Chapter 1057 1057 The Trash Young Master
About the Chaotic Demon Sea, Jun Xiaoyao knew a thing or two.
It was located at the border between the Ten Great Territories of the foreign realm and the Unspeakable Land.
As for the specifics, Jun Xiaoyao wasn't entirely clear.
"Do you know the situation in the Chaotic Demon Sea?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"Hehe, First King is joking. The Yixie clan I belong to has its ancestral land right in the Chaotic Demon Sea." Shenle laughed.
"I see."
Jun Xiaoyao understood.
In the Chaotic Demon Sea, foreign races also existed.
He also understood now why Shenle knew so many secrets.
Those closest to the water enjoy the moonlight first.
The Yixie clan was close to the Unspeakable Land, so naturally they could learn many hidden pieces of information.
"Alright then, let's leave this place first." Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Won't you stay a few more days, young master? This little one would love to have a discussion with you." Mengnü'er invited.
"Little sister, you might not get that chance. The lord's time is very precious." Shenle put on a smug expression.
Mengnü'er quietly ground her teeth.
Jun Xiaoyao took it all in.
Mengnü'er was as otherworldly as a celestial fairy.
Shenle was as enchanting as a bewitching demoness.
They truly were completely different styles, no wonder they were secretly competing.
"Thank you for the invitation, Miss Mengnü'er, but I have important matters to attend to, so I'll be taking my leave."
Jun Xiaoyao declined.
"What a shame. But since you were able to stand before our clan's supreme being, the doors of our Farshore lineage will always be open to you." Mengnü'er said sincerely.
However, Shenle cut in: "Will your doors open wide for the lord too?"
Hearing this, even the pure and pristine Mengnü'er's face flushed slightly, feeling a touch of hidden embarrassment and annoyance.
She knew full well what kind of dirty joke Shenle was making.
Seeing Shenle's teasing gaze, she refused to back down and replied, "As long as you don't mind, this little one would naturally be willing to open her doors."
"Miss Meng, farewell." Jun Xiaoyao cupped his hands and left directly.
He had no desire to get entangled with any more women.
Xuanyue followed close behind.
"Farewell." Shenle chuckled and sauntered off.
Watching Shenle's retreating figure, Mengnü'er let out a cold snort. "That woman..."
……
In the void, Jun Xiaoyao, Shenle, and Xuanyue swept through the emptiness.
"You said the black hexagram mark appeared in the Chaotic Demon Sea. Do you know the identity of that world-destroying sovereign?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"Not yet, but with my clan's connections in the Chaotic Demon Sea, as long as I make a trip back, it won't be hard to find out." Shenle said.
"So the day when the Six Kings gather and head to the Unspeakable Land is coming soon, isn't it?" Jun Xiaoyao was thinking through some plans.
"That's right, so will First King accompany me to the Chaotic Demon Sea?" A hint of anticipation flickered in Shenle's eyes.
"Hm? Is there something else you want to say?" Jun Xiaoyao asked lightly.
"What do you mean by that, First King?"
"You want me to come along to the Chaotic Demon Sea, so there must be something else going on, right?" Jun Xiaoyao said.
Shenle's expression stiffened, then she burst out laughing. "I knew my little thoughts couldn't be hidden from First King."
"It's like this. I have a cousin who shares blood with me, and she may be getting married soon."
"It's just that the person she's marrying..."
Shenle paused here, her expression turning a little strange.
"Go on." Jun Xiaoyao was actually getting curious.
Then Shenle gave a brief explanation.
In the Chaotic Demon Sea, multiple imperial clans had once stood tall, their might shaking the entire sea region.
Such as their own Yixie Imperial Clan.
And also the Yamatano Imperial Clan.
The Yamatano Imperial Clan had once been one of the overlords of the Chaotic Demon Sea.
It was said their origins traced back to an existence of unimaginably terrifying power.
But over the past few eras, the Yamatano Imperial Clan had been steadily declining.
Especially during the last great war between the two realms, the Yamatano Imperial Clan had lost many of its top powerhouses.
This caused the clan's strong members to wither away.
