The sharp edge of the sword pointed directly at the center of Jun Xiaoyao's brow.
Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained indifferent.
Whoosh!
In the end, the sword stopped three inches before Jun Xiaoyao's brow.
Ling Yuan's jade hand trembled slightly.
An indescribable feeling filled her with extreme conflict and mixed emotions.
Anger, shame, hatred, bewilderment, confusion.
Various emotions churned within Ling Yuan's heart.
Her heart had never been this chaotic before.
Ling Yuan had always been cold and aloof, standing high above others.
In her view, supreme power and peak cultivation were the only things worth pursuing.
Everything else meant nothing.
Even romance, which most women valued highly, was the same.
Because of this, she could ignore the Ancient Emperor's Son's pursuit, even sneering at it.
But now, this man who was her destined enemy had become entangled with her in such a complex way.
For the first time, Ling Yuan's heart was bewildered.
However, while Ling Yuan was conflicted.
Jun Xiaoyao flicked his finger, breaking the fairy sword, and coldly said.
"Ling Yuan, remember, don't play the chaste and virtuous woman act in front of this Divine Son."
"So what if I saw? Do you want to gouge out this Divine Son's eyes?"
Jun Xiaoyao was not the kind of submissive protagonist.
Like accidentally seeing a so-called goddess naked, the goddess becomes furious and wants to gouge out his eyes.
Then the protagonist instantly becomes a fawning dog, desperately trying to win the goddess's heart.
For Jun Xiaoyao, being seen by him was already an honor.
Even if she was as noble as Ling Yuan, so what?
Even someone of Dragon Yao'er's status was only fit to be a bitch at his feet.
Hearing this, Ling Yuan was extremely humiliated, her delicate body trembling.
She was the one who had been seen naked.
And had her bottom spanked.
Yet Jun Xiaoyao was acting like the victim.
Who exactly was at a disadvantage here?
Ling Yuan suddenly felt incredibly wronged.
No matter how strong and cold she was, she was still a woman, and would naturally feel wronged in such a situation.
Seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao said calmly: "Don't feel wronged, at least I saved your life, otherwise you would have remained trapped in that dream."
Hearing this, Ling Yuan recalled the scenes from her dream, and her pretty face couldn't help but flush.
This dream absolutely could not be known to Jun Xiaoyao.
Ling Yuan took several deep breaths, temporarily calming her emotions.
Indeed, although Ling Yuan felt humiliated and disgraced.
She couldn't possibly fight Jun Xiaoyao to the death here, that wasn't realistic.
After a moment of silence, Ling Yuan's expression became somewhat complex, and she suddenly asked: "Did you really save me for my sake?"
Jun Xiaoyao calmly replied: "Of course not, I did it for Tiannu Yuan's sake."
"So, you saved me because of Tiannu Yuan?" Ling Yuan questioned.
"What else?"
Ling Yuan felt an inexplicable anger rising in her heart.
She felt increasingly irritated for no reason.
It seemed as if a sense of "sourness" was spreading in her heart.
Saving her for another woman's sake, what was that supposed to mean?
What did Jun Xiaoyao take her for?
An accessory of Tiannu Yuan?
Tiannu Yuan was supposed to be her accessory.
Seeing Ling Yuan's expression, Jun Xiaoyao sneered: "Ling Yuan, you don't actually think this Divine Son would be kind-hearted enough to sincerely save you, do you?"
"I'm not that naive!"
Ling Yuan's expression turned icy as she turned away, no longer looking at Jun Xiaoyao.
Jun Xiaoyao shook his head.
This imperial daughter who was extremely cold to ordinary people.
Was just a stubborn tsundere in front of him.
Jun Xiaoyao ignored Ling Yuan and turned to leave this space.
Seeing that Jun Xiaoyao had no intention of paying attention to her, Ling Yuan bit her red lips with her pearl-like teeth.
She really wanted to bite Jun Xiaoyao hard!
But despite her anger, Ling Yuan still followed behind Jun Xiaoyao as they left together.
The space rippled.
Jun Xiaoyao and Ling Yuan appeared on the altar beneath the ancestral vein.
They didn't find Meng Zhan or the Demon King Clan's quasi-supreme being.
The two followed the passage back to the Immortal Source Ancestral Vein.
Looking around, there were many corpses on the ground.
