While Han Shuo was teaching Bollands a lesson, Sabakas and the rest rushed over upon hearing the news.
"Brian, are you alright?" Fanny looked tenderly at Han Shuo and was the first to ask.
Han Shuo shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Emily and Phoebe were also looking at Han Shuo with sparkling eyes. To Emily and Phoebe, the person whom they had set their sights on displaying his invincible might was even happier than them being in the limelight. This was a woman's deep-rooted nature.
"Kid, you did well!" Even Firenze praised Han Shuo. However, he immediately added, "No matter how powerful you are, if you dare to bully my daughter, I will never let you off."
"Father, what are you talking about? Brian wouldn't dare to bully me! Ha, I'm still his teacher. Even if he's powerful now, he's still my student. "After a few days, Fanny was obviously no longer reserved and appeared to be much more cheerful and lively.
Seeing that Fanny revealed a smile when she saw Han Shuo, Firenze understood that Fanny's feelings for Han Shuo were indeed very deep. Seeing his daughter's sincere joy, Firenze didn't want to dampen her spirits. He laughed dryly and didn't continue to say anything.
"Brian, I didn't expect your strength to be so terrifying. It seems that you didn't use your full strength during the previous sparring session. Kid, are you doing this because you think that I'm not worth your full strength? "Sacred swordmaster Karel pulled a long face and said with some displeasure.
With a bitter smile, Han Shuo immediately explained, "Mister Karel, you've misunderstood. Previously, I was only able to injure Blount because I had used other powers. My own strength is far inferior to Blount's. You've also seen that layer of blood cloud that shrouded the sky was the power I relied on.
Now that the power within that layer of blood cloud was completely released by me, I've been beaten back to my original form. Last time, it wasn't that I held back, but that I really wasn't that powerful. Please don't misunderstand. "
"So that's how it is. You can actually use the chaotic power within the blood cloud. This martial technique of yours is indeed very miraculous." Han Shuo said in astonishment. Just now, he was also pretending to be angry. In fact, he had faintly guessed in his heart and only wanted Han Shuo to personally confirm. that.
Bollands had already stood up and was staring blankly at everyone's baffling conversation, not knowing what had happened.
Seeing that Bollands had a puzzled expression, Lawrence took the initiative to walk towards him. With a smile, he described Han Shuo's power to Bollands. Lawrence was ineffably excited as he described, while Bollands was incomparably shocked as he listened. He stared blankly at Han Shuo, feeling as if he was getting to know Han Shuo all over again. This wasn't the first time he had such a feeling.
Only an expert of Bollands' realm would understand how frightening sacred knight Blount and earth sacred magus Dempus were. From Lawrence's description of how Han Shuo made the two sacred rank experts dodge one after another wherever he passed. In the end, Blount was even injured by Han Shuo and had to flee far away. This had a huge impact on Bollands.
However, after the shock, Bollands' heart was filled with excitement. To Bollands, the more powerful Han Shuo was, the more advantageous it would be for him. This also meant that Han Shuo's martial technique truly possessed an incomparably miraculous power. Bollands, who was currently practicing the martial technique that Han Shuo had imparted to him, would naturally be filled with anticipation for this martial technique.
"Everyone, at this moment, the battle in the northern city district has yet to end. I think everyone should continue with their own matters." Han Shuo smiled as he spoke to the group of people who were chattering incessantly about his situation.
Due to Han Shuo's previous performance being a little too exaggerated, in addition to the fact that the situation in the northern city district had already been settled, when Sabakas said that Han Shuo had returned to the castle, this group of people immediately swarmed over, wanting to figure out what was going on. The curiosity in their hearts was extremely great. Each and every one of them looked at Han Shuo with a slightly more peculiar gaze. Even Sabakas and Karel were much more amiable when they spoke to Han Shuo. This meant that they had acknowledged Han Shuo's strength.
After hearing Han Shuo's words, Firenze was the first to lightly snort and said, "I'm only accompanying my daughter to take a look. This old man still has to command those idiots in battle. I won't be accompanying you."
