Jun Xiaoyao was momentarily speechless.
Although Yan Rumeng seemed to have resolved her inner turmoil and returned to her usual carefree and charming personality.
But how did it feel like he had invited trouble upon himself?
Yan Rumeng had truly let go.
The man before her had left an indelible mark in her heart, making it impossible for her to ever love another man in her lifetime.
So why should she silently depart?
And why should she hide?
Although Yan Rumeng knew the status of Jiang Shengyi and Jiang Luoli in Jun Xiaoyao's heart.
But what she sought was not much.
She only asked that Jun Xiaoyao take a tiny bit of responsibility.
Was this an excessive request?
"So a quarter of an hour on your shoulder isn't enough!"
Yan Rumeng's pouting expression, on the contrary, possessed a unique beauty and charm.
It was as if an ice queen had melted, blooming with a delicate and enchanting allure.
"Oh well, as long as you're happy."
Jun Xiaoyao could only say that.
In the following days, Yan Rumeng also consolidated her cultivation.
Generally speaking, breaking through with Immortal Material would not lead to an unstable Foundation.
After all, Immortal Material and those Medicinal Pills used for Breakthrough still had an essential difference.
The only pity was that Jiang Luoli was not here.
Therefore, the effect of the Immortal Material could not be amplified through her Yuan Ling Immortal Body.
Of course, truthfully, if Jiang Luoli were here, Jun Xiaoyao might not have immediately helped Yan Rumeng.
After all, Jiang Luoli was a little jealous.
When she got jealous, her jealousy was quite strong.
At a certain moment, the entire Sword Monument City suddenly erupted in clamor and commotion.
"Oh, is it about to open?"
Jun Xiaoyao and Yan Rumeng went out and also noticed other Prodigies soaring out of Sword Monument City.
At this moment, in the Void Realm outside Sword Monument City.
At some unknown time, a middle-aged man stood there, dressed in a gray cloth robe, with an extremely ordinary appearance.
His aura was restrained, and he held a plain iron sword in his arms, an iron sword that was even a bit rusty.
The Prodigies who rushed out of Sword Monument City were first startled when they saw the gray-robed man, then showed expressions of surprise and doubt.
The Sword Tomb was very low-key among the Nine Heavens Ten Forbidden Zones.
Moreover, the number of people was the fewest, with only a handful of people throughout history, at most a dozen.
Therefore, most of the Nine Heavens beings did not know much about the powerhouses of the Sword Tomb.
But this did not prevent them from feeling the power of the gray-robed man.
That's right.
Although the gray-robed man merely stood there, with even a hint of lazy drowsiness on his face, as if he had just woken up.
But no one dared to question his strength.
At least for the Prodigies present, this gray-robed man, with just his aura, was enough to easily crush them.
Therefore, the various Prodigies present were all silent, no one daring to be presumptuous.
The gray-robed man just stood in the Void Realm, holding the iron sword.
There was even a hint of sleepy daze on his face.
And at this moment.
Two Vicious Beasts pulled a carriage.
Jun Xiaoyao and Yan Rumeng, seated in the carriage, also appeared.
Their appearance immediately sparked discussions from all directions.
The gray-robed man standing in the Void Realm suddenly lost some of the sleepiness on his face.
A sharp Sword Qi flashed in his eyes as he looked at Jun Xiaoyao.
Jun Xiaoyao immediately felt as if an iron sword that could cleave heaven and earth was slashing towards him.
"A cultivation above Quasi-Emperor, the Sword Tomb truly has hidden talents." Jun Xiaoyao showed a hint of surprise.
No wonder the Sword Tomb has only had a handful of people throughout history.
Even the one who came to deliver the message had Quasi-Emperor level strength.
It seems the Sword Tomb values quality over quantity.
"The Jun Family's little fellow is indeed interesting, no wonder the Jun Family can wield the Immortal Slaughtering Four Swords."
The gray-robed man also muttered to himself.
Jun Xiaoyao's great name, even the low-key Sword Tomb, had heard of it.
The reason why the Sword Tomb paid some attention to Jun Xiaoyao.
There was an important reason.
