth.
But after that ‘puu bon bon bon’, she immediately recognized me.
Gu Qing Shan pondered a bit and asked: “Boss, how strong is Lin currently?”
Boss’ voice resounded in his Thought Sea: “The 12-winged seraph Abyssal form she’s currently using was one of the Abyssal forms that I spent a lot of effort to create, it’s a lot more powerful compared to any other Abyssal forms”
“Even more powerful compared to the Fate Weaver?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“A lot more powerful. After all, she is the main force among those infiltrating the Wraith realm, not only did I use the frozen corpse’s hair, I even absorbed quite a bit of power from the eyeball in order to create this Abyssal form”
Gu Qing Shan felt assured.
—–if that’s the case, then Lin would at least be able to protect herself.
However, after my confirmation ‘hm’, Lin stopped sending her voice.
If she’s angry…
I don’t mind anything except the fact that she’s probably going to want to beat me up.
Now that she’s become so much stronger, it’s probably not easy to face her.
Remembering his battle against Lin on the Gemini Star, Gu Qing Shan felt his face becoming itchy.
Then——
“Lin, I’m sorry!” he sent his voice.
No answer.
He continued to send his voice: “I actually wanted to inform you earlier, but there were too many people watching, so I was afraid that you might not be able to react in time”
This time, there was an answer——
A resounding mature female voice echoed in his Thought Sea:
“Huh? Are you looking down on this big sister’s improv skills?”
Gu Qing Shan panicked and immediately sent his voice: “Definitely not! My situation is a bit unique right now, Boss is currently with me, we entered this world together”
“Boss is currently with you?” Lin’s tone became a bit strange.
“That’s right, he’s currently a dog. We have a bird as well, but the bird wouldn’t have been useful here, so he went off to do something else, only Boss and I are here now” Gu Qing Shan explained.
“Your relationships are as chaotic as always—— I don’t need to know that much, don’t immediately leave after the meeting is over, wait outside for me, we’re going have a nice and long talk about today’s matter” Lin sent her voice.
Gu Qing Shan snuck a glance at Lin, only to see her lightly moving her wrist, occasionally clenching her fist.
Not good!
She’s definitely going to ask for a fight!
Can I fight against Lin with my sword?
——I can’t go all out like that.
Then I can only use my fists.
——but I can’t use [Ethereal] either, since this fist technique was supposed to have destroyed the Samsara itself.
Am I going to have to let myself be beaten up?
At this point, Gu Qing Shan had naturally forgotten the Apocalypse, he was only worried about how to cross this difficult challenge ahead of him.
“What’s the matter? I feel like you’ve just run into some sort of issue” Boss suddenly asked.
“Lin just told me to meet her later, most likely she’ll be asking for a fight” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“Didn’t you win against her before?” Boss seemed surprised.
“That was when we were still enemies, I naturally can’t fight to kill her at this point in time” Gu Qing Shan sighed.
“Then there’s really no good solution to this, let’s just cross that bridge when you get there” Boss just left it at that and said nothing else.
Gu Qing Shan could only helplessly sigh again.
In the grand hall, the wraiths were displaying the various treasures for everyone to see.
Among the numerous treasures, a blood-colored talisman quickly drew Gu Qing Shan’s attention.
That’s Red Wraith’s true body!
I once used the three Great Laws of Reality – Time, Space, and Fate – to erase the Red Wraith.
—–that Red Wraith arrived from a parallel world, who was scheming against the Saint Spirit World and fought against the [Chaos] Serpentes King, he was erased when I deceived him into leaving that world.
But now, the Red Wraith of this Reality is nowhere to be seen as well.
Gu Qing Shan continued to search with his eyes through the pile of treasures and quickly noticed a pile of broken fragments, as well as the terrific sword qi that was being exuded from it.
There are no mistakes, this is it!
