Chapter 491: The Crystal Flower
Translated by: La0o9
Proofreader: Arya
The gates of the Justice Iron Fist Club swung open.
A group of people staggered outside.
A group of masculine men, even when their faces were completely swollen, the excited expressions they had couldn’t be hidden.
“That really hurt, did you go all out with that last punch?” one of them clutched his stomach as he asked another.
“Of course, if I don’t go all out, how would I beat you” the other answered.
“Did you use your powers?”
“Of course not! Barry’s eyes are still razor sharp, I didn’t use anything but raw strength for that one!” the man protested.
“Hm, then I lost fair and square” the one asking seemed satisfied.
“Let’s go” one of them called out.
“Good fight today”
“Let’s do it again next time”
“See you”
The men bumped their fists as a way of saying goodbye.
Then they all moved their bodies a bit.
Space itself was being broken through by them, forming black holes.
As they entered those holes, they all went in different directions before disappearing with a trace.
Seeing that, Gu Qing Shan’s brows twitched.
It was that simple for them to leave the Super Dimensional world?
They are able to go pass millions of worlds with just their bodies.
What kind of power do you need to be able to do that?
While he was thinking, all the lights turned off inside the empty club.
A final man came out from the club.
He was wearing a leather jacket with a cigarette in his mouth and a black fedora on his head, just like the golden statues depicted.
Badleg Barry.
Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but look down at his lower half.
———a pair of ripped jeans.
Phew, at least that part isn’t the same.
Badleg Barry was really cautious, stopping from afar.
“Kitty, who is that?” he asked.
“Not sure, but he’s not a debtor” the girl called Kitty was still looking down on her manuscript and kept writing as she answered.
Not a debtor.
Hearing that, Barry became calm again, returning to his lazy demeanor.
“Is he flirting with you?” he casually asked.
“Stop with those rotten words, I’m not going to finish today’s chapter on time” Kitty was still busy writing.
“Is that any way to talk to your big brother?” Barry complained.
Kitty’s swinging tail stopped.
She put the pen down and looked up at Barry: “If I don’t finish in time, where is the monthly royalty money going to come from? Without money, what are we going to eat?”
Barry stubbornly objected: “We can just eat space monsters”
“What? Randomly grab another one of them to eat?” Kitty coldly scoffed, “last time I was on the can for 3 days, you for 4 days, you still haven’t had enough of that?”
Barry could only breathe out some cigarette smoke and begrudgingly look away.
Gu Qing Shan: “…”
The mysterious and dignified image he had of Super Dimensional worlds completely collapsed.
From the glowing adverts outside the building, this pair of brother and sister seems to owe a lot of money.
To the point that earning a daily meal was now a problem.
Barry stopped teasing his sister and turned to Gu Qing Shan: “A foreign young man… what business do you have at my place?”
“Are you Barry? Badleg Barry?” Gu Qing Shan asked to confirm.
“Of course, couldn’t be any realer than this” Barry answered.
Gu Qing Shan then took the glittering transparent flower from his Inventory Bag.
“Xiao Die told me to bring this flower to you” Gu Qing Shan said.
Barry was shocked looking at the flower.
His eyes were focused on the flower as he went into reminiscent.
“Xiao Die huh, I remember, it was that cry baby of a little girl”
Barry mumbled.
“At the time, her world was already thoroughly destroyed, I only barely managed to make it there to save her alone”
Barry casually threw the cigarette away, solemnly taking the flower with both hands.
This was his very rare serious side.
He lightly placed the flower under his nose and sniffed.
The flower then turned into a six-winged tiny girl wearing green pants and a glowing stick.
The girl was only as tall as an adult’s hand and looked very delicate.
She waved the stick at Barry while chanting a mystical incantation.
Hearing it, Gu Qing Shan instantly recognized it as the language of Pixies.
A rough translation would be: “May all malice be washed away by the torrent of black magic”
As the green pants girl finished her spell, she giggled at Barry and disappeared.
Barry seemed to become slightly more spirited.
He closed his eyes and carefully sensed himself.
“It was the real deal” he muttered in surprise.
Kitty had already stopped her hand and stared straight at this a while ago from her writing desk.
She asked in disbelief: “It was a real Pixie Crystal Flower?”
“It was, I can feel my leg getting better, the hex of 8000 Daemons are dissipating, in just a few days I’ll be able to dispel it completely” Barry tried kicking a bit with his leg, clearly shocked as well.
