Chapter 46: Meeting Again

An old man was standing next to the young lady as he replied in a very gentlemanly manner, “I think none of them expected you to come here, and now they are all so pleasantly surprised that they are unable to speak.”

The old man smiled and looked at everyone, but then he spotted Huang Hui lying on the floor with a face full of blood and not able to get up no matter how hard he tried.

The old man gaped in shock, then motioned to the men behind him.

A few bodyguards rushed forward to help Huang Hui up.

One of them stretched a hand out and pressed it against Huang Hui’s face.

His bleeding stopped, and his swollen face went back to normal.

After Huang Hui was healed, he looked at the beautiful lady in front of his eyes, and all the anger he felt earlier was gone.

He whispered, “Elder Kang, this is…?”

The old man glared at him, then looked toward the beautiful lady with fiery red hair and said, “Your Highness, let me introduce you. This man here is from one of our nine counties’ magistrate’s family. He is the Huang family’s…”

“Oh wow! Who made these shots?”


Anna completely ignored the other party and exclaimed as she walked to the end of the archery range and looked at the wall excitedly.

The five men hanging on the wall would groan every now and then from pain.

The old man’s expression immediately fell when he realized that the wall at the end of the archery range had people hanging from it.

What was going on? An important guest had come to the capital of the Federation for a diplomatic visit, and she had to witness a fight?

And why were there policemen here?

Since when were the police in the capital unable to even handle this sort of thing?!

This was a serious PR disaster!

Anger was rising within the old man, and he was going to spew fire from his mouth.

“This technique is really not bad. I would like to learn it. Could I ask who made these shots?” asked Anna excitedly as she turned around.

Everything the old man wanted to say was stuck in his throat.

Everyone was equally speechless when they saw this happening.

Anyone could clearly see that a fight had just occurred here, and the fight got so bad that they were on the verge of killing each other off.

But then this princess felt that pinning people to the wall with arrows was fairly interesting.

Rumor had it that the princess of the Empire did everything the way she liked, and there were many things she did that were often shocking or difficult to understand. Now they had seen for themselves that this rumor was actually true.

They weren’t sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing for that young man.

He was still safe even after hitting Huang Hui, but if he offended the eldest princess of Saint Olanka Empire, the mighty Princess Anna Medici, then it would be hard to say…

Everyone’s eyes were focused on Gu Qingshan.

Gu Qingshan’s lips twitched when he saw how Anna was pretending to look around curiously.

Gu Qingshan had no idea why she had turned up in this place and didn’t know what she was up to.

He wasn’t afraid of her, but he wasn’t confident about what to do next.

Anna slowly made her way over and stood in front of Gu Qingshan as she asked a question with great admiration.

“Were you the one who shot those guys onto the wall?”

Everyone watching started wiping their perspiration.

“That’s right.”

Gu Qingshan decided to just respond honestly.

Anna’s expression changed, and she curtsied as she replied solemnly, “I have not practiced my skills in this aristocratic sport for many years now. Since your archery skills seem to be so accurate and impressive, please teach me your ways, for the sake of the continued friendship between our two nations.”

This was such a standard way of speaking and behavior among aristocrats. Everything, from her words to her actions.

Gu Qingshan really wanted to turn and leave, but he managed to stop himself from doing so.

He really didn’t know what to do after Anna had said something like this.

Gu Qingshan didn’t want to be in the public eye too much. He just wanted to quietly enjoy his days in the university while waiting for the apocalypse to start.

But since the princess of the Empire was already standing in front of him, and he was surrounded by aristocrats as well as top-level bodyguards and secret agents from the Federation, everyone would be a witness to everything that happened in this place.

In other words, he couldn’t do anything to offend the princess in front of so many people. Even the president would have no choice in such a situation.

He decided to just go along with it since it was Anna who had landed him in this situation.

Gu Qingshan sighed quietly and bowed back. “Your request is my honor.”

“Yay!” Anna cheekily winked as she waved a small hand in the air. “Clear the place!”

All the bodyguards went around to ask everyone to leave the archery range politely.

If you looked carefully, you would notice that these professional bodyguards also looked a little defeated at this moment.

The Empire’s princess wanted to clear the place everywhere she went, even when she went to the bathroom. So the bodyguards were numb to this and they didn’t know what to say to this.

But nobody dared to raise any objections or complaints.

The king of Saint Olanka Empire was a force to be reckoned with.

Even the princess herself was a fearsome character among the Elemental Arts Experts.

Apparently, her Spirit Power of Fire had reached the fourth stage, Crackly Sun.

