Qin Jun turned his head and saw an immensely huge firebird soaring up from the clouds.
Its wingspan seemed to cover the sky, and the fierce wind it stirred up even moved the flying islands along its path. The howling wind made Qin Jun shield his face with his arms.
It was the Vermilion Bird, a divine beast!
Qin Jun squinted his eyes. The massive firebird soaring into the sky was indeed the Vermilion Bird, even larger than the guardian deity of the Southern Zhuo Dynasty. Wherever it passed, high temperatures swept through, causing most cultivators to break out in a sweat.
"Why has a Vermilion Bird appeared?"
"Don't be so surprised. There are plenty of divine beasts in the Holy Dynasty, and there are even dragons!"
"Is it true? Is the Holy Dynasty that powerful?"
"The Holy Dynasty controls divine beasts strictly for the purpose of controlling the dynasty. Without divine beasts, a kingdom cannot advance to become a dynasty."
The cultivators on the flying island were discussing animatedly. Those elderly people who had visited the Holy Dynasty multiple times now displayed a sense of superiority.
Qin Jun listened to these voices and suddenly realized why divine beasts were so hard to find. It turned out that they had all been collected by the Holy Dynasty. It was truly ambitious.
But if he were the Holy Emperor, he would probably do the same.
Those in power always suppress their subordinates to prevent them from threatening themselves, especially in subordinate states.
The Vermilion Bird flew away quickly, and with a flap of its wings, it disappeared into the sky.
"Should we catch a few divine beasts before we leave?" Qin Jun said with a smile.
The children of the Four Divine Sects and the White Fierce Tiger, who possessed the bloodline of divine beasts, were temporarily unable to awaken their bloodlines. Moreover, the awakening stones had been taken by the system, so those people could only be nurtured as talents.
Old Master Yi sneered, "What's so fun about divine beasts?"
In his eyes, divine beasts were no different from demonic beasts, except for having more luck. Now that he was no longer the Demon Emperor, he no longer valued luck so much.
Qin Jun couldn't be bothered to deal with him and continued to walk forward.
According to the instructions in the Holy Emperor's jade slip, he had to report to the Holy City next. There would be special people to receive him, and then he would wait quietly for the arrival of the Observation of the Heavens Assembly.
In fact, the Holy Emperor even wanted someone to bring Qin Jun directly to the Holy City, but he felt that doing so would be undignified, so he had to give up.
After entering the market, Qin Jun asked the Nine Spirit Yuan Saint to inquire about the direction to the Holy City.
He suddenly noticed that many hot gazes were focused on Chang'e around him. The appearance of the Moon Goddess was so stunning that ordinary people naturally couldn't resist it.
Chang'e snorted coldly, and the cultivators who stared at her felt their blood surging and their souls trembling, quickly retracting their gazes.
Gasps of surprise came from the surrounding area. Obviously, the cultivators had not expected that this stunning woman would have such cultivation.
Old Master Yi cursed, "What are you looking at? Be careful I pluck out your eyeballs."
He didn't care at all and directly cursed, which immediately angered many people.
Chang'e and the others couldn't afford to provoke them, but an old beggar, could they still be afraid of him?
"You stinky beggar, watch your mouth! I'll pluck you alive!"
"Hmph, does such a person even deserve to come to the Holy Dynasty?"
The cultivators angrily scolded. If it weren't for the consideration that private fights were prohibited on the flying island, Old Master Yi would have been surrounded and attacked.
Old Master Yi was indifferent, picking his nose with disdain on his face. Clearly, he could destroy the entire flying island with a single breath, but he deliberately provoked the enemy.
It seemed that this guy had a big playful heart.
And so, Old Master Yi began to argue with a group of cultivators.
Qin Jun watched the show and couldn't be bothered to intervene. Soon, the Nine Spirit Yuan Saint returned with a young man. It was not uncommon to see demon kings in the Holy Dynasty, but they generally didn't dare to be arrogant. After all, in the Holy Dynasty, the human race's status was higher than that of the demon race, and even demon kings were nothing more than slaves.
