Chapter 97 - Chapter 97: The Guiding Girl Qin Xuan, Above the Imperial City, on the Forbidden City Peak, You Can Look Forward to It

Just as the entire Immortal Domain was stirring.

Jun Xiaoyao, who was at the center of the storm, was about to arrive at the Imperial Capital of the Panwu Divine Dynasty.

He passed through several teleportation arrays midway and arrived at Panwu Dao Province.

The Imperial Capital of the Panwu Divine Dynasty was located in the central region of Panwu Dao Province.

There was still less than half a month left, which was enough time for Jun Xiaoyao's next arrangements.

At this moment, the Nine-Headed Lion's voice came from outside the carriage.

"Master, the Imperial Capital of the Panwu Divine Dynasty is just ahead."

Hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao lifted the curtain and looked.

Ahead, a magnificent and immense city stood towering on the ground.

The entire massive city was boundless, its city walls stretching infinitely far to the left and right, like the Great Wall.

Within the Imperial Capital, there were pavilions, towers, bustling markets, and surging crowds.

Numerous floating islands were suspended in the sky, with palaces scattered upon them, resembling divine palaces and immortal abodes.

"This Panwu Divine Dynasty truly lives up to its name as an Immortal Dynasty; it indeed possesses a grand aura." Jun Xiaoyao observed.

Immortal Dao Lineages are transcendent and supreme, truly behemoths of the Immortal Domain; none of them are simple.

It was precisely for this reason that although the Jun Family and the Ancestral Dragon Nest harbored deep-seated hatred for each other, they had never initiated an Immortal Battle.

Because both sides knew that completely eradicating an Immortal Force was not a simple matter.

Of course, strictly speaking, it was the Ancestral Dragon Nest that was more apprehensive of the Jun Family.

As for the Panwu Divine Dynasty, a Dao Lineage established by Panwu Great Emperor back then, although it no longer retained its most prosperous period, it hadn't declined much either.

Jun Xiaoyao descended from the sky, while the Nine-Headed Lion broke free from its reins and followed Jun Xiaoyao.

"Gou Sheng, aren't you a bit too conspicuous like this?" Jun Xiaoyao asked, glancing sideways.

The Nine-Headed Lion's entire body was like cast gold, emitting golden light that was so dazzling it made it hard for people to open their eyes; it was simply too brilliant.

Jun Xiaoyao certainly didn't want to become a monkey in a zoo, being gawked at by people.

Moreover, some of the things he needed to do were not convenient to do too ostentatiously.

"Master, could you please not call me by my real name?" the Nine-Headed Lion mumbled softly, feeling a bit sullen.

Then, its body suddenly shrank, and finally, under Jun Xiaoyao's gaze, it transformed into a...

Uh... a Shiba Inu.

That's right, in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes, it was no different from a Shiba Inu.

However, this was a nine-headed Shiba Inu, which looked a bit odd and comical.

"Is this considered a walking meme? So be it." Jun Xiaoyao sighed lightly.

At least the nine-headed Shiba Inu wasn't so ostentatious anymore.

Jun Xiaoyao, with his hands clasped behind his back, strolled leisurely through the city gate and entered the Imperial Capital.

The Divine Dynasty soldiers guarding the city gate, upon seeing Jun Xiaoyao, all showed surprise and suspicion in their eyes and dared not stop him.

Because Jun Xiaoyao's aura was simply too transcendent.

His body faintly glowed with divine light, enveloped in immortal radiance, and exuded an immortal charm and Dao intent from head to toe.

This was naturally attributed to the great luo immortal bone he had refined.

Jun Xiaoyao's appearance was also shrouded in immortal radiance, making it impossible to see clearly.

Thus, Jun Xiaoyao entered the Imperial Capital directly without any obstruction.

After Jun Xiaoyao left, a young guard finally asked in confusion, "Captain, why didn't you stop that person to check his identity? The higher-ups stipulated that all Cultivators entering the city must be checked."

"You blockhead, is that kind of person someone you can just casually stop and check? He might be a favored Disciple of some Immortal Dao Lineage, whose status is no lower than the Princess!" the captain said, glaring.

"Oh, I see." The young guard nodded repeatedly, a wave of lingering fear washing over him.

After Jun Xiaoyao entered the Imperial Capital, he also attracted many gazes.

Although his appearance was obscured by a seemingly ethereal mist, his aura could not be concealed.

Many young maidens and female Cultivators from major forces couldn't help but glance at Jun Xiaoyao from the corners of their eyes.

Although many people knew of Jun Xiaoyao's name throughout the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain.

However, very few people had actually seen him.

