#2216 - Childhood Stories
Back to the city at the forefront.
Changying carried dozens of heads, dripping blood all the way, attracting the attention of countless people in the city.
"The heads that Guard Captain Changying is carrying seem to be the prestigious figures from those major forces in the main city!"
Someone recognized them, immediately causing a burst of exclamations.
Soon, the people were in an uproar.
For so many years, the main city behind them had almost completely isolated their city.
They were desperately defending the city here, fighting against the darkness, but not only did they not receive any support, but they were also targeted.
The people of this city had long hated those forces to the bone, wanting to drink their blood and eat their flesh at all times!
However, those forces were too powerful, and War Immortal took the overall situation of the borderlands into consideration, and had been tolerating them, without taking action against them.
This anger had been pent up in everyone's hearts for decades!
Now, seeing the prestigious figures of those forces being beheaded, they all felt extremely relieved and cheered.
On the street, countless people came to watch, following Jun Wuxie and the others all the way.
More and more people gathered, and the wide street was crowded, with a sea of people stretching as far as the eye could see.
They arrived at the city gate.
Changying stopped and turned to look at the people who had followed.
"Everyone, today is a good day.
For many years, we have been guarding the forefront of the borderlands, shedding so much blood, with so many warriors dying on the battlefield, their bodies incomplete, all for the sake of guarding the gate of our world!
But after the marshal and generals of the main city died in battle, the Nightmare Clan, the Yun Chong Ancient Family, the Iron Wall Divine Clan, the Burning Incense Ancient Temple, the Great Spirit Mountain Temple, the Great Yan Divine Dynasty, the Earthly Fiend Divine Sect, the Xuan Serpent Divine Dynasty, the Wu Meng Ancient Family, and other forces, took control of the borderland main city.
Not only did they not support our city at the forefront, but they also suppressed and targeted us openly and secretly, which is extremely hateful!
Yesterday, I went to the main city to ask for help, and the prestigious figures of the various forces made me kneel under the city!
They are not humiliating me, Changying, but humiliating War Immortal, humiliating all of us who are resisting the darkness on the front lines!
War Immortal's son, Young Master Jun, and the Moon Goddess of Divine Moon City, angrily killed the prestigious figures and asked me to bring these heads back and hang them on the city wall!
Tell me, is it satisfying or not!"
"Satisfying! Of course, it's satisfying!
We have endured this anger for decades!
Those beasts enjoy peace, but not only do they not give us support, but they also target us everywhere, they should have been killed long ago!"
"Guard Captain Changying, you said War Immortal's son?"
People came back to their senses and looked at Jun Wuxie, all eyes focused on him.
"He looks like him, so much!
No! No, that's not just looking like him, he is him!
The supreme youth of that year, the peerless genius who shook the stars!
Young Master Jun is still alive, it's really a blessing from the heavens for War Immortal!"
"We have met Young Master Jun!"
The people's voices were uniform, and they were very respectful.
This person was not only the strongest genius in the starry sky back then, but also the only son of War Immortal!
This city has been able to hold on for so many years, all thanks to the power of War Immortal.
If it weren't for War Immortal, the city would have been breached by darkness long ago!
"Everyone, there's no need to be so polite."
Jun Wuxie looked at the residents of the city, in fact, everyone was a warrior.
Everyone was wearing armor or battle clothes, but their armor and battle clothes were very old, and they had been mended countless times.
From this, it can be seen how difficult this city is and how scarce the supplies are.
"Young Master Jun, you are a legendary figure.
We heard about your deeds back then and saw your images!
It's just that we heard that you were besieged by powerful people from various forces and died.
Heaven has eyes, you are still alive, a genius as amazing as you should not have died."
"Everyone is praising me too much, back then I was just so-so in the Supreme Divine Realm, actually very average."
"Young Master Jun is really humble, if you were considered average back then, wouldn't everyone of the same generation as you be trash?
By the way, we heard that the Dark Camp has issued a challenge again, wanting to have a battle of geniuses with us, is that right?"
Jun Wuxie nodded, "That's right, that's why Changying went to the main city to ask for help."
"I'll sign up, Young Master Jun, count me in!"
A pale-faced young man walked out, with patches on his battle clothes.
The patches on the damaged parts were obviously made of different materials than the battle clothes.
Obviously, there was a shortage of materials here, and the same materials could not be found, so other materials could only be used to repair them, and the quality was not as good as the original materials of the battle clothes.
Otherwise, even if the materials were different, they could be well integrated, without leaving obvious patches.
"No, you have old injuries, how can you participate in the battle of geniuses again?"
"Young Master Jun, Moon Goddess, Guard Captain, please let me participate!
My brothers all sacrificed in previous battles of geniuses, the reason I keep this life is to avenge them!
