Chapter 78 - 78: Ji Family's Pride Ji Qingyi, Nine Spirit Origin Saint Pays a Visit, So Your Name is Gousheng
Inside South Heaven City.
After the matter of the Yuan Tian Secret Trove concluded, the experts from various factions gathered in the city also prepared to depart.
Jun Xiaoyao was to return to the Jun family.
Jiang Shengyi was also about to set off back to the Jiang family.
Jun Zhangjian and the others, sensing this atmosphere, tactfully retreated to a distance.
Jiang Shengyi, dressed in snow-white robes, was peerless. Her figure was slender and graceful, like a snow lotus standing alone in the world, untainted by worldly dust.
Her stunning immortal face was snow-white and crystal clear, seemingly glowing.
Because of her Innate Dao Fetus physique, her entire being appeared transcendent and otherworldly, giving people a feeling as if she were about to sublimate.
It was as if standing beside Jiang Shengyi, one could attain enlightenment.
"Sister Shengyi, your physique is truly enviable. Standing beside you, I feel like I'm about to attain enlightenment and ascend," Jun Xiaoyao said with a casual smile.
If anyone else stood before Jiang Shengyi, they would undoubtedly feel a sense of inadequacy.
Jun Xiaoyao, however, was completely different.
His transcendent temperament was not only not inferior to Jiang Shengyi's, but even surpassed it.
"Then if I stay by your side every day, wouldn't I be able to let you attain enlightenment every day?" Jiang Shengyi teased, smiling slightly.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly and said, "Inside the secret trove, it was all thanks to Sister Shengyi. Otherwise, with me alone, I definitely wouldn't have been able to suppress the demonic corpse." ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"Not at all, I was merely assisting," Jiang Shengyi shook her head slightly.
After some idle chat, Jun Xiaoyao and Jiang Shengyi bid farewell.
When Jiang Shengyi returned to the Jiang family crowd, a Jiang family elder stepped forward and said, "Shengyi, our Jiang family must deepen our relationship with the Divine Child. Do you think it's possible to let Luoli and the Divine Child..."
The Jiang family elder gestured, clearly wanting to matchmake the two.
The Jiang family would definitely agree to this matter.
Jiang Shengyi's expression froze slightly.
After a long while, she finally managed a smile and said, "Alright, let's see if there's a chance later for me to be a matchmaker."
"Haha, that's good," the Jiang family elder said with a smile.
Here, Jun Xiaoyao also returned to the Jun family's contingent.
He currently had no interest in any marriage alliances or Dao companions.
After all, his goal was to suppress this era and stand at the pinnacle of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
"Grandfather, let's go back," Jun Xiaoyao said.
He was already somewhat impatient to see what kind of opportunity was inside the wooden box.
"Alright." Jun Zhantian nodded slightly.
The Jun family group also set off to return to Huangzhou.
...
Xuanzhou, one of the Three Thousand Daoist Prefectures.
This prefecture was the territory of the Desolate Ancient Ji family.
The Ji family, as a Desolate Ancient family, even if not ranked among the three imperial families, its foundation and strength could not be underestimated.
As long as it was a Desolate Ancient family, how weak could it be?
Ji Bangyin, bringing along Ji Xuan who looked decadent and dispirited like a walking corpse, returned to the Ji family.
Instantly, the Ji family was thrown into turmoil.
The elders of Ji Xuan's lineage were all filled with righteous indignation, wishing they could directly trample the Jun family's mountain gate.
The other lineages, although also angry, were able to maintain their composure.
But in the end, the Ji family made no move.
Because the Ji family couldn't possibly go to war with the Jun family just for a Ji Xuan who was already crippled.
If two Desolate Ancient families went to war, it would be an immortal war, and the entire Immortal Domain would be thrown into turmoil.
Most importantly, Ji Xuan was indeed defeated by Jun Xiaoyao fair and square, not through some scheme.
It was perfectly normal for the younger generation to fight and kill each other.
The Ji family couldn't find a sufficient reason to deal with the Jun family.
Therefore, they could only swallow this bitter pill.
