Chapter 1430 Chapter 342: Reaching the Summit (7K)_4
At this moment, others gathered around the girl in the green dress, who were also disciples from the same sect.
“Do you want to bully the few with many? Who do you blame for not running fast enough?”
A young man snorted coldly, shielding the girl in the green dress behind him.
Gu Yan’s face turned cold, wanting to speak, but Li Hao pulled him back. He quite liked this little junior brother who appeared cold on the outside but was warm inside.
“There’s nothing much to say, they have a point, we can’t blame them.”
Li Hao said with a smile.
Seeing Li Hao’s relaxed appearance, Gu Yan’s expression slightly changed, saying: “But you…”
“No worries.”
Li Hao shook his head, believing he could reach the peak and had the ability to back himself up, which is why he performed such a kind act just now.
Without the ability to back oneself up, it’s not kindness but foolishness.
There’s a difference between the two.
To him, it was merely a deception, which did not affect him.
If it were true, it would have been a kindly assistance.
“Hmph, your junior brother is more sensible, living little yet quite understanding of the reason.”
The young man couldn’t help but sneer upon hearing Li Hao’s words.
Li Hao glanced at him indifferently, then shifted his gaze to the girl in the green dress behind his shoulder, before turning his attention back to Gu Yan and the others, saying:
“You’ve all passed, make sure to perform well in the upcoming competition.”
Yue Xi and the other Great Dream Nine Abysses disciples looked ashamed and saddened.
If it weren’t for Li Hao escorting them at the mountain foot, they wouldn’t be trailing behind by just two at this moment.
“When the competition comes, I’ll avenge you.”
Yue Xi said through clenched teeth.
Li Hao laughed, seeing the others still looking dejected, he said:
“Don’t overthink, I’m going to the peak later and will secure a spot.”
“To the peak?”
Everyone was taken aback, looking at Li Hao.
“You want to reach the peak?” Gu Yan’s eyes moved slightly, seeing Li Hao’s calm and easy-going demeanor, his heart started to thump.
Yue Xi suddenly recalled Li Hao resonating with the nine heavens and earth sounds in the Futu Heart Inquiry Tower, which was at the level of Eternal Dao Heart, and not just low, but middle rank!
Perhaps, Li Hao really could reach the peak!
Thinking of this, she became excited.
“You want to reach the peak?”
Yinjing City raised an eyebrow hearing Li Hao’s words, saying: “You’re so late, are you sure you can reach the peak? At least an Eternal Dao Heart is needed for that!”
Li Hao ignored him, merely waved at everyone, saying: “I’ll leave first, no need to worry.”
Seeing Li Hao’s confident and relaxed demeanor, everyone’s discomfort instantly dissipated significantly, and they all cheered for Li Hao.
The girl in the green dress and her fellow disciples were stunned upon hearing Li Hao’s words, then couldn’t help but sneer.
They all knew Li Hao’s soul life was barely a hundred years, and at such a young age, having a Chaotic Dao Heart was already extremely terrifying, not to mention an Eternal Dao Heart, right?
Even if there’s an Eternal Dao Heart, it may not be able to reach the peak, since along the way, the Tao Realm manifestations would gradually strengthen, eventually matching oneself, requiring defeating them to succeed!
“At such a young age, don’t bluff, is reaching the peak so easy? Falling behind here, let alone reaching the peak.”
The young man sneered.
“If you truly reach the peak, I’d have to congratulate you.”
The girl in the green dress said with a smile, yet her eyes were mocking.
Everyone laughed, taking Li Hao’s struggle as desperation.
“Let’s go.”
Li Hao ignored these voices, waved to Gu Yan and others, then turned away from the Forget Heart Hall, continuing towards the steps leading to the peak.
“Hmph, what an arrogant fellow.”
Yinjing City was annoyed seeing Li Hao ignored him, snorted angrily.
