On the War God UI, lines of glowing text were quickly scrolling through.

[You’ve bypassed the difference in strength and killed a card user several times stronger than yourself]

[You’ve obtained an excessive amount of Soul Points]

[As he was a user of the Death deck, a more powerful deck than normal card decks, you’ve received extra Soul Points]

[In total, the amount of Soul Points you’ve received from killing the card user are as follows: 100,000 + 20,000 = 120,000 Soul Points]

[Remaining Soul Points: 193,000/600]

When Gu Qing Shan saw this huge amount of Soul Points, he was initially ecstatic, but as he recalled that to upgrade [War God Skills] he needed 1 million Soul Points, his excitement went away.

Followers of the seven Gods were currently lighting their Trees of Divinity one after another.

Those followers would soon obtain the method to travel the path to Godhood.

In the upcoming era, if I’m unable to keep up, I’ll be dependent on other people sooner or later.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head and glanced at the book that landed a bit away from the corpse.

A book of cards.

Gu Qing Shan willed it to move.

The book flew into his hand.

[Restraining Book of Death]

[This card binder comprises of 573 restraining cards, all of which were arranged to seal a particularly unique card]

[Because you did not receive permission to use this card binder, you are unable to activate any cards within this binder]

Gu Qing Shan threw the [Restraining Book of Death] out.

The Six Paths Great Mountain sword suddenly flashed and pierced the book.

As if it was alive, the [Restraining Book of Death] let out a sharp screech.

But since the Six Paths Great Mountain sword had pierced through it, no matter how much the book struggled, it couldn’t escape.

Gu Qing Shan’s eyes sharpened.

Countless black sword shadows appeared from the sword, slicing through the book and the cards inside.

Poof!

The [Restraining Book of Death] was reduced to colorful confetti with runes that scattered everywhere.

The confetti quickly faded into the void of space.

This looked very similar to what happened in Aboul when the big rooster destroyed the Blood Sea Barrier.

All of a sudden, a black jet of light shot out from the void of space and squarely hit Gu Qing Shan’s arm without him being able to react in time.

Gu Qing Shan hurriedly took a look at it.

It was a black squiggly rune that blinked twice on Gu Qing Shan’s arm before disappearing without a trace.

A few lines of text quickly appeared on the War God UI.

[For killing a follower of the Death God, you have been marked by the Death God’s Law]

[Your blasphemy towards the Church of Death has been notified to high-ranking Death Cardinals]

[From now on, you must avoid the Church of Death’s territory, otherwise apostles of Death stronger than yourself will be notified of your presence and pursue you]

Reading that, Gu Qing Shan went silent briefly and asked: “System, are there any ways to remove this mark?”

[Ting]!

The System answered with a chime: [Among the infinite worlds, there are always one way or another to resolve your problem, please seek it out yourself]

Gu Qing Shan calmed back down.

—-as long as there is a way.

He went to the corpse and searched.

A few moments later, he found a particularly heavy small bag.

[Death Apostle, card user, God’s Chosen Steeple’s senior student, Kara’s bag of belonging]

[To open this bag, you need to have a profound understanding of spatial expansion techniques]

His gaze leaving the War God UI, Gu Qing Shan decided to put this small bag away for now.

I’m currently penniless without a coin to my name, so I’ll need to think of some way to open this little bag.

—-among countless Professions, card users are famous for being among the wealthiest.

After cleaning up, Gu Qing Shan formed a hand seal.

An elementary-level Fire Lighter technique.

Flames began to appear on the pieces of the body, sizzling as they burnt.

Soon enough, no traces were left.

Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to check again.

No leads remained.

—–or at least, with his abilities, he couldn’t find anything that could become a lead.

Nodding in satisfaction, he leapt up and flew away.

He followed the direction that the girl ran in and quickly found traces of her.

In truth, the battle just now didn’t go on for very long.

Most of the battle was just him luring the black-clothed man into a false sense of security, the only actual part of the battle was his final strike.

The girl couldn’t have ran away very far.

Gu Qing Shan’s figure flashed and landed in front of her.

As soon as she saw him, the girl stopped.

“It’s over” Gu Qing Shan lightly told her.

The girl looked at him and froze for a few seconds.

Then she started sobbing.

While sobbing, she spoke in a determined voice: “You died to save me, please rest in peace, knowing that I would rather die in the battle against that man than to let them catch me again”

“…” Gu Qing Shan.

Did she think I died in battle?

While he was thinking that, the girl had already clasped her hands together to pray for him: “O’ restless soul, lay yourself to rest, there is no longer anything that troubles you in this world, for you will enter the realm of eternal peace…”

Gu Qing Shan helplessly sighed: “That’s enough, I’m still alive”

The girl looked back at him.

With a clear look of confusion, the girl stared at his eyes, then checked his shadow before hesitantly speaking: “You’re still alive?”

“Of course” Gu Qing Shan answered her.

“Then—— where’s the crook from before?” the girl asked.

“I killed him” Gu Qing Shan answered.

The girl blinked a few times, looked at him from top to bottom and asked doubtfully: “Killed him? Just you alone?”

Gu Qing Shan was speechless.

He suddenly wondered if he owed this card something in his past life.

But the girl wasn’t a real idiot.

She closed her eyes, sensed herself before happily cheering: “My restraints have all been undone!”

“I’m free!”

She was so glad that she cried, loudly bawling her eyes out.

Gu Qing Shan simply stood and waited until she calmed down again.

A few moments later.

The girl rubbed her now reddened eyes, took out the [Blood Sea God Army] card and gave it back to Gu Qing Shan.

“You don’t need it?”

Gu Qing Shan asked as he received the card.

The girl replied: “The Law-grade cards that restrained me are now all gone, so I won’t need to seek refuge in another deck anymore”

“Hm, that’s good then, I heard that if a card wanted to leave its own deck, it must pay a really heavy price. Then if an independent card wanted to join another deck, it would have to undergo countless trials and tests, paying an equally heavy price” Gu Qing Shan commented.

“That is very true” the girl sighed and nodded, “that’s how I got here, it was because I decided to leave ‘that’ deck that I had to fall into such a long slumber in the first place”

Silence.

The girl suddenly covered her own mouth and shouted: “Aaaaaaa, why did you ask my secret!”

Gu Qing Shan helplessly shrugged: “Oi, get your facts straight, you said it by yourself”

The girl was still unconvinced: “I don’t care, you crook, you definitely did that on purpose!”

Gu Qing Shan tried his hardest to maintain his calm: “Be reasonable, I’m not a card user, I don’t know anything about you”

“You must have some ulterior motives when you questioned my past, didn’t you!” the girl whimpered in shock.

“…” Gu Qing Shan

If he didn’t need to depend on this card to save Yun Ji, Gu Qing Shan felt like he would have already turned around and left.