Furthermore, many Disciples of Immortal Dao Lineages, possessing King Bodies, Divine Bodies, and so on, were also enveloped in a misty aura.

It couldn't be that everyone shrouded in immortal light was Jun Xiaoyao, could it?

Therefore, no one saw through him.

At this moment, a young girl dressed in a simple blue cloth dress, with hesitation in her expression, finally gritted her teeth and bravely stepped forward.

"Young Master, this must be your first time in the Imperial Capital of the Divine Dynasty, right? Qin Xuan can lead you and help you understand various situations."

The young girl named Qin Xuan had an anxious expression.

She had guided many Disciples from major forces before, but it was her first time encountering someone as mysterious and transcendent as Jun Xiaoyao.

Other female Cultivators only dared to watch from afar, not having the courage to approach.

"Oh?" Jun Xiaoyao's gaze fell on Qin Xuan, and he slightly raised an eyebrow.

Qin Xuan was only fifteen or sixteen years old, yet her cultivation had actually reached the Great Perfection of the Divine Bridge Realm.

He noticed this, but didn't say anything.

"Alright, you can lead the way then." Jun Xiaoyao casually took out a piece of supreme godly source.

A group of passersby around them were stunned.

"Holy cow, that's a Peerless Grade godly source! That Young Master is too rich, isn't he?"

"He's definitely a successor of some Immortal Force. Sigh, I truly envy that girl!"

Many exclamations rang out from all around, and many female Cultivators bit their lips and stomped their feet, secretly cursing themselves for missing the opportunity.

Qin Xuan also had her mouth slightly agape, appearing somewhat flattered.

Jun Xiaoyao's expression, however, was very calm.

Because supreme godly source was already the most common currency he carried.

"Young Master, let me tell you about the recent news. In just a few days, the banquet for the Divine Dynasty Long Princess to choose a consort will be held."

"And that Champion Marquis will challenge the Jun Family Divine Child at the peak of the Forbidden City."

"I heard that the Jun Family Divine Child is like a Heavenly Immortal, possessing an unrivaled demeanor among his peers."

When Qin Xuan spoke of Jun Xiaoyao, her beautiful eyes were filled with longing.

After all, Jun Xiaoyao was already the dream of billions of maidens in the Immortal Domain.

Meanwhile, the Nine-Headed Lion following beside them had a strange look in its eyes.

If this girl knew that the person beside her was the Jun Family Divine Child whom she admired and longed for, she would probably be so excited that she'd faint, right?

However, when she mentioned the Champion Marquis next, her emotions were clearly off, showing a fluctuation.

It was as if there was a hint of hatred within.

Jun Xiaoyao saw this and casually asked, "If the Jun Family Divine Child truly accepts the challenge, who do you hope will win?"

Hearing this, Qin Xuan's eyes flashed with deep-seated hatred, and she said without hesitation, "Qin Xuan hopes the Jun Family Divine Child can win, and even kill that Champion Marquis!"

A strange glint flashed in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes, and he said, "Given your age, to have the cultivation of Divine Bridge Great Perfection, your background shouldn't be simple, right? How did you end up guiding people?"

Qin Xuan clenched her fingers into a fist, and her voice slightly deepened as she said, "I was originally from the Qin Heaven Marquis Manor. My father was the Qin Heaven Marquis of the Divine Dynasty."

"And my mother was a rather famous beauty in the Divine Dynasty. Later, she was taken fancy to by the Champion Marquis, who wanted to take her into his harem. My father refused, and then he was killed by him, and my mother also committed suicide to follow him."

"The entire Marquis Manor declined, and I could only wander outside." Qin Xuan whispered, the hatred in her eyes so thick it couldn't be dissolved.

"So that's how it is." Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly.

He didn't feel too much sympathy; after all, there were too many people in this world worthy of sympathy.

Jun Xiaoyao was not the kind of 'Saint Mother' who would feel pity upon seeing miserable people.

"I'm sorry, I've talked about so many personal matters; you must be displeased, Young Master." Qin Xuan regained her composure and forced a smile.

"Don't you want revenge?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.

"Revenge? The Champion Marquis is like a local tyrant in the Panwu Divine Dynasty; who can get revenge on him?" Qin Xuan said bitterly, feeling utterly powerless.

"Above the Imperial City, at the peak of the Forbidden City, perhaps you can look forward to it then."

Jun Xiaoyao whispered softly, his hands clasped behind his back, and leisurely walked ahead.

Looking at Jun Xiaoyao's back, Qin Xuan was momentarily stunned.

She didn't quite understand what Jun Xiaoyao meant by those words.
