After taking care of Pegasus and Graeae, Han Shuo assigned them a mission: carry away all the valuables of the Shrine of Ice.
Pegasus and Graeae were old monsters who had lived for god knows how many years. They had a discerning eye for treasures. After planting a seal in their minds, Han Shuo had their lives in his hands. He wasn't afraid that they would play any tricks.
The two were truly afraid of Han Shuo. They flew around several icy mountains with bitter faces, searching for anything valuable for Han Shuo.
If they hadn't met Han Shuo, the two would have been characters that no one on Profound Continent would have dared to provoke. As the saying goes, evil people will only be tormented by evil people. They deserved it. After all, it was Han Shuo who said that he was seriously injured that the two began to harbor evil thoughts.
As an expert who founded the Lancelot Empire, Ayermike Cotton knew that Han Shuo's goal was to unify the entire Profound Continent. Therefore, after learning that Han Shuo's goal was to unify the entire Profound Continent, Ayermike Cotton had truly started to treat Han Shuo as one of his own. Han Shuo had always maintained the proper respect for Ayermike Cotton. He did not give Han Shuo any face like how he treated Pegasus and Graeae.
While the two dejectedly worked on Han Shuo's behalf, Han Shuo and Ayermike Cotton were chatting with a smile on their faces, as though they were two friends despite the difference in age.
"You mentioned that a god of the Shrine of Ice has descended. How strong is that person?" Ayermike Cotton was extremely curious about the Shrine of Ice. He had stayed on Profound Continent for a very long time and had long learned of how powerful the Shrine of Ice was.
"It's a midgod. He's very powerful. If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't display his full strength and that I managed to sneak attack him, I'm afraid that you wouldn't be able to see me today," Han Shuo explained smilingly.
"I didn't expect that he would be a midgod. He is indeed terrifying," Ayermike Cotton said with some lingering fear. Ayermike Cotton felt some lingering fear in his heart. He was aware of the hierarchy of gods and understood what a difference of one level meant.
"Hehe, he underestimated the enemy. Serves him right," Han Shuo said smilingly.
"It can be said that you have destroyed the Shrine of Ice's foundation on Profound Continent. They definitely won't let this matter rest. Have you thought of how you are going to deal with them if they were to cross material planes?" After all, Ayermike Cotton had lived for many years. There were some things he knew.
Han Shuo of the Shrine of Of Ice had long thought of this problem. Han Shuo had long thought of this problem. He knew that it wasn't impossible for him to send of gods of of higher material planes to cross planes through interplanar transportation matrices. This time, it was because that midgod's soul had used Tiana as a medium to descend that Han Shuo managed to injure his soul and force him to retreat. If that midgod had truly used the interplanar transportation matrix to cross dimensions, Han Shuo knew that with his current strength, he would have no chance of victory.
"I haven't thought about it yet. This is indeed a headache," after a long while, Han Shuo shook his head and sighed helplessly.
"Sigh, it seems that we can only take it one step at a time. I hope he won't really cross planes to come here," Ayermike Cotton was also very helpless. His strength was limited and he couldn't help Han Shuo even if he wanted to. All he could do was comfort Han Shuo verbally.
"It's alright, there's always a way," Han Shuo said while pretending to be relaxed. However, his heart was getting heavier and heavier.
He understood that on Profound Continent, other than the Primordius Dragon who acted as his protector, there really wasn't anyone who could threaten him. Han Shuo wasn't even afraid of the Primordius Dragon. However, there were many experts on other material planes. If even a midgod were to descend, Han Shuo wouldn't be able to escape unscathed. Previously, Han Shuo had offended spider goddess Rose. And now, he had injured that midgod of the Shrine of Ice. This enmity had been sown. Perhaps one day, they would meet again. The pressure on Han Shuo made him feel rather heavy.
"What should we do next? Should we make another trip to the Sacred Mountain of the Church of Light? "Ayermike Cotton couldn't help but ask as he knew about Han Shuo's plan.
After hesitating for a moment, Han Shuo shook his head, forced a smile, and said, "Let's wait for a while. I've sustained some injuries this time. The Church of Light might have another battle on the Sacred Mountain. If I were to face the Shrine of Ice again, I really don't have the confidence to withstand it. Hmm, let's go back first. When I recover from my injuries, I will come back and wipe out the Church of Light in one fell swoop. I need to make good use of this period of time to think about how to deal with future crises. "
"Alright, I really do miss the Lancelot Empire. Hehe, I was imprisoned by the Primordius Dragon for five hundred years. I wonder how many things have happened in the Lancelot Empire during these five hundred years. I wonder if the citizens and the imperial family of the Lancelot Empire will still remember me?" Whenever Ayermike Cotton mentioned the Lancelot Empire that he had founded, he would feel a sense of gratification and satisfaction. This was also the reason why he treated Han Shuo so sincerely and amicably after learning that Han Shuo was carrying out his unfinished business.
To Ayermike Cotton, Han Shuo who hailed from Lancelot Empire was equivalent to one of his people. Moreover, Han Shuo was an expert who had the strength to contribute to the empire. The two shared common interests. In addition, Han Shuo's temperament was very much to Ayermike Cotton's liking. Therefore, Ayermike Cotton's attitude towards Han Shuo changed so quickly.
