A few minutes later, the dust from the explosion started to die down, being blown away by the wind.
The entire circus has been levelled.
At the time of the explosion, the Pope was the only person left inside the circus, but now she’s nowhere to be seen.
Only a black card slowly hovered in the air, a blinding milky white holy power emitted from the card.
Time passed.
Aside from the “Judge of Repentance” Ivan, the other 6 Holy Apostle were all here, lining up in front of the black card and kneeled down on one knee.
“I was unable to win against the enemy, this is a great sin, I willingly accept your punishment” Great Holy Apostle Hurt was the first to speak.
“I can’t blame you, that person is a very strange existence” the Pope’s voice was heard from the black card.
She continued: “There’s only so many of you, temporarily stop what you’re doing”
The Holy Apostles raised their heads and waited for the next order.
“That person joined Madame Punta’s banquet, I want you to find out his every gesture, his every word that he spoke during that time”
“After you found every single last bit of detail about him, do not act rashly and wait until I return”
All the Holy Apostles answered at the same time: “””Yes!”””
Cardinal Kid asked in a low voice: “How long will it be until you return?”
“I had to temporarily hide over here, so I have to wait until time is up until I’m able to return. Do not worry about this, you’ve gotten your orders, simply execute them”
After saying so, the black card disappeared without a trace.
All the Holy Apostle stood up and began to follow the orders given by the Pope.
Very quickly, the entire Holy Church had been dispatched.
…
Gu Qing Shan appeared on the S.W. Divine Temple Interstellar Fortress.
Everyone quickly went to check on him.
He was bleeding from everywhere, all the muscles on his body were torn and bruised, some parts were so bad that it opened up terrifying wounds all the way to his bones.
You can’t even carelessly touch him to perform first aid with these sort of wounds.
Anna was so hurried that she didn’t know what to say, only urging: “Impartial Goddess, quickly arrange a shuttle, we need to take him to the Capital hospital for emergency treatment!”
Coughing up some blood, Gu Qing Shan spoke with a hoarse voice: “No need, I can heal these wounds myself”
Saying so, he took out a small bottle, took 2-3 pills from it and swallowed.
After that, he sat cross-legged, both hands forming a spirit funnel seal and entered deep meditation.
When Gu Qing Shan woke up again, it was already a full day later.
All the acupoints on his body were still aching, as if he was being pierced by a thousand needles.
The blood had already dried to form a layer of scales around his body, transmitting an aching pain with the slightest of movements.
His Dantian was completely empty, no matter how much Gu Qing Shan tried, he couldn’t move or concentrate any spirit energy at all.
When he tried to directly act on his Dantian, he could feel even it was hurting.
What? Even the Dantian is damaged?
Gu Qing Shan felt a bit uneasy.
For the next while, he didn’t even try to touch his Dantian, only occasionally ate pills to circulate spirit energy around and fix up his acupoints and Dantian.
Very carefully, he tried releasing his inner sight ——–fortunately, his inner sight is fine, which means his Thought Sea isn’t damaged.
It was now that he tried to scan his body with his inner sight.
Heavily wounded.
Definitely heavily wounded.
His entire body was under so much pressure that it was on the verge of collapse, even his acupoints were at the point of breaking from over-exertion.
This was the most heavily wounded Gu Qing Shan has been ever since he returned to the past.
Gu Qing Shan could only smile wryly.
In his current state, even a normal person can kill him without any problems.
It seems War God UI wasn’t kidding, [Flowing Dragon] isn’t something he’s able to use recklessly at this stage.
But unless he had insisted on learning this Secret Art anyways, it would’ve been impossible to escape from the Pope’s pursuit.
At this point, Impartial Goddess’ voice came.
[Sir, the medical pod has been prepared, would you like to be treated now?]
“Not yet, I have to deal with the wounds that current medical practices cannot heal yet first”
Gu Qing Shan shook his head, took out another pill, swallowed it and began to meditate again.
