Chapter 638: Good night, Patriarch Bodhi
Xiao Tian had originally intended to make a move, but after spotting Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun, he abandoned the idea. He already understood his own combat strength. None of the Twelve Ancestral Witches could match him individually, and the future Saints had yet to attain sainthood, so their combat strength was not particularly impressive. In fact, they could not even defeat Zhao Gongming alone, with his Sea-Calming Pearls.
The three-thousand-year period of rest and Dao discussions soon passed.
During that time, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were naturally the most eager to fight. Even Houtu had made a move several times.
Likewise, Donghuang Taiyi and Di Jun fought several times, making names for themselves among the Three Thousand Red-Dust Guests of Zi Xiao Palace.
Donghuang Taiyi, however, kept a low profile. He never used the Eastern Emperor Bell. Relying solely on his innate physical prowess and his divine ability, solar true flame, he could already battle an Ancestral Witch.
Of course, without the Eastern Emperor Bell, Donghuang Taiyi remained at a disadvantage against the Ancestral Witches.
Xiao Tian also saw Ancestor Hongyun. The fellow was such a peacock. He was quite handsome, but more importantly, he had apparently dressed himself in a bright red robe because he considered himself the first innate red cloud.
Moreover, he had actually become acquainted with Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao quite quickly. He now possessed entry-level false saint cultivation as well. His talent was impressive; no wonder he would become one of the foremost Quasi-Saints in the future.
Unfortunately, Hongyun's way of doing things bore some resemblance to that of the grand old Zhao Gongming, yet he had no accompanying Numinous Treasure to protect him. By now, he had taken plenty of beatings.
Still, he truly had no shame.