As if he really couldn’t believe it either.
Suddenly, he threw a punch at the sky.
This was a silent punch.
But Gu Qing Shan could see space around it splitting in half, like a pair of curtains being slowly opened.
Actually, this was more comparable to the Gods of legends, using unimaginable power to split the never-ending sea in two.
Space itself had made way, as countless visions of worlds were stacked on top of each other, layer upon layer appearing above right before their eyes.
This punch had broken through the limit of space, making countless worlds in the space vortex show themselves.
“That is Green Drake world” Kitty pointed at one of the visions and said.
“And Dark Flame Prison” Barry pointed at another image that had just appeared.
“Look! It’s Angel Port! You managed to reach Angel Port again!” Kitty exclaimed excitedly.
“Not yet, that’s the Sage and Fool Strife world” Barry pointed at another image and said.
Kitty’s tears were rolling.
“Bro, you managed to reach the Strife Zone again!”
“You’ve finally recovered!”
“I did, who would’ve thought, Xiao Die managed to find me a real Pixie Crystal Flower” Barry was also emotional.
“I looked for so many years without being able to find the world of Pixies, how did a little girl like herself manage to do it?” Kitty was confused.
“Xiao Die is a scroll user, as well as a highly talented God’s Chosen, she might’ve had a rare encounter” Barry smiled and dismissed it.
He looked at Gu Qing Shan and sincerely spoke: “Thank you for delivering such a precious thing”
“No need, this is a favor I accepted from Xiao Die” Gu Qing Shan replied.
With the War God UI, of course he knew what this flower was.
A legendary wondrous item.
But from the very start, Gu Qing Shan only carefully put the flower away before taking it back out after meeting Barry.
Barry was confused: “Xiao Die sent you, then where is she? Why didn’t she go find me herself?”
Gu Qing Shan didn’t know how to answer that so he changed the subject: “Ah, right, she also wanted me to send you a message”
Barry made a listening expression.
“She said she hoped that everything is fine with you”
As soon as Gu Qing Shan finished, a bunch of scrolls jumped out from his body.
Under their three shocked expressions, the scrolls linked together to form a large portrait.
It depicted a cute little girl sitting on a swing eating sweets.
The girl seemed to sense something so she stood up from the swing and looked around.
But she saw nothing.
So the little girl appeared a bit anxious.
“What do we do with such a spell?” Barry turned to ask Kitty.
“We need to give her guidance to let her break through super dimensional space” Kitty quickly told him.
“Got it!”
Barry lightly flicked the scrolls.
Something seemed to have been broken by Barry.
The very next moment, the little girl managed to see Barry and Kitty.
She smiled joyfully as she greeted them.
“Uncle Barry, big sis Kitty, long time no see!” the young girl spoke.
“Ah, what excellent scroll prowess, Xiao Die you really grow up so quick. No wonder you were about to pick such a legendary flower” Kitty crossed her arms and commented.
Barry also nodded in understanding.
From just that, he could see that she was already vastly stronger from before, almost reaching his level at his peak.
“Uncle Barry, thank you for saving my life back then” Xiao Die sincerely thanked him.
“No need, no need” Barry raised one fist and smiled, “I only happened to save you. Really, I have to thank you for being able to find a Pixie Crystal Flower for me”
Xiao Die said nothing else and just looked at Barry.
Barry teasingly spoke: “How many years has it been, why are you still using the same appearance from back then? At least let me see how well you’ve grown up”
“I’m very ugly now” Xiao Die lowered her head.
Barry noticed something was off.
His voice became a bit more gentle, asking: “Did someone bully you? Come, tell uncle, uncle will catch the bad man”
“There isn’t” Xiao Die hurriedly smiled, “it’s that I had just given birth, I’m still in my recuperation stage so my appearance is a bit hard to look at”
Barry suddenly understood.
Human females do run into that kind of problem during after pregnancy.
He exchanged looks with Kitty and laughed.
“Our little girl had really grown, you even have a child of your own now”
“That’s right, time really does fly”
They were both joyfully sighing about it.
Xiao Die took the chance to glance at Gu Qing Shan, begging him with her eyes.
Gu Qing Shan understood what she wanted to say.
He lightly nodded.
Seeing that, Xiao Die smiled at him.
“Now or later, please don’t tell them the truth”
“Alright”
“Thank you”
This was their silent conversation.
