The Strongest Mythical Emperor-Chapter 26 - Oppression

26: Chapter 26 Oppression

26 -26 Oppression

“No!” Qin Jun stared seriously at Zhuo Junjie, causing Zhuo Junjie to be taken aback.

However, Qin Jun’s next words nearly made him spit blood: “I am Qin Jun of the Foundation Establishment Realm.”

Pfft!

It’s you either way!

Zhuo Junjie’s eyes blazed with anger, but the mere Foundation Establishment Realm was not worthy of his concern.

He subconsciously glanced at Daji standing behind Qin Jun, and his pupils contracted sharply.

He found he couldn’t see through Daji!

“Did you cause last night’s heavenly tribulation?” Chang Tianyou asked, with more than a dozen elders standing beside him, looking at Qin Jun and his party fiercely, as if they were ready to devour them.

It’s no wonder; they thought another Golden Elixir Realm powerhouse had appeared in their sect, only to be duped and even serve as a lightning rod for a heavenly tribulation—for free!

Remembering their excitement and jubilation at the time, they wished they could find a hole to crawl into.

“I didn’t expect to cause a heavenly tribulation either.” Qin Jun spread his hands innocently, his expression making Chang Tianyou want to slap him across the face.

Standing to the side, Chang Hao couldn’t help but sneer.

Although he also believed that Xuanling Sect was no match for Qin Jun, this incident could worsen the relationship between Xuanling Sect and Qin Jun!

Qin Jun, as the Third Prince, undoubtedly had his sights set on the throne in the future.

Chang Hao had inquired about this.

Qin Jun’s relationship with the Fifth Prince, Qin Yu, was extremely poor, virtually eliminating any chance of a union with the Purple Light Sect backing Qin Yu.

Now, by driving a wedge between Qin Jun and Xuanling Sect, it was as good as Qin Jun losing the potential support of two major sects!

As for dealing with Burning Mountain Valley, Chang Hao planned to throw obstacles in Qin Jun’s path later on.

Thinking thus, Chang Hao’s lips curled into a cold smile, only to fade upon seeing Chang Qianqian holding onto the hem of Qin Jun’s clothes.

“I swear I’ll cripple you!”

Chang Hao roared inwardly, and as if sensing his malicious gaze, Qin Jun suddenly turned and gave him a bright smile, frightening him into quickly lowering his head.

“Do you understand how much damage your tribulation last night has caused to our Xuanling Sect?” Chang Tianyou asked sternly.

Curiosity also stirred within him as to how Qin Jun could have provoked a heavenly tribulation.

He could tell at a glance that Qin Jun’s cultivation was of the Foundation Establishment Realm’s fifth layer only.

Wait, the fifth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm?

Chang Tianyou’s lips twitched.

It was obvious to him that Qin Jun was only sixteen or seventeen years old.

Such cultivation at such a young age meant that in front of Qin Jun, Xuanling Sect’s most prized talents, Zhuo Junjie and Zhong Ling, couldn’t even be considered geniuses.

“I’m sorry.” Qin Jun apologized formally with clasped hands.

“It’s okay, it’s okay…” Chang Qianqian unconsciously patted her chest.

What she feared most was Qin Jun’s stubbornness rearing its head and clashing with Chang Tianyou.

“However…” Qin Jun suddenly changed tack, making Chang Qianqian’s heart rise again: “I saved your daughter and your disciple.

We’re even now, wouldn’t you say?”

Wasn’t Xuanling Sect’s annual spirit stone budget worth less than the life of the sect leader’s daughter?

He had apologized, and he wasn’t about to ask for any rewards.

He was at peace with himself.

“You…” Chang Tianyou was fuming, and the senior elders behind him were seething with anger.

Chang Hao’s eyes lit up with a smile.

Good old familiar Qin Jun.

“Right, Father, let it go,” Chang Qianqian said as she came forward to shake Chang Tianyou’s arm with a smile: “Father, you have no idea how well Qin Jun has looked after me during our journey.

He even dared to kill Xiahou En!”

By deliberately bringing this up, she was hinting to Chang Tianyou to quell his anger, as the strength of Qin Jun’s side was no less intimidating than that of Xuanling Sect.

