Chapter 1041: Winning the Heart, Persuading Xuanyue, Luo Xiangling
"What is it? Thinking of your brother again?"
Seeing Xuanyue staring blankly at him, the smile on Jun Xiaoyao's face slowly faded.
He mistakenly thought that Xuanyue was once again mistaking him for her deceased brother.
He was not anyone's substitute.
However, contrary to his expectations.
Xuanyue shook her head.
"No, I am looking at you."
Jun Xiaoyao was stunned.
When did this girl learn how to flirt?
"It seems you have gradually broken free from the past," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Xuanyue lowered her brows, remained silent for a long while, and then said.
"After talking with you before, I have also figured some things out."
"I have always been trapped in a delusional obsession, searching for a person who might not even exist."
"This is self-deception."
Xuanyue revealed a bitter smile.
She knew full well that the Other Shore organization, and that woman named Hua Lian, were likely deceiving her.
But she was willing to be deceived.
All for the sake of an ethereal promise of reincarnation.
"It is good that you have figured it out; life is rarely satisfactory in every way."
"The best way to cherish the memory of your brother is to look forward and live your life well," Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.
Xuanyue was stunned.
Jun Xiaoyao's words seemed to possess an inexplicable power.
She had always been bound by memories, never having known freedom.
She had never even thought about her own life.
And now, Jun Xiaoyao was telling her to look forward, which meant he wanted her to take her life into her own hands.
For a moment, Xuanyue choked up slightly.
She had not expected Jun Xiaoyao to have such a warm side.
His exterior seemed indifferent, yet his heart seemed to hold a flame, making her feel a long-lost warmth and peace.
Jun Xiaoyao saw the subtle change in Xuanyue's eyes.
This was the effect he wanted.
Xuanyue was to be used by him.
Xuanyue and Su Hongyi would be two sharp blades under his command.
"Alright, I came here to tell you that we may need to prepare to head to the Other Shore Imperial Clan soon. I hope you can lead the way and provide me with some clues about the Other Shore Imperial Clan," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Upon hearing this, Xuanyue nodded.
Even her life had been saved by Jun Xiaoyao.
What reason did she have not to help?
"However, the Blue Other Shore Flower lineage might have strong opinions about me," Xuanyue reminded him.
She was originally supposed to be executed by the Other Shore Prince.
As it turned out, she did not die, but the Other Shore Prince did.
It was evident what kind of opinions the Blue Other Shore Flower lineage would have.
"No matter. I would like to see who has the guts," Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.
He now had an additional identity.
Son-in-law of the Tushan Imperial Clan!
Furthermore, the Nine-Tailed King of the Tushan Imperial Clan had even bestowed upon him a Red Thread of Fate.
Added to the Divine Turtle King, and the mysterious Immortal he had fabricated using the Divine Evil Thought.
It was equivalent to Jun Xiaoyao having three Immortal Kings backing him!
Who would dare to provoke him?
"I never expected that I could rely on my background to suppress others in the Foreign Realm," Jun Xiaoyao thought, finding it quite marvelous.
In the Immortal Realm, his status was unrivaled, and his identity as the Jun Clan's Divine Son intimidated all directions.
Later, in the Foreign Realm, Jun Xiaoyao lost the protection of his background and had to plan every step with caution.
Yet now, he had acquired such a formidable background.
This was enough to prove that Jun Xiaoyao did not rely solely on the Jun Clan.
Even if he were all alone, he would still be capable of achieving greatness.
This was the true anomaly of the ages, an unrivaled monster.
After finishing with Xuanyue, Jun Xiaoyao returned to his cultivation grounds.
Because the entire Foreign Realm dragon vein had been monopolized by Jun Xiaoyao and refined into his inner universe.
To him, everywhere was a blessed land.
"Finally, I can begin cultivating the Soul Book."
Jun Xiaoyao took out the Soul Book.
As one of the Nine Great Heavenly Books, the mysteries of the Soul Book were endless.
Even with the tutelage of the Chi Xiao King, Chi Hongyu could not have comprehended much.
In fact, during their competition, he hadn't even had time to display the mysteries of the Soul Book before being defeated by Jun Xiaoyao in a few moves.
"Let me explore it thoroughly."
Jun Xiaoyao opened the Soul Book, his mind sinking into it.
Ancient characters, like primordial stars in motion, released light, mysterious and unfathomable.
Each ancient character seemed to be deconstructing the soul, exploring the mysteries of the Primordial Spirit and the spirit.
Jun Xiaoyao valued the Soul Book highly.
Because the Primordial Spirit was the most important aspect of cultivation.
If the Primordial Spirit were cultivated to a certain level, it could even leave the physical body and travel through the myriad worlds of the universe.
In a single thought, thoughts like the sands of the Ganges, neither born nor destroyed, neither increasing nor decreasing, immortal and indestructible.
