Laura comfortably settled down on Gu Qing Shan’s shoulder.

Silence surrounded them.

The guards exchanged confused looks.

Frost of the Cold Night Ilya opened her eyes wide, unable to believe what she was seeing.

Chronologically, the following things had just happened in a row.

Gu Qing Shan rode the black horse out alone.

Laura vowed to become a suitable sovereign.

Gu Qing Shan returned.

After her vow, Laura obediently sat down on his shoulder.

The guards all exchanged glances, looking at each other for an answer.

Isn’t this a harmonious scene?

But why does it feel like something is wrong…

Fucking hell!

Of course something is wrong!

The sovereign of the Bramble Birds is sitting on that man’s shoulder!

Laura quickly noticed the strange atmosphere.

Especially the threatening air radiating from Ilya.

With a casual expression, Laura said: “Gu Qing Shan, this is our Bramble Bird Kingdom’s General, Frost of the Cold Night Ilya”

“Ilya, this is Gu Qing Shan, he helped me escape from Triste’s pursuit. On the way here, he has saved my life many times”

This was to explain the current situation clearly.

Ilya could only nod.

“Thank you for saving our sovereign” she gave him her thanks.

“Ah, you’re welcome, I only did what should have been done” Gu Qing Shan quickly replied.

They exchanged some pleasantries.

The atmosphere calmed down a bit.

Ilya took a deep breath, wanting to say something, but noticed the nervousness and begging look in Laura’s gaze, she sighed.

Very well, Laura is young, but she has always had her own reason for doing everything.

Not to mention, ever since they showed up on the plains, Laura had been sitting on his shoulder already.

Seems like Laura has recognized him.

After losing all of her family members, having someone as a warm father figure is beneficial for her growth.

And then again, during this battle, not just Laura’s but my own life was also saved by him.

When the situation took a turn for the worst, it was him that led the sieging ghost army away.

But then…

He doesn’t seem to be very strong?

How did he accomplish such a feat…

Something is strange here.

I need to find an opportunity to ask Laura myself.

Disregarding Ilya’s inner thoughts for now, the group quickly gathered and headed back towards Tidal city.

Deep in the night.

The shining golden light that had been continuing for a while slowly faded.

All the Entropy Ghosts had infiltrated this world, and without any stimulations, the Old God’s barrier gradually returned to a dormant state.

The darkness of the night fell.

There wasn’t a lot of sound or commotion in the city.

There were simply too few people that could endure the intense invasion of the ghost army.

Even those who could transform into ancient life forms were in the same state, there were only 20 of these so-called Divine Seeds left.

These Divine Seeds split into two groups, one group escorted old man Jiao into the divine temple of the city, the other headed outside the city walls, trying to repair it.

Every free hand was dispatched to help repair their only defensive means remaining.

Frost of the Cold Night Ilya had brought Laura away to find her a place to rest.

She needed to talk with Laura alone.

Gu Qing Shan wandered around the city by himself.

Since he changed the entire situation of the war by himself, there wasn’t anyone that tried to order him to do anything.

After taking a short stroll, Gu Qing Shan decided to pull one of the Divine Seeds away to ask a few things.

“Where is old man Jiao being taken to?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“To receive our tribe’s test of bestowal” the Divine Seed replied.

Since he was feeling grateful towards Gu Qing Shan for dispatching the ghost calamity, the Divine Seed answered as he was asked.

“Test of bestowal?” Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.

“Yeah, the goal of those ghosts and demonized are the treasure of our tribe, the heritage of the Old Gods”

“Why do you know that’s what they want?”

“A messenger was sent over several times, but since we kept refusing to hand over our tribe’s treasure to them, they started this war”

Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan noticed the weight of this matter.

[Origin] withheld nothing to attack this world in order to find the item that would help it evolve.

This item was supposedly special materials left behind by the Old Gods all over the 900 million World Layers, capable of helping all non-organic life forms evolve.

