Villain: Starting with a Flawless Body, Born Invincible

35: Wild Aunt, the Fang Family’s Trump CardFollowing Chu Yuxi, he arrived at a courtyard.

This courtyard was also on a Floating Island, but it was very close to the God Tablet Platform Floating Island, though it seemed to be in the opposite direction of the Divine Son Hall.

Because he had been delayed for a while with Lin Qingxi, he could see Chu Yuxi from afar, sitting gracefully in the lake pavilion, poised before a zither table, her posture elegant and her Aura cold and aloof.

However, at this moment, her gaze was downcast, and she stared blankly ahead, lost in thought, though she didn’t smile, her surrounding Aura softened as if spring snow was melting.

But if one looked closely, a hint of sorrow could be seen.

”Perhaps she’s thinking of someone?”

Jun Lingxiao thought as he walked over and sat opposite her.

He casually turned his head and then realized.

Sitting in this pavilion, one only needed to tilt their head slightly to see the God Tablet Platform clearly, a surprising coincidence.

”I hope you voluntarily give up the position of Divine Son.”

After Jun Lingxiao sat down, Chu Yuxi spoke, her clear, cold voice carrying a hint of undeniable authority, but when she looked at Jun Lingxiao’s small face, a flicker of distraction passed through her icy eyes.

She was clearly looking at him, yet it was as if she wasn’t, but rather seeing someone else through him.

This scene struck Jun Lingxiao as somewhat inexplicable, but it also proved one thing.

She was indeed here to cause trouble.

”Why?”

Jun Lingxiao replied.

”Divine Son, this is not just a title, but also a position, a very dangerous one.”

”You’ve seen what happened with the Fang Family; as long as you remain in this position for a day, there’s an extra day of danger.”

Chu Yuxi sighed slightly as she spoke, appearing as if she was considering Jun Lingxiao’s well-being, but her words were a bit ridiculous.

”You’re trying to mislead me.”

Jun Lingxiao said very directly: ”The Fang Family actually didn’t make a move against me; on the contrary, I was the one who struck first and exposed their infiltrator. If it weren’t for me, the Fang Family might have truly carried out some plan of theirs.”

”So, what you’re saying is complete nonsense.”

”Instead, I heard that you’ve always wanted to ascend to the position of Divine Son. Could it be that you’re saying this out of jealousy?”

Jun Lingxiao’s current status was incomparable; more and more Disciples admired him, and the Old Ancestor favored him increasingly. Coupled with his inherent status as Divine Son, under these circumstances, he could practically walk sideways in the Jun Family.

The First Dao Child’s strength was indeed the most powerful among her peers, but... she was merely one of the Ten Paths.

Compared to him, the Divine Son, it was not enough.

He should be the one in control.

”You are indeed very clever.” Chu Yuxi’s previous serious Aura suddenly dissipated, replaced by a gentle demeanor, as if she were looking at a close relative.

She chuckled softly, then leaned her upper body slightly forward, no longer sitting primly, but resting her fair arms on the zither table before her, looking at him with kind eyes, even chuckling softly from time to time.

’If the hard approach doesn’t work, she’s going for the soft one?’

Jun Lingxiao thought, but the next words Chu Yuxi spoke made his jaw drop.

”Actually, I’m kind of your maternal aunt.”

”Maternal aunt?”

Jun Lingxiao was somewhat shocked, but the Chu Yuxi in front of him didn’t seem to be lying.

Chu Yuxi nodded, looking at Jun Lingxiao with a bewilderment he didn’t understand: ”Jun Lingxiao, anyone can take the position of Divine Son, but you alone cannot.”

”Consider it your maternal aunt begging you, please don’t be this Divine Son, okay?”

Her words were soft and gentle, spoken with the tone of coaxing a child, and... a mysterious emotion.

”Why?”

Jun Lingxiao asked subconsciously.

He could tell that his maternal aunt in front of him truly didn’t mean to harm him, but he didn’t understand what she meant either.

