Chương 26: Chapter 26 Whispers

"Master Nero, forgive my hesitation, but speaking so boldly might not be advisable," Kiara offered tentatively, a note of uncertainty threading through her words. 

The sheer audacity of our op mc's statement left her feeling perplexed and somewhat uncomfortable. 

In her experience, even her sect master, a revered figure who had attained the Celestial Ascension Realm, commanded immense respect—a pedestal she could only gaze upon with reverence. 

The idea of a true Dao Lord, whose legendary presence spanned across realms, seemed beyond the realm of possibility.

In her mind, she struggled to reconcile our op mc's claim with the realities she knew. 

The stature of a Dao Lord was shrouded in myth and awe, spoken of in hushed tones among cultivators, their prowess and wisdom transcending mortal limitations. 

To Kiara, our op mc's declaration appeared more like an audacious boast than a statement grounded in reality.
