Minghe Was Stunned? Yuanshi Tianzun: "There's Always Some Troublemaker Trying to Harm Me!"

"Saint Taishang, you must save the Dao Ancestor!"

Ancestor Minghe didn't care what Taishang Laojun was thinking. He repeated himself, then recounted everything he'd seen and heard in full.

At the end, he added, "Saint Taishang, the Interception Sect is acting so brazenly. You can't keep indulging them!"

"..."

"Uh???"

Ancestor Minghe froze, then muttered hesitantly, "The Interception Sect's strength? Apart from having a few Saints, I haven't seen many of their other people."

Ancestor Minghe was startled, but remembering his earlier analysis, he hurriedly shook his head. "Saint Taishang, don't be fooled by their tricks. Apart from the San Xiao sisters, who somehow got lucky and became Saints, the Interception Sect only has Saint Tongtian and his clone!"

Besides,

even if Master and Journey to the West Tongtian were both illusions, who had ever seen an illusion so lifelike that it could even stand against the Two Saints of the West?

"Saint Taishang, that's exactly what I wanted to tell you!"

Ancestor Minghe looked at Taishang Laojun with utter seriousness and said each word distinctly,
