While Anna was talking, the notification on the War God UI was constantly blinking:

[Attention, attention!]

[You will be transported away in: 35 seconds]

Gu Qing Shan glanced over it and quickly said: Anna, Im going to be transported away soon, this is the Eternal Abyss

Anna cut him off in a seemingly tough tone: I heard your conversation, youll be transported away in a few dozen seconds, I know that

She tried to make herself seem calm but failed to do so.

Sensing the tenacious expression on her face, Gu Qing Shans gaze turned gentle.

This was a relationship that had continued from the previous life, a girl that promised to see him again, only to lose her life within the Apocalypse.

Although he was never actually in a relationship with her, how could Gu Qing Shan retreat at this point in time?

Gu Qing Shan gently told her: Thats right, Ill most likely have to participate in battle as well. Its a very crucial battle, one that might affect all of our lives

Anna lowered her head and said nothing.

He continued.

Anna, when the time comes, youll have to quickly leave as well

Remember, your life is more important than anything else, you absolutely cannot die

When Im done with everything, Ill come to look for you, alright?

Hearing that final sentence, Anna abruptly looked up and stared closely at him, as if to confirm something.

Gu Qing Shan muttered: Thats right, you need to stay alive and wait for me to return

Anna went silent for a split second, then suddenly asked: How much time left?

Gu Qing Shan glanced over the War God UI and answered: 6 seconds

Right as he answered, another second passed.

5 seconds left.

Anna stepped forward without any hesitation, held Gu Qing Shans chin with her hands, then muttered: Remember, I havent kissed another man before

4 seconds.

She pressed her lips against Gu Qing Shans lips.

3 seconds.

-as the princess of the Holy Kingdom, the gem of the Medici family, the girl that had drawn everyones eyes in all of those high society occasions, ever since she was young, Anna had slowly learnt the ways of high society and witnessed many affairs over the years.

After her mother passed away, even though her father had never appointed another person as queen, he did have a lover.

Anna had met and was actually quite close with her fathers lover.

For Anna, having learnt a lot more than she had ever experienced, the fact that she treasured her first kiss more than other girls was a natural thing.

2 seconds left.

One second.

Time was up.

Gu Qing Shan was pulled away by a powerful force, disappearing in front of Anna with a flash.

Anna stood blankly in place with her hand on her chest, completely speechless for a short while.

Her kiss wasnt finished.

She could still feel his warmth.

The so-called feeling of unwillingness to part, the so-called endlessly lingering passion, it couldnt be any different than this.

So that is how it feels truly

Anna muttered but didnt finish her words.

Everything about her seemed completely the same, except for the deep blush on her face that completely ruined the sense of dignity she held as the heir of the Death God.

After a long while.

Anna abruptly spoke up: Gu Qing Shan, Im not going to wait for you

Ive received the inheritance, from this moment onwards, I am the God of Death!

She chanted an incantation and vanished from where she stood.

Only her determined voice was left resounding among the wind:

I will never let any other woman approach you!

Except Su Xue Er!

On the other side.

Gu Qing Shan was being pulled away by an intense force of unimaginable speed through the infinite space towards Calming Soul Country.

In front of his eyes, lines of glowing text swiftly appeared:

[Youve performed the Realitys Greatest Kiss, but due to the constraints of time, only 1/10th of this technique had been performed]

[Combat synopsis: All things have predetermined affinity; you have thoroughly captured her heart through this]

[Combat note: The unfinished kiss, on the contrary, produced outstanding results, making for an even more unforgettable kiss]

Gu Qing Shan felt a headache.

Oy, this is a romantic affair between us two, theres no need for you to make a combat synopsis for it he complained.

[Ting]!

The War God UI responded.

[This UI was prepared for the sake of the War God. As a man who obtained this UI, you cannot let your guard down regardless of the war]

Then isnt it enough that you take note of normal combat? Whats the use of reporting my romance? Gu Qing Shan questioned in confusion.

The War God System responded in a very serious tone:

[You are incorrect. For a single individual, romance and the Apocalypse are equally serious wars, albeit on different fronts]

Gu Qing Shans words got completely stuck in his throat, unable to say anything in response.

Fine, have it your way

He begrudgingly relented.

