Chapter 713: Shock! Surprise!

Chapter 713: Shock! Surprise!

"Could it be my father?"

"How is that possible! He's stronger than a Chaos Demon God?"

Han Tuo was shocked, constantly roaring in his heart.

The impact of this possibility was simply too strong!

It surpassed any pleasant surprise!

He was so shocked that he forgot to be happy.

Han Tuo looked at the Evil Heavenly Emperor again, but he had already retracted his gaze.

But Han Tuo would never forget the Evil Heavenly Emperor's gaze just now.

It was definitely not an illusion!

He was no ordinary mortal; he wouldn't misinterpret things.

The Evil Heavenly Emperor was indeed looking at him just now, his gaze incredibly complex, seeming surprised, in disbelief, lost, and also resentful.

Han Tuo couldn't accurately decipher the Evil Heavenly Emperor's gaze, but he was convinced it was related to the Sword Qi just now.

Zhou Fan was equally excited hearing Yi Tian's words. He looked at the Evil Heavenly Emperor and said excitedly, "Your Majesty! Are you still going to hide it? Tell us! Who was it? Let us know who our benefactor is!"

The Evil Heavenly Emperor's expression was complex. He struggled to adjust his emotions and said through gritted teeth, "If I'm not mistaken, that Sword Qi should have come from your Master, Tuo'er's father, the Master of the Hidden Gate—Han Jue!"

As soon as he said this, Zhou Fan's eyes widened.

The others were also startled.

Because of Han Tuo and Zhou Fan, they often heard Han Jue's name.

Isn't Han Jue a Heavenly Dao Sage?

How could he support them?

Was that Sword Qi just now fired from the Heavenly Dao?

Impossible!

How far would that be?

Everyone was frightened and quickly dismissed the thought.

Could Han Jue have already arrived nearby?

That was the only possibility!

"Master! Where are you?"

Zhou Fan shouted excitedly, guessing like the others that Han Jue was nearby.

After learning the truth, Han Tuo felt relieved, his heart as complex as the Evil Heavenly Emperor's.

It really was father…

Yi Tian looked at Han Tuo strangely and muttered, "So the Heavenly Court's backing isn't because of His Majesty, but because of you, kid."

He was very puzzled; he used to think Han Tuo was an orphan like him.

Who knew he was the only orphan?

Han Tuo didn't respond; his mind was in a mess.

Yi Tian's words made him realize that his previous escapes from danger were all due to his father's secret interventions.

Although his father didn't seem to care much on the surface, he always stood up for him at critical moments.

The more Han Tuo thought about it, the more he felt like a piece of trash. He hadn't repaid his father for the kindness of giving him life and raising him, and occasionally, he even complained in his heart that his father didn't look after him.

The Evil Heavenly Emperor didn't say much and quickly led everyone away.

…

Heavenly Dao, Outside the Thirty-Third Heaven.

Han Jue lowered his right hand after seeing the Evil Heavenly Emperor and the others escape danger.

The Saints felt his Aura dissipate and all breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Daokong couldn't help but ask, "Sect Leader, what's the situation?"

Han Jue looked at the Saints and smiled. "It's nothing, just a private matter. I was busy saving my son just now and didn't have time to answer you all. You may all disperse; there is no crisis for the Heavenly Dao."

Saving his son?

The Saints were stunned. They all knew Han Jue had a son named Han Tuo, who had left the Heavenly Dao long ago. Could he have been passing by the Heavenly Dao just now?

Why hadn't they detected him?

Venerable Xuandu and Wu Fa Heavenly Venerate thought of something, and their expressions changed slightly.

Legend has it that a Great Dao Sage can strike across the Chaos…

Han Jue is a Great Dao Sage!

Han Jue disappeared from the spot.

Sect Master Tianjue shook his head and laughed. "If Fellow Daoist Pan were here, I wonder what his expression would be."

South Pole Heavenly Venerate followed with a laugh, "He definitely wouldn't dare to be arrogant anymore. Fellow Daoist Han's Aura just now was much stronger than Pan Xin's!"

The other Saints nodded.

They had witnessed the battle between Pan Xin and the Peacock Divine Lord, which was indeed terrifying, but compared to Han Jue just now, it was still quite lacking.

