Starting with Check-In Sacred Body of the Ancients-Chapter 144: An Ancient Imperial Clan from the Profound Heaven Immortal Domain, Prodigy of the Yi Clan, Yi Yu

Chapter 144 - 144: An Ancient Imperial Clan from the Profound Heaven Immortal Domain, Prodigy of the Yi Clan, Yi Yu

Seeing the young man's sudden killing intent, many cultivators were puzzled.

Jin Lie, moreover, frowned and said coldly, "Slave, what is the meaning of this? Are you expressing dissatisfaction?"

The young man's voice carried a cold disdain as he said, "Primordial Royal Clan members, I kill every one I see!"

"You're courting death!"

Upon hearing this, Jin Lie's eyes immediately shot out a cold glint, and the sword feathers on his wings trembled, emitting metallic sounds.

The surrounding crowd distanced themselves, all feeling terrified.

The reputation of Garuda Sacred Mountain's Little Peng King with Golden Wings was too great; he was indeed to be feared.

"I've heard that the Little Peng King with Golden Wings refined the feathers of his wings into one hundred and eight thousand sword feathers. If unleashed all at once, he would be ever-victorious," a Human Clan prodigy said, his eyes filled with great apprehension.

However, the young man showed no fear at all, adopting a sharply confrontational stance.

"Stop!" The elderly host took out a magical artifact and activated it.

In an instant, lightning flashed on the young man's body. He let out a muffled groan and retreated a few steps.

"Apologies for disturbing the Little Peng King," the elderly host cupped his hands.

"I offer two hundred Immortal Sources. I want this person. If he is unruly, I will thoroughly tame him," the Little Peng King with Golden Wings said coldly.

Some Human Clan prodigies shook their heads slightly.

If this man fell into the hands of the Little Peng King, he would likely suffer.

The young man's face was cold and resolute.

He had already decided that even if he died, he would not submit to the Little Peng King.

At this moment, a gentle and calm voice sounded.

"Three hundred Immortal Sources. This Divine Child wants him."

A single sentence attracted the attention of everyone in the entire venue.

"Hmm, who?" The Little Peng King's eyes looked over, extremely sharp.

The others present were first slightly stunned, then heard the self-address in the words.

"Could it be that one..." A young prodigy took a deep breath, his pupils trembling with shock.

From that VIP private room, three figures walked out.

It was precisely Jun Xiaoyao, Jun Linglong, and Wu Mingyue.

"The Divine Dynasty's Eldest Princess, and... the Jun Family's Divine Child!?"

All directions were shaken, and many people gasped in astonishment.

They were not surprised by Wu Mingyue's appearance.

Jun Xiaoyao's appearance was what surprised them the most.

"No wonder! So it wasn't the Eldest Princess who was betting before, but the Jun Family's Divine Child."

Some people also realized.

They had thought Wu Mingyue was exceptionally resourceful and astute.

It turned out the Jun Family's Divine Child was behind all the bets.

But...

When did Wu Mingyue and the Jun Family's Divine Child become so close?

"How can this be? How could Princess Mingyue share a private room with Jun Xiaoyao?" The Yin-Yang Holy Son's face was filled with shock, unable to believe it.

Wu Mingyue hadn't even spared him a glance.

Now, she was walking out of a private room with Jun Xiaoyao.

"Truly puzzling. It was previously rumored that Jun Xiaoyao disdained the status of Prince Consort and even belittled Wu Mingyue in public. How are they together now?" Xia Lan was also bewildered.

Hua Xiqing, however, said nothing, her gaze fixed on Jun Xiaoyao's handsome, immortal-like face, momentarily lost in a daze.

"Jun Xiaoyao, so it was you!" The coldness in Jin Lie's eyes intensified.

He already disliked Jun Xiaoyao.

Now that Jun Xiaoyao was obstructing him, Jin Lie's anger surged even more.

"The highest bidder gets him. You can continue to bid, but let me say first, this Divine Child has won quite a few Immortal Sources," Jun Xiaoyao's tone was playful.

The one with money is the boss.

