"It's a god!"

"Run!"

"Our mission is complete, everyone… Ah!"

The Void Cutters from the Myriad Heavens tried to flee at practically the same time the golden light appeared, each person running faster than the next.

They knew all too well that their strategic intent was simply to force out the enemy gods, who would naturally be dealt with by Star Rulers, so what happened afterwards was no longer part of their mission.

It was also due to this kind of thinking that the number of Void Cutters who actually died from this attack wasn’t as high as one would have imagined.

In fact, the powerful Legend Rank enemies who appeared to be numerous in Julie's eyes actually strictly adhered to the principle of "no more than 10 gathered at once" to ensure the God Hunt returned a "profit".

So in reality, only two Void Cutters were killed instantly by Shield God Tarak, while the rest had already fled.

The blond girl opened her eyes in shock and realized she was surrounded by boundless golden light, and the enemies around her had long since dissipated without a trace…

"Miracle! This is the miracle that father and the others talked about!"

Julie burst into tears. She couldn't help kneeling down on one knee and paying her respect with the most perfect salute.

However, at this very moment, the golden light filling the whole sky seemed to be stopped by something, instantly freezing and then quickly vanishing as if it had never appeared in the first place.

"This is…" Julie looked up incredulously, only to see all the golden light collapsing towards a single point.

The golden light seemed to have been devoured entirely in the blink of an eye, and that one black spot also disappeared right as the golden light dissipated.

Julie’s heart suddenly felt empty, as if something had disappeared, almost as if her faith suddenly had no place to go…

This young believer hadn't experienced a collapse of faith yet, or else she would’ve immediately realized that she could no longer mobilize her divine power.

Only after this did a few figures quickly arrive, two men and one woman.

"Seriously, what awful luck! Someone stole our target again! Who the hell is this rude? I only managed to lure this god out after losing a Void Cutter!" An old man with a gloomy aura wrapped entirely in a black robe cursed. freeweb novel.com

According to the unspoken rules in the Myriad Heavens, the Godhead naturally belonged to the person whose subordinates lured out that god.

No matter the circumstances, "kill stealing" was always despised.

"Old Yin, stop complaining." The woman next to him also said angrily, "I also lost a Void Cutter, and three more got injured. Who can I ask to compensate me for this loss?"

The other man beside them didn't lose any Void Cutters, so his mood was slightly better in comparison, and he couldn't help chuckling. "You two… In the past, the loss of a Void Cutter would’ve been enough to make you heartbroken for twenty years, right?"

The other two glared at him, though neither ultimately responded.

Because the man wasn’t wrong. In the past, if weak Star Rulers like them who just entered this realm could recruit even a single Void Cutter, they would be raising the Void Cutter like a precious treasure. How would they dare send Void Cutters to the battlefield?

It was only after they got the Godhead Cultivation Method that they dared to be so extravagant.

"Forget it!" The ghostly old man waved his hand. "Let's hurry up and withdraw, lest we lure the high-ranked gods over."

The other two naturally had no objections, but it was the woman who spoke again after some thought, "Wait, check if the Godhead is still there. I heard from a friend that a ‘Ghost' has been frequenting the battlefield recently and only hunts gods without taking their Godheads…"

Old Yin couldn't help snorting disdainfully. "Such a person actually exists? To just hunt gods without taking their Godheads—is this Ghost some sort of altruist?"

But he didn’t move at all, clearly utterly unconvinced. The man next to him didn't really believe it either, but since his companion had spoken, it didn’t hurt to take a look.

He cut open Tarak's corpse with a wave of his hand, then revealed an incredulous expression.

"The Godhead really exists!"

Old Yin turned his head violently, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets as he stared blankly at the Godhead that shimmered with golden light on the Shield God's corpse.

The woman on the side was equally incredulous, muttering under her breath, "Ghost really exists…"

……

Gu Nan’s figure reformed near the vicinity of the sixteenth spatial jump point, a slightly unfathomable smile on his face.

Shield God Tarak was only a Tier 7 god and was taken by surprise, so of course Tarak died on contact with Gu Nan, unable to resist in any way.

"That’s the third one today. Time to call it a day," Gu Nan looked at his Evil Value and leisurely said to himself.

After days of nonstop hunting, his Evil Value already reached 39,000. The results were even more lucrative than hunting a Tier 9 god.

And the number of gods who died at his hands during this period already exceeded ten, all of whom were low-ranked gods.

In order to ensure he didn't draw attention to himself, Gu Nan set a rule for himself—he would not strike more than three times a day. As long as his kills weren’t too frequent, they wouldn’t be noticed for the time being.

As for leaving behind the Godhead, that was also a deliberate decision on Gu Nan's part.

Compared to a “kill steal", it was always easier for a "pleasant surprise" to remain hidden and not spread too quickly.

Star Rulers weren’t stupid. Who knows whether “Ghost” will still strike again once everyone knows about him? Even if they bet on that luck, they still wouldn’t wantonly publicize the existence of “Ghost”.

……

After killing the Shield God, Gu Nan returned to Heavenly Province World.

If Fairhaven was the frontline command center for the World of Gods, then Heavenly Province World would undoubtedly hold a similar position for the Myriad Heavens.

Although Heavenly Province World wasn't too large, a considerable number of powerful people were already gathered here from the start, and its location was also quite crucial, so this plane was undoubtedly favored by Star Rulers.

So much so that Star Rulers had created places of mutual information and item exchange in Heavenly Province World.

Gu Nan's figure slowly appeared, walking into a dimly lit underground bar. He didn’t show his face and was wrapped in a pitch-black cloak, making his identity impossible to discern.

A bartender came forward and was about to greet Gu Nan and ask for an order, but after seeing this attire, his expression suddenly changed, and he respectfully said, "Lord Black Robe, are you going 'downstairs' this time as well?"

"Yeah, open the door," Gu Nan nodded and replied indifferently.

The bartender turned around in response and led Gu Nan to a wall. He reached out and gave it a gentle push, and the wall actually flipped over violently along with the ground, sending him and Gu Nan to the other side.

On this side, there happened to be a woman already in front of them. When she saw the visitor behind her, she couldn't help greeting with a smile, "Black Robe? It's been a long time since you've been here."

Gu Nan glanced at her. This person was a weak Star Ruler he met previously, so he smiled and replied, "Just taking a look."

There were several similar Star Ruler gathering places in this plane, and Gu Nan was rotating through them.

Gu Nan's attitude was very cold, but the woman didn't mind and continued, "Someone's auctioning off a Tier 7 Godhead today, are you interested?"

"Selling even a Tier 7 Godhead? They must be very rich already!" Gu Nan didn't answer her directly and casually remarked.

"Eh, he just picked it up. It’s not like he can use it anytime soon." The woman shrugged. "What a lucky fellow! The legend of the Ghost of the battlefield is actually true… Even the God of Giantwood lost his life at Ghost’s hands."

Gu Nan's footsteps stilled, his gaze turning serious.

He didn’t kill the God of Giantwood.
