"Sister Shengyi, your injuries…"
Jun Xiaoyao frowned as he looked at Jiang Shengyi's injuries.
Even with the help of the Ancient Sacred Body blood essence, Jiang Shengyi still found it difficult to recover in a short time.
At this moment, Yu Qingning spoke, "Don't worry. As long as Shengyi fully accepts the Yaochi Baptism and refines the tribulation transcendence immortal lotus, her injuries will not only heal completely, but her talent and Realm will also undergo another transformation."
"That's good. Sister Shengyi, hurry and refine the Opportunity here. I'd like to see who dares to compete with you."
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze swept around.
The group of Prodigies who were originally waiting to scavenge the scraps all subconsciously took a step back.
Although the Yaochi Baptism and the tribulation transcendence immortal lotus were tempting, one had to consider if they had the life to take them.
After seeing Jun Xiaoyao's methods against the Godly Silkworm Princess and others, only a fool would covet the West Queen Mother's Opportunity.
"Those who have no business here, all of you scram!"
Jun Xiaoyao flicked his sleeve, and the surrounding thousand Prodigies hastily retreated, fleeing in a hurry, not daring to stay.
Only King Yuhua, Yu Yunshang, and others remained in place.
"Sister Shengyi, go ahead," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Jiang Shengyi nodded slightly.
Everything Jun Xiaoyao did for her, she saw in her eyes.
Although to outsiders, she had given a lot to Jun Xiaoyao.
But how could Jun Xiaoyao have ever let her down?
It was just that Jun Xiaoyao had his own path to walk and temporarily had no extra time for romantic entanglements.
"Xiaoyao, don't forget about Luoli's matter," Jiang Shengyi reminded him again.
"I understand," Jun Xiaoyao smiled.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shengyi looked at Jun Xiaoyao, then suddenly stepped forward and threw herself into Jun Xiaoyao's arms.
Her jade arms tightly hugged Jun Xiaoyao's body.
Her forceful posture seemed to want to melt Jun Xiaoyao and her together.
"Sister Shengyi?"
"Xiaoyao, next time… don't leave without saying goodbye again. I'm scared."
Jiang Shengyi's voice carried a hint of a faint sob.
Only she herself understood the deep sense of loss and sadness that almost emptied her heart when she woke up one day to find that Jun Xiaoyao had already embarked on the Ultimate Ancient Road alone.
"I'm sorry, Sister Shengyi, it won't happen again," Jun Xiaoyao also embraced Jiang Shengyi's fragrant shoulders.
This mature and intellectual woman, who could face everything with a resilient heart no matter the predicament.
Yet, because of his unannounced departure, her heart was wounded and she shed tears.
This was enough to prove that Jun Xiaoyao held an absolutely central position in Jiang Shengyi's heart, incomparable to anyone else.
Looking at the embracing pair, Yu Yunshang suddenly felt, for some reason, that her love at first sight was so superficial.
Her eyes were also red.
"Alright, Xiaoyao, go. Go find Luoli," Jiang Shengyi reluctantly released her jade arms.
A crystal tear hung on her butterfly-wing-like long and curled eyelashes.
Her clear, beautiful eyes gazed at Jun Xiaoyao, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating.
"Forget it, it's better not to tell Xiaoyao, lest it cause him unnecessary worry," Jiang Shengyi sighed inwardly.
She had originally intended to tell Jun Xiaoyao about the West Queen Mother and Wu Zhong the Great she saw in the illusion.
Because that could be a path to cultivating the Congenital Holy Body Dao Embryo.
Jun Xiaoyao's complete Ancient Sacred Body was already monstrous enough; if he were to also Cultivate the Congenital Holy Body Dao Embryo, it would definitely be unprecedented and unrivaled for all ages, something even Wu Zhong the Great could hardly compare to.
However, thinking that this might make Jun Xiaoyao worry about her, Jiang Shengyi still said nothing more.
This would be a secret she kept in her heart.
If that day truly came…
Jiang Shengyi gave Jun Xiaoyao a pale smile, said nothing, then turned and entered the Yaochi.
