11: The imperial princess An Luoxin volunteered to be Jun Lingxiao's maid!

sword heart stone.

The Jun Family is a Family of the sword Dao. Before the Divine Tablet, they used this method to test the talent of their Disciples.

It was personally crafted by an Immortal Emperor or a Celestial Emperor using special stones.

These stones can be said to be no different from ordinary stones, but they have three characteristics.

First, they are hard; second, they are resistant to Sharp Weapons; and third, they emit sound when struck.

The sound produced is not related to the force of the strike, but rather a way to test one's Dao Heart, which is their will.

The Jun Family's potential is secondary; the main thing is their will. As long as one possesses a Dao Heart capable of overcoming all obstacles, no setback can stop such a person.

It is not impossible for a sword heart stone to be cut open, but not even one in a hundred ordinary Prodigies can achieve it. In fact, so much time has passed since the last person cut open a sword heart stone that many Disciples have forgotten it's even possible.

How could those who were smug after making ten sounds by striking it know that this stone is utterly insignificant in front of a true sword Dao Genius, no different from an ordinary stone?

As for why it's said to be impossible to cut into two halves?

That's because it was made by the Old Ancestor himself, a Celestial Emperor.

Not a Quasi-Emperor, not an Emperor Realm, not a Great Emperor, but a Celestial Emperor!

Could it be that Jun Lingxiao's Dao Heart can compare to a Celestial Emperor's?

Thinking of this, the Old Ancestor narrowed his eyes meaningfully.

"Hahaha, Old Ancestor! Look at my grandson."

"Who was the last person to cut open a sword heart stone?"

Jun Wenhao looked at his grandson with a smile, and as he spoke, he excitedly patted the Old Ancestor next to him.

However, as he laughed, he felt something was amiss.

That's not right!

He came to see his grandson suffer setbacks to temper his state of mind, so why was he happy?

As for the Old Ancestor, he stroked his beard, and in his faint tone, there was a hint of pride:

"It was I."

"When I was ten, my sword heart stone rang twenty-five times, and the world called me a Genius. But at that time, I knew it wasn't enough."

"So I hid my sword for ten years, nurtured my heart for ten years, and at the age of twenty, I cleaved the sword heart stone with one strike. After that, my Dao Heart achieved Major Achievement, and I had no rivals among my peers."

"But, he's only five years old... astounding!"

"It seems that a clear Dao Heart was merely a disguise, a facade to deceive the world."

"What's most remarkable about this child is a heart that was born with a clear Dao Heart."

"Indeed, the appearance of the Divine Gate had a reason."

"As for you, stop being so smug here, I feel like slapping you. Get ready to go down and greet the little fellow."

"Also, prepare a gift."

"First place on both rankings, Divine Tablet resonance, it wouldn't be right not to bestow something."

Hearing this, Jun Wenhao suddenly realized, 'It seems so, this achievement must be rewarded with something.'

"Both rankings at the top, Divine Tablet resonance..."

Everyone present stared blankly as a huge golden 'Jun' character shot into the sky. They knew this 'Jun' character would land on another Divine Tablet, proclaiming to all:

Jun Family.

Yes, just two words, 'Jun Family,' could represent everything.

After all, the Jun Family's strength was already unrivaled.

Who in the world doesn't know the Jun Family?

At the same time, Jun Lingxiao's achievement would forever be etched upon the Divine Tablet, for future generations to revere.

In the Ten Directions Immortal Court, the Ten Chiefs contend, but no single Family has ever claimed both top spots.

This punch by Jun Lingxiao not only brought glory to himself but also to the entire Jun Family, to every single person bearing the surname Jun.

"Jun Lingxiao..." An Luoxin's beautiful eyes flickered as she looked at the boy who had almost become her fiancé. Although she usually engaged in many schemes and plans within the palace, and her heart had long grown calm, seeing him achieve such a remarkable feat still made her happy for him.

This was her man.

