Had it not been for the Primordius Dragon cutting off the interplanar passageway to Han Shuo, Adele would have been killed five years ago. After five years, Han Shuo did not expect that the unremarkable Adele would cause such a huge ruckus in Brettel City. This was rather out of Han Shuo's expectations.
Through the narration of Statholme the old monster, Jack, and the others, Han Shuo was able to quickly understand the current situation. With Han Shuo's strength expanding to such an extent, Han Shuo did not take any of the threats on Profound Continent to heart.
Han Shuo unfolded his consciousness and circled around Brettel City. Han Shuo immediately sensed the shrine of spider goddess Rose.
At the center of a palace at the summit of Mount Silk was a mysterious statue of spider goddess Rose.
Some believers dressed in black robes were devoutly prostrating themselves in worship towards the statue of spider goddess Rose, selflessly offering their faith. Among them was an elegant purple-haired young lady who stood indifferently in front of the statue of spider goddess. Specks of demonic light sprinkled from her hand onto those worshipping believers in front of her.
At this time of war, the people at the bottom of society needed an object of faith. Adele, who considered herself to be Han Shuo's woman, used extraordinary means to gain the trust of Emily, Phoebe, and the other ladies. She was also highly regarded by Lawrence. Under her propaganda, spider goddess Rose became the object of faith for many citizens of Brettel City.
The palace on the summit of Mount Silk was currently the largest shrine in the territory of Brettel City. For the past few years, spider goddess Lolth had performed several miracles, causing those believers to spread the word willingly. They even took the initiative to persuade the commoners in the surroundings to become believers of goddess Lolth.
In the forbidden area behind the shrine, Adele, who had changed her identity, was sitting cross-legged at the center of a magical matrix in the shape of a spider web. The element of darkness around her was dense. Adele had a solemn expression and faint dark radiance was flickering on her body.
All of a sudden, an intense palpitation rose in Adele's heart, as though a terrifying crisis was descending from the heavens.
In the blink of an eye, five years had passed, and Adele had become a demigod through her own efforts and the Spider Goddess' love. In Brettel City, by virtue of her special identity, she had befriended the important figures around Han Shuo and became an extremely special existence. She believed that there shouldn't be anyone in Brettel City who could threaten her.
"What's going on?" Puzzled, Adele slowly opened her eyes and muttered to herself.
She opened her eyes, and the spider silk threads around her disappeared into her body one by one. Above the empty hall, there was a huge spider web covering it. A few shadows that had been entangled in the spider web slid down and turned into five women with blank eyes.
"Sir, what are your orders?" One of the women asked in a numb and lifeless voice.
"Nothing, I just feel a little uneasy." Adele frowned and said indifferently. Every time she saw these expressionless faces, Adele felt a chill and uneasiness in her heart. However, Adele knew in her heart that she needed these helpers who seemed to have appeared out of thin air.
"With us here, no one can hurt you. As long as you do what you should do, you will be fine, "the woman in the lead said in a lifeless voice.
"When will the Goddess bestow me new power?" Although Adele was afraid, she still needed to ask clearly when it concerned her own interests.
"When all the people of Brettel City acknowledge the existence of the Goddess and all the power of faith belongs to the Goddess, you will be able to obtain new power," the woman in the lead replied in the same lifeless voice.
"You will probably never have the chance!" A cold voice suddenly sounded from outside the hall. A majestic figure walked in step by step.
"Brian, it's you, it's actually you!" Adele cried out in surprise. Her eyes were filled with hatred as she shrieked hysterically, "You didn't die, you actually didn't die. Very good, very good! Haha! "
Looking at Adele's shrieking and laughing, Han Shuo's expression was cold and detached as he said, "What? Not going to continue to play tricks? "
"Back then, I couldn't kill you, so I had to conceal my identity. Now, only death awaits you. What else do I need to conceal?" Adele glared at Han Shuo resentfully. That familiar aura reappeared on her body. She said word by word, "Everything I have done is for you to pay the price!"
"With just you?" Han Shuo looked at Adele coldly and taunted.
"It's not me." Adele took a deep breath, pointed at the women beside her with hollow eyes, and said, "It's them!"
While Adele was speaking, the five women with hollow eyes and pale faces had unknowingly surrounded him. The dark energy on their bodies was slowly being released.
