Gu Qing Shan was stunned for a few seconds before he realized what the girl just said.

He reached his hand into the void of s.p.a.ce and took hold of the Night Rain.

At this point, the night sky was deep, the sand storm in the sky had already scattered to reveal a cold, s.h.i.+ning moon.

Standing under the moonlight, Gu Qing Shan was giving off faint killing intent.

Normally, if anyone tried to stop him and say things like these, he would have already attacked them.

But now, he was currently holding himself back from attacking.

No matter what, he was still a veteran who had been through all sorts of thick and thin, so he already recognized these three as actual novices who didn’t know any better.

Up to this point, their conduct was sincere and polite.

They were even concerned for him occasionally.

So why are they trying to rob me now?

This was such a rare situation to run into, that Gu Qing Shan couldn’t comprehend what was going on.

He tried smiling: “Did I just misheard you or did you say this was—— a robbery?”

The girl hurriedly nodded and spoke: “Yes, yes, yes, it’s a robbery”

Seeing that he understood what she meant, the girl appeared to be relieved.

Gu Qing Shan stared at her, then quickly glanced over at her companions.

The two boys had already taken position to surround Gu Qing Shan.

Seems like…

It really is that

Gu Qing Shan’s finger lightly stroked the Night Rain bow a few times before staying still.

He was holding himself back.

This girl standing in front of him had an innocent expression, spirited eyes, speaking in a shy but sincere tone, her pure white outfit was fluttering in the wind, making her look as if she was an angel from above.

—–facing such a well-mannered and pleasant-looking ‘robber’ made Gu Qing Shan a bit hesitant to take the initiative.

He couldn’t help but ask her again: “You said you’re robbing me—– do you know what robbing means?”

The girl froze.

“Ah, about that…”

She hurriedly took out a notebook from behind her, flipped through several pages before reaching a certain part.

She then whispered as she read from her notes: “Robbing, a situation when two opposing sides on a chess board had surrounded each other. Under such circ.u.mstances, the first person to move will be able to take a piece from the opponent—– wait no, I got the wrong one”

She apologized to Gu Qing Shan before continuing to search.

Gu Qing Shan just stood there with the Night Rain in his hand, watching the girl search for an answer.

He wasn’t at all afraid to go against an unreasonable opponent that immediately tried to kill him as they met.

…But there’s no point in fighting such a dumb battle like this.

He silently sighed.

After a while.

The girl finally puffed up her chest and whispered confidently: “Robbing, means to stop someone on their way and take their wealth”

As she said that, she looked up at the moon in the sky and appeared worried.

“Oh no, I don’t have much time”

She suddenly shouted: “Prohibition Technique!”

Behind Gu Qing Shan, one of the boys turned into a streak of light as he flew into her hand.

The boy just turned into a card!

The girl pointed the card at Gu Qing Shan and called out: “Prohibit weapon—- Bow and arrows!”

Before Gu Qing Shan could react, the Night Rain bow in his hand disappeared.

Both the Night Rain and the quiver on his back appeared in the card in the girl’s hand, currently held by the boy.

The girl coldly told him: “Now your attack is sealed, give up everything you have”

Gu Qing Shan didn’t panic and only chuckled: “What if I don’t?”

He suddenly turned around and punched behind himself——-

Divine Skill, [Skyfall]!

Bam!!!

His fist clashed with the other boy, sending both of them flying backward as shockwaves spread.

The girl was a bit surprised: “So you can actually clash head-on with one of my puppets…”

She drew another card from the void of s.p.a.ce.

It was the boy that was just sent flying.

Both boys were cards that she controlled!

Holding this card in her hand, the girl kept drawing card after card from the void of s.p.a.ce.

Shoulder pad, breastplate, helmet, wrist guard, knee guard…

With a flick of her hand, all of these defensive items equipped themselves on the boy.

With the help of the armor, the boy wouldn’t need to pay too much attention to defense.

His attacks would become much fiercer.

“You can’t win against me, just give up your belongings!” the girl shouted towards Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t respond.

He suddenly drew a Blade from nowhere, attacking 24 times in a row, forcing the fully-armored boy backward.

Taking that opportunity, Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag.

The Shen Wei General armor scattered into its components before quickly a.s.sembling on his body.

He wore the golden mask and looked at the girl: “Again”

Seeing that, the girl gritted her teeth a bit before placing her scimitar into the boy’s card.

The boy now held a scimitar in his hand.

He once again leapt forward, attacking him with a thick dark slash.

Gu Qing Shan scowled.

Mutated Elements consisted of Wind, Lightning, Light, Dark, and Sound.

