Chapter 649: Professional Bulshitter


    Han Shuo, who had been sitting in silence for a long time, immediately stood up when the enormous internar transportation matrix next to him blossomed with dazzling white light. He ced his full attention on the internar transportation matrix.


    Han Shuo had waited for this moment for a very long time. He understood that the glowing of the internar transportation matrix indicated that those Cmity Church experts from the distant material ne would soon arrive.


    “Oh…? ” A gentle voice sounded from within the internar transportation matrix. The bright light dwindled to reveal two women and three men.


    The one standing at the forefront of the party was a lovely and beautiful woman in a navy blue dress. She had bright eyes and white teeth. Her body was bursting with an intense element of darkness that shone with alluring negative rays. From the terrifying aura that Han Shuo sensed on her body, he determined that she must be a midgod expert.


    Right behind the beautiful woman was a youngdy in a short, purple skirt. Her fine arms were as white as snow, her face was delicate and pretty, but her eyes appeared abnormally crafty. She cultivated in the element of death and possessed mid-stage lowgod strength. Standing behind the youngdy were two young men who cultivated in the edict of destruction. They had Herculean jawlines and possessedte-stage lowgod power as well.


    Thest person was a skinny old man who looked like he couldn’t lift a muscle. He cultivated in the elemental energy of death and roughly possessed the strength ofte-stage lowgod.


    The party of five consisted of a beautiful woman, a youngdy, an old man, and two youngsters. The woman was the only midgod of the lot, while the rest of them were lowgods. This filled Han Shuo’s heart with shock.


    The youngdy nced around before her gaze quickly fell on Han Shuo. “Tall guy, so you are the one who is supposed to wee us? Ha, why do you look so sluggish?!”


    “Li Wei, mind your words!” warned the woman, before walking out from the internar transportation matrix. She then said to Han Shuo, “Li Wei is a little mischievous, please don’t take offense.”


    By this point, Han Shuo had finally calmed down from the shock he received from their arrival. He put on a bright smile and said rxedly, “Wee to Profound Continent!”


    “A low-level material ne? Well this is going to be a bore!” Li Wei wrinkled her nose, stretched her body, and started looking all around. She seemed to be scanning for anything that might arouse her interest.


    “Li Wei, why don’t we go roam around and see if there’s anything fun on this low-level ne?” one of the youngsters cultivating in the edict of destruction suggested.


    “Sure! Let’s go!” Li Wei was delighted and immediately agreed.


    The beautiful woman furrowed her brows. “No one will separate from the group before we understand the circumstances.”


    Upon hearing those words, Li Wei shrugged at the young man and replied in azy voice, “Okay, I understand. Big sister Donna, you are so strict to us!”


    Donna smiled and replied, “We did note here for sightseeing or to have fun. Those fes might have arrived here long ago. Besides, if you were toe across them by yourself on this unfamiliar continent, you will surely be in great danger. We should first find out about the circumstances here before deciding our next course of action.”


    After sizing up the five and listening to their conversation for a while, Han Shuo could tell that the beautiful woman they called Donna ought to be the leader of the party. Han Shuo also noticed that the old man who cultivated in the element of death was staying silent the whole way through. His gazes towards Li Wei were filled with respect, as though he was her sworn servant. As for the two young men who cultivated in the edict of destruction, one of them was talkative while the other was taciturn.


    Donna hinted the party to hush before asking Han Shuo politely, “We don’t know that much about the circumstances on this continent. Do you mind giving us a brief introduction?”


    As Donna began to talk proper business, the other four stopped themselves being a nuisance. Their gazes simultaneously gathered on Han Shuo and silently waited for his insight.


    Facing the observative gazes of the five godly existences, Han Shuo put on a calm smile and said in an unruffled manner, “There is nothing special about the circumstances on this continent that warrant an introduction, not that you people would be interested anyway. But let me brief you on matters rted to the mission. The entrance to the underground world is located in a forest. The path to the bottommostyer is possessed by the race of Dark Dragons. I have very close rtions with the Dark Dragons and therefore it will not be a problem to figure out the path.


    Your enemies have arrived on this continent in advance. As to protect this internar transportation matrix, I currently have no clue of their position or actions. All I know is that one of them was from the Shrine of Ice, midgod realm… “


    Han Shuo skipped some of the trivial points and briefly described the most basic circumstances on the Profound Continent to the party.