The lowest stage of the Spirit Power of Fire was Flames, then Roaring Flame.

From the third stage, Molten Lava, onward, every increase in stage would increase the power of the Expert exponentially.

The fourth stage, Crackly Sun, had already surpassed 90% of anyone using Spirit Power.

So even if Anna weren’t a princess, her ability alone would be enough for her to receive great respect and honor.

So anyone who could get the affirmation from this woman who was both royalty and was powerful within the Elemental Arts world would definitely stand to benefit.

Huang Hui quickly brought a few men over and said with a smile on his face, “Your Highness, it is my honor to be at your service.”

Anna pointed to the wall. A few bodyguards were trying to take the men down from it.

She asked, “You know how to do that?”

“I don’t, but I’m the second son of the Huang family, and I’m fairly familiar with the capital. I guarantee that…”

Anna widened her large and pretty eyes as she asked innocently, “If you don’t know how to do this, then why are you still standing here?”

Huang Hui froze on the spot.

“I don’t make friends with useless people.” Anna called out, “Men! Clear the place!”

These words were like a heavy hammer that smashed Huang Hui’s pride to pieces.

Huang Hui was politely taken out of the archery range.

When he left, he glared hatefully at Gu Qingshan.

Gu Qingshan wasn’t bothered at all.

It was just the hate from a useless wastrel, so he could break him anytime.

Gu Qingshan walked over to Anna and said in a low voice, “What are you trying to do? You’re making things very difficult for me.”

Anna could sense his unhappiness, so she replied a little sadly, “I miss Scorpius.”

These few words made all of Gu Qingshan’s unhappiness go away.

“I really… you… at least let me know you’re coming next time,” he said as he shook his head.

Anna kept away the sad look on her face as she smiled beautifully and picked up a bow from the shelf at the side.

She said, “Teach me archery first. I have something to ask you later.”

Gu Qingshan was about to reply when a light suddenly flew across his eyes, and a line of bright red text appeared in front of him.

“The time flow is still not flowing correctly, so your time in the real world is up.”

“Player must enter the other world within the next five minutes, otherwise, this incorrect flow will become permanent.”

“Warning: If player does not enter the other world, you will no longer be able to enter it again.”

Gu Qingshan was rooted to the spot as if he had just been struck by lightning.

Why was it like that now?

It wasn’t the first time he had gone through Space-time Turbulence, and he had gone in and out of both worlds smoothly all this while. Why was this happening now?

Was it because he had entered that strange other space along the way?

There were many weird sights within the Space-time Turbulence, and some of them could affect the player. But Gu Qingshan had never heard of any of those things being able to affect how time flowed.

Or did that mean that the weird other space he’d gone through was more special than all the other strange spaces recorded in history?

But he hadn’t even bothered with that huge corpse nailed to the bronze pillar!

There was no time to think now. Gu Qingshan dragged Anna to a corner and whispered, “I need your help.”

Anna looked at him and asked curiously, “What is it?”

“I—”

Gu Qingshan didn’t know where to start.

But he had to act fast. He had to disappear within five minutes without anyone knowing.

But the entire club was now surrounded by bodyguards and other security details in order to ensure Princess Anna’s safety.

Even if he wanted to run away by himself, five minutes wasn’t enough to get through all the various levels of security if he didn’t settle Anna down.

But once the time was up, Gu Qingshan had to leave for the other world.

If all these security details witnessed how he disappeared, that would surely stir things up.

Gu Qingshan wasn’t afraid of that happening, really. But it was a troublesome thing to handle and would affect his future plans.

Anna stole a glance at him since he wasn’t talking.


His eyes were a pretty amber color, and his eyelashes were very long. Every time he used his bow and arrow, his eyes would narrow slightly and look focused and energetic at the same time.

When he was mixing drinks, there would be a mist over his eyes, as if he was in another world.

His dressing was very plain and simple.

But this plainly dressed man was that same guy who had walked out of the bar, killed off several Martial Arts practitioners, and even brought down mechas.

Some people had to use their clothing in order to throw their weight about, but he didn’t.

He showed no mercy when he had to kill, but then he knew how to behave on TV. He just looked down and didn’t say a single word.

Von Hord had said that Gu Qingshan was a little difficult to understand. But Anna didn’t think so. She figured that he was just a little nervous in front of the camera.

And now he was standing in front of her and looking like he didn’t know what to say. That was interesting in itself.

Anna was in an excellent mood, and her lips curled upwards slightly.

She put her hands behind her back and leaned forward slightly as she asked, “Why is it so hard for you to tell me? Don’t tell me you like me.”
