Chapter 124 Jealous Gaze.
Jun Luochuan and Su Yao, carrying the precious treasures they had painstakingly acquired in that mysterious forbidden land, returned to the bustling settlement of cultivators like triumphant heroes, their hearts filled with joy and high spirits.
Their faces beamed with the radiant joy of victory, as bright as the spring sun, their smiles so dazzling they seemed to illuminate the entire world. However, they were completely unaware that this hard-won, remarkable achievement had, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirred ripples of envy among the crowd.
In the bustling, lively market, Jun Luochuan and Su Yao were as excited as children, discussing with great enthusiasm how to cleverly use these rare treasures to improve their cultivation and make their path to immortality smoother.
"Jun Luochuan, with these treasures, we'll be like birds with wings, and our strength will surely soar like a rocket to new heights!" Su Yao's eyes sparkled, shining as brightly as the brightest star in the night sky, filled with boundless anticipation and longing.
Jun Luochuan nodded slightly, a confident and warm smile on his face like sunshine: "That's natural, but the path of cultivation is rugged and bumpy. We can't let our current victory go to our heads and make us careless."
Just then, a pair of eyes burning with intense jealousy glared at them from the corner like a vicious wolf.
That was Lin Yu, a cultivator with a heart as narrow as the eye of a needle. He had always been like moss in a dark corner, silently envying Jun Luochuan's innate talent and remarkable achievements. Seeing the mountain of dazzling treasures in Jun Luochuan and Su Yao's hands, Lin Yu's heart was instantly shrouded in a cloud of resentment.
"Why do they have such incredible luck? Why is God so unfair! I'm not convinced, I'm not reconciled!" Lin Yu gritted his teeth, as if they were about to break, and muttered to himself fiercely. His eyes flashed with a venomous light, like sharp daggers aimed directly at Jun Luochuan and Su Yao, as if he were meticulously plotting a shameful conspiracy.
At the same time, another woman named Ye Xuan cast a jealous and resentful glance. Ye Xuan had always been proud of her beauty, like a proud peacock. But seeing Su Yao laughing so innocently and happily beside Jun Luochuan, the fire of jealousy in her heart instantly erupted like a volcano.
"That Su Yao is just a simple-minded fool. Why does she deserve Jun Luochuan's favor and care? What do I lack compared to her?" Ye Xuan clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her palms. She was filled with resentment, as if a ball of anger was burning inside her, ready to incinerate everything.
Meanwhile, atop a towering, magnificent pavilion not far away, a cultivator named Zhao Feng also turned his gaze to Jun Luochuan and Su Yao. Zhao Feng had always been an arrogant and disdainful person, as if he were a supreme king. Seeing Jun Luochuan's astonishing gains, he felt his supreme position was severely threatened, as if he had been violently pushed off his throne.
"Hmph, Jun Luochuan, don't think that your good fortune this time will allow you to remain so smug. I will definitely let you know who the true overlord of this cultivation world is!" Zhao Feng said with a cold smile, his smile as icy as winter frost, sending chills down one's spine.
These envious gazes, like venomous snakes lurking in the darkness, silently fixed their eyes on Jun Luochuan and Su Yao. A storm was brewing, yet they remained immersed in the joy of their success, completely unaware of the impending danger...
