Chapter 307: The Wang Family

Jun Xiaoyao's words rang out like a clarion call, echoing in everyone's ears.

No one expected that the one who stepped forward to defend Jiang Shengyi at this moment would be Jun Xiaoyao.

Jiang Shengyi's slender frame trembled, her heart tingling with an indescribable surge of emotion and joy.

Jun Xiaoyao's words contained not a single syllable of love or affection.

Yet to Jiang Shengyi's ears, they sounded like the most beautiful confession in the world.

At this moment, Jiang Shengyi's heart was utterly moved.

Though Jun Xiaoyao was more than a decade younger than her, now she found warmth and security in him.

This feeling, Jiang Shengyi had never experienced before.

If not for the public setting, Jiang Shengyi might have truly lost control and embraced Jun Xiaoyao.

The Jiang family members glanced between Jun Xiaoyao and Jiang Shengyi, their eyes betraying a faint hint of surprise.

Both wore white robes.

Jun Xiaoyao was noble and elegant, like a celestial immortal descended from heaven.

Jiang Shengyi was peerlessly graceful, like a fairy from the Moon Palace.

Doesn't it feel like they're made for each other?

Even Jiang Luoli, with her wide eyes, kept glancing back and forth between the two.

Though Jiang Luoli often acted like a simple-minded girl, she could be surprisingly perceptive.

These two—doesn't it feel like something's off between them?

The Wang family's quasi-supreme elder's expression darkened slightly.

He had never met Jun Xiaoyao before and did not know this white-robed youth was the famed Jun family's divine heir.

"Where did this ill-mannered brat come from? Do you even have the right to speak?"

Jiang Shengyi had already agreed, yet a greenhorn youth interrupted—of course the Wang family's quasi-supreme elder was displeased.

Had this boy not been a Jiang family member, the Wang family's quasi-supreme elder would have already slapped him.

"Do you get to decide whether I have the right to speak?"

Jun Xiaoyao stood with his hands behind his back, facing off against the Wang family's quasi-supreme elder.

"Are you the Jiang family's young master?" The Wang family's quasi-supreme elder frowned, his gaze flickering subtly toward Hua Yuanshu.

Jun Xiaoyao referred to himself not as "this divine heir," but as "this young master."

That distinction was enormous.

It meant Jun Xiaoyao was speaking now not as the Jun family's divine heir, but as the Jiang family's young master.

"Jun Xiaoyao is our newly appointed Jiang family young master. If he lacks the right, then no one else in the Jiang family does." A Jiang family elder spoke coldly.

"What? You're Jun Xiaoyao?"

The Wang family's quasi-supreme elder's face changed.

This was far beyond his expectations.

Ordinary youths truly had no right to speak to him.

But Jun Xiaoyao was not only the Jun family's divine heir—he was now also the Jiang family's young master.

If this news spread, it would surely shake the Huangtian Immortal Realm once more.

Jun Xiaoyao's status was utterly exalted.

Insulting Jun Xiaoyao meant insulting the Jun family, the Jiang family, and the Holy Spirit Academy—all three powers at once.

Even the Wang family's quasi-supreme elder could not bear that!

Jun Xiaoyao spoke this way not out of any hidden motive.

Even if he and Jiang Shengyi had never shared that absurd incident, he still would have stepped forward.

Morally and rationally, he could never watch Jiang Shengyi sacrifice her own happiness for a single Nine Marvelous Rebirth Immortal Herb.

As for the complicated relationship between him and Jiang Shengyi—

Jun Xiaoyao simply did not wish to think about it now.

"I refuse!"

Jiang Shengyi did not hesitate for a moment.

She could not betray her own heart.

More importantly, if she still forced herself to agree, wouldn't she make Jun Xiaoyao misunderstand her?

Jiang Shengyi's own suffering didn't matter—but she absolutely did not want Jun Xiaoyao to misunderstand her.

Jun Xiaoyao nodded faintly, turning to the Wang family's quasi-supreme elder: "You heard it. If so, please leave."

Jun Xiaoyao's single sentence left the Wang family's quasi-supreme elder speechless, his face darkening.

What had been a smooth, favorable situation had been shattered by Jun Xiaoyao's intervention.

