Chapter 2976

The two words "Enfeoffed King" fell.

The entire bustling great hall quieted down slightly.

The crowd of clan elders and prominent figures of the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty, along with the direct descendants of various branches, all had their gazes fixed upon Jun Jun Xiaoyao.

Enfeoffing a king—this was absolutely no small matter.

Not to mention, Jun Jun Xiaoyao did not share the Jiang surname; he would be a king of a different surname.

In the past, enfeoffing a king was a matter handled with the utmost caution.

Even if Jiang Tailin agreed, it would still require deliberation among the various ancestors, clan elders, and other such existences.

But now, upon hearing that Jiang Tailin wanted to enfeoff Jun Jun Xiaoyao as a king.

In the entire hall, not a single member of the Jiang family had any objections.

It could be said that although Jun Jun Xiaoyao did not share the Jiang surname, all members of the Jiang family had already subconsciously regarded him as one of their own.

Naturally, there was no distinction between the same surname or a different one.

As for the merits justifying the enfeoffment.

That went without saying; it required no pen or ink to describe.

The merits Jun Jun Xiaoyao had established for the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty were already greater than the heavens, even rewriting the national destiny of the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty.

The crowd of prominent figures and clan elders of the Jiang family looked at Jun Jun Xiaoyao, all nodding in satisfaction.

As for some of the younger generation and direct descendants of the Jiang family, their eyes were filled with reverence and worship.

"Your Majesty, this..."

Jun Jun Xiaoyao hesitated slightly.

In truth, he really did not care about such things.

Moreover, he could not stay in the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty forever; he would leave later, so...

Jiang Tailin seemed to see through Jun Jun Xiaoyao's concerns.

"Rest assured, even if you become a king of our Tianyu Immortal Dynasty, it does not mean you must stay in the Immortal Dynasty forever."

"This is merely a symbol of status and position."

"Besides, you have already refused once before; you cannot refuse again now."

When Jun Jun Xiaoyao first arrived at the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty, Jiang Tailin had wanted to win him over and even proposed enfeoffing him as a king.

It was just that at the time, Jun Jun Xiaoyao had declined.

Coupled with the fact that there was indeed no justification for the enfeoffment, it had to be dropped.

Now, Jun Jun Xiaoyao's merits were sufficient to stop anyone's mouth; no one would have the slightest objection.

At this moment, Jiang Wolong, who was sitting in the seat of honor, said: "Jun Jun Xiaoyao, this is an honor you deserve."

"The Jiang family will not be stingy with their own people."

Seeing that Jiang Wolong had spoken, Jun Jun Xiaoyao was not a person lacking in awareness.

He bowed slightly and said: "Then many thanks to Your Majesty, Senior Wolong, and the others for your great kindness."

After this.

The news regarding Jun Jun Xiaoyao's enfeoffment as a king also spread like wildfire throughout the Eastern Vastness.

Various factions hearing this news all had different thoughts.

It was unexpected, yet it also seemed to be within reason.

"This should be the youngest king among all the Immortal Dynasties."

"Sigh, this move by the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty can also be considered a statement of their stance, thoroughly winning Jun Jun Xiaoyao over as one of their own."

"In the future, whoever dares to target Jun Jun Xiaoyao, with his status as a king, will be targeting the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty."

"The Tianyu Immortal Dynasty is also conveying a message: Jun Jun Xiaoyao is under the protection of the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty."

Many people understood this.

The Tianyu Immortal Dynasty announcing this news could also be considered an alternative form of protection for Jun Jun Xiaoyao.

After all, Jun Jun Xiaoyao had offended too many people and factions.

And now, bestowing upon him the status of Jun Xiaoyao King.

Coupled with the backing of prominent figures like Jiang Wolong.

In the entire Eastern Vastness, it was feared that there was truly no one who would dare to target Jun Jun Xiaoyao openly.

Shortly thereafter, the enfeoffment invitations from the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty were sent to various factions.

Now, no faction dared to offend the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty again.

They all came one after another with generous gifts to offer their congratulations.

Jun Jun Xiaoyao was speechless about this.

He had made a request that the enfeoffment ceremony need not be so complicated, simple would suffice.

As a result, the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty held it extremely grandly, with gongs and drums beating.

However, Jun Jun Xiaoyao understood that this was the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty building up his prestige.

This was the care and affection from his own people; he could only accept it.

The enfeoffment ceremony was grand and magnificent, with brilliant neon clouds filling the sky, and people from all walks of life coming to pay their respects.

