BXBX NOVEL Chapter 507 - The true Aboul
Proofreader: Arya
Gu Qing Shan wanted to return [Blood Sea God Army] to Su Xue Er.
But Su Xue Er wouldn’t take it back no matter what, insisting that he keep it.
Not given much of a choice, Gu Qing Shan could only hold on to the card [Blood Sea God Army] for now.
At this time, a warm sunlight of dawn and tranquil sounds appeared in the room, drifting around Su Xue Er.
Su Xue Er closely listened to it.
The strange phenomenon quickly went away.
“What was that just now?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“The Bramble Bird’s call. The venerable Light of Dawn sensed my presence, and because I was one of the first to arrive, she had decided to allow me entry to her world after 1 hour” Su Xue Er replied.
“But I don’t feel anything yet” Gu Qing Shan said.
“Of course not, you’ve only just arrived, there’s still quite a long line until you’re called”
“1 hour huh…” Gu Qing Shan muttered.
So Su Xue Er already has to leave after such a short time.
Su Xue Er told him: “It’s nothing, I’ll just go in first to scout and wait for you”
Gu Qing Shan’s thoughts changed a bit——- that’s true, I’ll have to enter sooner or later.
He smiled: “Then it seems your choice was correct, if we had participated in the banquet, you would already have to leave before the banquet was done”
“That’s right, so we’ll be going to the true Aboul for a short vacation from this hotel, since time passes really slowly in there, I’ll be able to stay for a little bit longer” Su Xue Er said.
“Then let’s go now” Gu Qing Shan agreed.
Su Xue Er opened her palm: “Give me your room card”
“Where’s yours?” Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but ask.
“I ran out on my own, where would I find so much money to book a room? Not to mention, only a high-ranked suite like yours could go to Aboul for free”
Gu Qing Shan handed Su Xue Er his golden room card.
Su Xue Er relaxed a bit and activated the room card.
A voice came from the room card.
[Esteemed guest, what can I do for you]
“We want to go to Aboul”
[How long will you be staying?]
Su Xue Er thought for a bit and replied: “Half a month”
[Time has been registered according to your room’s rank, please wait a moment]
Before the voice finished, the glittering gold card had already hovered by itself, releasing runes one after another.
The runes quickly combined to form a large gate.
When they looked through the gate, they found the other side was a long snowy mountain range covered in vast pure white snow, but at the bottom of the mountain was a beautiful small town, giving off a sense of leisure and tranquility.
There was a clear lake right next to the town, where some people were rafting in small boats.
The other side of the lake was a wide highway that connected to a grand metropolis.
Gu Qing Shan and Su Xue Er returned their gazes.
Two beautiful horses were quickly coming towards them along a grassy meadow, stopping right next to the rune gate.
They were majestic, with all four legs slightly off the ground.
The Elements of Wind and Water were flowing from their bodies, even through the gate, Gu Qing Shan could sense the power they held.
The horses looked at Gu Qing Shan and Su Xue Er, neighing with a long breath.
“Look, they’re urging us to get on” Su Xue Er smiled and said.
Gu Qing Shan muses for a bit: “I heard you can’t get hurt inside”
“Of course, did you think there would be some sort of danger in a vacation spot like Aboul?” Su Xue Er was surprised.
“I’ve never ridden a horse before” Gu Qing Shan looked at the horse, hesitant.
Su Xue Er started to laugh.
She pulled Gu Qing Shan and entered the rune gate.
She briefly taught Gu Qing Shan the basics.
“The simplest way is to adjust your posture with the horse’s rhythm. When it moves fast, you also move fast; when it slows down, you also slow down, that way at least you won’t churn your internal organs”
“Is this correct?” Gu Qing Shan held the reigns and asked.
“Not quite”
Su Xue Er slapped the horse’s rear and gently called out: “Hah!”
Right away, the horse shot away like an arrow.
“This girl—–” Gu Qing Shan’s voice came from afar.
