Chapter 77 - 77: Wu Mingyue Returns to the Dynasty, Xiao Chen's Last Chance, the Self-Sealed Ancient Monstrosity of the Ancestral Dragon Nest

"What 'few people standing at the peak'? That Jun Xiaoyao is so malicious, scheming, and cold-hearted. Is he even worthy?"

As Xiao Chen traveled, he heard various rumors about Jun Xiaoyao, causing his face to darken and making him unable to resist cursing.

Beside him, Wu Mingyue remained silent, seemingly preoccupied.

She also gradually realized that Xiao Chen might not be as perfect as she had imagined.

Xiao Chen's ruthless attack on Jun Wanjie made her feel as if she were looking at a stranger.

And now, Xiao Chen's face was filled with disgust, but in reality, his heart was full of jealousy.

Of course, Wu Mingyue couldn't possibly distance herself from Xiao Chen for these reasons.

After all, Xiao Chen still had many good qualities: a resolute character, unyielding perseverance, and he treated her very well.

Xiao Chen noticed Wu Mingyue seemed preoccupied and thought she was worried about returning to the dynasty. He couldn't help but ask, "Mingyue, is there really no other way?"

Hearing this, Wu Mingyue slightly shook her head and said, "My Dao Protector has probably already found me."

Just as her voice fell, in the distant void, an old woman in palace robes stepped through the air and landed in front of Wu Mingyue.

"A Saint..." Xiao Chen's heart tensed.

That pressure was undoubtedly that of a Saint.

Seeing Wu Mingyue, the old woman in palace robes bowed slightly and said, "Your Highness, you've made this old servant search for quite a while."

"Granny Gui, you found me after all." Wu Mingyue sighed softly, not surprised.

"Your Highness, you've had enough fun. It's time to go back," Granny Gui said.

"Heh, and after I go back? Marry that arrogant Champion Marquis who has concubines in droves?" Wu Mingyue sneered.

"Not necessarily. Only the most outstanding man is worthy of Your Highness."

"The Divine Dynasty will hold a grand banquet for you this time, inviting young talents from all the factions in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain to decide on the final candidate for imperial son-in-law."

"Also, this old servant heard that the Jun family's Divine Child also came this time. Did Your Highness have any interaction with him? If it's him, perhaps he would also be a good choice," Granny Gui suggested with a smile.

Hearing this, Wu Mingyue's expression became slightly unnatural.

More than just interaction?

She had already become Jun Xiaoyao's servant.

Only she and Jun Xiaoyao knew about this.

But when Xiao Chen heard this, he immediately bristled.

Of all people, Granny Gui had to mention Jun Xiaoyao, practically walking right into Xiao Chen's line of fire.

"Hmph, is Jun Xiaoyao even worthy of a single finger of Mingyue?" Xiao Chen said coldly.

"Hmm? Where did this wild brat come from, daring to speak to this old servant like that?" Granny Gui frowned, and a Saint's pressure was released.

Xiao Chen was not Jun Xiaoyao; how could he withstand a Saint's pressure?

He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward.

Wu Mingyue's expression changed, and she said in a low voice, "Granny Gui, stop!"

"Princess, who is this brat?" Granny Gui asked.

"He is the Eldest Prince of the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom," Wu Mingyue said.

"Oh, so it's the prince of a small kingdom." Granny Gui's expression was indifferent, almost contemptuous.

As a Saint of the Panwu Divine Dynasty, she indeed had the qualifications to look down on others like this.

"This old hag..." Xiao Chen got up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression cold and stern, cursing inwardly.

"Xiao Chen, I'm sorry. Are you alright?" Wu Mingyue said.

Seeing this, Granny Gui said indifferently, "Your Highness, please understand your status. A prince from such a small kingdom is not worthy of being with you."

"Your husband must at least be a supreme prodigy with a profound background and extraordinary strength like the Jun family's Divine Child."

"Enough, Granny Gui, say no more. Mingyue will go back with you," Wu Mingyue ordered her to stop.

Because she had already seen Xiao Chen's gloomy and somewhat terrifying expression.

"Princess, please." Granny Gui couldn't be bothered to argue with a minor character like Xiao Chen and said indifferently.

Wu Mingyue followed.

