My gorgeous wife Chapter 2420 - 2388: Gathering of Dao Saints
Previously on My gorgeous wife...
Brother Red Dust!
Daoist Friend of Qingqiu!
Upon hearing these two titles, even the Dark Water Dao Saint could not help but change his expression.
Perhaps he could disregard the Ancestor Yu Xiu with the Broken Blade, but for a powerful being like the Demon Saint of Qingqiu, it was hard not to pay attention.
After all, this was a demon saint even more powerful than him!
The last time he saw the Demon Saint of Qingqiu was over fifty million years ago. And now, fifty million years later, Dark Water Dao Saint sensed a faintly stronger aura from the Demon Saint of Qingqiu than before.
Yet such a powerful Palm Source Realm Powerhouse called the white-haired young man... brother?
Addressing among Dao Saints is not done casually; if the Demon Saint of Qingqiu calls him ’brother’, he either owes him a great favor or recognizes that the other is stronger than himself!
But how could this be?
He has been active in the Jiankong Realm, yet he had never heard of a white-haired Dao Saint appearing!
Dark Water Dao Saint’s expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
Because Dao Saint powerhouses are not easy to offend.
Earlier, his words to Li Chen clearly ignored the other’s status. Can someone of this level truly endure such disrespect?
Even if he could endure it, given his inexplicable relationship with the Demon Saint of Qingqiu, what if the Demon Saint of Qingqiu decides to act against him?
Dark Water Dao Saint suddenly felt a sense of having tried to gain something only to end up losing more.
But Li Chen, after exchanging polite words with the Demon Saint of Qingqiu, no longer looked at him and instead turned his gaze to the void ahead.
"Everyone, since you’re here, do I need to invite each of you out?"
More people?
Dark Water Dao Saint couldn’t help but feel his heart jump.
To think that even the Demon Saint of Qingqiu had not noticed, and it was only when the white-haired youth spoke that he realized there were others hiding around.
At this point, Dark Water Dao Saint no longer doubted that this white-haired youth was a disguised Dao Saint.
Not just a Dao Saint, but likely one stronger than himself!
"Hahaha, Daoist friend’s strength truly is extraordinary; no wonder even Old Lei suffered a loss at Daoist friend’s hands." A voice laughed, revealing a small, aging man with a straw hat and dressed like an old fisherman, smiling as he appeared.
"Since I’ve been seen through, continuing to hide would be a disgrace." A sinister youth with blood-ink pupils and deep blue long hair also stepped out, shaking his head with a light laugh.
Besides the two, another direction also saw three people stepping out.
Unlike the two solitary powerhouses, behind the three were groups of people, each one being a Soul Realm powerhouse!
"It’s really lively!" A boisterous laugh echoed: "How could I, Old Lei, be absent from such a lively scene?!"
A robust middle-aged man stepped out, it was the Leiyang Dao Saint!
Suddenly, the atmosphere became somewhat strange.
Not for any other reason, this time, although the number of Palm Realm powerhouses appearing was less than the last at Purple Fir Continent, the number of Dao Saints was greater!
Including Li Chen, there were exactly eight Palm Source Realm powerhouses present!
Dao Saint powerhouses are always strategic forces, rarely seen by ordinary cultivators, let alone appearing together.
Having two or three Dao Saints appear publicly is already a major event, let alone now, where as many as eight have emerged at once!
Counting Li Chen, that makes nine Dao Saints!
Such a force could potentially destroy any force within a universe that considered itself invincible.
"Leiyang, you came too?" The sinister youth with blood-ink pupils looked at Leiyang Dao Saint with some surprise.
"Can you all come and I can’t come see my good brother?" Leiyang laughed boldly.
With that, Leiyang laid his cards on the table.
Li Chen was his brother; today, anyone wanting to harm him would first have to get past Old Lei.
It’s only been around ten years since their last meeting, and he hasn’t forgotten how Li Chen, possessing greater strength than himself, didn’t show arrogance but instead shared treasures with them. Due to this, his cultivation advanced a bit further; though not much, even minor progress is incredibly challenging for a Dao Saint.
That seemingly insignificant favor helped him greatly!
This brother, Leiyang acknowledged!
Leiyang firmly believed Li Chen didn’t share treasures out of pressure.
Remember, he’s someone who dared to argue with Poem Shadow Dao Saint and left her speechless.
Would such a being truly share treasures out of hollow reasons?
Not only did Leiyang and Yu Xiu think so, but those present, including Qingqiu, all thought the same.
Their belief was based solely on the fact that Li Chen dared to roar at Poem Shadow Dao Saint.
This kind of boldness earned their total respect.
Since the departure of the last potential Founding Realm powerhouse in Jianmu Universe, it’s been ages since anyone dared speak to Poem Shadow Dao Saint like that.
In Jianmu Universe, she’s the representative chosen by Jian Ancestor, and undoubtedly the strongest within!
This strength isn’t just words but accumulated from countless battles over the ages.
"In that case, there’s no need for more words." At this point, the old man in straw clothing slowly spoke: "Leiyang, Qingqiu, your cultivations have inexplicably improved over the past few years, I think you can’t deny this, right? Denial is useless, because besides you there are those like Yu Xiu."
The Demon Saint of Qingqiu’s expression twitched, responding in a deep voice: "What’s this have to do with you?"
Though Qingqiu might be somewhat cunning, as a Dao Saint, he has his pride; where’s the reasoning in being interrogated?
"Hehehe!"
At this moment, one of the three Dao Saints with a group around them chuckled: "I think Qingqiu might not know that your Dao Brother went through several tribulations consecutively at Purple Fir Continent after you parted, right?"
"This ’Secular Taoist Friend’ is really amusing, feigned cultivation, even faking tribulations," another slowly remarked.
Upon hearing this, the faces of all present turned strange.
Even Li Chen couldn’t help but furrow his brow slightly.