    “Okay, that’s pretty detailed. Not bad,” Donna smilingly nodded. Right after, she changed her topic and asked, “Oh, right, what do I call you?”


    “Bryan,” replied Han Shuo.


    “Bryan, let me introduce you,” Donna smiling said as she turned her body to the side and pointed at the youngdy behind her, “This is Li Wei,te-stage lowgod of death. She is from the Kiaran family. That old man is a servant from her family who also possesseste-stage lowgod strength. His name is Colbert. The two brothers there are Bolten and Bowen. They are from the Brook family. As for me, I’m Donna. We will have to inconvenience you during our stay on this material ne.”


    Every time their names were mentioned by Donna, they would each nod at Han Shuo as a gesture of greeting. However, Han Shuo could tell that the party of five did not genuinely take Han Shuo as a matter. Their greetings were superficial and did note from their hearts.


    In their eyes, Han Shuo was a little god on a low-level material ne who didn’t carry much weight - a nonentity, a mere tour guide who was too inferior to make any great aplishment. It was only natural for them not to genuinely respect Han Shuo.


    Donna had made sure to note the family names of the other four but had missed out her own. This left Han Shuo somewhat puzzled. From what Han Shuo learned from Bechymos and the memories passed down by the original owner of the skeletal staff, he knew that the Overgods of Death and Destruction had close rtionships. There was nothing strange about Li Wei and the Brook brothers’ arrival.


    However, Donna, who obviously cultivated in the elemental energy of darkness, came here as the leader of the party. That had somewhat astonished Han Shuo. He thought to himself, <i><i>Could it be that the Overgod of Darkness is now mingling with the two evil Overgods?</i></i>


    While Han Shuo was in astonishment, Li Wei suddenly let out a gentle cry and arrived next to that ss container holding that sea monster. Excitedly, she looked at the sea monster in the form of a small octopus swimming lightheartedly about andughingly remarked, “Ha, what an ugly little fish! Intriguing!”


    As she spoke, she started getting rid of the boundaries Han Shuo deployed around it and attempted to take out and toy with that little octopus without the slightest scruple.


    “Do not touch it! It is not a pet!” Han Shuo furrowed his brows and lightly yelled out.


    It’s not that Han Shuo cared about the life or death of that sea monster. In any case, this ce was his turf and the sea monster could be considered as his property. For Li Wei to mess with his stuff without first seeking his consent was impudent behavior which rather displeased Han Shuo.


    “Just an ugly little fish, nothing valuable about it. Let me y with it!” Li Wei ignored Han Shuo’s words and was ready to remove the boundaries and pull out the sea monster.


    A shadow streaked through the room and arrived next to Li Wei in an instant. Before she could react, the ss container was already in Han Shuo’s hand. Han Shuo waved his hand and the boundary around the Cemetery of Death automatically opened a small seam. Immediately, he hurled the ss container outside. The ss broke apart halfway in its trajectory, freeing the sea monster who hastily scuttled to the sea.


    “Holy cow, what are they?! What a bunch of terrifying people!” the sea monster was trembling in fear as it sensed extremely formidable auras from Li Wei and the party. It rapidly sliced through the water and swam away.


    “Get lost! Go as far as you can. If you don’t want to die, you better leave this part of the ocean forever,” Han Shuo transmitted to the sea monster.


    Han Shuo had promised the sea monster that he would spare its life and he did not want to break that promise for Li Wei, especially when Li Wei showed no regards to him as the owner the property.


    “You… You grabbed my stuff?” Li Wei couldn’t react for a moment and murmured while looking at Han Shuo puzzlingly.


    “That thing was mine to begin with. It’s none of your business that I freed it,” Han Shuo said indifferently.


    Before Li Wei said a thing, that skinny old man had fixed his gloomy eyes on Han Shuo. He looked displeased.


    Meanwhile, Donna was looking at Han Shuo somewhat astonished. She was taken aback by his inhuman speed; he was so fast that even she momentarily couldn’t react. But what was even more shocking to her was - she did not sense Han Shuo utilize the energies of death or destruction!


    Donna’s curiosity for Han Shuo was officially piqued. When she saw Colbert’s gloomy gaze, she smilingly mediated, “It’s just a small fish, so what if it’s set free! Li Wei, as guests, we should act within the norms and not be rude!”


