Chapter 1253: Covet My Body (III)
Li Hao had never suppressed the development of martial dao among the people. On the contrary, he constantly promoted it and shared everything that he learned. There were at least one billion cultivators in the world these days.
When so many cultivated, there were bound to be a few geniuses that appeared. Li Hao didn’t seek to keep those geniuses down either. As such .they improved at a rapid pace.
There were many opportunities to be had in the world these days. First, the Forbidden Sea was active, then the world revitalized, then came the demise of Saints and a subsequent dispersion of energy.
Power from the great dao was readily available in the environment as well. Various martial dao academies had been established for a solid education. One could earn energy stones through being part of the infrastructure workforce...
All components of modern society were to facilitate the development of martial dao. The new dao had become mainstream in the world.
“There’s no need to pay me empty flattery, none of that’s important!” Li Hao smiled. “Not to mention, it’s just mutual benefit. I gave them chances and they’ve also helped me quite a few times. Whether it’s to kill Empyrean Kings, Saints, or the heavenly will—the people’s hearts can be used!
“Much of it also has to do with you guys spreading my name and feats far and wide, making me out to be larger than life. You don’t actually have to do that, you know. But since the people did end up helping me a few times, I won’t pretend that those actions didn’t help me in the end.”
If it wasn’t for the people’s support, it wouldn’t have been that easy to take down these Saints. He’d killed twelve Saints in one battle! Would he have been able to do so if the heavenly will hadn’t been thrown into confusion for a split second?
Lin Hongyu said nothing else; she was only confused why Li Hao had brought her to the great dao universe. What were they doing here?
To give her rewards? Or compensation for what she’d lost?
But Li Hao himself had broken so many great daos. What was he doing here with her instead of going into seclusion to recover?
“Many people want to become the Human King, but I’ve never considered doing that for myself,” Li Hao suddenly said as numerous thoughts flitted through Lin Hongyu’s mind.
