Li Xianyao remained expressionless.
"We are merely friends," Li Xianyao said.
"Really?"
Saint Li looked deeply at Li Xianyao.
"Of course," Li Xianyao said.
Saint Li withdrew his gaze and nodded indifferently. "That is good. You should be clear about what that Emperors Son Yun Xiao did to your brother and your mother."
Li Xianyao was silent.
The reason Li Heng ended up that way was because he took the initiative to target Jun Xiaoyao; he was courting death.
As for Yin Yurong, in her eagerness to protect her son, she wanted to vent her anger on her, but she was stopped by Jun Xiaoyao and humiliated.
It could be said that from beginning to end, it was this mother and son who were courting death.
Yet now they blame Jun Xiaoyao for offending them?
Saint Li did not care about Li Xianyao's silence and continued.
"Xianyao, you must remember your mission. You are not only a member of my Li Clan, but also the Young High Priestess of the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion."
"In the future, you are destined to assist the Successor of the Heavenly Emperor and become the Heavenly Empress. This is your destiny, do you understand?"
Although Saint Li's tone was indifferent, it carried an unquestionable authority.
Li Xianyao's jade hands under her sleeves were clenched tightly, her delicate knuckles turning white.
"This daughter understands," Li Xianyao said, lowering her head.
"Mm, it is good that you understand. It was not in vain that I, your father, went to such pains to raise you. You may go now," Saint Li said.
"Yes, this daughter will take her leave."
Li Xianyao bowed and left.
Watching Li Xianyao's receding figure, Saint Li's eyes were profound.
"Xianyao, I hope you do not disappoint your father. Otherwise…"
Saint Li's gaze was calm, devoid of any emotion.
For him, interests were placed above all else; even family affection had to take a backseat.
As for Jun Xiaoyao…
Although Saint Li had not caused trouble for Jun Xiaoyao before, it did not mean that the grudge of Jun Xiaoyao humiliating his woman and rendering his son unable to have children could be overlooked.
"In this great era full of change, even the ultimate forces that claim to stand immortal for eternity might not be without a day of collapse."
"Yun Sheng Imperial Palace…"
Saint Li's eyes were incomparably profound.
He had ambitions in his heart.
His ambition was to let the Ancient Li Clan ascend to another level, and perhaps, not fear ultimate forces like the Yun Sheng Imperial Palace.
If it were in the past, this would naturally be something one would not even dare to think about.
But in this great era of change, anything was possible.
And Li Xianyao was an important chess piece under his hand.
After seeing Saint Li, Li Xianyao walked out.
A man stood not far away.
His features were rugged, his black hair draped loosely, and his entire person appeared heroic and vigorous, with a Qilin mark between his brows with its sharp edge restrained.
It was Li Chengtian.
"Miss Xianyao, have you finished seeing our clan uncle?"
Li Chengtian smiled slightly, his expression composed and proper.
Li Xianyao had no smile on her face, not even a hint of perfunctory courtesy.
"Li Chengtian, you are the most outstanding figure of the Li Clan, yet I did not expect you to be like a gossiping woman."
Hearing this, Li Chengtian's expression changed slightly.
"I just do not want you to be deceived by other men. That Emperors Son Yun Xiao looks like a man who is promiscuous by nature."
"I have heard that he has another lover at the Origin Academy, none other than Xia Guihua."
"A person like this is not worth you wasting your thoughts on, Miss Xianyao," Li Chengtian said, putting on a look of sincere concern.
These words caused a slight change in Li Xianyao's eyes.
She knew that Jun Xiaoyao was definitely not the type to flirt around casually.
Could it be that Xia Guihua…
Li Xianyao shook her head secretly.
Now that her own heart was in such chaos, how could she spare the mind to consider others?
Li Xianyao did not pay any more attention to Li Chengtian and left directly.
Watching Li Xianyao's back, Li Chengtian's eyes darkened slightly.
At this moment, the voice of Grandmaster Motian suddenly rang out in his heart.