As a descendant of the Nine Constant Gods of the borderlands, it is our duty to kill darkness and win glory for the borderlands.
Anyway, this injury will not heal.
Besides, there are not many young geniuses in our city who can fight, I at least still have the strength to fight!"
His eyes were firm, but he was already in tears.
The geniuses who sacrificed in previous battles of geniuses were all playmates who grew up with him.
They practiced together, killed enemies on the battlefield together, talked about cultivation together, drank wine together, and imagined the future together.
But as the brothers around him died one by one, those childhood dreams had long been shattered.
He no longer thinks about the future.
He only asks to be able to go to the battle of geniuses again, kill the geniuses of the dark world, avenge the dead brothers, and live up to a lifetime of brotherhood!
"Young Master Jun, Goddess, Guard Captain Changying, we request to fight!"
Several young men and women walked out of the crowd, all with patches on their armor, pale faces, and unhealed old injuries.
"You…"
Tears welled up in Changying's eyes.
She knew that if she agreed to them participating in the war, they would never be able to come back alive.
"I understand your feelings, and I also understand your determination and courage.
However, I will not agree to let you participate in the battle of geniuses!
Not to mention that you have old illnesses, even in your prime, the chances of winning are extremely low.
When we fight against the darkness, unless we have no other choice, we must never fight against them with courage and blood alone.
For this battle of geniuses, you only need to watch, I will fight alone, that's enough!"
"What? Young Master Jun wants to fight against the geniuses of the Dark Camp alone?"
"Young Master Jun, think twice."
"This is not allowed, Young Master Jun, your current realm seems to be not as good as it was back then.
We don't know what happened after you 'fell' back then.
It caused your realm to be not as good as it was then.
Your current aura should not have entered the Divine King Realm, right?
The geniuses of the Dark Camp, each of them has the cultivation of the Divine King Realm, and the Forbidden Divine Domain is very terrifying!
You alone, facing ten of them, means that you will be fought by them in a wheel war, without even time to rest, and they may even launch an attack on you!"
"I know they are Divine Kings, killing Divine Kings is not difficult.
You can rest assured, on the day of the duel, everyone only needs to watch."
Jun Wuxie said, walking to the young men and women, flicking a few drops of blood, which submerged into their bodies.
In an instant, brilliant golden light bloomed on the young people, and vigorous and unmatched life surged in their bodies, rushing to the limbs and bones, and there was also an unspeakable source of power flowing.
"Thank you for your great kindness, Young Master Jun!"
The young people were shocked and excited by the vast life essence in their bodies.
After thanking Jun Wuxie, they immediately sat down and began to heal their injuries.
"Everyone, let's disperse, don't disturb them from healing, but someone has to stay and protect them. Changying, let's go back to the temple."
Jun Wuxie said, and left here with Yue Yao, Qingyue, and the Little World Tree.
Changying casually threw the heads towards the city gate.
More than twenty heads were deeply submerged on the city wall, lined up in a row, neatly arranged.
Immediately, she took a few female guards and hurried to catch up with Jun Wuxie and the others.
"Lord Jun, why did you decide to fight against the Dark Geniuses alone, I can also participate in the war."
Before returning to the temple, Qingyue finally couldn't help it.
"There is no need, one person is enough.
Why let you also become a thorn in the eyes of the dark creatures?
They have penetrated this world very deeply, being targeted by them is not a good thing, it will cause some trouble to growth.
"Then what about you, you only think of me, but what about yourself?"
"My identity is exposed, I will become a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their flesh.
Besides, I am better at dealing with them than you.
You should practice hard and don't cause trouble."
Jun Wuxie didn't want her to be noticed by the dark creatures.
Although Qingyue has shown terrible potential, her previous life's memories have not been awakened.
Obviously, her previous life's Dao Fruit still believes that she in this life has not reached the point of awakening her memories.
In this state, Qingyue's bloodline potential cannot be maximized.
Her growth space is still very large, especially in terms of cultivation methods and secret arts, as well as her state of mind.
Although Yue Yao is protecting her.
But in the current situation of the Divine Ancient World, Yue Yao may not be able to guarantee that she will be by Qingyue's side at all times.
"Sister Qingyue, whatever Wuxie-gege says is what we should do, we shouldn't question his decision."
Yue Yao pulled Qingyue from Jun Wuxie's side to her own.
Qingyue was stunned when she heard this, and then hurriedly defended: "I didn't question Lord Jun's decision, I just… anyway, I didn't mean that…"
"Wuxie."
At this moment, Jun Yu'nuo's voice came from inside the temple.
"Mother, you're out of seclusion?"
Jun Wuxie's face lit up with joy. He vanished from his spot in an instant, arriving inside the Divine Hall.
