Jun Xiaoyao continued to attack, wielding the Luan Gu Axe imprint, to suppress Xuanyue.
The brilliant axe light tore through the desolate sky; one swing of the axe could easily cleave a Saint to death, and even a Saint King would be cut half to death.
However, it must be said that Xuanyue was very strong; as the leader of the Thirteen Bandits, she had also forged a path of fusing myriad Physiques and Bloodlines.
It seemed to have similarities to a certain Forbidden existence in ancient history.
Furthermore, Xuanyue was also one of the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors, having fused with an emperor consecration seal, which caused her strength to surge.
It could be said that Xuanyue was absolutely one of the strongest among the younger generation on the Ultimate Ancient Road!
In addition, that ghost face mask had always made Jun Xiaoyao very curious.
He decided in his heart that he would first suppress Xuanyue, uncover all the secrets behind her, and then kill her.
The axe light cut through the sky, tearing open Void Realm cracks one after another.
Jun Xiaoyao was like a primordial God from ancient myths who split the heavens and earth, intending to reopen the world!
Under such an offensive, Xuanyue retreated steadily.
But what puzzled some was that Xuanyue did not actively attack, but had been passively defending.
"What on earth is going on?" many Prodigies looked confused.
Zhu Xian Thief's actions were very perplexing.
"Could it be that she saw how handsome Jun Family Divine Child is and couldn't bear to attack?" someone quipped.
"Impossible." Another Prodigy shook his head solemnly.
Zhu Xian Thief's methods were cold and cruel.
Before, she had, in front of all the Prodigies, directly plunged her hand into Jiang Shengyi's chest, absorbing the Innate Dao Embryo power with a secret Divine Ability.
How could such a cruel, inhuman girl be so superficial?
But what everyone didn't expect was that Xuanyue truly couldn't bring herself to attack because of Jun Xiaoyao's face.
It wasn't because Jun Xiaoyao was so handsome, but rather the slight resemblance in his eyes and brows that caused Xuanyue's mind to continuously churn with past memories she didn't want to recall.
"What's wrong with this woman?"
Jun Xiaoyao also sensed that something was amiss.
She seemed to have no desire to attack; instead, she was somewhat hesitant and indecisive.
This was completely unlike the behavior of one of the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors.
Logically, as one of the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors, she should be very willing to deal with him.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao was preparing to use the Forbidden Immortal Fourth Seal to confine the space, Xuanyue suddenly retreated.
"Trying to run now?"
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze was playful, with a cold smile.
He wielded the Luan Gu Axe with one hand and unleashed the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist with the other.
The surging fluctuations threatened to destroy everything in front of them, shattering the space.
Around Xuanyue, however, various lights appeared.
Five-colored divine light, Void Realm fluctuations, dark beams of light, and so on…
This scene astonished all the Prodigies.
"Is that…the power of the Five Elements Dao Bone?"
"And the fluctuations of the Void Emperor Body?"
"That's the ability of the Heavenly Nether Demonic Eye!"
The various lights on Xuanyue's body were all powers of a Physique and precious Bloodline.
Any one of them, taken out individually, would be enough to cultivate a top-tier Prodigy.
Yet, so many innate Divine Abilities were all concentrated on Xuanyue alone.
This path was terrifying to the extreme!
Many Prodigies also suddenly realized that the previous rumors of Zhu Xian Thief eliminating Forbidden existences as easily as eating and drinking were not exaggerated at all!
An ordinary Prodigy would absolutely not be able to withstand Jun Xiaoyao's offensive suppression; even an unexcelled Forbidden Prodigy would be injured.
However, Xuanyue only coughed up a mouthful of blood, which dripped from beneath her mask.
The space around her cracked; those were the fluctuations of the Void Emperor Body.
Jun Xiaoyao had also encountered this Physique before.
Xuanyue's figure seemed to merge into the Void Realm, beginning to rapidly retreat.
"No one I, Divine Child, wants to suppress has ever been able to escape." Jun Xiaoyao stepped with the Kunpeng movement technique, intending to give chase.
However, at this moment, Jiang Shengyi called out: "Xiaoyao, wait!"
"Hmm?" Jun Xiaoyao paused.
Jiang Shengyi must have something to tell him.
