The gaze of Nine Palaces Supreme fell directly on Qin Jun, ignoring Yang Jian and the others.
Faced with his gaze, Qin Jun did not flinch and met his eyes.
Hoh——
In an instant, the purple flame imprint between their brows simultaneously began to pulse. However, compared to Nine Palaces Supreme's, Qin Jun's purple flame was much smaller, likely due to the significant disparity in their sizes.
Yang Jian quickly stepped in front of Qin Jun, fearless and resolute, shouting, "As long as I am here, don't even think about harming my Emperor!"
Although he knew he was no match for Nine Palaces Supreme, he was willing to die protecting Qin Jun.
The fiercely loyal Donghuang Taiyi followed suit, as did Ying Zheng, Nvwa, Ran Min, and the others. They understood that even if they wanted to escape, they could not; so why not die with dignity?
