She was skinny and didn't have much meat on her body. Her skin was greenish-brown, her eyebrows were sparse, and the wrinkles on her face were like deep ravines. When she grinned crazily, the wrinkles squeezed together, giving a strong visual impact.
So ugly! Perhaps everyone who saw her appearance would involuntarily give birth to such a sigh.
She floated towards Han Shuo and Han Shuo. There was an obvious aura of death on her body. She was a mid-stage highgod. Even in Tanai, such strength was rare. Behind her were seven guards. Three of them possessed early-stage highgod strength. Every one of them was hideous and had cold, gloomy faces.
Normally, when faced with her valiant strength, people would never speak the truth about their feelings in their hearts. No one would point out the flaws in her appearance to avoid angering her and causing trouble for themselves.
However, on Han Shuo's side were people like Han Huo and Han Mu who had no scruples. Before she could reach Rose, Han Huo suddenly shrieked, "Wow, what a monster!"
"So ugly. I have never seen a woman uglier than her. Dammit, how unlucky!" Han Mu also cried out loudly. His face was filled with fright as he retreated to avoid the attack.
The reason the two had ridiculed Han Shuo was because they had sensed the woman's hostility towards them.
"Bertha, it's you!" Rose's face jolted. Her beautiful eyes were brimming with murderous intent.
The hideous old woman let out a sinister laugh. She greeted Rose with a sinister smile. Then, she turned to Han Huo and Han Mu and said, "You two reckless brats, I won't argue with you here. But you better not leave the Omphalos, or you will die!"
"Ugly woman, are you afraid of being criticized for your ugliness?" When Han Huo heard Bertha's threat, he immediately said in a sarcastic tone, "Your face looks like it's rotten. Even I can smell a nauseating stench coming from it. You still dare to show yourself in such a state? I must say, I admire your courage!"
Han Mu did not waste any more words. He kept as far away as possible from Han Huo. The disgust on his face was very obvious.
Bertha knew that her appearance was unbearable to look at, but this was the first time anyone had ever ridiculed her with such vicious words. She suddenly glared at Han Huo like a viper, ready to kill.
"Bertha, don't cause trouble here!" Suddenly, a warning came from afar. A group of Omphalos guards looked at them coldly.
Suppressing the rage in her heart, Bertha stared coldly at Rose and said in a low voice, "I've been looking for you for a long time. I thought you would be hiding. Hehe, I didn't expect you to show up in the Fringe! Good, very good. The moment you leave the Omphalos will be the moment of your death! "
After that, Bertha nodded at Han Huo and Han Mu and said with a hideous smile, "You two brats, when the time comes, you will know the consequences of trying to please yourself!" She then waved her hand and said, "Let's go!" The guards who had followed them all looked deeply in their direction, memorizing the faces of Han Shuo's party in their hearts before they left apathetically.
"Who is she? What grudge do you have against her? "asked Han Shuo in a soft voice after Bertha left.
Rose had been staring at Bertha until she disappeared from view. She then explained to Han Shuo, "Bertha and I used to be friends in the Fringe. But when her son tried to harm me with a potion, I killed him. After that incident, Bertha went on a killing spree. She never stopped looking for trouble until I left the Fringe. "
"Any man would want someone like her?" asked Han Mu as though he was making a fuss about nothing.
"Her current appearance was caused by a serious injury. Before she was disfigured, Bertha was quite pretty," explained Rose indifferently after shooting a glance at Han Mu.
"Don't worry about her. If we run into her when we leave the city, she will be courting death!" Han Shuo did not take Bertha seriously at all. To him, a mid-stage highgod was far from being a threat to them.
"Bertha might be easy to deal with, but her husband, Buzz, is a different story." Rose let out a soft sigh and explained, "Buzz possesses late-stage highgod strength and cultivates in the edict of destruction. Back in the Fringe, he was known for his ruthlessness and ruthlessness. He had a large group of criminals under his control. When Bertha saw that we possess extraordinary strength, she will definitely send a message to Buzz. I believe that it won't be long before Buzz arrives at the Omphalos. Buzz is quite famous in the Fringe and many people have to give him face. By that time, once we leave the Omphalos, we won't be able to escape from Buzz and Bertha's pursuit! "
Rose's face turned gloomy. She looked at Han Shuo and sighed, "I'm sorry, I didn't want to cause you so much trouble."
Han Shuo shook his head smilingly and said, "Although there are countless ferocious and ruthless people in the Fringe, the Five Sovereigns are the only ones I care about! No matter how powerful Buzz is, he's just a highgod. Don't worry, if he dares to show up, I won't mind giving him a taste of what it's like to offend us! "
"That's right, she's just a whore who spoils her son. Why would we be afraid of her?" Han Huo comforted Rose.
