Lancelot Empire, Brettel City.
Before leaving, Han Shuo still needed to give some instructions. Fortunately, Jack and the others in Brettel City had long been accustomed to Han Shuo's mysterious disappearance. He really didn't need to worry about Brettel City at all.
Han Shuo gave instructions one by one. Then, he persuaded Helen for quite a while, repeating the same words he had said to Jasper, Emily, and the others. Only then did he manage to pacify Helen.
Sophie of Kasi Empire and her entire clan had migrated to Brettel City. From some people, Han Shuo learned that Sophie's father had the intention of bringing him and Sophie together. The few women he had with him were enough to make Han Shuo feel annoyed. After breaking through from Carnal realm, Han Shuo really didn't want to continue provoking women. Therefore, he avoided Sophie as much as possible.
Gilbert was also in Brettel City. Gilbert, who had recovered, still had room to improve his strength. Therefore, Han Shuo did not allow Gilbert to leave with him.
Gilbert still didn't know about the tragedy of the dark dragons. Han Shuo knew that this matter couldn't be hidden from Gilbert. Before leaving, Han Shuo told Gilbert about the tragedy of the dark dragons in the outskirts of Brettel City.
After learning that his only relative, his grandfather Gilges, was also dead, Gilbert couldn't help but weep.
Han Shuo couldn't do anything as he watched Gilbert howl in pain. He couldn't even find the words to comfort him. The dark dragons had been guarding the path leading to the third layer of the underground world. Their deaths were somewhat related to Han Shuo. Han Shuo somewhat blamed himself for not being cautious enough, resulting in the tragedy of the dark dragons.
Although Han Shuo had killed Kaiser and Eriksson with his own hands, he still couldn't untie the knot in his heart.
When Gilbert learned that Kaiser, Eriksson, and the other main culprits were either directly or indirectly killed by Han Shuo, he suddenly felt very powerless. Without a target for revenge, he had nowhere to vent his resentment.
Gilbert knew all the secrets of the Cemetery of Death, so Han Shuo's departure was actually easier for him to accept. Perhaps it was because his grandfather Gilbert's death had diluted his reluctance for Han Shuo's departure, so he didn't ask Han Shuo for anything like Emily did. Han Shuo knew that Gilbert would not be able to recover from the pain in a short period of time, so he left some time for Gilbert. After saying a few words of advice, he left alone.
Han Shuo headed for the headquarters of the Calamity Church after he had dealt with all the messy matters.
With the identity of a cardinal, Han Shuo didn't need to traverse the desert on foot this time. He used the magical transportation matrix and directly arrived at the headquarters of the Calamity Church.
A few days ago, members of the Calamity Church in Lancelot Empire had conveyed a message to Han Shuo, asking Han Shuo to make a trip to the headquarters of the Calamity Church as soon as possible.
Han Shuo understood that Donna must be in a hurry to meet him to explain some matters regarding this continent.
After arriving at the Calamity Church, Han Shuo soon met Donna and the others in a secret shrine through the Pope.
Only the Calamity Church's fat Pope and a few cardinals knew that experts from alien material planes had descended on Profound Continent. Ordinary believers had no idea at all.
When Han Shuo arrived at the secret shrine, he was surprised to see Kironlo whom he once had a grudge against.
As the oldest believer of the Calamity Church on Profound Continent, Kironlo was one of the few who knew the identities of Donna and the others. However, it was a pity that Kironlo didn't seem to understand the relationship between Donna and Han Shuo. After Han Shuo left the shrine, Kironlo, who had previously been humiliated and punished by Han Shuo, seemed to feel that his safety had been secured. He immediately started to denounce Han Shuo.
"Divine Emissaries, this fella named Brian is not a devout believer at all. All these years, his strength has only advanced by leaps and bounds thanks to the divine weapon, the skeletal staff, that he unintentionally obtained. He is condescending and has no respect for us, his seniors. This is against the principles of the Church! " Kironlo suddenly stood up the moment Han Shuo walked in and started denouncing Han Shuo with a strong sense of righteousness.
Even the Pope of the Calamity Church didn't know much about the relationship between Han Shuo and Donna. He only knew that Han Shuo acted as a guide, but he didn't know that Donna and the other high-ranking gods had been friends through life and death with Han Shuo. The fat Pope was rather worried that Donna and the others would listen to Kironlo's words after seeing Kironlo distort the truth and criticize Han Shuo from beginning to end.