"Let me go! You are defying the Holy Law!"
The young man in the grip of the Nine Spirit Yuan Saint shouted. He was dressed in coarse cloth and looked like a menial laborer, but he dared to be so arrogant in the face of a demon king, showing how deeply ingrained the arrogance of the people of the Holy Dynasty was.
"Take us to the Holy City, or else you die!"
The Nine Spirit Yuan Saint exerted a slight force with his right hand, causing the young man's neck to ache. His hands frantically struck the Nine Spirit Yuan Saint like cat claws, not because he was brave, but simply a reflex action.
Qin Jun smiled and said, "Don't squeeze him to death."
Before coming, he had stated his bottom line: no indiscriminate killing. Whoever dared to obstruct him would be eliminated directly, without considering the Holy Emperor's anger.
Qin Jun was waiting for the Holy Emperor to be provoked, turning the two sides into hostile parties, and then he could complete the mission!
At this moment, the soldiers gathered one after another. Private fights were prohibited on the flying island, and the regulations were strict, not even considering the identities of the two sides.
"Stop! Let him go, or we will execute you on the spot!"
A burly man in black heavy armor shouted in a deep voice. He seemed like a towering iron tower standing in front of the soldiers.
Qin Jun just smiled and didn't say anything.
The Nine Spirit Yuan Saint snorted, "I asked this guy how to get to the Holy Dynasty, and he directly insulted me. Does such a person deserve to live?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of all the cultivators became strange.
It was a rule in the Holy City that demon beasts were not allowed to enter. It was said that the current Holy Empress did not like the demon race, so the Holy Emperor had issued this decree.
This lion demon actually wanted to go to the Holy City, which was simply seeking death.
The Nine Spirit Yuan Saint, with the face of a lion and the body of a human, was easily recognizable.
"Let's go!"
Qin Jun didn't even look at the flying island soldiers. He turned and said, and no one objected. The Nine Spirit Yuan Saint directly stirred up a demon wind, enveloping everyone and flying away at an astonishing speed.
The soldiers didn't have time to react, including the man in black armor.
The onlookers looked at each other in surprise. Someone actually dared to ignore the Holy Law?
"Send a message to the Lord of the Floating City to pursue and kill this demon and his companions!"
The man in the black armor spoke in a deep voice, "This area of the flying island is collectively known as the Floating City, one of the major teleportation areas of the Holy Dynasty. If anyone dares to cause trouble here, they will not have a good ending, no matter how strong they are."
As he spoke, the man in black armor took a bead from his helmet, which recorded the faces of Qin Jun and others.
At the same time, in the demonic wind, a young man in plain clothes shivered in fear and looked at the Nine Spirit Saint, saying, "Please don't kill me... please don't kill me..."
"As long as you guide us to the Holy City, you will be released," Qin Jun said indifferently.
He didn't want to follow the rules all the way. If he did, it would waste a lot of time.
Upon hearing Qin Jun's words, the young man in plain clothes finally looked at him. He didn't expect the one in charge to be this young man, not the lion demon.
"Who are you exactly?" the young man in plain clothes asked through gritted teeth. The other party dared to ignore the holy law, either having the capital to be arrogant or being brainless.
Having lived in the Floating City for decades, he rarely encountered brainless people.
Qin Jun ignored him and sat down to practice on his own.
Old man Yi smirked and walked up to the young man in plain clothes, making him shiver in fear.
"Let me have some fun with you," Old man Yi rubbed his hands. He was joking, but it made Qin Jun and the Nine Spirit Saint twitch at the corners of their mouths.
At the same time, streaks of rainbow light were chasing after Qin Jun and the others, each no weaker than the realm of true immortals, their auras gathering together, extremely terrifying, sweeping away the clouds.