Han Shuo's impression of Rose had changed ever since the incident at the Celestial Pearl Pharmacy in Ethereal City where Rose was attacked by a large group of assailants and asked Han Tu and himself to leave first. In Han Shuo's mind, Han Shuo was the most powerful person in the world. He had a blind trust in Han Shuo and did not believe that anyone could defeat Han Shuo.
This blind trust came from their past experiences. They had been serving Han Shuo for many years and had never seen Han Shuo suffer a loss. As time went by, their trust in Han Shuo grew more and more blind.
"Father, as long as you can deal with Buzz, we won't lose!" Han Hao, the Little Skull, was not as blind as Han Huo. As his strength rapidly increased, he was able to see things more intuitively.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Han Shuo put on a confident smile and continued, "Come, let's continue our stroll. Let's see if we can get any information about Kage."
As long as one had enough Black Crystal Coins, one would be able to obtain the information one wanted in the Omphalos. There were people in the Omphalos who specialized in selling information. There were many caravans passing through the Land of Chaos. If the Fringedwellers wanted to plunder, they could get the most detailed information from Wind Spirit in the Omphalos.
In the beginning, Wind Spirits only sold such information. But gradually, Wind Spirits sold all kinds of information. As long as one was willing to spend black crystal coins, Wind Spirits would be able to get all kinds of information.
Han Shuo threw out a thousand black crystal coins and learned about Kage from Wind Spirits. He learned that Kage visited the Omphalos five days ago and went to pay tribute to Salas. Kage should be on the Empyrean Peak of Salas.
Although Tyre, Logue, Ossora, Salas, and Wasis were in charge of the management of the Omphalos, they usually did not come to the Omphalos. There were countless famous mountains, rivers, lakes, and abysses in the vast Fringe. Tyre, Logue, Ossora, Salas, and Wasis lived in the most dangerous and mysterious regions.
Salas lived on the Empyrean Peak. The Empyrean Peak was a hundred thousand meters tall and looked like a gigantic sword piercing through the clouds. The Empyrean Peak represented Salas' authority. His subordinates would come to the Empyrean Peak every year to pay tribute to him. Under normal circumstances, Salas would not leave the Empyrean Peak. He would only show himself when his subordinates couldn't solve a problem.
As soon as Han Shuo heard that Kage was currently residing on Salas' Empyrean Peak, he knew that it would be impossible for him to capture Kage for the time being. Not only was Salas in the Empyrean Peak, but his most powerful subordinates were also stationed there all year round. The Empyrean Peak was densely covered with boundaries. Han Shuo knew that with just Han Hao, Rose, and the others, he would be in big trouble if he tried to force his way into the Empyrean Peak.
Han Shuo did not intend to go to the Empyrean Peak and challenge Salas immediately. He would have to wait until Kage left the Empyrean Peak. Not long after Kage, Han Hao, and Rose wandered around Tanai, a group of guards approached them. They were led by a cold-faced, arrogant, late-stage highgod of darkness.
"My friends, I heard that you have offended Bertha and Buzz?" the leader of the group asked as he raised his head.
"What does it have to do with you?" replied Han Huo impatiently. He was annoyed to see Duan Ling Tian acting all high and mighty.
"You still don't know when you're about to die!" Shouted the guard coldly. He looked at Han Shuo and his party. Perhaps he felt that Rose was the strongest among them, he turned to Rose and said, "There are not many people in the Fringe who dare to disrespect Buzz and Bertha. They are waiting for you outside the Omphalos. Once you leave the Omphalos, you will be hunted down by Buzz and Bertha. If you want to live, hand over a million black crystal coins and I will escort you out of the Omphalos. What do you say? "
Rose did not reply but turned her gaze to Han Shuo.
The guard was stunned for a moment. He immediately realized that he had targeted the wrong person. It turned out that Han Shuo was their leader. He was very flabbergasted. After carefully observing Han Shuo for a moment, he discovered that Han Shuo's body did not give off any particularly intense energy fluctuations. This baffled him.
"No need!" Han Shuo shook his head and refused.
The guard did not continue to pester Han Shuo. He sneered and nodded. He waved his hand and was about to leave with his party. It seemed that he was certain that Han Shuo and his party would die.
"Wait!" Said Han Shuo again. When the guard turned around, Han Shuo smilingly asked, "May I know your name?"
"Haruli! Have you changed your mind? "said the guard arrogantly," I want one and a half million black crystal coins. Otherwise, there's nothing to talk about! "
Han Shuo shook his head smilingly and said, "No, I don't think so. You don't seem to belong to the Five Sovereigns. Hmm, your subordinates are quite strong. Are you interested in following me? "
Haruli was stunned. He looked at Han Shuo as though he was looking at a fool and said in a mocking tone, "Ask around in the Fringe who I am. Even the Five Sovereigns tried to recruit me but I refused. Who do you think you are? "Haruli waved his hand and said," Let's go. This man must be crazy! "
