Chapter 45: Xiao Chen Heads to the Supreme Secret Vault
Jun Zhangjian's expression was filled with excitement.
He had received the Yuan Tian Supreme Order several years ago but had not found an opportunity to use it until now.
Finally, news of the Yuan Tian Supreme's secret treasure had arrived.
"Oh, the treasure is about to appear?" Jun Xiaoyao's gaze was calm.
He was not particularly surprised; this was within his expectations.
"That's right," Jun Zhangjian nodded. "There are reports of strange phenomena in the South Yuan Dao State, with the aura of a Supreme being permeating the area. If nothing unexpected happens, it must be the Yuan Tian Supreme's secret treasure."
Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly. "Alright, after some preparations, we can set off."
Jun Zhangjian continued, "Son of God, our Jun family should have four outstanding individuals who have received the Yuan Tian Supreme Order."
"Four?" Jun Xiaoyao asked, puzzled.
"You, me, Jun Xuehuang, and..." Jun Zhangjian hesitated for a moment.
"Who?" Jun Xiaoyao asked indifferently.
"Jun Wanjie," Jun Zhangjian exhaled.
He knew that Jun Wanjie and Jun Xiaoyao did not get along well.
"Oh, it's him. Then it's nothing to worry about," Jun Xiaoyao said casually.
With his invincible demeanor and respect among his peers, he did not regard a Jun Wanjie as a threat.
A few days later, news of the Supreme secret treasure's emergence in the South Yuan Dao State began to spread across the three thousand Dao States.
The Supreme secret treasure was the treasure of an unparalleled Supreme being, attracting not only the immortal sects but also various lesser forces.
In an instant, the entire wasteland of the three thousand Dao States was in turmoil.
It was easy to imagine that this would be a grand gathering of talents, a stage for various forces to compete.
...
In Kunzhou, outside a mountain range.
Xiao Chen and Wu Mingyue appeared.
Previously, Xiao Chen had already learned that the Yuan Tian Supreme secret treasure had emerged in the South Yuan Dao State.
The Qinglong Master had also been urging him to obtain the ancient dragon bones within the treasure.
Thus, he was preparing to head to the South Yuan Dao State.
"Mingyue, do you want to come with me to the South Yuan Dao State?" Xiao Chen looked at Wu Mingyue, his gaze gentle and affectionate.
During this time, although he and Wu Mingyue had not had any substantial contact, their relationship had become very harmonious.
This made Xiao Chen believe he was close to winning Wu Mingyue's heart.
Wu Mingyue, with a white veil covering her face, looked at Xiao Chen with her bright autumn-like eyes, also filled with a hint of tenderness.
However, she shook her head slightly and said, "Sorry, Xiao Chen. With the Yuan Tian Supreme secret treasure emerging, various forces will gather. If I appear, it will be easy to expose my identity and get captured."
Wu Mingyue's words caused Xiao Chen's expression to dim slightly.
He had now learned Wu Mingyue's true identity.
She was the eldest princess of the Panwu Divine Dynasty, with an astonishing status.
The reason she had escaped alone was that she did not want to face the matter of selecting a husband.
She did not want her lifelong affairs to be mixed with interests and manipulated by others.
"Mingyue, one day, I will go to the Panwu Divine Dynasty to marry you!"
Xiao Chen, for some reason, felt a surge of heat in his mind and suddenly spoke.
Wu Mingyue's face instantly flushed with two shades of red, like rosy clouds against the snow, stunningly beautiful.
"Xiao Chen, what nonsense are you talking about?" Wu Mingyue rarely showed a hint of shyness.
It is often said that women in love lose their minds.
While Wu Mingyue was not completely infatuated, she had developed feelings for Xiao Chen.
However, she also understood that although Xiao Chen was powerful, their backgrounds did not match.
The Panwu Divine Dynasty would never allow their eldest princess to marry a mere prince of the Qinglong Ancient Kingdom.
"Hehe, don't worry. I, Xiao Chen, keep my word and will never go back on it!" Xiao Chen said straightforwardly, filled with confidence.
