Li Qinghan frowned slightly at Jun Tianxiao's slander and said in a slightly cold tone:
"If Marquis Anle doesn't believe me, you can ask His Majesty to be a witness. My Li family will return all your gifts, not a single bit less."
"But I still want to remind Marquis Anle here, sometimes don't be too arrogant, be careful of your words causing trouble!"
After Li Qinghan finished speaking, she didn't bother with Lin Fan, who was still maintaining a righteous demeanor, and walked directly out of the marquis's manor.
Jun Tianxiao chuckled dismissively at Li Qinghan's final threat and didn't take it to heart.
In his opinion, with his relationship with the Empress, families like the Li and Wang families were nothing more than trash that could be easily crushed.
However, since Li Qinghan had already left, he lost interest in continuing.
He glanced at Lin Fan and sneered, "What, your master is gone, aren't you, a wild man, going to follow?"
[Tsk tsk tsk, that tone, that expression, it makes me want to punch him.]
[But does Jun Tianxiao have any trump cards? Otherwise, with his Foundation Establishment Middle Stage strength, how dare he provoke the protagonist, who is clearly at the Golden Core Stage?]
As expected, when Lin Fan heard his mockery, his originally handsome face suddenly became ferocious, and he seemed to have suffered immense humiliation.
"Little thief! If you dare to speak profanities today, you'll dare to kill tomorrow. Let me teach you a lesson!"
Lin Fan shouted and charged towards Jun Tianxiao.
But Jun Tianxian didn't seem to care, his expression unchanged.
He just watched Lin Fan charge at him, the mockery in his eyes even more intense.
Just as Lin Fan's fist was about to hit Jun Tianxiao's face, a hand firmly grabbed Lin Fan's wrist.
With a slight exertion, Lin Fan was thrown out and smashed heavily onto the floor.
Jun Tianxiao looked at the disheveled Lin Fan and didn't let the other person continue attacking. He just stood there, hands behind his back, looking down at Lin Fan disdainfully and said:
"Kid, grow some eyes in the future. Kneel when you see me!"
Then he looked at the young man who had just attacked and his tone softened: "Zilong, just throw him out."
"Yes, my Lord."
The young man cupped his fists in acknowledgment and dragged Lin Fan out by his ankle.
Mo Yunxuan, who was watching from outside the wall, knew that the show for today was over.
He returned to the carriage from the roof and said, "Uncle Wang, the situation inside... is over. Let's leave when the crowd disperses."
"Yes, Master." Wang Yuan's face remained calm, without the slightest fluctuation, and he replied faintly.
Mo Yunxuan recalled the scene just now and thought of the young man who made the final move. He mused:
Zilong? He's wearing Bright Silver Armor and looks quite handsome.
Apart from not having the Bright Silver Dragon Gallbladder Spear and the Night-Shining Jade Lion, he fits Zhao Yun's character in the novel quite well.
Thinking of this, Mo Yunxuan asked Wang Yuan, who was driving the carriage outside, "Uncle Wang, that young man called Zilong by Jun Tianxiao who came out of Marquis Anle's manor last, could you see his cultivation level?"
Wang Yuan heard Mo Yunxuan's question, pondered for a moment, and replied:
"Master, if I'm not mistaken, that Zilong should only be at Peak Nascent Soul cultivation. However, judging by his speed of action, he should be able to contend with some experts who have just entered the Spirit Transmutation stage."
Mo Yunxuan was not surprised by Wang Yuan's high evaluation of "Zilong."
According to the usual novel trope of summoning heroes from Huaxia, it was common for Huaxia heroes to kill enemies across a major realm. Figures like Lu Bu and Xiang Yu could even kill enemies across two major realms.
But if Jun Tianxiao's trump card was only this, Mo Yunxuan wouldn't be too afraid. After all, based on his observation of Jun Tianxiao just now, Jun Tianxiao's actions were too ostentatious.
Clearly, the manor guards were sufficient to deal with Lin Fan, yet he insisted on letting Zhao Yun make a move. The probability of him hiding his forces couldn't be said to be zero, only very small.
