I'm Already A Great Emperor, And The System Wants Me To Be The Heroine's Lackey? - Chapter 43

The day soon arrived for the disciples of the affiliated sects to enter the outer sect.

The process for affiliated sect disciples entering the outer sect was divided into two main parts. The first part involved the disciples from the affiliated sects sparring against each other to determine the top ten.

The top ten disciples could then challenge the inner sect disciples of the Xuantian Holy Land. Success in these challenges would grant them direct entry into the inner sect.

Jun Jiuxiao was torn about whether to bring Ji Lanqing along. He didn’t want her to see the male lead.

However, knowing that Lin Chen was now stinking, he decided to take Ji Lanqing along. If she could develop a liking for the stinking Lin Chen, he would simply kill this guy to free him from his misery.

The sooner Lin Chen died, the sooner he could queue up for reincarnation. But Jun Jiuxiao, being the kind person he was, couldn’t bear to let Lin Chen go through that. He’d rather just shatter Lin Chen’s soul and be done with it.

Having made up his mind, Jun Jiuxiao called Ji Lanqing to join him—not to show off, but to preside over the event where the affiliated sect disciples would enter the outer sect.

Upon seeing Ji Lanqing, Jun Jiuxiao noticed that the redness on her face had decreased, indicating that her Red Lotus Karma Fire was awakening.

Once the Red Lotus Karma Fire fully awakened, Ji Lanqing would transform into an otherworldly beauty, and at that time, who knows how many suitors would be lining up for her.

But then again, he had already claimed the first prize—he had touched and seen everything that needed to be touched and seen.

He wasn’t sure how much weight he carried in Ji Lanqing’s heart, but today seemed like a good opportunity to test it.

Ji Lanqing was filled with happiness today. The Holy Son was presiding over the affiliated sect disciples’ entry into the outer sect, and he brought her along. Was this his way of publicly acknowledging her? She felt so blissful and found herself falling even more in love with him.

Moreover, he personally brought her along and let her stand on his flying artifact. The Holy Son was truly wonderful.

Jun Jiuxiao didn’t know Ji Lanqing’s rich inner emotional world. He had merely brought her along because she was only at the Organ Refining stage, her cultivation level was too low, and it would be too much trouble for her to walk there. He certainly wasn’t going to walk alongside her.

Seeing Ji Lanqing at the Organ Refining stage today, Jun Jiuxiao couldn’t help but grumble inwardly. Ji Lanqing’s talent for cultivation was simply too high.

She cultivated as easily as drinking water. In less than two months, she had advanced from Qi Condensation to Organ Refining. Even though she had access to the resources he provided, it was still outrageous, only slightly less impressive than himself.

When Jun Jiuxiao arrived with Ji Lanqing, it caused a stir. No one had expected the Holy Son of Xuantian himself to attend such a small event like the entry of affiliated sect disciples into the outer sect.

Jun Jiuxiao naturally took the main seat, with Ji Lanqing standing behind him.

The crowd below began to murmur.

“Is this the Holy Son Jun Jiuxiao, who made the Ji family unable to lift their heads? He looks like a refined gentleman.”

Today, Jun Jiuxiao wore a white robe, and his hair was left unbound, cascading freely behind him. He appeared every bit the graceful and elegant gentleman in white.

With a warm smile on his face, he exuded an air of calm and gentleness. Anyone who saw him would think he was a man of pure integrity and kindness, like a clear sky after a storm, gentle and as warm as jade.

“It’s definitely him. I’ve seen the recording stone that the Qin family sold. He’s the Xuantian Holy Son, Jun Jiuxiao. Alone with just one sword, he intimidated the younger generation of the Ji family to the point where they didn’t dare make a move. That line, ‘those of you who retreat now may live,’ was truly domineering.”

“I think the most impressive part was the few slaps to the Ji family members. That was so refreshing.”

