Hushveil City, one of the seven major cities of the Darkness Dominion.
Han Shuo and Rose strolled side by side on the streets of Hushveil City. Hushveil City wasn't much different from the City of Shadows. There were countless shops along the way. Many gods frequented the shops to purchase divine weapons, energy crystals, and divine scrolls for their cultivation.
The Godswamp Pharmacy was extremely famous in Hushveil City, just like the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy in the City of Shadows. It was the largest pharmacy in Hushveil City. Han Shuo learned the location of the Godswamp Pharmacy by simply asking some random gods along the way.
Hushveil City was just as enormous. It took Han Shuo three hours to travel from the city gate to the Godswamp Pharmacy's shop. Standing in front of the Godswamp Pharmacy's entrance and gazing at the enormous buildings towering into the clouds, Han Shuo realized that the headquarters of the Godswamp Pharmacy was much more magnificent than the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy.
Pharmacists wearing snow-white robes that were unique to pharmacists could be seen roaming in and out of some of the Godswamp Pharmacy's medicine refinement rooms. Along the way, divine guards would push carts filled with all kinds of glassware to the Godswamp Pharmacy's airships. They would place bottles of the latest medicines into the airships and transport them to other major cities of the Darkness Dominion.
Unlike the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy, other than Hushveil City, the Godswamp Pharmacy had branches in several other cities of the Darkness Dominion. The medicines they produced for the major family clans could only be produced in the Godswamp Pharmacy and transported to other major cities using airships.
The Godswamp Pharmacy had a good relationship with the major family clans in the major cities of the Darkness Dominion. It also had connections with the godhunters. Therefore, the long-distance trade between the Godswamp Pharmacy and the major family clans of the Darkness Dominion had never gone wrong.
However, due to the sudden rise of Han Shuo's Celestial Pearl Pharmacy, the major family clans in the City of Shadows stopped purchasing medicines from the Godswamp Pharmacy. As the reputation of the medicines refined by Han Shuo rose, the Godswamp Pharmacy's business was gradually affected.
That being said, the Godswamp Pharmacy had been established in the Darkness Dominion for many years. The Celestial Pearl Pharmacy was no match for the current Godswamp Pharmacy. The scale of the Godswamp Pharmacy far exceeded that of the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy which had only recently developed.
As he stood at the entrance of the Godswamp Pharmacy, Han Shuo was not in a hurry to enter or inquire about Hassling's situation. Instead, he released his demon generals to roam around the various areas of the Godswamp Pharmacy.
The Godswamp Pharmacy was just a big shop. It needed to open its doors to do business. Therefore, the security here was not very tight. Naturally, it was far inferior to some of the big families. The demon flew around the shop and did not encounter too many obstacles. Soon, the situation of the potion shop was reflected in his mind.
"What are you doing here?" Rose was a little puzzled when she saw Han Shuo standing motionlessly in front of the Godswamp Pharmacy, neither entering nor leaving.
Han Shuo put on a faint smile, turned his head to look at Rose, and said, "I'm here to take a look at the situation. Hmm, it's indeed a little annoying to stand in front of the door. Come, let's take a walk inside!"
Rose followed Han Shuo blindly and had no objections. When she saw that Han Shuo had already entered the Godswamp Pharmacy, she did not hesitate and followed Han Shuo into the shop.
As the owner of the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy, Han Shuo was very concerned about the marketing methods of the Godswamp Pharmacy. After entering the Godswamp Pharmacy, he used his demon generals to scout out some of the hidden locations of the Godswamp Pharmacy while walking around with Rose, pretending to be interested in some of the medicines sold in the shop.
Rose followed closely behind Han Shuo. She had been observing Han Shuo with great curiosity. She could sense the murderous intent hidden under Han Shuo's calm and gentle exterior. Not long after entering the Godswamp Pharmacy, Rose realized that Han Shuo's target was someone in the shop. She secretly paid attention to it, fearing that Han Shuo would suddenly kill someone in the Godswamp Pharmacy in broad daylight. That would put her in a very disadvantageous position.
"Hey, isn't this Mister Brian?" A delicate voice sounded beside Han Shuo's ear. Then, a graceful and elegant figure walked over from a distance.
Han Shuo stared blankly for a moment. Han Shuo's goal in coming to the Godswamp Pharmacy was clear – to kill Hassling and Avery! As Hassling had never met Han Shuo before, Han Shuo did not deliberately conceal his presence. He did not know anyone in Hushveil City and was startled to hear someone calling his name.
