Chapter 4654

~8 min read 1,520 words

The precious rarity of the Nine Heavenly Books goes without saying.

Looking across the entire Cangmang, there are only nine copies in total.

They were once the possessions of the Heavenly Court's Fate Priest and the Eight Heavenly Kings.

It can be said they are things anyone would dream of obtaining.

Yet now, Jun Xiaoyao is actually going to give such a Heavenly Book to her.

If this matter were to spread, no one would believe it.

No one would be willing to hand a Heavenly Book to another, even just for borrowing!

"Young Master Jun, you..."

Chan Hongzhuang's peerlessly beautiful jade countenance froze for a moment, leaving her unable to speak.

Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly and said: "Heh... Miss Hongzhuang, don't misunderstand first."

"This Soul Book isn't to say I'm giving it to you, merely letting you use it to comprehend for now."

"If I have need of it later, it will still need to be returned."

Although Jun Xiaoyao put it this way, Chan Hongzhuang still took a deep breath, her perfect curves rising and falling.

You must know, if it were anyone else, if they obtained a Heavenly Book.

Let alone lending it to others.

They would absolutely not let anyone know of the matter.

After entering the River of Time, Chan Hongzhuang also understood some of her own karma.

She knew that this Soul Book was far too important to her!

And Jun Xiaoyao's willingness to give her the Soul Book was tantamount to changing her destiny!

Additionally, there is another point.

Chan Hongzhuang had previously also inquired about some information.

It seemed she heard that Su Jinli also had one of the Nine Heavenly Books, a Precious Book, on her person.

If correct, that Precious Book should also have been given by Jun Xiaoyao.

Looking at it this way, Jun Xiaoyao had two Heavenly Books on his person.

But are there really only two?

The more Chan Hongzhuang thought, the more she felt Jun Xiaoyao was unfathomable.

Jun Xiaoyao not only knew their transmigrator identities.

He also knew the karma between them and the Eight Heavenly Kings.

He even had more than one Heavenly Book on his person.

It was as if Jun Xiaoyao could stand from a God's-eye view, seeing through the whole situation.

While they, these so-called transmigrators, Children of Destiny.

Were merely pawns in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.

Thinking here, Chan Hongzhuang couldn't help but recall Ye Yu's words.

He felt the waters on Jun Xiaoyao ran very deep, and that wasn't wrong.

He had also been constantly warning Chan Hongzhuang to be wary of Jun Xiaoyao.

But compared to Jun Xiaoyao, Ye Yu was still far too green, far too green.

He simply didn't know that in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes right now, he was no different from a transparent person.

He had absolutely no secrets to speak of.

Chan Hongzhuang lightly pursed her red lips, her eyes rippling as she spoke.

"Does Young Master Jun really feel at ease entrusting such an extremely precious Heavenly Book to this concubine?"

"Aren't you afraid this concubine might just embezzle it and run away?"

Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly.

"You are not that kind of person."

"If you were that kind of person, I wouldn't feel at ease entrusting the Heavenly Book to you either."

"Moreover..."

Jun Xiaoyao's voice paused, his gaze looking at Chan Hongzhuang.

"I believe in you..."

As Jun Xiaoyao's four words fell.

Chan Hongzhuang's expression stiffened slightly, her eyes seeming to flash with something different.

In her past life, although she was a socialite, a femme fatale, with everyone's gazes revolving around her.

However, those gazes all carried various purposes and schemes.

Yet now, Jun Xiaoyao's gaze looked at her.

That was a kind of extremely pure gaze.

It was a kind of complete trust.

That past life's arena of fame and profit was filled with all manner of mutual deception.

Although Chan Hongzhuang already navigated it with ease, she couldn't help but feel some weariness.

And after coming to this xuanhuan world.

Because of her identity as the Soul Devouring Clan's Imperial Daughter.

It also led to her, once her identity was exposed, facing the spurning and contempt of the masses, even hostility.

Just like before, Liu Chuan exposed his identity.

Everyone's gazes toward her instantly carried a kind of disgust, revilement, and disdain.

This also forced Chan Hongzhuang to hide in the shadows.

However afterward, Jun Xiaoyao arrived and resolved all her problems.

He did not care about her Soul Devouring Clan identity at all.

Even, Chan Hongzhuang felt that even without the favor of her secretly helping Jun Xiaoyao before.