Therefore, the speed of summoning heroes shouldn't be too fast. Even if he summoned one per week, that would only be 52 a year.
And I have 200 Body Cultivator experts every year, each of whom can fight above their level. Although not as exaggerated as Huaxia heroes, there are 200 of them!
The advantage is mine!
If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid not finding it next time.
After a period of thought, Mo Yunxuan's mood suddenly brightened. He glanced at the Marquis Anle's manor that had already passed and Lin Fan lying on the ground.
He spoke in a calm tone: "Li Jin."
As soon as the words fell, a figure appeared on the carriage and respectfully bowed to Mo Yunxuan, "Duke, please give your orders."
Mo Yunxuan looked at the middle-aged man kneeling on one knee on the ground with a respectful expression. A panel that only Mo Yunxuan could see appeared.
[Name: Li Jin] [Identity: Dagan Dynasty Wei State Duke Mansion Imperial Guard Commander] [Cultivation: Spirit Transmutation Peak Stage] [Cultivation Technique: Blood Battle Scripture] [Loyalty: 93]
Looking at Li Jin's cultivation and loyalty, Mo Yunxuan nodded and said in a low voice.
"Jun Tianxiao's behavior today was very abnormal, he was completely like a different person, possibly possessed."
"Coupled with the fact that he has a young man by his side whose cultivation has reached Peak Nascent Soul, capable of fighting Spirit Transformation, it's clear Jun Tianxiao has some unknown secrets."
"I need you to, after handing over the Imperial City Imperial Guard, lead 500 Imperial Guard soldiers of the Nascent Soul Realm to personally monitor Jun Tianxiao, and avoid being discovered by him."
"Yes, Duke."
Upon hearing Mo Yunxuan's request, Li Jin agreed immediately without hesitation.
Watching Li Jin agree so readily, Mo Yunxuan suddenly doubted his decision to entrust this matter to him.
He agreed too quickly!
Is he unreliable?
After a moment of hesitation, Mo Yunxuan still spoke up with some unease:
"Remember, you absolutely cannot be discovered. If you are, disengage from their sight immediately."
Li Jin's body stiffened upon hearing this, and his tone clearly deepened.
"Don't worry, Duke. If we really can't escape, my brothers won't expose the Wei State Duke Mansion."
Mo Yunxuan heard the change in Li Jin's tone and realized he seemed to have misunderstood his meaning. He corrected him:
"That's not necessary. If you really can't get away, just fight directly. If you can't win, return to the mansion and bring reinforcements. If that doesn't work, go to the Imperial City Imperial Guard's barracks for help. Above all, preserve your lives."
Li Jin lowered his head deeply and said shamefully, "I apologize, Duke. I misunderstood you."
Mo Yunxuan waved his hand dismissively, saying indifferently, "It's fine. You may go."
"Yes!" Li Jin said and then disappeared from the carriage.
Mo Yunxuan opened a crack in the small window of the carriage, observing the street scenes along the way and listening to the hushed whispers of passersby.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the Imperial City Imperial Guard's stationed area within the city.
The expected obstruction by soldiers did not happen. The Gate Guard General even personally descended from the Gate Tower to welcome them upon seeing the Wei State Duke's banner.
Mo Yunxuan was both happy and disappointed by this.
He was happy that the handover of military power should go smoothly.
He was disappointed that his chance to show off by "killing a chicken to scare the monkeys" was gone.
It seems this transmigator doesn't have the chance to be the Protagonist, sigh...
As the carriage advanced, everyone soon arrived at the entrance of a tall building. Upon entering, they saw a group of Generals clad in armor standing on both sides of the entrance, clearly having waited for a long time.
Mo Yunxuan didn't put on airs either, jumping off the carriage in a few steps.
As soon as he looked up, a Middle-aged Man with a proper and kind face, leading the group, stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said:
"Duke, I am Chen Wei, one of the deputy generals of the Imperial City Imperial Guard. Please follow me to the Council Hall first."
Mo Yunxuan nodded at him and said calmly, "Mm, lead the way."
Can't find the book title, you can try searching for the author, perhaps the name has just been changed!
