Chapter 402: Jun Xiaoyao Makes His Move, Princess Long Ji Misunderstands, All According to Plan
"What an interesting sight."
Jun Xiaoyao softly chuckled to himself.
An ancient anomaly like Princess Long Ji, rarely finds herself in such a predicament.
Aside from being crushed by Jun Xiaoyao last time, this should be the second time Princess Long Ji is so distressed.
On the side, Lei Mingyuan swallowed quietly upon witnessing this scene.
Jun Xiaoyao didn't even lift a finger, merely using some minor tactics, and made an ancient anomaly so embarrassed.
Just thinking about it was terrifying.
"He could have crushed her with raw power, yet he opted to toy with her, manipulating her at his whim," Lei Mingyuan inwardly sighed.
Those on the same side as Jun Xiaoyao would feel very secure.
But if one were his enemy, it would be tragic.
"Lord Divine Son, what fine methods, ensnaring Princess Long Ji without shedding any blood," Lei Mingyuan flattered, praising.
"Do you think my goal is merely to kill Princess Long Ji? That would be too simple," Jun Xiaoyao shook his head slightly, smiling.
"What, that's not the goal?" Lei Mingyuan was stunned.
He assumed Jun Xiaoyao was on the 5th layer.
In reality, Jun Xiaoyao was likely on the 10th layer.
Such deep thoughts and scheming were too chilling.
"Let's continue to watch; Princess Long Ji is not miserable enough yet," Jun Xiaoyao said.
In the canyon, Princess Long Ji would certainly not give up, still resisting.
After refining the Blood of the Ancient Azure Dragon Emperor, Princess Long Ji's power surged in all aspects. Exterminating her wouldn't be easy.
The celestial prides of the four major races all felt extremely strained.
Of course, Princess Long Ji couldn't escape from the killing array.
In short, dragging things out was absolutely detrimental to Princess Long Ji.
As time went on, the power of the killing array seemed to grow stronger.
Even Princess Long Ji began to show injuries, with a trace of fresh blood at the corner of her lips.
She indeed had many extraordinarily powerful protective items.
Yet due to the special rules of the Immortal Ancient World, some protective items exceeding a certain power limit couldn't be used.
Thus, Princess Long Ji could only rely on her own strength to escape.
But she just couldn't get out.
As time flowed, Princess Long Ji became more and more embarrassed and miserable, coughing up blood from the corner of her mouth.
The snow-white jade body bore numerous sword wounds, the blood stark against the porcelain white skin, extremely striking.
"Despicable!"
Princess Long Ji's green tresses floated wildly, her face icy cold.
Aside from the previous harsh beating by Jun Xiaoyao, Princess Long Ji had never been so humiliated.
At this moment, within the killing array, array patterns flickered.
Numerous sword qi converged into a thousand-foot sword radiance, slashing down towards Princess Long Ji.
Princess Long Ji activated the Dragon Emperor Supreme Technique, the defensive divine technique from the Dragon Emperor Scripture, the Golden Dragon Immortal Shield.
A giant golden dragon rose, coiling tightly, transforming into a golden dragon shield.
The sword radiance slashed against the dragon shield, breaking it apart within moments.
There was a resounding crash!
Princess Long Ji was violently forced back, spitting blood, suddenly gravely injured.
The killing array's power exceeded the usual True God Realm limits, even Princess Long Ji couldn't endure it; her flesh body severely damaged.
"Good opportunity!"
The celestial prides of the four major races saw this, their eyes bursting with cold radiance.
They naturally wouldn't miss this chance.
The four celestial prides erupted with their strongest divine techniques, terrifying waves sweeping out, transforming into an apocalypse tide, blasting towards Princess Long Ji in the array.
Feeling the wave, a hint of hidden despair seeped into Princess Long Ji's eyes.
"Is this the day I, the princess, die here?" Princess Long Ji clenched her silver teeth.
As one of the earliest emerging ancient anomalies, she should have had the advantage, risen strongly, and become the most dazzling existence.
