More than once, Gu Nan had doubts about the relationship between this world and the game in his past life. Will things that exist in the game also exist here?
Is this a parallel world, or another era inside the game world?
The appearance of the Lan siblings confirmed one thing—at least the God of Luxuriant Blossoms, Rolensia, was alive and well in this world.
And now, Lan Si’s explanation allowed Gu Nan to truly understand just what kind of existence this world was.
Lan Si called the world she came from the “World of Gods.” Its history was similar to the game in Gu Nan’s previous life, but it wasn’t exactly the same. It was completely composed of the various gods’ Divine Kingdoms and a main world.
On the other hand, Gu Nan was currently in a world called the “Myriad Heavens Universe,” which consisted of 33 main Heavens and 72 lesser Realms.
“33 main Heavens and 72 lesser Realms… Star Ruler, the ruler of a world. So that’s what it means.” When the two worlds were placed side by side in front of Gu Nan’s eyes, many details from the past also came to mind.
Based on this world’s power system, the cultivation realm above Void Cutter was Star Ruler Realm. Gu Nan originally believed that Star Ruler merely corresponded to Tier 5, which was nowhere near as powerful as the strongest characters in the game.
But according to Lan Si, the true powerhouses of the Myriad Heavens Universe were no weaker than the gods, and some were even as powerful as the main gods!
What was a main god? Only those above Tier 11 were qualified to be called main gods.
For example, beings like the Lord of Light and the King of Darkness and Destruction were Tier 15 existences.
No NPC in the game was able to surpass Tier 15. Even the past life’s Gu Nan was only able to complete the Third Round and reach Tier 16 after exhausting all the Evil Value in the world.
But unfortunately, he transmigrated into this world right as he advanced to Tier 16.
“Tier 5 is when players begin to construct their Divine Kingdom. When the Divine Kingdom is built and the divine fire is lit, won’t that mean they’re the ruler of a world?” Gu Nan chuckled, finally understanding the meaning behind the words “Star Ruler.”
A true Star Ruler would correspond to the level of an official god in his past life’s game.
Gu Nan was suddenly glad about this string of events—if not for Lan Si’s appearance and the questions he asked on a whim, he might not be able to see through the essence of the world until he advanced to Tier 5.
‘If the world in my previous life’s game does indeed exist, then is my transmigration an indication of something?’
Gu Nan rubbed his chin thoughtfully, his gaze resting on the mountain peaks in the distance.
……
“That’s what happened. I can tell you right now that even if we join hands, I’m afraid we still won’t be able to defeat him.”
Yue Qianleng gave him the whole story, then looked on with a sneer as Wang Chen scratched his head anxiously with a conflicted expression.
Wang Chen really was caught unprepared. If he’d known this would be the result, he’d never have agreed to Qin Xuanji’s conditions and requested Yue Qianleng’s help to deal with Gu Nan.
Qin Xuanji couldn’t possibly tell everyone the identity of the one backing her, so her public identity was merely a member of the Bloodline Alliance from the Sixth Region.
“Plus, Gu Nan is all alone with no attachments, while we still have our organization’s foundations to consider. We can’t afford to play with him to the end,” Wang Chen kept muttering, as if he wanted to find some excuse for himself, and also as if he was talking to Yue Qianleng.
But when he finished, he didn’t hear Yue Qianleng respond, so he could only continue, “For now, we can only hand Qin Xuanji over… she’s just an ordinary member, after all.”
Qin Xuanji suffered heavy injuries from Gu Nan’s earlier punch, so she naturally had to return to the Alliance’s branch office to recuperate. She was staying in a villa right now.
Yue Qianleng still didn’t speak and merely sneered in response. He saw the shadow of the King of the Deep Sea and knew that Qin Xuanji had a powerful backing, but he kept his mouth shut.
Wang Chen was trapped between a rock and a hard place, and neither option would be good for him. However, Yue Qianleng was under no obligation to inform him of this.
Yue Qianleng’s lack of response made Wang Chen hesitate.
He asked tentatively, “By the way, could it be possible that Gu Nan merely used some kind of secret technique, and he’s not actually that powerful in reality?”
“Why don’t you fight him and find out?” Yue Qianleng said contemptuously.
Wang Chen was about to reply when he felt a frightening power descend, followed by a loud noise.
He hurriedly ran to the window and saw a figure standing in mid-air, swinging a sword hundreds of meters long down onto the ground.
At least dozens of people in the villa were injured or killed from this blow alone.
“Have Qin Xuanji come out, or I’ll slaughter everyone in this place,” Gu Nan’s cold voice traveled over.
Wang Chen had no time to think anymore and rushed towards the door— ‘I need to tie Qin Xuanji up and send her over as soon as possible, before more people die!’
But ultimately, he was still too slow. In other words, no hot-blooded person would stand by and watch as the enemy attacked their home like this.
Gu Nan stood in mid-air, while several figures immediately appeared in front of him.
At the head were three men and one woman, all with scowls on their faces.
One of the elders was so furious that his white hair rose up from his head. He said fiercely, “Impudent Junior! I’ve lived for hundreds of years, but it’s the first time I heard someone say he wants to slaughter my Bloodline Alliance…”
Slash!
A pich-black sword flitted by, directly cutting the old man in half. His upper body was cut off from the right shoulder to the left waist, and the wound was so smooth that his upper body slowly slipped down.
Half of the old man fell down, revealing Gu Nan holding a sword with one hand, a sneer on his face.
These people only had Infinitesimal Stage power at best. With Gu Nan’s current strength, he didn’t even need to use Blade of the Sanguine King to deal with them. The shadow sword alone was enough for an instant kill.
“You…” The remaining people were both surprised and angry. They were about to use their full power when a voice stopped them.
“Everyone, please wait!” A female voice rang out from afar. A woman quickly rushed over and landed between Gu Nan and the rest of the Bloodline Alliance.
This woman was dressed very similarly to the previous San Wei, but her temperament was the exact opposite. She had an extremely seductive and coquettish feeling, which was a fatal attraction for men.
As soon as the woman arrived, she first bowed respectfully to Gu Nan. “Mr. Gu, please show mercy. The branch head has already gone to arrest Qin Xuanji and will give her to Mr. Gu later.”
Her words made the others change expressions at the same time. “Lord Liu Wei[1], he just killed Elder Zhao!”
Liu Wei turned calmly and said, “Mr. Gu is a distinguished guest of the Alliance. What happened to Elder Zhao was just a misunderstanding… If you have something to say, then say it to Branch Head Wang.”
These people shut their mouths when Liu Wei brought out Branch Head Wang’s name. They were furious but didn’t dare to speak, and their faces turned red one after another.
Liu Wei flattened her mouth disdainfully, then turned to look at Gu Nan, revealing a sweet smile. “Mr. Gu, why don’t you come down with me to rest first…”
Gu Nan was still holding a sword, ready to attack, but the cold smile on his face was even more glaring.
The next second, the sword moved again, and the tip of the sword pierced Liu Wei’s heart, instantly cutting off all her vitality.
Liu Wei stared at Gu Nan in disbelief. She could no longer speak because of the blood loss, but she couldn’t figure out why he attacked her.
“I always keep my word.” Gu Nan slowly pulled back the sword. “Since I said I’ll slaughter everyone here, I’ll slaughter everyone.”
Note: [1] Liu Wei: Name means Six Tails/Sixth Tail; she’s related to San Wei (Three Tails/Third Tail)
