String instruments started strumming.

A catchy rhythmic folk song began to play in everyone’s ears, as if scratching at the itchiest part of a person’s psyche, encouraging them to dance along with it.

Gu Qing Shan’s hands and feet had already started to shake uncontrollably with the music.

The gentle rhythmic music suddenly stopped.

Followed by a heavy bass drop.

I can’t control it anymore!

Gu Qing Shan suddenly stood up and walked forward.

——onto the ceremonial balcony.

Gu Qing Shan walked in-between ‘Laura’ and Ye Fei Li.

As a guard, his sudden interruption of the ceremony caused everyone’s gaze to fall onto him.

All the guests at the venue, the people of the 900 million World Layers who were watching the live broadcast, as well as the Abyssal Demon Dragon who was hiding just a bit further away.

Everyone had the exact same question in their minds:

What is this guard trying to do?

‘Laura’ noticed that something wasn’t right and understood what was going on after just a split second of thought.

Oh no.

Gongzi’s Dance is about to trigger.

Shannu’s heart sank, unsure of what to do.

Meanwhile, Gu Qing Shan was snapping his fingers rhythmically while cupping his hand on his ear as if he was listening to something.

——-he was listening to another person’s voice.

The voice of the old man who taught him the Living Being Sacrificial Dance, the strongest human Combatant of the Bygone Era.

[Hurry up and get ready, the group dance is about to begin]

The old man’s solemn voice resounded in Gu Qing Shan’s ear.

Gu Qing Shan was madly shouting in his mind: “Why did it have to happen at this crucial moment in time!? Couldn’t you have at least warned me first!?”

The old man replied: [Drop all of your ridiculous thoughts, I’ll spell it out so that you can understand, none of these superfluous matters in front of you matter as much as the Living Being Sacrificial Dance!]

“But if I dance here, it’ll cause a lot of unnecessary casualties!” Gu Qing Shan refuted.

[It will not——- hurry, this is your first time with this dance so you only need two other people, quickly pick out someone or it’ll be a lot more troublesome when you miss this timing] the old man urged him.

Gu Qing Shan could hear the urgency in his voice.

In reality, Gu Qing Shan also understood that he couldn’t offend this Dance in any way.

If even the strongest human Combatant of the Bygone Era is in so much of a hurry, then I definitely can’t stall it any longer.

“Two? How do I pick them?” Gu Qing Shan hurriedly asked.

[Choose with your inner sight! You fool!]

“Understood!”

Gu Qing Shan unhesitantly focused his inner sight on Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li.

It couldn’t be helped, the only people he could rely on now was them.

Following his choice, the bald old man loudly blew a whistle: [Fuu——whish!]

It seemed like it was some sort of signal.

Gu Qing Shan noticed that his armor completely disappeared.

He was now wearing a luxurious black coat with gold lining, a white mask with three empty black spots that formed a sad expression.

Meanwhile, Ye Fei Li and Zhang Ying Hao had changed to black coats with red inlays, also wearing white masks that instead depicted bright smiles.

Costume change?

Gu Qing Shan gasped.

Why does it feel like some sort of unprecedented ritual?

——damn it, is there really a need to have this solemn atmosphere of ritual for this Dance!

But wait, does that mean something special will occur after this?

On the other side, Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li were also not idle.

“Fei Li, what’s going on? Is this your ability?”

Zhang Ying Hao hurriedly asked in a low shouting voice.

As he said so, he found that he couldn’t help himself moving his feet together with Gu Qing Shan.

Ye Fei Li was also confused: “It’s not related to me; I was going to ask you”

Saying so, he started to slap his butt with his hands.

One time.

Another time.

Then once again.

Seeing each other’s movements, the two of them were both shocked.

They knew very well that the other party wouldn’t make such movements.

Zhang Ying Hao instinctively wanted to pull his gun——- right now, even his mental fortitude as an experienced hitman couldn’t help him stay calm.

Having no other choice, Gu Qing Shan sent his voice to the two of them: “This Dance is to save my life, the two of you have to perform this dance with me for me to survive”

“WHAT!?”

Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li both shouted.

They thought it was just some sort of strange power, but it was actually related to Gu Qing Shan’s life and death.

At this point, the sound of music also sounded by their ears.

Boom boom boom! Boom cha chak!

Boom boom boom! Boom cha chak!

The old man suddenly looked up to the sky and howled: [Uuu———–waaaaaaah—–]

Which was followed by an intense catchy sound of electronic music.

The intense rhythm made it so that they couldn’t help but mosh their head up and down with the music.

Their hair began to stand straight up.

“What exactly is going on?”

Zhang Ying Hao continued moshing as he asked with a solemn tone of voice.

“Long story short, this Dance can help dispel a kind of evil power in my body”

Half-way through his sentence, he raised both hands and started to wiggle it like a bird small flapping its wings.

