Lu Qianqian, Li Qingyang, and the others, as the most core disciples of the Eternal Sect, were all very excellent in both aptitude and cultivation. So when fighting Mystic-rank warriors, Jun Changxiao didn’t send them out, feeling it was somewhat overkill.
Facing the even higher Earth-rank, they absolutely had to fight.
The results didn’t disappoint Jun Gousheng.
Li Qingyang and the others fought continuously for over ten battles, with the number deployed determined according to the opponent’s strength. In the end, they all won beautifully, earning him another one million spirit stones.
They even defeated a powerhouse comparable to a Wusheng with a fifty-person formation.
This deeply shocked the planar powerhouses.
Differing by two entire tiers, using merely fifty Yellow-rank fighters to defeat an Earth-rank warrior—this was simply too unreal!
However, when everyone looked at the disciples on stage assuming various stances and felt the sharp aura they released, they instead developed a feeling that “their victory is natural.”
“Sect Master Jun’s disciples are all dragons among men!”
Mo Shangsheng gave extremely high praise, admiration rising in his eyes.
Having outstanding disciples in a sect was normal, but having a group of outstanding disciples was simply too terrifying!
In his eyes, choosing any one of Lu Qianqian, Li Qingyang, and the others would be worth any force pouring all their effort into cultivating.
At that moment, Mo Shangsheng could completely imagine that once these Eternal Sect disciples raised their realm levels in the future, they would absolutely be a group of monsters that made people tremble at the mere mention!
More importantly…
The one cultivating a group of monsters was himself a super monster.
“Terrifying!”
The more Mo Shangsheng thought, the more shocked he became, the more awed he felt.
Jun Changxiao didn’t know he was frantically imagining future scenarios, and only smiled: “Will anyone else come up?”
“…”
The powerhouses from various planes all fell silent.
After over ten battles, they had clearly understood that the Eternal Sect relied on a special formation to use the minimum number of people and lowest cultivation levels to fight high-realm warriors. Going up would just be giving away money.
Only at this moment did the planar warriors truly understand that Jun Changxiao dared to make a losing proposition because he had absolute confidence.
Wanting to win large amounts of spirit stones from his hands… our heads must have been kicked by donkeys.
In the past, being extorted by Jun Changxiao, the planar warriors would feel both pained and angry. But now they lost with genuine conviction, because he didn’t use forceful plundering methods but used lower-level disciples to defeat them fairly and squarely.
This was Gousheng’s brilliance.
Clearly setting up the arena to make up for the deficit of the Nine Stars Moon-Grasping Grand Formation, yet after a round of battles, the warriors who lost had no complaints whatsoever.
Since ancient times, sincerity fails to move hearts—only schemes win people over.
…
“Since no one is taking the stage, the sparring ends here. Everyone disperse.”
After the Mystic-rank and Earth-rank battles, having obtained over two million high-quality spirit stones fairly well made up for previous losses, so Jun Changxiao had the thought of returning to the sect.
Moreover, after so many matches without the disciples losing once, who would be foolish enough to come up and donate money?
“Sect Master Jun.”
Mo Shangsheng cupped his fists: “Farewell!”
“Farewell!”
“Farewell!”
Jun Changxiao returned the salutes one by one.
However, just as he was about to lead the disciples into the Meteor Star Continent stronghold, a soft, charming voice came from behind: “Wait a moment.”
“Swoosh! Swoosh!”
The powerhouses from various planes who were preparing to leave all stopped, their gazes uniformly looking toward the distance. They saw the stunningly beautiful, nobly graceful Rose Queen leading a group of Soul Clan subordinates approaching.
“…”
Jun Changxiao’s facial expression became splendid.
He didn’t turn around, nor did he activate his spiritual sense—from the voice alone, he recognized who it was!
He’d forgotten, he’d forgotten!
That woman was also at the planar battlefield!
Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji, and the other disciples all turned to look.
“Third Senior Brother.”
