As the dust and smoke dispersed, the figures of the Daoist Yaolong and Elder Lingxing appeared in the eyes of all the surrounding Cultivators.
They were covered in dust and blood, looking utterly wretched.
Where was there any trace of the demeanor of a Great Emperor expert?
Meanwhile, Jun Xiaoyao, holding the Fairy Furnace, stood in the Void Realm with calm, ripple-less eyes.
It was as if defeating them was the most ordinary thing in the world.
"Wait, Your Excellency, please stop!"
Elder Lingxing coughed up a mouthful of blood and hurriedly said.
They were not stupid.
To fight to the death now would simply be courting death.
They could also sense that Jun Xiaoyao's killing intent towards them was not particularly strong.
It wasn't that he didn't dare to kill them, but rather that he simply didn't care about them at all.
They were just like ants at his feet.
He could crush them if he wanted, or it wouldn't matter if he didn't.
Otherwise, they would likely have been decapitated by now.
"Thank you, Your Excellency, for showing mercy; we were blind and failed to recognize a superior expert!"
Even though Elder Lingxing had suffered heavy injuries and a great loss.
He still had to thank Jun Xiaoyao for the grace of not killing him.
That is the reality of the situation.
With strength, one can truly do whatever one wants.
Although he had the Star Dragon Clan backing him.
Elder Lingxing could not fathom Jun Xiaoyao's background.
He felt that even if a few more Great Emperors came to surround and attack him, it probably wouldn't make a difference.
Unless a tycoon-level Great Emperor took action.
But even if such a figure took action, could they really stop Jun Xiaoyao?
Elder Lingxing did not know.
It is the unknown that is truly daunting.
He also did not know if there were other forces behind Jun Xiaoyao.
Therefore, in this situation, Elder Lingxing could only yield for the time being, not daring to confront him to the end.
The Daoist Yaolong was clearly thinking the same, his eyes lingering with deep apprehension, not daring to say anything presumptuous again.
Seeing this, Su Jinli was overjoyed.
Just a moment ago they were shameless, and now they know how to behave?
Indeed, sometimes you just have to slap them in the face.
Otherwise, they wouldn't know how thick their own skin was.
Meanwhile, the Dragon Lady Hai Ruo looked at Jun Xiaoyao, slightly moved.
Could it be that Jun Xiaoyao showed mercy to Elder Lingxing because of her?
After all, if Jun Xiaoyao were to bear a grudge against the Star Dragon Clan.
Then as a Dragon Lady of the Star Dragon Clan, being caught in the middle would be truly difficult for her.
The entire Duankong City fell into silence.
Even the Great Emperors of the Light Wing Clan, the Sand Clan, and the Rock Clan did not dare to act rashly again.
For fear of being suppressed and killed by Jun Xiaoyao.
Young Master Yaolong and Dragon Prince Ling Shang were dumbfounded, standing rooted to the spot.
Such a young man, who looked even much younger than them.
Was actually much stronger than their Elders.
How despairing was this comparison?
They could only console themselves in their hearts that perhaps Jun Xiaoyao had taken some immortality elixir or used some ancient youth-preserving recipe.
That was why he could maintain such a state.
Even so, that vigorous Qi and temperament could not be hidden; it had not been tempered by the passage of time.
They were merely deceiving themselves, trying to console themselves.
"You may get lost now."
Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.
It was not that he wouldn't kill, but that there was no need.
If he killed them all, at least five or six clans would seek revenge.
Jun Xiaoyao was truly lazy; he would avoid trouble whenever possible.
Of course, it was also because Elder Lingxing and the others had not touched his bottom line, merely spouting nonsense.
If they had touched his bottom line, Jun Xiaoyao naturally would not have let them off.
"Thank you, Your Excellency."
Elder Lingxing and the others hurriedly left, not daring to linger.
Dragon Prince Ling Shang glanced at Hai Ruo.
He suddenly understood why she chose to follow Jun Xiaoyao.
Indeed, Hai Ruo's luck had always been better than his.
Before long, the bustling Duankong City was completely emptied.
Only Jun Xiaoyao and his group remained.
"Young Master Jun, your strength is simply too powerful."
"I fear that even the top figures of those Hegemon Clans cannot compare." Su Jinli praised with a click of her tongue.
She did not yet know of Jun Xiaoyao's Young Emperor Level strength; she only felt that he was very awesome.
"Let's continue to Cultivate next." Jun Xiaoyao smiled indifferently.
Young Master Kongxu hesitated slightly before speaking: "Young Master, should we run away?"
"Why?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
Young Master Kongxu looked worried.
"News of the Fengyue Ancient Sect has already spread; I fear it will stir up quite a storm next."
"By then, many people might come here."
Young Master Kongxu knew how notorious the Fengyue Ancient Sect was.
And how much it was hated.
Now, after the incident at Duankong City and the emergence of the Fairy Furnace.
The news would surely spread rapidly, and it might incite public anger.
He reckoned that if they continued to stay here, it wouldn't be long before they were besieged and exterminated.
After listening, Jun Xiaoyao said leisurely: "Isn't that even better?"
"Uh... Young Master, what do you mean..."
Young Master Kongxu was a bit confused.
Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently: "If the Fengyue Ancient Sect wants to grow, doesn't it need to recruit followers?"
"Since people are coming, wouldn't they be excellent candidates for proselytizing?"
Young Master Kongxu was stunned.
"But Young Master, those people harbor great hostility towards the Fengyue Ancient Sect; turning them into followers seems..."
Jun Xiaoyao chuckled.
"In this world, the easiest thing to change is the human heart."
Time passed, and the incident at Duankong City, unsurprisingly.
Spread rapidly to the surrounding realms as if it had grown wings.
Especially with the emergence of the Fairy Furnace and the suspected appearance of a successor to the Fengyue Ancient Sect, it caused a massive stir.
The notoriety of the Fengyue Ancient Sect goes without saying.
It had almost reached the point where everyone wanted to beat them.
And the emergence of the Fairy Furnace almost signaled that this sect was reviving from the ashes.
It would certainly stir up waves.
The main force among them was naturally the little Fairies of various clans and forces.
Whether they were princesses of Imperial Dynasties, Fairies of major sects, noble ladies of ancient families, or the proud daughters of the top hundred clans, etc.
Upon hearing this news, they were all extremely indignant.
The rise of this Ancient Sect posed a greater threat to women than to men.
After all, the Fairy Furnace was too targeted at women.
And later, the news became more and more outrageous.
For example, it was said that the Dragon Lady Hai Ruo of the Star Dragon Clan had been suppressed by that Sect Leader Fengyue and kept by his side as a slave, with a miserable plight.
There were also rumors of Heavenly Immortal-like young girls being forced to stay by Sect Leader Fengyue's side to serve him.
In short, the more outrageous, the better.
After all, people only believe what they want to believe.
As the news spread, it indeed triggered a chain reaction.
A proud daughter of the Flower Fairy Clan, one of the top hundred clans, emerged and set off for Duankong City.
There was also the proud daughter of the Lotus Clan, the Lotus Fairy, who heard the news and intended to take action.
The Saintess of the Moon Clan came out of seclusion after hearing the news and left with her Elders.
The famous five sisters of the Mermaid Clan were discussing among themselves.
"Sisters, let us go see Her Majesty the Empress and request that she take action, to go to Duankong City together and eliminate the evil!"
