Chapter 2309: Holy River! (2/2)
It was clear that he was persuading his friend to give up on a hopeless dream.
“Whatever the case, one can hope.” Di Huai didn’t explain the situation, and he simply brushed Emperor Yu’s concerns off.
“It seems like you’re pretty confident in the little brat. I wonder what saint godhead he has? Do you have some sort of special complete dao saint godhead?”
There were several members who managed to enter the Holy Heavens because of several special attributes. Even though their saint attributes didn’t rank in the top one hundred, they were accepted into the organization.
Even though Di Huai knew that Huang Xiaolong could constantly evolve his saint attributes, he had never seen Huang Xiaolong’s godhead in person. In fact, he had no idea about Huang Xiaolong’s progress!
“Senior Emperor Yu, my godhead ranks in the top nine hundred.” Huang Xiaolong reported truthfully.
As soon as he spoke, the hall turned silent. The members of the Emperor Yu Holy Gate stared at Huang Xiaolong in shock.
A ‘pfft’ was heard in the air, and someone burst into laughter.
Looking in the direction of the laughter, they discovered that it was a Holy Prince of the Emperor Yu Holy Gate.
“Nine… Nine hundred?” Emperor Yu’s expression changed. He stared at Di Huai and asked, “Is this the top talent of the Zhuoyuan Holy Gate?!”
If it was an ordinary Holy Prince, no one would have laughed at the fact that their saint attributes ranked in the nine hundred. However, Huang Xiaolong was the chief disciple of the Holy Princes! His talent was definitely lacking when they had to compare leaders of Holy Princes of the different Holy Gates.
In stark contrast, Di Huai’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. When Huang Xiaolong first entered the Holy Gate, his saint attributes ranked in the four thousand! How did he improve it by more than three thousand ranks in such a short amount of time?!
This…
It took less than twenty years!
Wouldn’t that mean that…?
Di Huai didn’t care to continue thinking in the direction as beads of cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
He finally realized that he had severely underestimated Huang Xiaolong’s talent!
“Brother Di Huai!” Emperor Yu’s voice suddenly rang in his mind, and he snapped back to reality.
“Brother Yu, may I inquire as to when the Holy River will be opening its gate?” Di Huai asked all of a sudden. “I wish to ask for a slot in the Holy River….”
This time, he wasn’t merely there to visit his old friend. He wanted to let Huang Xiaolong enter the Holy River of the Emperor Yu Holy Grounds along the way.
That was Di Huai’s main goal of the trip!
The Holy River of the Emperor Yu Holy Gate was extremely beneficial to those with high talent. If Huang Xiaolong could cultivate in the Holy River, he would gain a whole lot!
Even though Huang Xiaolong had already entered the Venerable Realm, his absolute strength was a little too lacking. After all, Venerables were merely weaklings in the eyes of Half Saints. Di Huai really wished that Huang Xiaolong could use the chance to enter the mid-level Venerable Realm!
According to his calculations, the Holy River would be opening soon!
“Holy River?” Emperor Yu stared at Huang Xiaolong for a second. Then, a troubled look appeared on his face, and he turned to face Di Huai. “This… Even though the Holy River will be opening in three days, I can only send five people into it!”
