Chapter 358: The Goddess of Shadows and the Heaven-God Alliance



This certainly wasn’t Gu Nan releasing his powers to look cool; neither did he have nothing better to do. In reality, these shadows weren’t created by him at all.

"You don\'t seem to fear me…" A light, playful female voice rang out faintly in Gu Nan\'s ears and seemed to be transmitted directly into his mind.

Along with her voice, the shadows in his surroundings grew thicker and thicker, almost to the point of drowning Gu Nan.

But just when Gu Nan\'s entire body was about to be submerged, he suddenly stood up and took a single step into the shadows before him, his right hand grabbing at a spot in front of him.

"Wandering out for a stroll isn’t a good habit, Sylvia," Gu Nan\'s voice swam through the darkness, spreading throughout every corner of the shadows, but not a single sound could be heard from the outside.

Such a change came too suddenly, so much so that the “Sylvia” Gu Nan addressed was also caught off guard and was grabbed by his right hand.

The surrounding shadows quickly receded. Gu Nan\'s figure reappeared, and in his right hand, a girl in a black dress was being lifted like a chicken.

Gu Nan calmly stared at the other party. He truly didn’t expect this. He just wanted to scheme a little to ultimately acquire Cain Left’s Hand, but to think he accidentally baited out this… Mm, a big fish that wasn’t really a big fish.

Sylvia, the Goddess of Shadows.

That’s right—this was the Goddess of Shadows who shared the same source of power as Gu Nan and who wielded divine authority over the shadows.

Sylvia’s actual power wasn’t that strong. She most likely hadn’t even reached Tier 7 yet, so her divine power absolutely fit the description of a “weakling.”

But at the same time, she was also a big fish because she had a good older brother—the undisputed strongest in the entire World of Gods, the Ruler of Light and Justice.

Both siblings were gods, and it was precisely because of them that the saying “light and shadow are two sides of the same coin” began to circulate.

"Your power…" As soon as Gu Nan attacked, his own law was inevitably perceived by Sylvia, so she exclaimed with some pleasant surprise.

Sylvia wasn’t very panicked at all at having been caught by Gu Nan. She, whose divine authority was "shadows," couldn’t be killed this easily.

On the contrary, in the tens of thousands of years she’d been alive, this was the first time she met a god who also controlled shadows just like her—since he was able to catch her, he must naturally be a god too.

"Someone from the Light Faction actually dared to come to the Undead Kingdom. You have a lot of guts." Gu Nan smiled noncommittally and casually tossed her aside.

He didn’t care if Sylvia escaped. A mere Tier 6 god was only worth a few hundred Evil Value at most. Such a measly amount couldn’t even enter Gu Nan’s eyes.

And to offend the Ruler of Light and Justice over something like this, the losses far outweighed the gains.

What Gu Nan really cared about was why Sylvia would appear here—from his memories, this Goddess of Shadows shouldn’t have even the slightest connection to the Undead Kingdom.

Although it was an abandoned main plane, its natural characteristic of being littered with undead made this place more suitable for the development of gods belonging to the Darkness Faction.

"I’m just here for a commission." Sylvia didn\'t look scared at all and even transformed her shadows into a chair, calmly sitting down.

After a pause, she added with a playful grin, "Someone requested that I keep an eye on you!"

"Who?" Gu Nan already had a guess in his heart, but this wasn’t a guess he was happy to see, so his tone inevitably became harsh.

Sylvia obviously didn’t like this kind of interrogation. She pouted, and her eyes deliberately looked upwards, pretending not to hear Gu Nan\'s words.

The next instant, a shadow dagger had already stabbed into her stomach, and a large hand clutched on her neck, pressing her entire body to the ground.

"You’d better understand the situation you’re in." Gu Nan\'s grim voice rang out, his eyes coldly staring at her face. "Other people might fear Austin, I don’t."

Austin was the original name of the Ruler of Light and Justice, but because he was too exalted, there weren’t many gods who even knew his real name nowadays.

It is also because of this that Sylvia experienced an unimaginable shock when Gu Nan uttered this name with a cold expression.

Sharp pain continuously traveled over from her stomach, and the power of shadows that originally should’ve been of the same origin as hers kept surging out, wreaking havoc throughout her body and almost driving her own divine power to the side.

Shadows as far as the eye could see appeared again, but this time they came from Gu Nan, and the aura was completely different from before.

If Sylvia\'s shadows were mysterious and quiet, with a hint of the coldness of the night, then Gu Nan\'s shadows could only be described as "wanton and unbridled."

This was a shadow that disregarded all laws, devouring everything around it like a tyrant who slaughtered wantonly.

Sylvia simply couldn’t imagine that it was possible for the power of shadows to also be so overbearing and tyrannical. It was practically… practically the same as the all-oppressive light in her memories.

‘Light and shadow are two sides of the same coin, so this is what it means…’ Inexplicably, this thought emerged in Sylvia\'s mind.

But Gu Nan\'s words still reached her ears, so she hurriedly said, "I-I’ll talk… I’ll talk, okay!?"

Gu Nan made no motion to move, nor did the shadows around her have any intention of stopping, which scared Sylvia into hurriedly telling him everything she knew.

The reason she came here at someone’s “request” to keep an eye on Gu Nan was precisely because she received Lu Xinhuan’s letter asking for help.

Since Qinghe Realm was able to expand its business all the way to the World of Gods, of course it couldn’t just rely on smuggling to conduct business. Zhong Qinghe himself came here a long time ago as well.

Not only did he come, but he also joined a special organization. Sylvia was also a member of this organization, which was why she could receive Lu Xinhuan’s request for help.

According to Sylvia, all the members of this organization were either gods or Star Rulers from the Myriad Heavens Universe. Gu Nan even found many familiar names in the members list.

The Goddess of Dawn, the God of Blood, the God of Luxuriant Blossoms… and even a name that surprised Gu Nan—Zuo Zuo.

These gods had more or less all set foot in the Myriad Heavens Universe before, and Gu Nan finally knew why Zuo Zuo knew about the Tier leveling system.

"The Heaven-God Alliance?" Gu Nan repeated the name of this organization and confirmed that it never existed in his past life’s memory.

In other words, this was an organization that didn’t exist in the game, even though Gu Nan had killed many of the members in this organization in his previous life.

The idea that Gu Nan once considered but didn’t think too deeply about finally came true.

The gods and Star Rulers already had considerably close contact since long ago. They, who didn’t have any conflicts of interest, even formed an organization that spanned two worlds.

After all, reality wasn’t a novel, and two connected worlds didn’t necessarily have to go to war. Gods and Star Rulers also had their own interests and goals. They weren’t bosses just waiting for Gu Nan to raid them.

"How interesting." A slight smile appeared on Gu Nan’s face as he dragged Sylvia up and said, "I want to join the Heaven-God Alliance."

The wound in Sylvia\'s abdomen hadn’t even healed yet. She covered her stomach and said unhappily, "Is this something you can join if you just feel like it?"

Gu Nan glanced at her wound. "You guys will either have one more member or one less member today—your choice."
