Wu Mingyue stood frozen, completely unable to believe it.
Was this still the Jun Xiaoyao who was like a demon?
And at this moment, Jun Xiaoyao's expression was so calm.
Was she really so unimportant to Jun Xiaoyao?
If she wasn't important, why did he save her just now?
All sorts of thoughts churned in Wu Mingyue's mind.
She suddenly felt that perhaps, from the very beginning, she had misunderstood Jun Xiaoyao.
He was actually a kind and upright good person.
It was just hidden by a cold exterior.
Otherwise, why would Jun Xiaoyao save her?
And why, after losing the bet, did he still remove the mark and give her freedom?
At this moment, looking at Jun Xiaoyao's slowly departing back and the hint of indifference on his face,
Wu Mingyue suddenly felt a pang of heartache.
It turned out that she had always misunderstood Jun Xiaoyao.
Jun Xiaoyao had once kindly reminded her that Xiao Chen was using her.
But Wu Mingyue hadn't listened, instead thinking that Jun Xiaoyao was judging a gentleman with the heart of a villain.
Thinking of this, Wu Mingyue could no longer hold back and blurted out, "Master!"
Jun Xiaoyao paused.
And Jun Zhangjian, who was beside him, looked astonished, his jaw almost dropping to the ground.
The dignified Princess of a kingdom, Wu Mingyue, whose name was renowned throughout the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain, would actually voluntarily call someone Master?
This completely overturned Jun Zhangjian's worldview.
Moreover, this was not coercion; Wu Mingyue had called it out voluntarily.
"Hmm? Didn't Divine Child already give you back your freedom?" Jun Xiaoyao frowned.
Wu Mingyue bit her lip, her face flushing slightly with a hint of embarrassment, but she still said, "Before, Mingyue misunderstood Master. Mingyue is willing to truly submit to Master."
After speaking, Wu Mingyue bowed to Jun Xiaoyao.
"Holy crap!" Even Jun Zhangjian couldn't help but let out an expletive.
"You don't need to force yourself like this; I don't lack a servant." Jun Xiaoyao shook his head slightly.
"Master, Mingyue is truly submitting, not because of the bet." Wu Mingyue's expression showed a hint of uneasiness.
Her heart was empty, and only Jun Xiaoyao had left a mark on her.
If Jun Xiaoyao were to abandon her now, wouldn't Wu Mingyue return to that empty state?
She did not wish for this.
"Sigh, so be it. Since you are willing to follow, then so be it. I will find you when I need you." Jun Xiaoyao sighed.
"Yes, Mingyue will be loyal to Master for her entire life, and besides, Master is already considered…" Wu Mingyue's tone was hesitant.
"Considered what?" Jun Xiaoyao asked back.
"Nothing." Wu Mingyue gently shook her head.
She didn't say that Jun Xiaoyao was already considered the consort of the Panwu Divine Dynasty.
"Alright then, let's go back." Jun Xiaoyao stepped onto the Nine-Headed Lion, with Wu Mingyue following closely behind him.
After completely understanding, the more Wu Mingyue looked at Jun Xiaoyao, the more she felt he was like a banished Immortal, exceptionally handsome, leaving Xiao Chen far, far behind.
"I was truly foolish. Why did I dislike such a handsome and Immortal-like Master for the sake of a Xiao Chen back then?" Wu Mingyue secretly cursed herself for being stupid.
However, what she didn't know was that Jun Xiaoyao, with his back to her, had a slight curve on his lips.
"The strategy of letting go to catch, the ancients truly did not deceive me…" Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
This move was naturally a small trick he played.
If he bound her with the bet, Wu Mingyue would certainly not genuinely submit.
It was better to take a step back, directly erase Wu Mingyue's mark, and make her grateful.
Although Jun Xiaoyao couldn't guarantee that Wu Mingyue would 100% continue to submit to him.
But even if she didn't submit, Jun Xiaoyao didn't care.
She was just a chess piece; if she was discarded, then she was discarded.
Behind him, Jun Zhangjian's eyes showed admiration.
His reverence for Jun Xiaoyao was like an endless surging river.
