GDK 871: A demonstration of might
Han Shuo had slaughtered a bunch of experts as soon as he showed up. Those he killed were not Salas’ followers but innocent bystanders who wanted to leave the dangerous area.
The seventeen flying swords whistled and took a dozen or more lives just like that. Before the crowd could react, those innocent bystanders were turned into bloody liquid. Nothing of them was left.
This was the first time that Logue and Wasir had met Han Shuo. When they discovered that Han Shuo’s strength was unfathomably great, they grew hesitant. Instead of immediately joining hands with Salas to attack Han Shuo, they merely stood there and gaped.
“Hi, Bryan, long time no see. I have been tirelessly fighting Salas to keep your Pandemonium safe,” said Ossora with a faint smile.
Han Shuo, who had been wearing a chilling face since his appearance, finally determined that the Pandemonium had suffered only minimal damage and his consciousness sensed the life aura of the Five Elite Zombies. Han Shuo curled the corners of his lips and said to Ossora, “Thank you. I will remember this favor in my heart.”
“You are welcome, it’s no big deal,” replied Ossora courteously. In his mind, however, Ossora could not be happier. He thought that he had made Han Shuo’s presence in the Fringe beneficial to him.
After Han Shuo killed over a dozen of the spectators as a warning, not a single person dared move an inch. They gazed at Han Shuo’s majestic figure nervously.
Logue and Wasir were unable to determine Han Shuo’s true strength. They did not know if they should risk suffering injuries to assist Salas in fighting Han Shuo.
“Oi! Logue! Wasir! What is the meaning of this!” Salas cursed when he saw Logue and Wasir not honoring their promises, ”Where are your balls, you sons of bitches?! Fine, you don’t have to fight him. Just stop him from escaping while I kill him!”
An explosion of never-before-seen magnitude erupted. The earth cracked and two hills were instantly flattened. There was a burst of blinding light followed by an incomparably loud boom. It was as though the Apocalypse had arrived.
Other than Logue, Wasir, and Ossora who possessed overgod strengths, none of the spectators could see what happened. The blinding light and deafening rumble had caused everyone to temporarily lose both sight and hearing. They could only sense their surroundings through their souls.
A long while later, the light finally diminished and the dust settled.
Salas was heavily panting as he glared at the indifferent-demeanored Han Shuo. He said, “This will be all for today! But I’m not going to let you off! If I had not just fought Ossora, you would be dead already!”
Then, before Han Shuo could say a word, Salas turned into a lightning bolt and darted. He vanished in an instant, leaving his followers around the Pandemonium.
However, Han Shuo continued to stand his ground for he knew just how difficult it was to pursue an overgod expert fleeing with all his strength. Moreover. Rose, the Five Elite Zombies, and others happened to emerge from underground at this time. With Sovereign Logue and Wasir present, Han Shuo had to stay to ensure the safety of the Pandemonium and his people.
After coming to their senses, the spectators still couldn’t understand what happened during that immense burst of light. However, they saw Salas hastily leaving the area. There was only one conclusion they arrived at – Salas was afraid of Han Shuo!
Logue suddenly forced an awkward smile and said to Han Shuo, “Erm… I’m just going where the crowds are. I have no intention of making enemies!” Upon finishing those words, without waiting for a reply, he too hurried out of the Pandemonium.
Wasir did not say a word. He nodded at Han Shuo and left after Logue. They vanished in the blink of an eye.
“You may all leave now. I don’t like having unfamiliar faces around my Valley,” said Han Shuo as he gestured at the spectators, indicating for them to leave without delay.
“Erm, can, can we go as well?” asked one of Salas’ followers. They were still spooked.
“Leave. I don’t think that you will have a future under Salas. A Sovereign who would abandon his followers and leave them to fend for themselves is not worthy of followers. Just leave. I have no grudges with you,” said Han Shuo magnanimously. Han Shuo spared their lives simply because they were more useful alive than dead. After all, who could spread the story about his magnificence better than the survivors themselves?
All those followers of Salas bowed and thanked Han Shuo gratefully before they hastily left the Pandemonium.
***On a bald mountain a good distance from the Pandemonium stood a person. He said to himself, “Interesting, interesting. The Fringe has been peaceful for too long. It’s about time to get chaotic!” upon finishing those words, he vanished in a burst of destruction energy.
