After leaving the Imperial Palace, Jun Xiaoyao returned to the Mysterious Courtyard.
He planned to refine these Immortal Origins and then consult Jun Zhangjian through a Communication Jade Scroll about the whereabouts of Xiao Chen.
He always felt that there was a greater secret behind Xiao Chen.
But Jun Xiaoyao was merely curious.
Now, Xiao Chen posed no threat to him whatsoever.
Once the secret was uncovered, Jun Xiaoyao could easily crush him like an ant.
As Jun Xiaoyao returned to the courtyard, a gentle melody on the piano suddenly began to play.
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze lifted.
He saw atop a pavilion, a woman in gray, unparalleled in grace, sitting and playing the piano.
A crescent moon set her silhouette like a celestial being in a painting.
The gray clothes, though plain, couldn't conceal her exquisite beauty.
It was Ah Jiu.
Jun Xiaoyao stood quietly, listening without interruption.
The melody was not weakened by feminine tenderness but was imbued with a bold spirit.