“I envy the Holy Son’s maid. He fought against the Ji family alone out of anger to avenge her. It’s so enviable. If someone treated me so well, I would die without regrets,” a woman said in a nympho way.

“Look at yourself. Do you even deserve that? The Holy Son’s maid is the number one beauty in the Eastern Region. Only such a beauty is worthy of the Holy Son’s fury,” a man retorted to the nymphomaniac.

Another man echoed, “I really want to see the Holy Son’s maid, the most beautiful woman in the Eastern Region. It would be worth losing ten years of life just to catch a glimpse of her.”

The men around them also agreed, eager to see this most beautiful woman in the Eastern Region. However, since she stood next to the Xuantian Holy Son, the people below dared not look directly.

The elders leading the affiliated sects were seated below Jun Jiuxiao, and they too were curious about what this so-called number one beauty of the Eastern Region looked like.

Moreover, one of the top ten beauties of the Eastern Region, Fairy Miao Yin, was also present, so they were interested in comparing her beauty to that of this top beauty.

Even Fairy Miao Yin was also curious about the top beauty of the Eastern Region. After all, women are competitive by nature when it comes to beauty.

But when they finally saw the so-called number one beauty of the Eastern Region, everyone was astonished. Wasn’t she supposed to be the most beautiful woman in the Eastern Region? How could half her face be covered in a red birthmark? This… how could this be considered beautiful?

There must be a mistake. Maybe the Xuantian Holy Son hadn’t brought that maid with him after all.

The crowd exchanged glances but dared not ask any questions.

Jun Jiuxiao silently observed the elders or sect leaders from the affiliated sects.

He saw that the Ninth Sun Sect’s representative was Fairy Miao Yin, Lin Chen’s master, who was indeed a standard member of the male lead’s harem.

She was indeed quite beautiful, with a cold and aloof demeanor—she only ever smiled at the protagonist.

Jun Jiuxiao’s gaze lingered on Miao Yin for a few seconds longer, which was noticed by Ji Lanqing.

Ji Lanqing observed Fairy Miao Yin closely, seeing a face that was both alluring and fox-like, yet she carried herself with a detached and proud air. This kind of woman was the most attractive to men.

This fox spirit from Nine Suns Sect dared to seduce the Holy Son? If I, Ji Lanqing, get the chance, I will definitely kill her.

Fairy Miao Yin also sensed the hostile gaze from Ji Lanqing and furrowed her brows, wondering why she had drawn the ire of this maid.

Jun Jiuxiao was not paying attention to the women’s drama. He was there to display his authority as the Holy Son and had no interest in such matters.

When the other disciples heard that the Holy Son had appeared at the event for the affiliated sect disciples entering the outer sect, they all rushed over. Who wouldn’t want to see the Holy Son who single-handedly suppressed an entire clan?

For the past hundred years, the Xuantian Holy Son had been in seclusion, never attending any events. Now that he had finally emerged, he immediately made a grand entrance by challenging an entire clan on his own.

The disciples of Xuantian Holy Land idolized Jun Jiuxiao to the extreme, and they all hurried over, eager to catch a glimpse of him.

The square quickly filled with people, and many more were still rushing in from all directions.

A few core disciples also came, though none from the Grand Elder’s faction were present.

Shen Qingyin, the eldest senior sister of Xuanyin Peak, also arrived.

Shen Qingyin initially did not want to come but was dragged by a few junior sisters. As the eldest senior sister of Xuanyin Peak with cultivation at the Void Dao realm, she was qualified to sit on the platform.

When Shen Qingyin reached the platform, she nodded at Jun Jiuxiao before taking her seat. Behind her, a few of her junior sisters sweetly called out, “Holy Son,” and gave him a respectful bow before sitting down behind her.

Jun Jiuxiao watched Shen Qingyin’s aloof demeanor—she acted as if she were worth a million taels. It was obvious that she was also destined to be part of the protagonist’s harem, Jun Jiuxiao could deduce it with his feet.
