"You want to follow me?" Jun Xiaoyao was slightly surprised.
He truly hadn't guessed Jun Linglong's thoughts.
Becoming a follower was a very common occurrence.
Behind each of the Jun family's ten Sequences, there was a group of followers with extraordinary strength.
They were either prodigy disciples from within the Jun family or talents recruited and tamed from the outside.
In short, every peerless figure would cultivate followers, who would become an important force in the future.
Even his father, Jun Wuhui, had once had a group of followers, known to the world as the Divine King's Eight Legions, each capable of holding their own, truly peerless heroes.
It wasn't that Jun Xiaoyao hadn't considered it, but he was only three years old now and in no hurry to recruit followers, so he hadn't paid it any mind.
"Why?" Jun Xiaoyao was curious.
Was it just because he broke the Myriad Ages Extreme Realm?
"A kind of intuition," Jun Linglong said, her beautiful eyes deep.
That glimpse of the future, she couldn't conveniently speak of it, because if she did, she would very likely have to bear some enormous karmic consequence.
Jun Linglong couldn't yet bear such consequences.
"Intuition?" Jun Xiaoyao was speechless.
He also sensed that Jun Linglong probably knew something but didn't say it explicitly.
However, he had occasionally heard things about Jun Linglong.
Born with a Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, her mind was quick and intelligent, and she was a step ahead in comprehending any cultivation technique or martial art.
If she didn't fall prematurely, she was destined to become a Saint in the future.
Such a heaven-gifted proud lady would be the center of attention wherever she went and was indeed qualified to follow Jun Xiaoyao.
"Right now, Grandpa takes care of my daily life. Besides teaching me the Dao, he just nags me to grow up and expand the Jun family line..." Jun Xiaoyao felt helpless inwardly.
Although he only looked three years old on the outside, his mind had long since matured. Facing a stuffy old man all day, even if it was his own grandfather, would be very dull.
"Having Jun Linglong as a maidservant to attend to daily life wouldn't be bad either," Jun Xiaoyao thought.
He hadn't thought about cultivating Jun Linglong or anything, but if she were to be a maidservant, it would be acceptable.
If outsiders knew Jun Xiaoyao's thoughts, they would surely want to beat him to death.
To actually want a heaven-gifted proud lady, admired by all and the center of attention, to be a maidservant?
One must know that even prodigy Sequences like Jun Zhangjian only wanted to rope in Jun Linglong to become a fellow cultivator.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao was about to speak, a female voice came.
"Jun Linglong, you're actually taking the initiative to follow someone else?"
The one questioning was precisely Lan Qingya.
She didn't dare to offend Jun Xiaoyao, so she could only direct her words at Jun Linglong.
"What's wrong?" Jun Linglong said indifferently.
Facing Jun Xiaoyao, she would be nervous and tense, but towards Lan Qingya, she felt no restraint.
"Young Master Zhangjian personally spoke, wanting to recruit you, but you refused. And now you take the initiative to follow another. Where does this leave Young Master Zhangjian's face?" Lan Qingya's face was ugly.
Wasn't Jun Linglong's action a blatant slap in Jun Zhangjian's face?
"Jun Zhangjian is excellent, but the one I, Jun Linglong, will follow will be an existence that suppresses an entire era!" Jun Linglong's tone carried a trace of fervor.
"Heh... Suppress an era? Are you by any chance referring to him?" Lan Qingya blurted out subconsciously, speaking without thinking.
"Hmph, where did this ill-mannered thing come from!"
Before Jun Xiaoyao could say anything, Jun Zhantian's eyebrows shot up, and he flicked his sleeve!
Pfft!
Lan Qingya's delicate body was sent flying, crashing heavily to the ground, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.
This was only because Jun Zhantian, considering his status, couldn't be bothered to kill Lan Qingya.
"If there's a chance in the future, I would like to spar with elder brother Zhangjian. As for you, scram..." Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.
He couldn't even be bothered to act against such a minor character.
Lan Qingya's face turned deathly pale. She looked at Jun Linglong, a trace of unwillingness in her eyes, then turned and left.
Jun Linglong paid no mind, instead, her gaze was fixed on Jun Xiaoyao, her beautiful eyes actually revealing a hint of a pitiful look.
If it were any other male, they would have probably agreed impatiently long ago.
Jun Xiaoyao pondered for a moment before asking, "Do you know how to serve people?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
A dignified Jun family female prodigy, when had she ever served anyone?
Jun Linglong was also stunned for a moment, but she still nodded subconsciously.
She had to seize this opportunity.
"Alright, then I agree," Jun Xiaoyao said very straightforwardly.
Now, Jun Linglong and the people around them finally reacted.
So Jun Xiaoyao wasn't choosing a follower, but a maidservant.
Instantly, all the male prodigies present revealed looks of envy and jealousy.
Not just anyone could make Jun Linglong a maidservant.
Jun Linglong herself was also dazed for a moment. She, a dignified heaven-gifted proud lady, had really become a maidservant?
But thinking of that glimpse of the future, determination appeared in Jun Linglong's beautiful eyes.
She lightly parted her jade lips and asked, "Lord Divine Son has asked so much, so may Linglong also ask a question?"
"What question?" Jun Xiaoyao said.
"If Lord Divine Son becomes the Heavenly Emperor in the future, what then?" After Jun Linglong finished asking, her gaze was fixed, staring at Jun Xiaoyao.
Jun Xiaoyao was slightly愣 (taken aback), then smiled faintly and shook his head, "Very simple..."
"If I am the Heavenly Emperor, I shall suppress and kill all enemies in the world!"
Jun Xiaoyao's words fell.
Instantly, thunder boomed beyond the heavens, and the winds and clouds in the firmament roiled!
Words followed by law, causing heaven and earth to change color!
Everyone revealed expressions of horror; they had never seen such a scene.
Jun Zhantian also took a deep breath, his gaze无比 (incomparably) complex.
"Wuhui, your child, indeed, just like you back then, full of soaring ambition..."
Jun Zhantian knew that this sentence represented a great karmic consequence that had fallen upon Jun Xiaoyao.
At the same time Jun Xiaoyao spoke these words.
In a Life Forbidden Zone in the Immortal Realm, an incredibly ancient and hoarse voice came out.
"This generation of the Jun family, their ambition is not small, hehe..."
In addition, from an ancient spiritual mountain where divine phoenixes flew and true phoenixes circled, a cold, mocking laugh was heard.
"Suppress and kill all enemies in the world, heh... Has Jun Wuhui's descendant become this arrogant?"
From an ancient nest where dragon veins converged, indifferent words also came.
"The Emperor's Road will appear in this era. My clan's Long Aotian and other descendants will let ancient aristocratic families like the Jun family understand what it means for prodigies to bleed and for desolation to fill the eyes!"
Jun Xiaoyao probably never expected that a casual sentence he spoke would cause such a stir.
When he came back to his senses, he found Jun Linglong's gaze incomparably bright, staring intently at him.
"What's wrong?" Jun Xiaoyao touched his own face.
"Linglong is willing to follow Lord Divine Son!" Jun Linglong had completely made up her mind, no longer wavering.
From that one sentence, Jun Linglong understood many things.
Jun Xiaoyao nodded. The gains this time were indeed complete.
He signed in and obtained the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Force, broke the Myriad Ages Extreme Realm, and obtained the Heavenly Dao reward, the Chaotic Divine Millstone Visualization Method.
He even received three Immortal Divine Herbs as a reward from the Eighteenth Ancestor.
Finally, he even recruited a golden-haired girl as a maidservant. It could be said to be a perfectly successful endeavor.
