"Would you two care to visit my Sun Star for a while?"
With the Chaos Pearl in hand, Daochen was thrilled.
After all, the Chaos Pearl was a Chaos Supreme Treasure, far more powerful than any treasure he currently possessed.
Daochen had offered the invitation out of goodwill, but Haotian's heart lurched. He hurriedly waved his hands and said, "No need, no need. We must return to the Purple Heavens Palace to report. Demon Emperor, we shall take our leave."
With that, he grabbed Yaochi and hurried away.
He truly feared Daochen might say something else to Yaochi. Then he would really be done for.
After all these years, he had finally managed, through a thousand trials and ten thousand hardships, to quell Yaochi's suspicions of him. If Daochen stuck his foot in again, all that effort would go to waste.
"In that case, I won't insist."
Daochen grinned as he spoke.
Hearing this, Haotian relaxed a little.
At last, Daochen hadn't ruined things for him!
Yet the instant that thought flashed through Haotian's mind, Daochen suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Fellow Daoist, what are you doing?"
Haotian's heart jolted. He hastily retreated several steps, shielding Yaochi to keep Daochen from approaching her.
Good grief, I knew Daochen couldn't be that kind! He's definitely here to stir up trouble again.
While Haotian was nervous to the point of death, Yaochi pricked up her ears in curiosity.
I knew it! Haotian is up to no good!!!
Yaochi muttered inwardly, listening carefully for what Daochen would say next.
But Daochen had no intention of paying Yaochi any attention. Instead, he leaned toward Haotian with a mysterious air.
"Since you went to the trouble of coming all this way, I'll give you a warning: watch out for anyone surnamed Yang."
"Surnamed Yang?
