Chapter 829: Dirty thoughts (2/2)
“Hell yeah, City of Shadows or Hushveil, we ain’t afraid of them!” Han Huo immediately agreed. He shouted, “That dotard called Walla-ss is courting death. We might as well go there and kill them all, then Father will be the City Lord of the City of Shadows!”
After hearing Han Hao and Han Huo’s words, the other little fellas immediately voiced their agreement. It appeared that after all these years on Elysium, they have become more and more combative.
Han Shuo forced a smile and shook his head. He explained, “That won’t work. Although Wallace is wary of me, I’m still good friends with other members of the Sainte Family. I cannot betray them. Also, Little Water and Little Wood won’t be able to live in the Darkness Dominion because of the energy they cultivate.” After taking a short pause, Han Shuo put on a faint smile and continued, “But most importantly, I feel that the City of Shadows is just a little too small. Our House of Han needs a much bigger space to grow. Hehe, the Fringe is much bigger than the City of Shadows and Ethereal City. It is also filled with powerful experts. That is the place where the House of Han should be!”
The Five Elite Zombies smiled and nodded after listening to Han Shuo’s explanation while Han Hao remained silent but his eyes started glinting.
“Okay!” Han Hao nodded.
“Alright, now that the five of you are finally reunited, go underground and practice the Penta-Elemental Undead Formation!” Han Shuo instructed the Five Elite Zombies. The Penta-Elemental Undead Formation could exponentially increase the firepower of the Five Elite Zombies. The power unleashed by the Formation will also get stronger as their strengths improved. The Five had obtained a significant improvement in strengths during the last fifty years. Han Shuo believed that the current Penta-Elemental Undead Formation should have no problem killing a highgod.
…..
Ten days went by. While Han Shuo was cultivating, through his demon general, he suddenly discovered that Baum was receiving a highgod.
With one thought, Han Shuo summoned Little Skeleton who was training the Five Elite Zombies deep underground. When Han Hao surfaced and entered the gymnasium, Han Shuo immediately started describing to him the appearance of the highgod.
“He is a henchman of Polo. He must be there for McKinley's divine body!” said Little Skeleton confidently after hearing a description of the person.
Han Shuo was elated. He smilingly exclaimed, “Finally!” before he gathered all his attention and carefully monitored the activities in the City Lord’s manor.
As soon as the person stepped into the manor, he was summoned to meet in Baum’s secret chamber. The secret chamber had layers upon layers of defensive boundaries, among which was space edict boundaries that were beyond miraculous. It would be impossible to sneak inside without being detected even with a demon general refined from a highgod soul.
However, it doesn’t worry Han Shuo for he knew that the highgod will be carrying McKinley’s divine body. The highgod will eventually exit the secret chamber and leave the manor house. If he carried McKinley’s divine body, he could follow the highgod using the demon general.
After observing for a moment, through the demon general, Han Shuo sensed an intense space-time fluctuation coming from the secret chamber. Evidently, Baum had ripped apart space-time in the secret chamber, perhaps withdrawing McKinley’s divine body from a space-time fissure.
Han Shuo had searched the manor house using his demon generals many times before but had discovered no sign of McKinley’s divine body. After thinking about it, Han Shuo guessed that Baum might have hidden the divine body in a space-time fissure in another dimension. As a cultivator of the edict of space, this would be the most secure way of storing things.
And the fact proved that Han Shuo’s guess was spot on. A moment later, the space-time fluctuation gradually died down. And around ten minutes later, that highgod henchman of Polo’s came out with a massive bag. He quietly left the house through the backdoor.
Baum, behind the windows of the highest floor of the highest building, stood silently as he watched the person leave his manor. From his face, it appeared as though he was somewhat worried.
“He will exit the City right away. There are energy towers of Baum’s everywhere. We cannot take the body directly. Let’s exit the City as well,” Han Shuo said to Little Skeleton.
“Father, we cannot kill that person. If he is dead, Polo will know that I did it. Also, there is honour among godhunters. Besides, when we join the Fringe in the future, Polo will be a useful asset to have,” said Little Skeleton as he looked at Han Shuo.
Han Shuo was amazed. He chuckled and said, “Haha, look at you, so mature in thinking. Of all my kids, you are the only one that can let me sleep peacefully at night!”
Those words of Han Hao proved that he was a prudent person. It seemed that it wasn’t by luck that Little Skeleton became so successful in the world of godhunting over in the Death Dominion. It was a son like him that could make Han Shuo feel at ease. He thought that in the future, he should delegate some important tasks to Little Skeleton.
“Don’t worry, Father, I will make sure to teach them well!” Little Skeleton seemed somewhat embarrassed after receiving praise from Han Shuo. He made a somewhat awkward faint smile. It was much like the smile that Han Shuo wore in the usual days.
