Zulong's forbidden first generation, Long Aotian, was very famous in the Huangtian Mystic Realm.
However, he had been in seclusion for a long time, so no one knew how powerful he was.
The news of what happened at the Dao-Seeking Mountain had reached the ears of the big shots in Zulong.
Rumble!
The entire Zulong was shaking. The big shots were furious.
Princess Longji's embarrassing defeat was a huge blow to Zulong's reputation.
"That brat from the Jun Family has gone too far!" A Supreme Zulong said coldly.
"We, Zulong, have lost to a brat from the Jun Family one after another. Even the Ancient Divine Mountain in the Lower Worlds was flattened by him," another big shot said coldly.
"Is there no one who can stop him? How is Long Aotian doing?"
"He's doing well. He has already integrated six Dragon Essences. He should be able to come out of seclusion after integrating the seventh."
"Very good. It seems that he will be able to make it in time for the opening of the Immortal Ancient World."
"Maybe we can ask Long Aotian to kill that brat in the Immortal Ancient World."
"That's right. Also, we have to keep a trump card, such as cooperating with the Wanhuang Spirit Mountain."
"You mean … the legendary Dragon Phoenix Body that is impossible to be born?"
Many people in Zulong were communicating with each other through telepathy.
The Dragon Phoenix Body was a body that only existed in legends. It was a terrifying body that combined the blood of the Ancestral Dragon and the True Phoenix.
If such a body was born, it would be an existence that dominated an entire era.
Obviously, in order to deal with Jun Xiaoyao, Zulong had made up his mind to cultivate someone with the Dragon Phoenix Body.
"By the way, is the plan ready to start?"
"You mean the plan to kill the king?"
"That's right."
"There's no rush. We need to be fully prepared," a Supreme Zulong said seriously.
The plan to kill the king, as the name suggested, was a plan to kill the Jun Family.
If the plan was carried out, it would be the beginning of the War of the Immortals. Countless forces would be involved.
Even the Zulong would not dare to launch the kingslaying plan without full preparation.
"Hmph, the Jun Family won't be proud for long!" A Zulong bigwig snorted coldly.
…
On the other side, Jun Xiaoyao and the others had also returned to the Jun residence.
Jun Xiaoyao had just arrived at the Jun Family's mountain gate when he realized that there was a huge crowd of people everywhere.
They were all members of the Jun Family who had come to welcome Jun Xiaoyao.
Obviously, Jun Xiaoyao's reputation in the Jun Family had reached its peak.
Even if Jun Xiaoyao were to become the head of the Jun Family in the future, no one would object.
"Welcome, Lord Son Of God!"
Thousands of members of the Jun Family present cupped their hands towards Jun Xiaoyao.
Their respectful and fanatical attitude left Jun Wushuang, Jun Mulan, and the other sequences speechless.
Their status was also very high. As the top three in the family, they were respected by the Jun Family wherever they went.
However, compared to Jun Xiaoyao, their reputations were nothing at all.
"Sigh, there's no need to compete anymore." Jun Wushuang smiled bitterly.
His original goal was to surpass Jun Lingcang. However, Jun Xiaoyao's performance had made him unable to even think about challenging him.
"I'm impressed. This tender and delicious little guy is too much of a monster." Jun Mulan curled her lips, feeling a little helpless.
Jun Xiaoyao's arrival had caused the Jun Family to be in an uproar.
Jun Xiaoyao's deeds of subduing the ancient freak, trampling on Princess Longji, and obtaining the Pan Emperor's Weapon had made him the idol of the young people of the Jun Family.
Jun Xiaoyao himself preferred peace and quiet. After a short reception, he returned to the Heavenly Emperor Palace.
Some of the elders of the Jun Family had decided to hold a three-day banquet to celebrate Jun Xiaoyao's victory.
It could be said that the Jun Family was celebrating.
After returning to the Heavenly Emperor Palace, Jun Xiaoyao could finally have some peace and quiet.
His mother, Jiang Rou, showed up and asked about Jun Xiaoyao's well-being.
