Chapter Thirty-Eighth: Suppressing and Killing the Great Elder, Traces of Demons Appear
"Three years have passed. How far has Xiaoyao grown?"
"He said he had fulfilled his original promise."
"Could it be that the man who reached the top of the Heavenly Ranking and shouldered the seals of hundreds of sect leaders is Xiaoyao?"
Jun Ruoxue watched Jun Xiaoyao quietly from behind, and she secretly guessed in her heart.
At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao's back looked really tall in her eyes.
He is no longer the immature boy he was before, but more like a peerless king who is dictatorial in everything.
…
Under Jun Ruoxue's gaze.
Jun Xiaoyao confronts the great elder and others.
What he just said made the great elder furious.
"Boy, who did you just say should die? Who are you talking to? Do you know who owns the Jun family now?"
"I'm giving you the honor of honoring you as the Crown Prince, but you don't want to drink a toast or eat as a penalty!"
"Let me ask you one last time, do you recognize me as the head of your family?"
The great elder said coldly.
"You have no talent or virtue, and you are not worthy of being the head of the Jun family!"
Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.
"Looking for death! How dare you, a good-for-nothing prince, to comment on me like this?"
The great elder was angry and was about to take action to suppress Jun Xiaoyao.
At this time.
A middle-aged man behind him stood up.
This is a newly promoted elder, and he thinks that the time has come to make meritorious deeds.
"Great Elder, how can you kill a chicken with a bull's knife? Let me kill this good-for-nothing prince."
The new elder said.
"Okay, then you should deal with him quickly."
The great elder nodded and allowed the new elder to take action.
When the other elders saw this, they were also jealous because such a good opportunity to perform was snatched away by this new elder.
Just when they were regretting not showing up first.
Something terrible happened.
The newly promoted elder, who was at the third level of the Earth Yuan Realm, was beheaded by a peerless sword light as soon as he came face to face with Jun Xiaoyao.
From beginning to end, no one could see clearly how Jun Xiaoyao acted.
This scene stunned everyone present.
"What happened? A monk at the third level of the Earth Yuan Realm just fell into the hands of this good-for-nothing prince?"
"Is he really the good-for-nothing prince and mediocre person we knew before? Although I didn't see clearly how he struck, the power of the sword just now was simply terrifying. I feel that even someone who is at the ninth level of the Earth Yuan Realm is extremely powerful.
Even the existence can compete with it!"
"What a terrifying sword light, what a powerful Crown Prince. What has he experienced and why has he become so powerful?"
The elders and senior officials were having heated discussions.
I can't believe Jun Xiaoyao's performance to the extreme.
They have all witnessed Jun Xiaoyao's cultivation talent since he was a child. In the past, Jun Xiaoyao, who started practicing since childhood, has always had mediocre talent and was just like an ordinary person.
In terms of cultivation within the family, any younger generation is higher than Jun Xiaoyao in the past. Even a subordinate is higher than Jun Xiaoyao.
It is precisely for this reason that many people in the upper echelons of the family have never taken Jun Xiaoyao, the eldest son, seriously.
After Jun Xiaoyao's father passed away, they even called him a mediocre and useless prince, and never thought that Jun Xiaoyao would be successful in cultivation.
But now, after Jun Xiaoyao returned to the family after being away from home for three years, the talents he displayed really amazed everyone present, and even made the senior officials who once looked down on him feel like they were being slapped in the face.
"There is a bird that has not flown for three years, and then it soars into the sky. There is a bird that doesn't even sing, and then it becomes a hit."
"Xiaoyao, he really did it."
Jun Ruoxue's beautiful eyes were filled with excitement, and she was deeply amazed by Jun Xiaoyao's achievements today.
At this moment, she also confirmed her suspicion.
Her family's Xiaoyao is the man who has risen to the top of the Heavenly Ranking as a young man and holds the seal of the leader of hundreds of sects.
…
"Great Elder, it's your turn next." Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.
Hearing this, the great elder couldn't help but tremble.
After seeing Jun Xiaoyao take action just now, he also had a guess in his mind, that is, the Jun Xiaoyao in front of him was probably the Jun Xiaoyao who topped the list.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to have such terrifying strength at such a young age.
As soon as he thought about this, the great elder's face became even more ugly.
If he is really at the top of the Heavenly Ranking, then even ten of him will not be enough to beat him!
After all, it is widely rumored that Jun Xiaoyao once fought against the five major sect leaders alone, and suppressed them all because they were all at the first level of Tianyuan.
What's more, the great elder himself is only at the peak of the tenth level of Earth Yuan.
"Invincible!"
The great elder had the intention of retreating, and the next moment his expression turned fierce, he immediately grabbed an elder beside him and threw him at Jun Xiaoyao.
