At this, Venerable Yuanshi paused briefly, his gaze turning cold as he added:
"Besides..."
"Do you think I would let him go?"
"He is no Heavenly Dao Saint. If he dies without the Heavenly Dao Power to protect him, then that will be... true death!"
Venerable Yuanshi's words stirred Haotian's thoughts.
The reason he had flatly refused Venerable Yuanshi earlier was that he feared Yuanshi would be no match for Qin Mu.
But who could have known that Venerable Yuanshi had joined forces with the extraterrestrial demons?
Demon Ancestor Luohu was an existence who could rival Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
No matter how powerful Qin Mu was, he had yet to reach Dao Ancestor Hongjun's level.
Besides, Haotian was well aware of one thing.
Venerable Yuanshi's alliance with Luohu of Chaos Outer Heaven was a highly confidential matter.
Yet Venerable Yuanshi had told him about it.
If he refused to cooperate, Venerable Yuanshi probably wouldn't let him leave alive.
As Haotian pondered in a daze, Venerable Yuanshi's eyes narrowed, and he stared straight at Haotian.
"Haotian, will you still refuse me now?"
As he spoke, Venerable Yuanshi's eyes were icy.
Haotian froze, his feelings in turmoil.
Although he hesitated, in the end he still agreed.
"All right!"
"I... I agree, Venerable."
"Only..."
Haotian trailed off, looking hesitant.
"What else concerns you?"
Venerable Yuanshi's expression darkened as he asked coldly.
Haotian pressed his lips together, then quickly replied:
"Venerable."
"I... I don't have much strength myself."
"You want me to work with you, but... what can I do for you?"
Haotian looked puzzled.
As he saw it, his strength was only at the Quasi-Saint level.
With such cultivation, he was no more than an ant before Emperor Venerate and Qin Mu.
What Haotian couldn't understand was why Venerable Yuanshi wanted to work