The long-awaited reunion, just a single embrace, was enough to encompass everything.
"Jun Xiaoyao, you can go with peace of mind. I don't mind staying here a bit longer," King Yuhua said with a slight smile.
"Thank you," Brother Jun nodded.
He understood that King Yuhua intended to act as a Protector for the heavily injured Jiang Shengyi here.
With King Yuhua, an supreme Forbidden Talents, present, it was unlikely that any ignorant Prodigies would disturb Jiang Shengyi's Cultivation.
"Don't worry, with us here, no one will disturb her," Yu Yunshang called out.
"Yes, thank you," Jun Xiaoyao's handsome face showed a faint smile, and he nodded slightly to Yu Yunshang.
Yu Yunshang felt a sweetness in her heart and her pretty face flushed.
…
Jun Xiaoyao left, heading to the Life and Death Gate to inquire about Jiang Luoli's situation.
King Yuhua and Yu Yunshang, meanwhile, stayed there to act as Protectors for Jiang Shengyi.
The Godly Silkworm Princess, who had transformed back into her true form, also became obedient; her life and death lifeline were in Jiang Shengyi's hands.
However, compared to others, the Godly Silkworm Princess was fortunate enough to retain her life.
"I didn't expect that Zhu Xian Thief to escape, but with her strength, she probably can't defeat Jun Xiaoyao," the Godly Silkworm Princess sighed in her heart.
After being severely beaten by Jun Xiaoyao, she was completely submissive.
On the other side, within a hidden ancient cave.
A slender figure stumbled into it, none other than Zhu Xian Thief Xuanyue.
One hand supported her against the cave wall, while the other removed the ghost face mask from her face.
The moment the mask was removed, blood dripped down.
A blood-stained face was revealed.
Her features were exquisitely beautiful, her eyebrows and eyes like a painting.
This was a beautiful face capable of making any man's heart stir.
Probably no one would have imagined that this cruel and ruthless Zhu Xian Thief, who had stained her hands with the blood of countless Prodigies, possessed such a stunningly beautiful youthful face beneath her ghost face mask.
Her entire face was exceptionally delicate and beautiful, but her skin was as pale as snow, lacking any color.
What was also striking was a blood-tear mole at the corner of her eye.
It looked like a drop of fallen blood and tears.
This blood-tear mole added a touch of tragic beauty and delicate charm to the already exquisite and beautiful face of the young girl.
At this moment, Xuanyue was coughing up blood, stumbling to a blood pool deep within the cave, and falling into it headfirst.
Dark chains of order appeared, absorbing various precious blood from the blood pool.
Only then did Xuanyue's injuries stabilize.
"Jun Xiaoyao… Jun Xiaoyao…"
Xuanyue repeatedly muttered this name, as if possessed.
Not only because Jun Xiaoyao was the first person to injure her like this.
But also because of the sense of familiarity that emanated from his eyes and brows.
When she saw Jun Xiaoyao protecting that woman in white, looking at her with cold and ruthless eyes, and attacking her.
Xuanyue felt a piercing sensation, an emotion she couldn't name, whether it was jealousy or something else; her heart ached as if pricked by needles.
That feeling was as if the person closest to her had been stolen by someone else, and then turned around to hurt her.
"No… he's not, it's just an illusion. My brother is already dead, killed by my own hands…"
Xuanyue raised her slightly trembling jade hand, and the buried past surged forth like a nightmare.
She did not believe that a second identical flower would bloom in this world.
However, that woman from the Other Shore Organization had told her that if she succeeded, she could go to the Reincarnation Cave of the Other Shore Emperor Clan in the exotic Realm.
Perhaps she could make up for past regrets.
But to achieve extreme transformation and reach the pinnacle, she had to undergo Fusion with various supreme Physiques.
And the Innate Dao Embryo and Ancient Sacred Body were undoubtedly the top-tier supreme Physiques.
Coupled with her Fusion with the emperor consecration seal, she was one of the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors.
In other words, she was destined to be a life-and-death enemy with Jun Xiaoyao!
