The dozen or so Dao Ancestors who remained did not have the nerve to charge in directly like that.
Heng She muttered, "That Great Chaos has three thousand Dao Ancestors, every one of them an old-established Dao Ancestor. I think we can develop ourselves for a while first, then go test the waters!"
Mo Wuhui nodded as well. "I strongly agree with you. How about we go nurture Dao Ancestors together? Speaking of which, there are many Nine-step Dao Children within our Great Chaos. There must be some with great potential among them!"
Star River Dao Ancestor nodded too. "You have a point. You all seem to have broken through to the Dao Ancestor Realm in a very short time. Do you have any experience you could share?"
Mo Wuhui and Heng She exchanged a glance, their expressions somewhat awkward.
Eternal Daoist seemed to realize something then. With a strange look, he turned toward Mo Wuhui and Heng She, his gaze especially fixed on Mo Wuhui.
"No wonder, no wonder!" Yongxu Daoist spoke up as well. "I was wondering why the two of you broke through so easily. So you had someone backing you!"
Star River Dao Ancestor froze. "What do you mean?"
Dao Ancestor Wu Yun gave a strange laugh. "This Mo Wuhui is Origin Ancestor's Personal Disciple. As for Heng She, he can be considered a nominal disciple. And me? I was once one of Origin Ancestor's subordinates!"
He looked exceptionally proud, and as he explained, he seemed to gain much more confidence.
Ling Shen Dao Ancestor, standing in the corner, said in shock, "Wuhui is actually that person's disciple?"
Mo Wuhui said guiltily, "I have disgraced Master. I cannot even compare to a pet!"
Everyone was stunned. Looking in the direction Jinbao had vanished, they exchanged glances.
