Chapter 1185: A brief exchange; this was merely a Dharma body protecting his wife

~9 min read 1,613 words

On the side of the Immortal Court, the Lord Gudi's Son wore an expression of watching a show.

Previously, on the Ultimate Ancient Road and in the Divine Ruins World, he had exhausted every possible method to deal with Jun Xiaoyao.

In the end, he failed every time.

Instead, he was thoroughly tricked by Jun Xiaoyao.

But now, with Di Haotian taking the field, the Lord Gudi's Son did not believe Jun Xiaoyao could remain so composed.

As for Empress Empress Lingyuan, her expression was very complex.

Di Haotian had emerged and was hailed as Lord Young Emperor.

Then what did that make her, the contemporary Young Emperor?

Empress Empress Lingyuan was very strong, and even more so, a prodigy cultivated as the core of the Wa Emperor Immortal Lineage.

But her appeal within the Immortal Court was not as great as Di Haotian's.

Furthermore, she was a woman.

She lacked a bit of that domineering, transcendent aura of holding power that Di Haotian possessed.

At this moment, with Di Haotian and Jun Xiaoyao confronting each other, her identity was awkward; being caught in the middle was indeed very uncomfortable.

"Jun Xiaoyao, I must say, you have exceeded this Young Emperor's expectations."

Even after having his opportunities snatched away by Jun Xiaoyao, Di Haotian's expression remained indifferent.

He knew of too many opportunities; the Void Heaven Realm was merely a small fraction of them.

"Di Haotian, you do not have the qualifications to put on airs in front of this Young Master." Jun Xiaoyao also responded indifferently.

Although this Di Haotian was slightly different from some of his previous opponents.

He was a bit stronger, a bit more special.

But Jun Xiaoyao, harboring an invincible conviction, did not fear Di Haotian.

Moreover, he had gained a bountiful harvest this time; upon returning to the Immortal Academy to seclude himself, his strength would certainly skyrocket once more.

By then, he would like to see if Di Haotian had the ability to keep up with his pace.

"I am not qualified?" Di Haotian was unconcerned.

Then, he suddenly struck, unleashing a palm.

In an instant, the sound of dragon roars shook the heavens.

Eighty-one Heavenly Dragons roared, sweeping out horizontally.

Each Heavenly Dragon looked as if it were cast from gold and iron, ten thousand feet long.

A casual flick of a tail could shatter stars.

"That is... the Dragon Clan's supreme technique!"

Some Immortal Academy disciples exclaimed, recognizing it.

That was a supreme technique from the Dragon Clan of the distant past, only for it to be lost later.

To think it had actually reappeared in Di Haotian's hands.

But thinking that Di Haotian was not a person of this era, it was understandable that he could display such a technique.

Jun Xiaoyao similarly shook his hand, and Chaos Qi permeated the air.

A Chaos Great Handprint covered the sky, colliding with the eighty-one Heavenly Dragons.

Chaos Qi and Dragon Qi erupted, the ripples shocking the world.

Jun Xiaoyao was also slightly surprised inwardly; this Di Haotian indeed had some substance.

Previously in the Void Heaven Realm, he had displayed the Buddhist Great Brahma Heavenly Sound.

Now he had displayed the Dragon Clan's technique.

It felt as if this Di Haotian had learned every technique in the myriad paths.

The Chaos Handprint, like the hand of a god, seized the Heavenly Dragons.

The sheer power of that collision alone made many Immortal Academy disciples present feel alarmed.

Was this truly a figure of the same age as them?

"Alright, both of you, stop now."

Xu Mo could not watch any longer and stepped out to intervene.

To be honest, he was also very uncomfortable.

Because he could not afford to offend either of these two; leaning toward either side was very difficult.

Jun Xiaoyao withdrew his hand, and Di Haotian did the same.

Elder Xu Mo said earnestly: "Now you have both seen it; in the Void Heaven Realm, the Cang Clan and the forbidden families from above the Nine Heavens have appeared one after another."

"The Immortal Domain will not be peaceful in the future."

"You are both pillars of the Immortal Domain; you should not engage in internal strife."

"I actually do not care," Jun Xiaoyao said casually.

Di Haotian looked deeply at Jun Xiaoyao.

He felt that the true Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal Root should have fallen into Jun Xiaoyao's hands.

And there was also Qianxue, who made Di Haotian very curious.

"So be it; what is mine will eventually be mine," Di Haotian also let go.

He had the confidence that whatever he lost would eventually return to his hands.

Immediately, Di Haotian turned to look at Empress Empress Lingyuan.

These two, one was the contemporary Young Emperor, the other the ancient Young Emperor.

