Chapter 1033 - 1033 Jun Xiaoyao's Bride Price
Now, with Shenle's appearance, the situation had become even more treacherous.
Three world-ending kings had appeared at the same time.
This was an absolutely rare sight in any previous era.
Although none of them had fully grown into their power yet.
But if they didn't fall, becoming immortal kings in the future was almost a certainty.
Watching Shenle act so intimately toward Jun Xiaoyao, Yun Xiaohei felt a jealous rage with nowhere to vent.
Why were all women so good to Jun Xiaoyao, so eager and forward?
Was it because he wasn't as handsome as Jun Xiaoyao or what?
It seemed that was indeed the case.
"Damn!" Yun Xiaohei couldn't even convince himself.
Compared to Jun Xiaoyao, he really was just trash.
Whether it was looks, strength, or personality, there was simply no comparison.
"First King Hall, Nunu thinks you don't need to make a move against the Fifth King just yet." Shenle said, nestled at Jun Xiaoyao's side.
This scene made Tushan Wanwan, Tushan Chunchu, and the others see sparks.
If Shenle weren't a member of the Yixie clan, and a world-ending king on top of that.
They probably would have already stepped forward to pull her away.
This was their matchmaking event, after all.
"Oh, you came here to plead for him?" Jun Xiaoyao's tone cooled slightly.
Shenle shook her head and said, "Nunu is of course not here for him. His place in Nunu's heart isn't worth even a single strand of First King Hall's hair."
These words made Yun Xiaohei spit blood again.
What the hell, if you want to flatter someone just do it, why drag me into it and make me take the hit?
This was getting stabbed while just lying there.
Yun Xiaohei was truly gutted.
"Then what do you mean?"
"The Six Kings still have their own missions ahead. It's best not to fight among themselves."
"Of course, if First King Hall truly wishes to act, you may do so, and Nunu will naturally stand on First King Hall's side." Shenle said.
Jun Xiaoyao had guessed right — this woman clearly knew something of the inside story.
"What mission?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"This…" Shenle glanced around.
"Very well." Jun Xiaoyao gave a faint nod, understanding that with so many eyes and ears around, it wasn't convenient for Shenle to speak.
"Since you put it that way, I'll give you face — how about sparing his life?"
To Jun Xiaoyao, Yun Xiaohei was someone he could kill at any time.
Sooner or later made no difference to Jun Xiaoyao.
Besides, he was also quite interested in the so-called mission of the Six Kings.
Perhaps he could pry some secret information out of Shenle.
"First King Hall always knows how to read people's hearts." Shenle looked genuinely pleased.
Because Jun Xiaoyao had given her face.
Yun Xiaohei had the urge to spit blood again.
With elders from the Mingzhao Imperial Clan and others watching over him, he hadn't really believed Jun Xiaoyao could do anything to him.
But now Jun Xiaoyao had taken the offered out.
Not only did he give himself a graceful exit, he also managed to charm a girl in the process.
All one could say was that when it came to playing mind games with Jun Xiaoyao, Yun Xiaohei was utterly outclassed.
A little brother among little brothers.
"Still not leaving?"
Jun Xiaoyao glanced at Yun Xiaohei.
Yun Xiaohei looked over at Tushan Wanwan.
But Tushan Wanwan paid him not the slightest bit of attention.
Resentment and jealous fury brewed within Yun Xiaohei.
"A wise man doesn't suffer the loss right in front of him. With your talent, you are destined to become a king — there's no need to act on a moment's anger."
An elder of the Mingzhao Imperial Clan sent a voice transmission to advise him.
Honestly, they were deeply disappointed by Yun Xiaohei's performance.
They had thought he would be a piece on the board capable of standing up to Jun Xiaoyao.
But he had been utterly useless, still just trash in front of Jun Xiaoyao.
This made the elders of the several imperial clans look down on Yun Xiaohei a notch.
But Yun Xiaohei was a world-ending king after all, so they couldn't say too much.
No matter how unwilling he was, Yun Xiaohei could only swallow this humiliation.
He didn't even dare to leave any parting threats, slinking away in defeat, his retreating figure carrying more than a hint of disgrace.
He had arrived full of high spirits.
He left with his tail between his legs.
He had come thinking he was the chosen one, destined to sweep the beauty off her feet.
Who could have known that when he looked back, the clown was himself all along.
After Yun Xiaohei left, the scene finally settled down.