Li Fei said in a low voice: “That woman’s aura is very strong.”
Su Xiaomo stroked his chin: “She should have extremely high status.”
“Senior Sister.”
Ling Yuanxue transmitted: “She’s so beautiful.”
They say men notice women, but actually women also notice women, especially someone like the Rose Queen with such devastating beauty and noble bearing.
Lu Qianqian remained silent.
Her face and eyes were as cold as frost, as always.
Many disciples were paying attention to the Rose Queen’s appearance and temperament.
Only He Wudi and Ye Xingchen cared about the powerful aura she naturally exuded, concluding that this woman’s strength was formidable!
“Swoosh! Swoosh!”
The powerhouses from various planes, including Mo Shangsheng, all made way.
The Eternal Sect disciples immediately realized this woman must have an extraordinary status at the battlefield!
Indeed!
When she walked over, the various planar bosses all cupped their fists: “Lady Jun.”
Lady Jun?
She actually shared the same surname as the Sect Master.
“Step.”
The Rose Queen stopped before the arena, looking at Jun Changxiao who kept his back to her, her tone slightly resentful: “You came and didn’t notify me?”
Li Qingyang, Su Xiaomo, and the other disciples’ faces showed astonishment.
The imposing aura she’d just displayed had vanished—how did she become so cordial when speaking to the Sect Master?
Mo Shangsheng and the others were also muttering to themselves.
The Rose Queen was Jun Changxiao’s wife, which made her the Sect Master’s Lady. Why hadn’t this group of disciples saluted her?
Strange.
Too strange!
Jun Changxiao still had his back turned, saying flatly: “Why should I notify you?”
“The blade.”
The system said: “I want to cut down this person destined for solitude!”
Jun Changxiao’s cool and distant behavior made Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji, and the others realize the Sect Master and she must have a grudge, so they all became vigilant.
“Whoosh whoosh!”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
In an instant, the atmosphere became solemn.
The Rose Queen swept her eyes over the Eternal Sect disciples in strict formation and said: “Are these all your disciples? They seem to have some misunderstanding about me.”
“Leave.”
Jun Changxiao said flatly.
With that, he strode toward the stronghold.
Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji, and the others immediately followed closely, though they still maintained high vigilance toward that woman.
Mo Shangsheng and the others were muttering to themselves again.
From this couple’s dialogue, their relationship seemed somewhat tense. Could they have argued? Could they be in a cold war?
No wonder the Eternal Sect disciples didn’t salute the Sect Master’s Lady—after all, if the two had a conflict, they would naturally lean more toward the Sect Master.
“Jun Changxiao!”
The Rose Queen said angrily: “How long will you keep running away!”
“…”
Jun Changxiao pretended not to hear and continued walking toward the stronghold.
With so many core disciples present, if they learned he and this woman had a nominal marriage, his lifetime’s reputation would be ruined!
Go!
Leave quickly!
“…”
Watching that guy gradually moving away from her, the Rose Queen bit her lip, her bright eyes filled with resentment.
“Ahem!”
Just then, Mo Shangsheng stepped forward to mediate: “Sect Master Jun, they say quarrels at the head of the bed are settled at the foot. Between husband and wife, there’s no need to keep holding grudges over a small conflict.”
Li Qingyang and the others immediately froze in place, their facial expressions blank with shock.
Quarrels at the head of the bed settled at the foot?
Husband and wife?
“Right.”
A certain planar boss advised: “Sect Master Jun and Lady Jun are husband and wife, destined to spend a lifetime together. You can’t treat each other as enemies over a little friction in daily life.”
“…”
The Eternal Sect disciples looked at Jun Changxiao with splendid expressions.
They weren’t fools—they’d already analyzed from the various powerhouses’ words that this woman and the Sect Master were husband and wife. As for “Lady Jun,” it wasn’t because they shared a surname but was a polite form of address for a man’s spouse!
“Sect Master!”
Su Xiaomo couldn’t hold back and blurted out in shock: “When did you get a wife!”
