119: A hero saving a beautiful girl? No, she doesn't need to be saved.
When Jun Lingxiao, in a serious manner, said that he had killed a similar person in the Lower Realm, the atmosphere on the field froze for a moment.
It felt as if he could erupt at any moment and cut down this little girl with his sword.
However, of course, Jun Lingxiao only said these things to scare her.
No matter the reason, it couldn't cover up the fact that Jun Chengtian abandoned his wife and son and eloped with someone else.
Although Jun Lingxiao held no resentment towards his biological father, it seemed that his half-sister wasn't living a much better life either; she was merely a victim.
"Let's go, let's go inside and take a look."
After clarifying this point, Jun Lingxiao no longer hesitated. This Secret Realm trip had convinced the True Dragon Clan and even brought along a half-sister; it could actually be considered Perfection.
However, he heard the True Dragon Clan say that the core of this ancient battlefield was actually within this underground palace. He wasn't lacking Legacy treasures, but since he was already here, there was no harm in going in to take a look.
"We can go in now?"
Jun Hongxuan watched Jun Lingxiao walk in, stunned for a moment, then followed him, only to find that the barrier had disappeared.
"Brother, what kind of method is this again?"
"Where did you disappear to just now?"
Jun Hongxuan was completely astonished.
"I went to the True Dragon Clan and told them to return to the Jun Family with me."
"Ah? No, you succeeded? What was the price?"
Jun Hongxuan was dumbfounded. So many people hadn't accomplished this before, but Jun Lingxiao did it in such a short time?
"Otherwise?" Jun Lingxiao walked ahead, glancing at him nonchalantly.
"But you might have misunderstood. It wasn't me who found the True Dragon Clan; it was the True Dragon Clan who found me."
"They are truly clever, using provocation without leaving a trace. It seemed like reluctant agreement, but in reality, they had been planning for a long time, just waiting for an opportunity. And even if there wasn't an opportunity, they would probably have actively come to the Jun Family later under the pretext of returning a Jun Family descendant."
"They are all old monsters; how could they be willing to hide forever? And how could they be manipulated by juniors like us? We merely gained an opportunity."
The True Dragon Clan seemed easy to talk to, but Jun Lingxiao understood everything. What just happened was merely a play where one was willing to be beaten and the other willing to suffer.
"Ah?" Jun Hongxuan was dumbfounded. He could understand the words separately, but not when they were put together. However, he was truly afraid that Jun Lingxiao had made some kind of deal with the other party.
"Brother, I'm telling you, don't do anything foolish. The True Dragon Clan and everything else are fleeting. Right now, you are more important."
However, Jun Lingxiao chuckled and shook his head at this.
"It's too late."
"There is indeed a price, and that price is me."
"You?"
"You?"
Jun Hongxuan and Chu Gaodan spoke at the same time, then looked at each other.
"No, why is someone from the Chu Family joining in the fun?"
"That's not necessarily true. Your Highness is not only a member of your Jun Family; he also has our Chu Family's blood!"
Chu Gaodan was still thinking about how to trick Jun Lingxiao back to the Chu Family when he suddenly heard that he had sold himself to the True Dragon Clan. How could he not be anxious!
The two, who were polite before entering the Secret Realm, suddenly became a thousand times more familiar and began to tease each other. Ling Tian just watched from the side, even starting to snack.
"The main characters' CP is so shippable. Jun Hongxuan and Chu Gaodan... it's not impossible, right?"
His eyes sparkled, completely treating himself as a passerby audience, even pulling the bewildered Jun Shun to watch the show.
"Why does it feel like this Secret Realm is a bit different?" Jun Shun dazedly took Ling Tian's snack and numbly put it into his mouth.
He had led teams more than once. Although there were no overly dangerous moments, he was always very careful and cautious each time.
But this time, with Jun Lingxiao present, his group didn't look like they were here for training at all; they looked like they were here for a leisurely trip.
Just as the group was slowly walking inside, suddenly, a series of roars came from within, clearly indicating a battle.
"Brother, this is..."
Jun Hongxuan looked at the direction of the fight from afar. At first, he didn't think much of it, until he saw a surge of bloody Qi soaring into the sky, and his expression suddenly changed as he remembered something.
"Mm, it's the Qin Family."
All Ten Heads Families have their own Dao that they Cultivate. The bloody Qi soaring into the sky was undoubtedly from the Qin Family, and the other side... was the Qiu Family.
— — — — — —
Inside the underground palace, the battle was indeed between Qin Chengan and Qiu Jinyao, but the situation might have exceeded everyone's expectations.
