109: Six Realms Demon King

"Your Highness."

Jun Shun arrived with the Jun Family Disciples, his expression slightly changing as he scanned the lifeless Bone Armor Cloud Winged Tiger on the ground that no one dared to approach. He said nothing more, only calling out respectfully.

He most likely thought that Jun Lingxiao had killed the exotic beast, but Jun Lingxiao was too lazy to explain.

He merely glanced at the high tower's stone door, which was gradually lighting up.

"Big Brother! Here! The token, the Bone Armor Tiger's heart, and its spinal cord!"

Ling Tian, completely disregarding his image, pounced directly onto the Bone Armor Cloud Winged Tiger's corpse under everyone's gaze, then began to strip it of its valuable parts.

He knew Jun Lingxiao wouldn't want the less valuable trinkets like eyes, wing bones, or claws, so he pocketed those directly, presenting the most precious items to Jun Lingxiao.

'He's not completely foolish after all.'

Jun Lingxiao watched this scene without demur, simply gesturing for him to hand them to Jun Shun, who was standing nearby.

This was how it had to be. If Ling Tian had actually handed him things like claws and nails, then he would truly be a fool. That wouldn't be loyalty; it would be pure idiocy.

Such a person would truly only have loyalty, but in practice, he would be utterly useless. If I have to tell you everything, then what do I need you for?

"This..."

Jun Shun was dumbfounded. He dazedly accepted the items in his hand, somewhat unsure of what was happening.

The most precious part of the Bone Armor Cloud Winged Tiger was its spinal fluid. Drinking it offered a chance to Awaken the Bone Armor Tiger's talent—a body of white bone armor that was virtually impenetrable. Next in value was its heart, which was also an exceedingly rare treasure.

The Jun Family certainly didn't lack such things, but he, Jun Shun, did!

He knew that if he led the team, he had full authority to distribute the treasures brought out of the Secret Realm. Even if he didn't use them himself, offering them to the Family would earn him many rewards.

A Four Realm great demon! He was barely twenty-nine this year and had killed quite a few Four Realm creatures, but today, he had just entered and done nothing, and his own Divine Child had already stuffed these things into his mouth?

Suddenly, he seemed to solidify his resolve to follow Jun Lingxiao and enjoy a life of luxury.

"What's inside this high tower?"

However, Jun Lingxiao didn't care what Jun Shun was thinking. He looked at the high tower and asked Ling Tian, who was beside him.

Because of the strange roar that had emanated from inside just now, no one dared to enter for the time being.

"Oh, inside here?"

"There's a Six Realm Demon Emperor, a man-eater, and it can speak human language."

Ling Tian's answer was somewhat casual. After all, after seeing a monster like Jun Lingxiao, he seemed to feel that a Six Realm being was...?

Nothing more than that.

Thinking this, Ling Tian was also startled, then ecstatic.

When had his mindset changed like this? Was this what it felt like to have a backer?

He had to admit, he seemed to be somewhat addicted to this feeling.

What good person would willingly be someone's dog? He would rather die than yield, rather die than be one!

Mmm ~ So good!

"Demon Emperor...?"

"Six Realm? Impossible, right?"

"Not necessarily. It might be due to the changes in this Secret Realm."

"No matter how much it changes, there can't be a Six Realm being in here, can there?"

Ling Tian hadn't hidden his words, and everyone present had heard him.

They were all full of shock and disbelief.

After all, it was common knowledge that this Secret Realm could only accommodate young Prodigies under thirty years old. There were many Three Realm exotic beasts, fewer Four Realm ones, and a Five Realm one was a sovereign, a Demon King, the kind that required everyone combined to defeat.

But this Secret Realm had existed for so long, and no one had ever heard of a Six Realm being inside.

A Six Realm being! It could be called an Emperor, with at least a hundred Demon Kings under its command, equivalent to a Human Race Venerable Realm expert!

Don't even talk about confronting a Demon Emperor of this Realm head-on; it could stand there motionless, and you wouldn't be able to do anything to it!

"Tch, believe it or not."

Ling Tian might have previously used the information disparity to help or organize them.

For example, there was one time when he, with a few words, fashioned himself into a prophet, deceiving and tricking a bunch of people into attacking Jun Lingxiao.

But the outcome, well, there's nothing good to say about it.

One Heavenly Sword strike annihilated them all.

Since then, Ling Tian no longer wanted to bother with these people. Since good advice was difficult to give, then he wouldn't give it!

Die, die! All of you, die! Let you all experience the taste of death!

It must be said that something in Ling Tian's heart had long been twisted beyond recognition by repeated deaths.

No one would believe Ling Tian's words, as this Secret Realm was not naturally formed but intentionally left by Great Emperors for their descendants to train. Even the exotic beasts within were artificially placed, unlike other Secret Realms which might be too dangerous; there was always a glimmer of hope.

But a Six Realm being, that was no longer dangerous; it was clearly meant to kill everyone who entered!

They could ignore and mock Ling Tian, this young man with no background, but they could not ignore Jun Lingxiao behind him.

Ultimately, many people thought, 'He's deliberately saying this to scare us away, so he can monopolize what's inside.'

So, after the first brave person entered without a sound, others slowly started to walk in. Ling Tian just watched with a sneer, and Jun Lingxiao also remained silent. In an instant, more than half of the people outside the high tower had entered.

Jun Shun and the Jun Family members didn't care; after all, they just needed to follow the Divine Child.

However, other Families began to stir.

"Young Miss, should we...?"

Someone from the Qiu Family, watching from a distance as everyone entered, looked at Qiu Jinyao with a questioning gaze.

Qiu Jinyao had outwardly been observing the situation, but in truth, she had always been 'watching' in Jun Lingxiao's direction. Hearing the question, she merely uttered a single, calm word: "Wait."

She didn't believe Ling Tian, but she believed Jun Lingxiao.

"Young Master, what should we do? Should we wait too?"

The Qin Family's people also arrived. After meeting with Qin Chengan in the shadows, they watched from afar. As long as Jun Lingxiao didn't move, they wouldn't either.

"Wait."

Qin Chengan stared intently at Jun Lingxiao, occasionally letting his gaze fall on Ling Tian, wondering what he was thinking.

"Jun Lingxiao's subordinate can instantly kill a Bone Armor Tiger. It seems we underestimated his strength. We need to re-evaluate his combat power before making any plans."

"Let him step into any traps inside first, then we'll talk. Don't be reckless."

Qin Chengan's sole objective for coming this time was Jun Lingxiao.

However, he wasn't foolish. The position he held today wasn't achieved by strength alone; no fool could rise to power in a great Family!

Given that Jun Lingxiao's strength might far exceed expectations, he certainly wouldn't rush in like an idiot. He would definitely probe first, then seize his weaknesses, attack those weaknesses fiercely, causing him to lose his composure, making him easier to deal with.

Qin Chengan thought, slowly looking towards the Qiu Family members not far away.

"I heard that this illegitimate daughter of the Qiu Family has some connection with Jun Lingxiao, and they were even once betrothed. So, perhaps I can use this as an opening...?"

As he thought, he increasingly felt this method was feasible.

He couldn't kill Jun Lingxiao, who was one of the Three Heavens; he could only teach him a lesson. But if it was the Qiu Family, who were outside the Three Heavens... that might be a different story.
