Han Lang and Feng Wanzhou found an inn to stay in. In the Soul Hunter City, almost all of the houses had rooms that could be rented out. The place that Feng Wanzhou had chosen was a merchant house. There were a few rooms on the top floor of the merchant house. Even though the facilities were simple, it was at least clean and tidy.
Feng Wanzhou was evidently familiar with the fat boss of this shop. The moment the fat boss saw Feng Wanzhou, he was extremely respectful. Very quickly, the fat boss closed the shop and hid in a room with Feng Wanzhou. It was unknown what they were discussing.
"Did you see the way the people on the streets looked at us today? It's really strange. "Jianjia said.
Han Lang naturally realized that instead of saying that the people in the city hated Feng Wanzhou, it would be more accurate to say that they were afraid of him. Due to some special reason, they did not dare to acknowledge him or talk to him.
Han Lang had already guessed in his heart that Feng Wanzhou must have wanted to take revenge on that person. That person had a very high status and everyone was afraid that he would settle the score later on. Therefore, they intentionally kept their distance from Feng Wanzhou.
"Since we are already here, let's just take things as they come." Han Lang said.
Luo Ying said, "I think so too. Old Master Feng is actually quite powerful. I reckon that his cultivation base is at least at the pinnacle of 7-star. In this Soul Hunter City, I have yet to see an existence with a higher cultivation base than Old Master Feng."
Han Lang pursed his lips. Many a time, a high cultivation base wasn't the best in a battle. If everyone in this city were to become enemies with Feng Wanzhou, things would truly be troublesome.
"You guys stay here. I'm going to take a walk on the streets." Han Lang said to Luo Ying and Jianjia.
"I'll go with you."
The two young ladies jumped out together. It was easy for people to develop feelings when they had no choice but to rely on each other. These few days, the two of them had unknowingly treated Han Lang as their support. As long as Han Lang was by their side, they would feel at ease. If Han Lang wasn't around, they would feel very disappointed.
"Don't be silly. Did you guys see any women on the streets? Don't think that these fellows won't have any ill intentions just because you guys are wearing makeup. In places without women, young and handsome men are equally dangerous. Be obedient and stay here. "
When Han Lang spoke, he was like a big brother next door. Even though he was clearly rejecting them, it was easy for Jianjia and Luo Ying to accept it.
Han Lang walked to the streets alone. This was a very small city, and almost instantly, everyone knew who Han Lang was. He had come with Feng Wanzhou.
So, when Han Lang was about to walk into a bar, the bar suddenly closed. When he wanted to go to the restaurant to ask for information, the lights in the restaurant suddenly went out.
Han Lang could only smile bitterly. It seemed like the people of Soul Hunter City were treating him like a dreadful monster.
Han Lang came to the vicinity of the fortress in the city and saw that the fortress was brightly lit and heavily guarded. There was a stone tablet at the entrance with the words "Soul Hunter Guild" written on it.
Based on experience, most guilds were loose industry organizations, and the Soul Hunter Guild was more like an army, isolating themselves from the many Soul Hunters on the streets.
Han Lang shook his head and went back the way he came.
It was not that Han Lang was afraid of anyone. First of all, Han Lang himself was a wargod level expert, and he had many tricks up his sleeves. Second, he had recently become a little obsessed with the demonic path, and he had completely forgotten how to write the word "afraid". Han Lang, who used demonic attacks, was ferocious. Only those who had truly fought with him could understand his ferocity.
It was just that Han Lang wanted to leave the Honeycomb World and return to the normal universe, and he still did not know how to open and close the so-called node. This was the main reason why he was worried.
After all, he could not build another space tunnel and then destroy it on purpose. If that happened, Han Lang would be thrown to another world, and he might even be further away from home.
Suddenly ~
Just when Han Lang was at his wits end, a hand stretched out from a gloomy alley on the right side of the street. It was a skinny and pale hand, with nails longer than fingers, and it was very creepy.
This creepy hand slightly bent towards Han Lang, as if it wanted Han Lang to go over. The owner of this hand was hidden in the dark alley.
.....
