Chapter 787: Shame, Dao Companion [Fifth Update, Requesting monthly votes]

The dream world was the mountain forest near the Yuqing Sacred Sect.

Huang Zuntian opened his eyes, and seeing it was Han Jue, he immediately rose to salute.

"Master!"

Huang Zuntian spoke respectfully.

Han Jue noticed that Huang Zuntian, like Ancestor Xitian, had become sinister and strange; the transformation in his temperament was visible to the naked eye, lacking any of a Saint's divine bearing.

Han Jue asked, "Why has the fortune of the Heavenly Dao been cut off recently?"

He did not ask about Fate directly, acting as if he did not know the truth.

Huang Zuntian replied helplessly, "Your subordinate was incompetent. I was attacked by Fate and forced to become Fate."

Speaking of this, he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

"Defeated by how many members of Fate?"

"One…"

"What Realm?"

"Grand Unity Golden Immortal…"

"…"

"…"

Han Jue was speechless.

Huang Zuntian was overwhelmed with shame, his whole body trembling.

Busy struggling for power, he hadn't fought someone of the same Realm for too long. A single lapse during the battle led to him being sealed by the opponent; looking back, he felt incredibly weak.

Han Jue sighed and said, "I don't blame you. You truly have no talent for combat."

Huang Zuntian was extremely embarrassed; he really wanted to say he had talent too.

Back then in the Mortal Realm, he was an invincible existence among those of the same Realm, until he met Han Jue.

He didn't have the face to say it, so he could only lower his head and remain silent.

"Since that's the case, then lurk within the Fate Faction, just as you once lurked within the Jie Sect. Can you do that?" Han Jue asked.

Huang Zuntian suddenly looked up and said, "That is exactly what I was thinking—to redeem myself through service!"

Han Jue said, "Protect yourself. If there is an Opportunity, I will find a way to save you."

"Don't. If I need you to save me, then I am truly useless. Just let me lurk within Fate. In the future, whatever you want to know, I can help obtain intelligence for you."

Maybe I can even give you a surprise!

Huang Zuntian did not say this out loud; after all, this was the Chaos, different from the Heavenly Dao.

Compared to the Heavenly Dao, the Chaos had fewer schemes and more of the law of the jungle, where might makes right.

One can't be too careful!

If Huang Zuntian were to be killed directly by some brute, wouldn't that be a disgrace?

Han Jue said, "Fine, let it be so."

The dream ended.

Han Jue opened his eyes, feeling somewhat helpless.

It had to be said, Fate was indeed quite powerful.

Li Daokong, Shi Duxiao, Ancestor Xitian, and Huang Zuntian had all been captured.

If it was like this just for the Heavenly Dao, looking at the entire Chaos, how much power had Initial Fate Black Venerable accumulated?

"Why aren't there any powerful Great Dao Supremes going to find trouble with Initial Fate Black Venerable? They all just keep hanging around me."

Han Jue thought resentfully.

Perhaps Initial Fate Black Venerable was in more danger than him, but the fellow had ways to escape.

After all, this fellow possessed the Great Dao Fortune Divine Authority; even Pangu could not completely kill him.

Han Jue continued to look down at the mail.

It was all opportunities and getting beaten, which could no longer catch Han Jue's attention.

Han Jue turned his gaze toward the Hundred Peaks Immortal River.

He found that the Black Prison Chicken had already become a Pseudo-Saint but had not come to find him.

He performed a calculation and couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

It turned out that because the Chaos Heavenly Dog, Ah Da, Xiao Er, and the other Personal Disciples had not reached the Pseudo-Saint Realm, the Black Prison Chicken was waiting for them.

They wanted to find Han Jue together because they guessed that once they did, they would leave the Hundred Peaks Immortal River.

After more than a million years, these fellows were closely bonded and were reluctant to leave each other behind.

Not bad at all.

Under Han Jue's sect, the Disciples had each formed different small circles, but fortunately, there were no conflicts for now.

Mainly because both the Heavenly Dao and the Hidden Gate were developing, and they could still grow, so no points of conflict existed.

