Chapter 355
Taurus watched Han curiously and he wondered what Han was thinking. Han was standing very still as he looked at Taurus with a contemplative gaze and for some reason, that gaze annoyed Taurus. It was like Han was laughing at him in his head! Taurus didn’t know that Han was laughing at him in his head! Han just couldn’t believe he saw a real young master!
Han finally managed to stop his mirth as he decided to ask another important question. Even if he is having fun, Han needs to get serious. Right now the thing that he was most interested in was what exactly this idiot is doing here. It is rare to see a celestial in the temple for any reason! And it is even rarer for them to start cultivating people and using them as a source of energy to train! Is it really that easy for the celestials to come to the temple? There is no way that the Celestials can just keep coming here with no restrictions!
Han needed to know how the hell the celestials were coming to the temple so easily. Is there some sort of shortcut that Han can take to leave this temple? The celestials have been coming and going like it’s nothing!
“How did you come to the temple?”
Question after question after question! Taurus was getting annoyed! It was like the only thing Han was saying to him so far have been questions! Does this man not fear a Celestial!? Or is he just too stupid to realize who I am!? How dare he ask me so many questions!? The only thing I need from him is his subservience and if he keeps asking these questions then I will just kill him and move on!
Taurus has only been second to his father in the celestial plane and ever since then, his ultimate goal has been to grow stronger than his father. The Xian didn’t interact much with other races since they were used to living in seclusion so Taurus never bothered with them! Taurus has been in this closed-door training for up to fifty years so he has no idea who Han is and he has not learned anything about the rumors going around the temple! Taurus does not know that Han has the system of the binary king! Right now Taurus was too confident in his ability to win against Han! He was sure that no mortal can ever be as strong as he or his father!
And that was the only reason why Taurus entertained the questions that Han was asking. Taurus thought that even if Han knew everything there was to know about him, there is no chance of him escaping! How can a mere mortal escape from me? I’ll answer him if he is so curious about his future master. It is boring to have a silent servant and someone like him will make a very good servant for me.
“I came here through Dorea’s gates. It has been about fifty years but there is a woman capable of opening a gate directly to the Celestial plane. She is just a mortal but she was granted the position of a Celestial for reasons beyond my knowledge. I feel she should have been made a slave, but I was not the one in charge of her indoctrination. I can give you a higher position than her if you wish, I can sense that you have quite a lot of power inside you. Far more than her. All you need to do is follow me,”
Han’s eyes widened in happiness once he heard Dorea’s name. It has been a while since he heard anything about her and just hearing her name made him happy. He couldn’t help the smile that appeared on his face because of her and Taurus misinterpreted the smile to mean that Han was now happy with the answers he got.
Good, this should be the end of it. Now he has no reason to refuse me.
“Now that you have your answers, you have to become my subordinate. You cannot know all of these things and walk away from here scot-free. Your knowledge is not something a mortal should possess,”
There was a period of silence in the area as Taurus looked down on Han with cold eyes. Han wasn’t even looking at Taurus as he thought about what he needed to do next. Han wanted to see Dorea, in fact, Han wanted to see all his wives. Han had an idea about what he needed to do but it would be a bit risky for Dorea if Han does this recklessly! Han hummed as he thought about it. It might just work. Han couldn’t go himself, so he just had to borrow someone else’s face.
“Okay, I’ve made up my mind.”
Taurus heard Han say this and he nodded as he thought that Han finally agreed to become his subordinate and he was about to start walking away. At least Han wasn’t a fool. It would be foolish of him to refuse an offer like that. But then the sky started to darken and Taurus looked up in surprise. What!? He looked back at Han again and he saw that Han’s hand was raised! What is this idiotic mortal doing!? Do you think any of your paltry skills will be enough to stop me!? I can decimate you with just one technique!
Han could see the disbelief in Taurus’ eyes and he spoke with a smile.
“I will become your subordinate only if you live. It will be a bit embarrassing if your own subordinate is stronger than you so this is necessary. Don’t blame me for being rude, young master”
[Laser Beam] has been activated
A giant magic circle opened up above Taurus’ head and Taurus laughed as he nodded! Yes, this subordinate is very interesting! To think that he would try to test his master like this! Well, I shouldn’t be shocked! If you want a wise subordinate then this is the least you should expect. It will only take force for them to accept you as their master! Let me show this mere mortal the power of a celestial!
[Azure Dragon: Ten Thousand Scales] Defensive technique has been activated!
A large image of a dragon appeared around Taurus and he folded his arms calmly as he smiled at Han. There is no way that your silly skill can pass through the might of my technique. Taurus was still gloating but he suddenly looked up again when another magic circle appeared! Taurus blinked in surprise. Two? W-Well that is to be expected from my subordinate. I’m sure he would not be so weak that he can only make one!
Another circle appeared and Taurus’ eyes widened!
Three!?
Another circle appeared!
And another one!
And another one!
By the time the circles stopped, there were no less than ten circles in the sky and all of them were aimed down at Taurus. Taurus looked at Han again and he saw Han smiling at him with that same condescending look in his eyes! Who is this mortal!? How does he have so much power!? If this hits… Will I die? No. That’s impossible. I am a Celestial. We are immortals and there is no way I can die at the hands of a mere mortal. Unless it is one of the leaders of the Celestials that is attacking me then there is no way I can be killed like that! Ha! I shouldn’t be worried at all! It is not like it is the binary king himself that is attacking me!
Taurus released a loud bark of laughter and his smug attitude became more intense!
“Do your worst, my subordinate! I can see that you will be the best servant I ever had!”
Han laughed as well! And he released the skills! There was no sound after Han released the skill. For more than five seconds the only thing that existed was white noise that made your ears ring with that constant whine deep inside your brain.
The woman that brought Han here was done puking out her stomach and she cleaned her mouth with a grimace as she looked to the side to see the giant magic circles releasing their full power on top of her master! The low whine that rang in her ear only lasted for a few seconds before a massive soundwave slammed into her!
Ka-Boommm!!!!
The sound wave blew her back for meters and she screamed as she was blown around like a rag doll! I’m going to die! I’m definitely going to die!! What did I do to deserve this!!?
“Up you go,”
But before she could die, a hand grabbed her by the scruff of her dress and hoisted her up. She was breathing heavily and her entire body was dirty. Luckily, she was strong enough to withstand flying around like that and she didn’t have many injuries! She looked up and she saw Han watching the explosion with an impassive stare. Is he the one that did that!? The same man that I tried to fight!? What sort of monster did I find on this floor?
But he saved me? Why? Don’t tell me… Did he fall in love with my heavenly beauty!?
Han had no idea the stupid thoughts going through her head and he just watched the explosion. There is no way the young master is surviving through this. I leveled this skill to the max inside my [Shadow World] and it is twice as strong as before. If he survives, I’ll be fucking shocked.
The woman Han saved had a giant blush on her face as stupid thoughts ran through her head. Ah~ I-I’m sure he is in love with me! What do I do? What do I do!? I don’t like him like that! Should I try to let him down easy? W-Well he isn’t too bad looking, maybe I should just play with him a bit and then leave him. Hehe~ She giggled perversely and Han looked down with a deadpan. What the hell is wrong with this one?
