Chapter 1381: No one to protect you

Lively music.

Flashing pink and red light throughout the entire bar.

The flashing light illuminated each of the yaksha masks turn by turn, completely wiping out the razor-sharp atmosphere from before.

You Tian Gui said: “Earlier you hid under the Ominous Demon Tower, now under the Church——– are you that afraid of us?”

Gu Qing Shan replied with a smug expression: “Unless other people pay me to, I don’t really like to kill people. I’d rather just drink, sing, make some food, and enjoy a peaceful life”

You Tian Gui looked at Gu Qing Shan, feeling a sense of absurdity.

Has this Hitman always been this way?

According to information, Elder Du only got into a small bit of conflict with this Hitman.

Elder Du’s entire group were murdered that same night.

——if Elder Du was truly killed by this Dragon King of Atrocity Jail, he must be the kind of expert killer whose wits are only surpassed by his cruelty.

And definitely not seeking refuge under every possible group just because he isn’t willing to right like he’s doing right now.

—–did I make a mistake in my judgement?

When an absolute matter suddenly became uncertain, You Tian Gui stood still, silently falling into thought.

...that’s not necessarily the case.

There are two possible situations.

Firstly, considering this Hitman’s reaction, I had truly made a mistake, and the culprit was someone else entirely.

Secondly, there was a hidden reason why Elder Du was murdered by this Hitman, and the reason he isn’t willing to clash head-on was that he had something else planned.

In that case, I still need to kill this Hitman.

Even if he isn’t the culprit, we can use his death to announce to Void City that this was the outcome for anyone who tried to kill an Elder of the Wraith realm.

Not only would this resolve the humiliation of the Wraith realm, but it would also deceive the real culprit—— if the culprit was someone entirely, they would definitely let their guard down, which makes it easier for me to silently continue investigating the truth.

Then...

Kill him.

You Tian Gui made a gesture behind his back, then spoke: “Dragon King, don’t you think you’ve failed to account for something?”

“What would that be?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Always relying on someone else’s protection won’t allow you to live to the very end” You Tian Gui replied.

The wraiths behind him suddenly activated two Life Talismans and shouted: “Wraith realm Revolution!”

The bar disappeared.

The entire world suddenly faded away.

“Be careful! This is a World Technique, they’re trying to take us to another world, that must be a place filled with their deathtraps——”

Crow hurriedly said.

Gu Qing Shan abruptly cut him off and shouted: “Crow, your predictions!”

Crow also reacted quickly and corrected himself: “But this World Technique will suddenly malfunction, they won’t successfully take us to their destination, instead, everyone will arrive at a foreign world”

Just as he finished, the Life Talismans in the wraiths’ hands burnt completely away.

Teleportation runes manifested out of nowhere to form a talisman array.

Watching that talisman array, Gu Qing Shan suddenly found himself being able to understand them.

In the Saint Spirit world, he was able to learn Red Wraith’s [Wicked Thoughts Burning Spirit] through the jade gourd pendant Adorable.

——Red Wraith was one of the two rulers of the Wraith realm, his expertise when it came to Talisman arts must have been the peak of the Wraith realm, and since [Wicked Thoughts Burning Spirit] was a talisman designed for the Roland Emperor, it must have been among the most powerful Life Talismans he had.

Gu Qing Shan had to spend a total of 100 million Soul Points to completely dissect [Wicked Thoughts Burning Spirit] with [War God Skills], through which he gained a deep level of the Wraith realm’s Life Talismans.

At this point, he could easily understand and see through the majority of the Wraith realm’s common talismans.

——back then, it was for the sake of learning the wraith’s Life Talismans that he purposely let himself be afflicted by Red Wraith’s [Wicked Thoughts Burning Spirit] without any resistance.

And it was at this moment that it paid off.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly put up his hand and began to draw a faint yellow light in mid-air using his finger.

The yellow light swirled like snakes and dragons before instantly manifesting a rune.

This rune became dim and shattered.

After all, this was his first time drawing a wraith rune, he failed.

Gu Qing Shan felt heavy, but swiftly moved his hand again to draw another rune.

This rune gave off an intense golden glow.

——Success!

Standing against him, You Tian Gui exclaimed in disbelief as he saw this rune: “That’s impossible!”

The rune that Gu Qing Shan drew suddenly faded into the air before manifesting inside the talisman array.

The entire talisman array began to become twisted, even the fluctuations it gave off became unstable.

“Oh no, Wraith Might sir, the teleportation has been directed slightly off-course!” one wraith shouted.

While it felt like a long time, everyone only happened in an instant.

A second later.

Heaven and earth turned around themselves.

A heavy impact could be felt.

Everyone fell on the ground, then quickly stood back up.

A blanket of lush green plants surrounded them.