But encountering Jun Xiaoyao seemed to have drained all her luck.
The journey had some rough patches.
And now she faced a life-threatening crisis.
"Ha, finally about to die!" In the shadows, Ao Luan showed a hint of delight gleaming in her beautiful eyes.
However, just as despair enveloped Princess Long Ji's heart.
A streak of sword light slashed horizontally out of nowhere!
It wasn't a sword light from within the killing array, but the Immortal Slaying Sword Technique's sword light!
With a thunderous echo, the mana torrent from the four races combining was directly cut apart by this sword light.
Soon after, a gentle male voice with a hint of mirth rang, "Princess Long Ji, you seem a bit embarrassed now."
In the void, a white-clothed, gracefully tall figure with misty immortal aura emerged.
It was Jun Xiaoyao!
With hands behind his back, his stunningly handsome face held an amused expression as he observed from the outside the pitiful state of Princess Long Ji within the killing array.
"Jun... Xiaoyao!"
Princess Long Ji's beautiful eyes locked onto Jun Xiaoyao, as if ready to spit fire, her silver teeth nearly ground to dust.
At this final moment, Jun Xiaoyao indeed appeared, and he even mocked her.
This was proof enough that the mastermind was indeed Jun Xiaoyao.
But just like Princess Long Ji, the celestial prides of the four races were equally surprised.
"Who is he?"
The celestial prides of the four races were stunned; none knew who this mysterious Jun Xiaoyao was, nor why he appeared so suddenly.
At the rear, Lei Mingyuan watched this scene also quite taken aback.
He hadn't expected Jun Xiaoyao would intervene at the last moment.
Wasn't Princess Long Ji his enemy?
Logically, Jun Xiaoyao should have been pleased to see Princess Long Ji fall.
Lei Mingyuan's mind was now in a bewildered state.
Jun Xiaoyao wasn't playing by any predictable rules.
Here, Princess Long Ji was practically exploding with rage.
It was one thing for Jun Xiaoyao to ensnare her, but to appear and taunt her was outright heart-wrenching.
Yet the next moment, Princess Long Ji froze.
Because the celestial prides from the four races spoke up.
"Who are you, what do you intend?" asked the celestial pride from the Wind Spirit Race.
In their eyes was a touch of solemnity.
Jun Xiaoyao's aura felt abyssal, eluding their perception.
"Noisy."
Jun Xiaoyao's eyes cold, extended a finger.
The Thunder Emperor's Great Divine Techniques' top attack and kill technique, Thunder Emperor Finger was executed.
A thunderous giant finger condensed and, with lightning speed, pressed toward the celestial pride from the Wind Spirit Race.
The Wind Spirit Race's celestial pride, unable even to react, had no chance to escape, directly pierced through with one finger, exploding on the spot!
The entire heaven and earth sank into deathly silence.
The other three races' celestial prides' heads buzzed, mouths agape.
The Wind Spirit Race's celestial pride of Late Stage True God Realm was unexpectedly point-killed by this newly emerged young lord.
This was simply unbelievable!
"Attack together!"
The celestial pride from the Thunder Ape Race loudly demanded.
The celestial prides from the Rock Demon Race and Vajra Race also moved simultaneously.
The three races' celestial prides simultaneously struck towards Jun Xiaoyao.
Watching this, Princess Long Ji was bewildered too.
"What's happening?"
Princess Long Ji was confused.
The mastermind wasn't Jun Xiaoyao; why did he act?
In the shadows, Ao Luan's heart also trembled hard, she gasped uncontrollably.
This young lord abruptly appearing was terrifyingly powerful, killing the Wind Spirit Race celestial pride with a single finger.
"He is Jun Xiaoyao, how could the outside world have such a mighty celestial pride?" Ao Luan couldn't believe in her heart.
And Bai Mei'Er, though maintaining her expression, had eyes filled with fanatical admiration and worship.
Everything was within Jun Xiaoyao's plan!