Chi Hongyu was somewhat dazed, at a complete loss, as if still living in a dream.
Jun Xiaoyao paid him no further mind — getting the soul book was enough.
"Hey, woman, shouldn't you keep a little distance?"
Tushan Chunchu had really had enough and called out sharply to Shenle.
"Oh my, the little girl is jealous?" Shenle smiled seductively, sexy and enchanting, with a charm that was captivating and heart-stirring.
Standing alongside the five beauties of Tushan, she held her own without the slightest disadvantage.
"This is a matchmaking event we're hosting, and the gentleman is the one we've chosen." Tushan Chunchu pouted, looking a little aggrieved.
Who exactly was supposed to be the main character of this matchmaking event?
"Alright, at this point, I imagine the dust has settled. I trust no one else wishes to challenge Young Master Xiaoyao?"
Tushan Mingfei spoke up.
Silence fell all around.
Who would still dare to challenge Jun Xiaoyao?
Wasn't that just asking to be humiliated?
"Heh, then allow me to first offer my congratulations, fellow Daoist." The imperial son An Lan was quite tactful, smiling and cupping his hands.
"Congratulations, fellow Daoist." The celestial maiden Pukui also said.
"Congratulations, War God!"
Voices rang out from all directions.
If it had been anyone else trying to claim all five beauties of Tushan for himself, it would absolutely have stirred outrage and drawn the hostility of countless people.
But when it was Jun Xiaoyao, no one felt the slightest dissatisfaction — on the contrary, it seemed only natural.
Some of the women even thought to themselves.
The five beauties of Tushan marrying Jun Xiaoyao was actually them marrying up.
A figure like this, like an immortal descended to earth, might not appear even once in an entire era.
It was only in this age of great contention that such a person would emerge.
"I wonder what betrothal gifts the War God will offer?"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd said this.
The surroundings went quiet at once.
Jun Xiaoyao had originally come to attend the event as a guest — how could he possibly have brought betrothal gifts?
"It's alright, we don't need any. It's already an honor that the gentleman doesn't look down on us." Tushan Wanwan quickly said.
"That's right, that's right." Tushan Chunchu nodded like a little bird pecking at grain.
Chi Hongyu's expression twisted completely.
They had not only fought through three trials with great effort, but also presented betrothal gifts.
Those gifts were impossible to take back now.
And yet, when it came to Jun Xiaoyao, they didn't want any gifts at all — they'd be happy to give more themselves.
This proved a saying true.
If a woman truly loves a man, she won't fixate on betrothal gifts.
Those women who only want an astronomical bride price don't actually care about the man at all — they simply want to sell themselves for a good price.
Facing Jun Xiaoyao, the five beauties of Tushan would gladly give more themselves.
Facing any other man, even with a sky-high betrothal gift, they wouldn't spare a second glance.
"This world…"
Chi Hongyu's dao heart completely collapsed.
His state of mind was in total disarray.
He had thought this time he would come to wash away his past shame, but instead he received humiliation doubled.
And on top of that, he had lost the soul book.
It was an utter and complete defeat.
"This doesn't feel right either — since I've come all the same, the proper gifts should still be given." Jun Xiaoyao said.
He hadn't said betrothal gifts specifically.
Jun Xiaoyao swept his wide sleeve, and five drops of Chaos Essence Blood landed on each of the five beauties respectively.
"Chaos Essence Blood!"
The five beauties' delicate frames shuddered simultaneously.
This was an absolutely rare supreme treasure that anyone who saw it would covet.
If refined, it might not turn one into a Chaos Physique, but at the very least it would bring tremendous benefits!
This was far more precious than any betrothal gift!
Not only the five beauties of Tushan, but everyone else was also astonished by Jun Xiaoyao's generosity.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly.
The treasures within his inner universe were plentiful.
The Heavenly Immortal Tree, the Immortal Source Ancestral Vein, the exotic dragon vein, the Spring of Life, the Primordial Qi of All Things.
There was even the World Tree — even a single leaf from it would be enough to shake the entire world.
But Jun Xiaoyao clearly had no intention of bringing out such treasures. There was simply no need.
Just then, Tushan Mingfei hesitated for a moment, then said haltingly, "I wonder… would Young Friend Xiaoyao be willing to give me a drop of Chaos Essence Blood as well?"
"Senior Mingfei also wants my essence blood?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