In Xuanling Sect, no more than three people, other than the spoiled and pampered cultivators unaccustomed to life-and-death battles, could match Xiahou En’s fighting prowess.

Chang Tianyou was no fool.

Given how obvious Chang Qianqian was hinting, even the elders inhaled sharply, all frowning and turning their attention to Qin Jun and Daji.

As for the Roaring Sky Dog, they outright ignored it.

“Sister Daji is actually a strong practitioner of the Transforming Void Realm.” Chang Qianqian then moved close to Daji and, taking Daji’s hand playfully, said in an innocent manner.

The Transforming Void Realm!

Chang Tianyou and the elders were all open-mouthed in shock.

A white-haired elder in particular, trembling all over, exclaimed: “How can this be?

When did the Qianyue Kingdom produce such a mighty Transforming Void Realm power?”

He was the Great Elder of Xuanling Sect, a peak Golden Elixir Realm practitioner, Xu Hai!

Having lived for nearly a century, he knew full well the might of the Transforming Void Realm.

He had ventured outside the Qianyue Kingdom in his youth and had the fortune to witness the terror of a Transforming Void Realm powerhouse, a level of power none in the Golden Elixir or Ascending Mortal Realms could hope to match.

Xu Hai observed Daji carefully, growing more alarmed by the moment, for he couldn’t determine Daji’s cultivation at all.

She seemed like an ordinary person to him.

An invisible enemy is the most terrifying!

Chang Tianyou, frowning, asked, “Qianqian, are you telling the truth?”

As the sect leader, he was one of the few who knew of the existence of the Transforming Void Realm.

He understood how devastating such a powerhouse could be to the Qianyue Kingdom.

Against such a force, the entire Xuanling Sect would not be enough for Daji to slaughter.

“Hee hee, my young master has already apologized.

I hope your esteemed sect will not make things difficult, or else…” Daji covered her mouth with a dainty laugh and released her terrifying aura, which pressed down on everyone in the great hall as if they had been hit hard.

Apart from Qin Jun and Chang Qianqian, everyone was terrified.

Chang Hao, Zhuo Junjie, Zhong Ling, and all the other disciples below the Golden Elixir Realm were even forced to kneel by Daji’s imposing presence.

So strong!

Zhuo Junjie and Zhong Ling’s eyes widened, never expecting the beautiful woman to be so outrageously powerful.

Daji didn’t continue to make it difficult for them and soon withdrew her aura.

“My Daji sometimes has a bit of a temper, please forgive us,” Qin Jun said with a bow and a smile, prompting an eye-roll from Daji.

Chang Tianyou and the others had twitching mouths.

Although they were angry, they were more shocked and relieved.

Thank goodness for Chang Qianqian’s timely reminder!

“Enough!

Let’s consider this matter resolved!” Chang Tianyou waved it off, adopting a magnanimous demeanor, which almost made Qin Jun laugh.

Chang Qianqian clapped her hands in delight and then invited both parties to a banquet.

Qin Jun straightforwardly refused, shaking his head: “That’s enough, I need to be on my way.”

With that, he turned and headed for the exit of the great hall, with Daji following close behind, her steps graceful.

The Roaring Sky Dog wagged its tail happily, looking nothing like the terrifying demon it was.

“Wait a moment!”

Just then, Zhuo Junjie suddenly spoke up, prompting Qin Jun to stop and look at him in surprise.

Is this guy a fool?

Can he not see the situation clearly?

“The matter of the heavenly tribulation can be set aside, but I would like to challenge you.

You must have some extraordinary skill to have provoked it!” Zhuo Junjie said with fervent eyes, not feeling the slightest shame in using his peak Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation to bully Qin Jun.

Chang Tianyou and the elders silently rooted for him.

If they let Qin Jun and his party go like this, how would they face others in the future?

Their reputation would be tarnished!

If Zhuo Junjie defeated Qin Jun and showed restraint, they could at least redeem some face for Xuanling Sect.

“Ding!

Side mission triggered—Defeat the talent of Xuanling Sect!

On completion, you will receive 1000 experience points!”