In just the blink of an eye, he had already made it really far.
Su Xue Er stood still, waiting until Gu Qing Shan wasn’t in sight anymore to rub the slightly reddened corners of her eyes.
Then she quickly jumped on her own horse to pursue after Gu Qing Shan.
Infini-worlds Town.
This was Aboul’s most famous resort.
Within this small town, time moves particularly slow.
More interestingly, this sub-world was created from the combined powers and intellect of all the Old Gods.
It had two unique Laws.
First, half a month in here was only equal to a day outside.
Second, no one could get hurt while they were here.
Perhaps the Old Gods wanted to use this sub-world for something else.
But obviously, they couldn’t finish it before quickly disappearing somewhere.
But with these two Laws, the town became the perfect vacation spot.
Gu Qing Shan and Su Xue Er stayed at the center of Infini-worlds Town, enjoying themselves.
This place had a special type of fireflies.
Every firefly represents a sure-kill technique.
When you catch one, you’ll enter an illusion that shows yourself using this powerful technique against the enemy.
Of course, all you can do is see the technique’s power without being able to look into its secrets.
These are techniques specifically gathered by the managers of Infini-worlds Town, so they are all renowned techniques within the 900 million World Layers used by powerful Combatants of history.
Just by touching a firefly, you’ll be able to see yourself using a renowned technique to teach an opponent how to say ‘uncle’.
This was a never-before-seen experience.
“Qing Shan! Guess what I saw?” Su Xue Er happily spoke.
“What?”
“I turned the enemy into an egg!”
“Ah? That sounds impressive, then what?”
“Then I threw it into boiling water to cook and peel to eat”
“…what a strange technique, but you definitely won’t guess what kind of technique I saw”
“Let me see”
Su Xue Er received the firefly from Gu Qing Shan and closed her eyes.
A few moments later, she looked at Gu Qing Shan with painful eyes: “You shouldn’t have shown me this”
“Why not?” Gu Qing Shan was surprised, “this skill can only make the opponent become fat uncontrollably, enough that their limbs and body become so bloated that they can’t even touch the ground”
“Dummy!”
…
A long while later, they finally finished trying out techniques and left this area.
The shops in this town sold all kinds of wondrous and unimaginable things.
No clerks, no shopkeepers, everything was controlled fully with the customer’s mind.
Gu Qing Shan went with Su Xue Er from one shop to another.
In the weapon’s shop, every type of weapon had its own warehouse sub-space.
When Gu Qing Shan took a look at the sword sub-space, he was shaken even when it was time to leave.
A world completely made from swords.
If it weren’t for the fact that he had no money, he would’ve loved to buy the entire world.
Su Xue Er wasn’t at all interested in the weapons.
But she pulled Gu Qing Shan into an Infini-worlds female clothing store.
After that——
Gu Qing Shan said ‘beautiful’ 94 times, ‘so-so’ 31 times and ‘you should try something else’ 5 times.
They spent an entire afternoon in this shop.
While he was waiting for Su Xue Er to change clothes, something minor happened.
Xiao Die’s pink bikini silently came out from his Inventory Bag, catching Gu Qing Shan off-guard.
“How did you come out by yourself?” he couldn’t help but ask.
It was lucky that Su Xue Er was in the changing room at the moment.
Otherwise, Gu Qing Shan didn’t know what she would’ve said when she found that he kept such a bikini on himself.
The pink bikini complained: “You said you’d find me the perfect female owner, but I haven’t heard anything for so long— or did you forget?”
Gu Qing Shan face-palmed in his mind, but kept a straight face: “How could I forget! I still remember it clearly”
He really did forget.
Hearing that, the pink bikini was pleased: “It’s good that you remember, I’ll be waiting for your good news”
It went back into Gu Qing Shan’s Inventory Bag.
“Wait a minute!” Gu Qing Shan took it back out: “How did you get out of my Inventory Bag?”
“I can bring you across countless World Layers, this is child’s play compared to that” the pink bikini answered.
