In the quiet inner chamber, only Jun Xiaoyao and Xia Bingyun were present.

Jun Xiaoyao observed Xia Bingyun.

Her black hair was like ink, elegantly arranged in a dignified bun.

Her skin was as white as jade, radiating a subtle glow.

Her features were delicate and beautiful, with captivating eyes.

Her figure wasn't exaggeratedly curvaceous, but her silhouette was extremely graceful, displaying feminine charm.

She exuded an elegant and intellectual beauty.

Sensing Jun Xiaoyao's examining gaze, Xia Bingyun unusually showed a hint of nervousness.

She was always the one who saw through others, but this time, she felt that Jun Xiaoyao had seen through her.

Before Jun Xiaoyao, everything about her seemed completely exposed.

"Why so nervous? This divine son isn't some demon. Are you afraid I'll eat you?"

Jun Xiaoyao chuckled lightly and sat down.

Hearing this, Xia Bingyun's face flushed with a rosy hue.

Those words somehow sounded ambiguous and flirtatious?

"Meeting the legendary divine son for the first time, Bingyun can't help feeling nervous," Xia Bingyun said.

"No need. Do you know what I want from you?" Jun Xiaoyao asked, his knuckles tapping on the armrest, speaking calmly.

"Bingyun doesn't know," Xia Bingyun answered honestly.

Because of the Treasure Basin, she had many treasures on her.

But considering Jun Xiaoyao's status as the Jun family's divine son, she thought there probably weren't many things on her that would interest him.

"Could it be..." Xia Bingyun suddenly thought of something.

That was a secret only she knew, even her parents and sister Xia Chuqing didn't know about it.

"This divine son wants one of the nine Heavenly Books from you, the Treasure Book!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Bingyun's body trembled, her mind thundering!

She never expected her biggest secret would be so easily discovered by Jun Xiaoyao.

Of course, Xia Bingyun didn't know that Jun Xiaoyao already possessed the Body Book and Void Book.

He could use these two books to sense the Treasure Book on her.

As for other Heavenly Book controllers, it was impossible for them to sense Jun Xiaoyao.

Because if Jun Xiaoyao didn't want to reveal himself, no one could see through his true nature.

"How did Divine Son know?" Xia Bingyun was very curious.

The Treasure Book was her biggest secret, never revealed to anyone.

"Because I am also a controller of the Heavenly Books," Jun Xiaoyao said directly.

"I see," Xia Bingyun nodded slightly.

Although she didn't understand how Jun Xiaoyao could sense her Heavenly Book through his own, this was his own method, and she naturally couldn't probe further.

"Then how did Divine Son know that Bingyun controls the Treasure Book, one of the nine Heavenly Books?" Xia Bingyun continued asking.

"Is the Emperor-level Treasure Basin something one can just pick up randomly?" Jun Xiaoyao smiled.

If this was luck, then the luck was too good to be true.

"Indeed, nothing escapes Divine Son's notice. Yes, Bingyun does control the Treasure Book."

With the secret fully exposed, Xia Bingyun couldn't hide anything anymore.

She briefly explained the situation.

It turned out that when she was very young, she obtained half of the Treasure Book.

Later, using this half, she found the Emperor-level Treasure Basin.

And inside the Treasure Basin was the other half of the Treasure Book.

The nine Heavenly Books, being sentient treasures of heaven and earth, would mystically seek out their masters, allowing them to become controllers of the Heavenly Books.

Xia Bingyun was the controller of the Treasure Book.

"Now, this divine son wants this extremely precious Treasure Book. Will you hand it over?" Jun Xiaoyao looked at Xia Bingyun.

He had long decided to collect all nine Heavenly Books.

Jun Xiaoyao vaguely felt that there was a great secret behind the nine Heavenly Books.

People even rumored that if one could gather all nine Heavenly Books, they might glimpse a hidden path to immortality.

Of course, rumors were just rumors, since no one had ever collected all nine Heavenly Books.