To be able to train the Princess of an Immortal Dynasty to be so obedient, perhaps only Jun Xiaoyao could do it.
This matter also temporarily came to an end.
Jun Xiaoyao, through various means, completely turned Wu Mingyue and Xiao Chen against each other, and also won Wu Mingyue's loyalty.
But Jun Xiaoyao did not relax.
He vaguely felt that the storm had only just begun.
"It's time to return to the Jun Family and properly digest the gains." Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.
He decided to seclude himself in the Jun Family for a period of time this time.
Jun Xiaoyao had a premonition that the grand curtain was about to be drawn, and various Prodigies would appear one after another, as the era of great contention was approaching.
Although Jun Xiaoyao possessed unparalleled talent and was aided by the System,
It was always better to be cautious.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao and the others returned to the Imperial Capital, and then set off with the Jun Family members to return to the Jun Family.
Wu Mingyue, on the other hand, remained in the Panwu Divine Dynasty.
After all, only she, Jun Xiaoyao, and Jun Zhangjian knew about her submission to Jun Xiaoyao.
Xiao Chen, from beginning to end, had no idea that Jun Xiaoyao had used him as a threat to plant a mark on Wu Mingyue.
If Xiao Chen knew, he would probably realize that all of this was Jun Xiaoyao's scheme of discord.
During the return journey, Jun Xiaoyao was also sorting out his next plans.
The first, of course, was to digest the spoils of war.
The second was to find time to visit the Sacred Spirit Academy to see if he could make his Supreme Bone evolve.
Third, in the Lower Realm, there might be clues to the lower volume of the Body Book, and the Nine Great Heavenly Books could not be forgotten.
In addition, there was the Bronze Immortal Palace, one of the seven wonders.
There was still a chance to sign in there.
However, the Bronze Immortal Palace relied heavily on Opportunity; it would not appear until the time was right.
Even with his bronze compass, Jun Xiaoyao couldn't find any trace of it.
After passing through several large teleportation arrays, Jun Xiaoyao and the others returned to the Jun Family in just a few days.
As soon as Jun Xiaoyao returned to the Jun Family, he began his seclusion.
The first thing he had to do was to read the Holy Body Phenomenon insights left by Panwu Great Emperor.
Jun Xiaoyao did not simply copy Panwu Great Emperor's insights, but rather used them as reference.
It wasn't that Jun Xiaoyao was arrogant, but he felt that Panwu Great Emperor's talent probably couldn't compare to his own.
The reason he looked at these insights was simply that Jun Xiaoyao wanted to accelerate the Awakening of his own Holy Body Phenomenon.
During Jun Xiaoyao's seclusion, his deeds continued to spread throughout the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain.
If Jun Xiaoyao's ten-year-old banquet was his first display of talent,
Then suppressing the Supreme Demonic Corpse in the Yuantian Secret Treasure made Jun Xiaoyao's reputation soar.
And at the Panwu Divine Dynasty banquet, Jun Xiaoyao effortlessly suppressed the four great Prodigies alone, which completely established Jun Xiaoyao's position among the younger generation of the Immortal Domain.
Some even said that Jun Xiaoyao was the number one among the younger generation in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain.
Some people agreed with this statement.
But more people disagreed.
Jun Xiaoyao's strength was beyond doubt, but the Immortal Domain was vast and boundless, with countless hidden masters.
Not to mention that the Wang family Young Emperor and the Reincarnation of the Sword Demon from the Ye family, and other top Prodigies, had not yet emerged in the current generation.
Even within the Ancient Royal Family, many Ancient Freaks were still slumbering.
Within the Life Forbidden Zone, there were also young Supremes from the Forbidden Land.
Furthermore, there were Reincarnations of Supremes, Reincarnations of Quasi-Emperors, and so on.
Jun Xiaoyao's strength was indeed unparalleled among his peers, but many people did not agree that he could overshadow countless Prodigies in the Immortal Domain.
Just as subtle undercurrents seemed to be stirring throughout the entire Immortal Domain,
A ripple was stirred within the Jun Family.
The Jun family's first sequence, the person with the double pupils, had returned from an ancient Forbidden Land!
