Ling Yuan's idea was nothing short of shocking.
If the Supreme Immortal Court were to truly join forces with the Jun Family.
That would absolutely be enough to suppress the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
Even some forces beneath the surface, such as the Cang Clan and others.
It would be impossible to completely overthrow the Immortal Court and the Jun Family.
This was indeed an utterly insane idea.
But more importantly.
Ling Yuan said that Jun Xiaoyao could become the Lord of the Immortal Court in the future.
And she would be the Heavenly Empress.
The meaning was already very clear.
It was just short of directly telling Jun Xiaoyao, "I want to be your wife."
Of course, with Ling Yuan's tsundere personality, she would absolutely never say such a thing.
However, after hearing it, Jun Xiaoyao shook his head and smiled.
"Ling Yuan, you truly are adorably foolish."
"Jun Xiaoyao, you…" Ling Yuan bit her lip.
She, the dignified Immortal Court Emperor's Daughter, was actually called foolish.
This was the first time.
But that tone, like bickering between lovers, made Ling Yuan's face quietly flush.
Jun Xiaoyao continued, "One mountain cannot hold two tigers, unless one is male and one is female."
"Is the Immortal Court willing to be that tigress?"
The Jun Family had always been accustomed to being strong and domineering.
Even if they cooperated, they would have to be in an absolutely leading position.
Dare to ask if the former overlord of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, the Supreme Immortal Court, would be willing to show weakness?
Obviously impossible.
Furthermore, the opinions of the Immortal Court's Nine Great Immortal Lineages themselves were not necessarily unified.
Even if the Wa Emperor Immortal Lineage, where Ling Yuan resided, was willing.
Would the Fuxi Immortal Lineage, where the Ancient Emperor Child resided, be willing?
Therefore, Ling Yuan's idea could only be described as naive.
But Jun Xiaoyao also confirmed something from this.
Tiannv Yuan's Soul indeed had an influence on Ling Yuan.
Coupled with Ling Yuan's own feelings for Jun Xiaoyao changing after experiencing a hundred lifetimes of karmic love.
So Ling Yuan should not become his enemy.
Jun Xiaoyao also did not want to become enemies with Ling Yuan.
After all, Tiannv Yuan's Soul was within her, continuing to exist with Ling Yuan's identity.
"Indeed, was I naive?" Ling Yuan revealed a somewhat bitter smile.
Could it be that fate was playing tricks, wanting her and Jun Xiaoyao to be caught between two completely opposing forces?
"That's not necessarily true; who can say what will happen in the future?"
"Perhaps in the future, I'll be so strong that I can make the Immortal Court bow," Jun Xiaoyao said with a faint smile.
Looking at Jun Xiaoyao's exquisitely handsome smile, Ling Yuan was momentarily stunned.
Perhaps Jun Xiaoyao's confidence was also attracting her.
After all, how many people dared to say that they could make the Immortal Court bow?
"So, the Immortal Calamity Sword Art…" Jun Xiaoyao returned to the topic.
Ling Yuan clenched her Jade hand, then sighed.
She took out a Jade Slip from her spatial Magical Artifact.
"This is what you wanted," Ling Yuan said.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly, not surprised.
He took the Jade Slip and casually swept it with his Divine Thought.
It was indeed the Immortal Calamity Sword Art.
"Thank you," Jun Xiaoyao put away the Jade Slip.
Then, as a courtesy, he lightly embraced Ling Yuan.
Ling Yuan's delicate body tensed, her mind instantly went blank, and her thoughts seemed to break.
Sensing the warmth in Jun Xiaoyao's embrace, Ling Yuan finally realized that she had been hugged.
A tremor and joy that reached deep into her Soul surged forth.
It wasn't just hers.
It was also Tiannv Yuan's joy.
Jun Xiaoyao quickly let go.
Ling Yuan felt an emptiness in her heart again.
"I won't take advantage of you; you can have these Spring of Life."
Jun Xiaoyao also took out some Spring of Life.
Ling Yuan accepted them blankly, still savoring that brief embrace.
"Alright, I should leave now."
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly and turned to depart.
"Wait…"
Ling Yuan subconsciously spoke, calling out to Jun Xiaoyao.
"Hmm?" Jun Xiaoyao was puzzled.
"Didn't you ask me if I still remembered that dance?" Ling Yuan said softly.
Jun Xiaoyao looked at Ling Yuan.
Ling Yuan didn't speak, but suddenly leaped and began to dance.
Ling Yuan, dressed in a snow-white glazed gown, danced a mesmerizing dance that could charm a city.
