69 -69: The Devalued Black Dog

“Flamboyant?”

Zhong Ling stared at Chang Qianqian with a strange expression on her face.

Ever since spending time with Qin Jun, this girl had been spouting all sorts of odd and eccentric words.

“It means that the most dazzling person must be Qin Jun!” Chang Qianqian explained, lovingly.

One could only say that a girl in love is blind; ever since realizing she had fallen for Qin Jun, her admiration for him had inflated to the extreme.

Even after being rejected by Qin Jun once, she still held onto hope.

Girls of this age are always impulsive when it comes to love, especially Chang Qianqian, who had been pampered since childhood.

Although Qin Jun had spoken honestly last time, he had not completely closed the door on the matter, and Chang Qianqian believed that there was still a chance.

Zhong Ling couldn’t help but be speechless.

She didn’t know what kind of charm Qin Jun had cast over Chang Qianqian to make her trust him so much.

At that moment, Zhuo Junjie and Lu Xuanfeng had also finished their war of words and, along with their fellow sect disciples, entered Yuewang Palace.

As soon as they walked in, they saw a black dog lying in front of the stone statue at the gate—it was none other than the Roaring Sky Dog.

Qin Jun didn’t want any cultivators who lacked cultivation sneaking in to freeload, so he had the Roaring Sky Dog guard the entrance.

Should it encounter such people, it would promptly hurl them out.

Fortunately, up to this point, no one had dared to try anything underhanded, because if they were caught, it would be a grave offense.

“Wow!

Roaring Sky Dog, long time no see!”

Upon seeing the Roaring Sky Dog, Chang Qianqian excitedly rushed over.

Zhuo Junjie and the others also recognized that the black dog was the same one that had accompanied Qin Jun before and were surprised that Qin Jun valued it so much as to bring it into Yuewang Palace.

Bringing a demon king into the capital—if word got out, it would certainly cause panic.

“Tsk tsk, who would have thought that King Yue would keep such a black dog?

It really lowers his stature.”

Lu Xuanfeng shook his head with a smile.

The Roaring Sky Dog’s appearance was no different from a stray dog on the street, not looking divine or majestic.

However, upon closer inspection, one would notice the dog’s eyes were bright and spirited, very intelligent.

Chang Qianqian’s mouth twitched, and Chang Hao, who stood behind Zhong Ling, couldn’t help but mourn for Lu Xuanfeng.

Good Lord, that’s a demon king, and yet you dare to mock it like this.

There are better ways to court death!

Zhuo Junjie and the others had also heard from Chang Qianqian about the remarkable Roaring Sky Dog.

At this moment, they all looked at Lu Xuanfeng with a mix of pity, sympathy, and ridicule, making Lu Xuanfeng feel extremely uncomfortable.

“Did I say something wrong?”

Lu Xuanfeng’s heart clenched as he instinctively looked towards the Roaring Sky Dog.

At this moment, the Roaring Sky Dog was baring its teeth at him, its eyes filled with murderous intent, sending a chill down Lu Xuanfeng’s spine.

In an instant, he felt overwhelmed by an endless tide of killing intent, as if a great wave was about to engulf him.

With a thud, the chief disciple of Purple Light Sect knelt on the ground, disregarding his image.

His face was covered in cold sweat, and his expression was one of utter panic, confusing all the cultivators present, except for those from Xuanling Sect.

“What’s wrong with Lu Xuanfeng?

Is he paying homage to King Yue?”

“Probably having a fit of some sort!”

“Tsk tsk, everyone knows Lu Xuanfeng is a close friend of the Fifth Prince.

Now he’s kneeling down inside Yuewang Palace; it’s practically a slap to the Fifth Prince’s face.”

“Hmph, the Fifth Prince only knows some tactics at best.

If he becomes the emperor, Qianyue Kingdom is doomed!”

“Exactly, compared to that, King Yue’s accomplishments are much greater.

It’s said that he even eradicated a tyrannical clan in Qingtan City.”

The cultivators talked among themselves, quickly going from puzzled about Lu Xuanfeng’s actions to admiring Qin Jun.

The contest between the two countries had made the names of Qin Jun and Guan Yu known throughout the kingdom.

