The North Pole.

Through Impartial Goddess’ instructions, everyone arrived at the small cabin at the top of the North Pole.

“The Guardian was killed here?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[Indeed, sir, this was also the place where those people stayed so far] Impartial Goddess answered.

“Where’s the spaceship?”

[The spaceship is currently sitting on the entire North Pole]

“…so big?”

[Sir, I can attempt to bypass the security of the spaceship in order for you to gain entry, would you like me to do so?]

Hearing that, Barry looked to Kitty.

“Don’t look at me, bro. Yes, I can bring everyone inside” Kitty crossed her arms, “but a spaceship is a Technological creation, it won’t do us any good just by going inside”

“I really don’t understand technology at all” Barry mumbled.

Gu Qing Shan then spoke: “Impartial Goddess, you said you were created here?”

[Indeed, sir]

“Seems like the technology here must be really advanced” Zhang Ying Hao commented.

Impartial Goddess added: [It is not only advanced, there are a lot of technology here that goes far above the current era, but the Guardian had always prioritized safety in fear of being discovered from outer space, so she had kept them all sealed here without using them]

Hearing that, Barry commented: “In the current era, when the Apocalypse descends and civilizations compete against one another, every powerful civilization tries their best to become even stronger and take resources for themselves to ensure survival. While civilizations that only know how to hide within their presumed safety can only slowly fall to ruin”

Kitty agreed: “Indeed, perhaps this person had wanted to preserve the embers of their civilization, but such conservative methods would only keep their civilization from advancement and making them obsolete, slowly falling out of the race to survival”

Gu Qing Shan then spoke: “Impartial Goddess, I hope that this world will obtain that advanced technology because the current situation is too unpredictable, no one could know what will come in the future”

[Do you want all the technology sir?] Impartial Goddess asked.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “Yes, I’ll leave dealing with this spaceship to you, do everything in your power to grasp all of its secret”

[You can be assured, sir. I will complete this mission without fail] Impartial Goddess replied.

An intense engine sound could be heard from the sky.

The S.W. Divine Temple had already entered the North Pole’s orbit since a while ago, and now it was slowly descending.

The interstellar fortress contains Impartial Goddess’ central processing core.

It seems she was serious about this.

[I will need some time to locate the spaceship’s gate and control room, please take a rest for now] Impartial Goddess told them.

Following her words, large amounts of Mechs came out from the interstellar fortress.

These Mechs followed different directions and began to scout the vicinity of the North Pole for the spaceship’s structures.

At this time, Kitty seemed to have realized something.

She asked the void of space: “What is it?”

A voice came from the void of space: “Today’s newspaper has been printed and distributed, the news Mr. Barry provided has taken the front page, we have provided Mr.Barry 10 copies of today’s issue for free”

“Alright then, give me the newspaper, what about our pay?” Kitty said.

“I wanted to ask which type of currency would you prefer to be paid in”

“The Spire’s common currency is fine since a lot of high-ranking worlds accept it”

“Very well, we will prepare it immediately”

The voice disappeared after saying this much.

A stack of newspaper dropped down from the void of space, landing in Kitty’s hands.

“Let’s see what they wrote” Kitty smiled.

She casually swung her hand and a copy of the newspaper flew into everyone’s hands.

Everyone started reading.

“That’s great, they contacted quite a few heavyweights to form a team to investigate God Institute for this matter. Seems like they intend to do a serial report on this” Barry commented as he read the news.

“To be able to form such a huge team so quickly, the Spire Keeper Association is a very powerful organization” Gu Qing Shan commented.

Kitty smiled and explained: “It’s actually because of luck more than anything else, the Bramble Bird’s commendation had just finished, many people couldn’t help but thoroughly enjoy themselves during this rare occasion where they met each other, so news of God Institute must’ve come as a surprise to them all”

“And since the Spire was the one forming an expedition, knowing how well they paid, such a powerful scouting party could be easily formed”

“Originally, I was worried that God Institute might target Barry directly, but now it seems like they’ll have to worry about themselves first before anything else” Gu Qing Shan said.

While they were talking, loud noises could be heard coming from outside.

Gu Qing Shan left the room to check it.

He found that a large door had opened on the frozen ground not too far away from where they were.

Several different drones were busy with their work around the metallic gate.

Occasionally, some of the drones would unintentionally touch the collection of machines near the gates and instantly get turned into beehives by intense firepower from below.

Impartial Goddess’ voice came out: [Sir, I’m currently attempting to bypass the spaceship’s defense mechanisms and search for the ship’s central processing core]

Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and spoke: “If that’s the case, there’s no meaning in us coming down there at all, you can just keep up with the work”

[Very well, sir]

“If there are any emergency, you can contact us”

[Understood]

Gu Qing Shan returned to the small room.

He closed the door to block out the icy wind outside and heated up the fireplace.

The room became warm.

Everyone had already heard what he said, so Zhang Ying Hao asked: “What are we doing now?”

“There’s really nothing to do, so we’ll just drink for a bit and chat”

He tapped his Inventory Bag to take out a few of his most precious liquor as well as some spirit cooking and fruits.

Everyone pulled their own chairs to sit around the fireplace.

Checking the bottles on the table, Zhang Ying Hao commented: “These are the liquor from another world, aren’t they?”

