Ziqiong did not know you were connected to the Nalan Clan! Had I known, even a hundred times my courage would not have let me lay a hand on the Nalan Clan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the Purple Mansion Sacred Ground’s Sacred Maiden kneel and bow repeatedly, many native cultivators of Dongxuan Region could not comprehend what was happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this prostrate, groveling woman truly the same exalted, otherworldly Sacred Maiden who had towered above them moments ago?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What… what is going on?” Lin Feng stared blankly, frozen in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Ziqiong, why are you…?” Zi Yan’s lips parted in stunned disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Sacred Maiden from the lower realm, she naturally had no idea how terrifying Jun Xiaoyao’s name was in the Immortal Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sacred Maiden…” The Purple Mansion Sacred Ground’s elders had also been momentarily stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon hearing Su Ziqiong address him as “Divine Son,” they instantly understood—their faces turned deathly pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Divine Son, please forgive us!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a rustling sound, every single Purple Mansion Sacred Ground cultivator knelt to the ground at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Heavenly Gods and Dao Gods among them bowed without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rank, status, background—all meant nothing before that one!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had offended one of the most exalted figures in the Immortal Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it, am I hallucinating?” A native Dongxuan Region prodigy stared in disbelief, muttering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lower realm branch of the Purple Mansion Sacred Ground had always been overwhelmingly dominant, commanding homage from all four directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, they knelt like a pack of cowardly dogs before the golden palanquin, bowing their heads without end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The contrast was simply too immense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lord within the palanquin had not even shown his face—and already the Purple Mansion Sacred Ground had been terrified out of their wits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made every faction in the lower realm wonder: just how exalted was this lord’s true identity?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nalan Ruoxi’s eyes also held unprecedented shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was deeply curious about the lord who had saved her Nalan Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid the gaze of countless eyes, a figure finally stepped calmly from the golden palanquin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His robes gleamed like snow, his figure tall and elegant, transcendent and peerless, untouched by worldly dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immortal aura flowed around him, his body as if carved from flawless celestial jade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for his face, though veiled in divine light, the faintly revealed features were enough to leave every female being present breathless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is he… a true immortal?” The native Dongxuan Region cultivators murmured dazedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beyond “immortal,” they could think of no other word to describe him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That figure was simply too transcendent, too otherworldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in the Immortal Realm, he would draw gasps from all corners—let alone here in this barren lower realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nalan Ruoxi stood there as if bewitched, stunned into silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had never imagined the lord who saved her Nalan Clan could be so breathtakingly beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His aura made her, the Nalan Clan’s own celestial daughter, fall instantly under his spell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the entire Dongxuan Region, even across the entire Tianxuan Continent, not a single man could match even one percent of Jun Xiaoyao’s aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So it really is him…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Su Ziqiong had already suspected, actually seeing him now brought a wholly different feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, she had once fantasized about speaking to Jun Xiaoyao—even forming some bond with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she had never imagined meeting him under such circumstances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Su Ziqiong hated Zi Yan and Lin Feng with all her soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for her, how could Su Ziqiong have offended Jun Xiaoyao?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jun Xiaoyao’s gaze swept calmly across the crowd, his expression utterly placid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he had descended to the lower realm, he had sensed the ancient talisman within his space treasure trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That talisman was the one he had seized from Ji Xuan within the Yuan Tian Secret Ruins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also the token of Yuan Tian the Supreme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having received Yuan Tian the Supreme’s fortune, Jun Xiaoyao naturally had to resolve this karmic thread for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Nalan Clan must be the family of Yuan Tian the Supreme’s consort,” Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, he arrived in time—otherwise, this karmic thread might never have been completed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You, come here.” Jun Xiaoyao’s gaze settled on Nalan Ruoxi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nalan Ruoxi felt overwhelmed with honor, yet a flicker of nervousness lingered in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This young lord from the Immortal Realm held such staggering status that even the Purple Mansion Sacred Ground knelt and begged for mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, Nalan Ruoxi felt some unease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, she forced herself forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Young Master, for saving us. Ruoxi and the Nalan Clan will forever cherish this grace and never forget it,” Nalan Ruoxi bowed deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jun Xiaoyao drew forth an ancient talisman, which resonated with the one around Nalan Ruoxi’s neck, emitting a soft glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Indeed, it’s confirmed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After full verification, Jun Xiaoyao gave a slight nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nalan Clan—he could protect with a mere wave of his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rest easy. No one will dare harm you or the Nalan Clan again,” Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Young Master, for your immense grace! Ruoxi has no way to repay you!” Nalan Ruoxi’s face lit up with joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze toward Jun Xiaoyao brimmed with excitement, reverence, and gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This instantly darkened Lin Feng’s expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything had been unfolding exactly as he had planned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nalan Ruoxi was to become his slave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Jun Xiaoyao had shattered it all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Lin Feng clenched his fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the chosen one of Heaven and Earth, destined to rule the entire Tianxuan Continent—how could he possibly yield?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jun Xiaoyao’s gaze had also noticed Lin Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How lucky—just descended to the lower realm, and I meet one of the Ten Rebellious Prodigies,” Jun Xiaoyao murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Feng’s life story was textbook perfect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rejected by his fiancée, raised with a childhood sweetheart of extraordinary background.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, within a year, transformed from a waste into an unparalleled prodigy, nearly rivaling Immortal Realm prodigies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the Ten Rebellious Prodigies could wield such a massive cheat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To say he wasn’t the destined hero of Heaven and Earth? Jun Xiaoyao didn’t believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Jun Xiaoyao’s expression, Su Ziqiong quickly spoke up: “Divine Son, this is all Lin Feng’s doing! The Purple Mansion Sacred Ground has no feud whatsoever with the Nalan Clan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Nalan Zhan sneered: “Who was it that claimed Lin Feng would become one of you Purple Mansion Sacred Ground’s own?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ziqiong’s face paled, her heart filled with rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned to face Zi Yan, whose face was as white as paper, and her fury ignited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for Zi Yan recommending Lin Feng to her…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She, Su Ziqiong, and the entire Purple Mansion Sacred Ground would never have fallen into such disgrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zi Yan, you are the traitor of the Purple Mansion Sacred Ground!” Su Ziqiong struck out with her palm toward Zi Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Ziqiong, what are you doing?!” Zi Yan’s face turned deathly pale, her beautiful features twisting in terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Splat!*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ziqiong’s jade palm slammed into Zi Yan’s forehead—blood spurted from all seven orifices, and Zi Yan collapsed lifeless to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zi Yan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Feng let out a heart-wrenching scream, his eyes blazing crimson with rage!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi Yan, his childhood sweetheart, loyal and devoted to him, had just died before his eyes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of this was because of that young lord from the Immortal Realm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aaaahhhhh! Die!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Feng’s face twisted into a demonic mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Possessing the protagonist’s fate, he unleashed his full potential—his power surged violently as he charged toward Jun Xiaoyao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want you dead!” Lin Feng’s neck veins bulged as he roared with soul-deep fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You seek death!” Yi Yu moved to strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jun Xiaoyao merely shook his head, swiftly extending one palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The void shattered, heaven and earth overturned!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between finger and palm, the heavens cracked apart!\u003C\u002Fp>",1442,"2026-06-20T23:29:44.332Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","eb6d988e919ea660806b11d5a83f561be58fd17ddac1ac5e80589abce3dd7ffd","starting-with-the-wasteland-sacred-body-chapter-170","starting-with-the-wasteland-sacred-body-chapter-168",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-with-the-wasteland-sacred-body-cover.jpg"]