A crowd of prominent figures from the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty appeared.

The ancient ancestor Jiang Wolong also appeared in person, commanding awe from all directions.

They knew that this represented that behind Jun Jun Xiaoyao, there was Jiang Wolong supporting him.

Jun Jun Xiaoyao, in peerless white robes, stood with his hands behind his back on the enfeoffment platform, receiving the royal decree bestowed by Jiang Tailin.

Engraved on it were the two characters "Jun Xiaoyao," representing his status as the Jun Xiaoyao King of the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty.

"Pay respects to the Jun Xiaoyao King!"

On the plaza, many guards, immortal soldiers, and generals of the Tianyu Immortal Dynasty all knelt on one knee toward Jun Jun Xiaoyao.

The sound was vast, like a thunderclap on flat ground, spreading throughout the heavens and earth.

Countless people from various factions who had come to pay their respects on the periphery also bowed.

"We offer our congratulations to the Jun Xiaoyao King!"

Below the enfeoffment platform.

Jiang Haomiao, Jiang Yunran, Jiang Tianlan, Jiang Wanyi, and other direct descendants were all there watching.

Jiang Haomiao could not help but sigh with emotion.

"Brother Jun being enfeoffed as a king is the desire of the people; he must have broken the record for the fastest enfeoffment."

"Ninth Sister, don't you think so..."

Jiang Haomiao turned his head to look.

Only to find that Jiang Yunran beside him had her eyelashes slightly raised, her eyes fixed on Jun Jun Xiaoyao's figure, seemingly somewhat distracted.

"Ninth Sister?"

"Ah... Imperial Brother, what did you say?"

Jiang Yunran regained her senses.

"Ninth Sister, since returning from the Rebirth Cave, you seem to have often been distracted and absent-minded; what is going on?" Jiang Haomiao asked.

"I... it's nothing." Jiang Yunran lowered her eyes slightly.

What could she say?

Say that inside the Rebirth Cave, her primordial spirit communicated and merged with Jun Jun Xiaoyao's?

Although it could not yet be considered a true fusion of primordial spirits.

But that intimacy of primordial spirits communicating with each other was absolutely no less than a sincere exchange of the physical body.

Even more, there was a feeling that went deep into the soul.

Jiang Yunran also felt that since returning from the Rebirth Cave, she had been a little bit off.

She always recalled the scenes in the Rebirth Cave.

Jun Jun Xiaoyao holding her hand.

Smelling the fragrance on her body.

In that desperate spiritual space, her primordial spirit was protected and warmed by Jun Jun Xiaoyao's primordial spirit.

She remembered Jun Jun Xiaoyao telling her that if there was any danger, he would protect her from harm.

All of this, for a woman, had too much lethality.

That kind of lethality left behind emotional wounds.

Therefore, Jiang Yunran was often distracted and dazed.

She even felt that her primordial spirit was still stained with the aura of Jun Jun Xiaoyao's primordial spirit.

And what could be more profound than even the soul being stained with his aura?

However, Jiang Yunran discovered something.

Compared to her daze after returning.

Jun Jun Xiaoyao seemed to be no different from usual.

It seemed he did not have any special feelings for her because of their shared experience in the Rebirth Cave.

Jiang Yunran knew that Jun Jun Xiaoyao had a wife.

And he had said that seeing her was like seeing his wife.

Could it be that she was just a substitute?

No, perhaps not even a substitute.

A substitute could at least be used.

But Jun Jun Xiaoyao had never expressed any special meaning toward her.

It was just the normal care of a clan brother for a clan sister.

But this instead made her feel an inexplicable entanglement.

Jiang Yunran's long eyelashes curled and lifted slightly, looking at the peerless man on the enfeoffment platform, whose figure was as straight as bamboo and whose white robes were timeless.

His elegance was unique; there was no second like him in the world.

She suddenly felt an inexplicable chaos in her heart.

Carrying a complex mix of emotions.

Clearly, she had been very simple before, her heart as still as water.

Apart from working hard to cultivate and aiming for the youth emperor level, she had no other superfluous thoughts.

But now, she felt her mind was somewhat chaotic.

Especially when seeing Jun Jun Xiaoyao's figure, it would become even more chaotic.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yunran withdrew her gaze, turned around, and left silently.

On the enfeoffment platform, Jun Jun Xiaoyao noticed this, his gaze watching Jiang Yunran's departing back.

Not knowing what he was pondering.
