Chapter 76: Guardian



Miss An Ran, you don't want to hurt your young master even a finger, okay? If you knew that he was not well protected by a few people, then... wouldn't he be tortured to death?

"...But there is no response from the young master. What should we do?" Mei Yi said with some concern.

"...Should we send another message to the young master? Wait for instructions? The imperial capital is not far away anyway. If something happens, we will ask for instructions. He just didn't see it." Mei Han tried to suggest.

"Okay! Then we will send another message! This time, let's use Xiao Guanju, and make sure to deliver it to the young master personally!" Phantom made the final decision and said directly.

After deciding on their tasks, several people started to act separately. Mei Yi quickly wrote the message, Mei Ying whistled silently to summon a little Guan Ju, Mei Han used a freezing spell to grab the little Guan Ju in his hand, and then thawed it, Mei Ren quickly rolled up the note and handed it to the little Guan Ju.

Xiao Guanju glared at Meihan with resentful eyes. She got frozen every time she delivered a message. Couldn’t she be a little gentler?

"Okay, okay, things are urgent today, so go and send it back to the mansion~" Mei Ren comforted Xiao Guanju perfunctorily, then threw Xiao Guanju into the air with force.

Little Guanju turned around and glared at the four of them sadly, then flapped her wings and flew towards the inner city of the imperial capital. Woo woo woo, they are all bad people, I will go to complain to the master!

If others saw them abusing little Guanju like this, they would definitely be shocked!

Because of the enormous space inside her mouth, which can accommodate nearly a thousand people, Xiao Guanju is known as the king of professional messengers. Not everyone can possess it! Even if someone does, it's only for delivering expedited mail!

Little Guanju is not only fast and well-hidden, but it's also psychic! No special training is needed; just let it remember the scent of the person it's delivering to, and it can find that person, no matter if they're on a glacier or a volcano, as long as they're still there!

This is also used by many people to search for people!

Moreover, little Guanju is notoriously irritable and vindictive, lives in groups, and is extremely difficult to capture.

But! Such a clever bird, not only was it used by them to deliver messages, but they also treated it so carelessly and casually!

This is such a waste of natural resources! I can’t even bear to look at it!

Fortunately, they used Xiao Guanju to deliver the message this time. In less than half an hour, Xiao Guanju had arrived at the royal palace in the imperial capital.

At this time, the palace of the king was extremely lively. The dignitaries coming and going were drinking and enjoying themselves, and they were speaking flattering words to Jun Zichen who was sitting in the upper seat.

"Young Master Jun is indeed a hero born in youth. We really can't help but admit that we are getting old..."

"Young Master Jun has recovered and his cultivation has greatly increased. It's truly a pity but also a cause for celebration..."

"I never thought that Young Master Jun could fight against a thousand enemies on his own. He is truly a role model for the younger generation..."

"That's right, even though Master Jun fell seriously ill a few years ago, he has always been the object of pursuit for the younger generation like me!"

The flattered Jun Zichen sat in the upper seat, looking at his old man impatiently and saying irritably, "Are these people done yet?"

"It's not over yet, I haven't finished flattering you yet..." The prince was calm and composed, enjoying the flattery of this group of people with a look of pleasure.

"What's there to flatter? When I was seriously ill, there were many people who took advantage of my misfortune!" Jun Zichen looked at the group of people with disdain and mocked them.

"This is human nature. Life is unpredictable. There are many people who add icing on the cake, but few who help in times of need. Chen'er, you are still too young..." The prince ignored Jun Zichen's sarcasm and still enjoyed the flattery.

"Old man, you enjoy looking at the hypocritical faces of these people, but I don't. I'm leaving!" Jun Zichen flicked his sleeves and prepared to stand up from his seat.

"Sit down and listen carefully. One day, you will take over the throne. Take a good look and learn how to handle things smoothly." The prince glanced at Jun Zichen indifferently and said earnestly.

"Hmph, if I took over the throne, I would definitely not be as cowardly as you, hiding most of my strength and pretending to be nice to those fools!" Jun Zichen's face was full of anger, and a hint of viciousness flashed in his cold eyes.

At this time, a young guard hurried in. He walked straight to Jun Zichen and said something to Lanzhi who was standing behind Jun Zichen. Lanzhi's face changed drastically, and her pretty face turned pale. She hurriedly stepped forward and whispered a few words to Jun Zichen.

"Okay, okay, I'm leaving! We'll talk later if there's anything!" Jun Zichen's face instantly turned ugly when he heard that. His already irritable mood became even more gloomy. He stood up and prepared to leave!

"Chen'er, ever since you recovered from your illness, your temper has become worse and you have lost a lot of patience. What's going on?" The prince opened his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in his narrow pupils.

"It's nothing, I just don't want to suppress myself anymore! I suppressed myself and became gentle and harmless, but what did I get in return?! Others thought I was weak and could be bullied, and poisoned and assassinated me. I have experienced so much. After I came back this time, I will never be so weak and can be bullied again!" Jun Zichen said without looking back, and strode to the back room.

"What makes you willing to change?" Seeing Jun Zichen almost reaching the door, Prince Jun asked curiously.

"Because... I have someone I want to protect, and I won't let these people bully her anymore! Whoever stands in my way will be killed, even if it's a Buddha, I will kill him!" Jun Zichen stopped and said without turning his head. After that, he strode forward again.

The prince behind him looked at Jun Zichen with satisfaction. He had finally grown up. The Prince's Palace had been silent for too long, so long that everyone had forgotten that the Prince's Palace was the only hereditary throne in the imperial capital...

Now is the time for everyone to remember these things... Chen'er is doing very well now and can shoulder this responsibility...

"Uncle Li, please show the guests away. The dinner at our Prince's Mansion is over!" The Prince clapped his hands and stood up, smiling with satisfaction.

Jun Zichen followed Lanzhi out of the house and into the study. As soon as he entered the study, Jun Zichen's face darkened, his eyes sharp, and he flew into a rage: "What's going on? Didn't Meiying and the others send us a message before?"

The whole room was filled with this raging anger. Lanzhi was so overwhelmed by the rage in the air that she could hardly breathe. She could clearly sense her young master's displeasure and quickly knelt down to plead, "Young master, two months ago, you were out on business. Everyone you mentioned at the time was not allowed to pass on any information to you."

Jun Zichen's anger hadn't dissipated. He glanced at Lanzhi and said, "Don't you know what news should be delivered and what news shouldn't be delivered? What did the camp teach you? Hmm?"
