Chapter 96

After finalizing his follow-up plan, Jun Xiaoyao left the Jun Clan alone, riding in a chariot pulled by a nine-headed lion, and headed for the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty.

He didn't bring Jun Zhangjian and the others, and he didn't even bring Jun Linglong.

Because this time, Jun Xiaoyao was going to act alone, and it wasn't convenient to bring them.

Just after Jun Xiaoyao left the Jun Clan.

The entire Immortal Realm also gradually began to ripple.

Because the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty released news that in half a month, a grand banquet would be held in the Forbidden City of the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty's imperial capital.

The Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty would widely invite various forces of the Huangtian Immortal Realm to come.

At that time, the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty would also select Wu Mingyue's imperial son-in-law from among the young talents of many forces.

Once this news came out, it caused movement in all directions; countless forces set off, and various building ships, chariots, and flying ancient beasts frequently streaked across the sky, heading in the direction of the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty.

As an Immortal Divine Dynasty with a strong foundation, if one could marry its Eldest Princess and become the imperial son-in-law, it could almost be said that they had formed an alliance.

Those top-tier Daoist sects wanted to form an alliance with the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty to reach a higher level.

And the Immortal forces wanted to turn the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty into their own ally.

After all, it was hard to clap with one hand; even a powerful Immortal force had the risk of being besieged by other Immortal Daoist sects if it didn't have friendly forces.

Because of all this, many forces were tempted and prepared to let their disciples go and try their luck.

Not to mention that the Divine Dynasty's Eldest Princess was peerlessly beautiful and also a stunning beauty; her popularity was already very high, and her fame was widespread in the Huangtian Immortal Realm.

The superposition of these two reasons made the scale of this Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty banquet very grand.

But at the same time this news was released.

Over at the Champion Marquis's Mansion, Champion Hou Yang Pan spoke up again.

He said that if the Jun Clan's Divine Son didn't dare to accept the challenge, then in the future, he would personally go to the Jun Clan's mountain gate to challenge him.

Once this bombshell news came out, it caused an even bigger stir.

Many people felt that this Champion Marquis was simply too arrogant.

Daring to go to the Jun Clan's mountain gate to block someone.

The last person who went to the Jun Clan's mountain gate to challenge them, Long Haotian, already had grass five zhang high on his grave.

Many female cultivators who worshipped Jun Xiaoyao were furious.

"This ugly freak, the Champion Marquis, is just jealous of my Xiaoyao's peerless beauty!"

"That's right, so what if he's strong? Doesn't he know this is an era where looks matter?"

"And my Xiaoyao is also invincible among his peers; what does that Champion Marquis count for?"

In the Ancient Jiang Clan's ancestral land.

"Abominable, abominable, too abominable! It's infuriating!"

A petite and exquisite figure stomped her jade feet, so angry that the two twin ponytails behind her little head were sticking up.

A delicate and spirited little face also carried a fierce and cute little expression.

"Luoli, if you don't cultivate properly, you'll be locked in the ancestral land forever, you know."

Not far away, Jiang Shengyi, dressed in snow-white clothes with a graceful fairy-like posture, walked over and felt a bit of a headache looking at the milk-fierce Jiang Luoli.

"Hmph, Luoli can't swallow this anger; that so-called Champion Marquis is actually spreading such news, wanting to smear Brother Xiaoyao!" Jiang Luoli puffed out her cheeks, looking indignant.

"Small people just make trouble; that Champion Marquis's character is notoriously bad, so there's no need to care about it. Xiaoyao doesn't care either," Jiang Shengyi said.

The matter of the Champion Marquis challenging Jun Xiaoyao was spreading like wildfire in the Immortal Realm.

Although Jiang Luoli was in seclusion in the ancestral land, she could still get news through her maids.

"No, I want to come out of seclusion and go to the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty!" Jiang Luoli said.

"What are you going there for? Are you going to compete for the imperial son-in-law?" Jiang Shengyi joked.

"I'm going to suppress that Champion Marquis and trample his face hard to vent my anger; let's see if he dares to provoke Brother Xiaoyao again!" Jiang Luoli said righteously.

"Oh? Is that all?" Jiang Shengyi smiled slightly, seemingly seeing through Jiang Luoli.

