* * * Witherbone City, the City Lord's mansion.
City Lord Hill, Sha-t 'o of the House of Kiaran, and the patriarchs of several major family clans of Witherbone City were gathered together.
"You still haven't gotten anything out of him?" Hill sat on the throne made of white bones with a frown on his face.
As the City Lord of Witherbone City, it was only natural that Hill cultivated in the energy of death. He possessed late-stage highgod strength. A hundred years ago, the Overgod of Death had left a divine mark on him. With the help of that divine mark, it was possible for him to make a breakthrough and become an overgod within a short period of time.
Even though he would never possess a unique Quintessence like the Overgod of Death, being an overgod was still a terrifying feat. There were only twelve overgods on Elysium who possessed the Quintessence and only a few dozen overgods who did not possess the Quintessence. Hill had been cultivating diligently and taking care of Witherbone City for the Overgod of Death just so that he could obtain a divine mark to make a breakthrough and become an overgod.
Hill was an ambitious man. As soon as he heard from Sha-t 'o about the miraculous cooperation between the Han family's Celestial Pearl Pharmacy and the Han Family guards, he immediately had other ideas. Sha-t 'o was not a kind-hearted person either. The two immediately made preparations and led the Han family to Witherbone City from Hofs and Larikson's pursuit.
Hill and Sha-t 'o's divine guards were very courteous and courteous to them. But as soon as they arrived at Witherbone City, Hill immediately asked Sha-t' o to find a way to obtain information from the Han family. When he discovered that the Han family was being tight-lipped, he immediately ordered his divine guards to be stationed near the Kiaran Residence to prevent the Han family from establishing themselves in the city.
Sha-t 'o shook his head in a distressed manner and said, "No matter what I offer, they won't give me those two things. They have kept the prescriptions of the medicines and the training methods of the Han family guards tightly under wraps. "
"The Han family no longer has a foothold in the City of Shadows. Although their Celestial Pearl Pharmacy still has branches in several cities, they do not have the power to protect all of them. That young man named Brian is still in the Fringe. What else do they want? "said Benfaser, another patriarch of a family clan in Witherbone City.
"I wonder what they are thinking!" Sha-t 'o frowned and said, "We have made it so obvious. Logically speaking, the Han family should know what we want. They should also know that we won't let them go if we can't get what we want. Why do they insist?"
"Those families that have business dealings with the Han family keep sending people over, saying that they want to discuss business with the Han family. Their purpose should be similar to ours." Hill knitted his brows and said to Sha-t 'o, "We have to speed up the process. We won't be able to keep this secret for long. Those families are not easy to deal with. It won't be long before they send their people to Witherbone City. At that time, it will be troublesome if they know what we are doing!"
"Give me another month. If the Han family is still so insistent after a month, don't blame me for being impolite!" Sha-t 'o also knew that this matter could not be dragged on any longer. Scheer was getting impatient, and this matter had to be settled as soon as possible. They could not let their efforts and efforts go to waste.
"Alright, as soon as possible. If the Han family still refuses to give in after a month, then we won't be polite anymore! "Scheer sneered and said," If they refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, then we will kill them all! We cultivators of the energy of death know much more about souls than ordinary people. I don't believe that their souls can keep their secrets! "
"It's better not to do that. If we go too far and the news is leaked, not only will the other families join forces to suppress us, but it will also bring us a lot of trouble. If possible, we should let the Han family take the initiative to cooperate with us and tell us some of their secrets. Only then will we be on our side! "Benfaser said in a deep voice.
Sha-t 'o nodded and replied, "I will try my best to settle this matter in a gentler way. If we really have no other choice, we will have to start a massacre!" Sha-t' o said with a cold face, "Compared to the two biggest secrets of the Han family, this is a risk worth taking!"
"Alright, let's do that. I will give you another month. If you don't kill them after a month, I will send my men to deal with them. In short, the two biggest secrets must belong to Witherbone City! "Scheer waved his hand and said," Alright, that's all for today. Sha-t 'o, please do your best. "
Sha-t 'o rose to his feet and returned to the Kiaran Residence without wasting any more time in the manor.
… …
The Ancient Lizard King, Dagassi, was walking towards the smelly building next to the Bone Refinery. Dagassi wore a helpless face and sighed all the way back. He did not know what to say after arriving at the building.
As a fellow traveler from Profound Continent, Dagassi felt very bad when he saw how the Han family was treated in the Kiaran Residence. However, Dagassi was just a lowly member of the Kiaran Residence. If it weren't for the fact that he was close to many members of the Han family, Sha-t 'o wouldn't have given him the task of delivering the message.
