Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God
chapter-51

Players were extremely goal-oriented people. They wouldn’t get up early if there weren’t any benefits. As a top player, not only was Gu Nan good at completing missions, but he also excelled in killing many birds with one stone; he could achieve several goals with one action.

For example, ever since he received the “Bai Luoluo’s Blackening” Evil Event, he had been thinking about how to handle it.

Gu Nan already had a set of procedures in his heart for how to reconstruct Bai Luoluo’s three views, and now the preparations were also finished.

When he returned to Star Realm again, 10 days had already passed since he last saw Bai Luoluo.

Gu Nan went to his desk and quickly skimmed over the message Gu Nian sent. A trace of a smile appeared on his lips as he casually replied to Gu Nian.

“Let’s begin.”

……

……

Darkness met with the night. Bai Luoluo was lying alone on a bed inside the Gu family’s mansion. Her entire body was curled up into a ball, and she wrapped the blankets tightly around herself.

The Pure Heart Dao was an extremely powerful and strange cultivation technique.

This technique allowed cultivators to have a firm Heart of Dao and a steady will. It was the most suitable technique for inexperienced youngsters who had yet to see the world.

But once the strongest link breaks, it also becomes the weakest link. Once the Heart of Dao collapsed, it would be extremely difficult for someone cultivating the Pure Heart Dao to return to the right track.

Bai Luoluo was in such a state.

“So Eldest Martial Sister…was actually such a person? She’s been lying to me this entire time……”

“But why did she have to lie to me? I’m not a child. For the sake of her family, even if her methods are a little cruel, it’s still……”

Bai Luoluo wasn’t entirely sweet and naive. The real contraction in her Pure Heart Dao lied in some deeper problems that even her heart was avoiding.

While she was still struggling with these questions, a sudden murderous shout came from outside the house.

“Kill! If Gu Nian doesn’t come out, then kill the entire Gu family!”

“That’s right! That Gu Nian is cruel and ruthless. She killed my entire Wang family back then. Today, I want her to also experience the feeling of having her whole family killed!”

“Brothers, follow me!”

……

……

Bai Luoluo jumped up from the bed. Just because something went wrong with her Heart of Dao didn’t mean that her strength disappeared. When faced with life and death, her survival instinct quickly energized her.

But she still felt indescribably surprised. Ever since she came to Star Realm, the “omnipotence” of Gu Nian and the Gu family had long been deeply ingrained into her mind.

Now that people suddenly slaughtered their way to her door, she couldn’t respond to such an unforeseen event in time.

However, the enemy didn’t give her a chance to respond. Before Bai Luoluo even returned to her senses, the door to her house had already been kicked open, revealing the figure of two burly men with swords.

When the two saw Bai Luoluo, they slashed at her without another word.

“D**n it!” Bai Luoluo’s heart tightened, and she hurriedly dodged.

But the two men relentlessly capitalized on their advantage and slashed at her again. Every strike was aimed at Bai Luoluo’s throat. They didn’t have any intention of leaving any survivors.

Although she studied martial arts since childhood, this was the first time she faced a life and death battle. Bai Luoluo couldn’t help getting nervous, and her movements also began to delay slightly.

But faced with two experienced opponents, this amount of nervousness was fatal.

In less than two moves, a blade managed to strike Bai Luoluo’s shoulder, and her blood instantly flowed out like a river.

‘Run!’ The severe pain made her more flustered. She promptly turned and ran away. In doing so, she made an even more serious mistake—leaving her back faced towards the enemy.

The two burly men exchanged glances and bursted into laughter at the same time. They caught up with Bai Luoluo in a few steps. Without the slightest bit of tender feelings for the fairer sex, they sent several slashes in a row.

“Ahh!” The pain from her back almost made Bai Luoluo cry, but when faced with a life and death situation, there was no time to cry.

Run, run desperately.

She didn’t know how long she ran for, or where she ran to. Bai Luoluo didn’t even have the courage to look back.

Finally, she exhausted all her strength and fell in front of a pile of ruined walls, gasping for breath.

However, a sneering voice rang around her.

“Go on, run. Why did you stop running?”

“Big Brother, wait a minute. This little girl looks pretty nice.”

“What? Are you interested?”

“How can I possibly be interested? She’s just a lowly Gu family whore, I want to scratch up her face and sell her to the west of the city……”

Bai Luoluo’s thoughts shattered into a panicked mess. She desperately tried to struggle but had no more strength left. Her consciousness also gradually dimmed……

……

……

“It’s quite expensive to put on such a play in the center of the city. I hope you don’t let me down.” Gu Nian looked at Bai Luoluo, who had bruises all over her body, and motioned to the doctor beside her to apply medicine. She then turned to look at Gu Nan.

“Anyhow, it can’t be worse than her current situation.” Gu Nan looked indifferent. “Besides, how could you have gotten to this point if you didn’t want to control the girl yourself?”

There were many ways to cultivate the Pure Heart Dao, but Gu Nian chose the “modeling” cultivation method.

In Gu Nan’s view, this naturally looked like she wanted to strengthen her control over Bai Luoluo. Even if Bai Luoluo grew up in the future, she still wouldn’t betray the Gu family—at least not Gu Nian herself.

Gu Nan always assigned the most malicious motives to anyone’s actions.

A green vein bulged out on Gu Nian’s forehead. “The heart of a villain! Why do you think I let you two travel together during ascension?”

“Ah?” Gu Nan stared blankly for a moment, then smiled a little awkwardly.

‘It turns out that the very first person Gu Nian chose to act as a model for Bai Luoluo was me…… But then I was kidnapped to Radiant Tower, so Gu Nian had no choice but to act as the model.’

Thus, Gu Nan gave a light cough. “In that case…… Leave it to me.”

……

……

The next time Bai Luoluo woke up, the first thing she sensed was the nauseating smell of blood, mixed with the stench of sweat, rotten corpses, excrement, and other smells.

She opened her eyes with difficulty and finally understood her current situation.

A messy burial ground……

Bloodstained corpses were scattered everywhere, and her left palm was even pressing on an eyeball that had popped out. Two sections of severed intestines were lying on her stomach—thankfully it wasn’t hers.

If it was before, Bai Luoluo probably would’ve screamed a long time ago. Now, however, she merely held back her nausea with great difficulty and slowly stood up. She moved towards the side with great difficulty.

There was a small river there. Bai Luoluo, who didn’t sense anything wrong with her body, decided to wash herself clean first.

However, when her face was reflected in the river, she finally couldn’t stop herself from screaming.

“Ahhh! Who is this!?”

Bai Luoluo collapsed onto the ground. The person in the river looked very different from her old appearance, but they had only one thing in common—her face had been scratched up by a sharp tool.

Only then did Bai Luoluo feel the scorching pain coming from her face. Dozens of uneven gashes were constantly burning her nerves.

“Why…… Why did this happen……” Bai Luoluo finally couldn’t stop herself from crying bitterly. She punched the ground with both hands, as if denouncing fate.

“A lucky one who survived the chaos of war?” A soft voice came from near her ear. “Did someone ruin your face? Quite pitiful.”

“Why don’t you follow me from now on?”

Bai Luoluo raised her head in amazement and saw a girl in bright yellow brocade clothing standing in front of her.
