Chapter 397: Greened, Greened, Long Ao Is Greened!

Thousands of li from the valley's maze, in the void, Jun Xiaoyao walked slowly, hands behind his back.

He was in no hurry to reach the Immortal Ancient Dao Lake.

Because Lei Mingyuan had already told him earlier: the opportunity for treasures spewing from the Immortal Ancient Dao Lake had a time limit.

It had not yet reached the major eruption phase, so Jun Xiaoyao had no need to rush there.

Besides, the Jun family's sequence members were already at the Immortal Ancient Dao Lake; Jun Xiaoyao had no reason to worry too much.

At this moment, only Jun Xiaoyao was present—Lei Mingyuan had been sent out earlier to gather intelligence.

A figure shot across the distant horizon like lightning—it was Lei Mingyuan returning.

"Did you gather the information?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.

"My Divine Son, yes. I found out—the Long Ji Princess is also in this region. Long Ao once tried to join her, but she refused him."

Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly, murmuring inwardly: "Two dragons emerge, the Ancestral Dragon prospers—I'll make this prophecy a joke."

Beside him, Lei Mingyuan curiously asked: "My Divine Son, will the Celestial Maiden of the Fox Clan really come back for you?"

Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly: "If my guess is correct, she will. But even if she doesn't, it doesn't matter—I'll just eliminate her and Long Ao together when the time comes."

Jun Xiaoyao spoke with casual indifference.

To him, this was merely a game.

If it could continue, he'd play.

If it couldn't, he'd simply sweep everything away.

Hearing this, Lei Mingyuan inwardly gasped.

For those without strength, victory relies only on calculation.

For those with strength, calculation is merely a game.

Even if it fails, they can still crush everything with raw power.

At that moment, a graceful figure flew in from afar.

Seeing her, Lei Mingyuan froze in shock.

Jun Xiaoyao had actually predicted it correctly!

The arrival was none other than Bai Meier.

When Bai Meier saw Jun Xiaoyao, her beautiful eyes lit up with intense joy.

It felt like sunshine breaking through after a storm.

"Lord Jun!" Bai Meier stepped lightly, instantly appearing before Jun Xiaoyao.

Tears still marked her face; gazing at him, her heart could not calm.

"Miss Bai, how did you…?" Jun Xiaoyao feigned surprise.

Bai Meier bit her lip, overflowing with grievance.

"If Miss Bai doesn't mind, tell me what troubles you."

Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly, raising his hand to wipe away the lingering tears on her face.

Feeling Jun Xiaoyao's tenderness, Bai Meier could no longer hold back—she collapsed into his arms, sobbing.

Jun Xiaoyao patted her fragrant shoulder, his lips betraying a subtle, playful smirk.

Watching Bai Meier throw herself into his arms, Lei Mingyuan was utterly stunned.

Wasn't Bai Meier in love with Long Ao?

Why was she now, tearful and heartbroken, throwing herself into Jun Xiaoyao's embrace?

Had Jun Xiaoyao just greened Long Ao?

"Damn impressive!" Lei Mingyuan muttered inwardly.

With nothing but an Oscar-worthy performance, he'd effortlessly won over a Wang Zu celestial maiden.

No other prodigy could have done it.

Because no other prodigy was more outstanding than Long Ao.

But Jun Xiaoyao? He was even more outstanding than Long Ao.

Combined with Bai Meier's complete disillusionment with Long Ao, her actions were perfectly logical.

Next, Bai Meier slowly recounted several events to Jun Xiaoyao.

Upon hearing that Long Ao had rescued the Long Clan's prodigy, Ao Luan, Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flickered with dark light.

His plan within his mind was now fully formed.

Of course, to execute it, he'd still need Bai Meier's help.

After listening, Jun Xiaoyao shook his head with a sigh: "I never thought Long Ao was such a man. I once even regarded him as a true rival."

Hearing this, Bai Meier felt deeply comforted.

Seeing her reaction, Jun Xiaoyao sneered inwardly.

A woman at her most vulnerable is when she's wounded.

At such moments, agreeing with her wishes often wins her deepest approval.

Add a touch of tenderness, and you easily shatter her final psychological defenses.

Jun Xiaoyao had previously acted like a cold, stoic man simply because he was too lazy to play games with women.

If he truly wanted to play, he'd be the ultimate scoundrel.

After all, few women in the world could truly resist Jun Xiaoyao's charm.

"Lord Jun, don't mention him again. I was foolish before—I now feel only hatred for him," Bai Meier gritted her teeth.

"It's not too late to wake up," Jun Xiaoyao smiled.

Gazing at Jun Xiaoyao's gentle, refined smile, Bai Meier blushed, her heart pounding harder.

"Lord Jun, I…" Bai Meier hesitated.

She truly had strong feelings for Jun Xiaoyao.

But before, because of Long Ao, she had suppressed them.

Now, having completely severed ties with Long Ao, her feelings for Jun Xiaoyao erupted without restraint.

"What is it?" Jun Xiaoyao smiled.

The prey was already caught in the net.

"Lord Jun is so outstanding, yet you still have no true intimate woman beside you," Bai Meier said.

"Because I, Jun, refuse to betray anyone, and refuse to hurt any woman—so I'd rather be alone," Jun Xiaoyao sighed softly.

These words made Bai Meier's heart melt.

How noble and responsible Jun Xiaoyao was!

In comparison, Long Ao was nothing but a heartless womanizer.

Watching Bai Meier's adoring gaze, Jun Xiaoyao sneered inwardly.

The real reason he was alone? He found most women unworthy.

Not just any woman could match Jun Xiaoyao.

Yet to Bai Meier, this behavior became proof of responsibility and integrity.

"May I… follow you, Lord Jun?" Bai Meier said, summoning her courage.

This was blunt.

It was nearly a direct declaration: I want to be your woman.

"Oh, this…" Jun Xiaoyao showed a hint of hesitation.

"Lord Jun, though I was blind before and loved Long Ao, I swear—I never let him touch me, not even hold my hand."

Bai Meier feared Jun Xiaoyao thought her tainted.

But in truth, due to her cultivation method, Long Ao hadn't touched her even once.

"No need to explain. Am I the kind of man who'd be petty?" Jun Xiaoyao smiled.

Beside him, Lei Mingyuan couldn't help muttering inwardly:

You didn't think she was dirty, but didn't you just change your clothes earlier?

In truth, Jun Xiaoyao had always seen Bai Meier as nothing but a tool.

"Lord Jun…"

Hearing Jun Xiaoyao's understanding, Bai Meier's eyes blazed with fervent adoration.

This Celestial Maiden of the Fox Clan had, inside and out, become shaped entirely by Jun Xiaoyao.

I wonder if Long Ao, seeing this, would spit blood three sheng?
