At this moment, the entire Burial Emperor Star fell into dead silence.
Many Prodigies on the Burial Emperor Star had their minds buzzing, their expressions blank.
For many of them, it was the first time they had witnessed the fall of a Supreme Mysterious Venerable-level powerhouse.
Such powerhouses, in their eyes, were like the heavens themselves.
Yet now, they had fallen so easily.
This couldn't help but shock people.
Many gazes directed towards War God Man were filled with astonishment, shock, and admiration.
"Oh my goodness, to kill a Profound Venerable from the Overlord Body Ancestral Hall just like that, truly worthy of being one of the Divine King Eight Divisions!"
"Nonsense, this is someone who followed the White-Robed Divine King; a fierce general has no weak soldiers under him, so he definitely has such courage."
Many Prodigies showed longing in their eyes.
How could they not wish to be like this, fighting to their heart's content, vanquishing all enemies?
Subsequently, War God Man locked his gaze onto Long Yuan.
Long Yuan's hair stood on end, and a bone-chilling coldness shot up his spine.
It was like a prey being stared at by a hunter.
"Fellow Daoist, this old man did not harm anyone," Long Yuan hastily waved his hand.
He had only made one move, and it had been blocked by A Jiu, causing no harm whatsoever.
Seeing this scene, many people were speechless.
Long Yuan, who had previously looked like an aloof expert, high and mighty, was now as timid as a turtle's grandson.
However, everyone could understand; a higher Realm could crush people.
Moreover, even a Profound Venerable of the same level was cut down by War God Man in just a few moves.
It would be strange if Long Yuan wasn't afraid.
War God Man coldly withdrew his gaze, ignoring him.
He reined in his Profound Venerable Qi and descended onto the Burial Emperor Star.
A Jiu also followed closely behind.
War God Man was tall and sturdy, with bronze skin covered in scars.
His gray hair fluttered, and his stern face bore two crisscrossing saber scars, while his beast-like vertical pupils were filled with wildness.
This was a man like a god or a devil.
In terms of temperament, he was no less imposing than Devil King Li Xin, whom Jun Xiaoyao had encountered in the Burial Soil before.
Any person who got close to such a man would feel a suffocating pressure.
But at this moment, facing Jun Xiaoyao, War God Man reined in all his Qi, and a smile, which he had almost never shown, appeared on the corner of his mouth.
This smile was somewhat stiff and unpracticed.
A Jiu, standing nearby, was surprised to see it.
War God Man could actually smile?
It was simply unprecedented.
"War God Man, one of the Divine King Eight Divisions, under the White-Clad Divine King Jun Wuhui, greets Young Lord!"
War God Man actually knelt on one knee directly towards Jun Xiaoyao!
This stunned all the Prodigies from all directions.
One must know that this fierce man who knelt before Jun Xiaoyao was a Supreme Mysterious Venerable!
And he had just killed another Supreme Mysterious Venerable!
Such a powerhouse actually knelt and saluted Jun Xiaoyao, and without hesitation!
"Senior, please rise. I must thank you for your assistance this time," Jun Xiaoyao helped War God Man up with one hand.
Jun Xiaoyao was still very respectful towards these subordinates who followed his father.
"A tiger father has no dog son; Young Lord's demeanor is truly admirable," War God Man said with praise in his tone.
Sweeping through the Ancient Road, completely dominating the Overlord.
He saw Jun Wuhui's demeanor in Jun Xiaoyao.
Perhaps even surpassing him.
However, upon thinking of Jun Wuhui, a shadow flashed across War God Man's eyes.
"War God Man, weren't you following Master at the Border Region of the foreign lands? How is it…?" A Jiu hesitated.
"This matter…" War God Man paused.
That trace of unease in Jun Xiaoyao's heart resurfaced.
However, he also understood that this matter was not suitable to be discussed in public.
"Senior, let's discuss this matter later," Jun Xiaoyao said.
War God Man nodded slightly.
"A Jiu," Jun Xiaoyao looked at A Jiu.
"Young Lord," A Jiu nodded her head slightly.
Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward, extended his hand, and personally wiped away a trace of blood from the corner of A Jiu's lips.
"Young Lord…" A Jiu was also slightly stunned for a moment, not expecting Jun Xiaoyao to make such a gesture.
"Fortunately, Senior War God Man killed Ba Tianjue today, otherwise, I would have been very displeased," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Young Lord has grown up, and now wants to protect A Jiu too," A Jiu's lips curved into a charming smile, peerlessly beautiful.
Although she sought no reward.
Seeing that Jun Xiaoyao also cared for her so much, she still felt a hint of happiness in her heart.
"If I had the strength, I would protect anyone I wanted to protect. Unfortunately, I am not as high in Realm as A Jiu yet," Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly.
"A Jiu believes that with Young Lord's talent, it won't be long before you surpass A Jiu's Realm," A Jiu said.
At this moment, a cough sounded.
"Cough, um… Jun Family Divine Child, shouldn't we talk now?"
Long Yuan also reined in all his Qi and descended onto the Burial Emperor Star.
His expression was a bit awkward, and also helpless.
Jun Xiaoyao was acting as if nothing had happened, chatting with War God Man and A Jiu, leaving him aside.
But the problem was, Long Yao'er was still in Jun Xiaoyao's hands.
"Before, this Divine Child wanted to talk, but you wanted to make a move. Now you want to talk?" Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained unchanged, his tone carrying a hint of sarcasm and playfulness.
Long Yuan's face turned from pale to green, and his heart was filled with hatred.
However, he hated not Jun Xiaoyao, but Ba Tianjue.
If Ba Tianjue hadn't acted so impulsively, perhaps the situation wouldn't have come to this.
Just then, in the Void Realm, golden light blossomed again.
A figure clad in golden divine armor appeared.
"Oh, it's the Ancient Road Enforcer. Why are they only appearing now?" Some Prodigies looked over.
The Supreme Enforcer's face was also slightly awkward.
What had just happened could be described as a battle between Immortals.
He couldn't afford to offend either side.
However, the Enforcer still braced himself and said, "Divine Child, our Enforcer side also hopes that the Divine Child can temporarily spare the Overlord's life."
"After all, both of you are qualified to become 'Seeds'."
"Seeds?" A glimmer flashed in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
"Young Lord, the Enforcer and Guardian lineage have some connection," War God Man said.
Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly.
The Guardian lineage held very high prestige, revered by countless Cultivators in the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
They were a group of selfless powerhouses who had guarded the foreign Border Region for countless epochs.
A portion of the Ancient Road Enforcers were descendants of the Guardian lineage.
Jun Xiaoyao only considered Long Yao'er as a bargaining chip.
"As long as you can agree to this Divine Child's conditions, it's not impossible for me to release Long Yao'er," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Divine Child is indeed magnanimous, with a heart as vast as mountains, rivers, sun, and moon," the Enforcer cupped his hands and praised.
Long Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart; as long as they could talk, it was fine.
"The condition is simple: this Divine Child wants the Heavenly Book that Long Yao'er Cultivates!" Jun Xiaoyao said.
