Immortal of the Ages

Yun Xiao's eyes were cold and deep as he looked at the slightly flushed, panicked yet undeniably graceful face before him. He and Shen Nanyin were alone together, with no one to save her.

In a shameful posture, Shen Nanyin knelt straddling before Yun Xiao, her hands raised high over her shoulders, bound to her feet.

The battle armor before her lifted high, as if offering a precious treasure to Yun Xiao.

Her jade-like nose stood high and proud, her pupils trembling as she gazed at this white-robed youth. Though he seemed like a child to her, his intensely aggressive eyes threw Shen Nanyin's heart into disarray.

"I am the Young Dragon Consort of the Southern Divine Dragon Realm, noble and pure, and he is a lowly celestial slave. Even if he can't truly defile me, if he goes mad, he can still humiliate me!"

Though arrogant, Shen Nanyin was not without reason. Yun Xiao had directly killed Lei Ting and the others—a reckless desperado who cared nothing for consequences. The barefoot feared no one in shoes. For someone of her noble stature, even if his life were offered up ten times over, it still wouldn't equal one of her!

Thinking of this, Shen Nanyin drew upon the qualities honed from being frequently mistreated by the Young Dragon Lord—flexible and adaptable. She quickly shed her previous arrogance and haughtiness, her eyes filling with tears, appearing pitiful and touching as she said to Yun Xiao, "I admit your combat prowess and talent are astonishing. You're definitely among the top here in the Grand Assembly Arena. I truly underestimated you before and was disrespectful. I'm sincerely sorry!"

Yun Xiao stood before her, reaching out to tap the violently trembling curve of her battle armor, producing a thumping sound. He looked at Shen Nanyin's proud, high nose and asked with a smile, "You've insulted me so many times, and now with a few kind words, you expect me to let you go? Isn't that a bit naive?"

"I was wrong!" Shen Nanyin, true to her training under the Young Dragon Lord, was wildly arrogant when rampant and thoroughly meek when cowed. She stared at Yun Xiao's hand—that hand made her fearful. If they were alone, it might be fine; no matter how audacious a celestial slave was, he couldn't truly cost her anything.

More critically, women like her from the Southern Divine Dragon Realm—qualified to be legitimate wives of prestigious families—were bound by noble taboos. Even being touched once would ruin Shen Nanyin's life in the eyes of the prideful Young Dragon Lord.

Her heart pounded wildly as she desperately tried to calm herself, softening her demeanor as she gently persuaded Yun Xiao, "I apologize for offending you earlier! Honestly, with your talent, you don't need to risk your life for the Harmony Divine Palace. They emasculated you; they wronged you terribly. Now that the Harmony Divine Palace is at a dead end, why not let me introduce you to the Southern Divine Dragon Realm? I assure you, you can receive the treatment of a top genius! There's no need to waste your life for those women who hurt you."

"Finished talking?" Yun Xiao tugged on the black dragon chains, wrapping them around her entire body. The chains encircled her jade-like neck, sinking into the immortal armor, making her figure even more striking.

"Wait! There's more!" Shen Nanyin gasped nervously, on the verge of tears. She choked out, appearing utterly sincere, "We'll discuss what happens after the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects later. For now, I can offer you my Personal Pledge. From now on, I'll follow your commands. Is that acceptable? You want to oppose the Young Dragon Lord, and with it, I can help you!"

"Your Personal Pledge?" Yun Xiao pulled on the black dragon chains, pinching her chin. His thumb pressed into her red lips as he spoke coldly, "You say I'm a lowly celestial slave that you all despise, and you're just the Young Dragon Consort with no real authority. After the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects ends, how could I possibly be welcomed with open arms?"

If Yun Xiao really believed her, he'd be a fool.

Such feuds, once started, wouldn't end unless Yun Xiao's talent was so formidable that it truly scared the Southern Divine Dragon Realm. And Yun Xiao had yet to truly reveal his hand…

"T-that's why I'm offering you my Personal Pledge! I'll help you and those snake women. It also follows the rules!" Shen Nanyin hurriedly responded.

"You're treating me like a fool again." Yun Xiao smiled coldly.

"What?" Shen Nanyin was stunned.