"Is this woman that legendary Supreme Dao Body? Truly extraordinary."
"If you can use the Demon Fetus Parasitic Art to plunder her power, your talent and strength will skyrocket to an unimaginable level."
Grandmaster Motian sneered.
Li Chengtian shook his head and said, "I am not that stupid to strike against people within the clan, let alone that she is the daughter of our clan uncle; I cannot touch her."
"However, later on, I can look for other prodigies with special Physiques, or powerful races, to Cultivate the Demon Fetus Parasitic Art."
With the resources and foundation of the Li Clan, finding these gifted Cultivators and living beings was not difficult.
"Also, remember to find items for this Ancestor to restore and repair my Divine Soul."
"Only when we both become stronger can we join forces to suppress that Chaos Body and take back the immortal cauldron," Grandmaster Motian said.
"Rest assured, I am clear on this," Li Chengtian said.
He believed that, going forward, his rate of progress would make even that Chaos Body, Jun Xiaoyao, feel surprised.
Not to mention, Li Chengtian still had ambitions.
If the origin gold ranking were to appear in the future, he would definitely have his name on it!
On the side of the Other Shore Dao Palace, Jun Xiaoyao did not stay for too long.
His business in the Hunxu Star Realm was considered finished, and his gains were very rich.
He was also preparing to set off, leave the Hunxu Star Realm, and return to the Origin Academy.
As for Li Xianyao, Jun Xiaoyao felt that it was better not to disturb her for this period.
Anyone who learned the truth would need some time to digest it.
After learning that Jun Xiaoyao was leaving, Daoist Maiden Su Qian was naturally reluctant.
After all, during the time she spent with Jun Xiaoyao, she had gained a great deal.
In addition, the relationship between the Other Shore Dao Palace and Jun Xiaoyao was also very harmonious.
At the moment of parting, Daoist Maiden Su Qian and the high-level members of the Other Shore Dao Palace saw Jun Xiaoyao off as he boarded the towering ship.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said, "Right, everyone, there is one thing I forgot to tell you."
"We wonder what it is?"
The high-level members of the Other Shore Dao Palace and Daoist Maiden Su Qian all looked at Jun Xiaoyao.
"Imperial Son Futu is dead."
"And from now on, there will not be a single person from the Futu Killing Palace appearing in the Hunxu Star Realm again."
After Jun Xiaoyao finished speaking, he waved his sleeve and boarded the towering ship to leave.
Leaving behind the experts of the Other Shore Dao Palace, who looked at each other in dismay.
"What is going on?"
"Imperial Son Futu is dead; one could assume that Emperors Son Yun Xiao encountered him in the Lihun Mirage Realm and killed him."
"But the people of the Futu Killing Palace are secretive in their movements; how could they all have fallen?"
"However, since it is the words of Emperors Son Yun Xiao, there should be no mistake."
"As expected of an Imperial Son from an ultimate force…"
Everyone from the Other Shore Dao Palace present sighed with emotion.
Daoist Maiden Su Qian's eyes were very bright as she watched the towering ship that Jun Xiaoyao was taking leave.
Her heart was filled with yearning.
To wipe out a force just like that, with only a wave of his sleeve and a light, casual sentence.
This kind of demeanor made Daoist Maiden Su Qian somewhat intoxicated.
Jun Xiaoyao's words were not false.
Although Grandmaster Motian had not completely perished, Imperial Son Futu was considered dead.
As for the Futu Killing Palace, it was naturally Jun Xiaoyao who had secretly ordered the people of Tingxue Tower to resolve it.
Do not forget, Jun Xiaoyao was still the Young Tower Master of Tingxue Tower.
With a single command from him, Tingxue Tower would naturally go all out.
Now, Tingxue Tower could be considered the most prosperous faction in the darkness; dealing with a scattered Futu Killing Palace was naturally not a problem.
Jun Xiaoyao found this power in the darkness quite handy to use.
Jun Xiaoyao even wondered if he was perhaps a bit dark-hearted to begin with.