”I can’t say...” Chu Yuxi sighed softly, her expression somewhat melancholic.

”Jun Lingxiao, I believe you can be a competent Divine Son, even overly competent. In the future, your name will resound throughout the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, standing tall and proud, with the phrase ’Who in the world does not know Jun’s name’ spreading far and wide.”

”You will also become a Dao beacon, taking one step at a time, leading countless people down a path no one dared to imagine.”

”But I still hope you don’t become this Divine Son...”

Chu Yuxi’s brows were furrowed downwards, her eyes sincere, giving off a feeling of being pitiful and endearing.

But Jun Lingxiao still refused.

He was a Transmigrator, thinking more than others, and looking at his convenient maternal aunt, a guess gradually formed in his mind.

She... could she be Reborn?

”Am I doing well?”

Jun Lingxiao looked at Chu Yuxi and asked tentatively.

”...”

Although the words were contradictory, Chu Yuxi understood.

Upon hearing this, she almost burst into tears for a moment, eventually showing an expression uglier than crying, and choked up: ”Not well... not well at all...”

She kept repeating this sentence, only saying that Jun Lingxiao should not be the Divine Son, but she wouldn’t say anything more.

After considering it, Jun Lingxiao still refused. No matter what the future held, the present was now.

In the end, Chu Yuxi didn’t insist, only giving Jun Lingxiao a storage wristband as a gift.

Only now did Jun Lingxiao realize that although there were sodium rings, those were things used in the Lower Thousand Realms and Middle Thousand World. What they used most in the Upper Thousand Realms were these storage wristbands. With a flick of the wrist, things could appear in hand, and they could also enhance the user’s strength.

Jun Lingxiao put the wristband on his left hand and admired it carefully, finding it very beautiful.

https://img.wtr-lab.com/cdn/series/aMxWHNKKaQ60HDAfqx5xv2M6ORKQTxjgPLNJDgHZMjQ.pngLook at the wristband, not the hand.

Golden hollowing out (openwork), shimmering with flowing light, adorned with countless emerald green gems, and a larger one in the very center. Just wearing it on his hand, without even activating it, he could feel a continuous stream of some Qi nourishing his body from within, and the space inside was even larger than the jade pendant given by the Old Ancestor!

”Do you like it?”

Chu Yuxi’s voice suddenly rang in his ear. The two were very close. Jun Lingxiao subconsciously reached out to push her away, wanting some distance. However, as soon as his hand extended, she suddenly grabbed it tightly, with such force that he couldn’t break free.

”Maternal aunt?”

Upon hearing this, her hand paused, but she still didn’t let go. She only held Jun Lingxiao’s hand and pulled it to her eyes. After quietly looking at it for a while, he heard her voice.

”How wonderful.”

Chu Yuxi’s voice suddenly became hoarse, like the murmur of a nightmare.

”It’s really good, isn’t it?”

She seemed to be saying the wristband was good, but Jun Lingxiao knew that wasn’t it.

Their current posture was very strange; they sat together, very close, her hand tightly gripping his, not letting go no matter how much Jun Lingxiao struggled, and her eyes, filled with a smile, stared intently at him.

It was clearly a scene of deep familial affection, yet in Jun Lingxiao’s eyes, he felt a chill.

Something felt wrong... But thankfully, this posture didn’t last too long. Chu Yuxi let go and said that this was her residence, inviting him to visit often, and offering to guide Jun Lingxiao in Cultivation.

It was also at this time that he realized his convenient maternal aunt had hidden her Realm; she was not merely at Spirit Sea Level 3, as outsiders rumored, but had reached Spirit Sea Ninth Realm! It was simply terrifying.

Meanwhile, deep within the Fang Family Forbidden Ground.

An eighteen-year-old youth sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, clearly Cultivating.

Runes floated around him, and golden light faintly seeped from his flesh. His muscles were strong and powerful, clearly full of strength.

