121: Looking for inheritance? No, I want the inheritance to come to me.
"Go back to the Chu Family with you?"
"Since I am not one of the Chu Family People, how can I speak of returning?"
Chu Gaodan's expression changed upon hearing this, and he was about to say something, but Jun Lingxiao stopped him with a raised hand.
He walked a few steps away before continuing, "You haven't clarified where the problem lies."
"The Chu Family is dispensable to me. Going there or not, it actually doesn't matter to me. But I didn't go, do you know why?"
"The Chu Family left my mother in the Jun Family for so many years, ignoring her. Now, just because her son might be linked to the word 'pure blood,' they suddenly act like completely different people. How does this make my mother feel? Have any of you ever considered that?"
"Your Chu Family places too much importance on this so-called pure blood, to the point of getting your priorities wrong."
"The one you should be persuading isn't me."
Chu Gaodan's attitude, from his appearance until now, had been quite acceptable, so Jun Lingxiao didn't mind giving him a hint.
Although Chu Yi was indeed not a very good mother, she was still extremely kind to him. She was the one who suffered, so only she could forgive.
Imagine, your husband abandons his wife and child, and your son, for a small favor, immediately rushes into the embrace of the Chu Family. It truly is a scene of utter betrayal.
Jun Lingxiao didn't want to break his mother's heart.
"This..."
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your guidance."
Chu Gaodan understood the current priority after listening. After several changes in his expression, he finally bowed respectfully to Jun Lingxiao, his admiration for the young man growing even deeper.
This time, it wasn't because of his pure blood status, but a genuine feeling from his heart.
"Then, Your Highness, I'll be back shortly."
With that, he walked into the distance, seemingly intending to take out something to transmit a message, clearly wanting to inform the people outside about Jun Lingxiao's recent words.
Jun Lingxiao watched him, then shook his head helplessly, "He really can't wait a moment."
"Such an obvious problem couldn't have gone unnoticed by everyone. What exactly is this so-called pure blood to the Chu Family, that it could blind them so much?"
"Do you know?"
Jun Lingxiao said, looking at Jun Siyu, who was tightly holding his hand.
Upon seeing Jun Lingxiao suddenly look over, her eyes showed a momentary confusion, but in the end, she pursed her small lips and remained silent.
"You don't know."
He said, pressing down the proudly raised head of Bai Yu on his shoulder, and sighed softly:
"You don't know either."
After speaking, Jun Lingxiao's expression changed, "Then now, let's do something serious."
With a little one beside him and many hidden guards around, it wasn't exactly quiet.
But it didn't matter.
"System, check in."
"Ding! There are usable items. Do you want to use them?"
"Items?"
Jun Lingxiao was stunned, then remembered the two Check-in Critical Strike Vouchers. But high-value check-in locations already give critical strikes, so could they still be used?
After pondering for a moment, he made a mental command and chose to use them anyway, as there was no harm in it.
However, to his surprise, these things could actually be used together?
"Ding! Check-in Critical Strike Voucher used successfully."
"Ding! Check-in Critical Strike Voucher used successfully."
"Ding! Check-in successful. Congratulations to the host for checking in at a high-value location and obtaining a [??] tier reward: Human Race Altar."
"Please wait in place. Reward is being distributed..."
"Distribution complete."
When he saw the two question marks, Jun Lingxiao wondered if the System was finally going to crash. Then, before he could think much, a series of prompts appeared.
When he opened his eyes again, a tall, square tablet suddenly appeared before him, followed by a huge suction force that tried to pull him into it.
"!!"
Jun Lingxiao wasn't in a hurry, but Jun Siyu was the first to panic.
Her eyes were filled with fear, and her face was full of helplessness. Although she didn't know what this square tablet was, she was pulling Jun Lingxiao hard, trying to prevent him from leaving.
This scene was quite interesting to him.
He reached out and patted her hand:
"Don't be afraid."
Then, letting go, Jun Lingxiao was sucked into the square tablet.
Jun Siyu was left in place, her eyes wide, filled with fear, unease, grievance, and faint memories surfacing in her gaze.
Her father and mother had said the same thing when they left.
Don't be afraid.
We'll be back.
But what was the result?
She had just thought that she finally had a family member, and could go find the kind and amiable grandfather her father spoke of, but now, was her brother also going to leave her?
As she thought, Jun Siyu's eyes gradually became hollow.
However, on the other side, Jun Lingxiao didn't know what his nominal younger sister was thinking. He was currently in a mysterious space after being sucked into the square tablet.
Before he could figure out what was happening, murmurs already echoed around him.
"Is this kid the Human Race inheritor of this generation? Why is he as thin as a monkey?"
"Hiss~ Hard to say. Probably from a poor family, couldn't afford food. Back when I was..."
"Get lost, you! I think you've gone senile from staying here. Does his clothing have any relation to being from a poor family? And what was 'your time'? An era where beast tendons were used as underwear, can that compare to now?"
"But this kid's cultivation is quite good... Oh? He already learned the Legacy?"
"This bird... is it a Sacred Phoenix? But why does it have four eyes?"
"You're senile. This is a Sacred Phoenix Royal Family, born with Imperial Blood. But these wings... double wings?"
"It's the Heavenly Human Race's supreme treasure, Profound Grass. Quite a rare item."
They talked incessantly, one after another. Jun Lingxiao looked up and saw a group of old men surrounding him, looking at him like he was a monkey.
Seeing Jun Lingxiao look up, an old man pushed through the crowd, reached out to him, and pulled him up.
"Kid, welcome to the Human Emperor Dao Field. This is the training ground for Human Emperors."
"Successive Human Emperors have risen from here, advancing through all the heavens and myriad worlds."
"I am the previous Human Emperor. Of course, to speak more intimately, you might know my name, Jun Yongzheng."
"I've seen your actions in the Jun Family. You've worked hard. Here, you can rest for a while."
Jun Yongzheng... Jun Lingxiao lowered his gaze slightly upon hearing this name. If he remembered correctly.
On the God Tablet Platform, the one who, with 1.33 million power, forever cemented the Jun Family in the first position... was named Jun Yongzheng.

At the same time, deep within the underground palace.
After overcoming countless difficulties, Qin Chengan finally arrived at the secret chamber mentioned by the Senior.
But at this moment, Qin Chengan looked at the empty secret chamber, momentarily doubting himself.
"Where's the Altar?"
