Of course not!
Hou Niao had observed all night. What he had actually observed was not merely the dazzling array of techniques from Anhe Daoist, but more importantly, the situation of the Soul Ghosts.
What worried him was that although Soul Ghosts had appeared incessantly throughout the night, there had been few of higher realms; compared simply, they were weaker than those he and Tideng had encountered before. If the purpose was for Soul Beads, the harvest this night would be minimal. Despite the furious battle, the true gains were limited.
Why was this so? One possibility was the significant impact he and Tideng Monk had left here on the Soul Ghosts previously, but he felt this was unlikely. Another possibility was that the Soul Ghosts were feigning weakness under the control of some higher being?
Could it be so?
