Chapter 902: The Unprecedented Truth

Translator: La0o9 Editor: La0o9

Gu Qing Shan escorted the old lady as they continued walking forward.

Corrosion of parallel worlds… duty…

The old lady’s words had caught his attention.

From before, the Earth Creator also said something similar about stopping the Abyssal monsters from taking the twin swords Heaven and Earth.

However, the Earth Creator was only talking about preventing the Abyssal monsters from obtaining the weapon of the Eternal Abyss, thus preventing the power of traveling to parallel worlds from falling into their hands.

——-the Earth Creator never mentioned anything about the erosion of parallel worlds

Gu Qing Shan thought briefly, then asked directly: “Madame, I have a small question”

“Go ahead” the old lady responded.

“You said that your duty was to remove the parallel world erosion, but I’ve never noticed any connections between us and the parallel worlds, are parallel worlds also a threat?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“It isn’t a threat” the old lady looked at Gu Qing Shan, then added when his eyebrows relaxed just a bit: “But the Apocalypse”

“The Apocalypse?” Gu Qing Shan asked in confusion.

The other party was the sovereign of the elemental fairies, an entity that had existed since the beginning of Time, Gu Qing Shan fully believed that she would not lie about this.

The old lady said nothing and just waved her hand in front of herself.

The void of space scattered.

Everything was revealed in front of Gu Qing Shan.

A grand banquet was being held, while the old lady and him were standing grandly on a viewing platform as large as a plaza, gazing down at the enormous crowd of people below.

Sensing the arrival of their sovereign, the elemental fairies swiftly stopped their activities and bowed at the old lady on top of the viewing platform.

“No need for formalities, enjoy yourselves”

The old lady waved her hand towards the crowd below and smiled brightly.

A loud scream came out:

“That young man, I met him earlier!”

It was the voice of the Water fairy from earlier.

The old lady smiled mischievously and turned to Gu Qing Shan: “She seems a bit regretful”

Gu Qing Shan politely answered: “She was only a bit excited from seeing you, madame”

“Do you think she’s pretty?”

“Quite pretty”

“Of course, Water spirits have the most excellent figures and appearance, hm… I’ve only just noticed that you are not too far from {Mahesvara King} realm, would you like me to give you a Water spirit dependent?”

“…This humble one accepts your goodwill, but I already have a girl that I’m in love with”

The old lady appeared even more excited and lowered her voice: “Water spirits are the most suitable type of elemental fairy for humans, she can probably bear a few hundred sons and daughters for you, so there would be no problem with marrying her——– I can take responsibility as the mediator for you”

Gu Qing Shan’s body stiffen and stuttered: “But I can’t even earn enough to support myself right now, not to mention I have a lot that I still have to do”

“Hm, that is true, it isn’t suitable for you to make a family at this point in time” the old lady regretfully concurred.

Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.

The old lady left the viewing platform with Gu Qing Shan’s escort, slowly heading to the back of the royal palace.

“Let’s go and leave them to enjoy themselves, we’ll discuss a bit about your question just now” the old lady spoke as she walked.

“Yes, esteemed madame, I am a bit confused about parallel worlds, because the Earth Creator had been working to stop the Abyssal monsters from obtaining the twin swords Heaven and Earth” Gu Qing Shan said.

“Child, how good is your memory?” the old lady abruptly changed the subject and asked.

Gu Qing Shan replied in surprise: “It is decent”

“Then, can you remember what happened when you were little?”

“That is a bit too long ago so I can only remember bits and pieces”

“Was there a time in the past when you especially liked swimming?”

“You know about it? Yes, there was. It was probably in the summer when I was 6 years old”

“Did something happen that summer that you feel to be especially memorable?”

Gu Qing Shan appeared nostalgic and only replied after a while: “I think it was probably at that time that most countries in the world signed the Robot Convention, the public light screen near the swimming pool was broadcasting this matter everyday”

The old lady clapped her hands joyfully: “Then let us see the situation of the summer back when you were six years old”

Following her words, the entire world scattered to gravel and soil, vanishing around them.

The two of them appeared in another scene.

A blazing sun above their heads.

Burning hot weather.

Gu Qing Shan looked at his young self sitting on the side of the pool with nothing but a pair of swimming trunks.

Next to the pool, a large screen on the side of a building was showing a tense sports match.

Quite a few people on the side of the pool were staring at the screen, drinking beer while cheering for their favorite team.

The young Gu Qing Shan was also watching the sports match on the screen while kicking his feet in the water.

The old lady commented: “I don’t seem to see any news about a Robot Convention?”

Gu Qing Shan spoke with confidence: “The news is probably after the match, I remember quite clearly that they would broadcast news relating to robots”

The old lady mumbled an incantation and smiled: “Then let us speed things up a bit”

—–as if someone had pressed the fast forward button, the people around the pool and the flow of time itself had begun to speed up.

