Chapter 202: 5 Elements

A bit later in the day, Gu Qing Shan, Anna and Zhang Ying Hao returned to the mountain-top mansion.

“My god! My God! I’ve seen the news, but this is still very unbelievable!” Liao Xing active went to open the door.

He stared at princess Anna, carefully scanned over her beautiful face, then peered all over her gorgeous figure.

He held a rare expression of excitement and declared very loudly: “Princess Anna, your Royal Highness, I shall be your proud protector knight, you can make yourself at home in this humble manor”

“This is my mansion you know” Zhang Ying Hao spoke with annoyance.

Liao Xing ignored him, very gallantly bowed down and held out his hand.

This was perfect hand kissing etiquette of the Holy Empire, except he was supposed to have waited until Anna extend her hand first before trying to take it.

“Pardon me but, this person is?” Anna didn’t immediately put out her hand, instead asking Gu Qing Shan in a low voice.

Before Gu Qing Shan could say anything, Zhang Ying Hao had already explained: “The old pervert we told you about before”

“Ah, then nice to meet you” Anna decided against putting her hand out and smiled.

Liao Xing still kept his posture, as if he wouldn’t let go if he didn’t get to kiss her hand.

He kept going: “Your Highness, you truly are very beautiful, please allow me to help clean your room and your clothes from now on, I guarantee I’ll always do an exceptional job!”

“My room and my clothes?” Anna asked.

“Yes, as your faithful servant, please be assured and allow me to take care of them for you” Liao Xing quickly said.

Anna knitted her brows tightly.

Gu Qing Shan felt his head hurt, about to open his mouth to stop this, but Anna stopped him.

“A servant are you? Very well” Anna squints her eyes, “but if you ever dare to enter my room or touch my clothes, then…”

She casually grabbed the door handle, melted it into a ball of metal, then molded it into a long and intricate metal drill.

As she held it in her hand, the drill got heated so much it was glowing red.

The air was even being bent by the high heat of the drill.

Holding the drill in front of herself, Anna traced it across her tounge before finishing the other half of her sentence.

“…I will personally have you know how it feels to have this drilled into your body”

She was emitting an intense and dangerous pressure.

Liao Xing was shocked stiff.

A cold breeze blew through.

Staring at the glowing hot metal drill, Liao Xing couldn’t help but tremble.

His expression changed instantly and very solemnly said: “Your Royal Highness, no person in this world dares to touch your belongings. I swear with my honor, there would be no one in this place that shall ever infringe on your dignity”

“That’s great, then we’ll have a perfectly fine cohabitation”

Saying so, Anna molded the drill back into the door knob and reattached it.

They went inside.

“Where’s Ye Fei Li?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“He left again shortly after coming back, said he’ll be killing some more” Liao Xing answered.

“That’s great, very hard working of him” Gu Qing Shan praised.

“Killing? You encourage your team members to murder?” Anna asked, very confused.

“Ah, right, he’s the world’s strongest Man Killer Fiend, so he needs to kill to increase his strength”

“So you’re saying we stand on the side of the Man Killer Fiends?” Anna questioned further.

“No, no, no, that’s not correct either”

Gu Qing Shan spend the time to clear all her misunderstandings.

“What you’re saying is that the strongest Man Killer Fiend on the world is the one acting at the Murder Clown, then what about this old pervert?” Anna pointed at Liao Xing.

“His name is Liao Xing” Gu Qing Shan answered.

“The Liao Xing from 30 years ago? He doesn’t look like him at all” Anna didn’t expect to hear that.

“It’s him, Impartial Goddess had his appearance changed”

“Mr. Zhang Ying Hao, I know that you and Gu Qing Shan are good friends, but I still don’t know what you do exactly” Anna looked towards Zhang Ying Hao and asked, her tone head a bit more respect than before.

Zhang Ying Hao threw a coin over.

Anna caught and looked at it.

