Chapter 1832: A sudden turn of events

Translator: La009

“What’s that technique of yours called?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Lightning God Duo Stance” Demon Dragon patted some dust off his hands and said as he turned around.

“In other words- – there’s a second part?” Gu Qing Shan asked with intrigue.

“That’s right, I’ve been practicing this for a long time, but this is the first time I used it” Demon Dragon replied.

The first time he used it.

How careful, quite an improvement compared to before.

Or rather, Demon Dragon hasn’t been able to feel a sense offaith from Huang Quan this entire time?

Gu Qing Shan pondered and asked: “How was your time at the Hall of Reincarnation?”

“Enough to live day-to-day, but from today onwards, that’s going to change” Demon Dragon casually replied.

The ground itself around them suddenly began to shake.

The two of them instinctively looked up at the sky, only to see a few cracks forming at the highest point of the secret room.

Layers upon layers of lock seal runes began to crumble, each giving off a bright glow before being reduced to a dim glimmer, then finally fading away into the void.

The skull woman’s voice could be heard from a distance: How ridiculous, so you bunch had actually surrendered to ‘it’!

The husky voice of the Gates of Hell’s leader responded to her: You’ve been able to survive through two Clashes already, but this is going to be an exception – J

He suddenly uttered a desperate scream.

The sound of explosions in the sky became even more violent.

Gu Qing Shan scowled.

The situation is changing too fast, I don’t have much time left.

“We need to leave right away- there are still so many lock seals here, how should we leave?” he asked.

Demon Dragon looked out towards the small path outside and hesitantly answered: “We can’t go back the way we came”

He then headed towards the Eastern wall of the secret room and stuck a different talisman to it, explaining as he does:

“This is the Hall Master’s talisman of access. My wife was worried about my safety, so she forced me to take it”

“Sister-in-bond seems to treat you very well” Gu Qing Shan praised.

— -for no reason at all, he thought about Shroud.

As the talisman was placed on the wall, it instantly opened up into a door.

The two of them went in one after the other, both rushing through the same long hallway until they exited from behind a statue.

Several cautious voices called out:

“Leng Qian Chen?”

“What are you doing here, Leng Qian Chen!?”

“And the Death God as well! ”

-strange, this place is the central room, that path is connected to some of the most crucial sealed Divine Artifact vaults, he—— we can’t let them pass!”

The group of Deities swiftly unsheathed their weapons.

Gu Qing Shan stepped forward and shouted: “Halt! I am a Virtuous Deity of

Huang Quan, and Leng Qian Chen is the son-in-law of the Hall of

Reincarnation’s Master, who gave you the gall to raise your weapons against

The Deities all froze.

That’s true, the other party is a Virtuous Deity, wouldn’t we be going against a superior?

As Gu Qing Shan was about to continue, Demon Dragon patted his shoulder:

“I’ve already seen too many of your performances- – hurry and go back to Hell, the competition to become the Devil King is about to begin, don’t waste time here”

Gu Qing Shan hesitantly glanced at him.

VVéve already left the secret room and are no longer surrounded by millions of dangerous lock seals, we can freely come and go as we wish, so why are you staying back, Demon Dragon?

Demon Dragon continued: “I have some debts I need to collect, don’t worry about it”

“Alright, I’ll be leaving first” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“Go” Demon Dragon waved his hand dismissively.

Gu Qing Shan tugged on the black thread around his wrist and vanished without a trace.

Only Demon Dragon remained in place.

A leader-looking Deity shouted: “What exactly is going on here? Leng Qian Chen, if you can’t give a satisfactory answer, don’t blame us for being merciless”

Demon Dragon laughed deprecatingly and replied: “Blame you for being merciless? Even since I joined the Hall of Reincarnation, when have the bunch of you ever been even the least bit friendly? You all thought that I took your dream lover away, didn’t you?”

