Original Sin Celestial Lord was also a man of exceptional intelligence.
He knew very well that the moment he stepped into Kui Water Realm, it would trigger the Saint Race's forceful retaliation.
Even as a High Celestial Venerable, the possibility of falling was infinitely great!
But he could not possibly stand by and watch his great-grandson's corpse be swallowed whole by those wolves!
Under the obstruction of several Celestial Venerables, Original Sin Celestial Lord nonetheless slowed down...
