Jun Jiuli looked outside the hall, "It seems we have guests."
Jun Lin and the other two overheard the entire conversation between Jun Qianxue and Jun Jiuli at the palace gate.
Jun Qianxue turned around and was surprised to see Jun Lin. "It's you two. Where are Wushuang and the other two?"
Didn't she just ask Jun Wushuang and Jun Wuyai to be in charge of entertaining Jun Lin and the others? Why are they here?
Moreover, neither Jun Wushuang nor Jun Wuyai were present.
Jun Qianxue's eyes flashed with anger, her fists clenched tightly. These two guys really are as unreliable as ever!
Jun Jiuli didn't care about so much. He stood up and said very enthusiastically, "You must be the recently famous self-destructing Heavenly Venerable Jun Lin! It's true that seeing you in person is worse than hearing about you. You're much better than my two brats!"
Jun Jiuli was very enthusiastic, so Jun Lin naturally wouldn't refuse him. He immediately nodded and said, "Hehe, your name is indeed very famous, senior."
Upon hearing this, Jun Jiuli burst into laughter, "Hahaha, that's right! Who in this entire Holy Capital doesn't know the name of Jun Jiuli?"
Jun Qianxue sighed and rubbed her forehead. Although it was true, her father was really too unhumble.
“That’s just how my father is, please don’t mind. May I ask what brings you three here?” Jun Qianxue asked.
Although I don't know why Jun Wushuang and Jun Wuyai are not here, Jun Lin was able to find this place so accurately, so he probably wasn't lost, right?
Seeing this, Jun Jiuli said, "Yes, young friend, please speak frankly. Although our Jun family has a bad reputation, we are absolutely the most sincere when it comes to our guests."
"It's clear that you're an easy-going person, senior."
"Haha, that's right! Speaking of which, young friend, you also share the surname Jun. It's quite a coincidence. Why don't you join my Jun family?" Jun Jiuli laughed heartily as he invited Jun Lin.
King's Landing's reputation has spread rapidly and widely recently.
As the head of the Jun family, it would be absolutely impossible for him not to have heard of this name!
I first heard this name more than a year ago, when King's Landing was not as famous as it is now.
At that time, King's Landing had already publicly declared that it came from the King's family.
He even suspected at the time that he might be the illegitimate son of one of the elders in the family, and he even sent people out to investigate.
And now, the name of King's Landing has resounded throughout the Holy Capital!
But that was not the reason he invited King's Landing.
He invited King's Landing for only two reasons: King's Landing's name and King's Landing's style of doing things.
It suits his family perfectly!
Even Jun Lin was momentarily stunned upon hearing Jun Jiuli's invitation.
Honestly, this person was somewhat inclined to invite trouble.
Jun Lin glanced at Er Yan and Er Rou beside him. With his current strength, it seemed unlikely that he could directly overthrow the Jun family and ascend to the position of family head.
Therefore, we need to plan this carefully.
After thinking for a moment, he agreed, "Sure, all people under heaven share the same surname, and besides, I have long admired the Jun family of the Holy Capital."
Seeing that Jun Lin agreed, Jun Jiuli laughed again, "Hahaha! Good! Since that's the case, from today onwards, you will be an elder of our Jun family. I will have someone arrange a banquet and announce this matter then."
Jun Jiuli was genuinely happy that Jun Lin agreed so readily.
Although through various sources he knew that King's Landing was not as wicked as the mainstream rumors suggested, he was still not entirely at ease.
But now that Junlin has joined their Jun family, they can rest assured. They're all on their side now. Junlin wouldn't possibly turn his own people away, would he?
"It's that simple?"
Junlin raised an eyebrow; this seemed a bit too hasty.
Jun Jiuli nodded and said, "Yes, it's that simple. You can choose one of the three factions: the righteous path, the demonic path, or the neutral path. Then you can become an elder of that faction and receive a salary and other benefits."
After Junlin entered the main hall, he casually found a seat and sat down. "Speaking of which, I'm quite curious, why create three factions?"
Jun Jiuli explained, "This is a tradition of the Jun family, but according to records, the reason for dividing into factions in the first place was... just for fun."
Fun...
What a hasty reason, yet inexplicably reasonable.
As he replied, Jun Jiuli looked at the two people beside Jun Lin, "Don't you know who these two are?"
He couldn't see through E Yan's cultivation level, but he could see through E Rou's cultivation level, which was roughly at the peak of the eighth-level Supreme Realm.
These two powerful figures would be taken seriously by any family, yet they are now following Jun Lin.
In response to Jun Jiuli's question, Jun Lin explained, "Oh, this is my wife, and this... is also my wife!"
"Um?"
Er Yan raised an eyebrow and punched Jun Lin directly.
Er Rou blushed and lowered her head, muttering somewhat embarrassedly, "Brother-in-law, don't talk nonsense."
"..."
Jun Jiuli's eyes widened, feeling greatly shocked. "Fellow Daoist is truly an outstanding person, a role model for us all."
To be honest, he was a little envious.
It's not that I envy Junlin for having a Daoist partner like Eyan, who is at the Ninth Rank Supreme Realm, but rather that I envy Junlin for taking in his sister-in-law, Erou.
So he secretly sent a telepathic message to Junlin, saying, "Fellow Daoist, would you have time to teach me?"
"Ahem, no problem, no problem!"
Jun Lin coughed lightly and waved his hand, but then immediately changed the subject, saying, "Speaking of which, I've just joined the family. As the current head of the family, shouldn't you show your appreciation?"
Junlin's meaning is quite clear: if you don't give me something in return, it's hard for me to teach you.
Jun Jiuli naturally understood Jun Lin's meaning and laughed loudly, "Haha, then I wonder if there's anything you've taken a fancy to, or if you need any help, please feel free to speak up, and I will grant your request!"
Junlin raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Is that so? No objection allowed?"
Jun Jiuli: "No objection allowed!"
Seeing Jun Jiuli's confidence, Jun Lin stopped pretending and said directly, "Since that's the case, then give me the position of family head."
"..."
Jun Jiuli was silent for a moment, then said, "How about you change your conditions, fellow Daoist? I will try my best to meet them."
"Fine, I knew you big shots wouldn't keep your word. Just give me any bead that was formed from the secret realm."
Jun Lin shrugged, his face full of disappointment towards Jun Jiuli.
Jun Jiuli's lips twitched. You've practically written your true intentions on your face, yet you're still pretending. This is just... so right!
He saw in Junlin the fine qualities that belonged to the Jun family.
So Jun Jiuli waved his hand and said, "It's just a mere bead. Since you want it, I'm naturally willing to part with it even if it hurts!"
