Just because you destroyed one of my projections, do you think you’re truly invincible?” Yang Pan said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He believed Jun Xiaoyao’s confidence stemmed from having effortlessly obliterated one of his projections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph…” Jun Xiaoyao chuckled softly, saying nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His true abilities—how could Yang Pan possibly understand them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cold intent surged in Yang Pan’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given his fiery temper, he nearly couldn’t hold back and launched an immediate battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But remembering he still needed to compete for the title of Imperial Son-in-Law, Yang Pan suppressed his rage for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once he secured the Imperial Son-in-Law title, he would challenge Jun Xiaoyao to a decisive duel atop the Forbidden Peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jun Xiaoyao clearly understood Yang Pan’s thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t care whether they fought now or later—the outcome would never change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the temporary truce between the two, the surrounding cultivators continued to marvel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jun Xiaoyao’s entrance was too dominant—he shattered the invincible aura of the Marquis of the Crown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet they were also curious: would Jun Xiaoyao enter the competition for Imperial Son-in-Law?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jun Xiaoyao walked over to the Jun family’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Divine Son!” Jun Zhangjian and others bowed, their eyes filled with delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had been tormented lately by those rumors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with Jun Xiaoyao’s appearance, all the slanderous lies collapsed on their own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiaoyao, I knew you wouldn’t avoid a fight,” Jiang Shengyi said, smiling as she approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shengyi sister.” Jun Xiaoyao gave a slight nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Luoli watched the two, her big eyes shifting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t think much of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine Son, we meet again.

I’ve never seen her before—truly breathtaking!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, now I finally understand why so many prodigies are fighting to become Imperial Son-in-Law—not only can it elevate them to the heavens, but they’d also win such a beauty.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many cultivators gazed at Wu Mingyue, their eyes filled with awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dressed in a crimson robe, Wu Mingyue was enchanting, radiant, peerlessly beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mingyue…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting in the corner, Xiao Chen’s heart surged with emotion, his expression faintly trembling with longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Mingyue was his woman—he would not let her go to anyone today!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you all for attending this banquet.

Young talents may begin their contests.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Panwu Divine Master finished speaking, the banquet officially commenced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ha! Let me make the first offering—I’ve admired Princess Mingyue for a long time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A handsome young man with a long sword on his back leapt onto the prepared stage, laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s a true disciple of the Tiannan Sword Sect—a formidable prodigy,” some cultivators said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tiannan Sword Sect was a top-tier sword sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Wu Mingyue didn’t even glance at the prodigy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold laugh came from Yang Pan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He unleashed a spear strike—terrifying spear light rippled the very void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tiannan Sword Sect’s true disciple’s expression changed instantly—he drew his sword and countered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet in a single blow, he was blasted backward, spitting blood, a bloody hole torn into his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worse still, every bone in his body had been shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several elders from the Tiannan Sword Sect rushed forward to examine him—their faces turned ashen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But due to Yang Pan’s status and the presence of the Panwu Divine Master, they dared not speak out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph! This Imperial Son-in-Law title is mine. Any fool who dares challenge me—step forward and fight!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Pan stood atop the stage, clad in the Heaven-Ming Horn Divine Armor, wielding the Shangmang Divine Spear—his aura unmatched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yang Pan’s words faded, a massive aura erupted from a banquet table behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously came a cold, resolute shout:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only Xiao Chen can be Mingyue’s Imperial Son-in-Law.
