Chapter 610 Hu Qingqing's Ally
"I don't mean to belittle your master, but the Scion of the Jun Family is indeed no ordinary person."
Being able to become a rival to Heavenly Maiden Yuan, Hu Qingqing is no fool.
She understands who can be provoked and who cannot.
Jun Xiaoyao is someone who cannot be provoked.
Regardless of his future prospects, at least now on the Ultimate Ancient Path, those qualified to provoke Jun Xiaoyao can be counted on one's fingers.
"Hmph... I think you're overestimating that Jun Family Scion. He's cursed by the Heavenly Dao, destined to never achieve the Way. Before long, he'll fade into obscurity among the masses."
"While my master is a born Sacred Spirit, destined to become an existence that rivals Great Emperors and contends with Ancient Sovereigns."
This young man spoke with fanatical worship for his master.
That kind of worship was just like the Jun Family sequence's worship of Jun Xiaoyao, it had practically become a faith.
"I certainly understand your master's strength, but..." Hu Qingqing sighed softly.
The master mentioned by this young man was definitely powerful, one of the taboos of the Ultimate Ancient Path.
However, at present, that taboo figure was occupied with other matters and hadn't come to Shangqiu Ancient Star, instead sending his subordinate to make contact.
With such an ally, Hu Qingqing had originally been full of confidence.
Unfortunately, an unexpected challenger had appeared.
"Never mind, let's go in first. Today, that item must be acquired at the auction, as it might help the Taie Divine Temple," Hu Qingqing said with determination.
Within the Taie Divine Temple, there were things related to mythical emperors, and even immortals.
If she could obtain the opportunities within, surpassing Heavenly Maiden Yuan and becoming the next leader of the Divine Maiden Pavilion would be virtually certain.
The crowd of prodigies entered the treasure hall.
The interior was vast, able to accommodate a hundred thousand beings.
Those prodigies of highest status, like Hu Qingqing, the young master of Heavenly Treasure Sect, the young sect leader of Thunder Shock Sect and others, all sat in the front row seats.
An elder from the Myriad Races Commerce Association took the stage as host.
His cultivation had reached the Sacred King realm, sufficient to maintain order.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming lively, a calm and gentle voice sounded faintly from outside.
"As expected of the Myriad Races Commerce Alliance's trading event, it's quite lively."
"He's here, he's here, the main character has arrived..."
Hearing this voice, everyone's gaze simultaneously turned toward the entrance.
Three figures strolled in leisurely.
Jun Xiaoyao was stroking the Yin Jade Rabbit in his arms, while Heavenly Maiden Yuan stayed close by his side, appearing docile.
Lu Renjia walked on the other side, sticking out his large belly with a face full of pride and arrogance, looking like he was borrowing authority.
After all, when had someone of his status ever enjoyed such universal attention?
Only by following Jun Xiaoyao could he bask in a bit of glory.
Seeing Heavenly Maiden Yuan's wife-like demeanor, countless male cultivators felt heartbroken.
The goddess they could only admire from afar had willingly attached herself to Jun Xiaoyao.
Perhaps, this is what life is about.
"Is that the Jun Family Scion?" Hu Qingqing's gaze immediately fell upon Jun Xiaoyao.
Her beautiful eyes suddenly brightened.
Truthfully, although she had heard countless stories about Jun Xiaoyao, when she actually saw him, she was still amazed.
But the Heavenly Maiden Yuan beside him was quite eye-catching.
Hu Qingqing's eyes shifted, and she stood up directly, swaying her slender waist and buttocks as she walked toward Jun Xiaoyao.
"So this is the renowned Jun Family Scion. Seeing is indeed believing—truly a divine figure," Hu Qingqing said with a seductive smile.
Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained calm. Seeing the nine tails behind Hu Qingqing's buttocks, he knew her identity.
A noble lady of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan.
This reminded Jun Xiaoyao of the previous Heavenly Maiden Bai Mei'er from the Fox Clan.
The Fox Clan was an ancient royal race, while the current Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan was a true ancient imperial race.
