Chapter 743: Jun Zhan Tian’s Countermeasure!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Looks like Old Master Jun is now free from his official responsibilities. That’s a great thing; I greatly admire his ability to be able to see past worldly matters and retire swiftly, the true quality of a hero!”

Li You Ran smiled and gently put the tea cup back. Leaning back in his seat, he smiled and asked, “Just as I have mentioned earlier, I came forth today with intentions to visit Old Master Jun. I wonder if it is possible for Housekeeper Pang to help inform so?”

One couldn’t help but be impressed with Li You Ran’s self-preservation, to be able to continue to smile so elegantly when facing such a grotesque face. As expected, the pertinence of an expert was unfathomable.

The scar on Old Pang’s face turned red, but he still maintained that gentle and attentive attitude, and smiling, he replied, “If that is the case, please wait a while, Young Master Li.” Then he began to catwalk away, swaying his butt as he left. This was part of what Jun Mo Xie had trained the maids to do, and since Old Pang had learnt it, naturally he had to deliver the full set...

The moment Old Pang had stepped foot out, one of the Saints couldn’t bear it anymore and crushed the tea cup in his hand into powder. Wearing an odd expression as if he wanted to vomit or was constipated for almost half a month, he asked despondently, “Li You Ran, is that guy a man or a woman? While I could still forcefully endure how sissy he was earlier, but swaying his butt like that really makes me...”

He shook his head and let out a long sigh. “As expected, you’re bound to meet a demon in area where demons appear.”

The other two Saints nodded aggressively in agreement, clearly feeling the same way. They had better self-preservation and didn’t shatter the tea cup.

Li You Ran was also a little disgusted, but he managed to force himself to bear with it. He frowned slightly and said, “That is Old Master Jun’s Housekeeper, but he used to follow Old Master Jun into battle as his first general! If not because he wished to continue to stay by Old Master Jun, he would hold a relatively high position in court today... But I don’t know why he is behaving so oddly today...”

“Huh? He was the first general?” The three Saints were surprised. “When the Tian Xiang Empire charged into battle, were they fighting like women?”

Li You Ran let out a pfft , almost spitting his tea out.

Heavy footsteps could be heard from the back, slow and steady. Just from the sound of the footsteps, one could tell how proud and reserved the owner was.

Li You Ran and the rest sat properly and reverted back to a serious expression.

Jun Zhan Tian was the only person who knew everything about the situation in the Jun Residence. They only had to observe Jun Zhan Tian’s expressions carefully. They could definitely tell a lot of facts from that! Even if certain important matters didn’t require them to see it for themselves, they could observe the people related to it to gain insight into the situation.

Jun Zhan Tian’s appearance would be the turning point of this trip!

The previous rounds of encounters were too much! The four never felt so awkward before in their entire lives!

Finally, Old Master Jun entered the hall with heavy and powerful strides. His wise eyes glanced calmly at Li You Ran. He let out a simple “oh” before sitting down slowly. Looking at Li You Ran, he spoke. “So it was you, haha, how is your grandfather? I heard you left Tian Xiang recently to learn from a master? I didn’t expect you to have returned so soon; I believe you’ve learnt and gained quite a lot? Your Grandfather Li Shang is happy that you’ve returned so quickly, isn’t he?”

Li You Ran lowered his head and bowed slightly. “Thank you Old Master Jun for thinking of me; I had only learnt that it was tough in the outside world compared to the comforts of home. I couldn’t bear to be away from home so I have returned. As I had returned so soon, I didn’t managed to gain anything but only wasted my time. I’ve let you see me make a joke of myself...”

Jun Zhan Tian laughed. “It’s alright if you didn’t gain anything; you are still young and have plenty of time to train and practice. You’re a good child for knowing how to miss home, one who is worthy of being teached haha...” He had just finished this sentence when his ears seemed to have moved slightly. While there was no change in his smiling expression, his gaze shifted over to the three Saints. Wearing an strange look in his gaze, he smiled and asked, “Who are these three people?”

Li You Ran quickly replied, “These three people are my followers, haha, I have been pampered since young; if I don’t bring a few followers along when I go out, I will feel really odd. Housekeeper Pang was really generous to serve them tea and grant them seats, but it was really me being impolite... Haha...”

The three Saints quickly stood behind Li You Ran. They were completely disguised like ordinary people, and no matter how one looked at them, they just looked like any other regular person on the streets.

The look in Jun Zhan Tian’s eyes suddenly changed to one of rumination, and he spoke slowly. “Young Master You Ran is truly fortunate to have those three as your followers.”

