Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

On the 22nd floor, Yan Weng shook hands with the girl in the blood-colored robe, then said with a light smile, "Miss Lu, your luck is really good. The two slots that someone reserved earlier just happen to be heading for the Undead Kingdom."

The crimson-robed young girl nodded with a smile. "I've really troubled Elder Yan. We truly do have an urgent matter this time. I’m very sorry for holding up Elder Yan's business."

Yan Weng hurriedly responded with some superficial courtesies, but he also knew that the other party was just being polite and wouldn’t truly care about the two customers whose spots they took.

The background of this young miss was so high that he wouldn’t even be able to talk to her if it weren't for the special nature of his line of work.

Not only did this young girl called Lu Xinhuan possess considerable Void Cutter Realm strength, but she was also one of the vice presidents of Qinghe Realm’s Commerce Association.

Qinghe Realm was one of the largest commercial planes in the entire Myriad Heavens Universe. Its reputation was on par with Zi Luo Heaven, a plane filled to the brim with various organizations.

However, the unusual thing about Qinghe Realm was that the forces within the realm weren’t scattered at all. Rather, the entire realm formed a Commerce Association. The power of the whole realm was gathered together in the form of commerce.

In other words, commerce was the special management style of Qinghe Realm. Therefore, the one standing behind a vice president like Lu Xinhuan was undoubtedly the Star Ruler of Qinghe Realm, Zhong Qinghe.

Just as the two were exchanging pleasantries and Yan Weng was planning to get up and send Lu Xinhuan off, the phone on his desk rang.

……

"Sir, you can't go up there." A tall security guard blocked Gu Nan’s path. Although he was called a security guard, he was actually a cultivator with a rather high realm who held a flying sword in his hand.

Gu Nan had seen his fair share of all kinds of cultivators in the Myriad Heavens Universe, but people who used the legendary flying swords really weren’t too common, so he subconsciously cast a couple more glances at it.

"Your Excellency, I’ve already informed Mr. Yan Weng on the 22nd floor. He said he will come down immediately after handling the matter at hand."

The receptionist girl also rushed over and stared at Gu Nan as she said, "Your Excellency, we ask that you wait for a little while. Please don’t make things difficult for us."

As she said this, she very calmly blocked Gu Nan’s way, but she wasn’t actually nervous.

In fact, due Heavenly Province World’s special nature as a frontline plane, someone would run to their world to cause trouble every two days or so. Oftentimes, people would mistakenly believe they were strong enough or possessed a background that allowed them to do whatever they wanted. In the end, all of these people would be thrown out of the plane.

The lives of insignificant characters like the receptionist were of little concern to the higher ups, but any trouble that occurred inside this building would make the bigshots lose face, so troublemakers weren’t tolerated here.

There were also passersby who heard the commotion and thought it was another fellow with an inflated ego, so they immediately paused to watch a good show.

Gu Nan raised his head. A distance of twenty-two floors couldn’t obstruct his sight at all. He saw what was happening on the 22nd floor with a single glance.

Two people were talking on that floor, and no one had any intention of coming down at all—of course, even if someone really planned to head down, Gu Nan couldn’t be bothered to wait any longer.

He casually sliced open a rift in space with one hand, actually planning to head to the 22nd floor directly.

However, the security guard didn’t show any fear or reverence upon seeing the other party use Void Cutter Realm powers. Instead, he warned in a heavy voice, "Sir, the use of spatial transfer is not allowed within the plane. Please immediately—"

But before he could finish, his shadow suddenly stood up and pushed him from behind, actually pushing him into the ground and turning him flat.

It was as if the guard had become a two-dimensional existence, stuck to the ground like a sticker, unable to move.

At the same time, his shadow turned corporeal. It almost seemed like he swapped places with his shadow, which looked very eerie.

Gu Nan's current power was already enough to accomplish some unimaginable feats when facing low-level characters.

This shadow swap immediately discouraged all would-be meddlers.

Yan Weng and Lu Xinhuan were indeed both still there by the time Gu Nan reached the 22nd floor in a single step. The two also had different responses to his appearance.

Lu Xinhuan just carefully studied him from the side, as if Gu Nan's face looked somewhat familiar.

Yan Weng, on the other hand, frowned slightly and asked, "Sir, do you want something?"

After asking that, he didn’t wait for Gu Nan to answer before adding, "If you’re here for your reservations, please leave. I will contact you again tomorrow. I have valuable guests to entertain right now. It won’t be good for either of us if this matter blows up."

Yan Weng stared at Gu Nan indifferently. After all, he was in the human smuggling business, which was a direct violation of the laws, so no one dared to blow things up and risk exposing their dealings to the public.

"Are you this company’s boss?" Gu Nan asked bluntly.

This question was somewhat out of Yan Weng's expectations. He didn’t quite understand why Gu Nan asked this.

"Yes."

Thus Gu Nan nodded and didn’t choose to directly kill Yan Weng. He asked, "When will the flight to the World of Gods leave?"

Yan Weng's face became slightly livid when he realized the other party didn't take his words to heart at all. "Didn’t you hear what I just said? I'm telling you now, your booking is cancel—"

"Wait!" A soft shout sounded in his ears; it was Lu Xinhuan who spoke.

Yan Weng was taken aback and stared at her in confusion, but he saw Lu Xinhuan take a deep breath and say, "Elder Yan, there should be others in this batch of bookings, right? Let's buy someone else's spot."

"This…" Yan Weng was a little speechless for a while. He didn't quite understand why Lu Xinhuan was doing this.

More importantly, all the bookings in this batch besides Gu Nan and Wu Gui were already set, so rescheduling them would be very troublesome.

But Yan Weng wasn’t a greenhorn. Lu Xinhuan’s strange change in attitude made him realize something. Cold sweat immediately broke out on his back.

"Your Excellency Gu Nan, I greet you on behalf of my family’s lord." Lu Xinhuan gave a deep bow, showing extreme respect to Gu Nan.

"Who is your family's lord?"

"Zhong Qinghe of Qinghe Realm." Lu Xinhuan didn’t seem averse to mentioning Zhong Qinghe by name and smiled. "During the earlier battle in White Bones Realm, my family's lord even said that within ten thousand years, another Realm Level plane will be created in the Myriad Heavens Universe."

Many people paid attention to the invasion of White Bones Realm by seven other planes. Some people naturally noticed Gu Nan's performance in all this.

With merely a lower-level clone, he forcibly trapped Rending Mountain Venerable inside White Bones Realm by repeatedly borrowing his true body’s power. This was already enough to catch the attention of many Star Rulers.

"Are you also heading to the Undead Kingdom? We also have some forces over there. You can join us if you don't mind,” Lu Xinhuan invited.

"Might as well." Gu Nan nodded. Having the help of some forces in the World of Gods was indeed much more convenient than acting on his own there.

On the other hand, when Yan Weng heard the name "Gu Nan," he finally realized which person he was offending.

‘Why would a Star Ruler bigshot run to my humble abode for an illegal crossing!’ Yan Weng simply wanted to cry.

"I understand." He acted as if the previous unpleasantness never happened and piled smiles on his face. "Please wait a moment, My Lord. I will guide you there immediately."

"Miss Lu, why don't you also join us and head over?" Yan Weng turned to Lu Xinhuan again and said with a troubled smile, "Everyone else has already arrived. If you want to buy two spots, I'm afraid you'll have to discuss it with them…"

Gu Nan cut in from beside them before Lu Xinhuan could respond, "What’s there to discuss? Won’t it work out if you just kill two?"