Once the Hidden Gate could no longer expand and they could no longer grow stronger, they would only be able to struggle for power and profit within the existing forces.

Han Jue was never afraid of internal strife among his Disciples.

Whoever messed around could just be thrown into the Hongmeng Heavenly Prison.

Just then.

Han Jue sensed a familiar aura.

The Chaos Demon God, Hong Yuan!

Han Jue immediately detected her existence using the Simulation Trial.

[Hong Yuan: Late Stage Great Dao Primordial Chaos Realm, Chaos Demon God. Her favorability toward you has increased because you killed the Despair Dao Spirit. Current favorability: 3 stars.]

This favorability had appeared during the previous gathering of Demon Gods; Han Jue hadn't paid it any mind at the time.

A beautiful skeleton approaching me deliberately must have some scheme!

And here she comes?

Han Jue immediately began a Simulation Trial.

Three breaths later, he opened his eyes, his brow slightly furrowed.

He conducted another Simulation Trial.

One breath later, he opened his eyes and let out a sigh of relief.

A sudden killing intent burst forth from Han Jue's eyes.

Should he just kill this fellow?

To avoid bringing trouble… No, the other party has no hatred degree toward him; how could he kill her?

Han Jue never killed friends.

Furthermore, killing Hong Yuan would surely cause the Chaos Demon Gods to attack in a swarm, bringing a hundred harms and not a single benefit.

Forget it!

Han Jue created a Clone to go meet Hong Yuan.

Hong Yuan was waiting in the Dark Forbidden Zone. Seeing Han Jue appear, she revealed a smile as beautiful as a flower, enough to captivate all beings; however, in Han Jue's eyes, her smile looked quite crafty.

Han Jue asked, "For what reason has Fellow Daoist Hong Yuan come?"

Hong Yuan covered her mouth and laughed. "Didn't you invite me? Fellow Daoist Han appeared quite quickly. I thought I would have to wait a while longer. The Heavenly Dao is truly a good place; even we Great Dao Saints cannot enter at will."

Han Jue smiled and said, "Then there must be a reason for your visit, right?"

What do you mean?

You still want to enter at will?

Han Jue almost wanted to draw his axe.

"The reason is that I want to become familiar with Fellow Daoist Han. After living for so many years, only Fellow Daoist Han's looks suit my taste, and since we are both Chaos Demon Gods, I naturally want to be close," Hong Yuan laughed, her posture deliberately bashful.

Han Jue was not deluded; they were both billion-year-old foxes. Even 'Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio' wouldn't be enough for them to talk about.

Even if what she said was true, she probably just wanted to cling to Han Jue's leg.

But Han Jue was afraid of trouble!

"Recently, a special space-time has appeared at the Chaos Source, which may contain Great Fortune. Is Fellow Daoist Han willing to go with me? We can improve our relationship along the way. Perhaps after this trip, you and I will become Dao Companions," Hong Yuan asked with a smile.

Han Jue said, "I already have Dao Companions, and more than one. I once indulged in countless pleasures, but later saw through the Mortal World and began to cultivate bitterly as I do today. I no longer need a Dao Companion. Thank you for your favor, Fellow Daoist Hong Yuan."

Hong Yuan said with a squinting smile, "It's fine, I don't mind. Fellow Daoist Han, don't be in such a hurry to refuse. What if you suddenly change your mind in the future?"

Han Jue chuckled and said, "Then we shall talk about it in the future."

"Then are you going or not?"

"Forget it. It's too far from the Heavenly Dao; I'm afraid of dying."

"You're afraid I'll harm you? How could that be?"

"Even if Fellow Daoist Hong Yuan doesn't harm me, what if we encounter an enemy? Or what if a Great Dao Supreme passes by and finds the two of us an eyesore?"

"Your thoughts are truly strange. How could a Great Dao Supreme be so easy to encounter, and even strike regardless of Karma?"

Hong Yuan shook her head and laughed, finding Han Jue increasingly interesting.

Han Jue was helpless.

He'd said this much already, and she still didn't understand?

Does he have to drop all pretenses?