"Blood Soldier transforms into Hammer, break for me!"
Qin Chengan, with a solemn expression, leaped down from the sky. After a furious roar, countless bloody Qi overflowed from his body, then attached to the blood-colored long saber in his hand, transforming it into a large hammer that fiercely fell towards Qiu Jinyao below!
"Smoke rises."
Qiu Jinyao showed no panic in the face of the hammer's overwhelming force. Her body rotated, and a wisp of fine sand drifted from her fingertips, forming a barrier.
The blood-red hammer descended with a whistling sound, even faintly cutting through the surrounding Void Realm. The mere killing intent it carried could cut hair.
But even such a terrifying hammer, when it landed on that thin layer of fine sand, was unable to descend another inch!
After only a brief exchange, drops of cold sweat had already appeared on Qin Chengan's forehead. He had completely underestimated how strong Qiu Jinyao was!
After receiving the Senior's Legacy, Qin Chengan wanted to take advantage of Jun Lingxiao being unable to enter and not having obtained anything yet to cause him trouble. He encountered Qiu Jinyao along the way and initially thought of capturing her first to use as a hostage.
But he miscalculated!!!
Qiu Jinyao seemed delicate, and was even blind, but her strength was extremely formidable!
Forget about looking for Jun Lingxiao; he had already hit a wall right here!!!
"How could you be so strong? How many resources did the Qiu Family spend on you?"
Unable to break the stalemate, Qin Chengan reluctantly withdrew his power, jumped back, and then looked at Qiu Jinyao, questioning her.
Although the Qiu Family was also one of the Ten Chiefs, it was still quite inferior compared to the Qin Family, not to mention that the person in front of him was the Qiu Family's famous illegitimate daughter.
But this illegitimate daughter actually fought to a draw with him, who had received a Legacy?
It was simply ridiculous!
"How many resources did the Qiu Family spend on me?"
Although Qiu Jinyao couldn't see Qin Chengan's expression, hearing his words still made her sneer: "Qin Chengan of the Qin Family, I know you. You've had a smooth journey, even protected by a Prodigy cousin, so it's normal for you to say such things."
"If you want to know, I don't mind telling you."
"The Qiu Family naturally spent a lot on me, countless poisonings, over a dozen chases, seven assassinations, and four or five open attacks. Of course, there was no lack of my stepmother's ostracism, my stepsister's instigation, and countless people's contempt, denigration, as well as curses and scorn."
As she spoke, she seemed to be recounting her entire life, a hint of sarcasm on her lips.
"I have died many times in this life. Once, when I was young, my sister tricked me into being locked in the cellar. Once, I was framed and chased out of the Qiu Family. Once, I met him. Once again, I returned to the Qiu Family. Good or bad, I endured it all."
"Since then, I swore that I must become strong, strong enough to trample everyone underfoot! To crush them mercilessly!"
"I have no family or friends here, only enemies and him."
"You say you want to defeat me, someone like this, and then threaten him?"
As she spoke, Qiu Jinyao's Aura grew denser, her solidified killing intent even stronger than Qin Chengan's, which was simply outrageous!
But he couldn't be blamed; it was because Qin Chengan had precisely stepped on Qiu Jinyao's two sore spots.
One was: you shouldn't underestimate me.
The other was: you shouldn't dare to touch him.
Qin Chengan barely dodged a round of Qiu Jinyao's attacks, his face extremely grim.
In fact, Qiu Jinyao had the assistance of the Qiu Family on one hand, and Jun Lingxiao giving her special tutoring on the other, so she wasn't much different from Qin Chengan in terms of Cultivation resources. Moreover, the main reason was their different growth environments and mentalities, which led to him hitting a wall so suddenly.
Before coming: Isn't the Qiu Family's illegitimate daughter easy to handle?
After coming: Where the hell did you, a Prodigy, come from?
After obtaining the Senior's Legacy, he naturally still had trump cards, but his trump cards were reserved for Jun Lingxiao! If he used them here, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?
Thinking of this, Qin Chengan no longer hesitated and immediately turned to flee.
If you can't win, reflect on yourself. Is it because you don't have enough trump cards? He no longer wanted to look for Jun Lingxiao now. He had learned the location of the altar from the Senior's mouth before, and the countless Human Race Seniors in the altar were the true powerhouses.
If one Qin Family Legacy isn't enough, then I'll seize a few more!
By then, just using the Senior's Legacy will be enough to directly crush Jun Lingxiao!
