Chapter 3195

The robust man who pushed the door and entered was extremely burly.

As he stepped inside, it was as if the sound of wind and thunder arose.

A pair of wild-looking eyes, with vertical pupils like those of a lion or tiger, seemed to have wisps of lightning overflowing from them.

When they saw this man.

The various demon cultivators sitting in the hall all stood up in a panic, cupping their hands respectfully, bowing to him in fear and trepidation.

"Greetings, Grand Commander Wuji!"

Many demon cultivators held their breath.

It was not only because this Grand Commander Wuji exuded the might of the Emperor Realm.

It was even more because he was backed by a powerful clan of the Demon Alliance, the Nine Extremes Thunder Lion Clan!

The Nine Extremes Thunder Lion Clan could be considered a powerful force within the entire Demon Alliance.

Their prestige was not much weaker than that of the Heavenly Storm Divine Sparrow Clan behind Mu Xuan.

Within their clan, there was even a powerhouse, the Nine Extremes Demon Emperor, who was also a renowned titan of the Demon Alliance.

And this Grand Commander Wuji, named Lei Wuji, was the direct descendant of that Nine Extremes Demon Emperor.

His own talent was also extremely high.

Although he was not of the youthful Emperor level.

He had only spent twenty thousand years to attain the Dao and become an Emperor.

Within the Demon Alliance, he was also extremely outstanding.

And it was well known that.

This Lei Wuji had always been quite enamored with Mu Xuan.

Coupled with his status, background, and strength, he was indeed a match for Mu Xuan.

Therefore, he had mentioned the matter of marriage many times.

The Nine Extremes Demon Emperor behind him had also brought it up once.

But it had been brushed aside by the Heavenly Storm Divine Sparrow Clan with other excuses.

At this moment, Lei Wuji just barged into the banquet.

Everyone present was silent, not daring to say another word.

Clearly, they were extremely wary of Lei Wuji's might.

They also knew why Lei Wuji had come.

So some gazes also fell secretly upon Jun Xiaoyao.

However, what surprised everyone was.

Everyone present, including the three newly promoted commanders, had stood up.

Only Jun Xiaoyao remained as steady as Mount Taishan, still drinking wine, as if he hadn't seen Lei Wuji at all.

"You are Yu Xiaoyao..."

Upon seeing Jun Xiaoyao, Lei Wuji's expression sank even further.

This guy was indeed damn handsome!

Thinking again of how Mu Xuan had recruited him as a personal bodyguard.

Dark clouds gathered in Lei Wuji's eyes.

"Something the matter?" Jun Xiaoyao was too lazy to say much.

Lei Wuji said, "This commander feels that you are not suitable to serve as Mu Xuan's personal bodyguard."

"So, if you leave voluntarily, you can still remain safe."

Jun Xiaoyao sipped his wine and said, "Whether it's suitable or not is not for you to decide."

"Are you questioning my words?"

Lightning light immediately overflowed from Lei Wuji's pair of thunder pupils, and his surging Emperor Realm might was released without reservation.

In his view, a Quasi-Emperor, no matter how strong, was just a Quasi-Emperor.

In front of him, a true Emperor, they were nothing more than a straw dog.

However, Jun Xiaoyao remained completely calm and just said, "Yu has only just become the Empress's bodyguard."

"And you are questioning my suitability in front of everyone."

"By doing this, are you perhaps slapping the Empress in the face?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Lei Wuji's expression faltered.

That's right!

Mu Xuan had only just promoted Jun Xiaoyao to be her personal bodyguard.

And by doing this, he was indeed slapping Mu Xuan in the face.

If this reached Mu Xuan's ears, she might harbor some resentment toward him.

But looking at this pretty boy Jun Xiaoyao, Lei Wuji felt annoyed no matter how he looked at him.

This guy was definitely very good at hoodwinking women!

He looked just like a scumbag!

He was not at ease with such a person staying by Mu Xuan's side.

But if he dealt with him in front of everyone, it would indeed be slapping Mu Xuan in the face, and might instead cause her coldness and disgust.

"Very well, let's see if you can sit firmly in this position."

Lei Wuji's expression was cold.

He couldn't do anything to Jun Xiaoyao in public.

But he had plenty of ways to deal with him.

Mu Xuan was already the woman he had marked; who else dared to covet her?

Lei Wuji left.

All the demon cultivators present were silent.

