Chapter 679: A Strong Opponent
He cared greatly about this question. If the other party could hire a strong expert like the Black-clothed Man, then his strength had to surpass the Black-clothed Man's.
Seeing Dao Lord Taichu lost in thought, the Black-clothed Man wanted to stall for a little longer. He hoped the Old Man would come out and save him.
However, the Black-clothed Man had no idea that he was merely a stone the Old Man had thrown down. This was only a trial for Dao Lord Taichu; even if he died, it did not matter.
When the Old Man first met Dao Lord Taichu, he had believed him to be promising material. He wanted to take him as his disciple and knew he would return.
In fact, everything was part of the Old Man's plan. If Dao Lord Taichu was killed by the Black-clothed Man, it meant he was not qualified. If he passed the trial, then once he entered the Yao Realm, the Old Man would naturally let Dao Lord Taichu find him.
"Are you going to talk or not? If you don't, then die!"
Seeing the Black-clothed Man hesitate endlessly, he felt that the man was lying to waste time.
The Black-clothed Man felt that dragging things out was not a solution. Dao Lord Taichu had already become impatient.
"Looks like I can only tell him the truth. But even if I escape Dao Lord Taichu, can I escape the Old Man's pursuit?"
The Black-clothed Man muttered quietly to himself.
"Fine, I'll tell you. In the Yao Realm, he is a highly respected elder. His name is Demon King Yao, though we usually respectfully call him the Old Man."
The Black-clothed Man kept watching his surroundings, terrified that someone might assassinate him midway through his words.