A great tree took up their entire visions, some small animals could even be seen running from them out of fright.

——this was an unknown world.

You Tian Gui stood on top of a tree branch, looking towards Gu Qing Shan and Crow.

What that Hitman called Curt Death Silver Crow said had actually become the truth.

But compared to that, even more unbelievable was the fact that Dragon King of Atrocity Jail knew how to use Life Talismans.

——furthermore, it was an exceptionally high level of Life Talisman technique that managed to alter the entire teleportation talisman array with a single rune.

It wasn’t just You Tian Gui, but the other wraiths also noticed this.

They fell into a strange silence.

Against them.

Gu Qing Shan was a bit irritated.

The art of Life Talisman was supposed to be a Trump card I was saving against the Wraith realm, but I was forced to use it prematurely.

It was truly dangerous just now—-

The wraith’s prepared destination would definitely have been laced with countless layers of death traps; as soon as Crow, Yu Juan, and I are transported there, we would have had nearly no chance of survival.

Life Talismans techniques are extremely fast and flexible, which makes them hard to both defend against and destroy.

That was the reason why he had to use a Life Talisman technique just now.

Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[You’re performed a Life Talisman technique]

[Life Talisman techniques require the lifeforce of others as casting catalyst]

[You’ve spent Soul Points instead of lifeforce to perform this Life Talisman instead, using 500 Soul Points in total]

Gu Qing Shan relaxed slightly.

He currently had over 200 million Soul Points, so using up 500 wasn’t anything to fuss over.

You Tian Gui spoke: “Dragon King of Atrocity Jail, I know your background very well. You were originally a Fear Fiend who came from the 900 million World Layers who happened to save a receptionist of the Hitman Guild, at the same time saving a lot of the Guild’s assets, which allowed you to enter Void City”

His killing intent abruptly rose.

“Originally, killing Elder Du would have already been a great matter, but I didn’t think you also knew how to use Life Talismans”

“This is a unique talisman art of our Wraith realm; how could you grasp it?”

Gu Qing Shan sighed and didn’t say anything.

—-I really didn’t think things would get to this.

You Tian Gui gestured with his hand behind his back.

All the wraiths put their Life Talismans away and drew their weapons.

“Speak, Dragon King of Atrocity Jail, this is already your last chance”

You Tian Gui also brandished his spear and declared.

“You’re trying to kill me?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Although this is an unknown world, it is still far away from Void City, the Ominous Demon Tower, the angels, and the Hitman Guild, none of them can protect you now” You Tian Gui stated.

Speaking of this, You Tian Gui couldn’t help recalling how his shoulders were pressed down by a bunch of burly men.

No one would be able to help you now.

Feeling his anger being vented, You Tian Gui mocked: “Coward who only knows how to hide behind others, there’s no one left to protect you now, prepare to die!”

Gu Qing Shan stayed silent for a moment.

“Let’s leave that for later, I need to do something first” Gu Qing Shan said.

He abruptly drew a sword and attacked his two companions.

“You dare ambush me!?”

Crow angrily shouted and drew his rapier.

Yu Juan also unleashed a blast of frigid air towards Gu Qing Shan.

The three of them were clearly fighting at full strength, exchanging near-fatal blows that instantly pushed the battle into its most intense phase.

“What?” You Tian Gui exclaimed in shock.

—–what’s going on? Why are they fighting among themselves?

The wraiths were also shocked to see this.

“Sir, what do we do now?” one of the wraiths whispered and asked.

You Tian Gui fell silent, sensing an unknown emotion pressuring his heart.

This damn Dragon King of Atrocity Jail, first invited someone for a drink, then suddenly put a lightbulb on his head, then casually used a Life Talisman. historical

And now, he suddenly attacked his companions.

——even if you ask me, how am I supposed to know what to do!!!?

You Tian Gui recollected himself a bit before a thought flashed through his mind.

Life Talismans are the core of the Wraith Saint’s power.

If he knows Life Talismans as well as he’s shown, could he be somehow related to the Wraith Saint?

You Tian Gui looked to the other side again.

Only to see Dragon King of Atrocity Jail attacking the other Hitman and the librarian with considerable force.

Perhaps...

There is something he can’t let these two know about?

With that in mind, You Tian Gui gave out his orders: “We’re going to remain still for now and silently observe any change”

“Understood, sir”

The wraiths then remained still, silently watching the three’s battle.

Only to see their clash growing increasingly more intense, with even shouting and screaming thrown into the mix.

A few moments passed.

A few dozen seconds passed.

Suddenly, the sound of dragon howls resounded throughout the sky.

A dragon suddenly descended from above.

「 I can sense someone fighting against the disciple of the old dragon boss man, are you provoking our dragon race? 」the dragon spoke in a thunderous voice.