Like an elf under the moon, like an exiled Heavenly Immortal from the Moon Palace.
Graceful as a startled swan, lithe as a soaring Dragon.
Radiant as a lotus emerging from green ripples.
Ethereal and agile, making one forget to eat.
It was precisely the Luo River Goddess's Startled Swan Dance.
Jun Xiaoyao was also a little surprised, but he still stood in place and watched.
After all, looking at the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain, no one should be qualified for Ling Yuan to dance a solo performance for them.
And it must be said, as a Divine Rank figure, Ling Yuan's dance was enough to amaze all beings.
A glimmer of light flashed in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
He wasn't a prude; when it was time to appreciate, he would absolutely not pretend to be a gentleman.
After the dance, Ling Yuan's face was somewhat flushed.
She didn't know if it was because she was tired from dancing, or because she was dancing for Jun Xiaoyao.
"Excellent, I didn't expect the Emperor's Daughter's dance to be so stunning," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Being praised by Jun Xiaoyao in such a way, Ling Yuan actually felt a hint of shyness.
Of course, with her tsundere personality, she wouldn't show it.
However, just then, Ru Ying's voice came from outside the Immortal Cave.
"Emperor's Daughter, someone is outside."
"Hmm?"
Ling Yuan slightly furrowed her brows.
The atmosphere had just started to become harmonious, but someone had to interrupt at this moment.
"It wouldn't be the Ancient Emperor Child, would it? Just tell him I'm not seeing anyone," Ling Yuan said coldly.
Before, the Ancient Emperor Child had been constantly bothering her, asking about her attitude towards Jun Xiaoyao.
Ling Yuan couldn't even be bothered to see the Ancient Emperor Child.
"It is the Ancient Emperor Child, but not only him; there are three others who call themselves the Yan Yun Eighteen Riders, and they seem to be… that Ancient Young Emperor's followers."
Upon hearing this, Ling Yuan was a little surprised, then slightly furrowed her brows.
A subtle light flashed in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
"The Immortal Court's Ancient Young Emperor, interesting…" Jun Xiaoyao secretly smiled.
"I'll go out and take a look first," Ling Yuan said.
She didn't care about the Yan Yun Eighteen Riders.
But the Immortal Court's Ancient Young Emperor, to be honest, even she, the current Young Emperor, had to treat him with caution.
"I'll accompany you," Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward at the opportune moment.
Ling Yuan remained silent, saying nothing.
But in her heart, there was a strange sense of security.
As if she had gained support from behind.
"Alright then… Th-thank you," Ling Yuan said somewhat awkwardly.
With her personality, being able to say "thank you" was indeed very difficult.
Jun Xiaoyao merely smiled.
At this moment, outside the Immortal Cave.
Four figures stood.
One of them, clad in an eight-trigram robe, had handsome features, a tall and upright posture, and an elegant demeanor like Jade.
It was precisely the Ancient Emperor Child.
As for the other three, two males and one female, they wore battle armor of different colors, their auras were all incredibly powerful, and their expressions seemed somewhat cold and arrogant.
They rode Vicious Beasts and fierce birds, such as Blue-eyed golden eagle (Green-Eyed Golden Eagle) and Chilong (Chi Dragon).
Around them, many Immortal Academy Prodigies were watching the commotion.
"Hiss, are those the Prodigies from the Yan Yun Eighteen Riders?"
"I heard that they and that mysterious Ancient Young Emperor of the Immortal Court are heroic figures from the same era, each of them incredibly powerful."
"They were eventually defeated and subjugated by that Immortal Court Young Emperor, becoming his followers, and were Sealed together."
"In terms of talent and strength, the Yan Yun Eighteen Riders are definitely more outstanding than some seed-level figures; otherwise, it would be impossible for them to become the followers of that Ancient Young Emperor."
"What are they here for?"
"It seems it should be related to that Jun Family Divine Child; perhaps they feel that Ling Yuan is getting too close to the Jun Family Divine Child."
"Tsk tsk, this is interesting now. An Ancient Young Emperor and a current Young Emperor, is this going to be a power struggle?"
Just as everyone was whispering and gossiping.
Two figures appeared from within the Immortal Cave.
Ling Yuan's expression was cold as frost.
In front of Jun Xiaoyao, she was like an ordinary woman.
But in front of others, she was the noble and supreme Immortal Lineage Emperor's Daughter, the esteemed Young Emperor.
"How dare you clamor in front of this Empress's Immortal Cave? Are you not putting this Empress's Young Emperor status in your eyes?!"
Ling Yuan spoke with a cold reprimand, displaying her queen-like dominance to the fullest!
