The two beams of light landed among the crowd in the blink of an eye. Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu looked closely and found that they were two sets of armor.
These two sets of armor, except for the color, were identical in style.
One was sky blue, and the other was sky cyan.
These two suits of armor were fully enclosed, with two sharp blade-like horns on top of the head, a triangular faceplate on the face, and a streamlined mechanical design on the arms and chest. There was also a groove on the chest where a reactor was placed.
Further down were the abdomen and waist, followed by a skirt of chains and scales below the waist, and then streamlined leg armor and boots.
Wan Lei carefully noticed that there was a small round hole in the palm of each of these armors, and there was light within the small holes.
"These two sets of battle armor were designed by us, imitating the original Five Luminaries Battle Armor.
The Five Luminaries Battle Armor was originally the battle armor of the Five Luminaries Divine Generals under the command of the Ghost Emperor of the Ghost Realm. The Ghost Emperor, desiring the position of Ghost Emperor, engaged in an earth-shattering battle with the Ghost Emperor, a battle that directly shattered the Ghost Realm continent into ten pieces.
Of course, the Ghost Emperor here refers to the first-generation Ghost Emperor, not our friend, the second-generation Ghost Emperor.
The Ghost Emperor Realm was later destroyed by the Ghost Emperor, and the Five Luminaries Battle Armor was sealed.
Later, the five of us, when we were still at the Core Formation stage, obtained the Five Luminaries Battle Armor, and from then on, they accompanied us in our battles all the way to the final decisive battle with the God Clan.
After becoming Immortal Venerables, we repaired the Five Luminaries Battle Armor, and now they are on our children.
Based on the different attributes of the battle armor, we designed the Thunder Luminaries Battle Armor and the Wind Luminaries Battle Armor, suitable for cultivators with thunder or wind attributes. You are their first owners."
Xia Dayu waved his hand, and the two sets of battle armor entered Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu's bodies.
"These two sets of battle armor are simple and easy to use. They are powered by the Dao Rhyme reactor, or they can be powered by yourselves.
The chest is where the reactor is placed, and the palm cannons can fire lasers and your own attribute attacks.
They can nullify ninety percent of any form of damage, whether it's energy attacks, divine abilities, or even spiritual attacks. They are also completely immune to poisonous gas and memetic infections. Below the level of a Saint, no one can break them."
Hearing the capabilities of the battle armor, Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu's eyes sparkled.
Their original battle armor had been blown to pieces in the final battle with the Demon Race, and in subsequent battles, they had to rely on their physical bodies to withstand damage.
With this armor, they would be practically invincible.
"Thank you, Immortal Venerable."
The Immortal Venerable has been too kind to us. How can we repay them? Should we offer ourselves in return...
Wan Lei mused to himself. Offering himself meant doing whatever the Immortal Venerable asked, fighting whoever they commanded, selling his soul to the Immortal Venerable to become their lackey and pawn...
Wan Qingyi smiled and waved, saying,
"Alright, everything that could be told to you has been told. After you go back, digest it yourselves, understand the heavy responsibility on your shoulders, and most importantly, do not disgrace the Immortal Venerable. The Immortal Venerable rarely cultivates anyone personally.
Oh, right, after you get back, find Xi Sha and apologize. Coax her a bit; you really scared her last time."
Upon hearing this, Fang Xiaoyu looked at Wan Lei in surprise. What exactly had this guy done to the Water Hall Master?
She had only heard Wan Lei say he was going to ask the Water Hall Master for help, and he got angry when she refused, even scaring her. But how did he scare her?
A Taiyi realm cultivator scaring a Saint?
"Junior disciples take their leave."
Wan Lei and the two bowed with clasped palms and turned to leave.
Suddenly, a crisp shout came from behind,
"Wait a moment."
The two turned back, and upon seeing the playful, teasing smile on Fire Immortal Venerable Han Xiaoyu's lips, Wan Lei suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Wan Lei, am I beautiful?"
Hearing this, Water Immortal Venerable Han Xiaofeng rubbed his forehead in exasperation. Knowing his wife's mischievous nature, he didn't need to guess that she was about to start something.
Wan Lei was stunned. With your words, does the setting of the most beautiful woman in the prime plane need me to say it? No woman can compare to you.
"Uh... your beauty is naturally unparalleled in all eras. Even the Four Great Beauties of the Five Elements Hall pale in comparison before you, unable to lift their heads."
With these words, it was as if he had seen the other three great beauties besides Xi Sha.
However, flattery always works, and one must not offend the Immortal Venerable.
"Oh? Is that so?"
Han Xiaoyu's high-raised corners of her mouth grew more triumphant, her pretty face blooming with radiance, and the playfulness in her eyes became more seductive and captivating.
"Then, who is more beautiful, you or the one beside you?"
Fang Xiaoyu's heart stirred. She quietly moved a little farther away from Wan Lei, waiting for his answer to this life-or-death question.
Answering that his wife was more beautiful might displease the Immortal Venerable, as Fire Immortal Venerable's beauty was her greatest pride.
Answering that the Immortal Venerable was more beautiful would be like a centenarian eating poison – his wife would at least ignore him for a year.
But Wan Lei, as expected of someone with the protagonist's halo, handled problems better than others.
He grabbed Fang Xiaoyu's small hand and quickly fled towards the clouds below, shouting loudly,
"North and south, Xiaoyu is the most beautiful!"
Han Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth and chuckled,
"Little trickster."
Wan Lei's answer pleased both sides.
Fang Xiaoyu and Han Xiaoyu were both named Xiaoyu.
His quick escape was to prevent the Immortal Venerable from forcing him to specify which Xiaoyu he was referring to.
Wan Qingyi slowly got up and packed all the fruits on the table. These were all good things grown by the Immortal Venerable.
Only then did he catch up with Wan Lei.
The three arrived at the Sacred Hall below, and as they were about to fly towards the Thunder Hall, they suddenly heard someone calling from behind,
"Wan San, why the hurry to leave?"
Turning around, Wan Lei quickly bowed,
"Greetings, Sword Saint."
Fang Xiaoyu curiously observed the handsome young man with a playful smile. Was this the legendary Sword Saint? It didn't seem like it.
"Finished your business, why aren't you going back?"
Wan Qingyi replied.
"What's the rush? Susan cooked a few dishes, let's go have a drink together."
"You're being this generous?"
Wan Qingyi looked at Wan Jianyi with disbelief. When did this guy become so magnanimous?
"Who invited you? My descendants of the Wan family performed so well today, it's only fitting that I treat them to a meal to celebrate. Come if you want, don't if you don't."
Saying that, Wan Jianyi put his arm around Wan Lei's shoulder and hooked arms with him, flying towards Sword Peak.
He had no airs at all. The two looked like brothers.
Wan Qingyi, hearing that he could get a free meal and that the other party had no ill intentions, immediately followed.
"Wan San, did you steal any fruit?"
"Am I that kind of person?"
"Then why are you following? Go back early, I won't escort you."
"What I mean is, am I the kind of person who *doesn't* steal?"
"Oh, I happened to save a spot for you."