That confident and sunny smile made Wu Mingyue feel something special.
Xiao Chen was different from the young talents she had met; he was resolute and genuine.
Afterward, although Xiao Chen was reluctant, he still bid farewell to Wu Mingyue.
"Xiao Chen, although Mingyue cannot openly accompany you, I can help you in secret. If you encounter any danger in the Yuan Tian Supreme secret treasure, Mingyue will come to your aid."
Wu Mingyue thought to herself.
She had decided to stay hidden and follow Xiao Chen.
The reason for this was that she had a vague premonition.
This time, Xiao Chen's journey to the Yuan Tian Supreme secret treasure would likely be fraught with danger.
...
In the headquarters of the Ancestral Dragon Nest, Hongzhou.
Within a mountain range stretching for thousands of miles, where dragon energy converged, a grand voice echoed.
"Bi Chi, that Yuan Tian Supreme was arrogant and domineering, seizing several invaluable ancient dragon bones from our Ancestral Dragon Nest. This time the treasure opens, you must retrieve those dragon bones."
As the voice fell, another woman clad in green armor suddenly revealed herself.
She was beautiful, tall, and her green armor hugged her well-proportioned figure, giving her a heroic appearance, like a female warrior.
However, what drew the most attention was the two green dragon horns protruding from her smooth black hair, indicating that she was not of the human race but an ancient royal family.
This woman was named Long Bi Chi, a dragon maiden of extraordinary talent from the Ancestral Dragon Nest.
In the Ancestral Dragon Nest, the status of a dragon maiden was equivalent to that of a dragon son.
In some respects, Long Bi Chi was even more formidable than Long Haotian.
This was because her lineage had once produced an ancient dragon emperor.
The ancient emperor of the ancient royal family was an unparalleled existence on par with the human emperors.
Thus, in this sense, Long Bi Chi could be considered to have a trace of ancient emperor blood.
Although the ancient emperor bloodline within Long Bi Chi had thinned to the point of being nearly unextracted, she was still a descendant of the ancient dragon emperor, and her talent was undeniable.
"Yes, Bi Chi will obey the ancestor's command and will definitely bring back the ancient dragon bones." Long Bi Chi clasped her fists, exuding a heroic spirit that rivaled that of men.
"By the way, you must be cautious of that Jun family son of God. He might also enter the world to compete when the treasure opens," the grand voice cautioned.
"Is that Jun family son of God really that powerful?" Long Bi Chi frowned slightly.
In recent days, she had heard many stories about the Jun family son of God, to the point where her ears were almost calloused.
"Someone who can easily kill Long Haotian, what do you think?" the voice replied.
"Long Haotian fused with a dragon essence and is indeed not weak, but Bi Chi has already fused with two dragon essences, and they are completely refined. In terms of strength, Long Haotian definitely cannot compare to Bi Chi."
Long Bi Chi raised her snow-white chin slightly, exuding confidence.
They were all one-in-a-million talents; who would yield to whom?
Until she witnessed Jun Xiaoyao's strength, even Jun Zhangjian, a member of her own family, would be somewhat underestimated.
Let alone Long Bi Chi from a rival force.
Often, before truly being defeated, these proud talents would not concede in their hearts.
If one were to fear from the start, it would mean a collapse of their will, rendering further cultivation unnecessary.
"In any case, be careful," the voice advised.
"Understood, Bi Chi takes her leave." Long Bi Chi slightly cupped her hands, not taking the words to heart, and directly left to prepare for her journey.
The grand voice sighed slightly, "Ah, my lineage of the ancient dragon emperor originally had a direct descendant sealed within the divine source, but now has lost all trace, and the complete Azure Sky Transformation Dragon Technique has also been lost."
"If we could find that direct descendant and have her break free from her seal, then our Ancestral Dragon Nest would once again have a presence like Long Aotian."
"At that time, with both the forbidden dragon son and forbidden dragon maiden emerging, what would the Jun family son of God amount to?"
