Inside the small seaside pavilion, shadows emerged from under Gu Nans feet. Any person or object touched by the shadows was instantly ground into powder.

The youth in front of Gu Nan bore the brunt of the attack and was swept under the shadows. His entire person seemed to shatter inch by inch like glass, ultimately leaving no trace behind.

What also disappeared along with the youth were the floor under everyones feet and the surrounding walls, sofas, coffee tables, and other objects.

Fortunately, the shadows didnt spread so quickly that people couldnt react in time. The other four or five guests scrambled to get up and retreated backwards at lightning speed.

These guests werent normal people either. Almost every single one of them had Void Cutter Realm strength. One person even tried to block the shadows with their own law.

Unfortunately, the persons law was already crushed to pieces by the shadows before it even had time to leave their body.

This terrifying result scared that guest so much that they didnt dare linger any longer and fled in the blink of an eye, even abandoning any thought of visiting Xue Ren.

Not every visitor necessarily wanted to meet Xue Ren. Most of them just came to pay their respects to the Sword Sects higher-ups, which wasnt anything urgent.

On the other hand, they were also eager to see what would happen to Gu Nan, the guy who dared to cause trouble in Extreme Sword Heaven.

Completely engulfed in Gu Nan's shadows, most of this pavilion was corroded in the blink of an eye. A few beams on the second floor were also damaged, causing the second floor to collapse.

Miss Qu Hongye, who was supposedly taking a nap, naturally couldnt continue sleeping any longer.

"You dared to make trouble in my Extreme Sword Heaven. You must be tired of living!" A delicate shout came from above Gu Nan's head, and along with it was a flash of sword light headed straight for him.

Qu Hongye's words carried a martial arts flavor that stood in stark contrast with this obviously modern city, which made Gu Nan feel a little strange.

The first thought he had was: The NPCs lines are so out of sync with the setting. The game designer for this is going to get his pay docked!

Then he shook his head again, tossing aside all irrelevant thoughts to observe the sword beam.

Based on the information Wu Gui provided, Xue Ren would probably resemble a physicist disguised as a swordsman, so Qu Hongye, his Martial Niece, should also share this characteristic.

Scientific cultivation didnt exist in his previous lifes game, so Gu Nan was quite interested in it.

Qu Hongye's sword beam was indeed very strange. It was clearly a direct stab, but it appeared to be a sword cloud in Gu Nan's perception.

There was no mistake. It felt as if her sword scattered and turned into a cloud of fog, all surging towards the enemy.

"So this is the wave properties of the sword?" Gu Nan couldn't help revealing a faint smile.

It looked like Extreme Sword Heavens so-called "wave properties" were at least on the level of quantum theory, which maintained that all matter has intrinsic wave properties. The attacks werent as basic as the wave crests and troughs of middle school physics.

The next moment, Gu Nan grabbed the sword beam with his hand.

Qu Hongye originally looked very confident, but her smile suddenly froze on her face.

Her wave sword already reached minor attainment, and her own strength was also Void Cutter Realm. Even top-tier Void Cutters would still have to block this carefully, but This person actually grabbed it with his bare hand?

If you asked a swordmaster what kind of opponent was the most annoying, then enemies with great speed, strength, or cultivation realm ranked further down. The answer was an opponent whose defense they couldnt break through.

Gu Nan belonged to this category.

Let alone Qu Hongye, even many enemies in the same realm as Gu Nan found it hard to break through his defense. The Evil God physique of an Evil God who took the pure combat route was too strong.

Gu Nan studied the longsword in his hand but found it to be no different from a normal sword. Of course a sword that was forcibly held could no longer oscillate.

After studying it for a while longer and confirming that he really couldnt see anything special, Gu Nan lost interest in further observations.

Be it his past or present life, Gu Nan wasnt someone suited to be the top student. He only knew how to play games.

"I'm looking for Xue Ren," Gu Nan slowly walked up to Qu Hongye and said flatly.

After taking a good look, one would find that Qu Hongye's appearance was very interesting. A small handful of hair on her forehead was dyed red, and her right ear had ear piercings. She looked like a female delinquent.

But she was also wearing an incomparably standard Daoist robe and had a wooden scabbard slung over her back. Her attire and aura were perfectly mismatched.

The Daoist-robed delinquent girl didnt look scared at all. Rather, she stared at him with an interested look and asked, Why are you looking for my Martial Uncle?"

Information about the Heaven-God Alliance shouldnt be revealed to outsiders, and Gu Nan was also too lazy to make up a reason, so he bluntly replied, Cant say.

Qu Hongyes expression suddenly darkened. She thought about it and asked a new question, "Then whats your name? Even if I take you to meet Martial Uncle, I still need to give him a name"

"Just tell me where he is. Ill find him myself," Gu Nan refused blandly.

He found the entire process of informing someone to inform someone else too troublesome. Even meetings between Star Rulers seldom had use for messengersbecause as long as the visiting Star Ruler knew the location, their arrival would quickly alert the local Star Ruler.

When had Qu Hongye ever seen a visitor like Gu Nan before? It just so happened that she herself had a fearless personality, so she immediately turned her head away. "Want me to lead the way? Then beg me!"

Crack!

The girl delinquent immediately felt a sharp pain from her leg as a numbing crack traveled over. Gu Nan had stomped down on her leg, breaking the bone.

"Where is Xue Ren?" Gu Nan didnt even bother adding any inflection to his voice.

"Y-y-y-you! If youre so incredible, then kill ah no, wrong line. W-w-w-wait!" Qu Hongye was in so much pain that she even started stammering, but she changed her tune quite fast.

So Gu Nan slowly withdrew the shadows that had already reached out. If Qu Hongye refused, he certainly didnt mind refining her into a shadow servant first and then slowly asking questions.

But since she was willing to lead the way, Gu Nan could save energy and skip this step.

Of course players preferred the simplest, most efficient method. If they could be idle during something, then even one extra click of the mouse was considered a waste of energy.

"Lead the way."

Qu Hongye struggled to stand up, not even having the time to care about her broken leg. She revealed a strange smile and giggled. "Then follow me!"

While saying this, she flicked her hand and sent a message through the rune in her hand.

Outside the Sword Sects mountain gates, a young man and woman dressed in Daoist robes were surveying the scene from above.

"Junior Martial Sister Qu is in the Wutong District. She shouldve already arrived by now if she was bringing someone over. Why isn't she here yet?" The man sounded a little anxious.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" His female companion grumbled, "Junior Martial Sister said that person can catch her wave sword barehanded, so hes likely to be a Star Ruler powerhouse. Thats why we need to retreat quickly when they arrive."

The man revealed a bitter smile. "The only reason were still here is because I cant restrain the sword beast any longer I wouldve asked Master for help if Id known this earlier."

The woman was almost driven mad by him. She poked his head angrily. "Think with your head! If you asked Master, would Master let us both out? Would he be willing to avenge Junior Sister Qu?"

"Hey! Don't push me" The man lost his balance from her jab. His movements suddenly became flustered, and the hand seal he was maintaining also dissipated.

His heart froze slightly as he subconsciously glanced behind him, only to see a giant ape as tall as ten people rushing forward with a great roar.

"It's over"