Moreover, the incidents of Qin Jun slaying Xiahou En and eradicating the Cheng Family were unearthed by those with ulterior motives, making his reputation among the princes unrivaled for the time being.

The Roaring Sky Dog quickly withdrew its killing aura.

Though killing Lu Xuanfeng would be easy for it, and it did not fear the entire Purple Light Sect, it now served Qin Jun and had to consider his interests.

“Let’s go!” ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Zhuo Junjie cast a cold glance at the disheveled Lu Xuanfeng and said, “Let’s go inside,” before taking the lead towards the inner parts of Yuewang Palace, with Chang Qianqian and others quickly following behind him.

Lu Xuanfeng was filled with terror, not daring to look at the Roaring Sky Dog again, and hurriedly led his fellow disciples to follow the footsteps of Zhuo Junjie and the others; the rest of the cultivators did not connect his abnormal reaction to the Roaring Sky Dog.

“What exactly is the origin of that dog…”

Lu Xuanfeng’s mind was filled with questions and fear, and at that moment, he wished he could slap his earlier self.

How could King Yue possibly let a useless dog guard the front gate?

The one losing face wasn’t King Yue, it was him, Lu Xuanfeng!

In the central area of Yuewang Palace, there was a large open space usually reserved for Qin Jun’s martial practice.

Now, it was being used for a banquet.

Under the night sky, oil lamps were placed around the space, illuminating the entire banquet area, where Qin Jun was drinking with the early-arriving disciples from Burning Mountain Valley.

“Haha, King Yue truly deserves to be the man of the hour; he doesn’t hold back when it comes to drinking at all,” said Lin You, the top disciple of Burning Mountain Valley, with a laugh as he raised his bowl.

Of average build, handsome features, and with a somewhat scholarly bearing, he was nonetheless quite boisterous when drinking.

Qin Jun smirked.

Joking aside, in his past life, he’d drunk with those bosses until he got a stomach perforation and had developed a strong tolerance.

Moreover, with his seventh-level Foundation Establishment cultivation, alcohol didn’t affect him much.

The conversation helped the disciples of Burning Mountain Valley, represented by Lin You, to take quite a liking to Qin Jun, mainly because he didn’t act superior.

In their speech, there was no sense of aloofness, and compared to Qin Yu, they naturally preferred Qin Jun.

“The Purple Light Sect and the Xuanling Sect have arrived!”

At this moment, a cultivator suddenly shouted out, causing Qin Jun and Lin You to look over involuntarily.

They saw Zhuo Junjie and Lu Xuanfeng strolling in with their fellow sect members.

Chang Qianqian, walking behind Zhuo Junjie, brightened upon seeing Qin Jun and immediately ran towards him.

This scene made many young cultivators’ hearts race.

“Such a cute girl; is she the daughter of the Xuanling Sect’s Sect Master?”

“Of course, she’s the princess of Xuanling Sect!”

“Look how excited she is; could it be for me?”

“Pah!

Shameless!

She’s definitely here for me!”

Even Lin You couldn’t help but stand up straight, looking seriously at Chang Qianqian as she ran towards him.

Although Chang Qianqian’s beauty fell just short of Daji, she was indeed very pretty.

If not for her lower cultivation, and perhaps with a more refined air, she could compete with Daji in beauty.

To everyone’s surprise, Chang Qianqian breezed past Lin You and threw herself into Qin Jun’s arms like an octopus, eliciting widened eyes from the young cultivators, while the female cultivators silently chided Chang Qianqian for her unabashed boldness.

In the Qianyue Kingdom, women were conservative, and it was rare for a woman to embrace a man in public, let alone with the intimacy that made onlookers’ noses bleed, like Chang Qianqian was now displaying.

“Get down from me now!”

Qin Jun, helplessly pulling at Chang Qianqian, wondered how she could be becoming so presumptuous.

However, feeling the envious gazes of the male cultivators around him, he still felt quite pleased.

“I haven’t seen you for so long, I missed you!” Chang Qianqian said, reluctantly letting go and pouting cutely, a sight that nearly melted the male cultivators’ hearts.

Daji, walking over with Old Zhang, couldn’t help but frown when she saw this.
