Chu Jun stubbornly shook his head. He gently pushed Du Wu's hand away and stood up straight. He calmly wiped away the blood on his face. Du Wu couldn't help but secretly pinch his sweat. This bastard really didn't know whether to die or not.

Du Zhenwei's expression was gloomy as he said coldly, "Since you are able to withstand 70% of this continent's master's spiritual power, I will spare your life. However, I heard that you possess pills that can allow Foundation Establishment cultivators to advance to the Golden Core Stage!"

Chu Jun expressionlessly said, "That's right, but only late Foundation Establishment cultivators can use it!"

"Then hand over the recipe for the Spirit Pill!"

Du Wu's heart tightened, but to her surprise, Chu Jun cooperatively handed over the prescription and refining method of the Spirit Devouring Pill. Du Wu heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time, she peeked at Chu Jun's face. She realized that his expression was calm, and she could not tell whether he was happy or angry.

Du Zhenwei tossed the Spirit Swallowing Pill refining method to Du Wu and said, "Xiao Wu, take it!"

"Thank you father!" Du Wu took the gui jian and put it away.

Chu Jun cupped his hands and said, "What orders does Chongming King have?"

Du Zhenwei waved his hand and said, "It's alright. You can leave, Xiao Wu!"

Chu Jun's heart relaxed as he turned around and walked out of Limitless Hall!

Seeing Chu Jun's upright figure disappear outside the hall, Du Wu frowned and said, "Dad, didn't you promise your daughter not to make things difficult for him? You even forced him to hand over the Spirit Devouring Pill!"

Du Zhenwei smiled and said, "This Chu Jun is indeed a rare talent, but what's the use of a disobedient person? He has to pay equal attention to both kindness and might in his way of employing people. Sometimes, he has to humiliate his spirit. Only then can he be convinced!"

Du Wu helplessly said, "But this fellow is a master who eats softness and doesn't eat hardness!"

"That's because you're not tough enough. In front of a powerful deterrent, everyone has to lower their heads. You just saw that father told him to hand over the Spirit Swallowing Pill. He didn't dare to say a single word!" Du Zhenwei laughed.

"But he didn't give in when you asked him to reveal his cultivation technique!"

"That's because the pressure on him is not enough!" Du Zhenwei said disapprovingly.

Du Wu sighed and said, "Perhaps!"

Du Zhenwei smiled and said, "Little Wu, it seems that you really value that kid Chu Jun very much!"

Du Wu smiled bitterly and said, "Most likely, the reason why my daughter came back alive this time is because of Chu Jun. Before entering the 18th floor, my daughter was full of confidence. However, in reality, he is more like the leader of the entire team!"

Du Zhenwei said softly, "There's actually such a thing. From the looks of it, we really need to suppress him properly. Otherwise, father is afraid that you won't be able to control this kid!"

Du Wu hurriedly said, "Please don't. I'm afraid this will backfire. With his personality, my daughter feels that it would be better to be friends with him sincerely!"

Du Zhenwei frowned and nodded in the end, "What you said makes sense. This kid can risk his life to save someone. He is a man who values love and righteousness."

"So my daughter feels that being honest is better than being oppressive!"

Du Zhenwei laughed loudly and said, "Subduing people is a profound learning. Being able to trick people into going through fire and water for you is the highest realm!"

Chu Jun left the Taiji Palace with a calm expression. He could not tell whether he was happy or angry.

The Spirit Devouring Pill did not have the assistance of the Raging Sun True Fire. The success rate of the pill was not high. Even if it was handed over, it would not be a big deal. There was no need to anger Du Zhenwei for this. Thus, Chu Jun happily handed over the prescription and method of refining the Spirit Devouring Pill. Even so, Chu Jun was still very unhappy. He did not like the feeling of being controlled by others.

"I must become stronger!" Chu Jun clenched his fists.

Chu Jun's Cold Moon Art had already completed the fifth level, and the Blazing Sun Art was almost complete. In terms of overall strength, Chu Jun's current strength could be compared to early God Refining cultivators, but it was still far from being compared to Du Zhenwei's level.

Shortly after Chu Jun returned to his residence, someone immediately summoned him, saying that the continent lord had summoned him. However, this time, he had summoned all seven rising stars from the eighteenth floor. State Master Du Zhenwei publicly announced that he would make these seven people the guests of the Heavenly Policy Palace. It was not Chu Jun and the others' turn to decline.

This matter instantly caused quite a bit of shock. The people in the upper echelons were all experienced people, and they immediately sniffed out an unusual smell. One had to know that seven rising talents were the most promising talents in Chongming Island in the future. After all, they were already at the Nascent Soul Stage before they reached the age of thirty. They were very likely to break through to the Spirit Refining Stage or even the Spirit Concentration Stage. If such a group of talents were all appointed as guest ministers of the Heavenly Policy Palace, wouldn't that be equivalent to putting them all into Du Wu's faction? In this way, Du Wu's power would rise. For example, the First Prince's Divine Policy Palace, the Seventh Prince's Iron Policy Palace, and Du Wu's Heavenly Policy Palace would become tripartite.

In a room of the Heavenly Policy Palace, Chu Jun was lying on his back while Zhao Yu was sitting at the table. A pair of jade palms supported his cheeks. Yan Shui's blurry eyes looked at Chu Jun and asked, "Chu Jun, I really don't understand what the Lord of the Continent is thinking. Do you want to raise your three children to fight on the arena?"

"It's very simple. I just want my children to restrain each other, so as not to threaten his position as the sole leader of the family!" Chu Jun said indifferently.