The Calamity Church was indeed a church that valued seniority and seniority. Kironlo was well aware of this fact and felt that he had the most say in front of Donna. He was also well aware that his strength was far inferior to Han Shuo's. He was determined to make sure that Han Shuo would suffer the wrath of Donna and the others before Donna and the others left.
The other cardinals were all secretive and didn't dare to say too much. They only stole glances at Kironlo with flickering eyes.
"The skeletal staff? Hehe, that's a divine weapon that my grandfather once used!" Li Wei chuckled and shot a glance at Han Shuo.
It turned out that the owner of the skeletal staff was her grandfather. Han Shuo was astounded. When he looked at Li Wei again, he couldn't help but feel a little more amiable.
"Divine Emissary, his presence in the Calamity Church will only break the rules and be detrimental to the development of the Church. It's a pity that he is so powerful that no one in the Church can restrain him. Even I was gravely injured by him. Fortunately, the Divine Emissaries are here. Otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble this person would cause! " Kironlo looked at Han Shuo with indignation. His face was filled with righteous indignation. Those who didn't know him might really think that he had put in a lot of effort for the sake of the Calamity Church.
"Brian, what do you say?" Donna put on a sweet smile and asked Han Shuo with interest.
Han Shuo, Donna, and the others had gone through life and death situations together with them. Kironlo's close relationship with them was not something that Kironlo could imagine.
Under Donna's amused gaze, Han Shuo laughed involuntarily and replied, "That's right, I'm being domineering. I'll get rid of anyone who doesn't make me feel good! I'm even more excessive than what he said. Do as you see fit! "
Han Shuo had learned from Olde that the entire Profound Continent had been assigned to him. This also meant that from today onwards, Han Shuo could kill anyone on Profound Continent if he wanted to. He was the true master of this piece of land. With this confidence, in addition to his relationship with Donna and the others, what else did he have to fear?
The others had no idea that Han Shuo would be so confident. Even the big fatty Pope who had always had a favorable impression of Han Shuo was dumbfounded to see him utter such outrageous words in front of the Divine Emissaries. He stared at Han Shuo with wide eyes, unable to understand why Han Shuo, who had always been cautious, would make such a grave mistake at this critical juncture.
The other cardinals looked at Han Shuo, dumbfounded. They looked at Han Shuo as though they were looking at a dead man. They thought, No matter how valiant you are on Profound Continent, you are still a weakling before these Divine Emissaries. To be so arrogant in front of these people, isn't this courting death?
"Do you see that? Lord Emissary, this man dares to be so domineering in front of all of you. He is too arrogant! How can the Church develop well with such a person on Profound Continent? " Kironlo was overjoyed to hear Han Shuo's words. He excitedly pointed at Han Shuo and started yelling.
"I can't, but you can? Hehe, you have been in the Calamity Church for many years. The Calamity Church has always been suppressed by the Church of Light to the point where they can't even raise their heads. The Calamity Church can only hide in the dark. Do you think that you are stronger than me? "Han Shuo said in a calm and unruffled manner.
"Shut up! If it wasn't for my decision, the Church wouldn't have been able to survive until today! "Kironlo's face turned red from embarrassment as he tried to argue his way out of the situation. Han Shuo's words had hit the nail on the head.
"Old fart, who are you telling to shut up?!" Han Shuo's face turned cold and he said in an ice-cold voice.
"Little bastard, how dare you be so arrogant in front of these Divine Emissaries!" Kironlo replied furiously.
Without wasting any more words, Han Shuo suddenly shot towards Kironlo. His left hand shot out at lightning speed, grabbed Kironlo by the neck, and lifted him high into the air. The Demonic Blades shot out from the middle finger of Han Shuo's right hand and mercilessly pierced into Kironlo's gaping mouth. Han Shuo forcefully stirred his mouth. Kironlo's lips were torn apart. His tongue, teeth, and blood mixed together and gushed out in large mouthfuls. His face was filled with fear as he howled miserably.
Kironlo couldn't even finish his sentence. He kicked his legs in midair. He looked at Donna, Li Wei, and the others with a pleading expression, waiting for Donna and the others to kill Han Shuo.
Han Shuo was using such a bloody method to deal with Kironlo in front of Donna and the others. Everyone thought that Han Shuo had gone mad. A few cardinals who had a good impression of Han Shuo sighed inwardly. They lowered their heads, unable to bear to see the tragedy that was about to befall Han Shuo.