“Secretly belittling me, scoffing at me, cold shoulders are nothing but minor misdemeanors, so I don’t care”

“Every time there’s a mission, I’m always isolated”

“Whatever I try to do, there’s always at least one of you trying to ruin it”

“—–I know the Hall Master doesn’t see me highly, and you bunch think I’m not worthy of Liu Yet‘

“But since I’ve been humble this entire time, did you mistake that for being weak-willed?”

He slowly walked towards the group and sighed: “I’m not actually afraid of any of you, I just didn’t want Liu Ye to be in a difficult situation, having to mediate between us all”

“It’s all insignificant matters anyways, so I didn’t really care to argue”

“But you all actually tried to make it significant, purposely putting me in the middle of a deathtrap on the battlefield. Now I won’t give you another inch”

Demon Dragon casually put on a set of jet-black claws.

All the deities were frozen in place, unable to move a single muscle.

Demon Dragon stretched his fingers and curtly continued:

“The lightning to strike you is already on its way, but I feel like… that’s not enough”

1 second.

A pillar of lightning descended from the sky and filled the entire hall.

The group of Deities had all lost their defenses and ability to retaliate, unable to do anything but jerk their bodies from the lightning.

Demon Dragon lightly licked the claw equipped on his hands and displayed an expression of animated killing intent.

At this time, he seemed to have turned into a completely different person, once again becoming himself from the distant past.

r Worms and insects, time to die… J

He spat out those words using draconic language.

And suddenly vanished from the spot- – – –

Desperate screams and cries continuously radiated.

Gu Qing Shan directly reappeared above the Tie Wei Mountain.

Fei Yue retrieved the black thread on his wrist and asked: “What’s the situation?”

“It’s still fine, I just need to go to Hell”

After saying that, Gu Qing Shan sensed something and immediately turned his gaze towards the sky.

A dark ray of flowing light was descending from the sky, crashing into the Tie Wei Mountain at unimaginable speeds.

Bang!

A thunderous shock resounded across the world.

Even the Grand Tie Wei Mountain itself shook a little from the impact.

“Lady High Deity!” Fei Yue exclaimed in shock.

As Gu Qing Shan took a closer look, he noticed that the skull woman was wounded all over, barely able to stand back up.

The skull woman also noticed them and immediately said: [f Death God, Fei Yue, come and help me, otherwise the Huang Quan realm is done for J

As soon as she said that, several figures appeared in the sky.

The Master of the Hall of Reincarnation, the dual-bladed man, as well as the other two Virtuous Deities slowly approached but stopped in front of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain without moving any closer.

Kill the High Deity, Death God, Fei Yue, kill her now! I the Hall of Reincarnation’s Master said.

“For what reason?” Fei Yue asked.

Because she sold the Huang Quan realm out! J the dual-bladed man said.

Another Virtuous Deity coldly continued: You refuse to kill her, do you intend to betray Huang Quan and sell out the Samsara itself as well? J

The final Virtuous Deity called out: r Just look, she’s already on her last breaths! Kill her and join our side! J

At this point, all the eyes within the Huang Quan realm were focused on the Grand Tie Wei Mountain.

The skull woman was now kneeling on one knee, trying her best to stand up, but couldnt do it no matter how much she tried.

– – – – -she truly is already on her last breaths!

Everyone couldn’t help but think the same.

Fei Yue appeared shocked and couldn’t help herself turning to Gu Qing Shan.

‘What now?” she whispered.

“Are you willing to listen to my words?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“I’ll listen to you, so say something!” Fei Yue answered without hesitation.

Gu Qing Shan shouted: “Where are the Seven Sovereigns?”

From the void of space behind him, seven dead people with crowns on their heads appeared.

r r r Lord Death God… ] J J

The Seven Sovereigns all knelt on one knee, waiting for his orders.

“You all and the members of the Tie Wei Mountain are responsible for protecting the High Deity of Huang Quan, if the High Deity suffers any harm, you will answer to me!”

r r r As you wish! J J J the Seven Sovereigns responded.

Fei Yue understood his intentions right away, so she released hundreds, thousands of black threads to connect to Deities of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain.