Then the whole person began to burst into haste, wanting to escape from this place.
See the situation.
The gentlemen and elders could not help but be stunned.
The Great Elder actually started running away without even fighting Jun Xiaoyao. Is this because he was afraid of Jun Xiaoyao?
For a time, many elders began to speculate.
Could it be that Jun Xiaoyao is the Jun Xiaoyao who topped the list that day? They not only have the same name and surname, but the same person?
At this thought, the elders from all sides couldn't help but breathe quickly.
Under their horrified eyes.
Jun Xiaoyao's action completely proved their suspicions.
"Great Elder, you can't run away. God can't save you even if he comes today!"
Jun Xiaoyao blasted away the elder who was thrown towards him, and then he volleyed a little higher towards the fleeing figure of the great elder.
The peerless sword intent shot straight into the sky, and a golden blade penetrated everything. The great elder's chest was directly penetrated by Jun Xiaoyao's sword.
The elder who was at the peak of the tenth level of Earth Yuan was instantly killed with one blow. This scene shocked the elders present even more.
The rumors are indeed true, Jun Xiaoyao really has the appearance of a young king, no matter the younger generation or the older generation, he has invincible power to push him.
Just when everyone was about to scream.
But something strange happened.
The great elder who was instantly killed by Jun Xiaoyao had an extremely ferocious look on his face as the vitality continued to flow away.
"Jun Xiaoyao, I want you to be buried with me!"
The great elder roared, and a huge black mist erupted from his body. The aura of this black mist seemed not to belong to the human world.
Black mist continued to emerge from the great elder's body, eventually swallowing the great elder's body, and then formed a terrifying energy ball.
The power of this energy ball has reached the peak attack power of the third level of Tianyuan.
"What an amazing attack. How could the Great Elder's counterattack before he died be so powerful?"
"The power of this blow is already at the peak of the spiritual realm. Oh no, all of us are going to die now."
"Damn Great Elder, he actually doesn't even spare his own people, he's so cruel."
"It's over!"
Such a terrifying energy ball plunged everyone present into despair.
Because of the energy fluctuations, it has reached the level of the third level of Tianyuan, which is enough to kill any peak powerhouse of the older generation in the spiritual realm.
In their opinion, even Jun Xiaoyao might not be able to resist it.
After all, Jun Xiaoyao's highest achievement was only at the second level of Tianyuan.
Just when everyone was panicking.
Jun Ruoxue and Su Ling'er both looked at Jun Xiaoyao with trusting expressions.
Both women believe that even if the sky falls, as long as this man is here, nothing will happen.
really.
Under the stunning gazes of the two women.
Jun Xiaoyao once again created a miracle.
"The stars have changed!"
Jun Xiaoyao drew his sword.
He used one of the nine heaven-defying swords he created, and the battles turned and the stars shifted.
This sword seemed to have the power to move the sun, moon and stars, and it literally moved the black ball of light, which probably had the terrifying attack power of the third level of Tianyuan, to a height of 30,000 feet.
boom!
A black ball of light explodes.
There was a lot of shaking in the sky, but the people of the Jun family below were safe and no one had any accidents.
This miraculous sword draw.
Let everyone be amazed.
This is the terrifying strength of the heir apparent of their Jun family!
This is too outrageous!
Such a terrifying ball of light was forced to be removed by him, and the entire Jun family was saved by one person.
The elders present looked at him in amazement.
Jun Xiaoyao ignored it and looked at the black mist high in the sky with a thoughtful expression.
"The demons have reappeared in the human world."
After a long time, Jun Xiaoyao said with a heavy heart.
The self-destruction of the Great Elder just before his death was not at all the Great Elder's own strength, but the magic power stored in the Great Elder's body by the demons.
Ordinary people can't see this magic power at all, but Jun Xiaoyao can.
But it was precisely because he saw it that Jun Xiaoyao looked worried.
Millions of years ago, he once led the powerful humans to fight against the demons. During that battle, the humans suffered heavy casualties. More than 70% of the powerful humans died in the battle with the demons.
Even when Jun Xiaoyao recalled that battle, he still had lingering fears.
In the same realm, the strength of demons is more than ten times stronger than that of humans.
Except for Jun Xiaoyao, who can defeat the strongest demons with his unparalleled swordsmanship in the same realm, more than 99% of other strong human beings would find it difficult to do so.
In the original battle a million years ago, if they had not used their huge numerical advantage, they would not have been able to push back the demons.
This is an extremely terrifying race!
I thought that after the first battle, it would be very difficult for the demons to invade the human world again.
But he never expected that the eldest elder of the Jun family whom he suppressed today would actually let him discover traces of the demons.
This made Jun Xiaoyao worried.
The spiritual realm is in trouble!
The entire human race may be in trouble!
