"This..."
It was not just Li Yun; even the Ancestor Witches and the Three Pure Ones beside him were dumbfounded.
He was, after all, a Great Witch in the late stage of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm. How could he be so frail? He was even inferior to Chi Yun and Lei Xu.
"Ancestor Witches, what is the meaning of this?"
Laozi subconsciously frowned. "Did you deliberately choose a weak Great Witch?"
"Or did you have him put on an act?"
As soon as he said this, Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian were likewise filled with suspicion.
Even quite a few Ancestor Witches instinctively looked toward Zhujiuyin, their eyes full of doubt.
"Absolutely impossible!"
Zhujiuyin opened his mouth and subconsciously said, "Hou Hao is indeed somewhat special. His Law is unsuitable for battle, but his strength is genuine. He is absolutely stronger than Lei Xu and Chi Yun. This..."
Hearing Zhujiuyin's words, the Ancestor Witches beside him calmed down as well.
Although the Three Pure Ones were doubtful, they also knew about Hou Hao. Logically speaking, he should not have been so weak.
"Ancestor Witch."
At that moment, Chi Yun seemed to recall something. He raised his hand and said somewhat uncertainly, "It may be because Hou Hao lost a drop of Essence Blood!"
"He previously made a deal with Daoist Li Yun and paid a drop of his own Essence Blood as the price."
"If it had been us Great Witches, it would not have mattered. But after Hou Hao lost a drop of Essence Blood, he needs time to adjust before he can recover completely, so..."
So that was it!
Upon hearing this, Li Yun immediately came to a realization.
No wonder Hou Hao was so fragile. It turned out it was because of the deal
