My gorgeous wife Chapter 2419 - 2387: Li Chen’s Confidence

The Dark Water Dao Saint comes from the Jiankong Realm.

In the Jianmu Universe, Dao Saint level experts are almost universally known in the Palm Realm. This is because the birth of each Dao Saint is considered a very significant event for the Jianmu Universe.

With every additional Dao Saint, it means that the foundation of the Jianmu Universe is even deeper.

Moreover, within the Jianmu Universe, Dao Saint level experts are prohibited from confronting each other with life and death unless under special circumstances. This is a rule set by the will of the Jian Ancestor long ago. Thus, the status of a Dao Saint in the entire Jianmu Universe is quite special.

Of course, even without the will of the Jian Ancestor, their status would still be special, just with fewer constraints.

"Are you sure you want me to speak?"

Li Chen pointed at himself, stepped out, and couldn’t help but ask again.

The Dark Water Dao Saint couldn’t help but frown. Are the young ones nowadays so disrespectful?

"That’s right, you speak!" The Dark Water Dao Saint said with some impatience.

"Alright then." Li Chen shrugged his shoulders and nodded, thinking to himself that among those present, his cultivation level was the lowest.

"I have a treasure they all want, so they all came here." Li Chen explained very concisely and clearly.

"Hmm?" The Dark Water Dao Saint raised a brow at this.

Clearly, Li Chen’s answer did not entirely satisfy him, but it was not important; this one sentence sufficiently explained the situation.

"Is it really as he says?" Of course, he wouldn’t just listen to Li Chen’s side; he also asked the others.

"Dark Water Sir, don’t listen to this kid’s nonsense!" At this time, Ren Si, the Ren Si Ancestor of the Heavenly Profound Sect, seized the opportunity to step forward and say, "This kid deceived and took away a large number of treasures from the major sects of the Nine Heavens Continent and then fled. Along the way, he also killed many strong sect members of the Nine Heavens Continent, so we chased him here."

As he spoke, Ren Si couldn’t help but glance at his own Great Elder.

However, this glance caused the Ren Si Ancestor to feel a chill in his heart.

Because Kong Xuanzi showed not the slightest reaction, and had no intention of supporting him.

The Dark Water Dao Saint glanced at the Ren Si Ancestor and said blandly, "Do you think I’m blind? If I remember correctly, wasn’t Tuo Hai a Loose Cultivator?"

"Moreover," the Dark Water Dao Saint pointed to two other Heaven and Earth Realm Ancestors, "Wu He, Jian Meng, are they also from your Nine Heavens Continent?"

Upon hearing this, the face of Ren Si Ancestor turned ugly: "Dark Water Sir, I..."

"Boom!!"

Before Ren Si Ancestor could finish speaking, he was struck by an invisible, terrifying force, his entire body flung out and seriously injured.

However, everyone present remained silent as cicadas in winter, including Kong Xuanzi, without anyone daring to utter a word.

This is the power of the Dao Saint level. They alone were utterly incapable of resisting.

This was the absolute disparity in strength.

At this moment, the Dark Water Dao Saint turned his gaze back to Li Chen: "So, the scent I sensed earlier also came from you? What treasure, take it out and let me have a look."

Hearing these words, everyone’s expression changed simultaneously, except for Li Chen.

They knew that if the Dark Water Dao Saint wanted to snatch it from them, they wouldn’t have any chance at all.

Yu Xiu’s expression remained relatively calm because, in his view, Li Chen was undoubtedly also a powerful Dao Saint. Moreover, after Li Chen’s earlier guidance, he could hold his own even against Kong Xuanzi, further understanding Li Chen’s strength.

However, Yu Xiu still had some hidden worries in his heart.

Because, last time on the Purple Fir Continent, it was because this Hong Chen Predecessor and the Leiyang Dao Saint fought that they almost destroyed the entire Purple Fir Continent.

At that time, it was Poem Shadow Dao Saint who intervened to control the situation.

But at that time, Poem Shadow Dao Saint also warned the Hong Chen Predecessor.

His concern was that if this time a major fight were to break out again with the Dark Water Dao Saint, Poem Shadow Dao Saint might be drawn out again.

If that were the case, it would be a huge trouble.

For in the entire Jianmu Universe, while other Dao Saint experts might have their strengths and weaknesses, there was no doubt that Poem Shadow Dao Saint was the strongest.

Once Poem Shadow Dao Saint was drawn into the fray, it would be hard for anyone to bear the consequences.

And Li Chen’s next reaction was just as Yu Xiu anticipated; he did not yield merely because the opponent was a Source Mastery Realm Saint, but instead, with a calm expression, he spoke, "Take it out for you to see? Why should I show you my belongings?"

"Unless, you think being a Dao Saint entitles you to do whatever you want?" Li Chen’s lips curled into a peculiar smile.

The atmosphere on site became rather stiff.

If Li Chen sensibly handed over the treasure, there would be no issue; even if there was, nobody would speak of it.

But some issues, once mentioned, become rather awkward.

The current situation was that the Dark Water Dao Saint wanted to take something from Li Chen, but clearly, Li Chen was not willing to give it up.

So now, was it the case where a Dao Saint was trying to rob a small Domain Realm cultivator of their possession?

The Heaven and Earth Realm Ancestors wore peculiar expressions, and the atmosphere became somewhat stagnant with the oddness.

Because they saw the face of the Dark Water Dao Saint growing increasingly shadowed.

A foolish youth who dared to defy even a Dao Saint, truly courting death!

Many couldn’t help but curse in their hearts. In this way, not only would the treasure be lost, but perhaps even his life.

Only the Camel Terrors Ancient Ancestor subconsciously edged back a bit, having attacked Li Chen earlier and thus being the first to sense something was amiss.

A mere Domain Realm, how could he have such confidence to defy a Dao Saint’s face?

Was he truly insane?

Yet even if he were insane, was Yu Xiu also mad to follow him?

The Camel Terrors didn’t believe it, instead becoming increasingly wary, as though ready to flee at any moment.

The Dark Water Dao Saint wasn’t far into the Palm Source Realm, compared to when Li Chen encountered the Demon Saint of Qingqiu, not too different in level, even weaker in strength.

If his cultivation was a bit higher, perhaps Li Chen might truly heed him.

But this level of Dao Saint, Li Chen had the confidence... to directly soul annihilate him!

Though such an attack would require some time for recovery, his cultivation had grown significantly stronger since before, needing less time for recovery now.

Yet, at this moment, Li Chen still didn’t want to make a move.

Blinking his eyes, Li Chen looked up into the void.

"You lot, you’ve watched the play for long enough, shouldn’t you come out now? Or do you intend to just watch me being bullied by the Dark Water Dao Saint?"

"Cough, cough, Brother Red Dust misunderstood, we simply didn’t want to disturb your fun,"

From the void came a somewhat awkward chuckle as an old man with crane hair and a childlike face suddenly appeared in the sky.

Li Chen nodded with a smile: "We meet again, Daoist Friend of Qingqiu."
