Liu Yue concealed her aura and gave Sikong Di a cold look.
Emperor Sikong had never been looked at like that before, especially not by a little girl. He was seething with hatred.
This little brat is incredibly arrogant! Does she completely disregard him, the emperor?!
"Why did Xiahou Xuan get involved too?"
Amidst the crowd, Gu Feng muttered, "Ever since this guy's sister disappeared, he's been acting like a madman. What's he planning to do by taking that poisonous woman, Luo Yishui, away now?"
Gu Feng couldn't fathom how the young master of the prestigious Xiahou family could possibly have any connection with Luo Yishui, that poisonous woman.
That's really strange.
Because the Jun family won first place, the people who ultimately entered the Royal Secret Realm to retrieve the treasure were naturally members of the Jun family.
Bai Ling and the others, who were cursing and swearing just a moment ago, were now filled with shame.
"Young...Young Miss..."
Jun Liuyue raised an eyebrow. "I still prefer your unruly side."
Bai Ling: ...
...
"I never thought that one day I, Shi Hai, would be able to enter this royal secret realm."
Shi Hai was eager to try it out. His dream had always been to come and see for himself, and now it had actually come true!
Wipe your drool.
Shi Hai: ...
Miss, could you please not say these things when you're so excited?
Upon entering the secret realm, a swirling sandstorm swept over him. When Shi Hai opened his eyes again, he saw a demonic beast charging right in front of him.
"I...I'll go!" Shi Hai barely dodged the monster's attack, but his shoulder was still scratched, and he rolled twice on the ground.
The demonic beast emerged from behind the rock, glaring menacingly at the Jun family members.
"Didn't you say you came in to get some treasure?!"
"There are monsters here too!"
"Do you think that old bastard Sikong Tian would be so kind?" Liu Yue crossed her arms and summoned Xiao Bai.
They quickly dealt with the monsters, but Bai Ling's situation on the other side was not so good.
Chased around by demonic beasts, Jun Liuyue didn't intend to help them, after all, she wasn't a saint.
I love to die, I love to live.
Shi Hai scrambled to his feet, determined to follow Jun Liuyue and never let go, even in death.
...
"Father, Your Majesty, it was Luo Yishui who seduced me! Moreover, Jun Liuyue has been concealing her strength all these years; the Jun family did this on purpose!"
Sikong Yu said through gritted teeth.
If Jun Tianlan hadn't suddenly broken through to the peak of the Spirit King Realm, and if Jun Liuyue hadn't been able to cultivate and summon a beast spirit of the sub-divine beast level, Emperor Sikong would have already taken action against the Jun family.
However, it was precisely because he couldn't see through the current strength of the Jun family that Emperor Sikong hadn't eliminated them!
"What a cunning Jun Tianlan! He's been hiding so well, could he be plotting a rebellion?"
Emperor Sikong snorted coldly, thinking that a little girl dared to disregard him, and he wished he could immediately wipe out the Jun family.
At this moment, Emperor Sikong completely forgot that back then, Tianyan almost perished, and it was Jun Tianlan who led the troops to repel the enemy! Only then was Tianyan saved.
"Your Majesty, the Alchemy Sect can lend you a hand."
At this moment, Liu Ruyan walked in, followed by Old Qiu.
Liu Ruyan was elegant in demeanor, like a celestial being.
"Miss Ruyan".
“Your Majesty, you should know the strength of the Alchemy Sect,” Liu Ruyan said with a smile. “No matter how powerful the Jun family is, they are only supported by Jun Tianlan. If our Alchemy Sect is Your Majesty’s backing, what is there to fear from the Jun family?”
Upon hearing this, Emperor Sikong frowned. "Miss Ruyan, if you help me, what do you need me to promise you?"
"I enjoy talking to intelligent people," Liu Ruyan said with a smile. "I want everything from the Jun family."
Upon hearing this, his hand clenched tightly beneath the dragon robe's sleeve. "What Miss Ruyan means is..."
"As Your Majesty thinks, what Your Majesty wants is the Jun family's Xuanwu Army, while what I want is the Jun family's wealth."
The Grand Commandant is in a dilemma. The national treasury is empty. The reason he wants to target the Jun family is simply because he covets their wealth.
The Jun family is the most prestigious family in Tianyan, with wealth that even the Mu family cannot match. However, the Mu family has now declined, and it was the Jun family that brought about this decline.
In other words, the Jun family already harbored rebellious intentions and most likely already knew about what happened back then.
"Your Majesty can take your time to consider it. I will be traveling around Tianyan Kingdom for the next few days. Once Your Majesty has made up your mind, just let me know." Liu Ruyan smiled sweetly.
"Very well, why don't you stay at the palace, Miss Ruyan?" Emperor Sikong said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Liu Ruyan nodded in satisfaction.
After Liu Ruyan left, Sikong Yu couldn't help but ask, "Father, the Alchemy Sect..."
"If we can get rid of the Jun family, it's not impossible to cooperate with the Alchemy Sect." Emperor Sikong narrowed his eyes. Using the Jun family as a favor to give to the eldest daughter of the Alchemy Sect would be a sure-fire deal for the Tianyan royal family.
Old Qiu followed behind Liu Ruyan.
"Miss, do we really want to get involved in this mess?"
"Um."
Liu Ruyan nodded, her teeth itching with hatred as she recalled the scene from just now.
She thought Yin Ming would treat her differently because of her identity.
But the other party simply said "Get lost!"
When had she, the eldest daughter of the prestigious Alchemy Sect, ever suffered such humiliation? Moreover, this man possessed an imposing aura, even Elder Qiu was no match for him, yet such a man was actually subservient to a woman from a small family in Tianyan.
On what grounds? What kind of spell did that bitch cast on Yin Ming? If that's the case, then she'll destroy the Jun family!
Kill that little bitch, and you'll have no choice but to submit to her!
Liu Ruyan thought confidently, unaware that her decision would bring her utter destruction.
——
Within the Royal Secret Realm.
The demonic beasts were all devoured by the Taotie, and the remaining demonic beasts that wanted to attack were filled with fear.
He took off running.
As Jun Liuyue walked behind Taotie, a towering pagoda suddenly appeared before her, reaching into the clouds.
This is the true entrance to the Royal Secret Realm.
Liuyue pushed open the rusty bronze door and went inside.
The next second, a mysterious force dragged her into a black abyss. By the time Shi Hai ran over, Jun Liuyue had already disappeared.
Where are they?
Shi Hai wiped his forehead and looked around, but Jun Liuyue was nowhere to be seen.
This is not a spiritual realm; if you die here, you're truly dead.
"Could this be a trap deliberately set by the dog emperor?!" Shi Hai felt a chill run down his spine upon realizing this.
Boom! The ground suddenly shook violently, and a huge crack appeared beneath everyone's feet.
"careful!"