Meanwhile, Rong Junxian looked at the pillar of light soaring into the sky, then at An Luoxin's flickering beautiful eyes, and he began to panic.

No way? Has An Luoxin really been waiting for this Divine Son all these years?

If she truly followed Jun Lingxiao, then the Imperial Dynasty behind her would also belong to Jun Lingxiao. In that case, his and his Young Master's Heaven-Defying plan would fall through, and that would be disastrous.

But the pillar of light from both rankings being at the top was right before his eyes. If he could have boasted about his Young Master's achievements before, he couldn't utter a single word now under Jun Lingxiao's three punches.

This was the Jun Family, and he... was surnamed Rong.

Jun Lingxiao, on the other hand, appeared much calmer. He looked with some emotion at the faint red plum blossom mark glowing on the inside of his right arm.

This thing wasn't there before; it appeared after he parted ways with Yao. At first, he just saw it as a simple mark, but he discovered something when he was channeling his power just now.

Strength was actually gushing out from this seemingly ordinary plum blossom mark. Although it was like the light of a firefly, insignificant compared to Heaven-Defying things like the Supreme Dao Heart, it was still a token of her affection.

"I didn't expect her to leave a gift. It makes me seem immature for not giving her anything."

Thinking this, Jun Lingxiao stopped dwelling on it. After all, as long as they were alive, they would eventually meet again.

This test today let him know his level and gave him a sense of his position.

Although he was first, it was not the time to be arrogant. This world had no shortage of Prodigies. Only upon ascending to the Immortal Emperor could he relax a little.

Thinking of this, Jun Lingxiao intended to return the iron sword to the Elder and go back.

The Elder, however, was still staring blankly at the sword heart stone, completely at a loss as to what to do.

Just as Jun Lingxiao held the iron sword, unsure how to offer comfort, An Luoxin, dressed in her luxurious palace gown, approached. Her black hair cascaded like a waterfall, exquisitely beautiful. She walked slowly with light steps, like a perfect Empress, the dazzling light falling upon her smooth, fair, and snowy skin, sparkling enchantingly.

"Divine Son Your Highness..." She walked before Jun Lingxiao and bowed in front of everyone, her clear and melodious voice emanating from her lips.

"Who are you?" Jun Lingxiao looked around, seeing a hint of jest in the eyes of those nearby, as if they were anticipating something to happen.

In fact, he had noticed this woman when he first arrived. Her attire, temperament, and appearance were all top-notch, making her stand out from the people around her.

But he had seen and experienced such things in his previous life. He wasn't a lecherous pig, and he deeply understood the principle of 'beauty being but a skeleton in disguise.' Therefore, when it came to women, he leaned towards absolute rationality.

If you are useful to me, I will glance at you; if you are useless, I will discard you.

An Luoxin didn't know what Jun Lingxiao was thinking, she just lowered her head and continued:

"This concubine An Luoxin, is the Eldest Princess of the Immortal Dynasty, a branch of the Jun Family."

An Luoxin's temperament was truly exceptional. Although her Phoenix eyes were cast down at this moment, they still appeared haughty, greatly increasing one's desire to conquer her.

And now Jun Lingxiao finally understood why she seemed out of place; she was a Princess.

But what did that have to do with him?

So Jun Lingxiao motioned with his eyes for her to continue.

"I heard the Elder say that Divine Son lacks a maid..."

An Luoxin, dressed in a long palace gown, half-knelt. She lowered her head, her red lips slightly parted. Although she didn't say it directly, everyone understood the implied meaning, and her words were astonishing.

The onlookers, who had been expecting a good show, now felt they couldn't believe their ears.

They had thought An Luoxin would at most become a follower under Jun Lingxiao's tutelage, finding a good backer for herself.

But they never expected that she actually wanted to become Jun Lingxiao's personal maid!

In a Family, for a woman to be a maid to a young master, the meaning was self-evident.

The young master's maid in a prominent Family was expected to share his bed...
