Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God
Chapter 209: The Woman With No Shadow

When Red Tail’s report was handed to Gu Nan, the latter was trying to enter Immortal Demon World for the fifth time.

Of course the result was a failure. The repulsive force of the world still existed, but it was getting weaker every time. After waiting for a period of time, it would be possible to enter again.

"63 Dao Lords with Dao Halls on the planetary ring have been gathered. Not bad." Gu Nan nodded slightly. "If these people are obedient, that can save a lot of time."

Gu Nan really needed to take control of Heaven and Earth Star as soon as possible not only to serve as a distraction from White Mist, but also to find Luo Jie and Luo Fei as fast as possible.

Although Gu Nan was certain that he could heavily injure or even kill these two if they met again, the problem now was finding them.

After all, battles in this world weren’t as simple as showing off your fighting strength, and the loser would commit suicide. If he wanted to kill the Luo siblings, he must find them first.

Once upon a time, many people were afraid of cornering or killing Gu Nan for fear that he might escape them, then retaliate against their organizations. But now the times had changed, and it was his turn to stand in the pursuer’s position.

But Gu Nan was different from those powerful figures—he didn’t care at all about his organization’s continued survival.

Even if someone actually managed to flatten White Mist with a slap one day, he would only need to spend some extra time to set up another organization. After all, the steps related to the translation method were all in Gu Nan's mind.

"Then, I hope you guys are obedient." A cold smile hung on the corners of Gu Nan’s lips as he stepped out and appeared on the planetary ring.

Space was something that could be manipulated at will for Void Cutter cultivators.

Since the King of the Deep Sea could instantly visit Heaven and Earth Star from the Central Region, Gu Nan could naturally do the same.

……

"Here he comes." Red Tail looked at the shadow descending from the air and whispered, "Why don’t you rest? Aren’t you exhausted these days?"

Lin Yunyun shook her head. She actually liked doing work, and it would be even better if the work didn’t require her to interact with people.

"Mom, aren't you going to greet him?"

"No need. Most bigshots don't care about common courtesies like these." Red Tail just smiled.

She believed that she was quite accurate in judging people, especially Gu Nan, who had hardly ever concealed his true thoughts and was always straightforward.

He didn’t even care about much of White Mist’s authority. Of course he wouldn’t care about a trivial thing like this.

But just because he didn’t hide his thoughts didn’t mean that this person was simple and could be manipulated.

Red Tail had seen many smart people in her life, some of whom survived and some of whom died. The proportion of the latter wasn’t actually lower than that of ordinary people.

In other words, intelligence was meaningless in the face of unmatched power.

As she walked to her own private room, Red Tail silently told herself: ‘I must take care not to step out of bounds and never let my desire for power affect the amount of loyalty I reveal.’

With that in mind, she pushed the door open, but she couldn't help freezing.

Because in front of her, a woman with a blank expression was sitting quietly in her seat.

This woman was dressed in bright yellow palace clothes, and her long hair was scattered at random on both sides, but it didn’t seem messy at all. Instead, it had a somewhat strange beauty.

Red Tail’s pupils contracted slightly. She hadn’t sensed the other party’s presence at all. Even with the other party right in front of her, she still couldn’t sense anything, as if this person was just an illusion.

"You are…"

"Hello, my name is Xue Yan." The woman's voice was very soft and polite, but her tone was still blank. "I want to ask you something."

"Hello… What is it?" Red Tail smiled and said hello, then turned on the light.

The white light finally revealed what she wanted to confirm, but the result wasn’t necessarily what she wanted—this woman named Xue Yan had no shadow.

……

"He’s here."

"That Lord is here."

The Dao Lords appeared one by one in the small courtyard, looking into the air. Although they couldn’t see anything, the energy fluctuations in the sky couldn’t be hidden.

They also knew that person intentionally released this aura to notify them in advance. Otherwise, how could they sense the appearance of a Void Cutter expert in advance?

Gu Nan slowly stepped out of the void, looking exactly the same as before. He still maintained the appearance of a mortal.

However, all the Dao Lords bowed down and greeted in unison, "We greet Your Excellency."

Gu Nan just waved his hand casually. "Let's get down to business."

Elder Pan, the Mystical Heaven Dao Lord, stood at the forefront of the Dao Lords. He glanced at Gu Nan's side and was relieved when he confirmed Red Tail’s absence.

‘That Red Tail thinks she can rest easy because of her high position… In the end, she’s too relaxed.’

Cang Lian, the female Dao Lord next to him, took the lead in saying, "Since Your Excellency sent down an order, we will naturally obey it, but one matter needs to be explained first. My Lord summoned us here in a hurry, and there are 15 Daoist friends—"

"They can do whatever," Gu Nan interrupted. "I'll set up a new organization. All the Dao Halls must join under a unified rule."

"Three days later, all the Dao Halls on the planetary ring that don't belong to us will be destroyed."

After a pause, Gu Nan's indifferent eyes swept across the crowd. "Does anyone object?"

There was an oppressive silence among all the Dao Lords. Some people changed expressions while others glared, but no one made a sound.

Elder Pan lowered his eyes and his hands seemed to tremble slightly.

This was not a discussion—this was an announcement!

‘So this is a true high and mighty Void Cutter existence?’

"That’s impossible!" The Qing Shi Dao Lord was the first to object. "The Dao Hall is our foundation. If we move it so casually, won’t the title of ‘Dao Lord’ become a joke?"

His expression looked like the matter was completely non-negotiable. "Even when the two esteemed Luo siblings were here, they never proposed something like this—"

Gu Nan's cold eyes glanced at the Qing Shi Dao Lord. The next moment, dark shadows gently circled around his neck. The head of this Dao Lord level genius suddenly fell off.

Even before he advanced, Gu Nan was still able to kill Dao Lords like slaughtering dogs. Of course the current him could do it with even less effort.

"Who else objects?" Gu Nan asked calmly.

Gu Nan's words didn't seem particularly cold, but the sense of apathy revealed deep in his bones was like a basin of cold water, which kept the Dao Lords from opening their mouths.

Elder Pan glanced at the decapitated head at his feet, but his expression didn't change at all. He just asked, "We have no objection, but this old man is curious about just one thing."

"What?"

"Will the leader of the new organization perhaps be… White Mist’s Red Tail?” The Mystical Heaven Dao Lord’s aged voice was calm, and his face revealed nothing.

But from the expressions of the people behind him, it wasn’t hard to tell that this question was the crucial question they wanted to ask.

It was nothing shameful to attach themselves to a Void Cutter Realm powerhouse. Rather, it would be stupid to oppose such a figure.

The only thing the Dao Lords didn’t want to see was for Red Tail to be an intermediary, so that this one’s intention couldn’t be directly conveyed to them.

"Of course… not." Gu Nan explained casually, "The leader of the new organization will be my apostle."
