Chapter 1524: Peace of Mind (III)
“Hao Moon, you’re newly risen to the exalted emperor level, so you should focus on observation,” Exalted Emperor Ming Hao suddenly transmitted from the front. “It’s best if you stay out of battle!”
“Thank you for your care, senior!” Li Hao laughed. “But don’t worry. If I die, Fellow Daoist Void will not make trouble for everyone, unless I die to our own. He will not be an obstacle in everyone’s way, but our reinforcement. We can even borrow the name of Light major world in a critical moment of need if we must. The fellow daoist is easy to talk to, he won’t mind.”
Bullshit!
Everyone cursed to themselves. Borrow the name of an eighth rank major world?! That’s how we die by a thousand random cuts!
Easy to talk to?? Void?!
No way! He never bothered with us before and was too proud to even look at us. We didn’t understand it, but now we do. He’s the crown prince of an eighth rank major world, of course he’s proud!
And he’s a fifth rank himself!
Ming Hao knew a bit more than the others. Void was said to have reached fifth rank a long time ago, but now did not cultivate the power of light. And yet, he was still a fifth rank nonetheless... that was the most terrifying of it all.
He’d thought before that he could go toe-to-toe with the other, but now Ming Hao was fully aware that if Void was who he said he was and a fifth rank nonetheless... that changed everything. He no longer used the power of light. Would he just be a fifth rank upon reaching that level again?
He was probably even a sixth rank!
Ming Hao didn’t say anything as he needed to defend his authority in front of the other exalted emperors. He couldn’t be noticeably affected by knowledge of Li Hao’s patron. However, he did need to look out for the young man when appropriate!
Therefore, he was even traveling at a slower speed in order to accommodate Li Hao. Being a newly ascended exalted emperor, there was no way the young man could keep up with them.
