Just as Jun Xiaoyao was about to make his exit, Emperor Haotian stepped forward.
"Jun Xiaoyao, are you really just going to leave so brazenly?"
Although Emperor Haotian had experienced an unprecedented defeat at Jun Xiaoyao's hands, he was still a figure of some standing and quickly composed himself.
At least for now, it wasn't the time for him to rage impotently.
He absolutely couldn't let Jun Xiaoyao leave so easily.
"Hmm? What do you mean by that?" Yuan Che interjected directly.
Her status in the Immortal Court was special; no one could ignore her will.
"Your Highness, this has nothing to do with you. You might not be aware of the current situation in the Immortal Domain."
"The Jun Family has already posed a threat to my Immortal Court's rule. Protecting Jun Xiaoyao is not a wise decision," Emperor Haotian said.
Since his plan to win over Yuan Che had failed, he decided to drop the pretense.
Seeing this, Yuan Che's beautiful, dreamlike face revealed a cold smile.
Just as she expected.
Whether in her dreams or in reality, Emperor Haotian was always such a hypocritical character.
He would initially feign kindness, but once he realized his plan was hopeless, he would immediately show his true colors.
"What if I insist on protecting Jun Xiaoyao?" Yuan Che took a step forward.
Immediately, a vast Emperor Bloodline surged forth, like mountains, like seas, like abysses, like prisons!
Behind her delicate figure, an extremely blurry silhouette vaguely appeared, as if sitting cross-legged within eternal time and space.
Transcendent, immortal, radiant, boundless!
"W-what is that?!"
"Could that be the Lord of the Ancient Immortal Court?!"
The four directions were shaken!
The eight directions bowed in worship!
Many people even directly knelt down.
That was a wisp of aura belonging to a myth!
They had personally witnessed the legendary supreme expert, the Emperor of the former Ancient Immortal Court!
Jun Xiaoyao remained standing calmly with his hands behind his back, unaffected in the slightest.
Only a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
"Eastern Hua Emperor truly dotes on his daughter, leaving a wisp of True Spirit that can manifest within her Bloodline."
"With this, almost no one can harm Yuan Che."
Jun Xiaoyao couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
Eastern Hua Emperor's fatherly love was truly like a mountain.
Not only did his will traverse countless ages to help Yuan Che find himself, the one who could transfer the power of great karma, but he also left a wisp of True Spirit in Yuan Che's Bloodline to protect her from harm.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Even Emperor Haotian retreated several steps under this pressure.
Furthermore, Yuan Che's aura and pressure seemed to be bending his spine, forcing him to kneel.
"What a joke!" Emperor Haotian roared in his heart.
He was the Ancient Young Emperor of the Immortal Court, a Haotian True Dragon.
He was also an unparalleled Rebirth, privy to all future events.
Being forced to kneel once was more than enough.
Boom!
Emperor Haotian also activated a wisp of his aura, carrying a vast and boundless Dragon might.
Behind him, his Qi and Blood surged, and a magnificent figure seemed to vaguely appear.
"Haotian Dragon Emperor!" Someone else exclaimed.
Haotian Dragon Emperor was a super big shot of the Ancient Immortal Court.
While not on par with the Emperor of the Immortal Court, his status and position were certainly not low.
With this aura, Emperor Haotian managed to withstand Yuan Che's Bloodline pressure.
"Oh, Haotian Dragon Emperor, you actually obtained his Legacy…" Yuan Che also showed a hint of surprise.
Although she had never seen Haotian Dragon Emperor with her own eyes, she knew there was such a supreme expert of the Dragon Clan in the Ancient Immortal Court.
"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. I never said I would do anything to Jun Xiaoyao."
"However, he killed my followers, and he killed Cang Ju of the Cangjie Immortal Lineage, and he killed the Son of Truth and others."
"Furthermore, he seized the Nine Li Diagram from the Chi You Immortal Lineage and the Executioner's Blade of Judgment from the Xingtian Immortal Lineage."