Of course, that was already an extremely high level of soul cultivation.
Jun Xiaoyao's current Primordial Spirit level was still at the Boundless level.
It was at the stage of quantitative change and had not yet truly reached a qualitative transformation.
But Jun Xiaoyao believed that with the Soul Book, the transformation of his Primordial Spirit was only a matter of time.
Even the Three-Life Primordial Spirit could be preliminarily cultivated to completion.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao sank into his cultivation.
On the other side, deep within the academy, a Quasi-Immortal was in a good mood.
It was none other than the Fufeng King.
Upon learning that Luo Xiangling had gone into seclusion and refused to see Jun Xiaoyao, the Fufeng King's mood became incomparably pleasant.
"The younger generation is still too naive. Elder Luo Wang's feelings are not something to be toyed with at will."
"Since he has married the Five Beauties of Tushan, this person will never again have any possibility of having any connection with Elder Luo Wang," the Fufeng King smiled slightly.
Previously, Jun Xiaoyao had been a thorn in his side.
He also could not understand why Luo Xiangling would take a fancy to Jun Xiaoyao.
Where exactly had he lost?
And now, the news of Jun Xiaoyao and the Five Beauties of Tushan fighting for three months had spread throughout the entire Foreign Realm.
The Fufeng King believed that Luo Xiangling should have completely given up hope by now.
"Since this boy is no longer a threat for the time being, let him be. Trying to move against him is also a very troublesome matter," the Fufeng King muttered to himself.
With the Divine Turtle King's protection, it was impossible for him to move against Jun Xiaoyao.
At most, he could only engage in some small actions in the dark.
The Purple Bamboo Forest was quiet and desolate, rarely visited by anyone.
In the secluded courtyard, a woman as beautiful as a lotus rising from the water, unrivaled in the world, was sitting alone.
Her spirit was like autumn water, her bones like jade, and her deep blue hair cascaded down like a waterfall.
That fair and delicate exquisite face could not be faulted in the slightest.
Her long eyelashes made her clear eyes shimmer, giving people a feeling of gentleness like water and preciousness like jade.
It was none other than Elder Luo Wang, Luo Xiangling.
Only, at this moment, she could not calm her mind.
No matter how she tried to sink into cultivation.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she seemed to see the scene of that woman sitting on Jun Xiaoyao's lap.
That's right.
Luo Xiangling had seen it.
Previously, after dealing with the Divine-Devouring Imperial Son, Jun Xiaoyao had gone alone to the matchmaking assembly.
At that time, Luo Xiangling still had some small grievances in her heart.
However, she also believed that Jun Xiaoyao would not participate in the matchmaking.
As it turned out, she later heard the news that Jun Xiaoyao had not only become the son-in-law of the Tushan Imperial Clan.
But he had married five of them at once.
At that time, Luo Xiangling's heart was in chaos.
But after all, she was Elder Luo Wang, and she still needed to maintain her dignity.
So she waited patiently.
Who would have thought that news would come of Jun Xiaoyao and the five beauties spending three months in the bridal chamber.
At this, Luo Xiangling could no longer hold back and went directly to the Demon Barbarian Great Prefecture.
With her Quasi-Immortal abilities, she could naturally sense Jun Xiaoyao's location.
And then, she saw the scene of Shen Le sitting on Jun Xiaoyao's lap, hugging his neck and chatting intimately.
Luo Xiangling watched from afar, not knowing what to feel in her heart.
Afterwards, the only thing that gave Luo Xiangling slight comfort was that Jun Xiaoyao did not have any further relationship with that woman.
Instead, he left directly.
Luo Xiangling approached, wanting to ask Jun Xiaoyao about the matter clearly.
But hindered by her pride, she ultimately did not appear and left directly.
"He has returned, yet he did not come to see me..."
Luo Xiangling muttered to herself, suddenly feeling a sense of anxiety and loss.
Although she had released news that she was in seclusion.
Jun Xiaoyao should have come to check on her.
Yet Jun Xiaoyao did not even come.
This made Luo Xiangling unable to calm her mind.
"Am I being pretentious? But, I am just a little angry in my heart."
Luo Xiangling actually felt a trace of small grievance.
Her long-dormant heartstrings had been touched by Jun Xiaoyao.
Yet in the blink of an eye, Jun Xiaoyao had spent time in the bridal chamber with other women, and five of them at that.
And there was even a Shen Le who made such ambiguous gestures.
As long as one was a woman, one would probably feel uncomfortable in their heart.
Luo Xiangling really found it hard not to sulk.
Actually, as long as Jun Xiaoyao came to explain, even if he really had spent time in the bridal chamber, Luo Xiangling would have accepted it.
But Jun Xiaoyao did not even come.
He was like a scumbag who neglected his woman after the honeymoon period was over.
Luo Xiangling, who had been single for who knows how many years, was confused about her feelings for the first time.
