GDK 888: Fight me if you dare

The Omphalos merchants were no fools. Although they had no idea who those bandits were, they could tell that Han Shuo must have something to do with it.

The merchants had been waiting for the three Sovereigns to take action. But even after waiting for a long time, the three Sovereigns still seemed to have done nothing. With all their goods stuck outside the Omphalos and their sales taking a nosedive, they had no choice but to gather and initiate contact with the Three Sovereigns.

Tyre, Logue, and Wasir knew that it was Han Hao who had been rampantly looting those merchant caravans outside the Omphalos. The three Sovereigns commanded great forces with influence over every region of the Fringe. They were informed about this significant activity of Han Hao’s soon after he started looting.

However, the three Sovereigns also knew that Han Hao and Han Shuo were closely related. Not wishing to fall out with Han Shuo so soon, they remained silent to see just how long Han Hao could keep it up. But even after such a long time, with Han Hao still showing no sign of stopping anytime soon and with the daily operations in the Omphalos grinding to a halt, the three Sovereigns finally ran out of patience.

With nearly all the merchants of the Omphalos issuing a joint statement to the three Sovereigns, they had no choice but to take action. They responded by telling the merchants not to be anxious and that they will resolve the issue soon.

***Inside the Celestial Pearl of the Omphalos, Han Shuo was meditating inside a secluded gymnasium. He felt as though he had fused with the Omphalos, as though he had wrapped the entire space with his mind.

Ever since stepping into the Skybreak Realm, whenever Han Shuo had free time, he would use it for meditation. Back then, the moment he broke into the Skybreak Realm, he was enlightened with all kinds of profound information, including the true essence of demonic arts and various demonic techniques. By carefully understanding this information, Han Shuo could unleash his energy to their greatest potential.

The further one progressed in demonic arts, the harder it would be to make further progress. It would take a long time to accumulate and condense demonic yuan for progressing to the next level. One who did not possess sufficient talent might even never be able to break through to the next level. Even an extraordinarily gifted cultivator would take hundreds if not thousands of years.

Han Shuo had no idea how long his journey to the next realm will be, or if he will ever reach there. But he knew that he could only reach there one step at a time. All that Han Shuo could do now was to stabilize the new realm state as much as possible and familiarize himself with the new demonic concepts and techniques.

With everything that needed to be instructed, instructed, with his scheme set in motion, all that Han Shuo needed to do now was wait. But Han Shuo wasn’t going to do nothing during that time. He used the free time to cultivate as he always does.

One day, while calmly deciphering a profound demonic idea of the Skybreak Realm, Han Shuo suddenly sensed that an extremely strong life-force was slowly moving towards the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy.

After Han Shuo reached the Skybreak Realm, no living thing could escape from the frighteningly sensitive senses of his consciousness, except for an existence of much greater strength than Han Shuo’s.

With just a pulsation of his consciousness, Han Shuo figured out that the mighty existence approaching was Sovereign Ossora. Back then when they first met in a pavilion at the Omphalos, as Han Shuo had yet to attain Skybreak Realm, he could not clearly detect the energy Ossora concealed. But now, Han Shuo could sense Ossora’s presence from miles away.

Han Shuo opened his eyes and walked out from his secluded gymnasium unhurriedly. He flew to the highest clock tower in the Celestial Pearl and waited for Ossora.

Moments later, Ossora, who also sensed Han Shuo’s aura, appeared before Han Shuo smilingly.

“Tyre, Logue, and Wasir are inviting you to a meeting. Haha, it seems that they are finally going to discuss what's happening outside the Omphalos,” said Ossora most straightforwardly. It was obvious that Ossora had figured out that Han Shuo was behind the rampant looting outside the Omphalos.

Han Shuo nodded and replied, “Hehe, the three of them are really quite patient to have waited so long before looking for me.”

“You need to be careful, Bryan. It’s possible that Tyre, Logue, and Wasir intend to join hands and attack you,” warned Ossora with his brows creased, “They are not known for playing by the rules. If they were to join hands and attack you, you will be in great danger.”

“Don’t worry about it, I can handle it,” replied Han Shuo smilingly. He did not take Ossora’s warning seriously.

Han Shuo was able to easily escape from Salas before he had advanced to the Skybreak Realm. With his strength now, Han Shuo was confident that he could escape from the three Sovereigns with ease. Therefore, he wasn’t worried about it at all.

“Well then, I will show you the way,” said Ossora before leading Han Shuo to the meeting place.

The meeting location that Tyre, Logue, and Wasir selected were not the Omphalos. fighting was strictly prohibited in the Omphalos as it was the trading center of the Fringe. The three Sovereigns would not violate that rule as they were the people who were supposed to enforce it. That was why they had selected an extinguished volcano in the Northwest as the meeting place.