Hearing this, Jiang Luoli's pretty face flushed slightly, and she lowered her head in embarrassment, twisting her two jade fingers together.

"Of course, although I know Brother Xiaoyao wouldn't possibly go to compete for any imperial son-in-law, but, what if..." Jiang Luoli's tone was hesitant.

Clearly, Jiang Luoli was afraid that Jun Xiaoyao would go to the banquet and then compete for the position of imperial son-in-law to marry Wu Mingyue.

After all, Wu Mingyue was also a very famous peerless beauty; almost no man could see Wu Mingyue without being moved.

"Is this your main purpose?" Jiang Shengyi laughed.

They hadn't even married yet, and Jiang Luoli had already turned into a little hen protecting her own food.

Jiang Luoli was so embarrassed by what was said that her crystal-clear earlobes turned completely red.

"Alright, then I'll take you there," Jiang Shengyi smiled helplessly and rubbed Jiang Luoli's little head.

"Oh yeah, Sister Shengyi is the best!" Jiang Luoli smiled, her beautiful eyes curving into crescent shapes.

Jiang Shengyi also smiled slightly, but there was a trace of imperceptible sadness deep in her eyes.

"This girl really likes Xiaoyao very much..."

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Ancient Ye Clan's ancestral land.

On top of a towering mountain peak, a blue-shirted youth with a delicate face and sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes was sitting cross-legged.

The sky above his head was actually like a night curtain.

A brilliant galaxy flowed within the night curtain; amidst its beauty, it also carried an extremely dangerous aura.

This youth was none other than Ye Xingyun.

As early as Jun Xiaoyao's ten-year-old banquet, Ye Xingyun had been brutally ravaged by Jun Xiaoyao, losing all face.

But Ye Xingyun had turned a misfortune into a blessing and awakened some kind of memory.

And afterwards, Ye Xingyun's character seemed to have undergone a subtle change, becoming increasingly steady and introverted.

He was no longer as arrogant and sharp-edged as before.

"Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty, Champion Marquis's challenge; with Jun Xiaoyao's character, he absolutely won't be absent," Ye Xingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, deep in thought.

Although his character had changed slightly, his hatred had not.

He wanted to take revenge on Jun Xiaoyao.

He also wanted to snatch Jiang Luoli for himself.

"Oh well, this time I'll make a trip to the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty; it just so happens I can also figure out Jun Xiaoyao's true strength."

Ye Xingyun made up his mind and told Uncle Fu to prepare the carriage.

Chi State, a vast and boundless ancient spiritual mountain.

The entire spiritual mountain covered a very wide area, shrouded in mist and clouds, with divine rosy clouds everywhere.

There were cinnabar cliffs and strange rocks, steep peaks, and colorful phoenixes dancing and phoenix birds circling.

At a glance, one couldn't see the end of the mountain range.

This territory was the ancestral land of one of the Primordial Imperial Clans, the Wanhuang Lingshan.

The Wanhuang Lingshan was a top-tier Primordial Imperial Clan on par with the Ancestral Zu Zu Long Chao, with a deep foundation and strong strength.

And at this moment, in a mountain range, an old voice came.

"Huang Huang Xuan Yi, Feng Feng Qing Ling, you two, make a trip to the Emperor Panwu Divine Dynasty; remember, do not lose the prestige of our Wanhuang Lingshan."

"Yes, we will strictly follow the Great Elder's order!"

Inside the mountain range, two figures, a man and a woman, were wrapped in scorching divine light and soared into the sky.

Above the sky, two golden-glistening phoenix birds were pulling two chariots.

These two figures flashed directly into them.

"I really don't know if we'll be able to see that legendary Jun Clan Divine Son this time?" inside the chariot, Feng Feng Qing Ling said.

"Heh, I also want to see what kind of person that Jun Xiaoyao is, who has made the Ancestral Zu Zu Long Chao lose face again and again," Huang Huang Xuan Yi said.

"But we are not that Long Haotian and Long Bichi," Feng Feng Qing Ling let out a light laugh.

"If Jun Xiaoyao underestimates us, I'm afraid he'll suffer quite a bit..." Huang Huang Xuan Yi's tone was also very relaxed, carrying a sense of composure and self-satisfaction.