The atmosphere suddenly became subtle.

Di Haotian said with a faint expression: "Empress Empress Lingyuan, as the contemporary Young Emperor of the Immortal Court, the thing you should understand most is propriety."

"My followers may have acted slightly inappropriately, but... flies do not bite seamless eggs."

"I hope you will understand what is meant by boundaries and propriety in the future."

These words were full of a lecturing tone.

The implication was that Empress Empress Lingyuan's relationship with Jun Xiaoyao was somewhat ambiguous, which did not befit her background and stance.

Even Empress Empress Lingyuan's cold and beautiful face changed slightly.

Di Haotian was the ancient Young Emperor, that was true.

But it seemed he had no right to criticize her in such a high-and-mighty tone, did he?

She was, after all, the contemporary Young Emperor.

Yet now, it was as if she were a child being lectured by an adult.

Di Haotian did not care about Empress Empress Lingyuan's face, which had become somewhat unsightly.

Because he knew that Empress Empress Lingyuan would play an extremely important role in the future.

It concerned an important figure of the Ancient Immortal Court.

Therefore, Empress Empress Lingyuan absolutely could not have any involvement with Jun Xiaoyao.

Otherwise, it would also affect his plans.

At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao stood out.

"Your people were killed by me; if you want to target someone, you should target me."

"Is fratricide a tradition of the Immortal Court?"

Jun Xiaoyao's words caused many people present to show strange expressions.

They looked at Jun Xiaoyao, then at Empress Empress Lingyuan.

Was this... protecting his wife?

Previously, their relationship was only ambiguous.

But at this moment, Jun Xiaoyao standing out to speak, the intent to protect was already full.

The Jun Clan's Divine Child protecting the Immortal Court's Young Emperor—it was hard not to let one's imagination run wild.

Even Empress Empress Lingyuan did not expect Jun Xiaoyao to be so straightforward in speaking up for her.

This caused a surge of indescribable complexity and joy in Empress Empress Lingyuan's heart.

The joy was from Jun Xiaoyao's protection of her.

The complexity was that Jun Xiaoyao's action undoubtedly deepened the conflict between her and Di Haotian.

Little did they know, this was exactly Jun Xiaoyao's purpose.

However, he did not want to incite conflict between Empress Empress Lingyuan and Di Haotian.

Rather, he wanted to incite conflict between the Wa Emperor Immortal Lineage and the Fuxi Immortal Lineage.

These two major immortal lineages were currently the most prestigious in the Immortal Court.

If these two lineages split, it would undoubtedly be a fatal blow to the Immortal Court.

"This Jun Xiaoyao, as expected..."

Di Haotian also had a strange look in his eyes.

He realized that Jun Xiaoyao was not only monstrous in talent and strength.

Even his schemes and calculations were so profound.

It was obvious he wanted to sow discord between him and Empress Empress Lingyuan.

Although they themselves did not have much of a relationship.

"This is our Immortal Court's own business; there is no need for outsiders to intervene."

"Jun Xiaoyao, this Young Emperor will remember you; I look forward to our formal meeting."

As Di Haotian's voice fell, his figure actually transformed into a rain of golden light.

"This... this is a Dharma body?"

Seeing this scene, all the Immortal Academy disciples present were extremely astonished and exclaimed.

Just now, Di Haotian and Jun Xiaoyao had a brief exchange; eighty percent of the prodigies present could not have withstood that power.

Yet, this was actually just a Dharma body!

Di Haotian's true physical body had not yet emerged from seclusion.

Many Immortal Academy disciples were silent, their Dao hearts suffering a shock.

Just based on that Dragon Clan technique Di Haotian used, not many people present could have blocked it.

They could not even compare to Di Haotian's Dharma body.

Of course, there were also some who were disdainful; they were all people leaning toward Jun Xiaoyao.

"Using a Dharma body to act cool, do you really think everyone is Lord Divine Child? Back then, Lord Divine Child's Dharma body was enough to contend with the Tyrant Body."

A prodigy mentioned such an old story.

In the crowd, Long Yaoer's face was black, like the bottom of a pot.

Was this bringing up things that shouldn't be brought up? It was exposing someone's shortcomings.

This was her dark history, an unbearable past, a nightmare-like existence.

As for Jun Xiaoyao, his expression remained calm from beginning to end.

He had known long ago.

Otherwise, when in the Void Heaven Realm, he would not have said that Di Haotian was not yet qualified to fight him.

"Di Haotian, I am also looking forward to our formal meeting."

Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly.

It was rare to encounter a character who could pique his interest even a little. ===== CHAPTER 1186 =====
