Chapter 51: The Sovereign's Eternal Submission
In the Southern Sky City, being trampled underfoot in front of all the cultivators.
Whoever it was would be on the verge of collapse, let alone someone as proud and arrogant as Jun Wanjie.
Coupled with Jun Xiaoyao's words, it was simply a blow to the heart; Jun Wanjie felt his Dao heart crumbling inch by inch.
He had endured countless hardships to climb to his current position step by step.
Yet now, with a single kick, he was sent tumbling down by Jun Xiaoyao.
The feeling was unimaginable.
"Jun Xiaoyao, you..." Jun Wanjie trembled all over, his mindset on the brink of explosion.
"That supreme technique on you, the Transcendence Heavenly Art, does have some use for me."
As Jun Xiaoyao spoke, he directly searched Jun Wanjie and retrieved a jade slip branded with the Transcendence Heavenly Art.
Jun Xiaoyao did not lack supreme techniques, but this Transcendence Heavenly Art was related to heavenly tribulations.
In the future, he would have to face the tribulation of the Primordial Sacred Body, and having the Transcendence Heavenly Art as a reference would be somewhat helpful.
Watching Jun Xiaoyao take away the Transcendence Heavenly Art, Jun Wanjie's chest surged with blood, but he could only watch helplessly.
"You’re not convinced, are you? Let me think, if I were to kill you directly, would my family punish me?"
Jun Xiaoyao slightly lowered his gaze, looking indifferently at Jun Wanjie.
His cold words instantly froze the expression of unwillingness and anger on Jun Wanjie's face.
Jun Xiaoyao actually wanted to kill him!
Moreover, upon careful consideration, given Jun Xiaoyao's current status in the Jun family, what would happen if he killed him?
The answer was...
Nothing would happen at all!
Jun Xiaoyao's current identity and status were far beyond what a mere fifth sequence could compare to.
If Jun Xiaoyao killed him, the Jun family would at most give a superficial warning, and there would likely be no substantial punishment.
Thinking of this outcome, Jun Wanjie felt a chill run through his body.
Jun Xiaoyao killing him would incur no punishment.
But his life would be lost for nothing.
It seemed that Jun Xiaoyao noticed a hint of panic in Jun Wanjie's eyes, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
How many people in this world are not afraid of death?
To be honest, if it weren't necessary, Jun Xiaoyao would not want to kill Jun Wanjie.
It wasn't that he was soft-hearted.
Rather, as the divine son of the Jun family and a Zero Sequence, casually killing someone from his own sequence would not reflect well.
At the very least, the clan elders from other branches of the Jun family and other sequences might have opinions about him.
Jun Xiaoyao was not afraid of trouble, but he was also too lazy to deal with such troubles.
However, Jun Xiaoyao would not allow Jun Wanjie to leave freely and leave hidden dangers.
So the only feasible option was...
"Now, I give you two choices: submit to me and bear the slave mark, or..."
"Die!"
Jun Xiaoyao presented Jun Wanjie with a choice.
Jun Wanjie's face turned pale in an instant, his teeth clenched tightly.
He knew that even if he died here today, no one would seek justice for him.
But if he submitted to Jun Xiaoyao, his Dao heart would be completely shattered, and he would only become Jun Xiaoyao's slave in the future.
"My patience is limited; I will only give you three breaths of time..." Jun Xiaoyao frowned.
Jun Wanjie's body trembled violently as he struggled to rise, then knelt down!
He did not want to die!
Because in his heart, there was still an unfulfilled obsession.
"Oh? Unexpected..."
Seeing Jun Wanjie kneeling before him, Jun Xiaoyao was slightly surprised.
He had thought that with Jun Wanjie's character, he would rather die than submit.
"Jun Wanjie is willing... to submit to the young master..."
The difficult words escaped his mouth.
Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly, and within his divine palace, a strand of the soul slave mark formed.
Jun Wanjie's divine palace was in an open state, and the slave mark was directly planted.
With this, Jun Xiaoyao could grasp Jun Wanjie's life and death without worrying about any hidden dangers.
Of course, this kind of slave mark had to be voluntary; otherwise, it would be difficult to forcefully implant it.
"Your choice has surprised this divine son." Jun Xiaoyao looked directly into Jun Wanjie's eyes.
Jun Wanjie's face showed a hint of despair, but he finally sighed and said, "Reporting to the young master, I have a younger sister who was sent to the lower realm when she was young. I swear I will bring her back to the Immortal Domain, so I cannot die..."
Jun Wanjie's words made Jun Xiaoyao raise an eyebrow.
So it was this kind of story.
Separated from his younger sister in childhood, then striving to become stronger to find her.
Jun Xiaoyao knew that the entire world was divided into nine heavens and ten lands.
The nine heavens referred to the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
The Wild Heaven Immortal Domain was one of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domains.
The ten lands referred to the ten vast continents of the lower realm.
Generally speaking, the barriers between the nine heavens and ten lands were difficult to break.
To send someone to the lower realm would require a huge price and also have restrictions based on cultivation level.
No wonder Jun Wanjie was so determined to cultivate and climb to a high position.
It turned out it was to go to the lower realm to find his sister.
"Let's talk about this matter later. If this divine son has the opportunity to go to the lower realm, it wouldn't hurt to bring your sister back as well," Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.
Since Jun Wanjie was already his servant, he posed no threat to him.
Why not give him a sweet promise?
Upon hearing this, Jun Wanjie's previously despondent expression immediately froze, then a hint of excitement appeared.
The previous feelings of unwillingness and resentment melted away in that moment.
Nothing was more important than reuniting with his younger sister.
"Thank you, young master. Previously, Wanjie was blind and overestimated himself!" Jun Wanjie deeply bowed his head to Jun Xiaoyao.
If earlier he had reluctantly submitted due to the pressure of life and death, now it was with genuine sincerity that he submitted to Jun Xiaoyao.
Watching this scene, Jun Zhangjian and Jun Xuehuang exchanged glances, both taking a deep breath.
The most rebellious and domineering figure among the top ten sequences, Jun Wanjie, had been subdued just like that.
"The young master is impressive in both martial prowess and cunning," Jun Linglong also remarked.
Though she possessed the Seven Apertures Linglong Heart, she always felt inadequate in front of Jun Xiaoyao.
An internal conflict within the Jun family was thus resolved.
The fifth sequence, Jun Wanjie, had completely submitted to Jun Xiaoyao.
Along with Jun Zhangjian and Jun Xuehuang.
Three out of the top ten sequences of the Jun family had already fully pledged allegiance to him.
"Grandfather was worried that other sequences would cause me trouble. Perhaps it won't be long before all ten sequences submit to me?" Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
However, he also knew that the truly powerful members of the Jun family were the earlier sequences.
Those sequences were either in closed-door cultivation or out training, and he had yet to meet any of them.
Among them were those with dual pupils and prodigies who had received forbidden inheritances.
They were not comparable to Jun Zhangjian, Jun Wanjie, and the others.
"Let's go back and wait for the opening of the Yuantian Supreme Secret Vault!"
With a wave of his sleeve, Jun Xiaoyao left like an immortal riding the wind, eagerly anticipating the upcoming signing at the secret vault.
