Oppression

"No!" Qin Jun stared seriously at Zhuo Junjie, making the latter bewildered. However, Qin Jun's next sentence almost made him spit blood: "I am Qin Jun of the Foundation Establishment Realm."

Pfft!

Damn it, it's all you!

Zhuo Junjie's eyes seemed to spew fire, but the mere Foundation Establishment Realm was beneath his dharma eye. He subconsciously looked at Daji behind Qin Jun, and his pupils contracted.

He found that he couldn't see through Daji at all!

"Did you cause the heavenly tribulation last night?" Chang Tianyou asked, standing beside a dozen elders, all glaring fiercely at Qin Jun and the others as if they wanted to eat them alive.

It wasn't their fault. They thought another Golden Core Realm expert had appeared in the sect, only to be tricked and have someone else benefit from their heavenly tribulation for free!

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

"I didn't expect it to cause a heavenly tribulation either," Qin Jun spread his hands, his innocent expression making Chang Tianyou want to slap him.

Chang Hao, standing nearby, couldn't help but sneer. Although he also believed the Xuanling Sect couldn't defeat Qin Jun, he could at least worsen the relationship between the Xuanling Sect and Qin Jun!

As the Third Prince, Qin Jun's future goal was undoubtedly the throne. He had inquired and learned that Qin Jun's relationship with the Fifth Prince Qin Yu was extremely poor, meaning there was basically no chance of an alliance with the Purple Light Sect behind Qin Yu. Now, by separating Qin Jun and the Xuanling Sect, he was essentially eliminating Qin Jun's potential support from two major sects!

As for the Burning Mountain Valley, Chang Hao would find a way to trip Qin Jun up later.

Thinking of this, a cold smile appeared on Chang Hao's lips, but it vanished as soon as he saw Chang Qianqian holding onto Qin Jun's clothes.

I will definitely cripple you!

Chang Hao roared in his heart. As if sensing his sinister gaze, Qin Jun suddenly turned and gave him a brilliant smile, startling him into quickly lowering his head.

"Do you know how much loss your heavenly tribulation last night caused to our Xuanling Sect?" Chang Tianyou asked in a deep voice, while also being very curious why Qin Jun could cause a heavenly tribulation. He could tell at a glance that Qin Jun only had the cultivation base of the fifth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Wait, fifth level of Foundation Establishment Realm?

Chang Tianyou's mouth twitched. He could naturally see that Qin Jun was only sixteen or seventeen years old. With such cultivation at such a young age, Xuanling Sect's most proud disciples, Zhuo Junjie and Zhong Ling, were not geniuses in front of him.

"I apologize," Qin Jun said solemnly, cupping his fists.

"Thank goodness, thank goodness..." Chang Qianqian couldn't help but pat her chest. She was most afraid that Qin Jun would get stubborn and clash head-on with Chang Tianyou.

"However..." Qin Jun suddenly changed the subject, making Chang Qianqian's heart rise again: "I saved your daughter and your disciple. Our debts cancel each other out, how about that?"

Was the Xuanling Sect's annual Spirit Stone income less valuable than the Sect Master's daughter's life?

He had apologized, and he didn't intend to ask for any further rewards. He felt at ease.

"You..." Chang Tianyou was so angry his nose and eyes were bulging, and the elders behind him were even more furious.

Chang Hao couldn't help but grin from ear to ear. It was indeed the familiar Qin Jun.

"Yes, Father, let's just let it go. He's already apologized," Chang Qianqian walked up to Chang Tianyou and swayed his arm, saying with a smile, "Father, you don't know how much Qin Jun took care of me along the way. He even dared to kill Xiahou En!"

This girl deliberately brought this up to hint to Chang Tianyou not to get angry, implying that Qin Jun's side had strength comparable to the Xuanling Sect.

There were no more than three people in the Xuanling Sect who could kill Xiahou En, and in terms of life-and-death combat, these pampered cultivators were no match for a fierce general like Xiahou En.

Chang Tianyou was not foolish. Chang Qianqian's hint was so obvious, and even the elders secretly gasped, all looking at Qin Jun and Daji with furrowed brows. As for the Howling Celestial Dog, they completely ignored it.

"Sister Daji is a Void Transformation Realm expert," Chang Qianqian leaned closer to Daji, took Daji's plain hand, and said innocently.

Void Transformation Realm!

Chang Tianyou and the elders' mouths suddenly fell open. An old man with white hair trembled all over: "How is it possible? When did the Gan Yue Kingdom get a Void Transformation Realm expert?"

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

Having lived for nearly a hundred years, he knew very well the might of the Void Transformation Realm. He had once traveled outside the Gan Yue Kingdom and had the fortune to witness the terrifying power of a Void Transformation Realm expert, which was far beyond what Golden Core Realm or even Mortal Transformation Realm experts could compare to.

Xu Hai carefully examined Daji, and the more he looked, the more shocked he became, because he couldn't see through Daji's cultivation at all, as if Daji was just an ordinary person.

Enemies you can't see through are the most terrifying!

Chang Tianyou frowned and asked, "Qianqian, are you telling the truth?"

As the Sect Master, he was one of the few who knew about the existence of the Void Transformation Realm and understood the great destruction such super experts could cause to the Gan Yue Kingdom. Facing such an expert, the entire Xuanling Sect combined was not enough for Daji to kill.

"Hehe, my Young Master has already apologized. I hope your esteemed sect won't force things, otherwise..." Daji covered her mouth and chuckled. As she spoke, she unleashed her terrifying aura, pressing down on everyone in the main hall as if they had been struck in the chest.

Except for Qin Jun and Chang Qianqian, everyone else's hearts were pounding. Chang Hao, Zhuo Junjie, Zhong Ling, and other disciples below the Golden Core Realm were all forced to their knees by Daji's aura.

So strong!

Zhuo Junjie and Zhong Ling's eyes widened. They never expected this stunningly beautiful woman to be so outrageously powerful.

Daji didn't continue to torment them and soon retracted her aura.

"My Daji has a bit of a temper, please forgive us," Qin Jun said with a smile, cupping his fists, which made Daji roll her eyes.

Chang Tianyou and the others' mouths twitched. Although they were angry, they were more shocked and relieved.

Fortunately, Chang Qianqian reminded them in time!

"Forget it! Let's just let this matter go!" Chang Tianyou waved his hand, putting on an air of magnanimity, which made Qin Jun want to laugh.

Chang Qianqian couldn't help but clap her hands in approval, then beckoned for both sides to go to a banquet.

Qin Jun directly refused, shaking his head. "Alright, I still have to be on my way."

After speaking, he turned and walked towards the exit of the main hall. Daji followed closely with graceful steps, and the Howling Celestial Dog wagged its tail, trotting along, no one able to connect it with a Demon King.

"Wait a moment!"

Just then, Zhuo Junjie suddenly spoke up. Qin Jun stopped in surprise and looked at him.

Is this guy an idiot?

Can't he see the situation clearly?

"We can forget about the heavenly tribulation, but I want to challenge you. You must have something special about you to be able to attract a heavenly tribulation!" Zhuo Junjie said, his eyes burning with intensity. He didn't feel ashamed at all that his peak Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation was bullying Qin Jun.

Chang Tianyou and the elders secretly cheered. If they let Qin Jun and the others leave like this, how would they be able to maintain their reputation in the future?

It would sound bad if word got out!

If Zhuo Junjie defeated Qin Jun, and stopped at the right moment, it would at least allow the Xuanling Sect to save some face.
