Chapter 8539
- Divine Monk Yu Hao, who was dressed in a black monk's robe, moved like the wind. The benevolent and dignified expression that could usually be seen on his face was replaced by a surprised expression when he saw the purple-clad young man who stood across from him. How could he not be surprised? After all, this was not a scenario that he had anticipated. He had assumed that Duan Ling Tian, the God Defying Sword from the Surging River Divine Kingdom, was just a level-eight Dao Establishment powerhouse, stronger than Hong Dong Chuan but weaker than Elder Chui, one of the Temple of the Bitter Sea's trump cards.
- Earlier, when Duan Ling Tian refused Elder Chui's challenge, Yu Hao assumed that Duan Ling Tian did not have the confidence to defeat Elder Chui. Elder Chui was indeed a trump card of the Temple of the Bitter Sea, but the real trump card was the divine monk, Bai Yan, a level-nine Dao Establishment powerhouse.
- Jiang Hai Shan was not weak. A thousand years ago, Yu Hao managed to defeat Jiang Haishan by a close margin. However, this time, he did not think he would be able to defeat Jiang Hai Shan. This was because his improvement over the past one thousand years had been minimal. For this reason, he planned to let Bai Yan exhaust Jiang Hai Shan first before he stepped in to deal the final blow.
