Su Lingyun was exquisitely beautiful and unworldly, with unparalleled elegance.
Dressed in a green Daoist robe, her figure was tall and slender.
Her dark hair, reflective enough to see one's face in, was tied into a ponytail.
She looked natural and fresh.
Like a lotus emerging from clear water, naturally unadorned.
It could be said that even beneath the dazzling brilliance of Oriental Aoyue's beauty, Su Lingyun still possessed a unique freshness and charm.
This was a different kind of beauty from Oriental Aoyue's.
Oriental Aoyue's beauty was world-shaking and peerless, like a peony, captivating all beings.
Su Lingyun, on the other hand, was like a clear spring in the mountains, a lotus flower, refreshing and naturally elegant.
Seeing this handsome Young Master instantly transform into a woman, Oriental Aoyue knew exactly what had happened.
"This is…" Oriental Aoyue began.
"Let's get acquainted. Three Purities Dao Gate, Su Lingyun." Su Lingyun extended her hand, graceful and poised.
Oriental Aoyue was momentarily stunned, then offered a slight smile.
Although it was their first meeting, Su Lingyun had just told Jun Xiaoyao, "Your wife wants to kill me."
The word "wife" was quite pleasing to Oriental Aoyue.
Even though she didn't officially have that title yet.
"My apologies, it was a misunderstanding." Oriental Aoyue also extended her jade hand, a faint smile gracing her exquisite face.
Jun Xiaoyao was momentarily taken aback.
When had Oriental Aoyue ever shown such a smile to anyone else?
He naturally didn't know how much Su Lingyun's single word, "wife," had touched Oriental Aoyue's heart.
The two women's jade hands clasping together formed a beautiful tableau.
However, there was no time to admire it now.
Su Lingyun also briefly explained the situation to Oriental Aoyue.
Oriental Aoyue understood.
However, Su Lingyun omitted some minor details.
Such as the close-quarters combat with Jun Xiaoyao, and him striking her chest.
As she spoke, Su Lingyun secretly winked at Jun Xiaoyao.
As if to say, "I'm being pretty considerate, aren't I? I didn't say anything inappropriate in front of your wife."
Jun Xiaoyao could only keep his gaze down, pretending not to have seen it.
After the misunderstanding was resolved, Oriental Aoyue looked at the two floating masses of Demonic Lord Origin, then said to Jun Xiaoyao,
"Xiaoyao, take these Demonic Lord Origins and absorb them."
After the breakthrough in the Seven Deadly Sins Illusion Realm with Jun Xiaoyao, Oriental Aoyue seemed to have truly transformed into a virtuous wife, a doting spouse.
Her first consideration was no longer her own strength, but whether Jun Xiaoyao needed it.
"There's no need for that. The Demonic Lord Origin within me is far greater than these. Aoyue, you should refine them," Jun Xiaoyao said, then turned to Miss Su.
"Miss Su, I also hope you won't spread word about us possessing Demonic Lord Origin."
"Of course. I know this is part of your plan."
"As long as it can harm the Doomsday Divine Sect and benefit the Three Teachings, I will naturally support it."
Su Lingyun nodded, indicating her understanding.
Seeing this, Oriental Aoyue no longer refused.
After all, there was no need for formalities between her and Jun Xiaoyao anymore.
Soon, Oriental Aoyue began to absorb and refine the two pure masses of Demonic Lord Origin.
"Tsk tsk, Miss Dongfang is truly extraordinary. Not only does she possess Demon Empress Origin, but she also has Demonic Lord Origin…"
Even Su Lingyun was astonished.
It was evident that Oriental Aoyue would absolutely become a person of immense power in the future.
Su Lingyun was naturally happy to form some acquaintance with Oriental Aoyue.
Although her title as Blood Princess wasn't well-regarded in the Boundary Sea.
But Su Lingyun didn't mind.
She now felt that Oriental Aoyue's character was actually quite good; where was the ruthless and coldness rumored about her?
She naturally didn't know that it was her correct words that had earned Oriental Aoyue's favor.
While Oriental Aoyue was absorbing the Demonic Lord Origin, Su Lingyun said, "I'll go guard outside the palace for you two, to prevent others from disturbing you."
"Miss Su, this demon sword seven deadly sins…" Jun Xiaoyao hesitated slightly.
Su Lingyun didn't mind, smiling, "It doesn't matter. I never really expected to take the demon sword seven deadly sins away anyway; the Doomsday Divine Sect wouldn't be so careless."
"If it falls under your control, then I'll be at ease."
"At the very least, both of you are bombs planted within the Doomsday Divine Sect."
"And if, in the future, you gain the ability to control the Doomsday Divine Sect, perhaps my Three Teachings could resolve a major enemy without expending a single soldier."
"Isn't that wonderful?" Su Lingyun said with a smile, her face fresh and bright.
Jun Xiaoyao couldn't help but secretly sigh with admiration.
This Dao Gate sister was open-minded and insightful!
He liked cooperating with people like her; it saved a lot of effort.
"Then I'll trouble Miss Su," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"No need to be polite. Our Dao Gate loves to forge good karma. Perhaps I'll need to rely on you, Young Lord Jun Xiaoyao, in the future."
Su Lingyun blinked and smiled.
"If you ever need anything in the future, just find me," Jun Xiaoyao replied freely.
"Straightforward."
Su Lingyun turned and transformed back into Young Master Su, her figure receding into the distance.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly.
He had a good impression of this easygoing, unrestrained, and somewhat forthright young woman.
Of course, it was the good impression one has of a friend.
When Jun Xiaoyao turned his gaze back, Oriental Aoyue had already temporarily refined all the Demonic Lord Origin.
Her aura had also risen another notch.
"Successful?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"Mm." Oriental Aoyue nodded her head.
This feeling of power increasing was incredibly fulfilling.
Every bit of improvement meant she had taken another step forward on her path of revenge.
"Then next…" Jun Xiaoyao began, but before he could finish his sentence, he heard a laugh.
"What a nice show."
It was an extremely sudden female voice.
Jun Xiaoyao and Oriental Aoyue were both surprised.
Could there be other hidden presences within the palace?
But how was that possible?
Even if someone was hidden, they could never escape Jun Xiaoyao's keen Divine Soul perception.
"No, the direction of that voice is…"
Jun Xiaoyao and Oriental Aoyue's gazes snapped to the light mass in the center of the Seven Deadly Sins pool.
The light mass began to dissipate.
The blurry shadow within also revealed itself.
But it wasn't a sword, as they had imagined.
Instead, it was… a person!
An extremely beautiful woman!
The woman was enveloped in a simple red gauze, her face alluringly foxy.
Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall into the pool.
The only difference from ordinary people was that faint, eerie demon patterns appeared on her body.
But this did not diminish the woman's beauty; instead, it made her beauty even more enchanting and sinister.
"You are…" Killing Intent surged in Oriental Aoyue's eyes.
The woman's presence here proved that she had seen and known everything that had just happened.
This was information that absolutely could not be leaked.
Otherwise, their plan would face significant obstacles.
However, Jun Xiaoyao extended his hand, blocking Oriental Aoyue.
"Xiaoyao…" Oriental Aoyue looked at Jun Xiaoyao.
"Isn't this our target?" Jun Xiaoyao's lips curved into an arc.
Oriental Aoyue immediately realized, looking at the beautiful woman.
"You are… the demon sword seven deadly sins!"
