Chapter 4509: The Criminal Heaven Sword Emperor, Once Pointed Out by Jun Wentian, Absolutely Loyal

The deep part of the Xing family ancestral hall was filled with surging sword qi spreading outward.

The sun, moon, and stars all seemed as if they were about to be cut down and fall.

And from within it, a figure appeared.

It was none other than the near-divine-level old ancestor of the Xing family, Xing Qiong Dao Di!

His form emerged from within the vast and surging sword qi.

And when he fully revealed himself,

it was somewhat unexpected.

According to reason, a near-divine-level powerhouse should already be an existence standing at the ceiling of the vast heavens.

Located at the peak of the Jin Zita.

Which near-divine-level powerhouse is not majestic and awe-inspiring, shaking the universe?

But this Xing Qiong Dao Di is different.

His appearance looks like that of an old man, with white and black hair, dark skin, and furrows on his face, making him look somewhat aged.

He wears plain coarse hemp clothing, and at his waist, he conspicuously carries a firewood knife.

This appearance makes him look like a farmer or firewood-chopping elder from a mundane village.

Anyone seeing him for the first time would find it hard to associate him with a near-divine-level powerhouse.

And when this old man appeared,

everyone, including the head of the Xing family, was respectful and dared not be the slightest bit rude.

"Greetings, Dongxuan Laozu!"

Xing Qiong Dao Di swept his gaze lightly and then said: "Everyone, follow me to the Tai family."

"But Dongxuan Laozu, your injuries..."

The head of the Xing family hesitated.

If it truly is as he guessed, that the Jun family has sent someone.

Then even his presence as the family head would already be sufficient.

There is no need for Xing Qiong Dao Di to personally come out of seclusion.

"It's fine, the Jun family has sent someone, I will definitely personally receive them." Xing Qiong Dao Di said.

He will lead the Xing family members to personally go to the Tai family.

Among those present, some younger outstanding members of the Xing family who were unaware couldn't help but secretly ask their elders.

"With the Dongxuan Laozu's status as a near-divine-level powerhouse, even in the Jun family, he should receive absolute courtesy and respect."

"Why is the Dongxuan Laozu's attitude toward the Jun family so reverent?"

The elder of the Xing family said upon hearing this: "How do you know that back then, it was thanks to a supreme figure of the Jun family who gave guidance and pointers to the Dongxuan Laozu?"

"It was precisely that which gave the Dongxuan Laozu the opportunity to step into the near-divine realm, this kind of guidance and favor is comparable to rebirth—do you say it's not important?"

"Hiss... just a bit of guidance could allow a supreme emperor-level powerhouse a chance to break into the near-divine level— which prominent figure of the Jun family is this?"

The younger member of the Xing family exclaimed in surprise, curious and asking.

The elder of the Xing family also had a hint of awe and admiration flicker in his eyes.

"Sword God, Jun Wentian!"

……

Tai family, inside a magnificent and splendid great hall.

Jun Xiaoyao is seated at the main seat, with the Tai family members around him.

Including the family head Tai Yan, although his strength and realm are very high.

Yet he shows no slight disrespect due to Jun Xiaoyao's age and generation.

His attitude is also respectful.

Jun Xiaoyao also understands this in his heart.

Strictly speaking, these people are not respectful to him, but to the Jun family.

However, Tai Yan and others also have broad vision.

They have seen that Jun Xiaoyao's cultivation and strength are unfathomably deep.

Even compared to the Jun family's core seeds sealed in dust in the immortal land, they are absolutely not inferior.

His status in the Jun family is also absolutely not ordinary.

Therefore, they naturally would not show the slightest disrespect toward Jun Xiaoyao.

And while waiting in this manner.

Not long after.

Another group of people descended here.

"I am Cheng Yuansheng, head of the Cheng family, paying respects to Young Master Jun!"

The leader of this group is a man wearing a purple-gold long robe, with a large belly, looking somewhat affluent.

But from his subtly restrained cultivation aura, it can be seen that his strength is also not simple.

And not inferior to the Tai family head Tai Yan.

However, what is more eye-catching.

Is the woman beside Cheng Yuansheng.

This woman has a tall and slender figure, wearing simple and plain clothes.

Her hair is like ink-black silk, casually tied up with an ancient black jade hairpin, a few strands of blue-black hair hanging down in front of her forehead, setting off her face to be even more clear and cold.

