Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Jun Wuxie lay in bed, embracing Yue Yao, his heart unable to calm down for a long time.

That night, he had accepted too much information that was like a fantasy.

But he knew that every word Yue Yao said was true.

She would never lie to him.

Her words echoed and repeated in his mind, over and over again.

Back then, his mother brought him to this world, and due to the space-time disorder, the timeline was reversed by more than ten years.

That is equivalent to the current timeline of this world almost coinciding with the timeline when his origin was shattered in the Divine Ancient Continent.

In that world, he and Yue Yao had known each other since childhood, and they could be said to be childhood sweethearts.

What was Yue Yao's identity in the Divine Ancient Continent?

Yue Yao didn't say, and he didn't ask.

Although his heart was full of doubts about some things, he didn't want to embarrass her.

His mind was full of thoughts.

At this moment, he felt an unusual change in Yue Yao in his arms.

He looked down.

He found that her body was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

On her right wrist, there was a faint, crystal-clear light.

In this crystal light, an exquisite bracelet shimmering with silver-white light gradually appeared.

What is this?

He looked at it in surprise.

This bracelet was strung together by many heart-shaped, crystal-like gems, and the chains between the gems had many beautiful openwork designs, with two tiny ancient characters engraved on them—Eternity!

If you look closely, those openwork designs and ancient characters are actually intertwined by many runes.

“This should be Yao'er's previous ornament, but why do I feel like it doesn't have any energy fluctuations?”

Jun Wuxie was deeply surprised.

Yao'er came from the Divine Ancient Continent, and her status must be extraordinary.

The things on her body should not be ordinary!

After thinking about it, perhaps this bracelet, like Yao'er, had some special condition that caused it to be like this.

He didn't dwell on this matter, and quietly watched Yue Yao, watching her gradually grow up under his gaze.

By the second half of the night.

She had already grown to be about ten years old.

In her sleep, her exquisite and perfect facial features showed she was definitely a beauty.

“You really look like the you I saw when I was dying back then, as well as the appearance of you reflected in the Everlasting Ancient Mirror…”

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but smile, gently stroking her long hair.

At this moment, Yue Yao, the woman who descended from the sky, and the woman in the Everlasting Ancient Mirror, their facial features could be completely matched.

It's just that she looks very young now, while those two women are more mature and have more presence.

By the morning.

She had turned into a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, growing into a stunningly beautiful fairy in a painting.

She was originally a small one in his arms, but now she has grown up.

The former little darling is now a big girl.

Having grown to this extent, she didn't continue to grow, and temporarily stayed at this stage.

When Yue Yao woke up, she didn't seem surprised by her appearance.

She just glanced at her body slightly, then her pretty face blushed slightly, pulled the quilt over herself, and curled up in Jun Wuxie's arms.

“Yao'er, you stay in the room first, brother will go to the capital to buy you some clothes.”

Jun Wuxie smiled slightly.

Yue Yao has grown up, and her previous clothes have been torn apart, revealing large areas of her snow-white skin.

“Wuxie brother…” She took Jun Wuxie's hand and looked at him with some trepidation: “Do you like Yao'er like this now?”

Jun Wuxie was stunned for a moment, and smiled: “Of course I like it, no matter what Yao'er looks like, brother likes it. Besides, the former Yao'er was cute, and the current Yao'er is cute and beautiful.”

“Then… Yao'er will continue to grow up in the future, will you still like it then?”

She was a little scared in her heart, the current Wuxie brother has no memory of the past.

In his memory, she was four or five years old.

Now, she suddenly grew up, afraid that he would not be able to adapt and would not like her like this.

“I will always like it, don’t think wildly.”

Jun Wuxie kissed her smooth forehead before getting up and leaving.

When he arrived in the capital, he went directly to Juba斋, bought more than a dozen spiritual weapon dresses and shoes in one go, and then bought dozens of sets of close-fitting clothes in the tailor shop before returning to the sect.

When Yue Yao put on the dress he bought and stood slimly in front of him.

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but be a little dazed.

The current Yue Yao is so beautiful.

She chose the Riding the Wind and Flowing Clouds dress that Jun Wuxie had bid for at Juba斋 last time.

Wearing this dress, she is like a fairy who wants to ride the wind away.

Perfect face, star-like crystal eyes, extraordinary temperament, waist-length hair.

She stared at Jun Wuxie with happiness and a slight shyness, lightly biting her charming red lips.

She turned around in front of Jun Wuxie: “Wuxie brother, is Yao'er good-looking?”

