Despite feeling incredibly frustrated and angry, Hou Yi ultimately released Kuafu and Zhaohe.
Firstly, Kuafu's strength is no less than his own, and if they were to really fight, it would be hard to say who would win or lose, not to mention that there's that bastard Zhaohe watching from the sidelines.
Secondly, Kuafu's reputation and number of followers among the Witch Clan are not much less than his own, and if war breaks out with him, it could very likely cause the entire Witch Clan to split apart.
Thirdly, Kuafu has clearly stated that he will give up his rights in the Witch Clan. All that is needed now is for me to take over Kuafu's rights and followers in the Witch Clan.
As for that woman from Zhaohe, he only married her as part of a plan, and he hasn't even touched her all these years. If she ran away, so be it.
Kuafu and Zhaohe were truly in love. They left decisively, planning to go on their honeymoon and spend their last moments together, which would make their lives worthwhile.
Wang Hao, who was secretly watching the spectacle, seemed to be deep in thought, gleaning some information from the last words of the Kuafu Wu Emperor.
Although it was clear that even Kuafu Wu Emperor himself didn't know much, the information revealed in his few words was still very helpful to him.
" Kuafu and Hou Yi were both at the Peak Heavenly Dao Realm. The Sky-Patrolling Goddess Zhaohe was a little weaker, but she was still at the Heavenly Dao Realm Late Stage."
Therefore, the Dao Ancestor they mentioned must be a powerful being at the Great Dao Realm, and not just one, but many.
Wang Hao seemed thoughtful, then asked his two snake-spirit wives in his arms, "Wife, that Kuafu Wu Emperor mentioned the Dao Ancestor. Are there many such beings?"
"I know that. My master mentioned it before. There are a total of three thousand Dao Ancestor and five Supreme Dao Ancestor."
Xiaoqing spoke first, revealing the information she knew.
Although she disliked reading those dry and boring classics, she remembered everything her master had said clearly, and coincidentally, her master had mentioned this point before.
" Supreme Dao Ancestor!"
His starry eyes narrowed slightly. He could confirm that the Dao Ancestor was at the Great Dao Realm, but it was hard to say about the Supreme Dao Ancestor. However, even if he was not at the Supreme Dao Realm, he must have reached the Half-Step Dao Realm, just like Pangu.
The powerful beings of this era are indeed far stronger than those of the Primordial World.
"Unfortunately, the three thousand Dao Ancestor and the five Supreme Dao Ancestor all suddenly disappeared ten thousand years ago, and even my master doesn't know where they went."
Bai Suzhen added a sentence, her expression also quite complicated.
When her master mentioned this, her expression was very unpleasant, clearly indicating that something serious had happened.
Moreover, the changes in the world began precisely when those Dao Ancestor disappeared, which definitely hides a shocking secret.
Looks like we won't be able to eat tonight. Let's go to the Heavenly Court for the Flat Peach Banquet!
Seeing that the surrounding area, spanning billions of miles, had been scorched into a state of magma, Wang Hao knew that it would be difficult to find ingredients in such an environment, so he stopped forcing it and had his two beautiful wives ride the clouds to take him to the Heavenly Court.
Their main purpose in coming out this time was to go to the Heavenly Court to attend the once-in-ten-thousand-years Flat Peach Banquet; otherwise, he would definitely still be in his cave collecting and refining the Power of the End!
The Heavenly Court is the most powerful force of this era. In the past, it was supported by an Supreme Dao Ancestor. Even though all Dao Ancestor have disappeared, the foundation accumulated over countless years is still enough to suppress all forces in the world.
Of course, the Flat Peach Banquet held by such a powerful Heavenly Court is not something that ordinary people are qualified to attend; the minimum requirement is Primordial Unity Realm cultivation level.
Fortunately, the master of her two snake-spirit wives was very capable, a supreme expert no less powerful than Hou Yi Wu Emperor. As the personal disciple of such a powerful figure, Bai Suzhen was qualified to attend the Flat Peach Banquet in place of her master in the present day, with the powerful figure gone.
Wang Hao and Xiaoqing were just basking in the glory.
Moreover, Wang Hao also wanted to take this opportunity to see the differences and connections between the Flat Peach of this era and the Flat Peach of the Primordial World.
"It would be best if we could see that Flat Peach Tree!"
He secretly made up his mind that once he arrived in Heavenly Court, he would find a way to visit the Peach Garden.
The Heavenly Court occupies the entire sky. As long as one flies into the sky, one can enter the Heavenly Court from anywhere. Especially now, during the Flat Peach Banquet, the Heavenly Court has opened all its entrances.
The structure of the Heavenly Court in this era was very different from that of the Primordial Main World. Instead of being divided into thirty-three layers, it was divided into thirty-three regions, which together formed the entire Heavenly Court and occupied all of the firmament.
These thirty-three regions are dotted with Tianmen, through which one can travel to various parts of the Heavenly Court Tianmen. So, not long after entering the Heavenly Court, one arrives at the Central Heavenly Domain through a Tianmen.
After enjoying themselves in the Heavenly Court for some time, the Flat Peach Banquet finally began.
Of course, the Flat Peach Banquet itself was also divided into different levels, based on different cultivation levels. Wang Hao and his wife's cultivation levels were too low, so they were placed on the outermost edge.
This was only because of Bai Suzhen's master; otherwise, she would have been expelled from Heavenly Court long ago.
After all, the cultivation level of the Taiyi Realm was far too low-class at the Flat Peach Banquet. In the eyes of the Heavenly Court, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing were less like disciples of that being and more like maids, and were not qualified to enter the Core Circle at all.
The Flat Peach Banquet was clearly just a pretext to gather powerful figures from all sides of the world to discuss certain matters.
