While these mysterious people were being trapped by Kitty——-
More and more people of this world noticed the disturbance happening in this place.
They quickly arrived from every direction.
A gate made of light opened up in the town.
Barry looked at the gate of light in interest and commented: “Ah? This is done through technology”
“A primitive spatial warp technique” Kitty judged.
Two people came out from the gate.
Ye Fei Li and Zhang Ying Hao.
“You’re back?” Zhang Ying Hao looked at Gu Qing Shan and asked.
“That’s right, I’m still dealing with some things right now so I haven’t had the time to greet you guys yet” Gu Qing Shan answered.
Ye Fei Li looked at Barry and Kitty, then asked: “We just heard from Impartial Goddess, the people you brought back instantly eliminated all the monsters—— these two GMs right here, right?” (TN: GM= Game masters, the author literally wrote ‘GM’ in the raws)
“Yep, it’s them” Gu Qing Shan smiled and he replied.
He then introduced the two sides.
“This is Zhang Ying Hao, and this is Ye Fei Li, they’re both my business partners and good friends” Gu Qing Shan said.
Barry nodded to greet them: “Hello, I’m Barry, Iron Fist Barry”
“I’m his little sister, Kitty, we came to play” Kitty tilted her head a bit and greeted them.
They both had very close and amiable attitudes.
Truthfully, this brother and sister pair had been poor since birth, after going through so much struggle and effort, they became peerless Combatants renowned across the 900 million World Layers——- and they were still poor. And since these were people related to Gu Qing Shan, they didn’t bother to put up a front.
Ye Fei Li was still a bit cautious as he greeted them: “Hello”
Zhang Ying Hao was much more experienced, extending both arms right away and greeted them in a much more welcoming manner: “Welcome both of you to our world. No matter what Gu Qing Shan said before, as long as you’re here, I’ll take care of all your spending”
—-Bullseyes!
No flashy words or courteous greetings would be more effective than this right here to get close to them.
Barry and Kitty both couldn’t help but smile brightly.
““Then thank you very much””
The brother and sister spoke in unison.
Zhang Ying Hao was an expert conversationalist, while Ye Fei Li was honest and innocent, so Barry and Kitty quickly had good impressions of them that only got better as time went by, so the two sides quickly got to know each other.
The trapped mysterious people were just thrown to one side and were ignored.
At this time, the Frost Flame Wraith King, the Heavenly God, the Asura King and the Ruler of all Beasts came one by one.
They looked below in shock, each side having a different kind of reaction.
The new Heavenly God broke out in cold sweat, muttering in disbelief: “So strong, how could someone be this strong”
The Frost Flame Wraith King fell silent for a while as he stared at Gu Qing Shan, muttering in confusion: 『 He’s clearly a human, yet why does he have that aura… 』(1)
The Asura King laughed bitterly: 「 It seems our struggles have been for nothing, but fortunately, one of them has relations to our Asura tribe 」
His gaze was also locked onto Gu Qing Shan.
The Ruler of all Beasts stared at Barry, shaking without being able to say anything.
As an animal, he had the sharpest instinct, capable of sensing terrifying power that the others couldn’t.
At this time, the chatter below also reached a conclusion.
Zhang Ying Hao happily laughed and declared: “After you guys deal with your business here, I’ll take you two to enjoy the best liquor this world has to offer—— I’ll keep you company all night tonight”
“A bar huh? Then don’t mind if I do” Barry gladly accepted.
Kitty on the other hand: “I’m more interested in your cooking techniques, actually. Considering Gu Qing Shan’s skills are so great”
Zhang Ying Hao instantly replied: “That’s simple, I have a 20-man group of personal chefs right here”
He then took out his Holo-Brain and contacted the mountain top mansion.
Hearing the explanation, the Masterchef personally drafted a menu for them on the spot, only stopping at the 30th dish.
Hearing the names of those dishes, even Gu Qing Shan felt hungry.
Kitty happily patted Zhang Ying Hao on the back and half-jokingly said: “Very well done, I like you already”
“What about these people?” Ye Fei Li looked at the mysterious people still unable to escape and asked.
“They aren’t normal” Barry judged them right away.
Kitty became more cautious and asked: “Why do you say so?”
Barry scowled: “Knowing me is normal, there are too many people in the 900 million World Layers that know me to count them all——- but their reactions are too panicked, I can feel something isn’t right”
Kitty then took a look at them.
From the very start, they already tried everything they could to run away.
“Ah, that’s true! Why would they run from bro as soon as they noticed him, he has never randomly killed people before” Kitty muttered.
She then blew a breath at those people.
Hoh!
An intense wind came.