At this time, Xuanyue's figure also disappeared into the spatial rift.
Jun Xiaoyao frowned, but quickly relaxed.
Since Xuanyue had fused with the emperor consecration seal and become one of the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors, she would certainly seek him out again in the future.
This was not only Xuanyue's own will but also the effect of the Immortal Domain's will in the dark.
Having gained benefits and fused with the emperor consecration seal, she would definitely have to act.
If she didn't, even the heavens would not tolerate it; it wouldn't be for nothing that she was given a spot among the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors.
So Xuanyue would still come to him eventually; Jun Xiaoyao was not in a hurry.
"Sister Shengyi, what is it?" Jun Xiaoyao came before Jiang Shengyi.
"Luoli…Luoli, she entered the Life and Death Gate!"
Jiang Shengyi's snow-white clothes were stained with blood at this moment, her face still pale, and she looked very weak.
But even now, she was still anxious for Jiang Luoli, fearing that something might truly happen to her.
"What, Luoli entered the Life and Death Gate?" Jun Xiaoyao was also surprised, his brows tightly furrowed.
Although it was his first time on Burial Emperor Star, Jun Xiaoyao had heard of the Life and Death Gate.
This was one of the most famous and dangerous Opportunities on Burial Emperor Star.
Few Prodigies who had entered it throughout history had ever emerged.
Jun Xiaoyao's mind recalled that adorable girl who never seemed to grow taller over ten thousand years.
Given her personality, would she enter the Life and Death Gate?
"She was forced by Greedy Wolf Thief and others. Xiaoyao, hurry and check; if something really happens to Luoli…" Jiang Shengyi's face was filled with anxiety.
If her injuries weren't too severe at the moment, she would definitely go herself.
It was precisely because she was temporarily unable to act that she called out to Jun Xiaoyao, wanting him to go and investigate.
"Sister Shengyi, don't rush. Don't you believe in that girl Luoli?"
Jun Xiaoyao was calmer than Jiang Shengyi.
If Jiang Luoli truly had some accident, Jun Xiaoyao might subtly feel a connection.
At the very least, some unease would emerge.
But now, none had appeared.
This meant that Jiang Luoli, at least for now, was not in a life-or-death crisis.
"I believe, but…" Jiang Shengyi hesitated, then stopped.
"Sister Shengyi, haste makes waste. I will definitely go to the Life and Death Gate later to investigate Luoli's whereabouts. She will be fine." Jun Xiaoyao comforted her.
"Mm, with you, Xiaoyao, I feel relieved." Jiang Shengyi relaxed a little.
She also came to realize that Jiang Luoli was now different from before and should not fall into a deadly situation.
"Heh, no wonder she can make Shengyi think of him constantly. My disciple's taste is indeed good; he is truly an extraordinary Young Master."
At this moment, a slightly illusory slender figure in a plain dress appeared.
Her face was dignified, her features like a painting, her figure full, possessing the mature beauty of a woman.
It was Yu Qingning.
Jun Xiaoyao's eyes narrowed subtly.
Ring Old Auntie?
No, she should be Ring Big Sister.
"Xiaoyao greets Senior. It seems Sister Shengyi also has her own Destiny and Opportunity." Jun Xiaoyao slightly cupped his hands, gentle and refined.
"What a likable little fellow." Yu Qingning smiled.
Initially, Yu Qingning was very curious about the person Jiang Shengyi spoke of day and night.
After all, for a woman as outstanding as Jiang Shengyi, how excellent must the person she thought of day and night be?
Until now, when she saw Jun Xiaoyao.
Peerless looks, plus Heaven-Defying combat power.
In Yu Qingning's era, no one could compare.
Even the younger selves of some ancient Great Emperors couldn't compare to the peerlessly elegant Jun Xiaoyao before her.
To be honest, if Jun Xiaoyao had appeared in Yu Qingning's era, Yu Qingning would definitely have fallen in love with him.
After all, such an outstanding man was rare in the world.
"I almost forgot something, Senior, Sister Shengyi, please wait a moment."
Jun Xiaoyao seemed to have thought of something, turned around, and his gaze fell on the small creature struggling to escape on the ground.
Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward and picked it up.
It was the Godly Silkworm Princess, reverted to her original form.
