Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Breaking All Pretense, Is Wu Mingyue Worthy? The Divine Lord Pan Wu's Apprehension
Watching Xiao Chen's staggering figure disappear, Jun Xiaoyao's eyes grew deep with thought.
He knew that there must be some secret hidden behind Xiao Chen.
With this in mind, Jun Xiaoyao secretly transmitted a message to Jun Zhangjian.
"Zhangjian, follow Xiao Chen secretly. Remember, don't alarm him or let him discover you. Just track and record his movements."
Hearing the transmission, Jun Zhangjian nodded slightly and vanished in a flash.
A smile tugged at Jun Xiaoyao's lips.
It shouldn't be long before Xiao Chen's secrets would be revealed.
However, right now, the most important matter wasn't Xiao Chen, but rather Pan Wu Ling's opportunity.
"This old fox..." Jun Xiaoyao narrowed his eyes as he looked at the Divine Lord Pan Wu.
Clearly, the Divine Lord Pan Wu was trying to force him to publicly acknowledge his position as the son-in-law of the Pan Wu Divine Dynasty.
After that, if Jun Xiaoyao were to do anything unfavorable to the Pan Wu Divine Dynasty, this son-in-law status would become a shackle.
The world would accuse Jun Xiaoyao of being ungrateful.
"Divine Lord Pan Wu is indeed cunning, wanting to sacrifice Wu Mingyue to bind me to the Pan Wu Divine Dynasty, but it won't be that simple."
Jun Xiaoyao's lips curled into a cold smile.
He was naturally free-spirited and refused any constraints. How could he allow himself to be bound to the Pan Wu Divine Dynasty?
Moreover, Wu Mingyue was currently his slave.
How could Jun Xiaoyao possibly marry his own slave?
If he truly wanted Wu Mingyue's body, he could simply use the slave mark. Why go through all this trouble to become a son-in-law?
"Divine Lord Pan Wu, aren't you being too hasty?" Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly.
"Hehe, there's no time like the present. I really hope my daughter can have a good future," Divine Lord Pan Wu smiled.
"A good future?" Jun Xiaoyao tilted his head slightly.
Most likely, Wu Mingyue must hate him to death by now.
Yang Pan, who had emerged from the ruins, heard Divine Lord Pan Wu's words and his face turned extremely ugly.
He wasn't stupid; he knew that Divine Lord Pan Wu would no longer let him become the son-in-law.
"Hmph, in the end, don't you still need this lord's help to find the Three Swords of the Pan Emperor?" Yang Pan's face darkened as he cursed inwardly.
He didn't act rashly, seeming calmer compared to before.
He had no choice - he had been beaten into submission.
Even with the Emperor's Spirit Sword protecting him, though his life wasn't in danger, he had been thoroughly dominated by Jun Xiaoyao.
Before obtaining new opportunities, Yang Pan wouldn't dare to act up again.
"Very well then, let the banquet continue - though now it's a wedding feast," Divine Lord Pan Wu waved his hand.
Wu Mingyue's face turned pale.
Marry Jun Xiaoyao?
Though compared to Yang Pan, Jun Xiaoyao was indeed far superior in every way.
But it was still like jumping from one fire pit into another.
Not to mention, she was currently Jun Xiaoyao's slave.
During their wedding night, if Jun Xiaoyao wanted to play some special master-slave games...
Wu Mingyue dared not think further.
Upon hearing Divine Lord Pan Wu's words, the whole venue erupted in commotion.
The outstanding young ladies from various forces all looked at Wu Mingyue with envy and jealousy.
Jiang Luori seemed lost in thought, her two ponytails drooping dejectedly.
"Surely... it won't happen..." Jiang Shengyi's jade-like hands clenched slightly.
In her eyes, Jun Xiaoyao shouldn't be such a casual person.
With his status, position, and looks, he could have any outstanding young lady he wanted. Why would he favor a princess from a Divine Dynasty?
The more Jiang Shengyi thought about it, the more unsettled she felt.
Then, she suddenly realized that she seemed to be jealous of Wu Mingyue.