Dream Huai Yue gazed at Li Hao’s departing back, her eyes flickered slightly, saying: “Senior brother, perhaps he truly has the ability to reach the peak.”
“Hmm?”
Seeing his junior sister stand by the opposite side, Yinjing City’s complexion changed.
“You think he has that ability? If he truly did, why would he fall behind others coming here?”
Yinjing City’s face was extremely ugly, the master favored Li Hao, and now the junior sister actually spoke for the opposite.
Dream Huai Yue shook her head slightly, gazed into the direction Li Hao left, saying: “I don’t know why he came now, but look at his expression, in such a matter, he remained unflappable throughout, in his eyes, it seems he never considered those people important, including us, his Dao Heart… might really exceed the level of Chaotic Dao Heart!”
Yinjing City was slightly stunned, recalling Li Hao’s performances, his complexion slightly changed.
“I’ll try too.”
Next to him, Yue Xi said to Gu Yan, then chased after Li Hao.
“I’ll go too.”
Gu Yan snapped back to reality and immediately followed.
Seeing this, others also followed suit, though they may not reach the peak, they could try.
Currently, already having a place in the roster, there’s no need to remain at the Forget Heart Hall waiting, they could attempt the climb.
As they left, disciples from other sects also did the same, initially waiting here for their sect’s other disciples to arrive, now that the places were filled, remaining at the hall lacked meaning.
Soon, hundreds inside the Forget Heart Hall left to challenge the peak.
“Let’s go, we’ll also try.”
The young man next to the girl in the green dress said, leading disciples from the same sect to go together.
As they left the Forget Heart Hall in grand fashion, outside Wenda Mountain, countless were discussing heatedly.
Some discussed the girl in the green dress’s violation, whether it was justified, others talked about whether Li Hao could ascend to the peak and secure a spot in the competition.
“That child is kind-hearted.”
The Original Venerable Empress sat in the high sky, looking down on Wenda Mountain, her eyes showed a hint of gentleness.
“Seeing the child’s performance, it seems likely an Eternal Dao Heart, if so, as long as he can defeat his own Tao Realm manifestations, reaching the peak is not difficult!”
Emperor Jiang nodded approvingly.
“Unmoved by honor or disgrace, not angry when wronged, rare indeed.”
Emperor Tianzhao also nodded praising, which also showed from the side that the young man’s Dao Heart level was extremely high, most likely an Eternal Dao Heart.
With his heart seeing only the eternal, the fleeting blossoms before his eyes are merely passing dreams, naturally dismissing them as insignificant.
“Unexpectedly, such a young age has such Dao Heart, truly remarkable, Emperor Chu, can this child be given to my Red Border Immortal Dynasty, I wish to take him as my disciple, I’m willing to give a hundred cities as exchange!”
Beside him, the Red Border Immortal Dynasty’s Emperor Chi said to Emperor Chu.
Her eyes were as sharp as a torch, with endless allure, enchanting everyone, captivating for an eternity.
Emperor Chu was slightly surprised but smiled: “This child is my future son-in-law of Yan and Chu, I’ve already betrothed my beloved daughter to him, if you wish my dynasty’s son-in-law to be your direct disciple, it’s not unthinkable.”
Emperor Chi raised an eyebrow, unable to help but exclaim disdainfully: “Disgusting!”
Emperor Chu couldn’t help but laugh loudly, secretly admiring his previous clever move.
Seeing this, other emperors hid their thoughts, Emperor Chi unable to exchange even a hundred cities, it would have to be a thousand cities.
But such, further negotiations would be necessary.
They quietly watched over Wenda Mountain, refraining from further speech.
On the ground, each Immortal Dynasty Heavenly Sect saw Li Hao lose a spot and couldn’t help but discuss.
After all, the Tao Fire ranking ninth, eliminated in the second round, if it remained final, would be regrettable.
But given the situation, they could only observe whether the young man truly had the ability to reach the peak.