“Put your all into protecting Lady High Deity, understood?” she loudly ordered.

“Understood, lady Fei Yue” the Deities of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain

responded.

Gu Qing Shan flew in front of the skull woman and told her in a low voice: “The competition for the Devil King position is about to begin, so I must make my way there. Please try to hold on for a bit longer, I’ll unleash the villains of the 18 Layers of Hell to ensure your safety”

The ghostly fire within the skull woman’s eye sockets flickered, then she abruptly grabbed him and solemnly questioned: Who exactly are you? Why are you helping me? J]

This statement was so strange that everyone appeared shocked.

Gu Qing Shan was completely calm and silently sent his voice: “Senior, I am Gu Qing Shan, disciple of Bai Hua sect. In the future, if my Shifu were to summon you using the [Forgetting River] Divine Skill, her situation would be very dire. I hope that you’ll be able to take me with you at that time to save my Shifu together”

Indeed.

Even though Gu Qing Shan could use [Divine Guidance] to travel between the world of the dead and living, he still had no way to locate Xie Dao Ling.

Xie Dao Ling was currently at the underside of the Human realm, which meant she must have entered the Origin Tomb in search for the ultimate secret of the Human realm.

There would be only one Divine Skill that could bypass all forms of monitoring and reach her from across two worlds- – – – –

[Forgetting River].

In other words, only the skull woman would be able to help him find Xie Dao Ling!

The skull woman appeared shocked, then laughed out loud:

So that was it! That was how it is!

She slowly stood back up while millions of rays of yellow light emerged from her body.

– – – – -her presence was gradually growing greater, even surpassing what was assumed to be her peak state!

As the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation saw that, she muttered in disbelief: How could that…

In the sky, all the Virtuous Deities now couldn’t help themselves from taking a step back.

The skull woman wasn’t concerned with them at all and simply sent her voice to Gu Qing Shan: You managed to save Huang Quan once in the past; you’re also Xie Dao Ling’s disciple; speaking of which, I could be said to have received some of your offerings; and combined with your decision to protect me today; I suppose you’ve passed my test for now- very well, I suppose I don’t

mind granting you the Deific Position of Huang Quan Devil King!”

Gu Qing Shan looked at her and felt completely speechless.

This High Deity ofHuang Quan has played dead twice already.

The first time was to see if there were any traitors.

The second was to assess the stance of the two remaining Virtuous Deities.

-She has no regard for her position and dignity as a High Deity at all, putting on a performance whenever she feels like it!

Ifsomeone ofher caliber decides to act this shameless, who could even win against her!?

Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but feel a sense of extreme respect towards her.

The skull woman suddenly pushed Gu Qing Shan on his shoulder and said: [f The Skinning Hell has yet to decide on a Devil King candidate, you can compete for the Devil King position starting from the Skinning Hell, leave this place to me!

Being pushed like that, Gu Qing Shan abruptly vanished from on top of the Tie Wei Mountain.

At the very next instant, he found that he was already inside a layer of Hell.

“Skinning… so I’ve been directly transported to the Skinning Hell..

Gu Qing Shan muttered.

Spatial transportation isn’t a significant feat.

Compared to that, whats more important is intel.

— -the skull woman seems to know Huang Quan like the back ofher hand, even knowing precisely that the Skinning Hell have yet to decide on a Devil King candidate.

Who exactly is she…

Gu Qing Shan lightly sighed, then muttered to himself.

“I knew it… how could she be defeated by these people so easily…”

– – -after his most recent trip to the giant corpse’s barren world, Gu Qing Shan finally managed to notice something vague.

The skull woman’s bronze casket gave him a similar feeling to the bronze pillar that the giant corpse was pinned to.

The High Deity ofHuang Quan is definitely not as simple as she seems.

Even the Heavenly Emperor has already changed twice, but the High Deity of Huang Quan hasn’t…

While Gu Qing Shan was thinking that, he sensed something.

A mystical fluctuation was radiating across the Skinning Hell.
