Xiao Chen, The Lead Character Of The Ancient Kingdom Of Phoenix, Submits

Inside a bedchambers in the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix…

The king of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix was lying on his bed, surrounded by a group of alchemists and royal physicians.

However, none of them could do anything about the king's illness.

Several years ago, when the king of the Kingdom of Phoenix was exploring a mystic realm with the king of the Kingdom of Dragon, he was injured by a demonic beast of the far ancient species that was on par with the saints, the Nine Demons Snake Demon.

Not even saints could resist the venom of the Nine Demons Snake Demon.

Not to mention, the king of the Kingdom of Phoenix was a quasi-saint.

"Sigh, what should we do now? Not only did the princess not manage to get her hands on the Immortality Herb when she went to the Jun family, but she even got humiliated."

"What else can we do? We can't possibly go and cause trouble for the Jun family. Wouldn't that be courting death?"

The alchemists, royal physicians, and ministers of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix all shook their heads and sighed.

They couldn't afford to offend the Clan of the Ancients.

Thus, the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix had no intention of settling the score even after hearing that Bai Yu'er had been humiliated and forced to kneel.

The king of the Kingdom of Phoenix, who was lying on his bed, began to cough with a defeated expression.

At that moment, a guard ran in from outside the door and said in a hurry, "Your Majesty, a distinguished guest has arrived at the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix. He wishes to meet you!"

One of the ministers heard him and immediately flung his sleeve. He shouted angrily, "Are you blind? Didn't you see the state of His Majesty's body? You still want to bother His Majesty!"

Just as the minister finished speaking, a woman's delicate voice was heard from outside the hall.

"I don't think the king of the Kingdom of Phoenix is beyond cure. If that's the case, why can't I see him?"

"Are you looking for death? Who is it?!" The minister was furious.

"How dare you yell at my young lady!"

An old man appeared. With a flick of his sleeve, he unleashed the majestic power of a demi-saint.

Pfft!

The minister spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backward!

Within the main hall, everyone from the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix was left standing with their legs trembling in fear.

It was the aura of a demi-saint!

Even the most powerful king of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix was only a demi-saint!

Everyone looked over with trembling eyes.

An old woman in hemp clothes walked in with an indifferent expression.

Behind him was a beautiful woman dressed in palace attire.

Her golden hair was draped over her shoulders, making her look very attractive.

They were Jun Linglong and Grandma Hua.

"It's the noble lady of the Jun family…" Some ministers were shocked.

Jun Linglong was quite famous in the outside world, so they recognized her at first glance.

The minister who berated him earlier was now bleeding from the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with fear as he collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.

"Ahem… I didn't expect the noble lady of the Jun family to come. Are you here to condemn me?"

The king struggled to get up from his bed, looking very tired.

Some time ago, news of Bai Yu'er offending the divine child of the Jun family and kneeling outside his bedchambers spread.

Now, the Jun family was here.

If they weren't here to interrogate him, then what were they here for?

Everyone from the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix in the main hall was left trembling with fear.

If the Jun family wanted to eradicate the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix, they wouldn't have to put in so much effort.

The king had resigned himself to his fate, so he remained composed.

Jun Linglong covered her mouth with her hand and said with a faint smile, "Is the divine child the kind of devil who would easily wipe out a family? You should thank the divine child for his benevolence."

"Huh?" The king and the others were all confused.

Was the Jun family not here to interrogate him?

Jun Linglong took a step forward and swiped at the void ring.

The violet light surged and the fragrance of herbs filled the air. A herb that looked like a Qilin appeared before everyone's eyes.

"That's… the Immortality Herb!"

Everyone from the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix had their eyes wide open, unable to breathe.

Even the king of the Kingdom of Phoenix looked rather shocked.

The birth of every stalk of the Immortality Herb would shock the entire Huangtian Mystic Realm.

Now, Jun Linglong took out a stalk of the Immortality Herb so easily that it shocked them like a country bumpkin seeing a mountain of gold.