His heart full of astonishment, Han Shuo turned his head to look in the direction of the voice and immediately saw Charlotte's bright eyes looking at Han Shuo. She seemed to be very surprised.
Charlotte was from the Brackner Family of the Destruction Dominion. Back in the City of Shadows, she had helped Portlem fend off an attack from Han Shuo. After the incident, Charlotte went to Carmelita and apologized to Han Shuo, stating that she had nothing to do with what happened to Portlem.
Han Shuo did not have any prejudice against Charlotte. It was only because of Portlem that Han Shuo vented his anger on Charlotte. After Carmelita pleaded for leniency on Han Shuo's behalf and Charlotte's tactful apology, Han Shuo did not insist on taking revenge on Charlotte.
However, the ill feelings in Han Shuo's heart would not disappear so easily. Although Han Shuo did not insist on taking revenge on Charlotte, he did not have a good impression of her either. Therefore, it was only natural that he would not sell the medicines he personally refined to her or her family clan.
Charlotte walked over smilingly. She appeared very friendly. As soon as she approached Han Shuo, she apologized, "I'm really sorry about what happened last time. I didn't mean to offend you. It was a special situation and I had no other choice. I hope that Mister Brian will forgive me."
Han Shuo did not expect to see Charlotte here. When she apologized as soon as they met, Han Shuo merely nodded indifferently. He had no intention of having a deep conversation with her.
Charlotte was a highgod. She could instinctively sense the presence of people stronger than her. After she exchanged a smile with Han Shuo, she immediately turned to look at Rose in surprise. Rose's strength was a realm higher than hers. She could sense the pressure that Rose gave her. She couldn't figure out why Han Shuo always had powerful gods around him.
When Han Shuo nodded and was about to leave, Charlotte took a step forward, put on a faint smile, and said, "Mister Brian, it must be fate that we met here. Can we find a place to talk? I want to apologize to you as a sign of my sincerity!"
As she had acted rashly the last time, Charlotte had failed to purchase the miraculous medicine from Han Shuo on behalf of the House of Brackner. She had no choice but to come to the Godswamp Pharmacy and try to purchase some commonly used medicines from them.
Charlotte thought that it was a good opportunity to bury the hatchet with Han Shuo. Therefore, she had no intention of letting Han Shuo off the hook. She shook his head.
Han Shuo shook his head. Clearly, he had no interest in talking to Charlotte. He waved his hand and coldly said, "There's no need to apologize. Carmelita has told me that I won't take the matter to heart!"
The fact that Han Shuo had said those words with an indifferent expression meant that he still did not have a favorable impression of her. However, he would not hold the House of Brackner responsible for that matter. This was different from Charlotte's expectations. Therefore, she looked a little sad when she heard what Han Shuo said.
Han Shuo's indifferent attitude was there for all to see. If Charlotte continued to pester Han Shuo, she would only get the opposite effect. Therefore, Charlotte was stunned for a moment. Her fair face was filled with a bitter smile. She did not intend to continue pestering Han Shuo.
"Sister Charlotte, have you chosen what you want?" A sweet and elegant voice suddenly came from afar. A delicate and beautiful woman wearing a simple green robe appeared. She was a very charming beauty. She had fair skin, a tall and slender figure, willow-like eyebrows, and a pair of slender eyes that gave off a tranquil and otherworldly charm.
"Not yet. I just met an acquaintance!" Charlotte turned around and smiled gently. She said, "Let's continue choosing and have a good talk with the Godswamp Pharmacy."
Suddenly, this delicate and beautiful woman looked at Han Shuo with a pair of green eyes in surprise. She exclaimed softly, "It's you! What are you doing here? "
Han Shuo was stunned for a moment. He sized up this delicate and beautiful woman with a strange look and asked in confusion, "Who are you? I don't think I've seen you before, have I? " When he said this, Han Shuo frowned and thought for a moment. He felt that this delicate and beautiful woman seemed a little familiar, especially her sweet and elegant voice. He seemed to have heard it in his memory.
However, looking at this delicate and beautiful face, Han Shuo thought hard for a moment, but he could not recall where he had seen her before.
After the delicate and beautiful woman cried out in surprise, she seemed very happy. She walked past Charlotte and went straight to Han Shuo's side. She said excitedly, "When did you come here? I told you to find me according to the method I gave you. Why didn't you come? "
Han Shuo was confused. He looked blankly at the delicate and beautiful woman who seemed a little excited and said, "You must have mistaken me for someone else. I don't know you!"