Could it be?
As someone who possessed the Innate Dao Body, her heart was supposed to be perfectly balanced and tranquil, neither elated by external matters nor saddened by personal concerns.
Since when had she started experiencing such emotional fluctuations?
Just as the commotion spread throughout the venue.
A light sigh suddenly rang out.
"Divine Lord Pan Wu, wouldn't it be better to turn a blind eye? Must you force me to break all pretense with you?"
Hearing these words, the entire venue fell silent.
Countless incredulous gazes fell upon Jun Xiaoyao.
Jiang Luori and others' faces lit up with renewed vigor as they stared at Jun Xiaoyao.
Divine Lord Pan Wu's expression slightly tensed as he said, "Jun Xiaoyao, what do you mean by these words?"
"What do I mean?" Jun Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Do you think Wu Mingyue is worthy of me?"
These words caused everyone in the Purple Forbidden City to fall silent!
Shocked!
Stunned!
Dumbfounded!
In the Purple Forbidden City of the Pan Wu Divine Dynasty, right in front of Divine Lord Pan Wu, questioning whether Princess Wu Mingyue was worthy?
This was a blatant slap in the face.
Wu Mingyue's lips were nearly bleeding from her bite, her face as white as paper, devoid of any color.
Jun Xiaoyao's words were undoubtedly a humiliation to her.
"Jun Xiaoyao, do you know what you're saying?" Divine Lord Pan Wu's aura erupted, releasing the pressure of a quasi-Supreme being.
Divine Lord Pan Wu was a quasi-Supreme being.
However, he clearly wasn't the strongest in the Pan Wu Divine Dynasty.
For an immortal dynasty, even a Supreme being wasn't the strongest.
But unfortunately, this pressure had no effect on Jun Xiaoyao.
Originally, Jun Xiaoyao had planned to just muddle through this situation.
That way, everyone would be happy, and there would be no need to break pretenses.
But Divine Lord Pan Wu insisted on forcing Jun Xiaoyao to become the son-in-law.
This made Jun Xiaoyao somewhat displeased.
Since Divine Lord Pan Wu wanted to scheme against him.
Then he would have to scheme against Divine Lord Pan Wu in return.
Conveniently, Jun Xiaoyao still had one trump card he hadn't used.
This chess piece, Jun Xiaoyao had originally thought he wouldn't need to use today.
Now it seemed he would have to use it after all.
"I have no interest in being the son-in-law, but I will enter Pan Wu Ling!" Jun Xiaoyao's tone was cold and domineering.
These words stirred up enormous waves.
Countless people in the venue were shocked to their core.
A young genius at the Return to One realm speaking this way to a quasi-Supreme being - it completely refreshed their worldview.
And this was the position of son-in-law to an immortal dynasty, a status countless young geniuses could only dream of, yet Jun Xiaoyao showed clear disdain.
At this moment, many male geniuses felt indignant on Wu Mingyue's behalf.
While the female cultivators let out admiring and fanatical screams.
This was the Jun family's divine son they admired and yearned for in their hearts.
The feeling of a cold and noble young master.
Not some philanderer who would casually fall for anyone.
"Hehe, I knew big brother Xiaoyao wasn't that kind of casual person!" Jiang Luori regained her spirit, her jade-white face showing a silly smile.
Jiang Shengyi also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But thinking about it, of course - Jun Xiaoyao didn't even pay much attention to Jiang Luori, let alone someone like Wu Mingyue.
"Jun Xiaoyao, did you come here today to cause trouble?"
Divine Lord Pan Wu's eyes revealed cold anger.
If it were any other genius, even one from an immortal dynasty, Divine Lord Pan Wu would not hesitate to kill them with one palm strike.
But when it came to Jun Xiaoyao, Divine Lord Pan Wu couldn't bring himself to do it no matter what.
Fear!
Too much fear!
Killing Jun Xiaoyao would mean instantly offending both the Jun family and the Jiang family - two great ancient families.
Even the Pan Wu Divine Dynasty couldn't bear such consequences.