But Ji Bangyin couldn't stand this grievance.
He made a decision in his heart and went to the depths of the Ji family, outside a valley filled with immortal aura.
The entire valley seemed to be enveloped in immortal light, with spring-like weather all year round.
Ji Bangyin said, "Is Miss Qingyi present?"
It was hard to imagine that a Saint would speak to a junior in such a gentle tone.
One could imagine how transcendent the status of this junior was.
Before long, a voice as moving as an oriole emerging from a valley, or pearls falling onto a jade plate, came.
"Qingyi is here. What matter does the clan elder have?"
Her person was unseen, only her voice was heard.
But this voice alone was enough to leave one with endless aftertaste.
"Please, Miss Qingyi, you must restore the Ji family's name and get justice for Ji Xuan," Ji Bangyin said in a deep voice.
The person he was entrusting was precisely the most outstanding Heaven's Proud Daughter of the contemporary Ji family, Ji Qingyi.
She was also the Holy Maiden of the immortal great sect, the Human Immortal Sect.
The Ji family's pride, the Human Immortal Sect's Holy Maiden – these dual identities made Ji Qingyi's status incomparably transcendent.
Ji Bangyin then recounted the events of the Yuan Tian Secret Trove to Ji Qingyi.
After a long while, Ji Qingyi's voice, like a clear spring flowing over a waterfall, came.
"Qingyi understands. However, afterwards, Qingyi must return to the Human Immortal Sect to pay respects to the Remnant Immortal's carvings. This matter will be kept in mind."
"Good, good, Miss Qingyi's matters are more important." Ji Bangyin nodded and then left.
"The Jun family's Divine Child, it seems he's an interesting character."
"I wonder, how much of a surprise can he bring Qingyi?"
...
After several days, Jun Xiaoyao and the others also returned to the Jun family in Huangzhou.
During this time, a small episode occurred.
The big shot of the Nine-Headed Lion clan, the Nine Spirit Origin Saint, ascended the Jun family's mountain gate.
Jun Xiaoyao directly appeared riding the Nine-Headed Lion.
He wanted to see if this big shot of the Nine-Headed Lion clan would be as foolish as that Supreme Nether Dragon.
Some of the surrounding cultivators who were watching were even more astonished when they saw Jun Xiaoyao appear riding the Nine-Headed Lion.
Riding its descendant in front of the Nine Spirit Origin Saint was simply a blatant provocation!
Just when the outside world thought the Nine Spirit Origin Saint would cause a great disturbance at the Jun family.
That Nine Spirit Origin Saint, however, said to the Nine-Headed Lion with a solemn expression, "Gousheng, it's your good fortune to be favored by the Jun family's Divine Child. Following him, you will definitely not suffer any loss."
A single sentence petrified everyone present.
"Is this still that domineering Nine Spirit Origin Saint?" Many cultivators looked dazed.
Why did the Nine Spirit Origin Saint become as cowardly as a dog when facing the Jun family?
"Grandfather, you..." The Nine-Headed Lion was also stunned, its body stiff, its fur bristling, and its tail also tensed up.
It had originally thought the Nine Spirit Origin Saint had come to save it, but he ended up saying such a thing?
And he even revealed its shameful real name.
"So your real name is Gousheng." A playful look appeared on Jun Xiaoyao's face.
"Haha, the Divine Child is joking. It's difficult for our Nine-Headed Lion lineage to reproduce and survive. Giving a humble name helps with raising them," the Nine Spirit Origin Saint said cheerfully.
The Nine-Headed Lion wanted to cry but had no tears. At this moment, it almost wanted to dig a hole and bury itself like an ostrich.
Too shameful! What kind of self-inflicted autistic challenge was this?
This episode, however, gave many people an even clearer understanding of the Jun family's deterrent power.
Even the powerful Nine Spirit Origin Saint dared not act presumptuously at the Jun family's mountain gate and even proactively let his descendant follow the Jun family's Divine Child.
After this matter concluded, Jun Xiaoyao also returned to the Heavenly Emperor Palace with peace of mind.
"It's time to explore the mystery of this wooden box." Anticipation filled Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
