Heavenly Underworld Enters the Saint Realm

Afterward, everyone saw Xiao Han, dressed in a red wedding robe, appear before them with a cold expression.

"Hmm?" the Heavenly Underworld Old Demon said with a smile. "My Heavenly Underworld Sect merely came here to spar with Pavilion Master Su. We bear absolutely no ill will."

"Then I'm sorry, but I do bear ill will." As Xiao Han's voice fell, everyone from the Heavenly Underworld Sect suddenly felt the temperature around them plunge. Several elders with weaker cultivation even sneezed unexpectedly.

"From this day forth, your Heavenly Underworld Sect has no reason to exist."

"Looks like Pavilion Master Su's confidence has greatly increased after breaking through?" the Heavenly Underworld Old Demon said indifferently, as if he had expected this all along.

"Looks like you have another trick up your sleeve too?" Xiao Han was taken aback, but did not care. After all, he was certain to win this match.

The Heavenly Underworld Sect absolutely could not be allowed to survive. Even if a Saint Realm expert from the Soul Clan personally intervened, the result would not change in the slightest.

The Heavenly Underworld Old Demon's actions today had already reduced Xiao Han's patience to its limit.

He had originally planned to conceal his strength and let them live a little longer, but he had never expected these idiots to rush to their deaths.

Since that was the case, Xiao Han would grant their wish.

"That's only natural. You, Ice Saint... No, you should be called Ice Saint now. I'm deeply familiar with your methods.

"If I hadn't prepared a few more moves, how would an old man like me dare to provoke you?"

The Heavenly Underworld Old Demon looked smug, as if victory were already in his grasp.

By now, many people had already come out to watch.

Judging from the tone of the elder who had been responsible for receiving them earlier, Langya Pavilion—especially Ice Saint—had grown vastly stronger. Everyone had initially thought that the Heavenly Underworld Sect had come to seek death today.

But now, that did not seem to be the case. The ancestor of the Heavenly Underworld Sect seemed extremely confident.

"Indeed!" Heavenly Sound Old Man, Elder Qiu, and the representatives of many first-rate powers suddenly understood. This old bastard really had come prepared.

"I won't keep you in suspense. Today, I'll show you the confidence behind this Saint's strength."

This Saint?

The expressions of Heavenly Sound Old Man and the others changed, their faces paling somewhat. Had he actually broken through to Dou Sheng?

In the next moment, as if to confirm their guess, a vast and imposing aura radiated from the Heavenly Underworld Old Demon.

Many people immediately felt uncomfortable. Some of the weaker Dou Zun began circulating their Dou Qi to resist the pressure.

Clearly, such might could not be compared with the so-called Half-Saint realm.

At that moment, the tide instantly turned toward the Heavenly Underworld Sect.

"Sigh, I never thought the ancestor of the Heavenly Underworld Sect would break through to Dou Sheng. Looks like Langya Pavilion is finished."

"Should we send the Heavenly Underworld Sect some gifts and pay them a visit? It wouldn't be good if they held a grudge against us."

"The disciples of the Heavenly Underworld Sect were already arrogant enough. Now their tails will probably be raised to the sky."

"There's nothing we can do. Who told their ancestor to be so powerful?"

Heavenly Underworld Son and the other high-ranking members of the Heavenly Underworld Sect looked at their ancestor in delighted surprise. They had thought his mind had gone wrong, but it turned out he had broken through.

"With a Dou Sheng expert, my Heavenly Underworld Sect will surely become powerful once more. Our ancestor really saw several steps ahead this time."

"Hahaha, Pavilion Master Su, I advise you to surrender immediately. That way, our ancestor might be in a good mood and spare your Langya Pavilion." Heavenly Underworld Son's back straightened as well, and he spoke arrogantly to Xiao Han and everyone from Langya Pavilion.

Even the elders of Langya Pavilion felt that the situation was somewhat grim. Their Pavilion Master might not be able to hold out.

After all, the gap between Half-Saint and Dou Sheng was far greater than the gap between Dou Zun Peak and Half-Saint.

Even so, none of them had considered surrendering.

What a joke. Did the Heavenly Underworld Sect have any credibility in the Central Plains? If they fought now, they might still be able to carve out a path of survival for the disciples beneath them.