“Good-looking, no one brother has ever seen is as good-looking as Yao'er!”

Jun Wuxie came back to his senses from the deep amazement, stepped forward and hugged her slender waist, and turned around twice in place.

In the next two days, Jun Wuxie stayed with Yue Yao, accompanying her, and watched all the scenery near Zongwang Mountain.

They watched the sunrise together, watched the sunset, watched the clouds rise and fall, watched the small bridges and flowing water, watched the waterfalls, and watched the flowing clouds like the sea…

Lingfei and Su Xiaoxiao had also recovered to their peak state.

They were deeply worried about Yue Yao growing up overnight, worrying that her recovery speed was too fast.

But in the past two days, seeing Yue Yao staying at the appearance of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl and not continuing to change, they were relieved.

They would always take advantage of the gap when Jun Wuxie personally went to the kitchen to make food for Yue Yao to mingle with Yue Yao and chat very harmoniously.

Su Xiaoxiao was like a little elf, the most active, treating Yue Yao as a peer.

Facing the lively and lovely Su Xiaoxiao, Yue Yao would always inadvertently reveal the eyes of an older sister looking at a younger sister, which made Lingfei on the side couldn't help but smile.

“Hey, Yao'er this girl has grown up, I'm really not used to it for a while, she used to be so cute.”

Jiu Ye sighed like this when eating.

“Yao'er is cute and beautiful now, why Jiu Ye do you dislike her?”

Jun Wuxie was unhappy, and took the braised pork that Jiu Ye liked to eat to his own in one fell swoop, and said: “Jiu Ye, if you say that, I am not happy, I will punish you for not having braised pork to eat today!”

“You brat!” Jiu Ye immediately blew his beard and stared, and said: “You are almost a wife-protecting demon, how can you be like this? I just sighed, and you are anxious with me, do you have a wife and no elders?”

Everyone looked at them like this, couldn't help but smile, and laughed.

Yue Yao looked at Jun Wuxie with a happy face.

She likes this feeling so much.

She thought of the past, when she was wronged in the family, Jun Wuxie forcibly broke into Shenyue City and confronted a group of strong men in her family alone.

At that time, she felt that his back was so tall and straight, as long as she stood behind him, no matter where she was, she felt extremely at ease.

Xu Daoling and Kongxu kept silent, lowering their heads and honestly digging the rice in their bowls.

The muscles on the faces of the two twitched from time to time.

Just yesterday, they just teased Yue Yao as a little girl as usual.

As a result, Jun Wuxie chased them around Zongwang Mountain for hundreds of laps, beating them to death, almost deformed!

Until now, they feel that their bones are sore as if they are falling apart.

Having women means no humanity!

This is their unanimous evaluation of Jun Wuxie!

Too ruthless!

He simply didn't treat them like human beings!

“Okay, seeing you pitiful, I’ll give you a piece to eat!”

Jun Wuxie put a piece of fatty meat into Jiu Ye's bowl, which made the muscles on Jiu Ye's face twitch a few times, and he snorted and gulped a large gulp of strong wine.

Uncle Bird's expression was a little dignified, and said: “Your realm has improved so quickly these days, both my uncle and I are very pleased, but you must not slack off because of this. In another two or three months, it will be the day of your life-and-death duel with the disciples of the Dahe Sword Sect.”

“What are you afraid of? Just do it!” Xu Daoling said with a face full of ferocity: “By that time, we hope to step into the Star Realm, are we still afraid of the people from the Dahe Sword Sect? This time, we must kill them all on the life-and-death stage and let the Dahe Sword Sect kneel and send those senior brothers and sisters back!”

“The grave robber is right, we are not afraid of them with our current strength!”

Kongxu touched his bald head, full of confidence.

“Things are not as simple as you think.” Jun Wuxie shook his head and said: “Looking at Uncle Bird’s dignified appearance, the life-and-death duel three months later may be different from any previous duel. The opponents we have to face may not be from the Dahe Sword Sect at all.”

“You heartless kid is still meticulous.” Jiu Ye glanced at Jun Wuxie, and then said: “In the previous trials, we offended the Qingshan Sword Sect and the Kaitian Sword Sect. They are afraid of the prestige of the Bing Sheng senior and dare not openly bully others, but they will never give up!”

Xu Daoling raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: “Jiu Ye, are you saying that they will intervene in our life-and-death duel with the Dahe Sword Sect?”

“It is very possible. If there are no accidents, within these two months, the Dahe Sword Sect will successively have many so-called disciples with extremely high talents out of thin air. How can the Qingshan Sword Sect and the Kaitian Sword Sect be willing to suffer such a loss?”

