Time slowly passed.
Li An finally returned.
She brought with her a person dressed in all black clothes and a wide-brimmed hat as she returned to the Green Building.
As they entered, Gu Qing Shan was eating noodles, it was so hot that he was sweating, but he couldn’t stop himself at all.
This was a bowl of noodles that Qin Xiao Lou personally made for him, it was truly delicious.
“This personage is?”
Gu Qing Shan placed the bowl down and asked.
Li An didn’t say anything and simply stepped aside.
The person sat down directly in front of Gu Qing Shan and very slightly tilted their hat up to show their face.
A pair of indifferent eyes directly faced Gu Qing Shan’s gaze.
“Demon Dragon?” Gu Qing Shan whispered.
“I can’t stay here for too long, so I’ll make this quick” Demon Dragon replied.
“The Chosen Saints of Huang Quan don’t want to join my Immortal City?” Gu Qing Shan sharply asked.
“Huang Quan doesn’t need to join any Immortal City—— the Chosen Saints of Huang Quan are different from you all, we have other missions so we don’t need to face the Apocalypse” Demon Dragon answered.
“What’s the mission for you guys in Huang Quan?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“To look after the Divine Artifacts” Demon Dragon replied.
Gu Qing Shan’s expression changed: “All the Divine Artifacts of Samsara are currently being looked after by Huang Quan?”
“That’s right, as Huang Quan is the most secretive location within the Samsara, there are very few particularly powerful Apocalypses that can ignore the limits of life and death to directly attack Huang Quan. For that reason, the Divine Artifacts of the Samsara have all been hidden deep within Huang Quan, silently waiting for the Samsara’s Deific Authorities to be reestablished” Demon Dragon explained.
“—–That’s why the only responsibility for us Chosen Saints of Huang Quan is to defend Huang Quan”
Gu Qing Shan sighed, feeling a bit disappointed, then asked: “You arrived in Huang Quan so late, how did you manage to become a Chosen Saint?”
Hearing that, Demon Dragon appeared a bit awkward.
“I naturally had my own circumstances, you don’t need to know about that”
He stood up and continued: “In summary, Huang Quan will not get involved in the matters of the Human realm. Only after your powers have been reclaimed would Huang Quan once again show itself and allow travel between the worlds of life and death”
“—-That would also be when the Deities of the Samsara have been re-established, and each Deity would once again obtain their respective Divine Artifacts”
“Gu Qing Shan, all of us will be waiting for you at that moment”
Demon Dragon slowly faded into the void of space.
Gu Qing Shan remained still for a few moments before picking up the bowl of noodles and started eating again.
Qin Xiao Lou muses from the side: “Currently, the heavenly beings of the Heaven realm, the original Beast Kings of the Beast King realm, as well as the majority of the Human realm’s Chosen Saints are under the Heavenly Emperor’s command, while we only have the evil creatures and the humans of the Beast King realm, this is a bit difficult”
Gu Qing Shan asked: “Shifu, can the Asura race…”
“You shouldn’t try to get the Asura race involved. Very few members of this race would align themselves with evil creatures, while the others can’t participate at all, this is a fact recognized by the Samsara itself” Xie Dao Ling replied.
“—–What has the majority of the Asura race been doing?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“After the Samsara has been reset, the Asura clans of each world fragment would be reunited, what do you think they would do?” Xie Dao Ling asked him in return.
“Search for their relatives?” Qin Xiao Lou randomly guessed.
Li An chimed in: 『 No, they will challenge the clansmen they haven’t met ever before to a battle, day-to-day, every day, every moment of the day, up until they have a King to rule the entire Asura realm, only then would they finally take a short rest 』

Everyone fell silent.
The Asura race’s culture is… truly impressive in its own way…
Suddenly, a shadowy devil appeared from the void of space.
It excitedly handed something to Gu Qing Shan and said: 「 We of the Deep Shadow race found a few rocks, can you take a look and see if this is it? 」
Gu Qing Shan picked up the rock and examined it, noticing a natural heavenly aura drifting from the rock.
Lines of bloody red text appeared in the void of space:
[Merit Stone]
[After collecting 1000 Merit Stones, you will gain the qualifications to establish an Immortal City of your own on the underside of the world to fight against the incoming threat of the Apocalypse]
Gu Qing Shan put the rock away and spoke to the shadowy devil: “This is indeed the kind of rock we need, have your kin speed up a bit more, whether or not we evil creatures can establish a city of our own will depend on you all!”
The shadowy devil chuckled and replied: 「 Don’t worry, my kin are experts in the Elements Purgatory, so we’re already headed out in search of these rocks as fast as we can. The other evil creatures, on the other hand, are floundering around without actually doing anything 」
Gu Qing Shan thought briefly and said: “Li An, help me send a few words to everyone. Once the Immortal City has been established, the races that haven’t contributed any Merit Stones will have to wait until everyone else has evolved their Samsara Divine Skill before they get a chance to”
『 Very well 』Li An replied.
“And also—– the more Merit Stones that a race contributes, the more support the Immortal City will provide for them to evolve as thoroughly as they could” Gu Qing Shan added.
『 I will send my people out immediately 』
Li An signaled with her eyes to those behind her.
A group of Tianma girls then faded into the void of space.
Observing the entire process, the shadowy devil nodded in satisfaction and said: 「 I’ll be heading back out in search of these rocks 」
After saying that, it also faded into the void of space and disappeared.
A few moments later.
The Green Building became thoroughly rowdy.
Occasionally, an evil creature would appear out of thin air and hand their Merit Stones to Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan then decided to just put up a large wooden board, clearly listing the contributions of each race on it so that all the evil creatures could check as they pleased.
Those who hadn’t contributed would be immediately revealed, while the races earnestly searching for the Merit Stones were also shown.