Her face is white as frost, her features, though not of the utmost extreme beauty, are extremely proper, her eyebrows and eyes are beautiful, very pleasing to look at.

A pair of eyes like congealed frost; her entire bearing carried a touch of cool, distant aloofness.

"It's Cheng Lingxue — this cold beauty actually came."

On the Tai clan's side, Taishan, upon seeing her, also revealed a look of surprise.

Among the Five Great Clans, Cheng Lingxue of the Cheng clan is a famous cold beauty.

Moreover, among the middle and younger generations of the Five Great Clans,

Cheng Lingxue is absolutely one of the most outstanding.

Even on Yushen Island, she is among the most outstanding young women of the younger generation.

The young leading figures of the Yao clan and the Jing clan even came to blows because of her.

It's just that this Cheng Lingxue also carries a cold beauty's pride.

Towards the heaven's pride and outstanding talents of the Five Great Clans, she has never paid any heed.

However now, Cheng Lingxue's pair of transparent, frost-like eyes — her gaze fell upon the white-robed man in the seat of honor.

Temperament gentle and refined, elegant as jade, divine bone and immortal bearing — like a young exiled immortal who has transcended the dust.

It can be said that the so-called young outstanding talents of the Five Great Clans of Yushen Island,

before such a peerless man, are not even fit to carry his shoes.

"Lingxue!"

Cheng Yuansheng signaled to Cheng Lingxue beside him.

Cheng Lingxue folded her jade hands, slightly bent her knees, and saluted.

"This humble woman, Cheng Lingxue, greets Young Master Jun."

Seeing this, Taishan and the others also had their mouths slightly agape.

After all, in their eyes,

Cheng Lingxue is absolutely an iceberg beauty, possessing her own pride.

But now, facing the Young Master of the Jun clan, the lord's clan,

Cheng Lingxue also completely restrained that pride of hers.

This appearance, if it let the two from the Jing and Yao clans see it,

they would absolutely be dumbfounded.

Because they have never seen Cheng Lingxue with such a lowered-brow, compliant demeanor.

Thinking to here, Taishan's gaze looked toward Jun Xiaoyao, carrying even more a trace of reverence.

As expected, where is there any iceberg goddess.

As long as status is high enough, an iceberg goddess still has to kneel.

For some reason, Taishan suddenly wanted to take a look at the expressions of those two from the Yao and Jing clans — they would surely be quite spectacular.

He also never got used to those people.

On the high seat, Jun Xiaoyao gave a slight nod; his gaze merely swept past Cheng Lingxue and landed on Cheng Yuansheng.

"Clan Head Cheng is too polite."

Seeing Jun Xiaoyao's casual glance sweep past.

Cheng Lingxue also froze slightly.

Perhaps she had already grown accustomed to the gazes of everyone fawning over her.

At this moment Jun Xiaoyao's casual sweep made her feel a bit out of sorts.

However, she naturally did not dare to throw any temper.

Even, in her view, Jun Xiaoyao comes from the Jun clan, plus with such looks and temperament, and that hidden, heart-shaking strength.

Such a person indeed has the qualifications to ignore her.

A trace of disappointment faintly flashed in Cheng Yuansheng's eyes.

The reason he brought Cheng Lingxue was thinking whether Cheng Lingxue could catch Jun Xiaoyao's eye.

Even if she became a personal maid, their Cheng clan's status might become different.

And after the Cheng clan.

Outside the hall, the void seemed to faintly transmit a trembling sound.

Immediately, everyone present only saw an old man wearing coarse hemp clothes, a firewood cleaver hanging at his waist.

Just like a woodcutter old man in the mortal world, he descended upon this place.

"How can it be… it's the Xing clan's Dongxuan Laozu?"

"Xing Qiong, the Blade Emperor, actually came out of seclusion?"

Those present, including the Tai clan and Cheng clan people, were all dumbstruck, drew a deep breath, and were shocked to the core.

In their view, the Xing clan Head arriving would still be normal.

But this Near-God Dongxuan Laozu, clearly bearing a severe ailment, still came personally.

This was extremely unexpected.

Those present also hurriedly cupped their fists.

This big shot can be called the sea-stabilizing divine needle that maintains the Five Great Clans' order!

However the next moment, an even more shocking scene appeared.

But they saw Xing Qiong the Blade Emperor, such a Near-God expert, actually come before Jun Xiaoyao, cup his fists, and say.

"This old man greets Young Master Jun!"
