GDK 634: I have the capability to be insolent!

“How… how dare you talk about me like that!” Kironlo was quivering to his knees. His aged face was ashen. He pointed and roared at Han Shuo like a crazed ghoul.

The matter that Han Shuo brought up was Kironlo’s sore point. No one ever dared to speak of it in front of him because of his identity. Given Kironlo’s temperament, it would be a wonder if he didn’t fly into a fit rage after Han Shuo spoke of the incident so harshly in front of all the cardinals.

But, of course, Han Shuo wasn’t afraid of him.

“Ahahah, what’s wrong? Do you feel humiliated? Serves you right!” Han Shuo sneered and turned a blind eye to Kironlo’s bellow of rage. He carried on with his cutting remarks, “If it wasn’t for that disastrous mistake you made then, the Church wouldn’t have to operate in the dark for all those hundreds of years, and most certainly wouldn’t have become a target of scorn, detested by everyone on the continent. With the mental capacity that you have, you are only going to bring the Church even more ruins by staying. If I were you, I would surely be too embarrassed to see anyone or even show my face in the public.”

“You, you…“ Kironlo pointed at Han Shuo. He was so enraged by those words that he couldn’t even form a sentence.

Han Shuo took a glance at the Calamity Pope and saw that he had no intention of stopping him. Han Shuo deduced that the Pope wanted him to take this opportunity to disgrace Kironlo. This boldened Han Shuo even further, “I don’t like people pointing their fingers at me. Try pointing at me again. I dare you,”

“Young man, you are too insolent!” Kironlo was flustered and exasperated. But as he still held misgivings towards Han Shuo, he restrained himself as best he could from attacking Han Shuo.

Han Shuo squinted his eyes and let out a cold groan before he whooshed towards Kironlo. The Domain of Divinity of the avatar of destruction inside his body suddenly unfolded. In an instant, the entire Cardinals’ Hall turned into a hair-raising region where only a disordered edict of destruction was left. Elements that were normally present everywhere were suddenly all gone.

The cardinals of the Calamity Church who cultivated in all kinds of elemental energies suddenly found themselves in a region devoid of the energies they were most familiar with. All of them started to panic as they stared at Han Shuo standing at the center with aghast.

All they saw was Han Shuo suddenly standing before Kironlo. Then, one of his big hands grabbed Kironlo’s neck and lifted him high in the air. He wore a frigid cold face as he stared at Kironlo struggling to free himself.

Han Shuo’s straightforward and blunt conduct of immediately attacking once someone showed noncompliance to him caused the crowd’s hearts to shiver.

Kironlo, whose face was red through and through, looked no different from a clown. His frail legs as thin as bamboo were kicking and his two hands were desperately beating Han Shuo’s hand. He tried all he could to free himself from this humiliating and demeaning posture, but his actions were futile.

As a mere basegod, once Han Shuo unfolded his Domain of Divinity, Kironlo would have absolutely no way of attacking Han Shuo using elemental energy.

After losing access to the elemental energy of death that he had been relying upon for survival, all the strength left in him was the raw power of his frail physical body. Against Han Shuo’s physical body which was in the Nine Changes realm, Kironlo was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. He had exerted all his energy and yet was unable to free himself from Han Shuo who was binding him with just one hand. Suspended in midair, Kironlo found it more and more strenuous to breathe. His face reddened and looked as though it was smeared with blood.

Kironlo, this grand cardinal of the Calamity Church had been revered by most for hundreds of years. He was struggling like a bird on a leash without any power to resist. A few of those cardinals who had good relations with Kironlo had intended to assist him, but were now frozen in terror. Every last one of them had flickering eyes that could not turn away from the cruel scene. They timidly lowered their heads as they didn’t have to courage to look at Kironlo in the face while he slowly wilted away, as though he might die from suffocation at any moment.

The bizarre atmosphere devoid of any elemental energy to use all so suddenly left those in the room in panic. They gaped at Han Shuo at the center, who was callously grabbing Kironlo by the neck, like fools. Their lips were dry and their hands were cold. They thought they would lose their feeble lives at any moment.

“I have the capability to be insolent!” Han Shuo said to Kironlo arrogantly as he stared at him. This was also a warning to the rest of the cardinals in the hall, telling them that they had better behave themselves.

Many of the high-level members of the Calamity Church had horrified expressions on their faces and were at a complete loss. They were afraid that Han Shuo would take his anger out on them too. Thoughts rushed through their minds on how best to draw a clear dividing line between themselves and Kironlo.

The plump Pope meanwhile appeared rather unperturbed although his heart was pounding. The Pope was unlike Kironlo in that he wasn’t as arrogant. From the rumors that Han Shuo had finished off the Light Pope along with several experts and the fact that he laid waste to several hundred thousand orc warriors, the Calamity Pope had a rough idea of Han Shuo’s power.

However, even in that case, the Pope was rather shocked to see Han Shuo restrain Kironlo so starkly, allowing him not the slightest ability to resist. If Han Shuo could do this so effortlessly, this also meant that Han Shuo could finish him off just as easily. This fact left him very uneasy but he did not reveal it.

The fat man saw Kironlo’s face getting redder and redder and figured he might stop breathing at any moment. Seeing that he had nearly accomplished his goal, he finally voiced out to mediate the situation,