He saw his mother sitting on the divine throne at the very top of the hall, with Qin, Qi, Shu, and Hua standing on either side of her.
The vitality and spirit of each of them were much more vigorous than before.
Especially his mother, whose aura was several times stronger, her eyes even deeper and more profound, seeming to pierce through one's soul with a single glance.
"Mother has broken through to the third level of the Eternal God Realm!" Jun Wuxie ascended the steps, sitting down next to his mother on the divine throne. He carefully examined her and said with delight, "Mother seems to be on the verge of breaking through to the Second World Eternal God Realm?"
"Yes, I am indeed about to break through. It shouldn't take too long now.
It's just that I don't have enough time at the moment to seclude myself and focus on breaking through to the Second World Eternal God Realm.
I didn't expect it to be so soon.
The Eternal God's cycle domain is extremely difficult to cultivate. I thought it would take at least several hundred years.
The Eternal God Forbidden Pill you gave me is truly a peerless divine pill, its effects are astonishing.
I'm actually starting to feel very curious about that secret realm.
My precious son is truly amazing. You've only been in the secret realm for a short time, and you've obtained not only enough resources to satisfy your own cultivation, but also so much extra. Your mother is enjoying the good life thanks to her precious son."
"Oh, so now I'm your precious son? Not your stinky son anymore?"
"The son my mother gave birth to is, of course, precious! Other people's sons are stinky, you're fragrant, okay?"
"..." Jun Wuxie was speechless. "Then please don't call me stinky son in the future."
"What? Do you have a problem with that?"
Jun Yu Nuo looked at him with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, and extended her slender, snow-white hand, "What if Mother wants to pinch your ear?"
Jun Wuxie immediately choked.
He suddenly slumped onto the chair, looking completely resigned, "Pinch away, who told you to be my mother? You don't care about me anyway."
"Alright, Mother can't bear to pinch your ear.
Don't put on such a pitiful act.
Tell me, when has Mother ever pinched you hard? I've never used any force, okay?
You were just a stingy little kid when you were little. You would cry as soon as Mother touched your ear."
Qing Yue in the hall chuckled.
"What are you laughing at? Don't laugh!"
Jun Wuxie glared at Qing Yue, his face reddening. He looked at Jun Yu Nuo indignantly, "Mother! Can you please not bring up embarrassing things from my childhood!
Was I being stingy?
You were clearly pretending to be fierce, making me sad, okay?"
"But do you know that when Mother was fierce with you, I was even sadder than you?
You were so naughty when you were little, almost dying with Yao'er in the incomplete formation..."
Remembering the events of that year, Jun Yu Nuo still felt afraid.
That time, she almost lost her precious son.
Fortunately, they were found at the last moment.
The scene at the time, even thinking about it now, still cut her heart like a knife.
Within that formation, space and laws were extremely special. Cultivators trapped within would feel hunger just like mortals, needing to eat to replenish energy and maintain vital functions.
Her precious son had cut off so many pieces of his own flesh to save Yue Yao.
He was only five years old at the time, so ruthless to himself!
"Mother, don't talk about it. What's the point of mentioning the past?"
Jun Wuxie hurriedly winked at his mother.
Jun Yu Nuo snapped out of her memories and realized that Yue Yao, standing in the Divine Hall, was already in tears.
"Yao'er, don't cry. Mother didn't mean to bring up the things of the past, and I've never blamed you."
Jun Yu Nuo stepped forward and embraced Yue Yao, comforting her softly.
In fact, she really had blamed her back then...
At that time, seeing her son covered in blood and on the verge of death, her heart was broken, almost collapsing.
Looking at the little girl who had survived by eating her precious son's flesh and blood, unharmed except for some weakness, and then looking at the miserable state of her son.
At that moment, as a mother, her heart...
Later, she loved the crow and its nest, thinking that her son was willing to cut off his own flesh for Little Yue Yao, treating her so well. How could she blame her for this? Wouldn't that be going against her own son?
So, she quickly adjusted her mentality and treated Yue Yao even better.
From that time on, she had already regarded Little Yue Yao as her daughter-in-law.
Little Yue Yao would definitely marry her precious son when she grew up.
No one should even think about snatching her away!
The Divine Maiden of Divine Moon City was undoubtedly the most dazzling pearl of the God-Ancient, how could she be given away to someone else?
Qing Yue remained silent on the side.
She occasionally looked at Jun Wuxie.
Ever since she met this man in the Lower Realm, he had always been resolute, strong, and domineering.
It was really hard to imagine that such a man, the Lord of Two Realms, the peerless hero who swept away the doomsday torrent, actually had such a side to him.
In front of Aunt Jun, Divine Jun was too different. There was no way to connect him with the great and majestic figure who faced billions of dark creatures alone.