“Will this be useful?” Qin Xiao Lou asked.
“It’s just a way to keep track, it’s open, public, and fair” Gu Qing Shan casually replied.
He climbed up a ladder and wrote a few large words on a wooden plank at the very top:
[Evil Kings Ranking]
[First place will be granted the Immortal City Title: King of Ten Thousand Evils, as well as the corresponding rewards and privileges]
[Second place will be granted the Immortal City Title: Master of Thousand Evils, as well as the corresponding rewards and privileges]
[Third place will be granted the Immortal City Title: Evil Lord, as well as the corresponding rewards and privileges]
[There are still many other benefits up for grabs—- generous treatments in exchange for Merit Stones!]
[Have you gotten any Merit Stones today?]
After writing it, Gu Qing Shan read through it one more time before nodding with satisfaction and climbing back down.
“Hey, third brother, you only wrote these awesome titles and rewards for others—– what about yours?” Qin Xiao Lou worriedly asked.
『 Your third brother doesn’t need any of that, he is the Immortal City Ruler 』Li An casually replied.
With this board here in the open, any evil creatures that come to turn in their Merit Stones would see it.
——the competition had already begun.
The inward flow Merit Stones started becoming increasingly larger.
Suddenly, the Green Building’s main gate was opened.
Shan Hai Qi Xia and her followers then entered.
“Didn’t you head out to collect Merit Stones? Why did you return?” Gu Qing Shan asked with surprise.
Shan Hai Qi Xia whispered to answer him: “Within the Beast King realm, we had good relations with some of the original Beast Kings, so they were willing to join our side”
“Oh? Is that true?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
That’s a good thing!
If that’s really the case, our forces would be bolstered a bit more!
“If you don’t feel safe, you can have the Tianma examine them—– but they had a condition for joining your side” Shan Hai Qi Xia replied.
“What’s the condition?” Gu Qing Shan asked again.
“They wanted to speak to you directly” Shan Hai Qi Xia answered.
「 Indeed, there are certain things that can only be said directly 」a voice spoke up from behind her.
Several muscular figures emerged from behind her, although they had hidden their faces with large-brimmed hats, it’s clear at first glance that they were Beast Kings from their physique.
Suddenly, Gu Qing Shan heard Xie Dao Ling’s voice in his mind:
“Be careful, dear disciple, the Beast King realm prefers the most primitive method of communication, so you must be careful to not get caught up in their pace”
Gu Qing Shan hesitantly asked: “The most primitive method? What is that?”
Xie Dao Ling didn’t answer.
Not receiving a response, Gu Qing Shan naturally remained cautious.
“Esteemed… Beast Kings, what is your condition?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 To better trust one another, we want marriage 」one of the Beast Kings said.
“Marriage?” Gu Qing Shan repeated in surprise.
It really is the most primitive method!
Shan Hai Qi Xia appeared shocked and hastily said: “Gu Qing Shan, I didn’t know about this either”
Gu Qing Shan shook his head to signal her not to say anything, then asked again: “What kind of marriage do you want?”
The Beast King from before explained: 「 Gu Qing Shan, we’ve heard many stories about you from Shan Hai Qi Xia, you are a decent talent who has achieved many great feats, that is why we have decided to offer this special privilege of marriage 」
The Beast Kings then quickly split up into two rows to reveal a stocky figure to Gu Qing Shan.
The stocky figure took off their wide brim hat.
Prickling wild charm.
Indeed, this was a legendary, renowned female pig demon!
A muscular and powerful waistline full of unique charm;
A pair of pig’s legs as tough as blades;
A dumbly cute pig’s snout;
All of this proved just how welcomed it was within the Beast King realm!
The Beast King from before was still talking: 「 Gu Qing Shan, only you are worthy of our Beast King races’ respect, only you are worthy of being with our most beautiful princess, now let us consolidate this marriage 」
Gu Qing Shan looked back, only to see the pig demon was three meters tall and three meters thick, its weight was unknown, but the floor was already cracking.
“No, I’m not worthy” Gu Qing Shan sternly refuted.
The atmosphere immediately changed.
「 Huh? You said that you aren’t worthy? Do you not want to accept the friendship of us Beast Kings? 」the Beast Kings roared in question.
Without waiting for Gu Qing Shan to speak, Xie Dao Ling spoke up again:
“Dear disciple, there are only two methods to make the Beast Kings accept you, the first is marriage, and the second is to beat them into submission”
Gu Qing Shan then sighed in relief and complained: “Why didn’t Shifu say that before, I was worried for nothing”
“In the past, I was in charge of only the important matters of the Samsara, standing at the peak of the Heaven realm, so I’ve never had the free time to look into the mortal realm. I’ve heard stories about the other realms, but have never truly seen them with my own eyes—— it was only now that I see what their marriage is actually about” Xie Dao Ling explained with a voice full of satisfaction.
Gu Qing Shan was speechless.
——so it turns out you were already prepared to see me turning into a joke just now.
That’s a bit much.
Hah, why is Shifu’s past life incarnation so mischievous, only ever being halfway reliable.
As expected, Shifu’s present life incarnation is still the most reliable.
Gu Qing Shan silently thought.
…
At another location in the Human realm.
In another city.
In another restaurant.
“Shifu, how long will it be until we find our senior brothers?” a gentle female voice asked.
“The presence of the Apocalypse is growing increasingly thicker, it’s already enveloped my senses” a childish female voice replied.
“Then… what do we do now?” another female voice filled with the vitality of youth asked.
“There’s no hurry, we need to collect some information in this city first——- Wan Er, go downstairs to that old man at the corner of the street, I feel that he might be suspicious. Buy a skewer of his candied haws and use that opportunity to ask for his background”
“…Shifu…”
