Chapter 1016 - : Ruin of The God of Life
Chapter 1016: Ruin of The God of Life
“What do we do now?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“Rest” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Ye Fei Li exhaled deeply, pulled out a gaming console from his chest, and said: “That’s good. I’ve just made it to the hardest stage, if I died today that would’ve been left unfinished forever”
He found a chair and plopped himself onto it.
Started up the console.
And began playing.
Gu Qing Shan silently shook his head.
Laura smiled: “Gu Qing Shan, what did you think of me calling you ‘master’ earlier?”
Gu Qing Shan stroked her head and praised: “Well done, that was perfect coordination”
Laura happily smiled.
“Are we really going to help the king explore the ruin?” she asked.
“I wanted to consult Boss about that” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Boss had already laid flat back onto the sofa again.
Hearing Gu Qing Shan, he closed his eyes and replied: “The God of Life is one of the few Deities who managed to escape the destruction of the Inner Plane, not only were they powerful, they should also know plenty of secrets so it isn’t a bad idea to take a look”
“Do you know something?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“Not really, but I assume that the Soul Shrieker is still scrambling to find us outside. Before coming back out, it would probably help our cause to understand ancient history” Boss replied.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then concluded:
“Then it’s decided, we’re going to take a look at the ruin of the God of Life”
He waved his hand towards Xuan Ya who was hovering in the air and called her over.
“For a covenant, a three-year-old child doesn’t have the ability to sign one on his own accord, but as his mother, you have a direct bloodline connection that should allow you to help him sign certain contracts”
Gu Qing Shan spoke very seriously:
“At this moment, I’m offering for your son to join us”
“Once he and you join, you will be considered people on ‘my side'”
“Just now, I signed a very vague covenant with the king. Due to the concerns of his own safety, he placed great emphasis on the ceasefire but failed to realize that it was mutual. Although we can’t harm him in in any way, he would be unable to harm anybody in my group as well”
“Any member from the royal family side who approached you with malice would immediately suffer the consequences from that covenant”
“So, make your choice”
Xuan Ya was extremely glad and hurriedly nodded.
“She said that she is willing”
Ye Fei Li relayed the message without looking up.
Gu Qing Shan said; “Then it’s decided. You have to say this exactly: ‘My child and I are willing to join the Blade Edge Pledge'”
“The Blade Edge Pledge?”
Zhang Ying Hao’s voice came.
He had only just come back in after closing the door.
“That’s right, the two sides that I set up in the covenant was the royal family and the Blade Edge Pledge”
Gu Qing Shan continued to explain: “The Blade Edge Pledge is the team that Barry and Kitty formed with their comrades, so it has enough basis for a covenant, there shouldn’t be any issues”
Zhang Ying Hao nodded and sighed: “This way, the royal family wouldn’t be able to act against them any longer, without anyone’s knowledge, you’ve perfectly sheltered both her and her child”
Meanwhile, Xuan Ya had already begun to speak.
“My child and I are willing to join the Blade Edge Pledge” she silently declared.
Following her words, two faint sparks of light descended from above, covering Xuan Ya and her son.
This was the power of the covenant.
Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag and took out a formation plate to arrange some formations around the sleeping child.
“To avoid any unnecessary troubles, I’ll use a spirit energy baptism formation to make sure that your child remains in his sleep. This will improve his potential as he wakes up, a process that does more good than harm”
“I’ve also arranged an appropriate amount of defensive formations”
“For the next few days, he will remain asleep, up until I can resurrect you—— once you’re alive again, you can meet him in person”
Hearing that, Xuan Ya opened her eyes wide, her mouth gaping open in shock.
“That’s right, don’t be shocked, I can resurrect you”
Gu Qing Shan said.
…
On the other side.
The king made his way back to the palace.
He silently sat on his throne, contemplating the most recent events.
「 Father, did everything go well? 」
A tall, handsome man walked up to the lower steps of the stairs leading up to the throne and asked.
「 Far from it, the only thing we can do right now is to silently wait 」the king replied.
「 Father… what of the matter regarding the guardian? 」the prince asked.
「 She is dead, unfortunately, her child lives on. Send your men over to keep an eye on that place, once they leave, come inside and kill that child with your own hands 」
The handsome prince was hesitant to answer, apparently wanting to refuse.
