Chapter 123: Jun Xiaoyao Shocks the World Again, and His Wager with Wu Mingyue

After the Panwu Divine Dynasty's banquet ended, everything that had transpired there spread throughout the Huangtian Immortal Realm. Once again, Jun Xiaoyao became the subject of countless discussions and admiration.

The last time he had caused such a sensation was when he confronted the Supreme Demon Corpse at the Yuantian Sacred Ground. However, this time was even more shocking, as Jun Xiaoyao had humiliated an entire Immortal Dynasty!

Of course, some men felt sorry for Wu Mingyue. Such a beautiful woman had been embarrassed, and the matter of choosing a consort had fallen through. Jun Xiaoyao, who could have become the consort, looked down on Wu Mingyue.

This made many male cultivators angry, wondering how the gap between people could be so vast. The goddess they could only dream of, Jun Xiaoyao disdained and refused.

After the banquet, various forces departed, and Jiang Luori and others left reluctantly. After this incident, Jiang Luori admired and loved Jun Xiaoyao even more. At least he wasn't the type of scoundrel who accepted any woman who came his way.

Jun Xiaoyao was quite helpless - he just didn't want to marry his own slave. How did he suddenly become the ideal man in other women's eyes? These women were really overthinking things.

Afterward, Jun Xiaoyao didn't leave immediately but stayed in the imperial capital for a few days. He stayed because there was still one matter to attend to.

Late at night in the Forbidden City of the imperial palace, all was quiet. A white-robed figure quietly arrived at a side palace - it was Jun Xiaoyao.

At the door, a little maid was dozing off drowsily. It was Xi'er, Wu Mingyue's personal attendant. Her pretty eyes were bleary when she suddenly saw a supremely elegant figure in white approaching under the moonlight, and she became confused.

"Has an immortal descended?" Xi'er mumbled, thinking she was dreaming.

"Is Wu Mingyue inside?" Jun Xiaoyao asked plainly.

"It's... it's the Jun Family's Divine Son!" Xi'er suddenly came to her senses, her eyes widening with excitement and joy. She nodded like a pecking chick, "The princess is inside."

"Good." Jun Xiaoyao pushed the door open and entered.

Xe'er clasped her hands together with an intoxicated expression. "Xe'er actually spoke to the Jun Family's Divine Son! Oh heavens, seeing him up close, he's even more perfect, like an immortal under the moon..."

Inside the hall, Wu Mingyue sat at her dressing table. Her beautiful face showed signs of fatigue as she stared at the bronze mirror, lost in melancholy thoughts.

The recent events had been cruel for her as a woman. Being forced to break ties with Xiao Chen, being publicly scorned by Jun Xiaoyao - she, the imperial princess of a Divine Dynasty, had become a laughingstock.

Any woman would find it hard to bear, even to the point of being suicidal. However, Wu Mingyue was quite strong, as she had something supporting her heart - Xiao Chen. She believed that with his persistence and determination, he would surely rise again.

At this moment, a white-robed figure silently appeared behind her. The bronze mirror reflected a face suffused with divine radiance and unparalleled elegance.

"Jun Xiaoyao!" Wu Mingyue suddenly came to her senses, surprised that Jun Xiaoyao would come to find her.

"What should you call me?" Jun Xiaoyao said.

Wu Mingyue's voice caught slightly, then she almost squeezed two words through her teeth: "Master..."

"Very good, it seems you haven't forgotten your status as a slave." Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly.

Wu Mingyue's delicate hands clenched as she lowered her head slightly, feeling humiliated.

"Didn't you say I wasn't worthy of you? Then why come here?" Wu Mingyue asked coldly.

"Are you... sulking?" Jun Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows.

Why did Wu Mingyue's tone sound like a resentful wife abandoned by her husband?

"Of course not." Wu Mingyue turned her face away. How could she possibly have such emotions?

She was actually relieved that Jun Xiaoyao didn't become the consort. She was just angry about being publicly belittled by him.

"Heh... I apologize for making you suffer, I didn't consider your feelings." Jun Xiaoyao smiled warmly.

Wu Mingyue slightly raised her eyes, surprised. Jun Xiaoyao actually apologized to her? And what was with that warm smile? Why was it so dazzling?

Wu Mingyue's thoughts became confused, and she didn't know what expression to show. Could it be that Jun Xiaoyao came to comfort her?

Just as Wu Mingyue was thinking this, Jun Xiaoyao's smile deepened as he said, "I came to ask how many immortal sources you have. Hand them all over, don't make me take them by force."

Wu Mingyue: "????"

She had been overthinking things.

Jun Xiaoyao hadn't come to comfort her at all, but to rob her of immortal sources.

She had been fooled by his harmless and handsome smile - it was actually a devil's smile!

"Jun Xiaoyao... you!" Wu Mingyue's crystal-clear face flushed red with anger. She was so furious she wanted to bite Jun Xiaoyao!

This person was too hateful!

"What, you won't give them?" Jun Xiaoyao's face immediately darkened.

Just moments ago he had been all smiles, now he was as gloomy as a storm.

"I only have about fifty," Wu Mingyue said, secretly grinding her teeth.

"Hand them over." Jun Xiaoyao said coldly.

Wu Mingyue angrily handed over the fifty-plus immortal sources, glaring at Jun Xiaoyao with her beautiful eyes.

Indeed, she shouldn't have had any illusions about Jun Xiaoyao. Devil, blockhead, emotionally dense!

After getting the immortal sources, Jun Xiaoyao secretly shook his head. It seemed even an Immortal Dynasty princess wasn't as wealthy as he had imagined.

Seeing Wu Mingyue's expressionless face, Jun Xiaoyao thought for a moment and said, "Do you still have illusions about that Xiao Chen?"

Wu Mingyue remained silent, only biting her jade lips.

Jun Xiaoyao laughed, "It seems you still haven't seen Xiao Chen's true face. From the beginning, he just wanted to use you to obtain the consort position and thereby gain Panwu Divine Dynasty's support to oppose me."

"Don't think everyone is like you!" Wu Mingyue said coldly.

On this matter, she firmly believed in Xiao Chen's character.

"Then shall we make a bet?" Jun Xiaoyao said.

"What bet?" Wu Mingyue asked.

"Let's bet on Xiao Chen's character. If his character is truly as you say, then I lose, and I will remove your slave mark." Jun Xiaoyao said.

"Do you mean it?"

Hearing that Jun Xiaoyao would remove her slave mark, Wu Mingyue showed a trace of joy.

Day and night, she had wanted Jun Xiaoyao to remove the slave mark.

"Of course, but if I'm right, then you must willingly submit to this Divine Son!" Jun Xiaoyao waved his sleeve and said calmly.

Hearing this, Wu Mingyue agreed almost without hesitation.

In her view, this was basically Jun Xiaoyao giving her a free chance to remove the slave mark.

"Very well, the bet is set." Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly and turned to leave.

Wu Mingyue's snow-white face showed hope.

Soon, she would be free and no longer bound by Jun Xiaoyao.

Meanwhile, Jun Xiaoyao's lips curled into a smile as he secretly shook his head.

"This naive princess, reality can be very cruel..."

Jun Xiaoyao had noticed earlier the madness and ruthlessness in Xiao Chen's eyes when he left.

A madman could do anything.

This was also a trap Jun Xiaoyao had set for Wu Mingyue.

This Divine Dynasty princess was completely being played in Jun Xiaoyao's palm!