Statholme and Ayermike had heard of Dagassi back when they were on Profound Continent. They had heard a lot of unfavorable news from Dagassi. Although they were furious and dissatisfied with the House of Kiaran, they did not hold any grudges against Dagassi.
Statholme the old monster put on a bitter smile when he saw Dagassi walking towards them. He pretended to ask in a soft voice, "Haha, is there more news?" Statholme knew that Dagassi's visit was definitely not good news. He asked in such a manner so that Dagassi would not blame himself too much.
"Sigh, I really don't want to meet you here," Dagassi sighed. He continued, "Back in the City of Shadows, at least you were treated in a dignified manner. Brian was even more courteous to me. Now that you have come to the Kiaran Residence, not only can I not give you the same treatment, I have to make you suffer like this. Sigh, it's all because I'm too weak to say anything. Otherwise, things might be better … "
"This has nothing to do with you. Li Wei is the little princess of the Kiaran Residence. Her words are still useless. Sha-t 'o won't care about anyone's opinion when there's so much profit to be had. You don't have to blame yourself, "Ayermike replied. After a short pause, he asked," What's the bad news? "
"Some people deliberately let me eavesdrop on their conversation … Hill and the patriarch had a discussion today. Hill gave the patriarch a month's time. If the patriarch can't get what he wants from you after a month, they will kill you and take everything from your souls!" Dagassi sighed, his face full of pain.
"Let's fight them to the death!" Gilbert was enraged. He shouted, "They've gone too far! I have never seen anyone more shameless than them! Back when we first established a branch of Celestial Pearl Pharmacy in Witherbone City, they were the friendliest and most hospitable of us. Our Celestial Pearl Pharmacy has earned them countless black crystal coins. But now that we are in a disadvantageous position, they have changed their attitude. They are even more despicable than Hofs and Larikson. They are just as despicable as Wallace! "
"If this doesn't work, we can only fight them to the death!" Sanguis' eyes were bloodshot. He had been repressed the most during this period of time. He often had the urge to destroy something at all costs. However, Bollands stopped him every time and told him to endure it.
Sanguinar knew that the Han family would be done for if he took action. They were outsiders in Witherbone City. Although the Han family guards were powerful, without the support of top-notch experts, they would not be able to escape from the siege of Witherbone City's divine guards. In the end, they would all perish in Witherbone City.
The situation here was even worse than in the City of Shadows. Back then, Wallace had used a borrowed knife to kill the Han family because he was apprehensive of Han Shuo's relationship with the Overgod of Destiny. Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Wallace would not openly attack the Han family.
Hill and Sha-t 'o of Witherbone City thought nothing of the young Han Shuo. In their minds, Han Shuo was just a genius pharmacist. They were unaware of the relationship between Han Shuo and the Overgod of Destiny. If they were to attack Han Shuo, they would not hesitate to destroy the Han family.
"If we take the initiative, we can kill at least a few hundred of the House of Kiaran's divine guards! But of course, we will be dead for sure! Hmm, I think we should come up with a plan to kill as many members of the House of Kiaran as we can. Even if we are to die, we want our deaths to be worthwhile! "said Bollands calmly. However, his words revealed that he had truly lost all hope.
Bollands knew that the Han family had no hope of escaping alive. He believed that the only thing he could do now was to deal as much damage as possible to the Kiaran Family.
"No!" Cried Emily. She said, "Brian definitely doesn't want anything to happen to us. We can't be so impulsive!"
"Then what should we do?" Asked Gilbert. "We have no other way out. We are going to die either way. At the very least, we can't let them have an easy time!"
"Bollands, Sanguinar, Gilbert, the three of you know Brian's demonic formations the best. Prepare a copy of the demonic formations that the divine guards use," instructed Emily while enduring the pain in her heart.
"How, how can we do that?" Shouted Sanguinar, "They will never let us go. Even if we give them some, we won't be able to escape!"
"Dagassi, did you help us spread the news?" asked Emily. Instead of answering Sanguinar's question, she asked Dagassi.
"You gave me a million black crystal coins and I used them all. If he is still alive, he will receive the news sooner or later," Dagassi nodded and said with a bitter smile. He continued, "Hill, Sha-t 'o, and the others did not take Brian seriously at all. They did not restrict my actions at all."
Emily nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. She said to the party, "Let's buy as much time as we can. Let's hope that Brian can find us!"