And for the Wang family, Jun Xiaoyao's disruption was not merely the broken marriage alliance.

Another Wang family plan had also been indirectly ruined by Jun Xiaoyao.

This caused the Wang family's quasi-supreme elder to look at Jun Xiaoyao with cold intent.

At that moment, a voice suddenly emerged from a carriage at the rear of the Wang family's entourage.

"Jun Xiaoyao, as rumored—you are indeed arrogant and defiant."

Upon hearing this voice, everyone present stiffened.

BOOM!

With a thunderous explosion, the carriage shattered apart.

Immediately, a figure emerged, stepping forward with hands behind his back, wreathed in ten-thousand-zhang radiance.

One step—and heaven and earth shifted!

The qi within the cosmos seemed to grow chaotic with his arrival.

Some people simply possess such an aura—born above all, destined for greatness!

"That… that figure—could it be the Wang family's young emperor?"

"Has the Wang family's young emperor come in person?"

Many young Jun family members could not help but cry out in shock.

The Wang family's young emperor, Wang Teng, was renowned throughout the Huangtian Immortal Realm.

The main reason? The Wang family spread the word everywhere.

And Wang Teng's father never stopped boasting, "My son has the bearing of an emperor!"—as if afraid no one would notice.

Yet now, sensing this qi capable of upending heaven and earth—

The Wang family's young emperor's title was no empty boast.

"Oh? Wang Teng." Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained unchanged as he gazed at the figure shrouded in endless radiance.

His entrance was certainly flashy.

But so what? Jun Xiaoyao feared no one.

At this moment, Wang Teng's form was veiled in boundless light, obscuring his features.

Around him, divine auspicious phenomena manifested: true dragons emerged from the sea, divine phoenixes spread their wings, qilins leapt through the air, xuanwu bore mountains on their backs.

This aura was terrifyingly strong—undoubtedly the foremost among the young generation of the Immortal Realm.

He stood in confrontation with Jun Xiaoyao.

This aura was terrifyingly strong, undoubtedly one of the foremost among the younger generation of the Immortal Realm.

One radiated overwhelming power, shaking heaven and earth.

The other wore a pristine white robe, commanding the cosmos into submission.

The Wang family's young emperor.

The Jun family's divine heir.

Long ago, many had wondered: what kind of explosive clash would occur if these two ever met?

And now, they finally faced each other.

Wang Teng first turned to Jiang Shengyi: "Jiang Shengyi, you possess the primordial Dao womb—you truly deserve me, young emperor."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shengyi's beautiful eyes revealed only revulsion.

It sounded as if she were the one chasing after him.

If Jiang Shengyi were to chase anyone, it would be Jun Xiaoyao—Wang Teng had no right.

"You covet the primordial Dao womb, yet pretend to be so exalted. Wang Teng, the higher you stand, the harder you'll fall." Jun Xiaoyao stood with his hands behind his back, his tone laced with mockery.

"Oh? Are you any different?" Wang Teng sneered.

"You covet the Primordial Dao Embryo, yet pretend to be so exalted—Wang Teng, the higher you stand, the harder you'll fall." Jun Xiaoyao stood with his hands behind his back, his tone laced with mockery.

Wang Teng was merely praised by others.

But Jun Xiaoyao—wasn't he also standing high?

"We are not the same. This divine heir stands where he should. As for you… you're nothing but empty reputation!" Jun Xiaoyao said.

These words caused everyone around to nearly stop breathing.

These two had barely begun—already locked in a sharp, explosive clash.

The Wang family's quasi-supreme elder's eyes blazed with fury.

These two, from the very start, clashed like needle against wheat awn, brimming with hostility.

The Wang family's impending Supreme Being's eyes churned with anger.

Jun Xiaoyao actually dares to so lightly disrespect and offend Wang Teng.

"Heh, finally I've met someone even more arrogant than this Young Emperor." Wang Teng let out a cold laugh.

"Young Emperor? Do you even deserve the title?"

As Jun Xiaoyao spoke, divine energy surged through his entire body; he thrust one hand across ten thousand li of sky, crushing down upon Wang Teng with absolute dominance and tyranny!