After saying that, Firenze straightforwardly turned around and left.
"Lawrence, the situation in the northern city district has already been settled. It just so happens that I need to use this period of time to cultivate. However, there's something I want to tell you." Han Shuo looked at Lawrence with a serious expression and said in a deep voice.
Currently, Lawrence found Han Shuo pleasing to the eye no matter how he looked at him. He also understood that the reason he was able to stabilize the situation in Ossen City and obtain the upper hand in the all-out battle was definitely due to Han Shuo. Therefore, when he heard that Han Shuo had something to say, Lawrence immediately smiled in a very cooperative manner and said, "Hey, if there's anything you want to say, just say it. You know that there's no need to be too polite between us."
After hearing Lawrence's words, Han Shuo felt rather comfortable in his heart. After shooting a glance at Fanny, Amyes and the rest, Han Shuo said in a deep voice, "I want to discuss this matter with you and the two Saints in private!"
"Alright, let's get busy with our own matters. Everyone, let's go." One of the three heavyweights of Dark Mantle, Amyes, said with an elegant smile and was the first to leave.
As one of the three heavyweights of Dark Mantle, with Amyes taking the lead to leave, the people who were originally still there also left one by one with doubts. Even Emily and the other two also left under Han Shuo's signal.
In the blink of an eye, those important people who were originally in the castle because of curiosity all left under Amyes's signal. Only Han Shuo, Lawrence, space sacred magus Sabakas and sacred swordmaster Karel remained in the clock tower.
When those people were very far away from the clock tower, Lawrence looked at Han Shuo with some astonishment and asked, "Brian, what's the matter?"
Space sacred magus Sabakas waved his hand and set up a spatial boundary, enveloping the area around the clock tower to prevent the conversation here from leaking out. He already faintly understood what Han Shuo wanted to discuss with Lawrence.
"Now that Ashburn and First Prince Charles in Ossen City have already lost, if nothing unexpected happens, you will definitely be able to become the new King of Lancelot Empire. Previously, His Majesty and I had a secret discussion. You have always been curious about what His Majesty said to me. I feel that I can tell you now." Han Shuo looked at Lawrence seriously and said in a deep voice.
"Oh?" Lawrence's curiosity was suddenly piqued. His eyes glistened as he looked at Han Shuo and asked, "Brian, what exactly did my royal father talk to you about? Why did His Majesty begin to fully support me the moment you walked out of the palace? "
Glancing at space sacred magus Sabakas, Han Shuo smiled and said, "Mister Sabakas, I think you should know about this matter, right?"
Sabakas nodded with a smile and said gently, "That's right, I do know about this matter."
When Lawrence's puzzled gaze turned towards him, Sabakas explained, "The old astrologer, Madame Grace, predicted that whichever prince Brian helped would be able to become the new King of Lancelot Empire and bring new prosperity to the empire.
Hehe, it is only natural that you would become the lucky one because of your good relationship with Brian. Madam Grace has been making predictions for the Lancelot Empire for so many years and has never disappointed His Majesty. Therefore, His Majesty believes that you will become the new emperor and bring new prosperity to the Empire. That is why he is supporting you with all his might. "
When Lawrence heard Sabakas' explanation, he looked at Han Shuo with a stunned expression. Only now did he understand that the reason he, the illegitimate son, had suddenly received so much attention was all due to Han Shuo's help. It wasn't that His Majesty had suddenly changed his mind and thought highly of him.
For someone like Lawrence who only cared about results, he was clearly shocked when he heard Sabakas' words. He stared blankly at Han Shuo for a long time before taking a deep breath and sincerely saying to Han Shuo, "So that was the case. Brian, thank you!"
"We are friends. Hehe, of course I will help you. In addition, only when you become the King of Lancelot Empire will the empire become more prosperous. I understand your ability. Really, you can bring a new future to the Lancelot Empire," Han Shuo said with a smile.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Lawrence said, "It seems that I still need to rely on you. If I had listened to Mister Sabakas' words before today, I'm afraid I wouldn't have taken it to heart. But after seeing your unstoppable momentum, I can't help but sigh in admiration of Madame Grace's foresight.