Such an extremely precious treasure as the nine Heavenly Books couldn't be measured by any value.

Someone like Xia Bingyun, coming from a business family background and most skilled at value assessment, probably wouldn't be willing to give it up.

However, whether she handed it over or not was her business.

Jun Xiaoyao would definitely obtain it.

If the soft approach didn't work, he would use force.

But to Jun Xiaoyao's surprise, Xia Bingyun hesitated only for a moment before her jade finger brushed over her spatial ring.

A scroll made of gold foil-like material appeared.

Xia Bingyun held the scroll with both hands and presented it, saying: "The Treasure Book is here."

"Oh?"

Jun Xiaoyao's eyes showed a trace of surprise as he took the scroll and examined it briefly, confirming that it was indeed the genuine Treasure Book, not a fake.

This decisiveness made Jun Xiaoyao see Xia Bingyun in a new light.

"You're giving up such a precious item just like that?" Jun Xiaoyao asked with interest.

He had thought he might need to use some force.

"Divine Son saved my sister, Bingyun is deeply grateful. It's just a Treasure Book, if Divine Son wants it, I will naturally offer it," Xia Bingyun showed no reluctance.

"It seems you must have comprehended most of this Treasure Book already," Jun Xiaoyao smiled.

After all, Xia Bingyun had obtained half of the Treasure Book since childhood.

No matter how profound the Treasure Book was, Xia Bingyun should have comprehended it by now.

Xia Bingyun acknowledged this with a slight nod.

The reason she decisively handed over the Treasure Book, besides wanting to please Jun Xiaoyao, was indeed because she had already comprehended some of its essence.

Of course, with Xia Bingyun's talent, it was difficult for her to fully comprehend all of its essence.

"Regardless of the reason, you have indeed surprised this divine son," Jun Xiaoyao said while unhesitatingly storing the Treasure Book in his spatial device.

With this, Jun Xiaoyao had obtained three of the nine Heavenly Books.

The Treasure Book, one of the nine Heavenly Books, controlled the way of artifacts and possessed the ability to forge weapons.

When cultivated to the extreme, one could control any divine weapon, even Emperor-level weapons, and could even deprive others of their weapons.

Additionally, the Treasure Book had the power to sense and search for various treasures and mineral deposits.

This was why Xia Bingyun could be called a little rich lady.

Besides the help of the Treasure Basin, the Treasure Book also helped Xia Bingyun find many treasures.

"Being able to contribute a little to Divine Son is Bingyun's honor," Xia Bingyun smiled.

She was a strong woman with extraordinary skills and versatility.

Since she had the opportunity to climb up to Jun Xiaoyao's high branch, she naturally wouldn't easily let it go.

"If that's the case, are you willing to remain loyal to this divine son?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.

These words made Xia Bingyun pause for a moment, then a hint of joy flashed in her beautiful eyes.

With her intelligence, how could she not understand what these words meant?

In fact, just now, Xia Bingyun had been calculating in her heart how to establish a relationship with Jun Xiaoyao.

She wanted to propose it but feared it might backfire, making Jun Xiaoyao displeased and ruining everything.

Now, Jun Xiaoyao had taken the initiative, undoubtedly giving her an opportunity.

"Bingyun is certainly willing," Xia Bingyun agreed without hesitation.

Jun Xiaoyao's gaze was profound as he said, "You should think carefully. I don't just want you, but the entire Xia family to join my Jun Imperial Court."

"This also means that everything of the Xia family, to some extent, would belong to the Jun Imperial Court, including those resources, and the Emperor-level weapon, the Treasure Basin!"

Upon hearing this, the joy on Xia Bingyun's face instantly froze.

She had thought Jun Xiaoyao wanted to keep her by his side.

But she discovered that Jun Xiaoyao wanted the entire Xia family!

And along with all resources and treasures, including the Emperor-level Treasure Basin.

This was simply an outrageous demand, wanting to seize everything from the Xia family!