"Even that Saint Body Dharma Body itself should be a treasure of my Immortal Court's Legacy."
"He can leave, but the treasures he obtained in the Forgotten Country must be left behind," Emperor Haotian said coldly.
Jun Xiaoyao had indeed won this round.
But he would absolutely not let Jun Xiaoyao win easily.
Nor would he allow him to take these treasures to strengthen his power.
"You…" Yuan Che was momentarily speechless.
Although her status was noble, she had only just awakened and had no understanding of the Immortal Domain's situation.
And while the Nine Great Immortal Lineages respected her, they wouldn't necessarily obey her every command.
After all, the current Supreme Immortal Court was very different from the Ancient Immortal Court.
"That's right, Jun Xiaoyao, you must leave the Executioner's Blade of Judgment," a strong expert from the Xingtian Immortal Lineage said coldly.
"You also killed Cang Ju of my lineage; how will you compensate?" a strong expert from the Cangjie Immortal Lineage also spoke up.
The people of the Gulan Holy Church also watched coldly.
The Son of Truth had died at Jun Xiaoyao's hands, which infuriated them immensely.
But they didn't dare to directly kill Jun Xiaoyao in front of hundreds of thousands of people.
Not to mention whether they could even kill him.
Even if they did, the Gulan Holy Church would face the Jun Family's furious retaliation.
And it hadn't been long since the Jun Family last launched an Immortal Battle.
The bloody reality was right before their eyes.
"Jun Xiaoyao, you killed the Son of Truth of my church, and you must pay a huge price. Apologize first, and compensation matters can be discussed later," a strong expert from the Gulan Holy Church also stated.
As for the Chi You Immortal Lineage, surprisingly, no one spoke up to demand the Nine Li Diagram.
Because Jun Xiaoyao was originally the chosen successor of the Chi You Demon Emperor.
Listening to these threatening words, Jun Xiaoyao merely smiled.
Those familiar with him knew what that smile meant.
"Holy cow, is this the legendary Jun Family Divine Child's death smile?" Lu Fugui exclaimed in surprise.
"Daring to speak to Master like that, they must have water in their brains," Mo Yanyu scoffed.
What kind of person and what kind of personality was Jun Xiaoyao? Didn't they know already?
Just ask, has Jun Xiaoyao ever suffered a loss?
And who would dare to make him suffer a loss?
"You've gone too far! You said before that if the accompanying individuals entered, any treasures they obtained would belong to them!" Ling Yuan couldn't help but speak up.
"Yuan'er, come here, don't get involved," Grandmother Lan said.
Ling Yuan bit her lip, still standing beside Jun Xiaoyao.
For her now, the entire Wa Emperor Immortal Lineage couldn't compare to a single strand of Jun Xiaoyao's hair.
Jun Xiaoyao was still smiling, even appearing somewhat gentle.
"So, you're not planning to let me leave?" Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Leave the treasures, apologize for the dead, and make compensation," some strong experts from the Immortal Court and the Gulan Holy Church said coldly.
They also knew that exchanging a life for a life was impossible.
Jun Xiaoyao showed no anger, instead turning to look at the Chi You Immortal Lineage.
"And you, do you also want me to hand over the Nine Li Diagram?"
Everyone from the Chi You Immortal Lineage fell silent.
Many people's expressions changed even more.
And Chi Long, Chi Yu, and others had a gleam in their eyes.
It was as if Jun Xiaoyao was their hope.
After all, this was the person chosen by the Chi You Demon Emperor, who might be able to help their Chi You Immortal Lineage escape their current humble situation.
Jun Xiaoyao's eyes also flashed, knowing it was almost time.
He spoke, "Since that's the case, why don't you, the Chi You Immortal Lineage, break away from the Immortal Court and join the Jun Emperor Court?"
Jun Xiaoyao's words stirred up a thousand waves!
