This ti, they had co to the Void Heaven Realm rely for a training expedition, hoping to stumble upon so fortuitous opportunity along the way.
But instead, they had unexpectedly run into Jiang Luoli.
That aura imdiately caught their attention.
"Miss, don't make things difficult for us. Co with us, and you'll only stand to gain."
The one leading them was a young man, judging by his voice.
Yet his tone carried an unmistakable sense of superiority, as though he were looking down on her.
It wasn't unlike the way the Cang Clan people spoke.
"I am a mber of the Primordial Jiang Family. Who exactly are you people?"
Jiang Luoli activated the power of her Primordial Spirit, and a brilliant radiance burst forth.
She was on guard.
Because she couldn't figure out where the other party ca from.
"Just co with us, and you'll find out."
The lead man finished speaking and unleashed his technique.
A chain-like weapon was summoned by him, coiling like a great dragon wreathed in immortal energy, actively surging toward Jiang Luoli to bind her.
It was unmistakably a Primordial Spirit weapon driven by soul force.
A Primordial Spirit weapon, as its na implied, was a weapon centered on the Primordial Spirit that could be used for either attack or defense.
Such weapons required many rare and precious materials to refine, making them far scarcer than ordinary divine weapons.
In a sense, Jun Xiaoyao's Chaotic Ancient Emperor Talisman was also a Primordial Spirit Emperor weapon that guarded the Primordial Spirit.
And at this mont, the chain the young man had summoned was a Spirit-Binding Chain, specifically designed to capture and restrain Primordial Spirits.
Jiang Luoli's beautiful eyes blazed with fury.
Were they treating her like livestock, trying to capture her?
Boom!
Jiang Luoli ford seals with her jade hands, sending brilliant immortal dao seals blasting out as she engaged this group of mysterious individuals in battle.
She possessed the Primordial Spirit Immortal Body and had even inherited an entire Primordial Spirit Realm.
The Jiang Luoli of today was no longer that useless little short-legs.
The two sides clashed fiercely.
But what puzzled Jiang Luoli sowhat was this.
The techniques these mysterious individuals used were very strange, and didn't quite seem like the techniques of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
"Just who are these people?" Jiang Luoli was utterly bewildered.
She couldn't imagine that within the Immortal Academy's sacred grounds, a group of people with such mysterious origins had managed to intrude.
Jiang Luoli was no weakling, but that group was also cultivated to an impressive level.
And they held the advantage in numbers on top of that.
For a lone woman to have held her own against this group of mysterious individuals for so long was already remarkable.
In the end, the lead young man's eyes flickered with a sharp gleam, seizing the mont when the others were suppressing Jiang Luoli.
He made his move, using the Spirit-Binding Chain to ensnare Jiang Luoli's delicate figure, wrapping her up like a rice dumpling.
Jiang Luoli's pretty face was filled with killing intent, like a cat with its fur standing on end.
As the beloved treasure of the Jiang Family, when had she ever been treated this way.
Even Jun Xiaoyao doted on her to no end.
When had Jiang Luoli ever suffered such an indignity?
"Miss, we truly an you no harm. It's simply that there is sothing about you that has drawn our interest."
"That's right, we have no intention of hurting you. We only need to verify certain things."
This group of mysterious individuals slowly closed in.
"All of you, back off!" Jiang Luoli snapped.
Regardless of whether this group's intentions toward her were good or ill, she didn't care.
Even if she was only in her Primordial Spirit form right now, she didn't want that group getting too close.
"Rest assured, we only wish to probe the fluctuations of your Primordial Spirit. After all, your true self is still outside the Void Heaven Realm."
The lead man smiled faintly and reached out his hand, about to grab Jiang Luoli.
And it was at that very mont.
The man suddenly felt an extre, bone-deep cold.
That cold was as if in the warmth of early spring, a blizzard had suddenly descended out of nowhere, freezing all living things in place.
His gaze shot upward.
And he saw that transcendent figure standing in the void, white robes purer than snow.
A pair of cold, deep eyes, like those of a god, stared down at him with an icy gaze.
The man's body began to tremble faintly, as though he had been locked onto by so supre and terrifying existence.
"Xiaoyao gege!"
Jiang Luoli's expression lit up with surprise and delight, though a hint of sha crept in as well.
She hadn't expected to disturb Jun Xiaoyao after all, making him co to her rescue.
Jun Xiaoyao looked toward that group, his expression utterly indifferent.
The heart of the lead young man tightened.
He had just heard the way Jiang Luoli addressed him, and his heart sank.
"Xiaoyao… could it be that one…"
He was no fool, and a na ca to mind — one that carried considerable weight even in their own world.
"You are Jun Xiaoyao of the Jun Family?"
The lead young man's brow furrowed, and though he was guarded inside.
He appeared on the surface not to be overly wary of Jun Xiaoyao.
Their origins were enough to afford them that kind of composure.
Jun Xiaoyao said nothing, his expression blank.
Though they hadn't brought any tangible harm to Jiang Luoli.
In Jun Xiaoyao's eyes, daring to lay hands on his woman was itself an offense punishable by death.
It seed the man sensed that trace of killing intent in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
The lead young man hurriedly spoke up: "Jun Xiaoyao, even though your na resounds far and wide and you are called the foremost of the younger generation in the Immortal Domain, we co from the Nine Heavens…"
But before the man could even finish his words.
Jun Xiaoyao struck directly, extending two fingers as a sword.
A seemingly ordinary streak of sword light erged, as though reflecting all the heavens and ages, sweeping toward that group of people.
"I don't care who you are. All I care about is that you dared to touch my woman, and for that you deserve to die."
One streak of sword light passed, and there was nothing left.
Previously, when Jun Xiaoyao had used the move "As I Slash," he had directly annihilated even the beings of the Cang Clan.
Though this group's origins were also extraordinary, they still fell short when compared to the Cang Clan.
So without any suspense whatsoever, the Primordial Spirits of these individuals were directly extinguished, reduced to nothingness.
On the other side, Jiang Luoli's heart was filled with warmth and sweetness.
Jun Xiaoyao's domineering declaration had sent Jiang Luoli's sense of security soaring.
"Xiaoyao gege!"
Jiang Luoli's delicate figure was still bound by the Spirit-Binding Chain, round and plump like a little silkworm, and she wriggled her way over toward Jun Xiaoyao.
Seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao's originally blank expression faintly broke into a slight smile.
Jiang Luoli really was an endearing little treasure.
The way she looked just now, like a little silkworm, was simply adorable.
"Xiaoyao gege, stop staring!" Jiang Luoli blushed a little, pouting coyly.
Her embarrassing state had been witnessed by Jun Xiaoyao.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled and shook his head, deciding not to tease Jiang Luoli any further, and directly shattered the Spirit-Binding Chain.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoyao gege, I've made you co to my rescue again." Jiang Luoli felt quite ashad and embarrassed.
"It's fine. The fact that you held your own against that group for so long is already impressive. Do you know where they ca from?" Jun Xiaoyao said, his gaze deep and thoughtful.
"Where?" Jiang Luoli asked with the curiosity of an eager child.
"The Nine Heavens Returning Void, a forbidden clan." Jun Xiaoyao said.
Outside of that, he couldn't think of any other identity that group could hold.
"So they really were people from above the Nine Heavens."
No wonder that when she had told them she was a mber of an ancient primordial clan, that group had seed entirely indifferent.
If they were a forbidden clan from above the Nine Heavens, then indeed they had no reason to fear the ancient primordial families.
She also understood now why she had felt all along that the techniques those people used didn't seem like techniques from the Immortal Domain.
It turned out they were beings from above the Nine Heavens to begin with.