Because of the great changes in the world, those truly powerful figures must have gathered together to discuss this matter.
However, Wang Hao was not very interested in this. Judging from the previous situations of Hou Yi Wu Emperor and Kuafu, it was clear that the existence of the Heavenly Dao Realm Wu Emperor not know much. The real secrets were all contained in those mysteriously disappeared Dao Ancestor.
His greatest interest in coming here was to see the Peach Garden rooted in the Heavenly Court. He winked at his two beautiful wives beside him, and Wang Hao's true spirit escaped from his body and flew towards the Peach Garden.
During his few days of travel in the Central Heavenly Domain, he had thoroughly observed the layout of the area and already knew the location of the Peach Garden.
Although there are countless powerful restrictions in the Heavenly Court, they are useless to a giant like Wang Hao who has Great Dao Realm. In fact, those people cannot even detect him.
After passing through countless restrictive formations, Wang Hao quickly arrived at the Peach Garden and went straight to the core area.
The Flat Peach Tree here are all incredibly large, with the smallest being over a hundred feet tall. However, the most central Flat Peach Tree is only ten feet tall and bears only three thousand and five peaches.
He learned about this from his wife, who said that there was originally only one Flat Peach Tree, and the surrounding Flat Peach groves were all cultivated from the pits of that one Flat Peach Tree, but the results were much worse.
The Flat Peach produced by this Flat Peach Ancestral Tree have always been used to supply the three thousand Dao Ancestor and the five Supreme Dao Ancestor. Moreover, its growth cycle is extremely long, measured in trillions of years, and the energy contained within it is naturally incredibly abundant.
Eating just one peach is enough for an ordinary person to possess the magical power of the Peak Heavenly Dao Realm, not to mention the supreme Dao essence contained within the Flat Peach, which is the best aid for cultivation and even greatly benefits a Dao Ancestor- level expert.
However, as soon as Wang Hao arrived, he discovered that someone had infiltrated the place—no, it shouldn't be called a person, but a monkey.
Looking at the six furry ears on both sides of the monkey's head, Wang Hao immediately guessed the monkey's identity.
This is clearly the Six-Eared Macaque of this era; it's unbelievable that this monkey would dare to sneak into the Flat Peach Forest.
"You've got some nerve, and your cultivation level is pretty good too!"
After observing secretly, Wang Hao discovered that the Six-Eared Macaque of this era was indeed quite powerful, having reached the Peak Heavenly Dao Realm.
He appeared to be seriously injured, though it was unclear who had injured him.
At this moment, the Six-Eared Macaque was staring longingly at the Flat Peach Ancestral Tree in the core area, his mouth watering incessantly.
Looking at the powerful restrictions surrounding the Flat Peach Ancestral Tree, the Six-Eared Macaque hesitated again, his eyes filled with apprehension, clearly showing the strength of the restrictions.
Even in its prime, it would be difficult to break through, let alone in its current severely injured state.
"Damn it, those sniffy dogs!"
Suddenly, as if sensing something, the Six-Eared Macaque turned his head to look at the entrance of the Peach Garden behind him, and finally gritted his teeth and rushed towards the Flat Peach Ancestral Tree.
Wang Hao sensed that a large group of people had gathered outside the Peach Garden, exuding murderous intent. They rushed in shortly afterward, clearly indicating that the Six-Eared Macaque's whereabouts had been exposed.
What happened?
The Six-Eared Macaque, who was on guard, blinked its adorable monkey eyes and stared in astonishment at the Flat Peach Ancestral Tree that was right in front of it.
He was prepared to fight back against the restrictions here, but to his surprise, when he rushed to the Flat Peach Ancestral Tree, the restrictions seemed to be non-existent, and none of them were triggered.
Realizing something was wrong, the Six-Eared Macaque didn't dare to think too much. He casually picked the peach closest to him and prepared to make a quick escape.
Putting aside the bizarre situation here, the people chasing him are already difficult to deal with. If he were caught, given his current state, he would definitely be doomed.
So we must escape quickly!
"Monkey, you're hopeless! How can such a big monkey be so timid?"
Just as the Six-Eared Macaque was preparing to retreat, a sigh echoed in his mind, its tone conveying a sense of disappointment and frustration.
It was naturally Wang Hao who spoke up, and he was genuinely disappointed in this monkey.
He had just used his powers to temporarily suppress the restrictions surrounding the Flat Peach Ancestral Tree, all to allow this monkey to enter.
But this monkey was too timid; it only picked one and then ran away.
You're a monkey, and out of all these peaches, you only picked one? How dare you call yourself a monkey?
"Senior! Please forgive me, considering this is my first offense!"
The Six-Eared Macaque immediately knelt down. The fact that it could directly transmit its voice to his mind made him realize that this was definitely a true big shot that he couldn't afford to offend.
He had been wondering why the restrictions on the Flat Peach Ancestral Tree weren't working, but it seems this was all the work of this powerful figure.
"It's good that you admit your mistake; I'll borrow your body for a while!"
With a shout, Wang Hao transferred his true spirit into the body of the Six-Eared Macaque, gaining control of the monkey's body and primordial spirit.
Then, under the horrified gaze of the Six-Eared Macaque, it controlled its body to uproot the entire Flat Peach Ancestral Tree and swallow it whole.
That wasn't all. Under Wang Hao's control, the Six-Eared Macaque transformed into a gigantic giant, uprooting all the Flat Peach Tree in the entire Peach Garden and swallowing them into its belly.
At this moment, the Six-Eared Macaque was devastated. He had only thought that stealing one peach would be enough, but who would have thought that this big shot's appetite was so terrifying? Not satisfied with uprooting the Flat Peach Ancestral Tree, he also wiped out the entire Peach Garden.
This is a fight to the death between them and the Heavenly Court!