Some were otherworldly beings, and some were from Meng's team.
All the corpses had been crushed into bloody pulp.
"It must have been the pressure released when that Divine Thought emerged, directly killing all living beings nearby," Jun Xiaoyao speculated.
At this moment, a figure staggered over from the distant mountains.
It was Meng Zhan.
Currently, Meng Zhan was covered in wounds, bleeding profusely.
But his expression showed extreme excitement and joy as he said: "Divine Son, Imperial Daughter, you're actually still alive, that's wonderful."
When the Divine Thought emerged, Meng Zhan had thought that Jun Xiaoyao and the others might already be in grave danger.
He didn't expect them to escape with their lives.
"Just lucky," Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.
He also had a guess as to why the Divine Thought didn't attack him.
It probably had something to do with the lotus seed in the Spring of Life.
Meng Zhan looked at Jun Xiaoyao and Ling Yuan, finding it amazing that they had no injuries.
The only thing that made Meng Zhan's gaze somewhat strange was.
Ling Yuan seemed a bit unusual.
Her face was like the morning glow, her skin still had a rosy tint, but her expression was cold.
That appearance looked exactly like a little wife who was sulking after being upset.
Meng Zhan looked back at Jun Xiaoyao, and couldn't help but speculate.
Could it be that the two had developed some wonderful relationship in their life-or-death situation?
Thinking of this, Meng Zhan's gaze toward Jun Xiaoyao carried a kind of admiration between men.
After all, being able to conquer even a mortal enemy, Jun Xiaoyao's skill with women was too impressive.
Jun Xiaoyao directly ignored the admiration in Meng Zhan's eyes and asked: "Captain, what's the situation here..."
"Oh, it's like this..."
Then, Meng Zhan told Jun Xiaoyao about what had happened outside.
For instance, earlier when he was entangled with the Demon King Clan's quasi-supreme being beneath the ancestral vein, he sensed a terrifying aura.
He immediately understood that the Divine Thought must have broken free from its seal.
Then they both retreated.
Afterward, the Divine Thought appeared, and its mere presence killed a large number of beings.
The Divine Thought didn't deliberately slaughter, but left directly.
Seeing the Divine Thought leave, the remaining high-level experts of the Demon King Clan and other otherworldly beings also retreated, seemingly to report the situation.
Meng Zhan also led the remaining team members to retreat and heal.
He was preparing to look for Jun Xiaoyao after recovering somewhat from his injuries.
He didn't expect Jun Xiaoyao to come out directly.
"I see." Jun Xiaoyao understood.
The Divine Thought either went to join other Divine Thoughts or went to the location of the World Tree.
Because for the Divine Thought to break through the entire Divine Ruins World, it would need the World Tree.
And that would be Jun Xiaoyao's opportunity!
"What does the Divine Son plan to do next?" Meng Zhan asked.
Jun Xiaoyao was now the backbone of this team.
His abilities were evident to everyone.
Even being able to survive the Divine Thought was astonishing.
"Since the Divine Thought has broken its seal, we can only seek other Divine Thoughts."
"But you all have injuries, so you should rest and recover here first. As for me, I'm quite interested in this Immortal Source Ancestral Vein," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Meng Zhan nodded slightly.
Jun Xiaoyao's contribution was the greatest.
If he wanted to obtain the Immortal Source Ancestral Vein, it was reasonable.
"You want to take the Immortal Source Ancestral Vein all for yourself?" Ling Yuan suddenly interjected.
"What, do you have an objection? Don't forget whose mercy spared your life," Jun Xiaoyao said coldly.
Ling Yuan was speechless, her exquisitely beautiful jade face turning red with humiliation.
Watching the two, Meng Zhan thought it was indeed as he suspected.
These two heirs of opposing immortal forces had actually sparked such chemistry.
Wonderful...
"Such a large Immortal Source Ancestral Vein, be careful not to burst yourself!" Ling Yuan folded her jade-like arms across her chest and said coldly.
"No need for Imperial Daughter Ling Yuan to worry about that."
Jun Xiaoyao sneered, raised his hand, and vast magical power surged forth.
The Devouring Divine Demon Technique was directly deployed, and the fierce suction actually uprooted the entire massive Immortal Source Ancestral Vein!
Then, under Ling Yuan's astonished gaze, Jun Xiaoyao absorbed it into his body.