"You..." Jin Lie breathed heavily, panting. If not for the prohibition against fighting in this place, he really would have been unable to resist attacking.

Moreover, two hundred Immortal Sources was already Jin Lie's limit.

Seeing Jin Lie speechless, Jun Xiaoyao faintly swept his gaze across all directions and said, "This Divine Child wants this person. Anyone who wishes to contend may speak up."

Throughout the entire venue, people from numerous factions looked at each other, all remaining silent.

Jun Xiaoyao's single sentence silenced the entire assembly!

"Hehe, since the Divine Child requires him, then this person shall be sold to the Divine Child. Moreover, two hundred Immortal Sources will suffice."

The Wanbao Chamber of Commerce's Young Master, Qian Duo, walked over and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Jin Lie nearly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Wasn't this the same price he had offered?

"Mm, the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, this Divine Child will remember it," Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly.

A look of pleasant surprise appeared in Qian Duo's eyes; this was the effect he wanted.

"Remember, being able to become the Divine Child's slave is your fortune. He is the most esteemed in status and the strongest prodigy in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain, bar none," Qian Duo then said to the young man, adding a bit of flattery.

The young man looked deeply at Jun Xiaoyao.

Even with his mysterious identity and origins, upon seeing Jun Xiaoyao, he felt a slight shock in his heart, a sense of being unable to see through him.

This made him feel incredulous.

Because he was one of the top prodigies of the Profound Heaven Immortal Domain, capable of contending with various Young Supremes and even Ancient Freaks.

But now, he couldn't see through someone much younger than himself.

"By the way, remove the restraining artifact from him," Jun Xiaoyao waved his hand.

"But Divine Child, if he disobeys..." Qian Duo hesitated.

"No matter," Jun Xiaoyao shook his head.

Qian Duo immediately instructed his subordinates to remove the restraining artifact from the young man.

The young man's gaze towards Jun Xiaoyao also softened considerably.

The reason Jun Xiaoyao gave this order was because there was absolutely no need for a restraining artifact.

The young man posed no threat to him.

If he didn't obey, suppressing him would be simple.

"Let's go." Jun Xiaoyao flicked his sleeve and turned to leave.

Before leaving, he faintly glanced at Jin Lie, Ye Xingyun, and the others.

That gaze was calm and indifferent to the extreme.

As if sweeping over a pile of trash.

Only after Jun Xiaoyao and his group had left, did Jin Lie roar towards the sky.

"Jun Xiaoyao, at the Heavenly Dao Tower, I will definitely compete with you to see who is superior!"

...

After leaving the Martial Combat Meet, Jun Xiaoyao and his group went straight back to the inn.

Wu Mingyue, reluctant to part, also followed them back.

This caused even more hostility in Jun Linglong's eyes.

In her view, this Divine Dynasty's Eldest Princess wanted to snatch her position as a handmaiden.

Jun Xiaoyao didn't mind; he was currently more curious about this young man's identity and origins.

In a large hall, Jun Xiaoyao sat down and asked, "What is your name, and what are your origins? Speak clearly."

Jun Xiaoyao didn't beat around the bush, speaking directly.

The young man was sensible enough to know that although Jun Xiaoyao's cultivation realm was one level lower than his, that transcendent, immortal-like aura was something he absolutely could not contend against.

Adding to that, Jun Xiaoyao was the only one who had bet on him to win and had also resolved the threat from the Little Peng King for him.

The young man would not ignore such kindness.

So, he also told the truth.

"Many thanks to Young Master for your help. My name is Yi Yu, and I am from the Yi Clan, an Ancient Imperial Clan of the Profound Heaven Immortal Domain," said the young man named Yi Yu.

"Ancient Imperial Clan?" Jun Xiaoyao murmured.

The so-called Ancient Imperial Clans were Great Emperor's Dao lineages passed down from ancient times.

Such lineages were very old and placed great importance on bloodline inheritance; their clan members were never too numerous.

Strictly speaking, the Jun Family was not considered an Ancient Imperial Clan.

Because the strongest ancestor of the Jun Family was not an Emperor.

But an Immortal!