Yun Xiao pinched the corner of her mouth, twisting her lips into a pout, stripping the noble and pure Young Dragon Consort of her dignity and grace.

He looked into Shen Nanyin's wide, staring eyes and said calmly, "A Personal Pledge might work for most people, but not for you. Once I have your pledge, if you attack me, you can eliminate yourself and escape danger, right? The Southern Divine Dragon Realm doesn't lack women like you." Ṙ

Shen Nanyin's thoughts were easily pierced, her mind went blank, unable to think of another way. She could only pretend to be pitiful and choke out, "So, what do you want to do?"

"I don't believe in rules. I only believe in myself."

As Yun Xiao spoke, the Corona above his head suddenly flashed, transforming into a massive Primordial Sphere that engulfed both him and Shen Nanyin. The Primordial Sphere continued to swirl and solidify, becoming as impenetrable as a copper wall, creating a sealed space within the starry expanse.

This pure white Primordial Sphere not only blocked the view of Si Ji not far away but also obscured the screen of the Million Starlight Palace!

This was indeed astonishing!

The designers of the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects had meticulously accounted for people trying to act in secret, making it very difficult for young people to keep secrets within the surveillance of the Grand Assembly Arena.

But Yun Xiao had done it!

After all, their location wasn't on the Taiyi Sourcecore; it was remote, and the recording formation wasn't strong.

At the moment the white wall obscured people's vision, Shen Nanyin's panicked voice echoed from within the Primordial Sphere.

"What are you doing? Ah! Ah! No! Please! Stop! Wuuu..."

The Primordial Sphere, accompanied by Shen Nanyin’s hysterical, despair-stricken cries, truly swayed like a balloon in the starry expanse.

Such delicate sounds reached the Grand Assembly Arena, making it hard for anyone not to imagine what was unfolding inside…

“Yun Xiao!”

Not far away, the beautiful Diva with white hair and pink eyes clenched her fists tightly. Her face, more stunning than Shen Nanyin’s, was covered in frost.

She didn’t know why, but suddenly she was furious, so angry that she almost broke the rules to extinguish the Primordial Sphere!

For the sake of the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm, she restrained herself!

She could only hide here, seething with anger, listening to Shen Nanyin’s cries inside the Primordial Sphere—from sharp, desperate screams to strange murmurs and sleepy mutterings.

It was as if she had fallen into a dream, and the sounds sparked endless imaginings.

Meanwhile, inside the Primordial Sphere, Yun Xiao was somewhat speechless.

“Are you crazy?” Yun Xiao had merely transformed the Prison Warden Sigil into a spirit state, activated the Soulfire Eye at his brow, to brainwash her and plant a genuine Personal Pledge. But seeing the Young Dragon Consort cry like that made it easy for outsiders to get the wrong idea.

It was truly embarrassing!

Now that Yun Xiao had become an Anima Immortal, with the formidable Buddha's Treasure Spirit, he directly used its soul power to power the Soulfire Eye. The violet dragon light from the Soulfire Eye shone closely into Shen Nanyin’s eyes!

At first, the violet light caused her soul great pain, which was why she screamed so miserably. As the Buddha's Treasure Spirit fully integrated, she fell into a trance, beginning to murmur and hum softly, as if drunk in a dream.

As time passed, her tense, delicate body gradually relaxed, softening down. Her eyes showed a drunken expression, and within her pupils lay the head of her spirit.

Yun Xiao gradually inscribed the mark of the violet nine-headed dragon. Perhaps because she possessed dragon blood, this soul invasion went quite smoothly.

“A complete puppet would be easier to expose. I’d better leave some of her true nature intact.”

Thinking of this, Yun Xiao removed the mark of the violet nine-headed dragon from one of her eyes. Once the mark was lifted, Shen Nanyin’s entranced, pretty face finally regained some of her own will.

“You!” Shen Nanyin awoke, clutching her battle armor while staring at Yun Xiao with a heart-wrenching glare.

Upon realizing her armor was intact, she froze, then looked at Yun Xiao with confused eyes, shifting between anger and intoxication.

“Call me master,” Yun Xiao said.

“Master, ma—”