This attack was Dark Element being used to its very limit, infusing into a high-leveled Elemental Blade technique.

For a card to be able to do this much!

While everything sounded slow, it all happened in the blink of an eye.

Gu Qing Shan charged forward with his Blade.

Fierce arcs of blue lighting streamed along the edge of the Corpse King Blade.

The two weapons clashed.

Boom!

Blue and black Elemental energy exploded before scattering in the air.

Gu Qing Shan leapt backwards quickly, breathed out heavily before purposefully grunting: “You want my belongings? Over my dead body!”

The girl hurriedly waved her hands: “I don’t want to kill you, you’re a good person”

Gu Qing Shan went silently briefly before feeling a headache.

I was right.

She doesn’t have any killing intent.

Then what the h.e.l.l are we fighting for?

The girl also appeared to be troubled.

“Seems like I have to use enough force to completely overwhelm him to get him to give up huh…” she mumbled to herself.

While she did so, she had already drawn another card.

This card was completely unlike those from before.

The previous cards were all black, but this one was crimson red.

Depicted on the face of this card was a blinding cl.u.s.ter of red light.

With the light obscuring it, there was no way to see exactly what was depicted on the card.

“True Crimson Demon Spear” the girl muttered.

She quickly drew another card with her other hand and threw it forward.

“Demon Scorpion Empress, I summon thee from the Abyss of Sin!”

Bam!

The card turned into a huge cloud of dust.

A human-headed, scorpion-bodied woman appeared in the desert.

A cold aura drifted about her as she raised a small, intricate s.h.i.+eld in her hand.

“So there still exists someone that can summon me, what an unexpected surprise”

The woman chuckled.

The girl then threw the crimson red card outward.

The Demon Scorpion Empress caught it.

A spear obscured by a glorious red glow appeared in her hand.

With a s.h.i.+eld in one hand and spear in another, she charged straight at Gu Qing Shan.

As Gu Qing Shan saw this spear, his expression turned serious.

He could sense the extreme sharpness that the spear gave off.

He raised the Corpse King Blade again.

At the same time, the girl moved.

She held up the first card and pointed it at Gu Qing Shan again.

“Prohibit weapon——- Blade”

In a flash, Gu Qing Shan’s Corpse King Blade disappeared and reappeared inside the card.

The boy in the card now held a bow in one hand, a Blade in the other with a quiver of arrows on his back.

At this point, Gu Qing Shan’s Blade, bow and arrows were all prohibited.

Seeing the Demon Scorpion Empress about to reach him, Gu Qing Shan leapt and flew backwards.

This so-called True Crimson Demon Spear looked terrifying, he wouldn’t be so arrogant as to think he could block it.

“No need to run, boy” the Demon Scorpion Empress giggled.

She charged forward even faster.

In about two breaths’ worth of time later, Gu Qing Shan would be unable to avoid her anymore.

Seizing what little time he had, Gu Qing Shan formed a hand seal and infused it with his Lightning spirit energy.

Three black holes manifested in front of himself.

Shh——-

Three bolts of blue lightning the size of a chopping board came out of them to attack the scorpion woman.

Lightning Secret Art, [Chaotic Lightning]!

The scorpion woman quickly stopped dead in her tracks and swiftly raised the s.h.i.+eld in her hand.

As soon as the three bolts of lightning carrying intense destructive power struck the s.h.i.+eld, they disappeared.

About several hundred meters away, the three bolts of lightning appeared and struck the dune of sand there.

Boom!

Under the cold moonlight, sand and gravel were kicked up by the force, scattering in the air.

Gu Qing Shan continued his retreat.

Instinctively, he felt a sense of danger.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly looked up.

The fully-armored boy was coming straight down at him.

The boy had clearly been waiting and perfectly caught this chance.

At this point, the enemy below me had just cast a spell, he had no weapons and no way to stop me.

“Surrender if you don’t want to die!”

The boy waved his scimitar and shouted.

As his voice came, he reached the top of Gu Qing Shan’s head.

Time seemed like it stopped in that moment.

A wild, reckless aura appeared from Gu Qing Shan’s body.

He turned into a black figure that shot straight to the sky, cras.h.i.+ng into the boy with extreme force.

When the boy tried to slash him, the scimitar was repelled by an invisible force before it could reach Gu Qing Shan’s body.

A faint shadow detached itself from Gu Qing Shan’s body.

It was a human-headed snake woman that carried a solemn and majestic air.

Dong!

A loud and dull sound of impact resounded across the desert.

Divine Skill, [Unbreakable Mountain Range]!

After this impact, the boy disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Gu Qing Shan’s stance looked like that of a dragon as he continued to soar upwards through the night sky.