Although his expression did not change earlier, his eyes did perk for a moment. But how could such a slight, secretive gesture go unnoticed by the sharp senses of these three Saints!

The three immediately thought of it. An expert secretly delivered a message to Jun Zhan Tian! He definitely told him about our identity and capabilities, so Jun Zhan Tian will suddenly pay attention to us.

The three immediately activated their spiritual sense to search. Since there was voice transmission, then it definitely needed Xuan strength. And as long as Xuan Qi was activated, the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings would react along with it.

This was an inevitable matter!

But after carefully searching around, to their surprise, they realized that there were no spiritual fluctuations in the surrounding! And no abnormalities in the Spiritual Qi! Though the three did not allow anything to show on their faces, they heightened their guards. There is always some sort of Spiritual Qi fluctuation when one uses voice transmissions, but we did not notice anything like this. This shows how skillful this person is, to be able to conceal all abnormalities in an instant, and for the surroundings to remain this flawless. Just this alone is enough to show how much more skillful he is than us!

But why does he not come out directly to defeat us and hide behind the scenes instead?

If there was some sort of movement in the air, these three people wouldn’t be this suspicious. But precisely because there was nothing that had led these three Saints to think that the other party’s capabilities were unfathomable and surpassed all of them!

But they did not think that it was not because they couldn’t find it, but rather that there really was nothing! The only expert present was the Old Master Jun sitting before them—who had recently reached the second level of the Spirit Xuan realm! He was the number one expert of the Jun Family currently...

Old Master Jun laughed, his eyes perking a little. His eyes twinkled a little as he stood up. “Since you have arrived in the Jun Family Residence, then you are my guests. I am no longer a Marshall or Duke, so you don’t have to stand on ceremony. Do take a seat.” Then he turned to Old Pang, who was waiting aside and said, “We have honoured guests, how could you let them stand and talk? What kind of housekeeper are you? Go, I don’t need you to wait on us here!”

Old Pang did not try to speak for himself but quickly admitted to his wrong. Then swinging his glistening all-back hairstyle and standing upright, he sashayed his way out.

Though Old Master Jun had no change in his peaceful and calm expression, his heart was frightened by the Old Pang’s sashay! If he were not aware that the current situation was a matter of life and death, he would have stared dumbfoundedly.

But all Old Master Jun currently needed to do was just stay calm!

In order to bypass this stage, he needed to be absolutely calm and wise.

A crisis where there was danger of perishment at any turn!

Old Master Jun was very clear; the moment he saw Li You Ran and the three Saints, he understood instantly!

Of all sorts of things you shouldn’t have done, you, Li You Ran, shouldn’t have brought these three people along!

They do look just like ordinary people with not even of the tiniest bit of Xuan Qi cultivation—this is no mistake!

But how could people completely without any sort of cultivation be worthy of being the bodyguards of Young Master Li?

Who are you trying to kid?? This loophole is too obvious!

With your extremely cautious character, simply bringing three regular people as bodyguards—would you really dare step out of the house? Especially to come all the way to the Jun Residence!

There was definitely something fishy about those three people!

In this world, experts could conceal their true abilities if they wanted to. But no matter how brilliant a person was, they would not be able to choose extent he wished to reveal, like Jun Mo Xie. They only had two choices: one was to conceal completely, the second was to not conceal anything!

Old Master Jun was already at the second level of the peak of Spirit Xuan—he was confident he was able to see through those who were lower than a Spirit Xuan in their cultivation! But those three followers were obviously “regular people”—no matter how he looked at it, they were still ordinary people, so Old Master Jun immediately raised his caution!

There were only two possibilities: first, these three people were perhaps really ordinary people! Second, these three people were at a higher cultivation level than himself! So much higher that they could perfectly conceal their own capabilities so he couldn’t tell!

Old Master Jun did not even need to consider the first possibility. It definitely was the second one because anyone else could bring three such people out, but not Li You Ran! So these three people were definitely experts!

And they were top level experts!

Although these three men were just like any regular person in their behavior, actions and even aura, but they were definitely not like regular servants! And they were all expressionless, which made them even more dissimilar to normal servants! They didn’t even know how to butter up and serve their master! If they were following Old Master Jun, he would have kicked them straight out!

The always demanding, arrogant, and perfectionist Li You Ran brought out three useless servants to visit?

This was the biggest joke of Tian Xiang City!

So Old Master Jun immediately thought of what his grandson had said. To mix truth and falsehood, kick up a cloud of dust and confuse the enemy!

So Old Master Jun immediately employed a suitable countermeasure!
