Heavenly Dao Hongjun saw that Zhou Qingqing had returned and had even brought the Ferocious Beast Calamity to an end. He knew that this intervention of his had reached its curtain call.
He immediately decided to close the gates of Purple Cloud Palace once more and vanish from sight entirely.
However.
At that very moment.
He noticed that the Three Pure Ones in the corner of his eye showed no intention of leaving.
As he pondered this.
He saw Upper Pure Master Tongtian raise his sword-like brows.
"Heavenly Dao, although we reached an agreement afterward."
"That is another matter entirely."
"One thing at a time. Heavenly Dao was the one who schemed against our disciple first. We still need to settle the score between us."
Hearing Upper Pure Master Tongtian's words, Heavenly Dao Hongjun suddenly found Tongtian a little less lovable.
No.
It was not just Upper Pure Master Tongtian. All Three Pure Ones gave him that same feeling now.
In past Primordial World reincarnations, the Three Pure Ones before him had always been obedient Mystic Gate disciples. Yet now, they were truly going to fight him for Zhou Qingqing's sake.
Heavenly Dao Hongjun did not understand, but he knew that a battle of Dao arts was now inevitable.
Under normal circumstances, if he fought the Three Pure Ones in Purple Cloud Palace, he would undoubtedly hold an overwhelming advantage. But now that he was suffering the backlash of altering history, the outcome was no longer certain.
Still.
It was impossible for him to simply give up the fight so easily.
His gaze turned cold. "Then come."
There was no point in saying more. Unless they fought, neither side would be able to untie the knot in their hearts. They might as well truly have a battle.
Wow.