Depicted on the coin was an eye with a vertical iris and a number 0 on the back.

Anna instantly recognized the coin’s origin and exclaimed in shock: “The Hunter’s Association No.0, so you’re their boss”

“That’s me indeed” Zhang Ying Hao answered.

Throwing the coin back to him, Anna nodded in contemplation.

“Seems like you’re not just a team of frauds” she spoke.

“Of course not, and I welcome your participation” Gu Qing Shan smiled and spoke.

“What do you need me to do? I’ll say this first, I only know how to fight” Anna asked.

“It’s something to do with the game, I need you to help with changing the power standard of this world from now on” Gu Qing Shan answered.

“Power standard? What do you mean by that?” Anna asked with intrigue.

“Do you remember the power standard for Elementalist?”

“Don’t look down on my like that, I already memorized them all you know”

“Is that so? Please elaborate then”

Anna recalled for a bit then quickly spoke: “Normally, all elements have 5 stages”

“Earth element, first stage Movement, second stage Entrapment, third stage Landslide, fourth stage Summon Stars, fifth stage Collapse of All”

“Metal element, first stage Razor Sharp, second stage Metal Thread, third stage Howling Steel, fourth stage World Divisor, fifth stage Weapons Creation”

“Wood element, first stage Life Force, second stage True Poison, third stage The Plague, fourth stage Suffering Souls, fifth stage Life Creation”

“Water element, first stage Water Control, second stage Frost Mist, third stage Return to Silence, fourth stage Unlife, fifth stage Sealed”

“Fire element, first stage Ember, second stage Flame, third stage Magma, fourth stage Burning Sun, fifth stage World’s End”

Anna continued pridefully: “And I’m a Burning Sun stage Elementalist”

Gu Qing Shan spoke: “You’re an Elementalist that also has a God’s Chosen Skill. A very good example of a Professionist, so I want you to learn a few things from me for the sake of a demonstration later on”

“Learn something from you?”

“Hm, what I teach you will have a lot of impact on your personal strength, so it’s a win-win” Gu Qing Shan very sincerely said.

Anna showed a smiling expression, crossed her arms and looked at Gu Qing Shan.

“Dummy, beat me first, then we’ll talk about who teaches who”

Before she even finished, she felt a chill.

A sword was placed squarely at her neck, cold and merciless.

Anna blinked a few times, tracing the blade back to the sword hilt in Gu Qing Shan’s hand.

Gu Qing Shan spoke: “You are very strong, and very talented indeed, but you’ve never really went through formal training. No one in this world has ever went through formal training, that’s why I want to teach you about that first”

“That’s not right, I was just letting my guard down, let’s go again”

“Very well” Gu Qing Shan retract his sword.

Anna’s entire body let out an intense heat, creating a Blade of fire in her hand.

“Now, let’s see who teaches who!” she said.

Her neck felt cold, the sword was softly placed at her neck again.

Anna was stunned.

Holding the sword, Gu Qing Shan slowly explained: “Your power isn’t backed up by appropriate energy, plus you’re standing too close to me, so I could’ve easily kill you numerous times over in a single minute”

“How did you do that?” Anna asked.

“If you’re willing to learn from me, you can also grasp such a simple trick”

“Hmph, I wasn’t using my full power just now” Anna was still unconvinced.

She looked around, then said as if provoking: “It’s not very convenient here, how about we take it outside?”

“That’s fine, the first thing you need to know is what the source of power is like anyways” Gu Qing Shan nodded.

They walked outside.

As they opened the door, Ye Fei Li had just landed.

“What’s going on?” he looked at Anna, then at Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan introduced the two of them, then told Ye Fei Li: “You can go rest first, we’re just going to spar for a little bit and go back quickly”

“A fight? Can I watch?” Ye Fei Li was interested.

“Do as you like”

Saying so, the three of them left.

Zhang Ying Hao and Liao Xing exchanged looks, then also followed.