Shi Duxiao was lost in thought.

For some reason, he felt more and more that Han Jue was related to the Dark Forbidden Master, or perhaps Han Jue was the Dark Forbidden Master.

How could such a powerful existence be hidden within the Heavenly Dao?

Of course, it was just a guess.

Anyway, he was following the Dark Forbidden Master. If Han Jue was the Dark Forbidden Master, it would be great; at least sticking with the Hidden Gate wouldn't be a loss.

"Actually, it's a good thing he didn't see it," Wu Fa Heavenly Venerate suddenly laughed.

Seeing his smile, the Saints all felt a chill.

This guy's mind was too wicked!

Venerable Xuandu shook his head and turned to leave.

Han Jue's strength made him feel that he should re-evaluate the Heavenly Dao; perhaps the Heavenly Dao could quicken its pace!

…

Returning to the Daoist temple, Han Jue kept his eyes on the Evil Heavenly Emperor and the others. Only after confirming they were truly safe did he withdraw his gaze.

He had seen the Inauspicious Divine Emperor and the Chaos Demon God; those two were very strong.

Especially that Chaos Demon God; even without a Soul, it could contend with the Inauspicious Divine Emperor and even gain a slight upper hand.

"Chaos truly is a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers."

Han Jue lamented inwardly.

His attention fell on the Great Obscuring Dao Demon God again.

The Great Obscuring Dao Demon God wanted to draw him out, and he didn't know if he was a friend or foe.

Han Jue was too lazy to calculate. He had no grievances with the Great Obscuring Dao Demon God, and since the Great Obscuring Dao Demon God was the Evil Heavenly Emperor's backer, there was no reason for him to be an enemy.

Let's continue to Cultivate.

Han Jue closed his eyes.

This time, I must Cultivate for five thousand years!

Even if the Heavenly Emperor comes, it won't matter!

No one can stop my determination!

…

Five thousand years later.

Han Jue opened his eyes and let out a long breath.

Finally, a single seclusion of five thousand years!

So satisfying!

However, the increase in cultivation was too slow. Han Jue began to hesitate whether to raise the seclusion threshold to ten thousand years.

His gaze sharpened, and Li Xuanao appeared before him.

Li Xuanao had been waiting outside for over a thousand years, leaving several times in between.

Seeing Han Jue, Li Xuanao couldn't help but pour out his grievances, "Sect Leader, how did your seclusion period change?"

Han Jue said, "I was delayed by some matters before. You can start counting from today."

Li Xuanao nodded. He didn't dare to ask further; after all, he was a subordinate, so how could he blame the Sect Leader?

He spoke up, "Sect Leader, I want to take the prodigies sent in earlier out. I plan to lead the Hidden Gate to the Chaos Heavenly Road…"

He began to talk incessantly about his plan.

After Han Jue finished listening, he said, "Fine, but be careful in everything. Don't forget the name of the Hidden Gate. Don't be too aggressive, don't oppress the weak, and don't let the Hidden Gate become an Arrogant Gate."

Li Xuanao's expression became solemn, as if he had thought of something, and then he said seriously, "The Sect Leader is right. I will definitely manage them strictly."

Seeing his expression, Han Jue guessed the truth, but a reminder was enough. How could any faction be completely free of mistakes?

As long as they could change!

Half an hour later, Li Xuanao went to gather the prodigies, including Qin Ling.

Han Jue waved his hand and sent them out together.

After leaving the Hundred Peaks Immortal River, the prodigies were all in a daze.

One of them lamented, "I'm really not used to this Spiritual Qi."

Others agreed.

"Yeah, the Spiritual Qi in the Hidden Gate's Dao Field is just too abundant."

"I regret it a little now."

"Haha, it's not like we won't come back in the future."

"Looking at it this way, our Hidden Gate is the sect with the deepest foundation. Just in terms of Spiritual Qi, where in the entire Immortal Realm can compare?"

Listening to the prodigies' words, Li Xuanao shook his head and laughed. He led the prodigies forward, his gaze falling on Qin Ling. He was still quite expectant of this Prodigy under his Senior Brother's lineage.

One look and he was shocked!