Ye Fei Li followed suit.

Zhang Ying Hao also did the same.

Gu Qing Shan continued: “Right now, I need two dance partners in order to finish the ritual to dispel the evil power”

He added: “Don’t worry, for this performance, you two won’t have to dance on your own——- your power is too weak, the Laws of the Mystics will control your bodies and perform the correct dance steps”

Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li exchanged glances as they did the bird flapping hands.

——-knowing Gu Qing Shan, he wouldn’t lie about such a serious matter.

Then there’s nothing else to be said.

Just to save Gu Qing Shan’s life, we would have to perform this Dance no matter what.

Fortunately, we’re wearing masks right now.

This way, at least no one would recognize our real faces.

——the entire 900 million World Layers is currently watching.

If not, whenever we go out from now on, even before any attacks are exchanged, just having a look at our faces would make the other party laugh themselves to death.

Of course, this could be considered a kind of superiority, but that’s not our real power.

“I have no issues,” Zhang Ying Hao said.

“Me too” Ye Fei Li replied.

Gu Qing Shan immediately said: “Then we’re going to really begin—– Shannu, quickly announce that this is the dance of deputation, something to help everyone enjoy themselves”

“Ah, yes” Shannu hurriedly replied.

She then turned to all the guests as well as the viewers of the 900 million World Layers and declared: “Now, let us enjoy the dance of deputation of our Bramble Bird race!”

Thunderous cheers.

——so, it was the Bramble Bird dance of deputation.

The guests all loudly cheered, but they silently sighed in their minds.

They even have a unique dance for the appointment of a nobility.

Too much etiquette!

In the sky, the Divinities were whispering to one another.

「 Let’s observe first 」

The leader Divinity said.

In a hidden place of the palace, Laura was helplessly praying.

She was solemnly repenting:

“Father, forgive me, I’ve ruined the reputation of us Bramble Birds…”

On the ceremonial platform, ‘Laura’ also ran away.

Only the three dancing men were left on the platform.

All of a sudden, including her, everyone heard intense electronic music resounding by their ears.

Gu Qing Shan silently muttered in his mind: “Let’s begin”

The old man shouted: [Three, two, one, let’s all dance together!]

The overwhelming and touching shockwave spreads all over the venue.

Gu Qing Shan’s trio began to move their bodies to the rhythm of the music.

Their movements were fluid and swift, perfectly coordinated, slowly creating various afterimages.

Each afterimage went to their own spot on the platform and also participated in the Dance.

More and more afterimages were manifesting.

The bald old man counted them and shouted again: [They are my energy shadows, specifically here to help you finish the Sacrificial Dance——– keep dancing, a hard one is coming up!]

Hearing that, the three of them simultaneously did a series of tap dancing, then tilted their body backward a certain degree.

Followed by—–

Wiggle their waists!

Round and round and round!

A specialized belly dance!

The three of them were sweating like crazy.

And finally, the final shadow appeared.

A total of 9 shadows.

Together with Gu Qing Shan’s trio.

There were a total of 12 dancers.

It had truly turned into a group dance.

Jump and clap!

Jump and clap!

The music began to grow mad.

The dance steps were even madder.

The 12 dancers’ movements were full of strength, while also perfectly coordinated to give off a sense of complete unity.

After dancing for a bit more.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly reached both hands outward, opened his palms, and waved towards the crowd.

On his sides, Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li also waved their waves.

The 9 shadows also waved.

[Finally, this moment has come]

The bald old man emotionally spoke, then suddenly roared:

[Shaman of the Living Being Sacrificial Dance, in the time of the Apocalypse over 100 million years later, I have nothing to offer but this supreme holy and noble Sacrificial Dance, I kneel at your feet, and implore you——-]

[Des———cend——–]

He continued his call like mad, not stopping for even a second to catch his breath.

And then.

A miracle occurred.

Besides the 12 dancers, the entire venue went silent.

Everyone fell into an utter blankness state of mind.

The guests at the venue, the viewers of the 900 million World Layers, everyone who witnessed this Dance, or happened to hear the music of the Dance, all fell into a state of blankness.

The viewer closest to Gu Qing Shan in the stands—— the emperor of a certain interstellar empire, closed his eyes and blankly muttered:

“I want to form a relationship with the Bramble Bird Kingdom, this way, my Empire would last forevermore”

A Lord-class Combatant next to him also opened his mouth: “Bless me! I must convince the official of the Bramble Bird Kingdom this time to allow me to choose a weapon from the Bramble Bird’s vault”

The next person to speak up was a mature noble lady with graceful bearing:

“I want to become acquainted with Laura, flatter her as much as I could and invite her to become a guest at my world, that way, I would have a chance to have her marry my son——– regardless of the method used”

Everyone was openly stating their desires one by one.