Given Jun Xiaoyao's disposition, he might not necessarily directly oppose her because of the old grudge and conflict between the Yun Clan and the Soul Devouring Clan.

Now, Jun Xiaoyao spoke such words, completely trusting her.

Even Chan Hongzhuang's heart was somewhat moved, feeling it inconceivable.

"Young Master Jun, no matter what, I am a person of the Soul Devouring Clan."

"And Young Master Jun, your relationship with the Yun Clan..." Chan Hongzhuang said again.

Jun Xiaoyao said: "You are you, the Soul Devouring Clan is the Soul Devouring Clan."

"The two cannot be lumped together."

"Moreover, you yourself understand, you are not the true Soul Devouring Clan Imperial Daughter; you come from another world."

"So I believe in you, not in that Soul Devouring Clan Imperial Daughter."

Chan Hongzhuang's eyes shimmered with rippling light.

So-called trust is most precious.

After arriving in this dog-eat-dog xuanhuan world.

Chan Hongzhuang, who had always hidden her identity, for the first time experienced a feeling of being trusted.

Even when she previously encountered Ye Yu and the others, she had never produced this feeling.

"Since Young Master Jun has said it like this, then Hongzhuang will accept without further ceremony."

Chan Hongzhuang revealed a stunningly beautiful smile that made heaven and earth lose their luster.

She accepted Jun Xiaoyao's Soul Book.

"But, is there no need for Hongzhuang to repay anything?"

Chan Hongzhuang's gaze sparkled, looking fixedly at Jun Xiaoyao.

Her ink-black long hair scattered over her slightly revealed fragrant shoulders, her skin congealed white like snow, dazzling the eyes.

Her features were exquisite and translucent, as if carved from jade and built from snow, a dot of vermilion red between her brows, carrying a sense both pure and bewitching.

Her whole person was bewitching yet not vulgar, giving a feeling of endless allure, as if making heaven and earth lose their luster for her.

Such a woman, saying she wants to repay kindness.

I'm afraid any man would be unable to hold himself.

Also thanks to Jun Xiaoyao having once passed through myriad flower groves, he thus had a certain immunity.

"Heh... this surprise was originally a return for your secret assistance to this Jun back then."

"But if you truly want to repay, then let's speak of it later."

Jun Xiaoyao also didn't directly say anything.

Chan Hongzhuang's usefulness to him was not small.

One could say she is a monitor planted beside transmigrators like Ye Yu, Lin Ming, and the others.

Chan Hongzhuang nodded her snow-white delicate chin.

Then, her eyes flowing, she subsequently asked with a trace of curiosity.

"Right, this concubine asking like this is a bit presumptuous."

"But, Hongzhuang is a bit curious, did Young Master Jun give the Precious Book to Su Jinli?"

Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly; there was nothing to avoid speaking of.

Hearing this, Chan Hongzhuang's fresh red lips seemed to purse slightly.

"So this concubine is not Young Master Jun's only one, ah."

The implication of her words was that there were others who also obtained Jun Xiaoyao's trust and importance, obtained the Heavenly Book.

And listening to her tone, it actually carried a trace of jealousy.

Jun Xiaoyao couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration inwardly.

This Chan Hongzhuang, her level is really high, very able to stir a man's heartstrings.

But unfortunately, Jun Xiaoyao's level is even higher.

He said: "The preciousness of the Nine Great Heavenly Books is self-evident."

"But I'm not someone who would unconditionally give to just anyone."

Chan Hongzhuang said: "Then why give it to this person, just because this concubine once secretly assisted Young Master?"

"Because you look beautiful, does this reason count?" Jun Xiaoyao laughed.

Hearing this, Chan Hongzhuang's red lips slightly pursed, the corners of her lips hooking up an arc.

Although this sentence, countless people have said to her before.

But why when spoken from Jun Xiaoyao's mouth, is it able to make her happy?

"Young Master Jun jokes; among the beauties by your side, what rank could Hongzhuang be?"

Although Chan Hongzhuang said this, the smiling intent and rippling light in her eyes could not conceal her happiness.

The two conversed a bit more.

Afterward, Chan Hongzhuang's expression turned slightly serious.

"Young Master Jun, next Hongzhuang wants to search deep within this Soul Heaven King's Dao Field."

"Search for the law fragments left behind by the Soul Heaven King."

Moreover, if Young Master Jun were to go to Ye Yu's side now, he might get to see a good show.
