Hearing Gaishi's words, Hua Yunfei felt a tempest rise within him. The Venerable Lord was Li Zu's backer?
No matter how he tried, he couldn't connect the two. No one could have imagined it.
As Dao Wushuang's master, the Venerable Lord was terrifying beyond measure. The Valley Master had already told Hua Yunfei a little about him.
Heaven Grade was merely the threshold for meeting him!
Just that one sentence was enough to shock the world!
And yet a man like that was Li Zu's backer. No wonder Li Zu had rejected Kaoshan Sect's offer and chosen to obey the Venerable Lord's orders, taking Gaishi back.
Hua Yunfei fell silent. If the Venerable Lord was Li Zu's backer, this would be extremely troublesome. He didn't know whether the Ancestors had the confidence to stand against this legendary being!
"The Venerable Lord?" Elder Ancestor Gai Yan said. "The one from the Low-Level Heavenly Vault? Is he really that powerful?"
"That can't be right, can it?" Elder Ancestor Gai Lei didn't believe it either. "His cultivation should be inferior to Gai Yan's. He only rules the Low-Level Heavenly Vault. He can't possibly compare to you, old man, can he?"
"What do you little brats know?" Gaishi glanced at them and lectured, "Think before you speak. Does what you see have to be the truth? Those legendary old monsters love playing tricks. All living beings under heaven are their Chess Pieces!"
At that, Elder Ancestor Gai Yan and Elder Ancestor Gai Lei wore the strangest expressions. The old man was telling them to think before they spoke? Was that right?
"Who are you?"
They spoke at the same time, staring at Gaishi's face. "Old man, have you been possessed?"
"Possessed my ass!" Gaishi waved a hand and knocked them both to the ground.