    Li Wei was originally in a bad mood. But after hearing Donna’s words, she acted as though nothing had happened and smilingly groaned, “What a stingy guy, hmph!”


    After Li Wei had spoken, Colbert again lowered his head and wore that lifeless appearance again.


    Bolten, the one who previously invited Li Wei to take a stroll around this world, mumbled to himself in a low voice, “Didn’t expect that someone from a low-level material ne would be this interesting!”


    “If you don’t mind, we can set off for the underground world right away,” Han Shuo said in aposed manner as though he did not hear what those people said and did not see the disdain in their eyes.


    “That would be great,” Donna dly agreed.


    “I shall lead the way.” Han Shuo must have been rather displeased on the inside, as he took them trekking from the Boundless Sea instead of using transportation matrices to get to the Dark Forest.


    Donna and her party naturally had no idea that Han Shuo had a much faster shortcut for reaching the Dark Forest by teleporting from the Cemetery of Death to Brettel City and Brettel City to Valen City. Therefore, they did not say much but followed behind him in flying straight for the Dark Forest.


    As they flew through the clouds en route to the Dark Forest, Donna seemed to be interested in getting to know Han Shuo better because of his peculiarity. She thought for a moment and asked, “By the way, how did you know that there was a midgod from the Shrine of Ice here?”


    “I have met him!” Han Shuo turned his head and smilingly answered. He was still polite towards Donna.


    “What a shameless lie. How could you still be alive if you met a midgod opponent? Especially when they know that you are in possession of that internar transportation matrix!” Li Wei disdainfully ridiculed. She seemed to be making reprisals for Han Shuo grabbing that sea monster from her just before.


    Despite Li Wei’s annoyance, however, she wasn’t as impulsive as she appeared on the surface. As she had to give Donna face, she did not burst into a rage on the spot but schemed on slowly taking her revenge.


    But Han Shuo’s tant im that he had met that midgod was just too ridiculous to believe!


    “Believe it or not!” Han Shuo smiled and gave a sinct reply. He had no intention of bickering with thatdy.


    Donna’s heart was also filled with amazement but she did not question the validity of Han Shuo’s words. Instead, she asked, “Where did you meet him? What exactly happened?”


    “I killed the nar Guardian of this ne and destroyed his internar transportation matrix. Then, as I was about to leave the boundary, I was trapped by that midgod. I nearly died from serious injuries while escaping from that boundary. It’s a pity that I was one step toote. If I had been there a few days earlier, they probably wouldn’t have made it there in the first ce!” Han Shuo said in a regretful manner.


    “Wha… What? You killed the nar Guardian here, and even destroyed his internar transportation matrix?” Even Donna couldn’t help but cry out in surprise and looked at Han Shuo up and down weirdly.


    “Haha, you managed to escape from the boundary of a midgod. You, sir, are a professional bullshitter! Hats off to you!” Bolten burst intoughter and said in an entric, condescending tone.


    Han Shuo forced a smile and shook his head. He did not exin any further.


    “Bryan, have you really destroyed the other internar transportation matrix? Are you absolutely certain of it?” Donna had a grave expression as she asked.


    “Of course!” Han Shuo said confidently, “If you don’t believe me, just ask one of them to go over there and take a look.”


    “No matter how you destroyed the other internar transportation matrix, if it’s true, then we will have the upper hand in this battle. Right, I will take note of this aplishment. Don’t worry, you will be rewarded well,” Donna was overjoyed at the unexpected good news. She did not expect to receive such wonderful news so soon after she arrived on this continent.


    This news meant that if anyone on Donna’s team was injured, they could quickly return home and even muster more experts over for assistance using the internar transportation matrix while those on the opposing team could not replenish their forces. They might even have to go through great difficulty in the return trip.


    Han Shuo shrugged and gave a bright smile. He did not boast about it or fawn over them. He appeared extremely rxed.


    Donna nodded in approval and immediately came to a much more favorable opinion of Han Shuo. She felt that although Han Shuo’s strength might be weak, his aspirations and bearings were out of the ordinary. With her beautiful eyes, she cast a re at Colbert who was beside Li Wei.


    Donna knew that although Li Wei was an insolent girl, she wasn’t one to hold grudges for long. Her house servant, Colbert, however, wasn’t as magnanimous. Donna felt that given Colbert’s strength, he could easily hand Han Shuo a painful lesson. Hence, Donna red at the old man to make sure that he wouldn’t do that.