The beautiful woman's mouth curled into an amused smile. She looked at Han Shuo carefully and chuckled. "I can't be wrong. It's you! You actually forgot about me! "
As he talked with her, the sense of familiarity in Han Shuo's heart became stronger. However, when he looked at the delicate and beautiful face in front of him, Han Shuo was sure that he had never seen her before. With his amazing memory for beautiful women, Han Shuo believed that he would never forget a beauty of this level even if he took a glance at her.
However, he could feel that this beautiful woman had an indescribable sense of familiarity. This made Han Shuo even more puzzled. He smiled bitterly and said, "I really can't remember. Why don't you give me a hint?"
"Oh no!" The beautiful woman chuckled and shook her head. She glared at Han Shuo and said, "You actually forgot about me. That's too much!"
"Bechymos, you know Brian?" Charlotte, who was at the side, couldn't help but ask with a puzzled expression, "Bechymos, you know Brian?"
When the four words' Bechymos' came out, Han Shuo immediately came to a realization. Everything that happened in the Abyss realm was reflected in his mind. The image of Bechymos, the greatest Demon King of the Abyss realm, gradually overlapped with the elegant and beautiful woman in front of him.
Back in the Abyss realm, Bechymos always wore a ferocious-looking mask. She usually spoke mostly in a male voice. Only when she was absent-minded would she use a clear and melodious female voice. When she finally left the Abyss, Han Shuo had even asked her whether she was a man or a woman. It was at that time that Bechymos used a clear and melodious female voice to answer Han Shuo.
It was also at that time that Han Shuo was certain that Bechymos was indeed a woman. It was just that he had never seen her face. It was no wonder that Han Shuo felt that she looked familiar but couldn't remember where he had seen her before.
"Bechymos, it's actually you?" Han Shuo was very pleasantly surprised after learning who she was. He laughed and said, "I never thought that I would meet you again on Elysium! Haha, how are you? How have you been? "
"You scoundrel, when I left, I gave you a way to contact me. Why didn't you look for me when you came to Elysium?" Bechymos looked at Han Shuo smilingly, but his tone was full of reproach.
After hearing Bechymos' words, Han Shuo recalled that she had indeed given him a way to contact her. However, after the series of events that Han Shuo had experienced on Profound Continent and after he met Donna, Han Shuo did not think about Bechymos again. Naturally, he had long forgotten about the method she had given him.
"Erm … I'm sorry, I forgot!" Han Shuo replied, feeling rather embarrassed.
"Judging from your clothes, you seem to be doing quite well on Elysium!" Bechymos examined Han Shuo from head to toe before she groaned and said, "Your punishment is to treat me to a sumptuous meal at the most high-end Divine Blessing Tavern in Hushveil City. Otherwise, I won't let you off! I'm a very vengeful person! "
Having met Han Shuo on Elysium, Bechymos appeared rather excited. In Elysium, she was not as solemn and inflexible as she was in the Abyss Realm. Without her fierce fanged mask, Bechymos had transformed into a beautiful and elegant woman. She appeared very easy to get along with.
Charlotte was extremely astonished to see that Bechymos and Han Shuo knew each other. As she listened to their conversation, Charlotte gradually realized where Bechymos and Han Shuo met. Bechymos had told Charlotte about her experiences in the Abyss Realm after returning to Elysium. She knew that Bechymos had met a miraculous person in the Abyss Realm and had also heard about her experiences.
It was at this moment that Charlotte heard from Bechymos that Han Shuo seemed to be doing quite well. She couldn't help but smile wryly in her heart.
Han Shuo wasn't just doing quite well.
Now that the House of Han had officially risen to power in the City of Shadows, the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy's business covered every corner of the city, even the House of Brackner had to beg Han Shuo to purchase some of their miraculous medicines.
Han Shuo had accomplished all this in just a few decades. If Han Shuo was doing quite well, then all those who came from low-level material planes would be beggars!
"No problem!" Han Shuo agreed straightforwardly and said, "Let's go. It's my treat today!"
Charlotte was delighted to see that Han Shuo was so friendly to Bechymos. She immediately gave up on buying any medicines from the Godswamp Pharmacy and followed Han Shuo to the restaurant with a smile on her face. She made up her mind to improve her relationship with Han Shuo!
