Since I’m in a good mood today, leave now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Bichi waved her hand dismissively, not giving Xiao Chen a second thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph, Miss, you’re being far too tyrannical. Do you take me, Xiao Chen, for nothing?” Xiao Chen’s brow darkened as he spoke coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take you seriously?” Long Bichi tilted her head slightly, a mocking smirk curling her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you think you’re Jun Xiaoyao?

Your cultivation?” Long Bichi was slightly startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t expected this human boy to possess mid-stage Bridge-to-Heaven cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was already comparable to a heavenly prodigy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even she, Long Bichi, was only at the peak of Bridge-to-Heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom! Boom! Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their techniques clashed, neither gaining the upper hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the voice of Qinglong Shiren echoed in Xiao Chen’s mind: “Xiao Chen, don’t delay—find a way to take the dragon bones.

It’s you—what are you doing here?!” Xiao Chen’s face lit up with surprised delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Mingyue’s appearance was completely unexpected by Xiao Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao Chen, are you alright?” Wu Mingyue glanced at him with concern, then turned her beautiful eyes coldly toward Long Bichi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are you?” Long Bichi’s eyes narrowed in caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could sense this veiled woman was extraordinary—not just in cultivation, but in origin and status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leave. This place's treasures are not for you to touch,\" Wu Mingyue said coldly, her imperial princess aura radiating invisibly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You dare interfere with the Ancestral Dragon Nest’s affairs?” Long Bichi’s eyes turned icy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Ancestral Dragon Nest is powerful—but so what?” Wu Mingyue showed no fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Wu Mingyue stand up for him against the Ancestral Dragon Nest, Xiao Chen was deeply moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He vowed: someday, he would marry Wu Mingyue and cherish her deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet just as tension thickened,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>another voice rang out, cold and detached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph, these dragon bones belong neither to the Ancestral Dragon Nest nor to either of you—they belong to the Divine Son.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Long Bichi, Wu Mingyue, and Xiao Chen all paled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A young man in silver battle armor appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face was noble, marked with intersecting scars, his aura icy as frost, his body wreathed in lightning runes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Jun Wanjie, fifth in line of the Jun Clan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jun Wanjie?

How else could he know this boy would gain such fortune?” Jun Wanjie marveled inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, his main goal was to seize the five dragon bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Jun Wanjie appear, Xiao Chen’s face flushed crimson, his temples throbbing with veins, his inner organs burning with rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew at once—he’d been secretly manipulated by Jun Xiaoyao again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Xiao Chen turned to Wu Mingyue. “Mingyue, please help me subdue this man!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1130,"2026-06-20T23:29:44.332Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","59024e063f6b2052614514f6b775d5248bf7a0753e91fd6a08db5cccd1618611","starting-with-the-wasteland-sacred-body-chapter-61","starting-with-the-wasteland-sacred-body-chapter-59",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-with-the-wasteland-sacred-body-cover.jpg"]
