After leaving the Demon God Palace, Jun Xiaoyao returned to the Jun Family and spent another peaceful period of time.
As for Jiang Rou, she had spoken to Jun Xiaoyao more than once.
Luo Xiangling is a very virtuous girl.
Jun Xiaoyao actually wanted to say, "Mother, Luo Xiangling could be your mother."
But he still said nothing.
Jiang Rou only hoped that he could start a Family soon and have children, which was every mother's simplest wish.
Jun Xiaoyao had originally wanted to set the date for his engagement with Jiang Shengyi and Jiang Luoli.
But now, so many things had happened.
Including the matter of Desolate Emperor, the Holy Body's curse, and the possible mastermind behind it all.
There was also Di Haotian, the Rebirth.
The Forgotten Country was also about to appear.
Jun Xiaoyao simply couldn't spare too much energy.
This return to the Jun Family was also a moment of respite from his busy schedule.
...
On the other side.
In a desolate Ancient Starfield near the Tong Tian Well.
On a lifeless, dead planet.
At a certain moment, some figures suddenly appeared.
They all carried the aura of Nine Heavens.
Apparently, this was a group of beings from Nine Heavens.
"This Jun Family Prodigy is truly too arrogant, not putting our Forbidden Families and the forbidden areas behind us in his eyes."
A Great Heavenly Venerate spoke coldly; he was from the Ji Family.
"That's right, the Jun Family is accustomed to being overbearing in the Immortal Realm, but they don't realize that this world is vast, and the Jun Family cannot cover the sky with one hand," someone from the Yu Family said.
"This Prodigy even dared to despise the forbidden areas. If it weren't for the Wu Zhong Killing Array and some supreme existences in the forbidden areas that haven't awakened, the Holy Spirit Ruins behind our clan would be enough to severely wound the Jun Family."
A strong expert from the Jin Family spoke coldly.
Their Three Great Forbidden Families descended to the Lower Realm, and their vanguard was completely annihilated.
The death of their clansmen was secondary.
The problem was that the originally noble status of the Forbidden Families was pulled down from the altar by Jun Xiaoyao alone.
This would make some Immortal Realm forces feel that the so-called Nine Heavens Forbidden Families were nothing special.
This was what they resented the most.
"Is your Yu Family going to target Jun Xiaoyao again? I heard that the peerless Prodigy from the Immortal Mausoleum, Celestial Maiden Tianlai, personally descended to the Lower Realm and was quite polite to that Jun Xiaoyao."
The Jin Family member inquired.
"No matter, there are also factions within the Immortal Mausoleum, not just one lineage. Our Yu Family doesn't necessarily have to listen to Yun Tianlai's lineage," the Yu Family member said.
"Next, we should plan how to retaliate, but it's not suitable for us to show up directly again, after all, if the Jun Family truly goes crazy, we won't have an easy time either," the Ji Family expert said.
Although they had the forbidden areas backing them, if the Jun Family really went mad, perhaps the forbidden areas would abandon them as well.
Just as the Three Great Families were discussing.
Suddenly, firelight streaked from afar.
Finally, it transformed into a man dressed in purple, with purple hair, and purple divine flames swirling around his entire body.
"Hmm, who are you?"
The people from the Three Great Families frowned, looking at the newcomer.
"I am Purple Flame Heavenly Lord, under Immortal Court Young Emperor, Di Haotian."
This purple-haired man was precisely Purple Flame Heavenly Lord, the third among the Yan Yun Eighteen Riders under Di Haotian.
Previously, Di Haotian had arranged for him early on to monitor the movements of the Forbidden Families.
"Immortal Court, what do you want to do?"
The people from the Three Great Forbidden Families asked indifferently.
Currently, there was no conflict between the Forbidden Families and the Immortal Court.
Of course, there was no friendship either.
For now, both sides kept to themselves.
"Are you thinking of retaliating against Jun Xiaoyao?" Purple Flame Heavenly Lord asked with a slight smile.
"What, is your Immortal Court managing so broadly?" the Ji Family expert said coldly.
The Immortal Court, as an overlord force, was once the ruler of the Immortal Realm.
In some previous great upheavals, it had also had some conflicts with Nine Heavens.
Although there was no conflict for now, these Forbidden Families had no good impression of the Immortal Court.
"Heh... nothing, I just think our goals should be consistent," Purple Flame Heavenly Lord said with a faint smile.
"Oh?"
The people from the Three Great Forbidden Families were suspicious.
They had thought the Immortal Court wanted to interfere with their targeting of Jun Xiaoyao.
Who would have thought a helper would appear instead?
