Chapter 537 - The Luke Family’s Pursuit

Back in his room, Han Wu instructed his Merge Avatar to drop everything and prioritize merging as many crystals as possible. At the same time, the Refiner worked without pause to churn out Light Stones at full capacity.

Every unit in his divine realm worked hard to assist in the production. More than 2000 crystals were produced in just one night, but that wasn’t enough.

At that rate, it would take him at least fifteen days to fulfill Aisha’s condition—longer than the contract allowed. If Han Wu didn’t fulfill the White Mane God King’s demands, Jiang Ming would be taken away.

Unwilling to accept that outcome, he resolved to find another solution. Han Wu had numerous avatars at his disposal and could be in multiple different locations at the same time. In other words, he could easily leave a single avatar in the Angel Civilization, while the other avatars moved the Angel Elixirs back to the Divine Civilization.

This, however, hinged on Aisha’s approval. Still, there was no harm in proposing it.

After gathering up the merged crystals, Han Wu paid a visit to the Elden family. Aisha granted him an audience and was happy to receive the 2000 crystals.

Though the crystals weren't useful to her personally, they were indispensable for two-winged and four-winged angels. If each angel in her family had a crystal, the Elden family would grow stronger by leaps and bounds. They could even gain more six-winged angels in the process.

Satisfied, Aisha ordered the butler to prepare the money. Han Wu received Luminous Pink Diamonds worth 160,000 Divine Essence. He was finally rich again.

Nevertheless, the purpose of this visit was to propose his plan to her. She ruminated on it for a long while. After carefully mulling it over, she pulled out a contract. This was to prevent Han Wu from going back on his word. If he broke the contract, all his avatars would be destroyed, regardless of where they were.

Han Wu had never even considered breaking his word and so had no concerns about signing the contract.

Aisha was overjoyed. After giving him the supply of Angel Elixirs, she ordered the butler to form a battalion of angel escorts to guard Han Wu as he left the Angel Civilization.

Of course, with the two civilizations at war, Aisha couldn’t fully guarantee Han Wu’s safety. Han Wu naturally understood. Once he left the Holy City, his safety would be his responsibility.

As a precaution, he also summoned his idle avatars to come to the Angel Civilization as soon as possible.

His Dark Aspect Avatar and Replicate Avatar both made their way back to the Divine Civilization with the escort that same afternoon. Meanwhile, his Light Aspect Avatar and Famine Avatar remained in Yenom.

Despite having someone keep tabs on Han Wu, Hans Luke was ignorant of Han Wu’s many avatars. He was thus only aware that Han Wu had employed a group of angels to transport something important out of the Angel Civilization.

Unwilling to take any chances, he ordered all eleven Fallen Angels to ambush him together.

This time, they were to rob Han Wu instead of targeting his life. As long as Hans could seize Han Wu’s cargo, he would naturally have a hold over him.

The Fallen Angels moved out two hours after Han Wu’s departure. Their speed made it incredibly easy for them to catch up, but they weren’t in any hurry to attack.

Hans had instructed them to be extremely careful when they acted, as they couldn’t afford to let Aisha stop them again. So, they planned to wait at least two days before attacking. That way, it wouldn’t matter if Aisha wanted to help; she simply wouldn’t make it in time.

The eleven Fallen Angels silently tailed the angel escorts for two days before finally ambushing them in a canyon. The skies changed colors as energies of different attributes rained down.

All eleven Fallen Angels were on par with Earthsunder life forms and had flawless coordination from training with each other from a young age. Their strength was also boosted after using an array. Except for a situation where the array was completely neutralized, it would take a Heavenrender life form to stop them.

The angel escorts naturally didn’t have anything capable of dealing with the array. The captain of the escort was a six-winged angel on par with an Earthsunder life form, but even he was powerless against the eleven Fallen Angels.

He resisted their attacks with his powerful Light Energy, but was soon injured and couldn’t fight back. Unexpectedly, the Fallen Angels didn’t go in for the final blow but instead attacked the flying chariot.

The powerful blow destroyed the chariot, forcing several figures out of it. The Dark Aspect Avatar, the Replicate Avatar, Bart, and Akanzor all shot out from the chariot, each carrying some Angel Elixirs.

When the Fallen Angels saw this, they couldn’t help but feel as though they had fallen for a trap.

They had assumed that the one left behind in Yenom was fake and the one they were targeting was real, but seeing two Han Wus, they couldn’t help but wonder if they had it backward.

Han Wu, however, wasn’t going to be the one to tell them that they were all real.

As his eyes swept over the heavily injured angel escorts and the destroyed chariot, a fury rose up within Han Wu’s heart. He glared murderously at the eleven Fallen Angels.

The eleven Fallen Angels were undoubtedly similar to the one he had killed before. In other words, they were all assassins from the Luke family.

“Since the Luke family intends to target me, I won’t hold back,” he muttered.

Activating Replicate, his body shriveled up into an old man, but his strength soared to the Earthsunder rank.

The Dark Aspect Avatar activated his powers and used Black Dragon King Transformation, a power with high compatibility with his Dark Aspect. The avatar was just a step away from becoming an Earthsunder life form.

Han Wu’s Black Dragon King Transformation also granted him traits of a Great Dragon, which meant regular Sage life forms couldn’t defeat him. It would take an Earthsunder life form to do so.

The Replicate Avatar and Dark Aspect Avatar worked together to release a dark thread made from dense Dark Energy, drawing a visible connection between them. The two became stronger as they shared powers.
