SACRED BODY OF THE IMMORTALS

Ji Qingyi and Jun Xiaoyao locked eyes.

Anyone who didn't know better might think they were long-separated lovers gazing at each other.

Ji Qingyi's expression paused slightly, revealing a faint smile as she said: "Young Master Jun's words truly make me feel a bit sad."

Ji Qingyi's voice was soft, enough to evoke sympathy in anyone who heard it.

Jun Xiaoyao, however, had no intention of underestimating Ji Qingyi.

Previously in the Desolate Celestial Domain, Ji Qingyi had maintained an extremely low profile.

Even then, Jun Xiaoyao believed that this woman, elegant as a lotus, possessed a clever mind and profound depth that should not be taken lightly.

If one were to treat her as an ordinary woman, they would surely pay a heavy price.

"Previously, my follower Yan Qingying killed the follower of that Human Immortal Sect successor, and you are that mysterious successor's assistant."

"Tell me, should I not ask you this question?" Jun Xiaoyao asked calmly.

His refusal to underestimate Ji Qingyi didn't mean he feared her.

Now that Jun Xiaoyao had broken through to the Grand Saint realm, he actually didn't need to worry about any schemes or plots.

He could simply use his strength to overwhelm everything.

If that Human Immortal Sect successor wanted to play any tricks, he could simply eliminate him.

"I am indeed that successor's assistant, but that doesn't mean I can't be friends with Young Master Jun," Ji Qingyi said.

"Friends?" A strange light flashed in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.

"Or perhaps..." Ji Qingyi paused, her clear eyes glancing sideways as she said: "Young Master Jun has the ability to persuade me and bring me over to your side."

After speaking, Ji Qingyi revealed an elegant, charming smile.

It was impossible to tell whether her words meant persuasion or seduction.

"You can relay to him that if he doesn't provoke me, I won't pursue the matter. But if he doesn't know what's good for him..." Jun Xiaoyao paused, then continued.

"Then the Human Immortal Sect can start training their next successor."

Using the most casual tone to say the most domineering words.

It could be said that throughout the entire Ultimate Ancient Path, few people could address that Human Immortal Sect successor with such an attitude.

Ji Qingyi was also surprised, then slightly nodded her delicate head and said: "I will relay the message."

"By the way, why do you always wear a veil? Are you afraid of someone seeing you?" Jun Xiaoyao asked casually.

Hearing this, Ji Qingyi suddenly raised her slender jade hand and removed her veil.

In that instant, her revealed exquisite beauty caused even Jun Xiaoyao, who was accustomed to seeing divine women and fairy consorts, to be momentarily surprised.

"No beauty is eternal, but a pleasing sight is a lovely person," Jun Xiaoyao said.

He wasn't infatuated at all, merely expressing genuine admiration.

Ji Qingyi blinked her clear eyes. Though unsure if Jun Xiaoyao was sincere, being praised by someone as excellent as him still brought a hint of joy to her heart.

"Is this the sweet talk Young Master Jun used to make Jiang Shengyi devoted to you until death?"

"Is this divine son that kind of person?" Jun Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow.

Ji Qingyi smiled gently and said: "My face has only been shown to Young Master Jun alone. Even that successor from my sect hasn't seen it."

Though she was that successor's assistant, their relationship wasn't particularly intimate.

Of course, that Human Immortal Sect successor had hoped to become her dao partner, but Ji Qingyi had refused.

"So this is my honor then?"

"Naturally."

After that, the atmosphere became somewhat more harmonious.

Regardless of what Ji Qingyi might be hiding, at least she was unwilling to offend Jun Xiaoyao.

And Jun Xiaoyao couldn't be bothered to investigate further.

Wu Hu and the Temple Guardian were silently cultivating.

The surrounding crowd of onlookers hadn't dispersed.

They knew that the more exciting show was yet to come.

With ten thousand members of the Cang family perishing here, the Hegemon Star's Cang family would certainly not let the matter rest.