At this point, a few more lines of text appeared on the War God UI:

[The results of this confrontation between the Abyss and the Apocalypse had come out, please pay attention to the information below:]

[The God of Deaths inheritance wasnt stolen away]

[Lin defeated the enemy forces from the parallel world Apocalypse]

[Under Lins guidance, the God of Deaths site of inheritance has been recalled by the Eternal Abyss and had become a part of itself]

[In summary of all information above, youve successfully accomplished the mission given by the Eternal Abyss]

[Youve obtained the praise of the Eternal Abyss]

Reading the last line, Gu Qing Shan couldnt help but ask: Praise of the Eternal Abyss? What can that do?

The War God UI replied: [Useless for now, no need to pay attention to it]

[Attention, youre about to arrive in Calming Soul Country, for the sake of your safety, the Eternal Abyss will perform a warping technique on you]

Instantly, Gu Qing Shan found his flight speed slowing down.

Spatial fluctuations began to drift around his body.

Sha-

He vanished.

Calming Soul Country.

An empty main square.

A certain house.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly appeared.

Youve returned! Ye Fei Li happily greeted him.

Seems like youre still in one piece Zhang Ying Hao commented.

Hm, Im still perfectly fine Gu Qing Shan replied and released his inner sight to check the surroundings.

Ye Fei Li and Zhang Ying Hao both seemed a bit roughed-up with a few light injuries, but their spirits are high, so it doesnt seem like there were any big problems.

Laura is sleeping.

Boss is currently gulping down a Soul Points drink.

Whats wrong with Laura? Gu Qing Shan asked right away.

Dont worry, we were just in too much of a hurry towards the end of the journey so she was exhausted, shes now sleeping Ye Fei Li replied.

Was it close? Gu Qing Shan asked.

Zhang Ying Hao replied: Hm. We were a hair away from being struck by the forces of the parallel world Apocalypse, fortunately, we managed to arrive at the deepest chamber of the God of Lifes ruin where Boss returned the entire ruin to the Eternal Abyss

And we got transported away Ye Fei Li added.

Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.

He suddenly noticed something and evaluated Boss: Hey, you seem to have grown stronger

Boss put the can on his hand down and replied: Of course, the Abyss obtained enough power to replenish itself and catch a breath, its finally able to resume its war with the parallel world Apocalypse

And I

Boss put his hand forward.

Immense power gathered in his hand and slowly manifested into solid form.

At the very last moment, Boss scatters it away on his own accord.

Gu Qing Shan seemed a bit confused and asked: Strange youve truly gotten stronger, but why do I feel like your Abyssal form hasnt really gotten too powerful?

Boss sighed: Naturally

He hesitated for a brief moment before going silent as if communicating with some faraway entity.

A few moments later.

Boss told them: Now that youve participated in this war, theres no harm in telling you

In the beginning, when the parallel world Apocalypse started its invasion, as the strongest creature within the Abyss, I participated in that battle

WHAT!!? Gu Qing Shans entire group exclaimed in shock.

Thats right Boss showed an emotional expression: After that decisive battle, I was defeated by the parallel world Apocalypse, my Abyssal form had also been completely crushed, leaving only this body behind

In reality, the entire Eternal Abyss had already lost to the parallel world Apocalypse

The entire room was plunged into silence.

No one would have guessed that this would be the truth.

Boss continued:

This is the real reason why the Eternal Abyss started to flow back into the 900 million World Layers for the sake of survival after defeat, nothing more

Fortunately, I allowed the Abyss to regain the portions of its body that were hidden by the 7 Deities, replenishing it with newfound power

Right now, a new war shall begin, one that will decide all of our futures

All of you must fight against the Apocalypse together with me!

Ye Fei Li and Zhang Ying Hao couldnt help but glance at Gu Qing Shan.

-from their previous experience, one thing had been confirmed very clearly, they had an expert against the Apocalypse here.

Gu Qing Shan hesitated, then said: But with our current situation, the first thing we need to deal with is [Chaos], because the Soul Shrieker is growing increasingly stronger, and it considers me to be a mortal enemy due to the [Demon King Order] being with me

It will surely come to kill me

What do you want to do? Boss asked.

I need the Card fragments in the four Deities hands, I want to resurrect an [Order] to fight against it

Boss thought briefly, then said: Then, Ill help you with this matter. After that, you will help me fight against the Apocalypse

Thats fine Gu Qing Shan replied.

So, we have a deal?

We have a deal