When he sensed someone approaching, he let out a long breath, then opened his eyes to look at the old man in front of him, calling out: ”Grandpa.”

”Hmm... It seems your progress is swift. Indeed, imparting cultivation is faster, but you must also be careful in absorbing it, otherwise, your Qi will be chaotic and your Foundation unstable.”

”There’s already a result from the Jun Family’s side; all the chess pieces we planted have been rooted out, but it wasn’t without Harvest (gain).”

”To think that a living Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo truly appeared; no wonder they sought our cooperation.”

”Fang Sheng, Cultivate diligently. The only opportunity is the Jun Family Divine Son’s tenth birthday banquet. There must be no mishaps then.”

The old man examined the youth’s cultivation with satisfaction, then nodded and instructed.

At eighteen, he had reached Spirit Sea Level 4, even surpassing the Jun Family’s First Dao Child. Although it was due to a powerful expert imparting cultivation, it also showed the youth’s special Physique.

The Hundred Tribulation Heavenly Sacred Body, one of the Ten Great Sacred Bodies, individuals with this Physique find Breakthrough difficult but Cultivation extremely easy. Its most Heaven-Defying aspect is the ability to directly absorb external Dao power and convert it into one’s own. Therefore, the Cultivation of this Physique can be described as skyrocketing, and it is also the Fang Family’s trump card.

Fang Sheng looked at his grandfather with some hesitation, but finally asked:

”Grandpa, I don’t quite understand. If that Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo is truly related to the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Gate, wouldn’t it be better to let him grow up?”

”Even if we and the Jun Family are sworn enemies, once the Divine Gate opens, our Fang Family might also produce an Immortal Emperor...”

”Shut up!”

Before Fang Sheng could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the old man, who roared: ”Even if our Fang Family can produce an Immortal Emperor when the Divine Gate opens, what about the Jun Family? Is there hope for the Jun Family Old Ancestor to also become an Immortal Emperor? Wouldn’t we still be forever suppressed? Moreover, I dare say that the first thing the Jun Family Old Ancestor would do upon becoming an Immortal Emperor is to destroy our Fang Family!”

”It’s long been impossible for our Fang Family and the Jun Family to reconcile. If it weren’t for outside help, we wouldn’t have this opportunity.”

”Whether the Divine Gate is real or fake is unknown. Be it a chess piece, or being used as a pawn, Fang Sheng, this is a huge opportunity!”

”If the Jun Family doesn’t have an Immortal Emperor, then it’s fine, our Fang Family still has a chance. But if the Jun Family truly produces an Immortal Emperor, then the Jun Family will truly overshadow everything! At that time, everything will be lost.”

”In short, prepare well. Five years from now, at that Divine Son’s birthday banquet, intercept and kill him! Don’t worry about exposure; others will assist you at that time. You only need to focus on improving your strength.”

Fang Sheng’s eyes flickered as he listened to these words, clearly convinced, and finally nodded.

At the same time, he also understood that although both were Sacred Bodies, his Hundred Tribulation Heavenly Sacred Body clearly had an advantage in Cultivation. Coupled with the fact that he had received Cultivation from a powerful expert since childhood, and had been hidden for more than ten years, it was all for that moment.

Even if the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo was Heaven-Defying, with careful preparation, there shouldn’t be too many unexpected events.

Fang Sheng believed that since they were both Sacred Bodies, they were on the same starting line. Plus, he was born earlier and had received Cultivation from a powerful expert, which already put him too far ahead. But he would never understand that the gap between Sacred Bodies could not be bridged in just a few years.

And he also didn’t know that Jun Lingxiao had not only a Sacred Body but also a System!

This was something Fang Sheng could never have imagined.

The Fang Family had superiors, but the Jun Family had none.

The Jun Family was already one of the Three Heavens, the supreme among the Ten Chiefs, and Jun Lingxiao’s mother’s side, though slightly inferior, was also among the top five of the Ten Chiefs.

The nurturing from two great Families was countless times more powerful than any Cultivation imparted by an expert!