“Hm, a cultivator’s liquor” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Zhang Ying Hao stood up: “Then I’ll go back to get some of our world’s liquor. Gotta let our guests try a bit of local specialities as well”

“Good idea, use the warp device to return, and bring Liao Xing with you”

“You sure?” Zhang Ying Hao hesitantly asked.

His gaze fell on Kitty briefly before gesturing with his eyes to Gu Qing Shan.

Kitty herself was pretty and had a nice figure, as well as a pair of cute cat ears resting on her head, so she exuded both wild and innocent beauty, two completely opposite charm points.

If that pervert Liao Xing comes and does something inappropriate to anger Kitty, the aftermath won’t be pretty.

Gu Qing Shan instantly understood what Zhang Ying Hao meant.

He tapped his forehead and answered: “Then don’t let him come in here, just get him to go directly to helping Impartial Goddess breaking the ship’s defense system”

Ye Fei Li also spoke up: “Good idea, if Liao Xing saw that spaceship outside, he’ll probably be so excited he won’t sleep for days”

He then stood up and followed Zhang Ying Hao outside.

“Why are you going as well?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“It’s been a while since I returned. My wife is probably worried, so I need to go back and see her first before anything else” Ye Fei Li explained.

They both left.

Only Barry, Kitty and Gu Qing Shan were left in the room.

“That shy youngster, Ye Fei Li, what is your relationship with him?” Kitty asked a seemingly casual question.

“He’s a close friend” Gu Qing Shan answered.

Barry and Kitty exchanged glances.

Barry considers a bit before saying: “He seems to be an infant-stage World Destroyer”

“World Destroyer?” Gu Qing Shan doubtfully asked.

Kitty continued: “Yeah, his growth will be rapid, an ultimate World Destroyer is comparable to an Old God, although only one of them had ever appeared”

“Can you tell us more about him?” Barry kept going.

If it was anyone else asking, Gu Qing Shan would’ve reconsidered before answering.

But both Barry and Kitty were decent people, Barry’s questioning tone was also accompanied by a sense of caring and worry.

Without holding anything back, Gu Qing Shan carefully told them about Ye Fei Li’s circumstances.

“Even after losing his humanity, he was still able to care about his mother, I somewhat approve of him now” Barry praised.

“He even thought about going back to report his safety to his wife. If you had told me that a cold-blooded murderous World Destroyer would be so wife-whipped, I wouldn’t have believed you” Kitty commented.

She then took out a book and wrote down Ye Fei Li’s circumstances.

“What’s a World Destroyer?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Barry explained: “High-ranked lifeforms who have lost their humanity that can use any other life form as fuel for their evolution. Such high-ranked lifeforms would usually lose their rationality and turn into a monster that only lives to kill”

“We used to have quite a few of these lifeforms in our world” Gu Qing Shan told him.

“You mean humans who were infected by the virus? Usually, humans infected that way can only siphon a tiny bit of energy from the lifeforms they kill, they’re hardly high-ranked lifeforms”

“But that friend of yours is very different. I can tell that he’s already reached the primary level of a World Destroyer, and he can even use Soul Points” while scribing in her notes, Kitty added without looking up: “High-ranked lifeforms like him have a lot of experimental values, various large organizations around the 900 million World Layers have put up bounties, hoping to get their hands on a World Destroyer specimen”

“Ye Fei Li still has his rationality and emotions, he’s not a monster that only knows to kill” Gu Qing Shan emphasized this.

Barry nodded: “I’ve been observing him, you are indeed correct, this truly is a rare occurrence”

“What does that mean?”

Kitty explained: “That means his existence is even more precious than a normal World Destroyer. Just think about it, while retaining his rationality or emotions, as long as he can keep on killing, he can siphon their soul’s power into himself to evolve his abilities and soul, how powerful do you think such an ability is?”

“He doesn’t need the [Demon King Order] or to work for anyone, by himself he can become stronger and stronger without end, the simplest and most brute-force method to become strong”

Barry followed up: “Countless organizations and forces will pay an astronomical price for that, they will crave to obtain Ye Fei Li, use his body and soul in order to research and experiment in hope of obtaining the same ability”

Gu Qing Shan looked at Barry, then at Kitty.

Both of them had calm expressions without anything but a bit of concern in their eyes.

Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.

With their strength, this pair of brother and sister can easily capture Ye Fei Li to exchange for a huge bounty.

They will thoroughly escape the life of poverty.

But even after confirming Ye Fei Li’s situation, this pair of brother and sister only felt concerned for Ye Fei Li and nothing else.

Gu Qing Shan sighed again.

He suddenly realized the true reason why Barry and Kitty were poor.

“Then, what should I do in order to solve Ye Fei Li’s problem?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Kitty looked at Gu Qing Shan, then at Barry.

“Bro, what do you think?” Kitty asked this with some sort of clear intention.

Barry fell into thought briefly before answering: “That brat is a bit shy, but he’s done good things, I think it’s fine”

Kitty agreed: “That’s right, this is a World Destroyer we’re talking about, and a rare one as well. If we put him in the club, not only can we be assured, others won’t easily try anything against him either”

“And more importantly, he’ll soon reach the next stage of his evolution”