Grandma Hua, who was watching the performance of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix from the sidelines, couldn't help but look at them with disdain.

"King of the Kingdom of Phoenix, I'll give you two options right now. Submit to the divine child and you'll receive the Immortality Herb."

"If you don't agree, then you're on your own," Jun Linglong said faintly.

She behaved humbly before Jun Xiaoyao.

Now that she was facing an outsider, however, she regained the demeanor of a noble lady of the Jun family.

"This…" The expressions of the ministers of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix changed.

They understood what Jun Linglong meant.

He was submitting to the divine child of the Jun family, not the Jun family.

The difference was huge.

The Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix had no problem submitting to the Jun family of the Ancients.

After all, there were plenty of top-notch orthodoxies serving the Jun family.

However, if he were to submit to Jun Xiaoyao alone…

For a top-notch orthodoxy, that would be rather disgraceful.

"You don't want to? Do you know what an honor it is to be able to serve the divine child?" Jun Linglong raised her eyebrows with a slightly cold expression.

A hint of struggle flashed across the king's eyes. Eventually, he sighed and said, "I agree. Please thank the divine child of the Jun family on my behalf. I just hope that he won't make things difficult for Yu'er."

At this point, did the king have any other choice?

"Don't worry. The divine child only punished Bai Yu'er a little. He won't do anything to her," Jun Linglong said faintly.

She handed the Immortality Herb of the Qilin to the king.

The king took the Immortality Herb with trembling hands.

After all, who would want to die if they could live?

Not to mention the king of a kingdom.

Jun Linglong warned him, "Just work hard and improve your cultivation. Not only can this stalk of Immortality Herb heal your injuries, but it should also help you progress further. That way, you'll be more useful to the divine child."

All the ministers were rendered speechless by Jun Linglong's words.

Was he treating the king of the Kingdom of Phoenix as a tool?

"I understand." The king nodded. He was not dissatisfied at all. Instead, his eyes were filled with excitement.

Beyond the Pseudo-Saint Stage was the Saint Stage.

With the Immortality Herb of the Qilin, he might be able to break through and become a saint.

"Remember, this is a favor bestowed upon you by the divine child. If you dare to harbor any ill intentions…" Jun Linglong's tone was extremely cold.

She had mastered the technique of using the carrot and stick.

"Of course. From now on, Sir Divine Child will be the true master of the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix," the king replied respectfully.

Offending the divine child of the Jun family was tantamount to offending the Jun family.

While the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix was a top-notch force, it was nothing more than a slightly larger ant before the Jun family.

"It's good that you understand." Jun Linglong and Grandma Hua turned around and left.

The Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix had completely submitted to Jun Xiaoyao and become his vassal force.

Jun Xiaoyao would be able to better control the Ancient Kingdom of Phoenix after he trained Bai Yu'er.

Several months passed. Jun Xiaoyao stood up with a faint smile on his face in the Heavenly Emperor Palace.

"It's about time. Bai Yu'er has been kneeling for a year now. It's time to tame her."

Meanwhile, in the Ancient Kingdom of Dragon, a carriage of a dragon abruptly rose into the air and headed towards the Jun family.

The person in the carriage was Xiao Chen, the crown prince of the Ancient Kingdom of Dragon.

"I've mastered that move. It's time to bring Yu'er back."

"There's also the divine child of the Jun family. If I were to challenge him and defeat him, I'm sure his name would shake the entire Huangtian Mystic Realm. The Jun family wouldn't stoop so low as to make things difficult for a junior like me."

Xiao Chen wore a confident smirk on his face.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Xiao Chen barged into the Jun family all by himself, saved a beautiful woman, and trampled on the divine child of the Jun family. His reputation spread far and wide.

Wasn't that what happened to all the lead characters in legendary novels?

Xiao Chen felt his blood boiling at the thought of such a scene. He couldn't wait any longer.