To this day, only one Immortal King who had been in seclusion for a long time was barely holding things together.
There were hardly even a few quasi-immortals left.
In earlier times, the Yamatano Imperial Clan had intermarried with the Yixie Imperial Clan.
But in more recent times, the two had grown apart.
The one getting married this time was a distant cousin who shared some bloodline with Shenle.
And her betrothed was none other than the young lord of the Yamatano Imperial Clan.
The controversial part, however, was this.
That young lord of the Yamatano Imperial Clan was born with a crippled constitution and could not cultivate.
No one wanted to marry a good-for-nothing.
"So my cousin doesn't seem very willing to marry that young lord of the Yamatano Imperial Clan." Shenle said.
After hearing all this, Jun Xiaoyao's expression also turned a little strange.
A declining clan.
A useless young lord.
A wedding banquet.
Well now, this had a familiar ring to it.
"Don't tell me that young lord of the Yamatano Imperial Clan is the newly emerged world-destroying sovereign. That would be far too predictable." Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
On the surface, he said, "Since you say the Yamatano Imperial Clan has already fallen into decline, then calling off the marriage shouldn't be a big deal."
"That's true, but first of all, the grandfather of that young lord of the Yamatano Imperial Clan once happened to save my cousin's parents in an accident."
"Secondly, although the Yamatano Imperial Clan is declining, there is another imperial clan on good terms with them, and that clan is absolutely not one to be trifled with."
Shenle pressed her jade hand to her forehead, looking somewhat helpless.
"That imperial clan is..." Jun Xiaoyao said.
"The Zhurong Imperial Clan, or rather, the Zhujiuyin lineage." Shenle said, her tone carrying a hint of gravity.
Clearly, even the Yixie Imperial Clan had no desire to provoke the Zhujiuyin lineage.
"Zhulong..." Jun Xiaoyao murmured.
This was also one of the ancient primordial fiends, and strictly speaking, belonged to the dragon race.
However, the Zhulong lineage was extraordinarily powerful.
Even among the dragon race, they were an absolutely dominant clan.
Legend had it that when this clan opened their eyes, it became day, and when they closed them, it became night.
They were a race born with innate mastery over the mysterious power of time.
One had to know that the power of time was one of the most mysterious and formidable energies in existence.
Other beings needed to cultivate to at least the quasi-emperor level before they could begin to touch even a trace of time power.
Only upon reaching the Great Emperor level could they begin to exert basic control over it.
And to manifest within the river of time required an even more powerful realm, at the very least the Mythical Emperor level.
Yet this clan was born with mastery over the power of time.
Of course, the Zhujiuyin lineage in the foreign realm might not be pure-blooded Zhulong.
But they were surely nothing to underestimate.
"I see. The Zhujiuyin lineage is on good terms with the Yamatano Imperial Clan, so your clan doesn't want to offend the Zhujiuyin lineage either."
Jun Xiaoyao understood now.
"So you want to bring me along to keep the Zhujiuyin lineage in check and make them a little wary." Jun Xiaoyao said.
He was no longer a lone wolf.
As the War God of the War God Academy and the son-in-law of the Tushan Imperial Clan,
both of these forces could be counted as his backing.
Not to mention he now had ties with the Farshore lineage as well.
Jun Xiaoyao's background was already fully on par with those imperial sons and heavenly maidens, and even surpassed them.
Hearing this, Shenle quickly said, "Of course not, how could I dare to trouble the lord."
"In truth, the marriage is no big deal. It's just that my cousin would be slightly wronged, that's all."
Although Shenle genuinely wanted to help her cousin,
if Jun Xiaoyao was unwilling, she would never dream of causing him trouble.
"It's fine. I was already planning to go to the Chaotic Demon Sea to investigate that world-destroying sovereign. Attending a wedding banquet along the way, why not?"
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly, not minding at all.
If anything, he was rather intrigued.
"Thank you, my lord!"
Shenle's face lit up with joy as her slender figure pressed against Jun Xiaoyao, her full curves brushing against his arm.
"Is the young lord of the Yamatano Imperial Clan truly a good-for-nothing, or is there something more to it?"
