Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

Mo Wusheng waited outside the cave, his entire person falling into anxiety.

On one side lay his heavily injured older brother. On the other side was his sweetheart who was in danger…….

Fortunately, he didn’t need to hesitate for long. Because not long after Gu Nan entered the cave, he walked back out again with three people.

To be exact, he carried one in his hand while two followed behind him.

“Is that… Du Mian?” Mo Wusheng’s eyes almost popped out of his sockets. Du Mian, who was known as the younger generation’s top genius and who had defeated Tianshu with one strike, had actually been beaten till his appearance resembled that of a dead dog?

“Then Fairy Lin, this humble one will take his leave.” Gu Nan walked out of the cave as he smiled lightly at Lin Jun and said, “I hope that Fairy can find what I need as soon as possible.”

“Gentleman, rest assured… How should Lin Jun contact Gentleman?”

“I will appear at the next full moon.” With his hands behind his back, Gu Nan coolly pretended to be a mysterious expert, then nimbly left with Yan Xiaoxiao.

Only then did Mo Wusheng come to his senses and hurriedly walk forward. “Fairy, that Gu Nan… Is he a righteous path expert who was previously living in seclusion?”

“No.” Lin Jun shook her head gently.

“Ah? Then which side is he on?” Mo Wusheng was a little confused. ‘Since the other party beat Du Mian like this, he can’t be from the demonic path, right?’

“He is… on Miss Yan’s side.” Lin Jun also seemed somewhat at a loss. She thought for a long time before answering.

After a pause, she sighed softly. “He is Miss Yan’s teacher.”

……

……

While the Mo brothers were falling into a stupefied state, Gu Nan was already wandering along an unknown river bank with his apprentice—Yan Xiaoxiao, who was now the Polis Witch.

“Teacher, this half a year……”

“Oh, I went into secluded cultivation.” Gu Nan didn’t have any self-awareness about lying and deadpanned, “In the battle with Wen Changfeng back then, I luckily escaped with my life. I went into closed-door cultivation to recuperate and only recently left secluded cultivation.”

His words sounded very fake, but in Yan Xiaoxiao’s ears, they couldn’t have sounded more true.

She was no longer the ignorant girl of the past. Right now, she was also a figure standing at the peak of Innate Realm, so she could understand the significance of a Prodigious Realm cultivator like Wen Changfeng.

Only now did she realize exactly what kind of impressive feat it was for her teacher to escape from a Prodigious Realm expert back then.

“Then Teacher, have you taken that step now?” She looked at Gu Nan with an expectant gaze.

“Not yet. I still need one last step.” Gu Nan lightly shook his head, then laughed in spite of himself. “What’s the matter? Hoping I can avenge you?”

Yan Xiaoxiao lowered her head in slight embarrassment. She couldn’t remember the last time she had felt embarrassed, but in front of Teacher, she seemed to have reverted into the little girl who didn’t understand anything.

Gu Nan patted her shoulder. “Of course, you have to personally avenge your parents and family.”

“But……”

“You feel that the demonic path is too powerful, and it’s impossible for you to take revenge?”

Yan Xiaoxiao fell silent. Gu Nan’s words shot like a sharp arrow, directly piercing her innermost thoughts.

Gu Nan, however, started smiling. “Back then, I taught you what a killer is, but I didn’t teach you how to kill yet. Just in time—we can have a make-up lesson now.”

……

……

The night of the full moon soon arrived. Lin Jun didn’t have much time to gather more information, but she still hurried and finally fulfilled Gu Nan’s request.

The moonlight swayed in the dark like water. A thin booklet lay quietly in front of Lin Jun. Its silver cover reflected the moonlight onto Lin Jun’s delicate face.

Mo Wusheng sat beside her and also saw that booklet. He couldn’t help feeling a little indignant. “Fairy, you’ve been so busy gathering this information that you haven’t slept for several nights now. If that person doesn’t come tonight……”

“How can such a figure miss an appointment?” Lin Jun wasn’t worried at all and had a small smile on her face.

Of course Mo Wusheng also knew that a fellow who could beat Du Mian like a dead dog wouldn’t fall so low as to ghost them, but……

‘He was clearly just a countryside barbarian. How did he suddenly become an outstanding and talented person?’

‘The Polis Witch’s teacher… If someone could train his own apprentice into a freak like the Polis Witch, then he would indeed be a frightening character.’

But Mo Wusheng’s heart still couldn’t quite accept this. He finally drove Zhang Tianshu away after much difficulty, but Fairy Lin worked herself to the bone for another man……

The two of them sat in the courtyard and waited quietly. Suddenly, a cold wind blew past. Neither of them noticed that a dark shadow had already reached their side.

Gu Nan slowly walked out from the shadow and gently picked up the booklet with a smile. “Fairy, many thanks.”

Only then did Lin Jun notice Gu Nan. She hurriedly shouted, “Gentleman, please wait.” But inwardly, she was amazed at the other party’s elusive entrance, almost like a ghost.

“Does Fairy have another matter?” Gu Nan turned his head back in surprise.

Mo Wusheng’s face couldn’t help but darken. ‘Did you come here just to get the information and leave? At the very least, we worked hard for half a month, but you didn’t even express gratitude……’

In all honesty, Gu Nan had never been in the habit of thanking NPCs, not unless he was still waiting to trigger the next mission.

Lin Jun, on the other hand, didn’t mind. She looked calm as she spoke, “It’s still about Miss Yan……”

“I have my own arrangements for Xiaoxiao, so there’s no need to trouble Fairy,” Gu Nan interrupted with a small wave of his hand.

Gu Nan’s rude behavior again and again finally enraged Mo Wusheng. He suddenly stood up and shouted, “Gu Nan! Don’t be so shameless. We chased the Polis Witch for several months, but you’re just going to take her away with a single sentence?”

Looking at Mo Wusheng standing in front of him, Gu Nan smiled and didn’t even have any desire to attack. He merely pointed behind Mo Wusheng. “Look behind you.”

“Hmph! Enough with your tricks……” Mo Wusheng sneered. However, his expression suddenly froze before he could finish the sentence, because he felt something cold touch his neck.

He didn’t know when, but a pitch-black dagger was already on his neck.

Even weirder, Gu Nan didn’t move at all. A human figure had appeared out of Mo Wusheng’s shadow and placed a dagger on his neck.

Lin Jun was behind Mo Wusheng and saw the scene clearly. She couldn’t help exclaiming, “Rudimentary innate ability!”

This Gu Nan really was only a step away from Prodigious Realm!

Mo Wusheng finally showed a reaction. His face suddenly turned terribly pale. Gu Nan gave him a casual push and made him stumble back and fall. He ended up sitting on the ground.

At this time, Lin Jun also stood up. She walked up to Gu Nan and bowed slightly. “Gentleman’s power is more than capable of suppressing Miss Yan’s murderous nature. Lin Jun dare not say more.” She continued, “It’s just that the troubled times have come now, and no one in the world can stay out of it. I hope that Gentleman will attach the utmost importance to the common people……”

“You want my help to deal with the demonic path?” Gu Nan looked at her with great interest.

Lin Jun nodded firmly. “That’s right. If Gentleman can lend a helping hand to the righteous path, it will be a blessing for the world.”

“Oh, it won’t be cheap to recruit me as a hired thug.” Gu Nan’s gaze traveled up and down her body as he chuckled. “What price do you plan to pay?”