"Xiaoyao, you've been in the Lower Worlds for so long. I was worried sick," Jiang Rou said.
"Mother, don't you know what I can do? What's there to worry about?" Jun Xiaoyao smiled.
"Yes, Mother, Luoli has been protecting Brother Xiaoyao. How could anything happen to him?"
The little girl, Jiang Luoli, also followed along. She patted her little chest with her jade-like hands and said proudly.
Jiang Rou chuckled. Her eyes were full of love.
Jiang Luoli, this adorable girl, was really good at pleasing her.
"What's your name?" Jun Xiaoyao was speechless.
Has she become so familiar with calling her Mother?
"Hey, hey, hey …" Jiang Luoli scratched her head embarrassedly.
Jun Xiaoyao was silent.
Is she trying to get away with being cute?
On the other side, Jiang Shengyi, who looked like a snow lotus, looked at Jiang Luoli, who was playing with Jun Xiaoyao, and heard her call her Mother.
She felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart.
She had decided to let go, but why?
Why did it feel like something was missing?
Jun Xiaoyao noticed Jiang Shengyi's lonely expression from the corner of his eye. He smiled and said, "Sister Shengyi, long time no see."
"Long time no see." Jiang Shengyi nodded and then went to talk to Jiang Rou.
"Hmm?" Jun Xiaoyao's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
Why did it feel like Jiang Shengyi's attitude toward him was a bit cold?
Jiang Shengyi didn't have such a sense of distance with him before.
Jun Xiaoyao shook his head and didn't say anything.
He didn't care. Everyone had their own ideas. If Jiang Shengyi didn't want to talk to him, he wouldn't take the initiative to suck up to her.
At this time, Jun Wanjie cupped his hands solemnly to Jun Xiaoyao.
"Thank you for reuniting me with my sister."
Jun Ying 'er, who was standing beside him, also bowed to Jun Xiaoyao.
If it weren't for Jun Xiaoyao, Jun Wanjie would have to wait a long time to reunite with Jun Ying 'er.
"Don't mention it. This is what I promised you," Jun Xiaoyao said with a smile.
Jun Wanjie and Jun Ying 'er were grateful to Jun Xiaoyao. In their hearts, they were even more determined to follow Jun Xiaoyao.
Then, Jun Zhantian also came.
The family was happy and harmonious. They held a simple family banquet.
After that, Jun Zhantian told Jun Xiaoyao that the family hoped that Jun Xiaoyao would be able to practice martial arts and preach to the younger generation of the Jun family in a few days.
Of course, this was Jun Zhantian's suggestion. It was to completely establish Jun Xiaoyao's reputation in the Jun family.
Now, even Sequence One Jun Lingcang's reputation was not as good as Jun Xiaoyao's.
Jun Xiaoyao was naturally more than happy to do so, and he agreed right away.
Then, after eating and drinking to their heart's content, Jun Zhantian looked for Jun Xiaoyao alone.
He asked him if he had walked his own path.
Jun Xiaoyao didn't hide anything from his grandfather and nodded directly.
"Good … Good. If Wuhui sees it, he will definitely be proud of you," Jun Zhantian said.
Jun Xiaoyao nodded.
When he opened up the Divine Origin, he vaguely felt a powerful aura that came from his bloodline.
That aura was enough to make even a Supreme-Being retreat.
"Could it be Father?" Jun Xiaoyao thought.
Jun Zhantian said to Jun Xiaoyao solemnly, "Xiaoyao, have you ever heard of the saying, 'The Immortal Ancient appears, and the Emperor's Road opens'?"
"The Immortal Ancient appears, and the Emperor's Road opens?" Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself. A glint flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, the Immortal Ancient appears. It refers to the Immortal Ancient World. That is an ancient spiritual land with countless opportunities. There is even a great opportunity to become a Saint!"
Just as Jun Zhantian's voice fell.
The system's voice sounded in Jun Xiaoyao's mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host. A new check-in location has been refreshed. Please check-in at the Immortal Ancient World!"