One second, two seconds, three seconds …
Five seconds passed. Those who lowered their heads did not hear anything but Kironlo's wretched howls grew louder and louder.
Puzzled, they couldn't help but raise their heads. They saw that Kironlo's face was badly mutilated. His cheeks had been pierced by a sharp blade and were nearly unrecognizable.
Inside the shrine, the few consciousnesses from different material planes wore tranquil expressions. They were smilingly watching Han Shuo inflict violence on Kironlo. They did not have the slightest intention to take action.
Kironlo's fear turned into despair. He stared at Donna and the others with his trembling hands and feet, as though he wanted to say something. Soon enough, Kironlo's flailing arms and legs were also broken. They hung limply, just like his mood.
Those cardinals who wanted to see Han Shuo make a fool of himself and those who were worried about Han Shuo were dumbfounded. They no longer looked at Kironlo but focused their attention on Donna and the others, as though they were trying to figure out what was going on.
Gradually, from the way Donna and the others looked at Han Shuo, they vaguely understood what was going on.
In the eyes of Donna and the others, they saw appreciation, the ease of watching a joke, and the harmony between friends …
"Bryan, that's enough. Just kill this guy who doesn't know what's good for him. Don't make it bloody!" Donna finally stopped Han Shuo smilingly when she saw that Han Shuo seemed to have the intention to skin Kironlo alive.
Those cardinals turned pale with fright when they heard those words. Their gazes when they looked at Han Shuo were filled with unconcealable fear and reverence!
"Very well!" Han Shuo stopped tormenting those people. He patted on Kironlo's head with his large hand. Bang! Kironlo's head exploded like a ripe watermelon falling to the ground.
While those cardinals were trembling with fear, Donna leisurely said, "From today onwards, this Profound Continent will belong to Brian. Everything will be under his control. All of you must obey his orders. He has the right to punish those who disobey. Do you understand? "
"Yes, yes …" those cardinals hastily replied with faces filled with fear.
"Alright, all of you are dismissed. We need to talk in private!" Donna nodded in satisfaction and casually instructed.
In the eyes of Donna and the others, those cardinals were as weak as ants that could be squashed to death at any moment. They had absolutely no right to speak to Donna.
At Donna's command, even the big fat Pope was frightened out of his wits. He hastily left.
"Pope, you don't have to worry. Everything in the Calamity Church on Profound Continent will still be under your control. And you will soon discover that your authority will only grow! "Han Shuo bunched his brows and said to the Calamity Pope.
"I know what I should do!" By now, the Calamity Pope had long understood the situation. In front of Donna, he respectfully saluted Han Shuo and cautiously retreated.
"This fella is rather tactful. It seems that you can save some energy!" Donna commented after the Pope left.
"It's impossible for one to sit in this position without some discerning eyes!" Han Shuo said smilingly. He wasn't the slightest bit worried that the big fat Pope would have any ulterior motives. On one hand, the big fat Pope knew of Han Shuo's strength. On the other hand, from the attitude of Donna and the others, the big fat Pope should have guessed that this was the opinion of his superiors.
The reason why Han Shuo comforted the big fat Pope was that he needed him to properly manage the Calamity Church. Han Shuo was afraid that the big fat Pope would face everything in a negative manner and refuse to devote himself wholeheartedly to the Calamity Church.
"Alright, let me tell you about the current situation and some agreements!" Donna repeated what Olde had told her. It was no different from what Olde had said.
"Congratulations, Brian. Hehe, so you are the one who obtained my grandpa's skeletal staff. When you arrive on Elysium, all the more reason for you to come visit our family. Oh, right, do you know that old lizard who obtained the skeletal staff? He's in our family too! "Li Wei said smilingly.
"Yes, I do. I will definitely pay you a visit soon!" Han Shuo immediately agreed upon hearing that Ancient Lizard King Dagassi was in the family.
"Brian, we are about to depart. Are you coming with us?" Donna asked.
"I still need to cultivate for a period of time. After some time, I will depart for Elysium. I will look for you then." Han Shuo thought for a moment and felt that he should stabilize his current realm before leaving. In addition, he should cultivate a few demonic arts and treasures in case of emergencies. Therefore, he tactfully declined Donna's suggestion.