The Divine Seed sighed: “Truthfully, over the course of our existence, our tribe has always been worshipping the heritage of the Old Gods without desires to take it for ourselves. But now that the situation had become so severe, we have to take its test to see if one of us could obtain it and trigger the power of the Gods to help us protect our home”

“Then, if you had old man Jiao take the test, does that mean the rest of you have already failed?”

“It’s shameful to admit, but the tests of the Gods are simply too difficult. The test given to each person is also different, so none of us have managed to pass it yet”

“Aren’t there still a lot of you here?”

“Only those who are Divine Seeds in our tribe are qualified to take the test, normal tribesmen are unable to take the test, nor can they use the method left behind by the Gods to fuse with the heritage”

“So that’s why”

No wonder old man Jiao left so hurriedly.

If he could obtain that heritage of the Old Gods, [Origin]’s scheme will have failed.

So old man Jiao was the key to this.

But apparently, the tests are very hard, none of the Divine Seeds here managed to pass the test to obtain that thing.

Hopefully, old man Jiao will be able to.

If he also fails…

“What are you going to do with the treasure if old man Jiao also fails?” Gu Qing Shan quickly asked.

“Our tribe is the creation of Gods, we will never sell the heritage of the Gods for our own gain. We will fight to the very end, then destroy it!”

“Well said!” Gu Qing Shan praised him.

Even in the worst-case scenario, even if they have to destroy the treasure, they won’t leave it for the enemy to take.

That’s quite some backbone this tribe has.

If that’s the case, there won’t be any problems.

Gu Qing Shan was relieved.

At this point, a female voice came from behind him.

“Mr. Gu Qing Shan”

Gu Qing Shan turned around to see that it was Ilya.

“Where’s Laura?” he asked.

“Her Majesty is currently providing equipment for everyone”

“Ah”

“Mr. Gu Qing Shan, although the ghosts and revenants have retreated, I still have an uneasy feeling in my mind, so I was planning to scout the situation, would you be willing to accompany me on this?”

“No problem!”

Gu Qing Shan instantly agreed.

In truth, he himself also had a bad feeling about the situation.

“But you don’t seem like you’re fit to scout right now, rather it’d be better if you rest”

Gu Qing Shan evaluated her.

Ilya had quite a few terrible wounds on her body.

Although the bleeding had stopped, the wounds were still deep, if an intense battle occurred, she might not be able to fight at capacity.

“It’s fine, wounds like these are nothing big” Ilya laughed it off.

Gu Qing Shan went silent for a brief moment.

He then tapped his Inventory Bag and took out a pill.

“What is this?” Ilya received the pill and asked.

“An effective pill to mend external wounds”

Ilya sniffed it first before smiling.

“The six arts of cultivation, they are quite famous even among the infinite worlds, especially the art of formation and alchemy, I’ve always admired them”

Saying so, Ilya put the pill in her mouth, chewed and swallowed.

Looking at her consuming the pill, Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but feel like this was a familiar scene…

He then faced-palmed himself.

“Ah, I’m sorry, I forgot to tell you, this pill has an effect to mend external wounds very quickly, but it also has a detoxifying effect on your body”

Detoxifying effect?

Ilya had a strange look on her face.

After a bit, she lightly scowled and clutched her stomach.

Indeed, this feeling is…

“Excuse me!”

Leaving a few curt words, she disappeared on the spot.

Gu Qing Shan was still trembling a bit.

Her wounds are really bad, so it’ll probably hurt a lot worse than old man Jiao when she does ‘the thing’.

Gu Qing Shan breathed in deeply and stopped thinking more about it.

…is she going to beat me up for this?

Ok, let’s think about it a bit more next time.

Even if it’s out of goodwill, there are other ways.

So what should I do now?

Gu Qing Shan looked around.

The Divine Seed had already climbed to the top of the city walls, transformed into a mountain-like monster to repair it.

There wasn’t anyone around here.

Then I’ll just wait here for her a bit, hm, just a bit.

Blades probably won’t be clashing over such a small matter.