The current leader of the Soul Hunter Guild, Soul King Li Xiang, was actually very ambitious.
He wanted to change the status quo of the guild, which was loose in the past, and gather all the Soul Hunters together to work towards a single direction.
Therefore, after he took office, he had been working hard, recruiting troops, and controlling the various nodes. Until today, he had used a special method to seal all the nodes connecting the Honeycomb World to the outside world.
Of course, Li Xiang did not gather the strength of all the Soul Hunters for the sake of unity, but to make use of these people to achieve his unspeakable goal.
At this moment, the skinny and sunken eyed Li Xiang was hiding in the study, cursing non-stop.
"This old thing is not dead? He is back! "Li Xiang said sinisterly.
Beside him, a middle-aged man stood with his hands down. He was slightly plump and had a pale complexion, and he always had a smile on his face. This was Li Xiang's majordomo, Cen Deng.
Cen Deng said, "Feng Wanzhou is a Soul King of the older generation after all. He's an all-powerful figure in the Hive, so he won't die as easily as we thought. However, even though Feng Wanzhou didn't die, his sons didn't return with him. I'm sure they're already dead. Even though our plan didn't succeed completely, we've still managed to break Feng Wanzhou's wings."
Li Xiang said, "What do we do next? Back then, I told Feng Wanzhou that he could find a top-notch Soul Beast there. He trusted me and went, even bringing his sons with him. "
"In the end, when we arrived at that place, it turned out to be a terrifying Soul Devouring Beast. In the end, we did not manage to catch the Soul Devouring Beast, and his sons died. If I were Feng Wanzhou, what would I think if I encountered such an encounter?"
Cen Deng said calmly, "I would hate Your Majesty to death."
Li Xiang slammed the table and said, "Isn't that so? Therefore, the biggest mistake in this matter is that I did not send people to follow and kill Feng Wanzhou as well. This allowed him to return alive from the Soul Devouring Beast!"
Cen Deng said disapprovingly, "Your Majesty, I feel that it is useless to complain about the past. The most important thing is to grasp the present. It is already a fact that Feng Wanzhou is not dead. There is no use complaining. Your Majesty should take the initiative to meet him and see if you can dispel his doubts."
Li Xiang waved his hand and said, "I have followed Old Man Feng for many years. I know him very well. Once he harbors a grudge against someone, he will not rest until he achieves his goal. It is impossible to dispel his doubts."
Cen Deng said, "Even if it is impossible, we have to put on a show. Other than that, Your Majesty should also invite him into the expedition team and tempt him with the Divine King's treasure. As long as Feng Wanzhou is willing to join the expedition team with Your Majesty, we will naturally be able to kill him without anyone knowing once we leave this city. If we make a move in the city, we will become the subject of gossip. Now that the soul hunters have lost contact with the outside world due to the sealing of the spatial nodes, they are already very dissatisfied with Your Majesty. This is a mistake that cannot be made.
"In any case, no matter how strong Feng Wanzhou is, it is just a small matter. What is more important to us is the Divine King's treasure. Killing Feng Wanzhou can only be done under the premise that we don't disrupt the expedition plan."
Li Xiang frowned and pondered for a long time. Cen Deng was right. The expedition team had already been established, and there was no choice but to fire the arrow. As for Feng Wanzhou, it was not a big deal even if he were to temporarily tolerate him. As long as the Divine King's treasure was in his hands, by then …
Suddenly ~
One of Cen Deng's subordinates walked in and whispered into his ears. Cen Deng was stunned. He quickly went to the window and looked outside.
"What's going on?" Li Xiang asked.
"The scanner has discovered a top-tier Divine Beast in the city," Cen Deng said.
Li Xiang was stunned. There was fear on his face as he said, "Feng Wanzhou actually brought a top-tier Soul Beast into the city this time?"
Cen Deng said, "It's not Feng Wanzhou. It's this young man. He has a top-tier Soul Beast with him."
Li Xiang hurried to the window and looked outside. He just happened to see Han Lang strolling around the periphery of the castle. When he realized that the castle was heavily guarded, Han Lang shook his head and turned to leave.
