"I'm afraid those people will come looking for us. I think you should stay here for now, and don't go back to the shop," Yang Han said.
"Don't worry, Grandpa Yang. Who would come looking for us? They don't even know where we are," Megan Rain replied with a smile.
"You don't understand. These cultivators are truly powerful; they have abilities that we ordinary people can't even imagine," Yang Han explained.
Seeing how worried Yang Han was, Megan Rain nodded and said, "Alright, I'll listen to you, Grandpa Yang. I'll stay here."
Time passed quickly. Most of the day went by as Yang Han and Megan Rain stayed inside. Yang Han pretended to sleep, but his Divine Sense was monitoring outside. The seven cultivators searched everywhere, even asking around, and eventually found their way to the shop.
The shop was in chaos. The seven cultivators insisted on seeing Megan Rain, and finally, under threat of death, a waiter revealed Megan's whereabouts. Yang Han was shocked and quickly opened his eyes.
Seeing Yang Han open his eyes, Megan Rain asked, "Grandpa Yang, you're awake?"
"Shh. There are people outside," Yang Han whispered.
Megan Rain was puzzled—how did Yang Han know there were people outside? Yang Han turned to her and said, "Looks like we can't escape. They're here."
The seven cultivators had already arrived at the door. One of them shouted from outside, "You two, come out. No need for us to invite you, right?"
On the other side, Yang Han was watching the soul in the Soul-Reaping Water and smiled, "I know why you came."
Impossible. There's no way you could know," he said.
Nothing is impossible. You came here to find someone, and that person is sealed inside another's body, holding a divine bow, am I right?" Yang Han described Megan Rain in detail.
Sure enough, the man was shocked. "How do you know?"
I told you, I know everything. And the person you're looking for—I know where she is." Yang Han smiled.
You... The man was stunned, surprised Yang Han knew so much.
To be honest, your seven companions are all dead—killed by the woman holding the divine bow." Yang Han said.
After hearing this, the man was stunned. "What? She appeared?"
Yes, she appeared—nearby. But I'm curious, who is she that you eight came to find her?" Yang Han asked.
She's the strange woman the Nether Sky Realm has been hunting," the man replied.
Strange woman? How strange?" Yang Han asked, curious.
Anyway, they're all dead, so it doesn't matter if I tell you. She's known as the Divine Sharpshooter—mainly because she wields a powerful artifact bow. Unfortunately, she was alone and couldn't withstand the pursuit of the Ten Nether Sky Kings. Her body was destroyed, but her soul escaped with the bow. After much research, the Nether Sky Realm finally determined where she might be, so we came to look for her—and we actually found her. Damn, wasn't she supposed to be asleep?" the man said, incredulous.
A sleeping person, once awakened, is terrifying. You underestimated her." Yang Han said, surprised after hearing her story.
Damn it," the man said, unwilling to accept it.
Actually, don't worry about it. You'll die at her hands too," Yang Han smiled.
I'll die at her hands? Impossible!" the man protested.
Of course. You tossed her around, and finally enraged her. So you should understand." Yang Han smiled.
Thinking that the woman was the Divine Sharpshooter he was tracking, the man was stunned.
Didn't expect things to turn out this way," the man regretted.
Alright, regret is useless now. Your companions are all dead, so think about your own situation. How about it? Tell me how to get to the Nether Sky Realm." Yang Han smiled.
I told you, I won't tell you—no matter what," the man said firmly, then fell silent.
Yang Han had no choice but to put him away, bored enough to listen to Bloodfiend's opinion. Bloodfiend laughed, "So she's the Divine Sharpshooter—I knew she wasn't ordinary."
You know her?" Yang Han asked.
Of course. She was famous in the Chaos World, but somehow offended the Nether Sky Demon King. Later, she was hunted by the Ten Nether Sky Kings. What happened after that, I don't know," Bloodfiend said.
So that's how it is," Yang Han muttered.
Alright, enough about others. You should find something to restore your seed," Bloodfiend said.
If I could restore it, of course I'd want to. But right now, as you can see..." Yang Han said awkwardly.
Think of a way. Maybe she can help you," Bloodfiend said.
Her? How is that possible?" Yang Han asked suspiciously.
If she's willing to pour her power into your body, your Heaven-Cold Seed will be activated and you'll naturally recover," Bloodfiend said.
She doesn't know when she'll erupt—and even if she does, she might not recognize me. So I have no chance.' After hearing Bloodfiend's suggestion, Yang Han sighed helplessly.
You'll have a chance soon. Didn't two people escape? They're definitely contacting the Nether Sky Demon King. They'll try to find her, and she alone might not be able to defeat those Nether Sky Demon Kings," Bloodfiend said.
As long as those Nether Sky Demon Kings don't come, she'll be fine," Yang Han said.
That's true. Her power—at least several Nether Sky Demon Kings would be needed to take her down. But if she's in a normal state, even ordinary cultivators could kill her and she'd be doomed," Bloodfiend said.
She's not that fragile, is she? She has an artifact," Yang Han smiled.