Half a day later, he breathed out and said: “Bring me to the medical pod for treatment”
Anna very carefully lifted him up and carried him to the medical pod on the S.W. Divine Temple.
Very quickly, a nutritional solution mixed with cell generative fluid covered Gu Qing Shan’s body.
When the anesthetics kicked in, he entered a deep sleep.
About three hours later, he woke up.
Releasing inner sight to check his body again, Gu Qing Shan found his wounds were already getting better.
He’s still heavily wounded, but overall, things have stabilized, enough for his body to slowly recover.
Looking at the people surrounding him, Gu Qing Shan wryly smiled and said: “I barely managed to drag my life back from the edge”
Anna’s eyes were red, she only rubbed his face gently without saying anything.
Zhang Ying Hao wasn’t that kind and said: “If we knew it would be that dangerous, we wouldn’t have gone to get that recipe in the first place”
“This thing is extremely important, so I would’ve went regardless”
“Are you satisfied now?”
“Hm, not yet, for the next step, I still need Fuxi Empire’s Elementalist Awakening Serum”
“Do you need the recipe or the Serum itself?” Anna suddenly asked.
“Is there a difference?”
“The Emperor will definitely not let the recipe leak, but he might sell you the Serum”
She continued: “The Emperor is an exceptionally practical person, as long as you can pay for it, he’ll sell it to you”
“But I’ve never heard of anyone being able to buy such a high-level Serum though?” Zhang Ying Hao frowned and said.
“——–the Emperor isn’t stupid, he only sells them to Fuxians, and they’re normally required to use it in front of him” Anna answered.
“How much for a vial?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“If you convert it to Confederate Credits, then 1.5 billion for one vial” Anna replied.
Ye Fei Li could no nothing but click his tongue.
“No wonder the Fuxi Emperor is known as the most lavish person in all of the countries, even the 9 Lords couldn’t compare” Zhang Ying Hao commented.
“But if it’s like that, wouldn’t he be afraid that others will use the Serum to reverse engineer the recipe?”
“No, the Empire’s Potion-ology has reached a very high level of genetic coding, if anyone dares to probe into it, the entire Serum will instantly become useless”
“What if someone is able to break the code?” Liao Xing asked with interest.
“If they have to technology to do that, they should already be able to make a Serum with similar effects”
“I don’t know, I got the money, but I’m not sure he’ll be willing to sell it to me. After all, I’m a man of the Confederate” Gu Qing Shan said.
Anna patted her chest and said: “Just leave it to me, I could possibly even get you a discount”
“Impartial Goddess, I authorize Anna to freely use my Confederate Merit” Gu Qing Shan said.
[Understood, it’s been verified] Impartial Goddess’s voice came.
Anna glared at him a bit, then ‘hmph’.
All the men couldn’t understand this at all.
But Anna’s actions spoke louder than her words, so she didn’t waste any time and immediately took a small-sized Interstellar Warship to go back to Earth.
Not long after, she came to Fuxi Empire and found the Emperor.
The Emperor was currently picking out a horse in his stable.
“A 99% purity Elementalist Awakening Serum?” the Emperor stood in front of a tall-looking horse and asked.
“That’s right, your Majesty, please sell me one vial” Anna clasped her hands together and smiled, almost asking to be spoiled.
The Emperor said nothing.
Anna quickly continued: “How much it is; I can transfer the money now”
“But I seem to remember you’ve already awoken Fire element to 4th stage peak, you don’t need such a thing, do you?” the Emperor spoke slowly.
“I’m not the one using it, this is for Gu Qing Shan”
“Ah—–“ the Emperor turned around and flashed a knowing smile.
Anna’s face didn’t even flush and replied: “What is it? No girl wouldn’t want her man to be a strong person right?”
The Emperor shook his head: “But he’s not a Fuxian, this violates my rule”
Anna answered: “Since he’s with me, sooner or later he’ll leave the Confederate anyways”
This instantly drew the Emperor’s attention.
“Are you that confident?”
“Of course”
The Emperor then laughed.
He contemplated for a bit, then said: “Then how about we make a bet”
