Chapter 4577: The Key to Lifting the Imprisonment, Resolving the Matter of the Five Great Families

As for Jun Xiaoyao, there would be plenty of opportunities to make contact and probe him later.

There was no need to rush things for the moment.

Zhong Yuan, leading the four Guardians, vanished into the sky in an instant.

A period of time passed afterward.

Deep within the top-level core.

Bursts of majestic soul fluctuations spread out, overwhelming the four directions.

Jun Xiaoyao and Jiang Yunran sat facing each other, legs crossed.

Jun Xiaoyao, however, showed no unusual expression.

Jiang Yunran, on the other hand, had flushed cheeks, slightly hurried breathing, and trembling lashes.

A delicate appearance like a flower reflected in water.

This kind of soul fusion — its taste is indescribable.

Especially Jiang Yunran, as the cherished pearl of the Heavenly Oracle Immortal Dynasty, an unmarried young lady.

Jun Xiaoyao was the first, and the only one, whose soul had reached such a degree of intimacy with hers.

That kind of experience naturally defies description by pen and ink.

After another period of time passed.

The soul mist in the void finally slowly dissipated.

The Three-Life Primordial Spirit and the Ethereal Primordial Spirit each returned to their positions.

Jun Xiaoyao opened his eyes, feeling his vision clear and his spirit refreshed.

His spirit seemed to have been baptized, brand new.

At the same time, he also sensed that his Three-Life Primordial Spirit's soul energy had become even more majestic.

Of course, there was still a gap from an Immortal-grade Primordial Spirit.

A breakthrough in Primordial Spirit rank is even more difficult than a cultivation realm breakthrough.

Especially the bottleneck of an Immortal-grade Primordial Spirit — even a supreme Emperor might fail to break through in a lifetime.

But for Jun Xiaoyao, it was merely a matter of time.

His gaze turned toward Jiang Yunran opposite him.

Jiang Yunran's Ethereal Primordial Spirit had also returned to its position.

However, her beautiful eyes remained closed for a long time.

"Yunran?"

Hearing Jun Xiaoyao's voice, Jiang Yunran slowly opened her eyes.

She just didn't dare meet Jun Xiaoyao's gaze directly, carrying shyness.

Clearly in her heart, her admiration for Jun Xiaoyao had already reached the point of infatuated love.

But truly having such intimate soul contact with Jun Xiaoyao still gave her an indescribable sense of shame.

Jun Xiaoyao knew this too, so he waited until Jiang Yunran had composed herself for a while before speaking.

"Yunran, your Primordial Spirit should be fine for the time being, right?"

Jiang Yunran calmed her inner emotions slightly.

Only then did she muster the courage to look at Jun Xiaoyao, her eyes flowing with luster.

She nodded.

"Clan Brother, you fed back so much soul power to Yunran..."

Jun Xiaoyao smiled lightly: "It's fine, my Primordial Spirit power was sufficient to begin with."

"Moreover, your Ethereal Primordial Spirit is also of great help to the advancement of my Primordial Spirit."

"Additionally, although your Primordial Spirit has stabilized for now, your physical body's power is still somewhat disordered..."

Jun Xiaoyao's words caused Jiang Yunran, who had just calmed her feelings,

to feel her heart pounding like a little deer again.

Soul fusion, though fitting for the soul, leaves a deep impression.

But the significance of the physical body goes without saying.

Especially for an unmarried young lady like Jiang Yunran.

However, Jun Xiaoyao continued.

"But right now, so many things have happened; I still have to deal with the matter of the Five Great Families afterward."

"Afterward I'll help you."

Jun Xiaoyao's words made Jiang Yunran breathe a slight sigh of relief.

They had just finished soul fusion; if the physical body also...

That impact would indeed be a bit too stimulating.

"Right, there's also this."

Jun Xiaoyao's gaze fell on that Empress jade statue.

Although earlier during the battle.

Much of the origin power and laws within the Empress jade statue had already fused into Jiang Yunran's body.

But a considerable amount of origin power still remained inside the statue.

Empress Loulan, as a generation's mythic Empress.

The things she left behind would naturally not be simple.

