2 Jun Mo Xie (2/2)

Everyone was left speechless.

He continued to walk through a garden, several pavilions, and a drill field. He then went around a very big pond, and walked for another few minutes through a road amidst two rows of trees to reach the Old Master’s residence. He discovered that his residence was located on the south, while Grandpa Jun’s residence was located on the north. The distance between the two residences would measure around three kilometers.

The present size of his familial clan seemed to be quite big. This should be the capital of the Kingdom if the memory of his present body had served him correct. There were only a handful of families who had a residence with an area of several tens of square meters in the capital; excluding the Imperial Palace.

Grandpa Jun was seated behind his desk. His hair was shiny black even though he was well over sixty. He could be easily mistaken for someone in his forties. His majestic countenance was filled with helplessness as he watched his grandson lazily enter the room in a feeble manner. He almost lost his temper.

Jun Zhan Tian was born poor. He had fought throughout the world, and had become a general in his youth. His name brought terror to the military forces of every kingdom. He possessed superior military tactics, and was endowed with a profound steadiness in character. He could maintain a calm exterior regardless of being joyous or furious. He was one of the few people in the Tian Xiang Kingdom who had the cultivation level of Sky Xuan Rank.

He had proved his capabilities by rising from poverty to become a general in his youth. How many people could replicate this feat? How long did it take to become a general? He had managed to achieve this in his youth.

Jun Zhan Tian had fought his way up from a lowly pauper to become a highly decorated Grand Duke. It took him forty years to achieve this feat. It’s said that the flow of time creates heroes. But, the number of such heroes were ‘far and few in between’ based on the history of the continent. However, he felt helpless as he gazed at his grandson – his one and only successor; his development had been nothing short of a let-down.

Grandpa Jun couldn’t figure out how his family’s lineage could give birth to this worthless scum. This person knew neither ‘literary’ nor ‘martial’ arts. He would grow giddy as soon as he picked-up a book, and would disappear faster than a magic rabbit as soon as he heard the word ‘practice’. The grandsons from other families were perfect. They had made a name for themselves at a young age. Their cultivation of Xuan Qi was on the right track since they were at the fifth level or above. However, his grandson’s cultivation of Xuan Qi was at a miserable third level. Moreover, he had forced five teachers to quit.

He was a disappointing figure. In addition, he had taught himself to eat, drink, gamble, and visit prostitutes. Jun Mo Xie had become a well-known genius in these fields. Grandpa Jun was a hero of his time. Yet, he had ended-up with a grandson like Jun Mo Xie.

Grandpa Jun sighed weakly as he recalled his other two grandchildren… if only they were still alive. Then, would he have pampered this one-and-only surviving bloodline until this point? He let out a self-deprecating laugh.

He hadn’t cried when his son Wu Hui had died in the battle. Instead, he had boasted that his son was a brave hero. He had again held back his tears when his two grandchildren Mo You and Mo Chou too had died in the battlefield; as they were valiant heroes. He had cried for the first time when Wu Yi was crippled for life. However, he still had hope. He still had a grandson who could continue the Jun family’s bloodline. Unfortunately, the grandson had turned out to be a worthless bastard — a smear on the wall that couldn’t be developed in any manner.

[What can I do about it?] he thought.

Jun Zhan Tian hid his emotions, and asked the Young Master in a dismissive manner, ”I heard that you fell off the bed last night… and fainted? Is that true?!”

”Huh?” Jun Xie raised his head. His heart was partially doubtful, but he had finally started to understand the situation. He could answer any question through the memories left in his mind; except for this one. In fact, this question had been constantly lingering in his mind. He hadn’t found anything out of the ordinary with this body since the time he had woken-up. So, how did he ended-up being transmigrated into this body? Now, he could vaguely guess… this bastard had fallen off his bed in his sleep, and had ended-up being killed by the fall!

This person was truly a champion among debauchees; he was worth idolizing. To think that one could die from falling off the bed…

An expert such as this one must be treated with respect! And, Jun Xie’s heart was filled with sincere admiration for the unparalleled genius whose body he had acquired!

Grandpa Jun started at him, and pounded at the table, ”What huh… huh?” He couldn’t help but shout as he saw Jun Xie’s slothful figure, ”You worthless thing! You don’t even realize that someone was trying to assassinate you. If it wasn’t for the protection I arranged for you… you would’ve been having an audience with the King of Hell at this moment! Look at you… can’t you tell me anything at all?”

It seemed that this kid was assassinated. Jun Xie secretly curled his mouth, [Your so-called protection was only so-so. Your beloved grandson has already left this world while being under your ‘protection’.]

Grandpa Jun was surprised to see his reaction. His idiot of a Grandson had a cowardly nature. So, how could he remain so quiet? He would’ve made a huge fuss in the past upon hearing news about someone trying to assassinate him. But now, he just stood there looking slightly pale. Moreover, he seemed unbothered, and his body seemed to emanate a faint aura of coldness.

Grandpa Jun couldn’t believe that a chilling aura was being emanated out of his disappointing grandson’s body, [Am I seeing things now?]
