Tongtian was brimming with vigor and radiant confidence, letting himself loose completely in front of Xihe.
Perhaps all men liked to boast in front of their women. Even as a Sage, Tongtian clearly could not escape that tendency.
He had even stopped referring to himself as "this venerable one" and simply used "I."
But his words nearly scared Xihe senseless.
Good grief, wasn't that a little too arrogant?
To be honest, Xihe still knew far too little about the Primordial Lands as they were now.
In her view, the Sages should have been roughly equal in combat strength. Even if Tongtian's Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation supposedly required four Sages to break it, wouldn't he be finished once four Sages joined forces?

At the very least, judging from his words, Tongtian's air of indifference and disdain might have been partly an attempt to impress her, but it also reflected his absolute confidence.
His remarks even suggested that he had already defeated the Four Saints once before, and had severely wounded the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.
That was clearly not something he could fake.
It seemed that even among Sages, there were differences in standing and strength.
But if that merely surprised Xihe, then Tongtian's proposed handling of Lu Ya nearly shattered her entire outlook on life.

Not to mention that she