This Yu Xiaoyao had just entered the Demon Alliance and had already provoked a difficult opponent.

And Jun Xiaoyao finished a cup of wine.

"This should be one of Mu Xuan's troubles. For the sake of our cooperation, I'll find a suitable time later to make him disappear," Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.

With his current state of mind and vision.

Although he didn't take ordinary Great Emperors seriously at all—they were just slightly larger ants.

Even if they clamored, it was just the clamoring of ants, unable to cause the slightest ripple in his state of mind.

But sometimes, it was still a bit annoying, and it wouldn't hurt to crush them along the way.

After this disturbance by Lei Wuji.

The banquet did not last much longer.

Near the end.

Bi Ran's figure appeared and came to Jun Xiaoyao's side.

"I heard Lei Wuji gave you trouble?"

"It's no bother," Jun Xiaoyao said.

"The Empress has instructed that if there is any trouble, you can come to me, and I will help you settle it," Bi Ran said.

"A Lei Wuji is not worth that," Jun Xiaoyao said.

Bi Ran frowned slightly.

Was this Yu Xiaoyao a bit too arrogant?

Although he was someone Empress Mu Xuan had taken a fancy to, Lei Wuji was an Emperor Realm powerhouse and a Grand Commander in the Demon Alliance; he was definitely not someone to be trifled with.

Just then, a voice rang out.

"Miss Bi Ran..."

The one who spoke was Xiang Yang.

"Young Master Xiang Yang—no, I should call you Commander Xiang Yang—what is the matter?" Bi Ran nodded slightly.

Seeing Bi Ran, Xiang Yang also felt a sigh in his heart.

Thinking back to the beginning, Bi Ran had followed behind him; she was his childhood sweetheart and had quite a good impression of him.

It was a pity that he was blind, misjudged the person, and missed out on such a woman.

And now, Xiang Yang also wanted to rebuild his relationship with Bi Ran.

And then, at a suitable time, tell her the truth.

And just as Xiang Yang wanted to say something.

Jun Xiaoyao suddenly said, "By the way, Bi Ran, I have some things I would like to ask you, if it is convenient."

Bi Ran nodded: "It is."

Mu Xuan had instructed her that if Jun Xiaoyao had any matters, she should take care of him.

Then, Jun Xiaoyao and Bi Ran left the banquet.

Xiang Yang's figure stood stiffly in place.

Mu Xuan was one thing.

How was it that now, even his childhood sweetheart was walking so closely with this Yu Xiaoyao?

He secretly clenched his fists, cold light overflowing in his eyes.

On the other side, Jun Xiaoyao sought out Bi Ran.

To ask about the internal strife of the Demon Alliance.

"You want to ask about this?" Bi Ran seemed to think of something and was somewhat hesitant.

"I have been cultivating in the deep mountains, not asking about worldly affairs, and have never understood this matter."

"Why, is this a taboo?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.

Bi Ran thought of Mu Xuan's instructions and did not refuse.

She also roughly explained the matter.

The cause of this internal strife in the Demon Alliance.

Concerned a former big shot of the Demon Alliance, the Heavenly Demon Emperor.

The Heavenly Demon Emperor was the former master of the Demon Alliance.

Although he had no clan under his command, he was able to integrate clans like the Heavenly Storm Divine Sparrow, Nine Extremes Thunder Lion, Fire Qilin, and Heavenly Green Snake into the Demon Alliance.

And the cause was a supreme treasure that the Heavenly Demon Emperor brought back from the Tai Xuan Immortal Dynasty: the State-Protecting Seal.

Later, the Heavenly Demon Emperor seemed to have encountered some mishap and fell.

Thus, the Demon Alliance fell into internal strife to compete for the State-Protecting Seal.

After listening, Jun Xiaoyao's brows furrowed slightly.

That State-Protecting Seal was one of the three Tai Xuan treasures.

And the Demon Alliance's internal strife arose because of this.

The reason might be that all the major clans wanted to obtain the State-Protecting Seal to find the Tai Xuan Secret Treasury behind it.

This also made sense.

But Jun Xiaoyao always felt, would this be too rash?

Although the State-Protecting Seal was one of the three Tai Xuan treasures, it shouldn't be enough to cause such internal strife in the Demon Alliance.

After all, it was only one of the three Tai Xuan treasures, not the complete set of three treasures.

Could there be other hidden secrets behind this?