While Jun Xiaoyao was deep in thought, Jun Ruoxue came over.
"Xiaoyao, what are you thinking about?" Jun Ruoxue asked.
Hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao realized that he had no intention of telling Jun Ruoxue about the demon clan's reappearance in the world. It would be better not to know about this kind of thing than to know.
"It's nothing, aunt. Now that the great elder is dead, let's deal with these rebellious elders first."
Jun Xiaoyao said while looking at the fifty rebellious elders.
When these elders saw Jun Xiaoyao looking over, they immediately knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please spare your life. We all listened to the great elder's instigation, and that's why we launched a rebellion."
"Please spare us. We swear we will never do it again."
"Your Majesty, please, don't kill us!"
This group of rebellious elders knelt on the ground one by one, kowtowing to Jun Xiaoyao and admitting their mistakes, just like kneeling before their ancestors.
They didn't dare to escape at all, because none of the great elders at the top tenth level of the Earth Yuan Realm had escaped from Jun Xiaoyao's hands, let alone them.
In addition to the rebellious elders who knelt down, those elders who had remained neutral before also knelt down knowing the current situation, hoping that Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Ruoxue would forgive them for their previous neutral actions.
Regarding this.
Jun Xiaoyao did not look at them anymore, but said to Jun Ruoxue: "Aunt, you are the clan leader. You know more about the complex situation of the family. You can handle it."
Hearing this, Jun Ruoxue smiled beautifully: She was really pleased that Jun Xiaoyao now had such strength and respected her as an aunt so much.
"Okay, Xiaoyao, just wait a moment, I'll take care of these things right away."
So, Jun Ruoxue began to deal with these elders kneeling on the ground.
She first took out a roster.
On the roster, all information about each elder is recorded.
For a very few people who follow the great elder and do all the bad things and lose their conscience, they will be executed on the spot.
For those elders who are forced by the great elder to take sides, they will be punished lightly.
Those elders who remain neutral will also be punished to varying degrees.
After punishing those rebellious and neutral elders.
Jun Ruoxue began to reward those loyal elders, not only giving them generous rewards, but also improving their status among the elders to varying degrees.
It has to be said that Jun Ruoxue's approach is very clear about rewards and punishments.
Jun Xiaoyao saw this and couldn't help but nodded. He also agreed with his aunt's approach.
After everything is over.
After all the elders dispersed.
Jun Xiaoyao, Jun Ruoxue, and Su Ling'er were the only three people left in the mansion.
"Auntie, I want to ask you something." Jun Xiaoyao said suddenly.
"What's the matter? Xiaoyao, just ask." Jun Ruoxue said.
"Who did the Great Elder come into contact with during his lifetime, and where did he often go?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"Why are you asking this?" Jun Ruoxue was stunned. She didn't understand why Jun Xiaoyao cared about this?
"This matter is very important. Auntie, you must tell me in detail and don't miss any detail." Jun Xiaoyao said seriously.
The great elder's self-destruction before his death allowed him to discover the traces of the demons.
He must follow this clue to find out where the demons are in the human world and then destroy them.
Otherwise, let alone the bigger picture, the spiritual realm alone will be the first to face catastrophe. Jun Xiaoyao dare not say that he can protect the world now, but he must at least protect the important people around him.
He didn't want any of his aunt and Ling'er to suffer the horrific demonic catastrophe.
Regarding Jun Xiaoyao's solemn look, although Jun Ruoxue didn't know the situation, she knew that Xiaoyao's question must have a deep meaning.
Afterwards, Jun Ruoxue immediately told Jun Xiaoyao in detail what happened to the great elder during his lifetime.
"The Great Elder is very close to the Lin family. He and the powerful Lin family often go to a place called Black Demon Cliff..."
Jun Ruoxue said slowly.
"Lin family? Black Devil Cliff?"
Jun Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, I don't know where the Black Devil Cliff is. I've heard it secretly before. But this Lin family is strange. It was clearly the weakest family among the top ten families before, but now I don't know how it happened.
What happened is that the family’s strength suddenly increased inexplicably and became the first of the top ten aristocratic families.”
Jun Ruoxue said.
Hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao's eyes narrowed.
The demon clan's hands are not only reaching out to the Jun family, there are also people in the Lin family who are the demon clan's puppets.
It seems that he needs to find an opportunity to go to the Lin family, look for traces of the demons reappearing in the world, and find out the specific location of the Black Demon Cliff.
Just as he was thinking.
Jun Ruoxue said: "Xiaoyao, if you didn't tell me about the Lin family, I almost forgot. The eldest lady of the Lin family is coming to my Jun's house to break off the engagement in a few days. Don't be angry!"
"Cancel the engagement?" Jun Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows and then smiled: "You came just in time, just what I wanted."