Zhao Yu said incredulously, "If that's the case, then it's truly too terrifying. There is no mutual trust and love between relatives, and there is also intrigue. The Eldest Prince even wants to send someone to kill the main hall of the palace!"

Chu Jun sat up and nodded, "The most important thing is the Emperor's family. Power can often drive people crazy. Moreover, Du Zhenwei has so many children, and most of them are half-siblings. There is simply no family relationship between siblings!"

Zhao Yu looked at Chu Jun thoughtfully. Chu Jun felt a little guilty when he saw her beautiful eyes. He said embarrassedly, "Why are you looking at me like that? I only have you as my wife now!"

Zhao Yu smiled faintly and said, "Now? Then you mean that it will not end in the future?"

"Uh … you know that's not what I meant?"

Zhao Yu gently rolled her eyes at Chu Jun and said sarcastically, "I wonder who spent ten million spirit crystals to find out about Huang Bing?"

Chu Jun was immediately stupefied!

"Is Boss here?"

Right at this moment, Miao Kai's voice came from outside. Chu Jun couldn't help but exclaim, "Old Miao, you came in too timely!"

"Yes!" Chu Jun jumped down from the bed and stepped forward to open the door.

Miao Kai poked his head in and smiled at Zhao Yu. "Haha, sister-in-law, I'm not disturbing you, am I?"

Zhao Yu blushed slightly. Chu Jun knocked on this guy and said, "Cut the crap. What are you looking for me for?"

"It's like this. I'm going back to the sect to bid farewell to the boss!" Miao Kai smiled.

Right now, although Chu Jun and the others were crowned as guest ministers of the Heavenly Policy Palace, Du Wu did not restrict their freedom. She merely hung up her name and could still return to her own sect. However, if anything happened, she had to follow her orders.

Chu Jun frowned and said, "Didn't the first prince look for you?"

"No!" Miao Kai shook his head carelessly.

"Be careful. You used to be the eldest prince's man. Now that you've followed the palace hall, I'm afraid he'll cause trouble for you!"

"It's fine. It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that can't be avoided!"

Chu Jun patted Miao Kai's shoulder and handed him the Ring of Flames, which was the prize of the Rising Star Tournament, and said, "This Tier 5 Magic Treasure is for your self-defense. If you need anything, you can come to the Heavenly Phoenix Sect in Secluded Sun City to find me!"

Miao Kai nodded his head touched. He took the Blaze Ring and said, "Alright, as long as Miao Kai is still alive, Boss, if you have anything you need in the future, just say it!" After saying that, he patted his chest forcefully.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will!"

"Then I'm leaving. Take care, boss. Take care, sister-in-law!" Miao Kai clasped his fists with one hand.

Zhao Yu nodded gently, "Old Miao, be careful!"

"Save it!" Miao Kai put away the Scorching Flame Ring and was about to turn around to leave when a group of people quickly walked in from outside the courtyard.

"Chu Jun, I have some bad news for you!" Du Wu walked in first, followed by Ye Zhong, Luo Heng and the others.

Chu Jun was stunned for a moment before he said in a deep voice, "What is it?"

Du Wu winked at Dao Zheng Ming, the guest minister of the Heavenly Policy Manor beside her. The latter hurriedly went forward and said, "Not long ago, we received news from Serene Sun City that the Gong Clan seized a spirit mine of your Heavenly Phoenix Sect and killed and injured many people. Furthermore, the Ice Profound Sect and the Huanqian Sect seem to have coveted your sect!"

Chu Jun's heart trembled, and Zhao Yu's expression also changed!

"When did it happen?" Chu Jun clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on his neck rose up. A fierce murderous aura emitted from his body.

Dao Zheng Ming couldn't help but be secretly shocked. He remembered that the first time he saw Chu Jun, he was still at the early Gold Core stage. After a year, this group of people in front of him had already reached the Nascent Soul stage.

"About ten days ago, I heard that Huanqian Sect and the Ice Mysterious Sect came to the Heavenly Phoenix Sect to cause trouble not long ago. However, they seemed to have suffered some losses and retreated. As for how the Heavenly Phoenix Sect is doing now, no new news has been sent back!"

Chu Jun pulled Zhao Yu and ran out.

Miao Kai scolded angrily, "Damn it, I don't know whether to die or not. Boss, I'll go with you!"

Before Miao Kai could finish his words, Luo Heng had already taken the lead to catch up. He was an honest man and only moved his hands but not his mouth. Since someone had bullied his brother, he naturally raised his sword without saying a word.

Wei An and Zhen Yanshi also turned around and chased after him. The latter shouted, "Big brother, wait for little sister!"

Dao Zheng Ming couldn't help but be dumbfounded. This Chu Jun was too charismatic!

Du Wu said indifferently, "Dao Qing, bring three Nascent Souls and fifty Golden Cores to help Chu Jun!"

Dao Zheng Ming couldn't help but tremble slightly, but his expression quickly returned to normal. He calmly said, "What do you want from the palace hall?"

A cold light flashed in Du Wu's eyes, "Take this opportunity to destroy the Gong Clan. The other two sects can accept it, but remember not to interfere too much with Chu Jun's decision!"

Dao Zheng Ming nodded in understanding, "Palace Master, don't worry!" After saying that, he turned around and hurriedly left.

Du Wu glanced at Ye Zhong, who was like a shadow beside her, and said indifferently, "You want to go too?"

Ye Zhong nodded his head and said very simply, "I owe him!"

"Then you go!"
