In the sky.
Countless communication talisman turned into flames as they flew in different directions.
The real Gu Qing Shan had returned!
The news spread like wildfire across the entire world.
But the person in question himself wasn’t concerned with that at all.
He was standing on the lake together with Ning Yue Chan, talking about recent events.
“Which means, although you’ve merged several worlds together, you still haven’t seen any living beings?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
Ning Yue Chan confirmed: “That’s correct, even now, the only people in this world are those of the cultivation world. This was very strange, but besides your Shifu, it’s likely that no one really knows what exactly happened”
Gu Qing Shan briefly fell silent.
The Samsara world was broken.
Being struck by a force strong enough to do such a thing, it was likely that many of the fragments were more or less affected.
One interesting thing that Gu Qing Shan noticed, even after being broken apart, the Samsara world fragments were still a Samsara.
Shen Wu world, the cultivation world, his original world, they were all formed by 6 separate worlds.
The only exception was the cultivation world’s Heaven realm that was missing.
Did it get completely destroyed?
Gu Qing Shan pulled back his thoughts and continued to ask: “All I did was face a Tribulation, why did that cause you to gather so many people here?”
Hearing that, Ning Yue Chan’s expression turned serious as she answered: “Because we’ve forbidden the entry of all outsider cultivators into our world”
“Why is that?”
“Your impersonator managed to collect a lot of intel on our world, only after meeting me and your two junior sisters was he seen through”
“So you arrested him on the spot?”
“We didn’t, we were wary that other worlds might have abilities or means that we don’t understand that he can use to escape, so we didn’t tip him off and only waited until your Shifu returned to report to her”
“And Shifu acted herself?”
“Indeed”
Gu Qing Shan curiously asked: “Was that person really that similar to me?”
Ning Yue Chan rubbed her chin in thought: “His organization really went all out, even his weapons seemed like exact copies of yours, there was even something that seemed like the ‘Night Rain’ bow—— but he very rarely took it out. Of course, no one would really take notice of that, not even I noticed it”
“Then how did you see through him?”
“Compared to you, he was too perfect, he was careful, considerate, his words and actions all managed to cause people to feel pleased to interact with him”
“…did you just criticize me?”
“That’s not——- hm, well it’s true that you were a bit lacking compared to him”
Ning Yue Chan giggled as she told him.
Recalling something, she added: “Your junior sisters Qing Rou and Wan Er personally told me that the person looks a lot like you at a glance, but they were suspicious that he wasn’t you”
Gu Qing Shan finally realized.
So Qing Rou and Wan Er joined Bai Hua sect after they returned from the Suspended world.
They used to be peerless geniuses, people with power and status in their own worlds; they, unfortunately, were captured when the Suspended world invaded, from then on their fate became rocky and uncertain.
The two of them fought by Gu Qing Shan’s side and faced many struggles together.
In that process, Gu Qing Shan also slowly recognized these two girls.
And now, the fact that they were also accepted by Bai Hua Fairy to join Bai Hua sect made Gu Qing Shan happy for them.
However…
——–that person must’ve gone through meticulous preparations to have absolute confidence that he could impersonate me, his organization must’ve also tested him over and over to make sure that he wouldn’t make a mistake too obvious before he was sent to this world.
But even after deceiving so many people, these three girls managed to see through him easily.
That by itself is strange.
“How did they know that person wasn’t me?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
Ning Yue Chan didn’t answer him.
Recalling what Qing Rou and Wan Er said at the time, she couldn’t help but smile a bit.
As she looked at Gu Qing Shan, Ning Yue Chan’s gaze contained a faint sense of gentleness.

She didn’t answer him, but said: “At the time, that person was a lot like you, but I also felt that he wasn’t you”
“I don’t know how I noticed that he wasn’t quite right either”
“But now that the real you have returned, I can kind of understand”
“So you’re criticizing me again?” Gu Qing Shan asked unhappily.
Ning Yue Chan shook her head and spoke to herself: “In truth, in the short battle just now, when you shouted about me ambushing you while retreating, I already felt that the real you have returned”
“When you pulled out the Dragon’s Tear Flower and hurriedly to try flatter me, I finally confirmed that it was actually you”
“You think I was flattering you?”
Ning Yue Chan gently told him: “Of course, you were afraid of my Blade spirit—— my Blade that doesn’t back down. You purposefully avoided my Blade spirit when receiving that first strike——— you were afraid that you might actually hurt me”
Gu Qing Shan went silent for a while and couldn’t help but shook his head: “No wonder that person couldn’t fool your eyes”
At this time, an airship arrived from the horizon.
This ship was a lot more eye-catching than the previous one, carrying beautiful calligraphy of the character ‘Lou’ painted in green on the outside.
Seeing that ship Gu Qing Shan smiled: “That’s my senior brother’s ship, so they’re finally here”
Ning Yue Chan nodded: “If the people of your sect have come then I’ll excuse myself”
“Where are you going?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“I still have my duty to patrol and make sure that no outsider cultivator enters our world in the next two days”
“The next two days?”
“Yes, the Elder assembly of the infinite worlds’ cultivation alliance is currently being held at your sect, we’re responsible for protecting our world”
The cultivation alliance’s elder assembly!?
Gu Qing Shan quickly thought about the implications of this.
“If you have a duty to fulfil then go ahead and get back to work, we can talk more tonight” he said.
“Hm”
Ning Yue Chan stared at him for a while before leaping upwards and flew away.
She left together with the patrolling cultivators.
As one airship left, another slowly came closer.
Qin Xiao Lou was nowhere to be seen.
Instead, two stunning beauties slowly descended and landed on the calm surface of the lake.

The calm and soothing Qing Rou, the active and energetic Wan Er.
Gu Qing Shan smiled as he saw the two of them.
With so many things happening recently, the events at the Suspended world seemed like they were ages ago.
And it had certainly been a long time since he saw them.
When Gu Qing Shan was about to talk, the two girls already took the initiative.
Wan Er lightly glided in front of him, took his hands and innocently asked: “Young master, it’s been so long since you returned, I miss you so much”
Qing Rou also glided near, softly clutched the sleeve of his shirt and looked at him with a slightly wet gaze.
She also muttered: “Young master, did you miss me and little sis Wan Er as well?”
Gu Qing Shan awkwardly backed off in confusion and asked them: “What happened with the two of you?”
The two girls flinched and exchanged glances as their expression became calm again.
Qing Rou smiled sincerely and told him: “So it really is you! I’m sorry, we were just probing you a bit just in case that it might be another impersonator”
“Ehehe, now we should be calling you senior brother” Wan Er also smiled..
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.
Then he recalled something.
“Did you two probe my impersonator the same way as well?” he asked with a mixed expression on his face.
“That’s right. After he returned, little sis and I kept feeling that there was something wrong with him” Qing Rou answered.
“So when we came up with a little play and teased him a bit, we immediately confirmed that he was a fake” Wan Er continued.
Gu Qing Shan asked worriedly: “You weren’t hurt, were you?”
“Don’t worry, we know better than anyone else how to take care of ourselves” Wan Er answered.
“How was his reaction different from mine?” Gu Qing Shan asked, intrigued.
Wan Er happily smiled as she told him: “From his words and actions, he probably wasn’t a——”
Qing Rou coughed and pulled on Wan Er’s sleeve.
Wan Er instantly shut up.
But her eyes were clearly smiling at Gu Qing Shan.
“He wasn’t a what?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“Little sis Wan Er felt that he wasn’t a decent person at all” Qing Rou followed up.
“Yep, not a good person” Wan Er nodded.