“Don’t leave on your own for the time being, I’ll think of something for what I promised” Gu Qing Shan solemnly told it.
“Alright, alright, I’ll just be looking forward to your good news” the pink bikini answered.
Gu Qing Shan shoved it back into his Inventory Bag.
Su Xue Er excitedly trotted over.
“How does this look?” she was wearing a long sun-dress, showing it off to Gu Qing Shan with a twirl.
“Nice! It’s very beautiful” Gu Qing Shan raised his thumb.
“But there’s also this other dress that’s quite nice, I have to try it on as well” saying so, Su Xue Er ran off again.
Gu Qing Shan wiped his cold sweat.
That was dangerous.
Su Xue Er almost saw that pink bikini.
She would’ve thought of me as a pervert.
A long time later, Su Xue Er finally finished trying out clothes.
It was now nighttime.
“Are you hungry yet?”
“I’m still fine, but if you’re hungry…”
The two of them went to dinner.
There was only one diner in this town.
Legends have it that no matter how many people get in, this diner would never be full.
At its peak, it served 400 million customers at once.
The two freely chose a place to sit down.
“Strange, this is a vacation resort but there’s no one here at all” Gu Qing Shan looked around.
There was literally no one in the town.
Himself and Su Xue Er were the only two wandering aimlessly around town.
The shops and diner were the same.
“They’re all probably at the Bramble Bird princess’ public debut banquet” Su Xue Er commented.
“Bramble Birds…” Gu Qing Shan muttered.
“They’re mystical creatures, according to them, there are 12 kinds of spirits in the world, so they’re considered to have matured at the age of 12” Su Xue Er didn’t need to think much and simply recounted the knowledge in her mind.
“In order words, the princess is about 12 years old?”
“Correct”
“Heh, so many people go out just to see a 12 years old little girl instead of enjoying their vacation”
“There’s still us”
The two chuckled a bit looking at each other.
The night breeze swept by, refreshing and pleasant.
In the diner, they sat where the wind blew in from the window and ordered a few things on the menu.
Gu Qing Shan first ordered a glass of transparent amber wine, then some fish, bread and cheese, following Su Xue Er’s advice.
——in the infinite worlds, these were the three safer kinds of food.
The fish was caught right from the nearby lake, it was also this place’s specialty.
Gu Qing Shan’s tastes leaned a bit more on the heavy side, but he couldn’t help but admit that this fish was really good.
Since he wasn’t used to eating bread and cheese, he put them down after just a few bites.
Seeing that, Su Xue Er took it from him and ate without any hesitation.
She also ordered herself the most expensive fruit salad of the restaurant.
Gu Qing Shan also tried it and found that it tasted decent.
But they were all light foods.
Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but crave some spicy hotpot dishes.
Fortunately, the transparent amber wine was quite good, it felt refreshing in his throat.
After finishing it, Gu Qing Shan felt like having another glass.
Seeing him like that, Su Xue Er ordered Gu Qing Shan a bowl of noodles.
These noodles were a bit savory and lightly spiced, quite fitting to Gu Qing Shan’s taste.
Gu Qing Shan couldn’t even put down the chopsticks. As he ate.
Seeing that, Su Xue Er couldn’t help but try a small bite.
Then the two of them shared this bowl of noodles.
They just sat there, eating and drinking without any heavy thoughts in their hearts. Occasionally they would admire the pleasant, elegant chandeliers and artistic ornaments of the diner, or look out to enjoy the scenery of the lake outside.
Truly a pleasant time.
All of a sudden, a loud rooster-like voice could be heard.
“Hah, well what do you know, there really was someone here and not at the banquet!”
Gu Qing Shan and Su Xue Er looked back to see where the voice came from.
Only to see a large rooster and a floating log coming into the diner.
Gu Qing Shan and the rooster’s eyes met.
“Ah? Gu boy, why are you here?” the rooster couldn’t help but exclaim.