Seeing this, Jiang Yunran waved her jade sleeve lightly.

In an instant, that female emperor jade statue shrank, finally transforming to the size of a jade bottle.

It fell into Jiang Yunran's palm.

On the statue's surface, various hazy runes flickered.

Faintly, a transcendent aura woven from mythical rules lingered around it.

"Clan Brother, now I can use this jade statue to control the entire Fallen God Island's order rules."

"I can also let those clans break free from their shackles and gain freedom," Jiang Yunran said.

"That couldn't be better."

Jun Xiaoyao smiled.

Originally he had already promised to let those clans loyal to the Jun clan regain their freedom.

Besides, there was also Xing Qiong Dao Emperor, who was absolutely a crucially important figure.

He had also said.

As the Jun clan's Imperial Guard Grand Commander, if he could gain freedom.

He could help Jun Xiaoyao summon those Jun clan Imperial Guards scattered across the vast wilderness.

If reorganized, that would also be an extremely terrifying force.

And importantly, unlike Jun Xiaoyao's Heavenly Edict Immortal Dynasty, the Yun clan's background.

This force was truly, completely obedient to Jun Xiaoyao's command.

For Jun Xiaoyao's future establishment of the Jun Imperial Court, it was also an extremely important force.

Not to mention Xing Qiong Dao Emperor himself was a near-god existence, sufficient to serve as a pillar.

"Let's leave this place first," Jun Xiaoyao said.

Jiang Yunran nodded obediently.

After fusing souls with Jun Xiaoyao, she became increasingly like a well-behaved little wife.

The two left this place and met up with Xiao Kui outside.

The Four Chaos Spirits once more tunneled into Jun Xiaoyao's inner universe.

And Xiao Kui had completely turned into a little girl wearing a golden sunflower petal skirt.

Following beside Jiang Yunran, she became a little follower.

As the Loulan Female Emperor's designated heir, Jiang Yunran naturally also obtained her approval.

As the Loulan clan's sacrificial spirit, if Xiao Kui fully recovered, her strength would also be quite considerable.

Enough to become Jiang Yunran's Dao protector.

The entire Fallen God Island.

Because of the previous commotion, many cultivators were trembling with fear.

But they naturally didn't dare rashly go to the top forbidden zone to investigate.

And simultaneously.

In the Jing clan's discussion hall.

Jing clan patriarch Jing Lanshan, as well as Yao clan patriarch Yao Mu and others were all present.

Only the atmosphere in the hall appeared somewhat heavy at this moment.

The Jing and Yao clans' high-ranking elders all wore tightly furrowed brows.

Jing Lanshan said in a low voice.

"Not a single one of the people sent out returned; it seems there truly was an accident."

Yao clan patriarch Yao Mu frowned: "Unknown what exactly happened in the top forbidden zone; what about that guy Zhongyuan?"

Jing Lanshan shook his head: "Lost contact with him long ago."

"However, no matter how monstrous that Jun Xiaoyao is, he couldn't possibly wipe out all our two clans' experts."

"It should be some other accident that occurred."

"Now we can only hope that Jun Xiaoyao also perished in it; otherwise it'll be troublesome..."

However, just as Jing Lanshan's words fell.

A Jing clan cultivator hurriedly rushed in from outside the hall to report.

"Re... report to the patriarch, the Xing clan and other clans have arrived!"

"Hm?" Jing Lanshan's expression tightened.

Then he exchanged a glance with Yao Mu.

The situation was still developing toward the outcome they least wanted to see.

However, the Jing and Yao clans combined also carried considerable weight among the five great clans.

Even if that Jun Xiaoyao is alive, could he really have persuaded the Xing clan and other clans to fight a battle to the death with our two clans?

Besides, the only one our two clans fear is the Xing clan's Old Ancestor, Xing Qiong Dao Emperor.

But Xing Qiong Dao Emperor suffered severe injuries and has been in seclusion all along.

Unless he doesn't care about his own foundation.

Otherwise, acting rashly would only result in mutual destruction.

Jing Lanshan flicked his wide sleeve, saying coldly.

"Go, I want to see just what tricks this Jun Xiaoyao can play!"