Gu Qing Shan suppressed his delight and leisurely approached the long box that contained the fragments, commenting as he casually picked one of the fragments up: “How regretful”
“Indeed, it’s regrettable that this Samsara Divine Sword is broken” Wraith Lord Fate Obstruction replied.
Lin thought briefly and followed up: “We’ve tried several methods, but still couldn’t reforge this sword. Seems like there aren’t any roles for this sword to play during this battle”
Gu Qing Shan carefully examined the fragment in his hand.
Lines of glowing text appeared in front of him:
[Discovered item: Fragment of the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword (can be reforged)]
[Unique attribute: Dying in glory]
[Dying in glory: This sword had been completely broken into pieces following the sword spirit’s will. No power would be able to return it to normal]
[Attention: You can only reforge this sword step by step through obtaining the sword spirit’s permission]
[To communicate with the sword spirit, you will need to spend Soul Points in order for it to manifest, expending 100 Soul Points every second]
Since it wasn’t an appropriate time to communicate with the sword spirit, Gu Qing Shan did nothing for now.
I need to think of a way to take all of these fragments…
Gu Qing Shan’s expression didn’t change at all and looked around: “Are these fragments truly useless?”
Wraith Lord Giant Frame replied: “They’re completely useless. We spent so much effort to retrieve them from the great tomb, but no matter method we used, it refused to be repaired”
“Hm, I’ve also asked the two Deities, both of them had confirmed that this sword is completely dead” Reneedol replied.
Gu Qing Shan pondered: “How about I give it a try?”
“Take it then” Lin casually said.
Complete silence.
Everyone turned to her.
Gu Qing Shan’s heart silently sank.
We’re supposed to be conflicting, why did she say such a thing without asking for the Grand Empress’ permission?
Lin chuckled and mocked: “A useless crippled and a bunch of trash, what a perfect combination”
Everyone was surprised briefly before realizing what she was doing.
——-these two have always been at odds with one another, always fighting whenever they meet, as expected, it’s the same today.
Lin continued: “Wraith Might Cang, how about we bet on it?”
“What would you have that I could possibly want, tch!”
Gu Qing Shan took a step back and appeared cautious.
“Wraith Might Cang, if you can fix this sword, I won’t bother you again from now on, but if you can’t…” Lin said.
“If I can’t, then what?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“If you can’t, then don’t show up wherever I am from now on” Lin continued.
“Why does where I show up matter to you?” Gu Qing Shan questioned.
“I don’t like looking at trash like you” Lin casually replied.
“How dare you!” Gu Qing Shan acted angrily.
He approached Lin.
Lin had already shifted into a fighting stance.
Seeing the two of them about to clash, Reneedol shouted:
“Enough! Both of you!”
The three Wraith Lords also stepped out between the two of them.
Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to stop.
Lin already had one of her fists raised and ready to fight but was also forced to stop.
However, the two of them continued to glare at one another while exuding killing intent, clearly unwilling to let this go.
“Boy, are you still looking down on me now?” Lin sent her voice.
“Not at all, not at all, I was wrong” Gu Qing Shan sincerely apologized.
“Then you’re going to listen to big sister later on, got it?”
“…Huh?”
Naturally, no one heard their private conversation. Reneedol furiously scolded him from her throne: “Cang Wu Zhang, not only did you make some ridiculous music when you enter, but you’re now trying to cause trouble over a bunch of useless trash, get out of my sight!”
Gu Qing Shan hurriedly clasped his fist and said: “Your Majesty, I still have a few ideas to try, please let me see if I can reforge this sword or not”
Lin coldly snorted and said: “Then go ahead and try, don’t forget our bet”
Gu Qing Shan casually took all the sword fragments, strongly glared at her, then seriously spoke: “Don’t act so smug, we’ll see who’s going to win”
He turned and left.
No one in the grand hall tried to stop him.
Those fragments… were truly just a bunch of trash that couldn’t be reforged.
There was no harm in letting Cang Wu Zhang give it a try.