The king’s gaze turned firm as he solemnly shouted: 「 Don’t you understand? Once the bloodline of the royal family and the guardian clan mixes, only one of two outcomes shall ever occur. Either the child dies before they reach three years old, or they will absorb the power of two royal family members and quickly develop a brand-new Divine Skill 」
「 For the last three years, I’ve waited for that child to die, but he has managed to live on! 」
The king caught the prince’s shoulders with his hands, shouting: 「 The only people left who still have the royal family bloodline are you, me, and that child. Do you want your power to be absorbed, slowly turning into a useless husk of your previous self? 」
「 No, I do not want such a thing! 」the prince fearfully answered.
When the king was about to say something else, his expression changed.
He released his hands and pushed the prince away
The king displayed an amiable smile and told the ones who came from afar: 「 Welcome, my esteemed guests. I believe this means you’ve made your decision? 」
The fluctuations of spatial warp slowly manifested in the middle of the royal palace.
Gu Qing Shan’s group appeared in the palace.
“Indeed, we’ve decided to help you explore that ruin in exchange for your help to capture or get rid of the four Deities”
Gu Qing Shan replied.
The king heartily laughed and stood up: 「 Then please follow me, after signing the covenant, we shall leave for the ruin right away 」
“Very well, please lead the way” Gu Qing Shan replied.
The king walked down his throne and threw one last glance at the prince.
「 Hmph! Quickly get to it! 」
He sent his voice.
「 Understood! 」
The prince nodded and turned to leave the palace.
While the king led them towards another direction.
He led Gu Qing Shan’s group through various palace structures, complicated mechanisms, secret passages, and finally arrived at a certain sealed underground room.
「 Let us sign our covenant first before anything else, shall we? 」the king smiled and said.
“I only have one issue” Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 Please go ahead and say it 」
“According to our previous covenant, we currently cannot harm one another, but as we’re here to help you explore the ruin, we can’t go in blindly. I want you to share all the information you have before and during our exploration of the ruin”
After a bit of thought, the king nodded: 「 That is fine 」
“Then we have ourselves a cooperation” Gu Qing Shan smiled.
Both sides quickly signed the covenant.
The king’s heart calmed down again.
——-information sharing and such is trivial, the leftover treasure trove of the God of Life is the more important matter.
Although he already knew that the other side was filthy rich, he was still surprised to hear that the other side really didn’t want any part of it.
That was why he accepted this deal so easily.
Due to the covenant, neither side could harm the other.
After entering the ruin, the things that both sides wanted were also different.
There was no conflict of interest.
——-there couldn’t be a better foundation for cooperation than this.
「 Please come with me 」
The king smiled gladly.
He brought their group to the innermost chamber.
The king cut the palm of his hand and smeared it all over the wall.
Sensing his blood, the wall split apart and slowly moved to either side with a heavy noise.
Soon enough, a large bronze gate appeared in front of everyone.
The gate was completely bare without anything on it, but it gave off a thick stench of blood.
A deep sense of vicissitude could be felt from it.
“I have a bad feeling about this” Zhang Ying Hao unnaturally spoke up.
“I feel the same” Boss replied.
The bronze gate was silent and gave off no sound, but they felt as if it was constantly exuding billions of faint cries and sobs.
The king explained:
「 From a very long time ago, this gate had been here to seal something within. Although I don’t know what it was, if this place was left behind by the God of Life, the benefits hidden within must also be great 」
Gu Qing Shan asked: “Did your ancestors leave any words regarding this gate?”
The king didn’t really want to answer that, but he felt a sense of alarm ringing in his heart.
This is the power of the covenant.
I have to answer this question.
Otherwise the power of the covenant will wound me heavily.
The king had no choice but to answer: 「 It was related to a certain secret of the Deities. My ancestors only left a single statement: This gate can only be opened at the moment of ultimate crisis for the royal family. Furthermore, it can only be opened once, there would be no second chance 」
「 Because of this, we need to move against it with everything we have 」
Gu Qing Shan evaluated this large bronze gate again and replied: “No problem”
“What do we do now?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“Rest” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Ye Fei Li exhaled deeply, pulled out a gaming console from his chest, and said: “That’s good. I’ve just made it to the hardest stage, if I died today that would’ve been left unfinished forever”