“Isn’t this bullying?” Kongxu said indignantly: “The Qingshan Sword Sect is a high-level force, and the Kaitian Sword Sect is even a dominant-level force. They would actually send people to pretend to be disciples of the Dahe Sword Sect to duel with us?”

"You're right, they are bullying people, but what can we do?" Old Jiu shook his head and said, "This world is a jungle where the strong prey on the weak. As the strong, they have the confidence to do whatever they want. Moreover, this isn't blatant bullying, but something done in secret. It's useless for us to protest; they'll have their own excuses!"

Lingfei suddenly said, "I have some cultivation methods here that are suitable for them to practice. Perhaps they will be helpful for the life-and-death duel in three months."

Old Jiu, Uncle Bird, Xu Daoling, and Kong Xu were all stunned.

"Your opportunity has come. Why don't you quickly thank Lingfei?"

Jun Wuxie was pleasantly surprised, not expecting Lingfei to take the initiative to impart cultivation methods.

She used to be a strong cultivator from the Upper Nine Heavens, so the cultivation methods she offers must be of a high level.

Xu Daoling and Kong Xu came back to their senses and quickly expressed their gratitude.

Lingfei pointed towards their inner hearts, imprinting a cultivation method in each of their minds.

"Divine Wind Art!"

"Golden Divine Art!"

Xu Daoling and Kong Xu were shocked by the cultivation methods in their minds.

Such cultivation methods are too profound and intricate. They can only understand the initial chapters, but even so, they deeply perceive the power of the methods!

Moreover, these two sets of cultivation methods perfectly correspond to their bloodline characteristics, fitting them perfectly!

Old Jiu and Uncle Bird were shocked when they heard the names of the cultivation methods.

"Thank you, Senior Lingfei, for bestowing the cultivation methods!"

Amidst their shock, they immediately expressed their thanks.

In the past, they thought that Lingfei was a maidservant taken in by Jun Wuxie and shouldn't be a strong cultivator.

But at this moment, they realized that Lingfei's background was extremely astonishing.

Any cultivation method that dares to bear the word 'Divine' must be an ancient and extraordinary technique!

"You two don't need to be so polite, and don't address me as 'Senior'. Lingfei's only identity now is the young master's maidservant. You two are both elders of the young master, so addressing Lingfei in this way makes Lingfei feel very uneasy."

"Old Jiu and Uncle Bird can just call Lingfei by name from now on." Jun Wuxie said, then paused slightly before continuing, "I have to go to Southern Domain Ancient City, and I can't delay any longer."

"Go ahead. We'll leave Yueyao here at the sect and protect her well. You can rest assured," Old Jiu said.

"No, Yao'er will go with me. However, I'm worried that things haven't been peaceful lately, so you need to be more careful. If you find strangers appearing near the sect, as long as they don't attack anyone from our sect, don't pay them any attention!"

"Strangers?" Old Jiu heard the hidden meaning in his words and asked, "What exactly is going on?"

"I've been targeted by the Soul Hunting Hall. I'm worried they'll come to the sect to investigate my whereabouts. They probably won't attack you, since their target is me. So, as long as they confirm that I'm not in the sect, they'll leave. If you attack, that would be standing against the Soul Hunting Hall, and the consequences would be very serious. I can handle my own affairs; you can't get involved!"

Soul Hunting Hall?

Old Jiu's expression changed drastically!

Uncle Bird and the others frowned slightly, seemingly unaware of the existence of the Soul Hunting Hall.

"We understand," Old Jiu nodded. He didn't say much about the matter, only asking, "When will you go to Southern Domain Ancient City?"

"Today, I guess." Jun Wuxie looked at the midday sun and said, "Some things should be prepared, and there's no time to lose."

After he finished speaking, he returned the remaining half bottle of Spring of Life to Uncle Bird.

"Take it with you. Going to Southern Domain, you might need it."

Jun Wuxie shook his head, insisting on stuffing it into Uncle Bird's hand, saying that he had Lingfei by his side and didn't need the Spring of Life.

These rare springs should be left at the sect and used by Xu Daoling and Kong Xu when necessary.

"Be careful. We won't say much else," Old Jiu and Uncle Bird patted him on the shoulder.

"Eldest Brother, take care!" Xu Daoling and Kong Xu looked reluctant, then added, "When you come back, bring us a few four-star spiritual weapons."

The corners of Jun Wuxie's mouth twitched slightly.

These two guys were quite sentimental at first, but their true purpose was revealed in the second sentence.