In the blink of an eye, the mysterious people’s clothing, equipment, weapons all disappeared without a trace.
They had nothing left on their bodies but a single piece of underwear, shouting and screaming from fright.
“Stop fussing! Stay still and let this young lady take a closer look” Kitty shouted.
She then stopped as her expression changed.
“Bro, look!”
Barry’s expression also became dim as his tone went cold: “So that’s why! I knew it wasn’t natural for them to be that frightened”

Everyone looked at them.
The same tattoo was marked on the bodies of these mysterious people.
It depicted a black humanoid face, half-man, half-woman, but both halves appeared to be screaming in pain.
As soon as this tattoo was revealed, everyone couldn’t help but feel a chill coming deep from their minds.
The Asura King couldn’t help but sneer, apparently angry at himself for feeling frightened without a reason.
“Who are they?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“They are members of God Institute” Barry spoke in a heavy tone.
“God Institute is an organization of devout believers that gathers every mystic-type item they could find, working towards the same goal of reviving an Old God” Kitty explained.
“We used to know their leaders as well” Barry added.
“Used to?”
“Yeah, those Lord-class Combatants were all very strong, not to mention talented in various other aspects. They all made ample preparations before their ritual, but unfortunately, they had made a fatal mistake”
“What was the mistake?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“The creature they tried to revive, wasn’t an Old God”
“It wasn’t an Old God? Then what was it?”
Barry and Kitty both fell silent.
Then finally Barry told him: “No one knows what it was”
“Fortunately, that ‘thing’ was only revived for a brief moment before it died again”
“And it was this?”
Gu Qing Shan pointed at the tattoos of a half-man-half-woman face which were contorting in an expression of pain and asked.
“That’s right. Although it died again very soon after it lived, but in the very instant that it revived, everybody in God Institute changed and became completely different from how they were before”
“They themselves sealed God Institute off, not allowing anyone else to approach while frequently dispatching their own people to do some inexplicable things”
“For example, coming to a Scattered world in search of a world tomb like they did this time?”
Barry replied: “Exactly. Scattered worlds are places that very few are willing to go to, but they had unexpectedly paid attention to this place”
Kitty continued to explain: “More and more organizations within the 900 million World Layers are becoming scared of God Institute, simply because of how eerie they’ve become. It was even said that no one could even find the souls of the people who fall into their hands”
Barry patted Gu Qing Shan’s shoulder and added: “But you don’t have to worry, this Iron Fist Barry is the strongest man in the 900 million World Layers, even if all the maniacs of God Institute tried to attack at once, they still wouldn’t be a match for me”
Gu Qing Shan sighed and answered: “I feel really assured”
“From what you said, apparently you have some beef with them?” Zhang Ying Hao chimed in.
Barry nodded and answered: “I usually only kill two types of people; those who are nonchalantly destroying worlds without reason, another are those people who kill the innocent without remorse, and the last ones are maniacs from the God Institute” (2)
“I also despise how they’ve become. I think whatever that ‘thing’ was, at the split second that it was revived, it had changed their souls” Kitty added: “That’s why, Gu Qing Shan, if you have any ideas, go ahead and do it, Barry and I will help you deal with what you can’t”
“Thank you” Gu Qing Shan expressed his gratitude
He then looked down and fell into thought.
Barry and Kitty silently waited for his decision.
A few moments later, Gu Qing Shan looked up and slowly spoke: “The person they killed was the 9 Lords’ Guardian, I met her once before”
“Hm” Barry signalled him to continue.
“Originally, her mouth was stitched together, so she only used telepathy to communicate”
“Which means the reason why she spoke with her mouth in the first place was to find out these people’s motive—— she knew that Impartial Goddess was always recording everything, so she could leak this information outside that way”
“Even at her moment of death, she was still thinking about Su Xue Er, hoping that Impartial Goddess would protect Su Xue Er”
“I believe she had indeed fulfilled her duties to the very end as Su Xue Er’s ancestor”
“Which is why I want to kill these people and avenge her”
Kitty was a bit confused and couldn’t help but ask: “Wait a minute, you want to avenge her? Wasn’t she only Su Xue Er’s ancestor?”
Gu Qing Shan went silently briefly and muttered: “Su Xue Er’s business is also my business”
Note:
(1) Frost Flame Wraith King: I neglected to mention this before, but most of the evil creatures that attack cultivators while they are breaking through actually all belong to the Wraith realm of the Samsara. They are categorized into different species of devils and fiends, but they can also be called “Wraiths” in general, the Frost Flame Wraith King here is actually a Devil King that calls himself a Wraith King.
(2) Barry’s counting: Yes, this is intentional from the author, please don’t tell me to fix the number.
