'Honestly, trying to act all proud and unyielding under a gaze like that would be just plain stupid.'
Fortunately, the gaze didn't linger for long.
A moment later, the boundless, oppressive might receded like a tide.
Xu Yunfan clearly sensed the gaze linger for a moment on the wisp of Heart Fragrance he had offered—the one containing the true nature of Divine Sky and the Mental Realm of Profound Vault Undying. In that instant, it revealed a faint but genuine hint of satisfaction.
Then, the gaze vanished as if it had never been there.
Xu Yunfan felt his back drenched in a cold sweat.
'The Primordial Daoist Lord... he was just looking at me.'
"Good."
True Monarch Pu Du's voice rang out again, tinged with relieved ease and a hint of joy.
He rose to his feet, the compassionate, peaceful smile returning to his face. His gaze toward Xu Yunfan now held a newfound, genuine warmth and approval.
