The woman's voice was gentle, and even when questioning, it sounded pleasant and soft.
But the words she spoke were clearly sharp, aimed directly at Jun Xiaoyao.
One could say that if it were anyone else facing such a question from a Quasi-Immortal, they would definitely be trembling with fear, unable to remain calm.
Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained placid upon hearing her words.
He merely feigned a touch of surprise and asked, "Senior, why do you say that?"
The woman continued to gaze at Jun Xiaoyao; anyone being stared at by those limpid eyes would find their thoughts wandering.
But Jun Xiaoyao was extremely vigilant in his heart.
He knew that any Quasi-Immortal possessed heaven-reaching abilities.
Even the slightest change in breath could not escape a Quasi-Immortal's perception.
Therefore, Jun Xiaoyao's aura was steady, and he even deliberately controlled his heartbeat!
It was evident that Jun Xiaoyao had perfected his acting to the extreme.
If this were in his previous life, Jun Xiaoyao's acting, worthy of an Oscar, would be an insult if he didn't win one!
"Your origin is very strange. Did a Big Shot intentionally help you conceal it?" the woman asked.
Jun Xiaoyao suddenly cupped his hands slightly and said, "My identity as a Quasi-God of War should have been recommended by Senior, correct?"
The woman paused, then nodded slightly.
"Since that's the case, if Senior believes that this Junior is a spy sent by the Immortal Realm, then this Junior shall leave.
The so-called Quasi-God of War identity is not worth keeping!"
Jun Xiaoyao flicked his sleeve, his Face showing a timely hint of anger, truly a vivid performance.
Jun Xiaoyao knew in his heart that at this moment, calmness was acceptable.
But if he was too calm, it would also arouse suspicion.
Maintaining composure while showing a suitable amount of youthful spirit was the most appropriate approach.
From this, it was evident that Jun Xiaoyao's wisdom was akin to a Prodigy's, as he thoroughly understood the human Heart-Nature!
No matter how strong a Quasi-Immortal was, she was still a living being and would have emotions.
This was the flaw!
A hint of surprise also appeared in the woman's brows.
To be honest, how long had it been since someone spoke to her with such an attitude?
"Do you know who I am?" The woman's gaze was profound.
"An ancient supreme being of the Academy," Jun Xiaoyao replied.
"My name is Luo Xiangling, but the world is more accustomed to calling me King Luo," said the woman named Luo Xiangling.
Jun Xiaoyao sighed inwardly.
As expected, she was a Quasi-Immortal like King Peacock.
In other words, a Quasi-Emperor.
However, for Jun Xiaoyao, who had even met a Mythical Emperor, a Quasi-Emperor didn't seem like much anymore.
"King Luo Senior, if you suspect this Junior, there's no need to summon this Junior with the Quasi-God of War identity."
Jun Xiaoyao's attitude was neither servile nor overbearing.
He neither appeared overly arrogant nor overly humble.
Luo Xiangling looked at Jun Xiaoyao, her expression becoming less stern than before.
"I merely tested you earlier by saying you were from the Immortal Realm. Now it seems I was indeed not mistaken.
Regardless of your strength, Heart-Nature, or talent, you possess exceptional qualities and are worthy of the Quasi-God of War identity."
Luo Xiangling's tone softened.
In fact, she had already scanned Jun Xiaoyao.
Aside from his slightly mysterious origin, there were no other issues.
Jun Xiaoyao also possessed the dark matter aura unique to the foreign land, and it was very dense, definitely not something an Immortal Realm being could easily imitate.
Jun Xiaoyao sighed inwardly, this King Luo indeed had some tricks up her sleeve.
If it were someone with an unstable Heart-Nature, they might have truly exposed themselves after being suppressed by Luo Xiangling just now.
Luo Xiangling continued, "The only thing that puzzles me is that I cannot investigate your past and Karma, but I can feel that there indeed seems to be an Immortal existence behind you."
Upon hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao secretly sneered.
How could he come to War God Academy without any preparations?
Before coming, Jun Xiaoyao had used the Sky-Stealing Sun-Swapping Great Art to link a trace of the Godly Evil Thought's Karma with himself.
This was also to guard against those top-tier foreign land powerhouses prying into him.
Even if other Quasi-Immortals or even Immortals investigated him,
They would only be able to detect that he had Karma with a certain mysterious Immortal.
They would mistakenly believe that the mysterious Immortal was protecting him and shielding his Karma.
Even out of respect for that mysterious Immortal's Face, other powerhouses would give Face and not delve into the matter.
After all, the foreign land was vast, even wider than the Immortal Realm, so there would naturally be some unknown mysterious powerhouses.
It was precisely because Jun Xiaoyao was as cunning as a Prodigy and fully prepared.
That he could calmly deal with everything.
He even dared to deceive a Quasi-Immortal!
"King Luo Senior, you flatter me," Jun Xiaoyao smiled.
This hurdle was temporarily cleared.
Jun Xiaoyao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Life is like a play, all depends on acting.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said, "This Junior is just curious, King Luo Senior and this Junior have never met, so why did you recommend this Junior to become a Quasi-God of War?"
"Is it merely because of the Chaotic Body?"
As Jun Xiaoyao's words fell, he suddenly felt the temperature of the entire residence and courtyard instantly drop to freezing point.
Luo Xiangling's exquisitely flawless jade-like Face was expressionless.
Good heavens, did he hit a sensitive spot?
Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flickered with a dark light.
This King Luo seemed to have an unknown past.
The only clue Jun Xiaoyao had now was that this King Luo seemed sensitive to the term Chaotic Body.
What could be the reason for this?
But Jun Xiaoyao was very intelligent and obviously wouldn't press the matter, cupping his hands slightly and saying, "It was this Junior who was presumptuous."
"It's fine. Since I recommended you to become a Quasi-God of War, then... are you interested in becoming my Disciple?"
Luo Xiangling's words caused Jun Xiaoyao's expression to freeze.
Become her Disciple?
To be honest, Jun Xiaoyao truly hadn't expected it.
After all, those ancient supreme beings of War God Academy generally didn't take Disciples; they were merely the foundation and pillars of the Academy.
They themselves wanted to pursue a Breakthrough to higher Realms, so how could they have the Heart-Nature to teach Disciples?
But to be honest, for Jun Xiaoyao, agreeing would be better.
After all, Luo Xiangling was an ancient supreme being of War God Academy, one of the Giants.
With her backing him, Jun Xiaoyao would be even more uninhibited in his actions.
But Jun Xiaoyao had his own bottom line.
His Dao could only be walked by himself.
Up until now, no one was qualified to be his Master.
"Thank you for your kindness, King Luo Senior, but this Junior must respectfully decline," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Oh?"
Luo Xiangling was truly surprised.
Who was she?
An ancient supreme being of War God Academy, one of the Quasi-Immortal Giants.
One could say that ordinary Academy Disciples couldn't even meet her, let alone become her Disciple.
But Jun Xiaoyao had rejected her.
"One's own path must be walked by oneself, and one's own Dao can only be known by oneself," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"You are the most special man I have ever met." Luo Xiangling's limpid eyes were very profound.
They seemed to possess the unfathomable depth of a Quasi-Immortal, yet also a kind of innocence that didn't belong to a human.
This peculiar temperament caused a dark glint to flash in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes, making him suspicious of Luo Xiangling's identity and origin.
He had another mischievous idea...
No, he had another plan.
"Although I used the Godly Evil Thought to fake a mysterious Immortal, it's ultimately fake.
If I truly had a Quasi-Immortal backing me, it would be even more convenient for me to act in the foreign land.
So the only way is to...
Conquer this King Luo?"
