"Could it be because of the medicine?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Ran turned to look at Jun Feijue and Di Moyu, "Are they here to demand an explanation because they couldn't buy the potion?"
"Master, look, the master was right after all. Jun Feijue is a jinx specifically designed to bring you trouble. He just got back, and you've already attracted such a huge disaster!"
Upon seeing this, Zhou Yumei immediately pulled Jun Yunping aside and urged, "Master, for the sake of the family, you absolutely cannot acknowledge her! Quickly drive her out to avoid bringing trouble upon yourselves!"
"Zhou Yumei, are you even speaking human language? Xiao Jue is only five years old, do you want her to die?!"
Upon hearing this, Jun Ran immediately flew into a rage and looked at Jun Yunping, saying, "Father, Xiao Jue and I are your own flesh and blood. Putting aside the fact that the specific situation is still unclear, even if we have really made a mistake, shouldn't the family protect us instead!"
"Ha, how laughable! One of you has ruined your dantian, and the other can't cultivate at all. Why should the family offend the Mercenary Guild for the sake of two good-for-nothings like you!"
Zhou Yumei sneered with disdain, "If you really have any conscience, then leave the family obediently and save yourselves from causing trouble for the family."
Zhou Yumei felt a surge of smugness. So what if you're lucky to be back? You've foolishly offended the Mercenary Guild. Let's see if you'll still live this time!
Although the Jun family is one of the four major families of the Qingxuan Kingdom, it is far inferior to the Mercenary Guild, whose power is spread throughout the entire kingdom.
Therefore, Zhou Yumei's words hit the nail on the head. The Jun family would definitely not offend such a behemoth for the sake of two good-for-nothings.
Of course, this is on the premise that the two of them are truly useless.
"Master Jun, let's see how things go first. After all, Xiao Jue is my future Crown Princess. I will help her deal with it."
Yu Qingchen couldn't stand Zhou Yumei's sharp tongue and viciousness any longer. She took the lead in politely greeting the group of engineers and soldiers, saying, "You must be Ma Shixin, the vice president of the Qingxuan Royal Mercenary Guild. I've long admired your name. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Oh, so it's Your Highness the Crown Prince. This old man greets you."
Upon seeing that it was Yu Qingchen, Ma Shixin's expression softened slightly. He returned the greeting with a slight smile and cupped his hands, saying, "I have important matters to attend to today, so please excuse me."
"President Ma, may I ask what brings you here today?"
Yu Qingchen remained calm and took a step forward to ask, "The second young lady of the Jun family is my fiancée. I am entitled to inquire about her affairs."
"I'm truly sorry, Your Highness, but this is a matter that you are unable to decide."
Ma Shixin shook his head and walked straight toward Jun Feijue and the others.
Ma Shixin's attitude was very decisive, and Yu Qingchen had no choice but to stand by and watch the situation unfold.
"Father!"
Seeing this, Junran felt anxious and looked at Jun Yunping with hopeful eyes, hoping that he could say something.
Even if the Jun family is not as powerful as the Mercenary Guild, as long as the patriarch is willing to step in, there will certainly be an opportunity for negotiation.
"master!"
Upon seeing this, Zhou Yumei immediately reached out and pulled Jun Yunping back, shaking her head vigorously at him, "It's not worth offending the Mercenary Guild for them."
"You're right."
Upon hearing this, the slight pity that had just arisen in Jun Yunping vanished instantly. He turned his head away resolutely and said, "You made your own mess, so clean it up yourself. This has nothing to do with the Jun family!"