They could not simply place their hopes in a snake's mercy.

Heavenly Sound Old Man's expression shifted repeatedly. The development of events today had exceeded his expectations. The Heavenly Underworld Old Demon had actually reached that legendary realm.

Even if he had only just broken through, he was still a Dou Sheng! In an era when Dou Di did not appear, Dou Sheng was the pinnacle of experts.

Should he help?

This was a life-or-death gamble. If he made the wrong move, the fate of Heavenly Sound Valley would be even more tragic than before.

After a long while, Heavenly Sound Old Man gritted his teeth and sent a voice transmission to Xiao Han. "Pavilion Master Su, I'll join forces with you. As long as we can force the Heavenly Underworld Old Demon to retreat today, everything else will be easy to handle.

"Would Pavilion Master Su be willing to give it a try?"

"Oh?" Xiao Han raised a brow, surprised. He had not expected Heavenly Sound Old Man to go this far for Langya Pavilion.

Although Xiao Han had once shown Heavenly Sound Old Man great kindness, he had never expected that favor to make the other man willing to live or die alongside him.

In this situation, one wrong move would mean offending a mighty expert in the Dou Sheng Realm. For a sect without a Saint Realm expert, that would be a calamity leading to its destruction.

Even if he stood by and watched, no one could say anything about it.

Especially since, in the eyes of the world, Langya Pavilion was clearly no match for a Dou Sheng. After all, at this level, victory could no longer be achieved through numbers.

"Can you tell me why? Don't say it's because of our friendship. I don't believe in that sort of thing." Xiao Han asked.

Heavenly Sound Old Man gave a bitter laugh. "Nothing can escape those sharp eyes of yours, you sly little monkey.

"You should know that the Heavenly Underworld Sect's strength will definitely increase greatly now that it has a Dou Sheng ancestor. If you are destroyed, they may well turn their blades on me, the ally of Langya Pavilion in the eyes of every faction.

"So it's better to fight now. That way, we'll have a better chance of surviving.

"Besides, you're still very young. As long as you survive, the Dou Sheng realm will certainly not be able to hold you back in the future.

"But I've already exhausted my potential. Although I don't know how that old ghost of the Heavenly Underworld broke through, without a fortuitous opportunity, I have no chance of entering that realm.

"So I hope to obtain a favor from you. Once you become a Saint in the future, you must help me break through into the Saint Realm as well.

"I want to see the scenery at that height too." By the end, his voice carried a trace of desolation and longing.

Then his tone suddenly changed. "Besides, I refuse to believe that the two of us can't defeat a Heavenly Underworld Old Demon who has only barely entered the Early One-Star Dou Sheng stage.

"If the two of us were about equal, that would be wishful thinking. But I have never doubted the combat power of a monster like you."

"I never would have guessed that you trusted me this much, old man. You're putting me under a lot of pressure!" Xiao Han teased.

"Didn't you always say that good people don't live long, while calamities last a thousand years? You were a great calamity in the Central Plains back then. You'll definitely survive."

At that, Heavenly Sound Old Man also felt relieved. Yes, this fellow would definitely survive.

"Then, thank you."

"Exactly. When should I make my move?" Heavenly Sound Old Man had originally been worried that Xiao Han might be unable to let go of his pride and insist on fighting the Heavenly Underworld Old Demon alone.

"But there's no need. I can handle it myself." Xiao Han's next words left Heavenly Sound Old Man stunned, and he immediately grew anxious again.

"You... Why don't you understand? Sigh? Wait, that's not right!" Heavenly Sound Old Man suddenly reacted.

Could it be that this fellow was not as foolish as he seemed?

Perhaps... he should trust Xiao Han this once?

"What is your strength now?" Heavenly Sound Old Man asked.

"I never said I was only a Half-Saint, did I? I'm the monster you called me!" Xiao Han spoke with a faint smile, leaving Heavenly Sound Old Man dumbfounded on the spot.

"A monster naturally has to accomplish what ordinary people cannot, old man."

At last, Heavenly Sound Old Man smiled in relief. Indeed, in a hundred years, who could say that this boy would not reach Dou Sheng?

He then observed Ye Jianxin's expression. It remained utterly calm, and even seemed to carry a hint of pity. It seemed that he really was old.

Heavenly Sound Old Man sighed.
