He saw the young man's sudden murderous intent.
Many cultivators were puzzled.
Jin Lie frowned and said coldly, "Slave, what is the meaning of this? Are you expressing your displeasure?"
The young man's voice was filled with disdain as he said, "The Far ancient royal family. I'll kill every single one of them I see!"
"You're asking for it!"
When Jin Lie heard that, his eyes immediately burst with a cold light. The sword feathers on his wings were trembling, making a metallic sound.
The group of people around him stayed far away from him, trembling in fear.
The Golden-Winged Roc King of the Sacred Mountain of Garuda was simply too famous. It was indeed intimidating.
A genius of the human race said with a fearful look in his eyes, "I heard that the Little Peng King of the Golden Wing refined his wings and feathers into 108,000 sword feathers. If he were to use all of them at once, he would be invincible."
However, the young man showed no signs of fear. Instead, he seemed to be ready to fight back.
"Stop!" The elder in charge took out a Dharma artifact and activated it.
Lightning immediately flickered on the young man's body. He grunted and took a few steps back.
"My apologies for disturbing you, Little Peng King." The elderly host cupped his hands.
"I'll give you 200 pieces of Immortal Essence. I want this man. If he's arrogant, I'll tame him completely," the Little Peng King said coldly.
Some human geniuses shook their heads slightly.
The man would probably suffer if he were to fall into the hands of the Golden Peng King.
The young man's expression was cold and determined.
He had already decided that he would rather die than submit to the Little Peng King.
At that moment, a gentle and calm voice was heard.
"300 pieces of Immortal Essence. I want them all."
His words attracted everyone's attention.
"Huh? Who is it?" The golden-winged roc king looked over with a fierce gaze.
The others present were slightly stunned at first, but then they heard the self-proclaimed title.
"Could it be that…" A young genius took a deep breath, his pupils trembling.
Three figures walked out of the VIP room.
They were Jun Xiaoyao, Jun Linglong, and Wu Mingyue.
"The Princess of the Celestial Dynasty and… the divine child of the Jun family!?"
Everyone was shocked. Many people were crying out in surprise.
They weren't surprised to see Wu Mingyue.
Jun Xiaoyao's appearance was most surprising.
"No wonder. It turns out that the one who placed the bet wasn't the Eldest Princess, but the divine child of the Jun family."
Some people also came to their senses.
They thought that Wu Mingyue was astute.
In the end, the divine child of the Jun family was the one who placed the bet.
However…
Since when did Wu Mingyue become so close to the divine child of the Jun family?
"How could this be? How could Princess Mingyue share a private room with Jun Xiaoyao?" The Saint Child of Yin and Yang was in disbelief.
Wu Mingyue didn't even spare him a glance.
Now, she was walking out of a private room with Jun Xiaoyao.
"I don't understand. I heard that Jun Xiaoyao didn't care about his status as the prince consort and even belittled Wu Mingyue to her face. Why is he hanging out with her now?" Xia Lan was also confused.
Hua Xiqing, on the other hand, didn't say anything. Her gaze fell on Jun Xiaoyao's handsome and ethereal face, and she was momentarily dazed.
"Jun Xiaoyao, it's you!" The coldness in Jin Lie's eyes grew even more intense.
He never liked Jun Xiaoyao to begin with.
Now that Jun Xiaoyao was stopping him, the anger in Jin Lie's heart soared.
"The highest bidder wins. You may continue to bid, but let me make this clear first. I've won quite a bit of the Immortal Essence," Jun Xiaoyao said with a playful tone.
Only those with money could be considered masters.
"You…" Jin Lie's breathing was ragged as he panted. If it weren't for the fact that there were restrictions set up to fight, he would've attacked.
Two hundred pieces of Immortal Essence were already Jin Lie's limit.
Jin Lie was rendered speechless.
Jun Xiaoyao looked around casually and said, "I want this man. Anyone who wants to fight for him can ask."
Everyone in the venue looked at each other in silence.
Jun Xiaoyao's words silenced the entire room.
"Hehe, if you need it, Divine Child, then you should sell him to the Divine Child. 200 pieces of Immortal Essence would be enough."
The young master of the Million Treasures Chamber of Commerce, Gan Duo walked over and said with a smile.
Upon hearing that, Jin Lie almost vomited blood.
Wasn't that the same price he offered?
Jun Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Alright. I will remember the name of the Chamber of Commerce."
A hint of surprise appeared in Gondor's eyes. That was exactly what he wanted.
"Remember, you're lucky to become the Divine Child's slave. He is the most prestigious and powerful genius in the Huangtian Mystic Realm. No one could be better than him," Gando turned to the young man and flattered him.
The young man looked deeply at Jun Xiaoyao.
Despite his mysterious identity and background, he was still slightly shocked when he saw Jun Xiaoyao. He felt as if he couldn't see through him.
He found it unbelievable.
That was because he was one of the best geniuses in the Mystic Heaven Mystic Realm. He could rival young supreme beings and even ancient freaks.
Now, however, he couldn't see through someone much younger than him.
Jun Xiaoyao waved his hand and said, "By the way, get rid of the restrictions he has."
"But, Divine Child, if he doesn't listen…" Gondor said hesitantly.
"I'm fine." Jun Xiaoyao shook his head.
Gondo immediately ordered his servants to remove the magical artifact that the young man was using.
The man looked at Jun Xiaoyao with a much gentler gaze.
The reason why Jun Xiaoyao gave such an order was that there was absolutely no need for him to use a control artifact.
The young man couldn't threaten him.
If he didn't obey, he would just suppress him.
"Let's go." Jun Xiaoyao waved his sleeve and turned around to leave.
Before leaving, he glanced at Jin Lie, Ye Xingyun, and the others.
His eyes were extremely calm and indifferent.
It was as if he was sweeping through a pile of garbage.
Until Jun Xiaoyao and the others left.
Jin Lie then roared at the sky.
"Jun Xiaoyao, when the time comes, I will definitely challenge you to a fight!"
…
After leaving the tournament, Jun Xiaoyao and the others went straight to the inn.
Wu Mingyue was reluctant to part with him, so she followed him back.
That made Jun Linglong even more hostile.
In her opinion, the Princess of the Celestial Dynasty was trying to take her position as a maid.
Jun Xiaoyao didn't care. He was even more curious about the young man's background.
Jun Xiaoyao sat upright in a hall and asked, "What's your name and where are you from? Explain yourself."
Jun Xiaoyao cut straight to the chase.
The young man was smart enough to know that even though Jun Xiaoyao was one level lower than him in terms of cultivation level, the transcendent aura that Jun Xiaoyao exuded was definitely not something that he could resist.
Coupled with the fact that Jun Xiaoyao was the only one who had bet on his victory before, and that Jun Xiaoyao had helped him get rid of the threat of the Little Peng King with the golden wings,
The young man wouldn't turn a blind eye to such kindness.
Thus, he told him the truth.
The young man named Yi Yu said, "Thank you for your assistance, young master. My name is Yi Yu, and I'm from the Yi Clan of the Ancient Emperor Clan in the Mystic Immortal Realm."
"The Emperor Clan of the Ancients?" Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.
The so-called Ancient Emperor Clans were the orthodoxies passed down from ancient times.
Such orthodoxies were extremely ancient and focused on the inheritance of bloodlines. Thus, they didn't have many members.
Strictly speaking, the Jun family was not considered an ancient imperial family.
That was because the most powerful cultivator among the Jun family's ancestors was not a Emperor.
He was an Immortal!