While Han Shuo and Ayermike Cotton were conversing, Pegasus and Graeae did not remain idle. After a while, the two finally collected all the precious items of the Shrine of Ice and stood before Han Shuo one after the other. Pegasus respectfully grabbed a few space rings and handed them to Han Shuo with both hands, saying, "They're all inside. Some of them are really good. My Lordship, please take a look at them."
Han Shuo did not take the items. Instead, he smilingly said to Ayermike Cotton, "The Shrine of Ice has been operating for so many years, it's only natural that they have some interesting items. However, you should also know that with my strength, there are many things that I wouldn't be interested in. I'm still injured, so I'd like to trouble you to help me deal with them."
"No problem. I'm quite familiar with this sort of thing. Hehe, back in the days when I was fighting wars all over the world, I had annihilated many small countries. I've done this sort of thing quite often," Ayermike Cotton said with a rather sinister smile.
"Thank you very much. Come on, let's leave this place first. I reckon that the news of the Shrine of Ice's destruction will soon spread throughout the entire continent. The Shrine of Ice is the most fundamental strength of Kasi Empire. This incident will certainly deal a heavy blow to Kasi Empire's spirit. I believe that they will no longer be able to contend against our Lancelot Empire in the future. " Although Han Shuo was injured, he was still in a pretty good mood for avenging the Shrine of Ice.
"That's true. Without the Shrine of Ice, Kasi Empire will certainly descend into chaos. The reason why this country has always been firmly controlled by the House of Pillon is all because of the deterrence of the Shrine of Ice. Now that the Shrine has been annihilated, I'm afraid that the House of Pillon may not be able to continue to firmly rule over Kasi Empire. " Ayermike Cotton was very familiar with Kasi Empire. He hit the nail on the head and pointed out the possible power struggle that would unfold in Kasi Empire.
"Let's go." Without saying anything else, Han Shuo and his party of four unhurriedly left the Shrine of Ice and returned to Lancelot Empire according to the route they came from.
When passing through the Dragon Valley in the depths of the Dark Forest, Han Shuo hesitated for a moment. He did not head to the Dragon Valley to check if the Primordius Dragon had returned. Before he fully recovered from his injuries, Han Shuo held his breath and did not act rashly.
When they were about to arrive at the Cemetery of Death, Han Shuo's two avatars separated and entered the Cemetery of Death to recover from their injuries. As Han Shuo's avatar cultivated in demonic arts, the speed of recovery far surpassed that of his two avatars. By the time they arrived at the Cemetery of Death, he was basically in good condition. Therefore, he did not enter the Cemetery of Death, but instead brought Ayermike Cotton and the other two to the Valley of Sunshine.
This time, Han Shuo did not stay in the Valley of Sunshine for long. He found Jasper and the others and told them to stay in the Valley of Sunshine to familiarize themselves with the new world known as Profound Continent. After chatting with Trunks for a while, he arrived at Ossen City with Ayermike Cotton and the other two.
Ayermike Cotton had been away from Lancelot Empire for far too long. He really missed Lancelot. In order not to cause a commotion in Lancelot Empire, Han Shuo did not reveal Ayermike Cotton's identity to anyone. To Ayermike Cotton, he really didn't care about such an empty reputation. He had obtained everything he needed five hundred years ago. He really didn't care about being worshipped like a god in Lancelot Empire.
The reason why Han Shuo wanted to return to Ossen City was to let Ayermike Cotton relive his old days. On the other hand, Han Shuo wanted to personally greet Lawrence and come up with a plan to launch an all-out attack on other countries.
After arriving at Ossen City, Pegasus and Graeae were arranged by Han Shuo to join the Dark Mantle. They became the two most terrifying trump cards of the Dark Mantle and were in charge of handling the most dangerous and difficult missions of the Dark Mantle. Both of them possessed basegod strengths. With them in the Dark Mantle, Lancelot Empire would be absolutely safe in handling some of the shady affairs.
For example, when two armies were engaged in battle, they could get rid of the Empire's commanders or deploy powerful magical matrixes to turn the tide of the battle. It was impossible for Han Shuo to do all these things by himself. With them around, Han Shuo could save a lot of effort.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Han Shuo wouldn't summon the experts of the Abyss realm. After all, the creatures of the Abyss realm were unlike the humans on Profound Continent. If the experts of the Abyss realm were to arrive on Profound Continent, it would cause unimaginable panic to the people of Profound Continent. Han Shuo did not wish to become the enemy of the entire Profound Continent. Therefore, he would never mobilize the forces of the Abyss realm unless absolutely necessary.
However, with Han Shuo's current strength and the formidable experts he had under his command, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to help Lancelot Empire unify Profound Continent even if he didn't utilize the experts of the Abyss realm.
After making arrangements for Pegasus and Graeae, Ayermike Cotton was arranging the large number of items he obtained from the Shrine of Ice. It was at this moment that the members of the Calamity Church, who he had not seen for a long time, traveled thousands of miles to pay their respects to Han Shuo.
