65 Doings Of Ghosts And Gods (1/2)

Since the carriage had been destroyed, Princess Ling Meng headed back to the palace on horseback. There was an unusual sombre feeling in the atmosphere.

Murong Qian Jun jumped into action and ordered the army to escort the princess. They immediately surrounded the princess, forming a human barrier around her. Murong Qian Jun himself rode behind the escort. Deep in thought, he mused: Jun Mo Xie, that bastard, seemed to be severely injured. I wonder if he will survive? It would be good if he dies. I feel like beating him up every time I see him! He looked like such a scum who deserves it! He has such a despicable character and still dares to court Princess Ling Meng? He should know his limits!

With a grunt, he urged his horse forward and stared at the graceful figure of Princess Ling Meng in front of him. Once again, he was in awe of her beauty. He was completely captivated. All thoughts of sending someone to report an update to the Jun Family was completely forgotten...

…

”You again, old man. You have been following me like a ghost for the past three days already. Are you smitten by my handsome looks?” smirked Jun Xie. The old man was cradling Jun Xie in his arms, like how he would cradle a baby. The old man’s body was withered and bony, causing Jun Xie to feel extremely uncomfortable. He felt as if he was lying on cobblestones. Knowing that the old man was not out to harm him, Jun Xie did not bother being courteous and had a sarcastic tone to his voice.

”Pfft! What makes you think that senior would willingly waste my time to follow a pathetic wastrel like you? You keep scuttling around randomly every day and disappearing from my sight. I don’t even know how you managed to do that. But see what has happened! Serve you right! If your grandfather did not bother spending a great sum of… Wait. How did you know that I have been following you for three days?”

The old man felt indignant at Jun Xie’s tone of voice. Being together with this debauchee was already shameful enough. As he was about to rant on, the old man suddenly stopped in his tracks in surprise. He realized that something was wrong, very wrong: How did this bastard know that I was following him for three days? Could it be that my tracking skills have degraded so greatly? The disrespectful manner in which Jun Xie had spoken to him was forgotten.

”Don’t be stupid! Must you ask such a simple question? Of course, I only knew because someone told me,” said Jun Xie casually, after he thought about the answer. Although Jun Xie could still sense the old man’s tracking skills, it was still remarkable when compared to the experience of his past life. The original Jun Mo Xie might not have been able to sense the old man’s tracking skills, let alone escape from his sight.

”You are the stupid one! You are such a fool. Of course, you would not notice me huh? Who was the one that told you about me? Was it the same person that taught you how to escape from my sight?” demanded the old man. It was the first time his tracking skills were discovered! And the first time that someone he was tracking could escape from his sight! Jun Mo Xie had managed to shake him off his tail! This was extremely horrifying...

How powerful must that person be, for him to be able to do this? If he is an enemy...

”I don’t know who that person is,” countered Jun Xie. ”I have never met him before.”

”Oh… that’s expected. The person must be very powerful, but do you think you are worthy enough to meet him? And since you put it this way, I assume that the same person also taught you to escape from my sight?” The old man was biased against Jun Xie and had already presumed that this debauchee was too useless to be able to discover his tracking skills. Moreover, he was extremely confident that his ability to pursue people stealthily was topnotch. However, he still had to be careful. The old man was alarmed as he considered: Is it possible that a Supreme Divine Xuan is watching me? That must not be possible! Is it?

The more the old man thought about it, the more panicked he became.

In actual fact, the old man’s abilities were exceptionally remarkable. This was why Jun Xie, the king of assassins of his generation, had taken three whole days to deal with him!

”Yes, you are right. By the way, are you done talking already, old man? What is with all the questions? Where are you planning to bring me? You should hurry up and bring me home,” said a worried Jun Xie. Silently, he was cursing the old man: Hurry and send me home so I can use the Hong Jun Pagoda to heal myself without anybody noticing! If I were to do it here, I would be exposed. What then?

”Nonsense! You are too severely injured. I have to take care of your injuries first. By the time I send you home, you would have been dead!” chided the old man. He was still unhappy with himself: How did someone else manage to counter track me given my level of expertise? If I were to head back to the Jun Residence straight away, your grandfather would hurl countless of insults in my direction!

I would have to clean this bastard up before going back! If not, it would be too humiliating!

Soon after, they arrived at a shabby looking house. The old man quickened his footsteps and entered the house before placing Jun Xie down. He then carefully analyzed Jun Xie’s injuries from head to toe. As he analyzed, the old man became astonished!
