Chapter 107: Ye Xingyun Gets Hurt, Champion Marquis Appears in Person, Like a Black Giant Beetle?
Several streaks of light descended from flying ancient beasts.
Everyone's gaze turned towards them. At the front was a tall youth with an arrogant look in his eyes.
Upon seeing him, the surrounding cultivators were slightly disappointed.
"It's not the Young Emperor of the Wang family, but Wang Teng's brother, Wang Gang," a talented youth shook his head, somewhat disappointed.
They had hoped to witness the Young Emperor's demeanor.
"Hmph, how could my brother possibly come here to compete with a group of people for the position of consort?" Wang Gang looked around coldly with a sneer.
He also deeply respected Wang Teng.
In his mind, if Wu Mingyue were to actively pursue Wang Teng, perhaps he might accept.
But having Wang Teng come here to compete for the position of consort would be beneath the Young Emperor's dignity.
The entire Northern Wang Family took pride in Wang Teng.
At this moment, more carriages rumbled through the distant sky.
"The Jun Family has finally arrived!"
Many cultivators from the various factions stood up to look, wanting to see if Jun Xiaoyao had appeared.
However, to their disappointment, they didn't see the Nine-Headed Lion's silhouette.
That was Jun Xiaoyao's personal mount.
Jun Zhantian appeared along with Jun Zhangjian and several others.
After confirming that Jun Xiaoyao truly hadn't appeared, various voices began to spread.
Of course, most people still believed that even if Jun Xiaoyao couldn't defeat the Champion Marquis, he definitely wouldn't be afraid.
A small portion believed that Jun Xiaoyao had become timid and didn't dare to come.
"What a bunch of short-sighted fools. How could they possibly measure Young Master's true strength?" Jun Linglong said calmly.
Even they, his closest companions, didn't know Jun Xiaoyao's true power.
How could outsiders possibly understand?
"Don't mind them. I believe Xiaoyao will come," Jun Zhantian said with confidence.
Not long after, the Jiang family arrived.
Jiang Shengyi and Jiang Luoli, these two beauties, one tall and one petite, appeared like they added radiance to heaven and earth.
Countless gazes were drawn to these two graceful figures.
"They say the Divine Dynasty's Princess is a beauty, but the Jiang family's two beauties surpass her," a young talent praised.
"If I could receive the favor of either of these beauties, I could die without regrets!" a male cultivator said dreamily.
"Keep dreaming! You think you're the Jun Family's Divine Son?" others rolled their eyes.
On the Ye family's side, Ye Xingyun's pupils trembled slightly.
That graceful figure he'd been thinking of day and night had appeared.
Though his personality had subtly changed, his feelings remained the same.
Just as Ye Xingyun wanted to go forward and greet her,
Jiang Luoli had already bounced over to the Jun family's side.
"Where's Brother Xiaoyao? Where is he?" Jiang Luoli looked around, searching through the Jun family crowd.
But looking left and right, she couldn't find that figure she missed day and night.
"Xiaoyao hasn't arrived yet," Jun Zhantian said.
"You little one, why so anxious?" Jiang Shengyi walked over, her snow-white clothes unstained, her immortal face beautiful as a dream, making people lose themselves.
"Hmph..." Jiang Luoli puffed up her cheeks and wrinkled her little nose.
She was a bit unhappy.
Because she hadn't seen the person she wanted to see.
And coincidentally, Ye Xingyun chose this moment to approach.
"Luoli, it's been a long time," Ye Xingyun showed a composed and proper smile.
"Who are you?" Jiang Luoli asked irritably, feeling a bit gloomy.
"I'm Ye Xingyun," his face stiffened again.
"Oh, now I remember..." Jiang Luoli nodded her little head.
However, before Ye Xingyun could secretly rejoice, he heard:
"You're that someone who was knocked unconscious by Brother Xiaoyao, right?"
Even with his composed personality, Ye Xingyun nearly coughed up blood.
Jiang Luoli kept saying "Brother Xiaoyao" this and "Brother Xiaoyao" that.
It was like a curse, making Ye Xingyun's heart go crazy, wishing he could just eliminate Jun Xiaoyao.
He forced a stiff smile and turned to leave.
Jiang Luoli didn't care, her heart only had room for Jun Xiaoyao.
"Don't worry, little one. I feel he will definitely come," Jiang Shengyi said with a light laugh to comfort her.
Though she didn't show it, in her heart...
She actually wanted to see Jun Xiaoyao too.
No... she wanted to see him very much.
As time passed, the major immortal forces had mostly all arrived.
However, no one noticed a hooded figure sitting in the most remote corner of the venue.
It was Xiao Chen.
He coldly stared at the Jun family group.
Just as love extends to one's surroundings, so does hate.
"In the future, if I, Xiao Chen, can truly rise to power, I must uproot the Jun family completely!" Xiao Chen secretly vowed.
Just then, numerous excited exclamations arose from the surroundings.
In the distant sky, a figure wrapped in divine light approached, walking through the air.
"It's the Champion Marquis!" many cultivators called out.
No wonder they were so focused - the Champion Marquis was like the eye of the storm.
He was the most likely candidate to be selected as Wu Mingyue's consort.
Plus his arranged battle with Jun Xiaoyao.
All this had pushed the Champion Marquis into the spotlight.
This Champion Marquis was different from the one at the Vermillion Bird Ancient Kingdom.
That one was merely an avatar.
This was his true form.
The real Champion Marquis wore fierce black Tianmang Horn Divine Armor and held the sharp and cold Shangmang Divine Spear.
Within his body, there was also a faint, endless noble sword intent spreading - presumably from the Imperial Life Spirit Sword.
"So this is the Divine Dynasty's Champion Marquis? His aura is truly powerful!"
"Indeed, seeing is believing. Though this Champion Marquis's reputation isn't great, his strength is real!"
Seeing the true Champion Marquis appear, many talented youths from the immortal forces had solemn expressions.
The Champion Marquis's aura was too powerful.
Plus his set of divine equipment obtained through good fortune.
Even top talents from immortal forces had to be wary.
In the corner, when Xiao Chen saw the Champion Marquis, his face instantly frosted over.
"So this scum who wants to obtain Mingyue is indeed not to be underestimated," Xiao Chen's heart filled with cold intent.
In the sky, Yang Pan's gaze fell on the Jun family's location.
"Heh, he really didn't show up. Seems I overestimated Jun Xiaoyao," Yang Pan's face bore a cold smile.
Jun Xiaoyao had snatched his opportunity midway, taken his chance at enlightenment, and destroyed his avatar and sage puppet.
Yang Pan practically wanted to kill Jun Xiaoyao.
Being able to severely damage Jun Xiaoyao's reputation in public was also a form of revenge.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, an angry crisp voice rang out.
"What right do you have to judge Brother Xiaoyao, you ugly black beetle!"
The speaker was Jiang Luoli.
Her words stunned the entire venue.
Then many gazes turned toward the Champion Marquis.
The Champion Marquis's black Tianmang Horn Divine Armor, plus the two black curved horns on his head...
Looking from afar, he really did look somewhat like a black beetle.
Many cultivators covered their mouths with both hands, trying hard to hold back their laughter until their faces turned red.
Yang Pan's expression sank, turning cold and severe.