"Hu Qingqing, where is that ally you chose?" Heavenly Maiden Yuan stepped forward, standing in front of Jun Xiaoyao like a protective hen guarding her food.
Having finally won over Jun Xiaoyao, she naturally wouldn't allow Hu Qingqing any opportunity to take advantage.
"Hehe, what's this? Is the Divine Scion yours alone? Are others not allowed to speak to him?" Hu Qingqing's enchanting gaze fell on Jun Xiaoyao as she smiled seductively.
"Divine Scion, what do you see in Heavenly Maiden Yuan? Is it her appearance, figure, or... technique? I possess all these qualities, and better than hers."
It must be said that the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan was born with seductive bones.
Hu Qingqing's every smile, every action, carried bewitching power.
Combined with her devilish curves, she was indeed an irresistible beauty.
Her temperament truly matched that of the Divine Maiden Pavilion's top courtesan.
Heavenly Maiden Yuan, on the other hand, was more like an unworldly immortal who had accidentally fallen into the mortal realm.
"Heavenly Maiden Yuan, do you smell something?" Jun Xiaoyao suddenly asked.
"What smell?" Heavenly Maiden Yuan's eyes were glistening.
"The musky smell of a fox," Jun Xiaoyao said coldly.
Hu Qingqing's seductive expression instantly froze, flushing with embarrassment, feeling utterly humiliated.
Among the Seven Divine Maidens, she was second only to Heavenly Maiden Yuan, with countless men falling at her feet.
Now, being ridiculed by Jun Xiaoyao this way made her feel incredibly ashamed.
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze was cold. Though still a virgin, he had some understanding of women.
Women like Heavenly Maiden Yuan, though in the mortal world, had cold and pure hearts, showing no favor to any man, never allowing them to get close.
Only in front of Jun Xiaoyao would she put down her pride and become a truly ordinary woman.
As for this Hu Qingqing, she would offer such seductive smiles to any powerful prodigy.
Such a woman, let alone touching his precious body, even being slightly close made him displeased.
Jun Xiaoyao's words brought a faint hint of joy to the corners of Heavenly Maiden Yuan's eyes.
Although Jun Xiaoyao still maintained some guard and distance with her, at least his attitude toward her was different from that toward outsiders.
Seeing Hu Qingqing being ridiculed this way, the young man sitting in the front row suddenly stood up and said coldly: "Jun Family Scion, mind your words. Lady Hu Qingqing is my master's ally."
Jun Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow slightly.
Before he could say anything, Lu Renjia beside him rebuked: "Are you trying to teach my young master how to behave? And... don't drag your master into this to intimidate us!"
"Hmph, my master is the Young Sacred Spirit of Sacred Spirit Island, Mo Jinyu!" The young man spoke with a tone of reverence.
These words shocked the entire venue.
"What? It's actually that taboo prodigy from Sacred Spirit Island, Mo Jinyu!"
"Sacred Spirit Island only has a few successors each generation, and this Mo Jinyu is the best among them. His true form is a Nine-Aperture Stone Spirit, rumored to have the potential to become a Great Accomplished Sacred Spirit!"
A Great Accomplished Sacred Spirit was an existence that could stand shoulder to shoulder with Great Emperors and Ancient Sovereigns!
And for Mo Jinyu to earn the title of Young Sacred Spirit showed his unparalleled talent in the current era.
He was absolutely one of the strongest taboos on the Ultimate Ancient Path!
Hearing the young man's words, Lu Renjia's throat tightened, his expression becoming unnatural, unable to speak.
Evidently, he had also heard of this Young Sacred Spirit from Sacred Spirit Island.
That was indeed a figure whose name shook the Ancient Path.
The Sacred Spirit race, nourished by heaven and earth, bathed in sun and moon, could in some sense be considered beings born of nature.
Such beings were very much favored and blessed by the Heavenly Dao.
At the same realm, they were almost invincible.
Many people were also curious: what would happen if an invincible Sacred Spirit at the same level clashed with an invincible Ancient Sacred Physique?