That was, the Jun Family controlled the Immortal Slaughtering Four Swords.
Those were supreme Immortal Artifacts that had truly slain Immortals.
As the supreme Sword Dao Forbidden Zone, the Sword Tomb naturally had a special feeling for the Immortal Slaughtering Four Swords.
At this moment, two more figures arrived from afar.
It was Ye Guchen and Situ Xue.
"Jun Xiaoyao, you're here," Ye Guchen said calmly.
Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
"This… he…"
When the gray-robed man saw Ye Guchen, a hint of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.
That surprise was unconcealable, carrying a hint of doubt and uncertainty.
"Hmm?"
How meticulous and perceptive was Jun Xiaoyao?
He immediately noticed the gray-robed man's unusual expression.
He gave Ye Guchen a meaningful glance, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.
"Right, Ye Guchen's previous life was the Sword Demon Dugu Wubai, could it be…"
Jun Xiaoyao thought of Ye Guchen's Reincarnation identity.
Sword Demon, Sword Tomb.
Jun Xiaoyao would not believe it if there was no connection at all.
"If that's the case, then it's even more interesting." Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly.
"Young Master Jun, Young Master Ye, you're here."
Ji Qingyi also appeared to greet them, and all three nodded in acknowledgment.
The gray-robed man, after his initial surprise, retracted his gaze.
His eyes flickered, wondering what he was thinking.
And at this moment, suddenly, an extremely brilliant Sword Qi, carrying an unprecedented killing intent, directly shot towards Jun Xiaoyao.
"Disrespectful!"
Jun Xiaoyao's eyes instantly sank.
He flicked his sleeve.
A fierce Law power swept out like a storm, colliding with that heaven-rending Sword Qi, stirring up boundless ripples.
"Oh, it's the Sword Emperor Son from the Holy Spirit Ruins!"
Upon seeing this Sword Qi, many Prodigies understood.
"Jun Xiaoyao, this Emperor Son originally wanted to find an opportunity to descend to the Lower Realm to suppress you, but I didn't expect you to actually have the guts to come to the Nine Heavens alone!"
As this arrogant and cold voice spread.
A man appeared.
His long hair danced wildly, each strand seemingly spewing Sword Qi, as if it could cut through the Void Realm.
But what was most striking about the man.
Was that his entire body was covered in sword marks!
Almost every inch of his skin had them, and his cheeks were also crisscrossed with sword marks.
It looked unsettling.
However, those sword marks were not left on him by anyone else.
Instead, they were the manifestation of the Sword Dao Profound Truth he had inherently comprehended.
In other words, each sword mark represented a type of Sword Dao comprehension by the Sword Emperor Son.
Moreover, the Sword Emperor Son himself was from the Holy Spirit race, and these sword marks were also related to his true body.
At this moment, looking at him, there were more than a thousand sword marks.
This indicated that the Sword Emperor Son's attainments in the Sword Dao, if not unparalleled in ancient and modern times.
At least among the younger generation, he had reached the pinnacle, one of the best.
"What a powerful Sword Intent!"
The strongest reaction was not from Jun Xiaoyao.
But rather from Ye Guchen.
His eyes gleamed, as if he had found another prey.
"Jun Xiaoyao, he's coming for me." Jun Xiaoyao smiled casually.
"Did you also injure the Little Stone Emperor?" the Sword Emperor Son said coldly.
"So what? Without the tortoise shell the Stone Emperor left him, he would have probably been refined by my Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron long ago." Jun Xiaoyao still said lazily.
However, when the Sword Emperor Son appeared.
Jun Xiaoyao felt that the Great Luo Sword Embryo in his spatial Magical Artifact seemed to tremble slightly, as if it had some kind of reaction.
"What exactly is this Sword Emperor Son's true body, to be able to make the Great Luo Sword Embryo react slightly?" Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
The Great Luo Sword Embryo, like the Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron, possessed the Aptitude to become an Immortal Artifact.
And to be able to make such a divine weapon react.
This Sword Emperor Son's true body indeed aroused Jun Xiaoyao's curiosity.
It seemed like a good idea to use it as nourishment for the Great Luo Sword Embryo.