Until a certain point when the public screen changed.

[We interrupt this program to bring you important news]

[The world-wide Robot Convention has been established and signed with the following details:]

The scene of the world leaders was displayed sitting in a large conference room with one of them speaking directly to the press.

[We established this convention in order to prevent robots…]

Their voices emerged from inside the screen.

For some reason, Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief from seeing this.

“Please look, madame”

He pointed at the screen and told the old lady.

The old lady smiled: “Hm, I can see it, this was a good thing, your society had taken a step forward onto a new path”

“But what we need to observe now isn’t the news in your memories, but rather——”

The old lady waved her hand downwards.

The sound of the screen stopped.

The speaking world leader maintained his dignified appearance with one hand resolutely stopping in mid-air.

Everyone around the pool also froze in place.

One person was licking ice cream from their cup;

Another had leapt into the air and about was to dive into the water, his body frozen mid-air;

Another person was yawning with their mouth opened wide;

And some were swimming below, the water they splashed hovered without moving.

“Is this [Time Stop]?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“No, this is a technique to pause Time—— consider it a small party trick of mine”

The old lady replied and pointed around him: “Now, I want to test you a little bit, take a careful look at these people around you and find something wrong”

Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

Something wrong? What does that mean…

But since she had told him to, Gu Qing Shan could only nod to signify his understanding and turned towards the pool.

While walking, he carefully observed everyone and everything around him.

The pool was normal.

The people were normal.

The structures and buildings were normal.

Even the public screen was fine.

Gu Qing Shan checked it all again and turned towards the old lady questioningly.

Gu Qing Shan couldn’t see her eyes because of the veil she wore over her face, but he could sense the smile beneath that.

That attitude clearly showed that something was indeed wrong here.

This was a mundane scene in the past, so what could be wrong with it?

Gu Qing Shan convinced himself to try again and continued to circle around the swimming pool.

He even released his inner sight to scan the entire swimming pool at once.

The pool was normal.

The people were normal.

The structures and buildings were normal.

Even the public screen was fine.

Wait a minute…

Gu Qing Shan suddenly stopped and looked carefully at a young man.

The man had an unremarkable appearance, wore a pair of swimming shorts with a can of beer in his hand while leaning on his chair to watch the content on the public screen.

He appeared a bit excited with one fist clenched, apparently about to loudly cheer.

Loudly cheer?

Gu Qing Shan observed his seemingly normal man.

Then he couldn’t help moving closer towards the man to observe him.

Although Gu Qing Shan could already see more than clear enough with his inner sight, he still wanted to check with his own eyes—— as if anything else wouldn’t be able to convince him.

Gu Qing Shan carefully observed the man and felt a chill run down his spine.

That’s impossible…

Gu Qing Shan felt shocked, a sense of unprecedented fear was grasping at his heart.

He abruptly turned around to look at the public screen.

——–the world leader on the public screen was still making the dignified expression suitable for a formal speech with one hand raised to the air.

That’s right!

He was declaring the establishment of the Robot Convention!

Gu Qing Shan turned around to observe the young man.

The young man had a look of expectation on his face and was holding his breath as if to wait for the next second.

He was already prepared to scream out in cheer and support.

His eyes reflected the scene on the screen.

Normally, it required special equipment in order to clearly extract the reflection inside a person’s eyes.

But through his inner sight, Gu Qing Shan was more than capable of zooming out the image within a stationary person’s eye with pinpoint accuracy.

In the man’s eyes, a group of sportsmen were trying to compete for the ball, struggling for the final victory of the match.

The man wasn’t seeing anything related to the Robot Convention at all.

Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but retreat a few steps.

He released his inner sight again to scan through the entire swimming pool.

He then found out a terrifying truth.

Although the screen was clearly reporting news of the Robot Convention, at least a third of the people here were still watching the ball game.

Gu Qing Shan retreated a few more steps in shock.

At the exact same time, while the report of a Robot Convention that would affect the future development of the entire world was being broadcasted, why are so many still unable to see it?

This eerie event caused his perception of the world to change, completely over-turning his understanding.

——–if something that happened right next to me wasn’t true for everyone else, then what is?

What were my experiences up to now exactly?

Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to remain calm.

The old lady was pleased to see that he was able to retain his calm even now.

This level of truth was normal enough to ruin the will of many, but this young man was able to remain a lot calmer than most.

The old lady muttered with satisfaction: “What a calm child, no wonder the Earth Creator wanted me to see you once”

Gu Qing Shan returned and respectfully asked: “Madame, I don’t understand, what exactly is going on?”

The old lady asked in return: “Do you still remember what we were talking about in the beginning?”

Gu Qing Shan was surprised and quickly recalled.

Indeed, this esteemed sovereign of the elemental fairies had acted herself to help him remove the presence of the parallel worlds.

And the two of them were talking about parallel worlds just now.