"It's true, Bryan, you have boundless potential. When you were still a necromancy major student, I still remember your strength. Back then, you became my punching bag for a few gold coins, and I could even beat you back then. But now, how long has it been? In less than five years, you are already standing at the peak! Oh, you are only in your early twenties. No one can predict your future! "
"I have to say that Madame Grace's prediction is indeed accurate. Everything is developing according to her predictions. It seems that the Lancelot Empire might really be as Madame Grace said. Because of Brian's existence, it will once again prosper for another hundred years." Sacred swordmaster Karel couldn't help but sigh.
"It's hard to say what will happen in the future. Hehe, the future isn't set in stone. At least, that's what I believe." Han Shuo said with a smile. Soon after, he withdrew his smile and said, "However, when His Majesty the King agreed to help us with all his might, he made me agree to a condition. I thought I should tell you about it at this time."
"Brian, you are too polite. No matter what, we are friends! Moreover, I will rely on you more than you rely on me in the future. There is no need to beat around the bush between us. "Lawrence's expression turned serious as he said to Han Shuo.
From Sabakas and Karel's narration, Lawrence also understood how important Han Shuo was to the Lancelot Empire. Only with the existence of such a character who could change the entire Lancelot Empire could his throne be stable and the Lancelot Empire could become more prosperous.
Grace had even revealed the future path to him at the cost of her life. He clearly understood how he should treat Han Shuo, this big tree that he needed to hug tightly.
"Alright then, I will say it directly. His Majesty the King told me to promise him that no matter what, I must spare the lives of the three princes!" Han Shuo looked at Lawrence and added, "As a father, His Majesty the King doesn't wish for his three sons to die tragically in my hands. I promised him, but I must respect your opinion."
"Your Highness, this is also what His Majesty said to us." Sabakas looked at Lawrence with sparkling eyes and explained.
Lawrence stared blankly and remained silent for a while before saying with a frown, "Since this is Father's final wish, I know what to do. However, I will exile or imprison Charles. As for the other two, as long as they don't resist me, I will make them princes. I will not treat them unfairly."
If it wasn't for the words of Han Shuo, Sabakas, and the others, Lawrence would definitely exterminate Charles. After all, this Charles had hurt him the most. In Lawrence's heart, he had even thought of killing Charles cruelly with his own hands to compensate for the humiliation he had suffered in the past.
However, now that Han Shuo and the two saint rank experts had said so, in addition to the fact that this was his father's final wish, he had no choice but to let Charles live regardless of whether he was truly willing or not. However, it was unclear whether Lawrence would similarly humiliate Charles in order to survive.
With Lawrence's assurance, Han Shuo also heaved a sigh of relief. He smiled and said, "Since you have said so, then I can rest assured. Now that Ossen City has the peculiar assistance that I need for my cultivation, I think I will need at least three days to cultivate. Now that there are two saints and Lord Firenze in Ossen City, I can see that Ashburn and the others have already reached the end of their road. I can rest assured and cultivate."
"Brian, you should properly cultivate. Your strength will make our Lancelot Empire even more aggressive!" Lawrence immediately agreed with a smile.
He understood what an expert who had transcended all restraints meant to a country. Back then, the appearance of the demigod Ayermike Cotton allowed the Lancelot Empire to be established, allowing it to have a hundred years of golden age. If Han Shuo could reach Ayermike Cotton's height, he would similarly be able to bring the Lancelot Empire to new heights.
"Alright, this bell tower will be my training ground. You can all go and do your own things. Hmm, I'll have to trouble you to tell Emily and the others not to disturb me. These few days will be very important to me! "Han Shuo smiled as he drove Lawrence and the others away.
After Lawrence and the other two left, Han Shuo closed his eyes and sensed the remnant energy of the deceased enveloping the entire Ossen City. He had a look of enjoyment as he muttered to himself, "Whether I can truly break through to the next realm will depend on these few days!"
