Chapter 699 Surrounded by you all, how can I not see you off? "Um, um, I..." Blood Cloud Dao Lord stammered.
Seeing Xuexiao Daojun's stammering manner, Li Wensong knew he hadn't done it, and immediately gave a cold laugh.
"No wonder you ran away, you were afraid we would come looking for you because of this."
"Well, we can talk this over. It's not that I haven't done it, but I was just about to promote it. So could you give me a little time?" Blood Cloud Dao Lord scratched his head awkwardly. A peak Eternal Realm expert, he seemed a bit helpless, like a child who had just come of age.
There was nothing he could do. Surrounded by so many people at the Eternal Realm level, including three at the peak of the Eternal Realm, he was simply outmatched. If he were to be even slightly aggressive, he would likely be overwhelmed by their attacks in an instant.
The image of Lu Qing'an flashed through his mind; that battle had completely shattered his spirits. If he resisted now, and Lu Qing'an came looking for him in person, he wouldn't know who to turn to for help.
Li Wensong said, "Alright, alright. We didn't come here to punish you for this matter, but since you didn't do it, you have to work with us to get it done. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite."
Daoist Xuexiao quickly replied, "Alright, I'll listen to you, but you have to promise that you won't lay a hand on me."
Zhang Shundao laughed and said, "Blood Cloud Daoist, I remember you weren't this timid before. How come you've become more timid as you get older? You're making me laugh."
Blood Cloud Dao Lord looked at Zhang Shundao, feeling extremely aggrieved to see this top expert in the entire Nine Directions and Ten Domains mocking him like this.
You're talking like that because you've never fought that guy. If you switched places with me, you'd understand why I'm acting this way!
That guy was terrifying, he wasn't even human!
During this time, he kept thinking about what happened that day, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Who could contend with a peak Eternal Realm expert who possessed endless power of Dao Source? Moreover, the rules this person possessed seemed to be endless. It seemed that he knew all the rules that they knew. If he encountered such a person, even dozens of peak Eternal Realm experts would not be able to defeat him.
Daoist Xuexiao looked at Lianjie and transmitted his voice, "Is your situation the same as mine? Are you also being forced to go and promote that matter later?"
Lian Jie transmitted her voice, "I'm a little different from you. I'm a pawn, but I don't know if you are. However, it seems they really won't make a move against you. But as for the specifics, you'll have to leave it to fate and pray for your own good fortune."
Her relationship with Xuexiao Daojun was only so-so.
Having said that, we've already done everything we could to be considerate.
Blood Cloud Dao Lord's eyes darted around, then he nodded slightly, looking at Li Wensong and waiting for Li Wensong's next move.
Seeing that Daoist Xuexiao was so obedient and made no other move, Li Wensong didn't bother to say anything more. He quickly went to find the Lava Saint, gathered the three of them together, and then properly discussed the chess pieces and strategy with them!
"Let's go. Next step: find the Lava Saint."
"Looking for the Lava Saint? Actually, there's no need to look for him. I can tell him to come on his own. What do you think?" Blood Cloud Dao Lord asked hastily after hearing Li Wensong's words.
As he said this, he still had a fawning look on his face, clearly trying to please Li Wensong.
Seeing that Daoist Xuexiao was so perceptive, Li Wensong smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad. I like smart people. Since you're so smart, there's something I'd like to tell you."
"Speak freely!" Blood Cloud Dao Lord said with a smile.
“From now on, I’ll treat you as one of my own. But you need to do one thing: from now on, you have to call me Brother Song. What do you think?” A smug glint flashed in Li Wensong’s deep eyes.
Xuexiao Daojun carefully examined Li Wensong and sensed his cultivation level at the early stage of the Eternal Realm. He then pondered for a moment.
