Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

Gu Qing Shan glanced at Ye Fei Li.

Ye Fei Li was unexpectedly calm and spoke: "In history, at the time that the 9 Lords formed the Confederate, all of the Aristocrats were heroic figures, paragons of virtue, having accomplished great deeds that were renowned throughout the entire world"

He couldn't understand: "Why would their descendants be this way? Why are the 9 Lords right now the way they are?"

"Because the current Aristocrats did not inherit their ancestors' spirits, only their power"

Gu Qing Shan explained: "Once a person has the right to control, to harm others without being subjected to any punishments, then even a good person can become the worst villain of all"

"Why is that?"

"The Lucifer effect, it's simply human nature"

Ye Fei Li tried thinking, then asked: "Do you think… I should avenge her?"

"Why avenge her? You've already broken up" Gu Qing Shan very coldly replied.

Ye Fei Li hurriedly: "That's right but, I understand her now -------she only wanted to survive in the Apocalypse, she only wanted her family to live a little better at the end of the world"

"She dumped you" Gu Qing Shan said without holding anything back.

"So what? She's already dead, should I keep remembering her every mistake? Not to mention, I'm no longer human now, but those years of joy that she brought me, they're still my most previous memories of when I was still human"

Ye Fei Li finally said: "To be honest, I've always been grateful to her"

Listening to everything seriously, Gu Qing Shan suddenly smiled.

"Then that's good, revenge doesn't wait overnight, go and do it right now" he said.

"I want to kill a person ------a normal human, shouldn't you stop me?" Ye Fei Li looked and questioned him.

Gu Qing Shan answered: "Although you've become a Man Killer Fiend, you still haven't understood one thing"

"What is it?" Ye Fei Li asked.

When Gu Qing Shan was about to talk, his expression changed slightly.

Ye Fei Li looked around together with him.

Numerous people were gathering around the main road outside the graveyard.

They were mostly Professionists, but there were also a few normal people.

Two young men walked at the back while the Professionists surrounded them, circling like a planetary ring.

"I'm only here to visit the graveyard and so many servants of the Wang family arrived?"

Ye Fei Li was a bit in disbelief.

"They're not here to find you, they're here for me" Gu Qing Shan answered.

They slowly approached, silently surrounding Gu Qing Shan and Ye Fei Li.

The two young men went past the rest of the men.

They evaluated Gu Qing Shan.

"You are Gu Qing Shan?"

"I'm Gu Qing Shan, who are you?"

"We are the main line of the current generation of the 9 Lords"

"What do you want?"

They exchanged looks, then the one on the left spoke first: "Stay away from Su Xue Er, you can give any conditions"

"Because she's the Su family's head now?" Gu Qing Shan smirked.

"That's right, right now, she represents authority itself, not someone a person like you can just associate with" the other answered.

"We can give you 100,000,000, as long as you stay away from her!" the first young man shouted impatiently.

"No condition of yours can make me do that" Gu Qing Shan started smiling.

He really felt this to be ridiculous, even Ye Fei Li felt like he wanted to laugh.

"How does it feel?" Gu Qing Shan asked Ye Fei Li.

"Feels a bit like playing house" Ye Fei Li very honestly answered.

"Then what if I were a normal person?"

"If that's the case" Ye Fei Li thought a bit, then answered: "Then you'd probably die if you agree, just like my girlfriend"

As soon as he finished speaking, one of the young men already ordered: "Refusing an invitation just to get a punishment, go, kill him!"

The Professionists all rushed them.

Gu Qing Shan took the Earth Sword from thin air, speaking: "What I wanted to tell you just now is related to this"

"Ah right, you said I don't understand something" Ye Fei Li nodded.

"As you get stronger and stronger, you'll notice just how big the world really is, with completely different sights and things to look forward to" Gu Qing Shan spoke.

Black sword shadows silently bloomed and exploded outward.

In mere seconds, the entire road was covered in sword shadows.

Secret Art, [Drawn Shadow]

"What you want is to walk even further, to see even more magnificent sights, not to remain like weaklings whose life and death is held in the hands of others" Gu Qing Shan continued.

Some were still rushing forward, some tried to block, some tried to escape.

But after the sword shadows pierced their body, they couldn't think anymore.

Numerous desperate screams one after another.

A thick mist of blood scattered in the middle of the night.

Putting his sword away, Gu Qing Shan looked at Ye Fei Li and spoke: "If you want to become strong, you must first have a strong heart"

There were no other sounds to bother him, as his voice echoed far away.

It was completely silent because there wasn't anyone alive.

"I'm…. already very strong" Ye Fei Li protested.

He opened his palm, emitting a shining blood-red glow.

"No, you're not strong" Gu Qing Shan said.

Ye Fei Li: "But my power ------"

Gu Qing Shan cut him off: "When you receive power, you might think you've become stronger, but you haven't truly become strong"

"But why?" Ye Fei Li was stunned, couldn't help but ask.

"Being strong has to come from inside yourself -------when you desire something, and your actions can satisfy your desires, only then are you truly strong"

"Even a normal person would be able to exert incredible strength because of this"

"As you are now, you desire to do something, but you've been hesitant, wanting to escape from it" Gu Qing Shan explained.

Ye Fei Li was speechless.

Gu Qing Shan then said: "If you don't even dare to go and do the thing you desire the most, then all the power in the world is useless to you"

"You will always be weak"

Ye Fei Li squatted down, hugging this head: "Then just what should I do?"

Gu Qing Shan shook his head: "The years of peace have suppressed you for far too long, making you unsure of who you really are"

"Who am I?"

"The Murder Clown"

Ye Fei Li was stunned, but then hung his head deprecatingly: "If you say so, then I'm actually a demon?"

"No, you're a hero, a hero who saved the world from the hands of the Game of Eternal"

Gu Qing Shan continued: "But that's not enough, if you want to truly become strong, you must have the courage to still be yourself even after you take off the mask"

"…Right, when I acted as the Murder Clown, I truly felt much happier"

Ye Fei Li muttered: "I had a sense of… light heartedness, ecstasy, freedom"

"That kind of feeling, only a hero can experience it" Gu Qing Shan said.

"Ahahahaha!"

Ye Fei Li suddenly broke into a frenzied laughter, raising his head and roared: "I understand, what I truly want to do is to avenge her!"

The blood-red glow shone brightly, even his skeletal wings had spread behind his back.

"When I was still human, I didn't have a favorite song, no favorite movie, aside from playing games, I had no aspiration, I've always felt that such a life was uninteresting. But when I became a Man Killer Fiend, I managed to understand that the one I love most was now with someone else"

He was breathing heavily, speaking with a low, deep voice: "I really couldn't understand, how can the precious person that I treasure with all I have would become nothing in the eyes of another"

Following these words, mysterious black runes began to manifest inside his blood-red glow, like tattoos that couldn't be washed away.

Intense wind pressure flowed from his body.

This was a Ye Fei Li unlike anything you've seen before.

He wasn't wearing a mask, but at this very moment, he was the Murder Clown.

"Only when I avenge her can I soothe my most precious person"

"I want to kill him! I want to torture him, to make him suffer what she suffered over a hundred times over!"

"And I want it right now!"

A blood-red glow boomed as he shot into the air, heading for a certain direction.
