Han Sen and Xie Qing King were not sneaky in their approach of the shelter . Fearlessly, they waltzed before its gate . Before they had come, though, they had made stops at twelve of Holy-Sword Emperor's other shelters, including Sword-Palace Shelter . They were each claimed, resulting in the destruction of Holy-Sword Emperor's son's spirit stone, too .
Holy-Sword Emperor knew they were a force to be reckoned with, so his first idea was to run . But with his spirit stone embedded in his shelter, he knew fleeing would be futile .
"Xie Qing King, I won't forgive you for this!" Holy-Sword Emperor exclaimed, before running towards his treasury .
He opened the vault, and with great care, opened a certain metal box that was within . He picked something up, his expression emotional and complex .
Han Sen was a little disheartened . Initially, he had only wanted to come straight to this shelter, so he could slay Holy-Sword Emperor and be done with the primary local threat .
But Xie Qing King had told him that to preserve their honor, Han Sen would have to take down all of Holy-Sword Emperor's lesser shelters before tackling the big one .
"Why is he just destroying all the spirit stones? Can't he save some for me?" Han Sen wondered to himself .

Xie Qing King was nabbing all the glory, leaving only the bones for Han Sen to pick through . All he was able to get was the flesh of sacred-blood creatures, and that was only because Xie Qing King did not need or want any himself .
Han Sen swore to never fight with him again, unless it was an emergency . He was too arrogant and selfish, he thought .
If Han Sen was strong enough, he might even have tried to kill him .
As disappointing as all this was, though, he couldn't deny how good it felt . There he was, in the Third God's Sanctuary, steamrolling through a multitude of shelters as if it were no more difficult than a Sunday drive . With no force able to oppose the duo, it felt pretty good .
Bao'er had also accompanied Han Sen, and she was sitting upon his shoulder . In her hands, she played with the bird-fish thing .
Now, they were marching directly before Holy-Sword Shelter . Standing before its gates, Xie Qing King yelled, "Hey, yo! I am the Super Emperor, and I am the one who knocks . . . because I'm polite . Of course, if you keep this gate shut, I'll just have to tear the gate down . It's in the way of me killing you . That being said, if you'd like to concede, you may . "
If there was anyone else around, Han Sen would pretend he did not know him .
Xie Qing King was obviously having fun, though . He made another strange gesture and said, "I'm-a give you fifteen minutes to decide, punk . If you want mercy, you better get out here . "

Han Sen spent that time observing the shelter that was before him . He couldn't help but admire the grandeur of the place . It was a massive walled city . But it was disturbingly quiet . There was no noise coming from beyond the gate, and there seemed to be no creatures manning the ramparts or watchtowers .
Han Sen used his Dongxuan Aura to scan the area, and that was when he saw Holy-Sword Emperor, standing above the gate .
A hundred-meter-tall creature stood behind the king spirit .
In the sky, there was an ape flying around with bat wings . It was like a creature risen from the pits of hell . Or Oz .
"Xie Qing King, we are both king spirits here . There is no need to take things to such extremes," Holy-Sword Emperor began a speech .
Although Han Sen's golden raven was strong, he wasn't entirely sure it'd be enough to take on Holy-Sword Emperor or his pets .
He couldn't kill a fully-healed Xie Qing King, either .

In response to Holy-Sword Emperor, Xie Qing King immediately said, "Cut the crap, fool! You either fight me like a man or get down on your knees . "
"Fine . But let it be on your head . " Holy-Sword Emperor started his signature move . A thousand swords rose from his hands, and he sent them all flying down towards Xie Qing King .
Xie Qing King then said, "That old chestnut? Oh, please!"
Xie Qing King threw a punch and generated a shockwave that knocked all the swords away . The entire skill was canceled by that single throw of a fist .
Roar! The hundred-meter-tall beast leaped down towards Xie Qing King and Han Sen .
In that creature's mouth, Han Sen saw something swirl . It was like a blood-red sea . If he was sucked into that vortex, he didn't fancy his chances of survival very much .
Han Sen received Brother Seven's information, so he already knew what to expect from the two super creatures of the shelter .
"Then we fight to our deaths, I take it?" Xie Qing King leaped into the sky with a silver light and threw a punch towards the super creature before him .
The hit landed, and it sent the super creature reeling backwards in agony . As it suffered the power of that blow, it screamed in pain . Still, it tried to use its talons to grab Xie Qing King's head .
Xie Qing King threw an uppercut towards the incoming talons, eliminating its advance and giving the monster very sore fingers . The punch was stronger than the monster's attack had been, and the additional force sent the creature flying away .
The other super creature swooped down with its bat wings to attack Xie Qing King, but it was a futile attack . Xie Qing King was so fast, he even had the time to reapply gel on his hair .
Seeing this, Han Sen felt another stabbing cringe . Xie Qing King was now like a slut, reapplying makeup and pushing up her boobs before meeting new clientele .
Xie Qing King knocked away the airborne monkey, and with the coast clear, Han Sen took off running to get Holy-Sword Emperor's spirit stone .
Holy-Sword Emperor saw this, and so he quickly fired his swords Han Sen's way .
Han Sen transformed into a black raven . He was enveloped in a raging fire, which accelerated his pace . He effortlessly evaded the barrage of swords that were coming for him .
All the swords were broken and burnt . They smoldered and melted inside the ruthless flames that were left in Han Sen's wake .
"You took advantage of my injuries the last time we met, human . Do you think you can defeat me this time?" Holy-Sword Emperor looked enraged, and he drew out a single, menacing greatsword .