And Jun Xiaoyao would also step onto Hegemon Star, leading the Ancient Sacred Temple and the Temple Guardian lineage to seek revenge.

Later, if that Hegemon received the news, would he come to battle Jun Xiaoyao?

Everything was worth anticipating.

At the same time.

The Cang family of Hegemon Star had naturally received the news early on.

When they heard that ten thousand Cang family members had perished at the hands of Jun Xiaoyao alone.

All the Cang family leaders first disbelieved it, thinking it was false news.

Later, when it was confirmed, their expressions became extremely colorful.

What was originally an army sent to exterminate a clan had ended up burying themselves instead.

If this matter wasn't handled properly, the Cang family would definitely become a laughingstock on the Ancient Path.

Moreover, the reputation of the Hegemon Body lineage would also be affected.

A Supreme Elder of the Cang family immediately became restless, tearing through space with both hands and heading directly toward Desolate Star to demand an explanation.

If not killing Jun Xiaoyao, at least the matter needed to be handled cleanly.

Furthermore, the Cang family had received news that Wu Hu and the others hadn't died, and were undergoing some kind of cultivation and transformation.

The Cang family naturally couldn't allow such a thing to happen.

However, just as that Cang family Supreme Elder was about to descend upon Desolate Star.

A figure wearing golden armor, emanating the aura of a Supreme, once again blocked his path.

Seeing this figure, the Cang family elder's eye twitched slightly, and he spoke in a flat tone: "So it's the Enforcer."

The person who appeared was none other than Enforcer Tuoba Zhan.

"Elder Cang Yai, where are you going?" Tuoba Zhan asked calmly.

"Ten thousand of my Cang family have perished. Isn't this matter serious enough?" Elder Cang Yai said coldly.

"I've said before that the rules of the Ancient Path cannot be broken. I already turned a blind eye when your Cang family sent Grand Saint realm elders to intervene."

"Now even you, a Supreme Elder, are personally taking action. Isn't that going too far?" Tuoba Zhan said coldly.

Elder Cang Yai's face twitched.

Honestly, even he felt embarrassed.

A group of Cang family Grand Saint realm elders had been utterly humiliated by a young genius, like grandsons.

It was completely face-losing.

"Go back," Tuoba Zhan said.

"If I don't go after Jun Xiaoyao, can I not even seek out that Sacred Body from the Ancient Sacred Temple?" Elder Cang Yai certainly wouldn't retreat easily.

"Regardless, the Jun family's divine son will definitely be involved, and you would still be breaking the rules," Tuoba Zhan refused to yield.

"You're abusing your authority for personal gain!" Elder Cang Yai's face trembled with anger.

As an old and experienced person, how could he not see that Tuoba Zhan was claiming to uphold the Ancient Path's rules but was actually showing favoritism and protecting that Jun family divine son.

All his talk of justice and rules was actually just trying to curry favor with the Jun family divine son and attach himself to the Jun family's power.

Tuoba Zhan's face suddenly turned cold as he took out a golden token and said: "Elder Cang Yai, you dare slander an Enforcer? Don't blame me for calling other Enforcers to suppress you!"

Elder Cang Yai was so angry his liver hurt.

After becoming a Supreme, it had been a long time since he had suffered such humiliation.

"Fine, fine. I hear that Jun Xiaoyao will step onto Hegemon Star to seek justice from my Cang family. I want to see exactly how he seeks this justice!"

Elder Cang Yai swept his sleeve and turned to leave, returning empty-handed.

Seeing Elder Cang Yai depart, Tuoba Zhan's expression softened, revealing a faint smile.

He believed that with Jun Xiaoyao's intelligence, he would naturally know how much Tuoba Zhan had done behind the scenes.

"Previously, I did this purely to establish a connection with the Jun family and become a member of the Jun family."

"But now, after seeing the divine son's talent, even if it's just to maintain good relations with the divine son, it's absolutely worth doing this," Tuoba Zhan smiled to himself.

He believed in his own judgment and choices. They wouldn't be wrong.

Jun Xiaoyao would continue to bring shocks to everyone.