Xiao Chen clenched his fists tightly and said coldly, "Don't look down on people! On the day Mingyue chooses her imperial son-in-law, I, Xiao Chen, will definitely step into the Divine Dynasty's imperial palace!"

"Heh, an overconfident ant." Granny Gui paid no attention and directly left with Wu Mingyue.

Wu Mingyue looked back, her lips slightly parted.

Looking at Xiao Chen's resolute face, she couldn't bring herself to say the cruel truth.

If she said now that she had already become Jun Xiaoyao's female slave.

Xiao Chen would probably explode with anger on the spot, right?

"Sigh, I can only take it one step at a time and see if there's a chance in the future for that Jun Xiaoyao to remove the slave mark for me," Wu Mingyue sighed inwardly.

Xiao Chen watched Wu Mingyue walk further and further away, his fists clenched so tightly that blood dripped from between his fingers.

"Ancestor, now that we've lost the dragon bones, what should we do?" Xiao Chen asked in his heart.

Without the dragon bones, his Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art couldn't advance further, and his strength couldn't improve.

At that time, what would he use to snatch the bride?

Snatch her with his head?

"Sigh, that Jun family's Divine Child is truly terrifying..." the Azure Dragon Master sighed.

He had never seen a young man with such terrifying strength and cunning.

In comparison, although Xiao Chen was outstanding, he was far from enough.

"Ancestor, I must become stronger, marry Mingyue, and become the imperial son-in-law of the Panwu Divine Dynasty. Otherwise, I simply can't deal with Jun Xiaoyao," Xiao Chen gritted his teeth secretly.

He wasn't stupid.

He had envisioned a possible path to success for himself.

"In that case, there's only one last resort," the Azure Dragon Master sighed.

"Ancestor, please speak! As long as there's a glimmer of hope, this小子(lad) will not give up!" Xiao Chen's eyes lit up as he said eagerly.

"Do you know where this venerable one's Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art came from?" the Azure Dragon Master suddenly asked.

"Please enlighten me, Ancestor," Xiao Chen said.

"This venerable one's cultivation technique was obtained by accidentally entering an ancient nest secret realm. And within that ancient nest, it's very likely that an ancient monstrosity of the Ancestral Dragon Nest is sealed," the Azure Dragon Master said.

"Ancestral Dragon Nest, ancient monstrosity?" Xiao Chen showed a look of astonishment.

Indeed, some prodigies, in their respective eras, for various reasons, self-sealed themselves in immortal sources or divine sources, waiting for a certain era in the future, when they had the opportunity to prove their Dao, to re-enter the world.

Such prodigies were called ancient monstrosities. Each one was terrifying to the extreme and could sweep through their contemporary era.

Those who had self-sealed for a few epochs were still somewhat manageable; the gap with contemporary prodigies wasn't too large.

But if it was an ancient monstrosity that had self-sealed for dozens, or even hundreds of epochs or more, then that was terrifying, simply beyond common sense.

"That ancient nest is extremely hidden. Even the Ancestral Dragon Nest probably doesn't know about it," the Azure Dragon Master said.

"Then Ancestor, the opportunity you mentioned is..." Xiao Chen said.

"The ancient monstrosity self-sealed in that ancient nest should have an extremely astonishing origin and status. Within it, you might be able to find the supreme blood of the Azure Dragon lineage."

"With that supreme blood, your Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art still has a chance of reaching great completion," the Azure Dragon Master explained.

"Alright, I'll go to that ancient nest later." Xiao Chen clenched his fists, extremely excited. frёeωebɳovel.com

"Of course, you must be careful. If you awaken that ancient monstrosity, the entire Immortal Domain will probably be shaken."

"Among the younger generation of the Immortal Domain, there might be no one who can defeat that ancient monstrosity," the Azure Dragon Master's tone was slightly solemn.

The emergence of an ancient monstrosity was no small matter.

It was very likely to suffocate contemporary prodigies, with no one able to contend with it.

But at this moment, Xiao Chen didn't hear the warning.

He now only wanted to obtain the supreme blood of the Azure Dragon lineage, make himself stronger, and then go to the Panwu Divine Dynasty to snatch the bride.

As for the consequences of awakening the ancient monstrosity, what did it have to do with him?