The five women all cultivated in the elemental energy of darkness and possessed at least demigod strength. Han Shuo could sense a little evil divine energy from spider goddess Rose from the five of them.
Nodding, Han Shuo said in a callous voice, "No wonder even the old monster Statholme is somewhat apprehensive. So it's because you have these guys by your side."
"Scared? Haha! " Adele laughed hysterically, but her eyes were staring venomously at Han Shuo. She said, "It's good that you're not dead. I want to watch you die slowly."
Five years ago, when Han Shuo cultivated demonic arts to the Carnal Realm, he already possessed demigod strength. Every increase in demonic arts would increase his strength tenfold or even a hundredfold. Now that Han Shuo was at the Nine Changes realm, he did not know what realm his true strength had reached. However, when surrounded by the five women, Han Shuo clearly did not feel the slightest sense of danger.
In Han Shuo's eyes, the five seemingly lifeless women were like ants that could be squashed to death at any time.
"I won't waste any more time with you." Han Shuo said coldly and suddenly made his move. A violent evil energy suddenly erupted from his body.
The five expressionless women who had surrounded Han Shuo suddenly trembled.
Their strength wasn't on the same level at all. There was no joy in slaughtering them. Violent, evil energy was released from Han Shuo's two hands. The air around him crackled as a few streaks of blood flashed across the dark hall. The five women who hadn't even had the chance to make a move had already become truly lifeless, ice-cold corpses.
The Demonic Blades unsheathed and rested on Adele's smooth neck. Han Shuo looked coldly at the horrified Adele and said, "Five years ago, I could easily kill you. Five years later, you still don't have the slightest chance. All your efforts have been exchanged for a predestined ending — death again! "
"No, I can't accept this!" Adele shrieked like a madwoman. She stared resentfully at Han Shuo and said, "Why, why did you become so strong? Why is it that even the divine servant carefully cultivated by the Spider Goddess is powerless to resist? "
Adele was so agitated that she didn't even care about the Demonic Blades resting on her neck. She couldn't help but shake her head as she yelled. Her neck was already stained with blood.
Han Shuo didn't kill Adele immediately. This woman who used his name to recruit believers for the Spider Goddess still had an important mission that she hadn't completed.
The Demonic Blades suddenly retracted. Han Shuo's left hand lost its sharpness and became smooth again. Grabbing Adele's hair, Han Shuo dragged the battered and exhausted Adele like a dead dog and walked straight to the front of the hall.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?" Adele was still yelling crazily.
Han Shuo didn't pay any attention to her. He dragged this crazy woman all the way to the largest Spider Goddess Shrine in Brettel City. At this moment, some believers of the Spider Goddess were still kneeling humbly, worshipping the altar in front of them.
"Saintess!" The voice came from the mouth of the beautiful young lady presiding over the shrine. Looking at the Shrine Lord who was being dragged over like a dead dog, the young lady couldn't restrain the fear in her heart and screamed.
"Villain, put down the Saintess!" The believers who were worshipping suddenly shouted crazily when they noticed the changes in the shrine.
With a wave of his hand, a bright invisible boundary blocked all of them. Paying no heed to their craziness, Han Shuo threw Adele onto the altar in the center and activated the altar with great familiarity.
Hundreds and thousands of spider webs darted out like little snakes and immediately wrapped around Adele. Rays of dazzling light, accompanied by the descent of a mysterious energy, appeared on the body of Adele, who was wrapped in spider webs at the center of the altar. In the next moment, Adele's eyes brightened as she fiercely stared at Han Shuo. The look in her eyes was unfamiliar and evil.
"Who are you? How dare you ruin my business? "Adele suddenly spoke in a somewhat unfamiliar voice.
"I am the Lord of Brettel City. If you want to steal the power of faith that belongs to me, come here yourself." Han Shuo said indifferently as he looked at Adele with cold eyes and sensed the infusion of divine soul from who knows how many material planes away.
Adele stared deeply at Han Shuo for a while. After a moment of silence, she suddenly said, "I will come here myself!"
"It's just as well. It's time to settle the debt from back then!" Han Shuo shouted.
After she finished speaking, Adele's eyes slowly closed. Blood flowed out of her seven orifices. Seeing that Adele's mission was completed, Han Shuo stretched out his hand and lightly patted her forehead, thoroughly erasing her soul.
