Afterward, Celestial Maiden Tianlai departed with a look of unease.
She didn't know what kind of upheaval her actions today would cause for Jun Xiaoyao in the Nine Heavens.
After all, the Nine Heavens were exceptionally transcendent, possessing a natural sense of superiority over the Immortal Realm.
If Jun Xiaoyao were to go this time,
He might just awaken some of the deluded, high-and-mighty Prodigies of the Nine Heavens.
After Celestial Maiden Tianlai left,
Jiang Shengyi said with a worried expression,
"Xiaoyao, I'm still a bit worried about Jiang Luoli."
"Before, when she was in the Jiang Family, she was the apple of everyone's eye, pampered by all."
"But now, she's alone in the Nine Heavens, bearing that kind of grievance by herself. It truly breaks my Heart-Nature."
Jiang Shengyi also doted on Jiang Luoli to the extreme.
She could imagine that, given Jiang Luoli's Heart-Nature, she would rather die than marry that so-called Young Lord of the Divine Mountain.
Presumably, her current situation was also very lonely and aggrieved.
Jun Xiaoyao wrapped his arm around Jiang Shengyi's fragrant shoulder, letting her lean into his embrace.
"Don't worry, Jiang Luoli is, after all, the Legacy holder of an ancient Fairy from the Bixiao lineage, possessing the Yuan Ling Immortal Body."
"They still need Jiang Luoli to obtain the Hunyuan Golden Dou. No matter what, they won't harm her," Jun Xiaoyao comforted.
He knew that the Bixiao lineage should still value Jiang Luoli greatly.
It was just that, in order to contend for the Hunyuan Golden Dou, they insisted on having her marry that Young Lord of the Divine Mountain.
However, as long as Jun Xiaoyao went, all problems would be resolved.
"Mm."
Hearing Jun Xiaoyao's comfort, Jiang Shengyi nodded her fair chin.
Indeed, worry often clouds judgment.
"Alright, I will perfectly handle Jiang Luoli's matter."
"Oh, by the way, can we continue what we were doing just now?"
Jun Xiaoyao teased, easing the atmosphere.
Jiang Shengyi bit her lip, saying nothing, her eyes sparkling, her immortal face flushed like fire.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao was about to kiss her, Jiang Shengyi avoided him, moving out of his embrace.
"Wait... wait until you bring Jiang Luoli back, then we... we'll serve you... together..."
Jiang Shengyi's voice became as faint as a mosquito's buzz towards the end of her sentence.
Her delicate, jade-like cheeks and fair neck were completely flushed.
She turned, her snow-white robes fluttering, and gracefully departed like a white jade butterfly.
Watching Jiang Shengyi's shy retreating figure,
Jun Xiaoyao couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
This woman's charm was indeed top-tier.
Of course, Jun Xiaoyao was not the type of person to long indulge in a gentle embrace.
Perhaps when he truly became unrivaled in the world and could no longer find an opponent,
Only then would he embark on a carefree life with beauties.
But definitely not now.
A few days later, Jiang Shengyi had to return to seclusion.
This time, she had specifically taken time out to attend the grand banquet of the Jun Emperor Court.
This proved that Jun Xiaoyao's position in her Heart-Nature would always be first.
These past few days, nothing particularly special had happened between them.
They simply enjoyed the moonlight, leaning against each other.
They both knew that it wasn't the right time yet.
Jun Xiaoyao needed to give Jiang Shengyi a proper status.
Therefore, the engagement banquet should also be put on the agenda.
Upon her departure, Jiang Shengyi repeatedly exhorted Jun Xiaoyao to be sure to bring Jiang Luoli back safely.
After Jiang Shengyi left,
Jun Xiaoyao also adjusted his mindset.
It was time to get down to business.
He would definitely go to the Nine Heavens.
However, before that, he still had a plan concerning the Jun Emperor Court to implement.
And just as Jun Xiaoyao was about to summon the high-ranking members of the Jun Emperor Court,
An exquisitely beautiful woman, with a face full of resentment and a puffed-up expression, appeared before him.
It was Princess Yuan Che.
Her youthful face, capable of captivating all beings, always gave one an extremely stunning impression, no matter when one looked at it.
As if everything in the world merely served as a backdrop to highlight her.
However, after spending this time with Jiang Shengyi,
He found Yuan Che's charm to be just so-so.
It wasn't that Yuan Che was truly less charming than Jiang Shengyi.
It was just that, in his Heart-Nature, the two women were temporarily incomparable.
Seeing the subtle resentment in Yuan Che's eyes, Jun Xiaoyao smiled indifferently, "Your Highness, why are you looking at Jun like that?"
"You've been with her all this time?"
Jun Xiaoyao nodded.
"Am I inferior to her in any way, or am I not as beautiful as her?" Princess Yuan Che continued to ask.
"Neither," Jun Xiaoyao still shook his head.
"Then why? Is it just because she knew you earlier?" Princess Yuan Che still felt a bit sour.
After all, in that dream-like Ten Mile Peach Forest, Jun Xiaoyao's eyes had always been solely on her.
"Many things are hard to explain, especially matters of the heart; there's no reason for them," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"But you clearly haven't forgotten our agreement."
Yuan Che raised her jade hand, extending her pinky finger.
That white-robed young man who had made a pinky promise with her in the Ten Mile Peach Forest.
Was he truly gone?
"Your Highness, let's first discuss the matter of your great karma," Jun Xiaoyao said, changing the subject.
Yuan Che took a deep breath.
She told herself not to rush.
What was hers would always be hers.
"Alright then, Xiaoyao, can you transfer the great karma to me now?" Yuan Che asked.
"It's not impossible, but I'm not sure if it can be completely eradicated at once. Let's find a blessed land first," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Subsequently, Jun Xiaoyao brought Yuan Che to a blessed land deep within the Jun Family Ancestral Land.
This was his exclusive cultivation retreat, where no one would rashly enter.
"Alright, Your Highness, let's try it step by step," Jun Xiaoyao said.
However, Yuan Che's next action,
Caused even someone with Jun Xiaoyao's extremely calm Heart-Nature to reveal a trace of surprise.
Yuan Che, to his astonishment, began to shed her clothes.
Her delicate body was like a work of art, making one marvel at the wonder of creation.
This was the perfect Physical Body forged by Imperial Bloodline, the descendant of a myth!
"Your Highness, what are you doing?"
Jun Xiaoyao was stunned.
Slowly, he formed a question mark.
Did transferring great karma require this?
Yuan Che's face was flushed.
In truth, her heart was also pounding extremely fast.
On the surface, she feigned calmness and said,
"Doing this facilitates the flow of Qi and Blood, making it easier to transfer the power of the great karma."
Yuan Che was speaking utter nonsense with a straight face.
Jun Xiaoyao couldn't help but feel a vein throb on his forehead.
I'll believe you when pigs fly!
Of course, on the surface, Jun Xiaoyao didn't expose her, merely nodding indifferently and saying,
"Oh, alright, you're a Princess, whatever you say is right."
Jun Xiaoyao didn't mind; after all, he wasn't the one at a disadvantage.
Only a noble Young Master like Jun Xiaoyao, who had seen countless beauties, could remain so composed.