"I have a suggestion, I wonder if the Three Great Families would adopt it?" Purple Flame Heavenly Lord said.
"Tell us."
"If we really want to target Jun Xiaoyao, then obviously we cannot directly attack him, let alone openly."
"So the only way is assassination, and we cannot be the ones to do it," Purple Flame Heavenly Lord said.
"So, you mean..."
"In the Immortal Realm, there are three immortal Assassin God Dynasties; we can have them make a move," Purple Flame Heavenly Lord said.
"Are you joking? With the Jun Family's deterrent power in the Immortal Realm, even an immortal Assassin God Dynasty wouldn't dare to make a move, right?"
Someone from the Forbidden Families sneered.
Currently, the Jun Family's prestige in the Immortal Realm was already enough to contend with the Immortal Court.
"So we need to offer enough benefits and pay a huge price to make the Three Great Assassin God Dynasties willing to take such a big risk," Purple Flame Heavenly Lord said.
"Ultimately, you still want us to contribute money."
The Three Great Forbidden Families were not fools.
Assassinating Jun Xiaoyao would definitely cause the biggest commotion.
The Jun Family would definitely be enraged and retaliate madly.
The cost required for the Assassin God Dynasty to take such a big risk would also be incredibly terrifying.
"That's why we need to cooperate. Young Emperor has promised to offer some tempting conditions."
"Of course, you also need to contribute, for example, if there is a great upheaval in the future, the Assassin God Dynasty can ensure its safety."
"They can even move their entire clan into Nine Heavens and gain resources and Dao from the forbidden areas."
Purple Flame Heavenly Lord said slowly.
Of course, these were not his own ideas.
He also didn't have the authority to make such decisions.
It was Di Haotian behind him who was signaling and instructing him.
The people from the Three Great Forbidden Families fell into deep thought.
And at this moment, there was another Void Realm fluctuation in the distance, and a faint voice came.
"We are also somewhat interested in this plan."
Several figures emerged, all shrouded in faint green light, carrying an otherworldly aura.
"Hmm? You are... people from the Cang Clan?"
Perceiving the ethereal aura like the Heavenly Dao, Purple Flame Heavenly Lord's eyes flashed with surprise.
"That's right, we are the attendants under Zhou Tian Daozi."
Those few people's tones were cold and arrogant.
Even more condescending than the Nine Heavens beings.
"Attendants of a Daozi-level figure?" Purple Flame Heavenly Lord was slightly surprised.
Because he had heard Di Haotian say before.
Currently, there were not many Prodigies or Prodigies in the Immortal Realm that caught his eye.
The Daozi-level figures of the Cang Clan were among them.
And it was rumored that there were eight Daozi-level figures in the Cang Clan, collectively known as the Heavenly Eight Sons.
That Zhou Tian Daozi was just one of them.
They were favored by the Heavenly Dao and blessed by Luck, the absolute trendsetters of this great era.
"The Cang Clan has also appeared?"
Even the people from the Forbidden Families of Nine Heavens had expressions of surprise.
They had also heard of the Cang Clan's name.
However, the Cang Clan was too mysterious.
Even in previous upheavals, the Cang Clan had remained hidden behind the scenes, secretly profiting, and never truly showing themselves.
The Cang Clan members said, "Because the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal Root was stolen, Zhou Tian Daozi is displeased, but a mere Jun Xiaoyao is not qualified for him to personally make a move."
"So we have come to eliminate this sinner who blasphemes the Heavenly Dao and the Cang Clan!"
In their eyes, Jun Xiaoyao was deemed a sinner.
As a sinner, he should be eliminated.
"Then that's even better. With our three parties united, the price we pay will be enough to make the Three Great Assassin God Dynasties go all out to assassinate him!"
Purple Flame Heavenly Lord smiled.
It could be said that no one expected it.
It was just a plan targeting Jun Xiaoyao.
Yet it attracted the Nine Heavens Forbidden Families, the Immortal Court, and the Cang Clan, three major forces.
It could be said that if this plan truly succeeded and Jun Xiaoyao was eliminated.
That would definitely cause the biggest uproar in the Immortal Realm.
After all, when the Jun Family got angry, all heavens would tremble.
But they had already made up their minds.
Because Jun Xiaoyao's Cultivation speed was too fast; how long had it been, and he had already Broken Through to Little Heavenly Venerate.
Moreover, he could kill a Great Heavenly Venerate with one punch, possessing the power of the extreme realm.
If this dragged on for a few more years, wouldn't no one below the Quasi-Emperor be able to restrain Jun Xiaoyao?
Therefore, these three forces did not want to give Jun Xiaoyao any room to grow.
Even with the Jun Family protecting him, they would still make a move!
