If it were any other Prodigy who dared to utter such words,
even with Xia Bingyun's excellent upbringing, her beautiful face would turn cold and she would angrily rebuke them.
But the one who spoke these words was the esteemed Jun Family Divine Child.
No matter how much dissatisfaction Xia Bingyun felt, she could only suppress it within her heart.
On the surface, she didn't even dare to show a hint of anger or displeasure, fearing that she might displease Jun Xiaoyao.
"Divine Child, this matter is not something Bingyun alone can decide," Xia Bingyun said, lowering her gaze and showing a slightly wronged expression.
She was already exceptionally beautiful, and at this moment, her slightly wronged, small womanly demeanor made her even more captivating.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly; such petty tricks were useless against him.
"Does Miss Xia feel that Divine Child is too overbearing?"
"How could Bingyun dare to think that?" Xia Bingyun replied.
"What if I said I could help the Xia Family control the entire Myriad Clans Commerce Alliance?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"What?" Xia Bingyun's delicate body trembled suddenly, and her beautiful eyes showed surprise and astonishment.
The Myriad Clans Commerce Alliance is an incredibly vast commercial organization, with various intricate and intertwined interests.
Human Race, Yao Race, Ancient Royal Family, and the rights of various other races are intertwined, making it an absolute mess.
Never has any Giant had the ability to fully control the entire Myriad Clans Commerce Alliance.
Even the immensely wealthy Xia Family is just one of the Giants.
"Don't you find it a bit strange that your sister was just kidnapped by people from the Sin Pit?" Jun Xiaoyao subtly prompted.
Xia Bingyun also nodded; she had been wondering about that before.
Now it seems that someone within the Myriad Clans Commerce Alliance probably disliked the Xia Family or was jealous.
After all, the Xia Family now controlled many trade routes and assets within the Myriad Clans Commerce Alliance, and had even begun to threaten some other Giants.
"With Divine Child's help, it won't be difficult for your Xia Family to control the entire Myriad Clans Commerce Alliance," Jun Xiaoyao said.
He wasn't boasting; he truly possessed this ability.
A hint of excitement also appeared in Xia Bingyun's beautiful eyes.
This had always been their Xia Family's dream.
With Jun Xiaoyao's help, this dream could potentially become a reality.
No…
It definitely *will* become a reality!
"My Xia Family is willing to revere the Divine Child!" Xia Bingyun said with a firm tone.
At this moment, she indeed had the right to say such words on behalf of the Xia Family.
"Good," Jun Xiaoyao said, highly satisfied.
Although his initial target was the Xia Family, he now felt that directly controlling the Myriad Clans Commerce Alliance was the best option.
The Myriad Clans Commerce Alliance would provide a continuous stream of resources to the Jun Emperor Court.
And the Xia Family would be Jun Xiaoyao's pawn in controlling the Myriad Clans Commerce Alliance.
"After I complete the Ultimate Ancient Road, I will arrange for someone to handle this matter. You just wait patiently," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Thank you, Divine Child," Xia Bingyun said, her beautiful eyes sparkling.
She knew that a single word from Jun Xiaoyao could change the fate of the entire Xia Family.
"From now on, we are family; there's no need for such formality," Jun Xiaoyao said, then waved his hand.
Five brilliant Dao Certification Marks floated in the Void Realm.
"This is…" Xia Bingyun was stunned again, somewhat disbelieving.
A full five Dao Certification Marks!
One must know that on the Ultimate Ancient Road, even fusing one or two Dao Certification Marks could make one a Giant Prodigy.
Prodigies who fused five Dao Certification Marks were as rare as Phoenix feathers, extremely few.
"I am never stingy with my own people; take them," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Xia Bingyun took a deep breath, unable to hide her excitement, and accepted them.
Such things could not be bought, even with money.
A look of determination suddenly appeared in Xia Bingyun's beautiful eyes as she said, "Please, Young Master, plant a mark of enslavement on Bingyun."
Since Jun Xiaoyao was so generous, she naturally had to return the favor.
And loyalty was the best gift.
Jun Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow, a smile on his lips.
He liked dealing with smart people.
Xia Bingyun was undoubtedly extremely intelligent; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to manage such a large merchant family.
"There's no need for that. I believe you are a smart woman, and you wouldn't do something like betrayal," Jun Xiaoyao said, shaking his head faintly.
He wasn't so weak as to be unable to control even a woman.
The more Jun Xiaoyao acted this way, the more reverence Xia Bingyun felt in her heart.
She realized that her thoughts, her schemes, were simply not on the same level compared to Jun Xiaoyao's.
Would a god care about a Mortal's petty schemes and calculations?
Absolutely not.
After the matter was settled, the atmosphere relaxed.
Xia Bingyun was also very capable; after confirming that she was now Jun Xiaoyao's person, she immediately began to ponder her next plans.
"By the way, does your Xia Family have the ninetieth heaven breathing soil, rootless water, undying divine fire, and Wind of the Grand Void?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
Xia Bingyun replied, "These four items are all extremely rare. My Xia Family doesn't have them, but Young Master is quite lucky; we don't have them, but someone else does."
"Indeed, is it Feng Xiaotian?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"Feng Xiaotian comes from the Wind Clan, so the Wind Clan should possess the Wind of the Grand Void. The Stone Clan possesses the ninetieth heaven breathing soil, the Rain Clan possesses the rootless water, and the Flame Clan possesses the undying divine fire," Xia Bingyun said.
The Wind Clan, Rain Clan, Stone Clan, and Flame Clan all belong to elemental races.
Their clansmen are naturally close to a certain element and can walk an extreme Dao.
Don't underestimate these elemental races. In ancient times, these races also produced some powerful experts who were famous throughout the Nine Heavens, such as the Water God, Fire God, and so on.
"Things are simpler now; I'll just have them offer them as tribute when the time comes," Jun Xiaoyao said leisurely.
"That's natural. Even to forge a good relationship with Young Master, they would agree," Xia Bingyun said, pursing her lips into a smile.
She was already considering things for Jun Xiaoyao.
"By the way, Young Master, are you collecting these four items because you want to Cultivate the Dao of World Creation?" Xia Bingyun asked, her eyes gleaming.
"You are very smart. So?" Jun Xiaoyao said.
Hearing Jun Xiaoyao's praise, Xia Bingyun's beautiful face revealed an even more charming smile.
"Young Master, there was news circulating earlier that a creation boat seemed to have appeared in the inner region of the Chaotic Star Sea."
"Legend has it that the creation boat was an ancient great expert who imitated the Ark of Salvation from myths. It contains a complete Small World, holding numerous resources, divine weapons, treasures, Undying Medicine, and so on."
"Furthermore, it even contains a complete World Creation Origin, which might be helpful for Young Master's Cultivation," Xia Bingyun said.
This news made Jun Xiaoyao's eyes light up.
He was currently considering Cultivating his Inner Universe.
A complete Small World Creation Origin would undoubtedly be of immense reference and help to him.
Jun Xiaoyao could even refine that Small World Creation Origin to accelerate the evolution process of his Inner Universe.
Then, when the time came, he would obtain the ninetieth heaven breathing soil and other rare heavenly treasures from the four great elemental races.
His Inner Universe would definitely advance further, and his strength would greatly increase.
"By the way, do you know the Origin of the ancient expert who crafted that creation boat?" Jun Xiaoyao inquired.
The more profound the Cultivation of an ancient expert, the more profound the World Creation Origin they left behind, and the more it was worth exploring and studying.
"It seems to be… a great expert from the ancient Supreme Immortal Court," Xia Bingyun said.
"Supreme Immortal Court…"
A look of thought and deep meaning appeared in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
