113 Dugu Pays A Visi (1/2)
A sharp whistling sound was heard as a blue meteor flew through the sky and landed directly inside Jun Mo Xie's small courtyard. Jun Zhan Tian has arrived!
Once he returned, the old man was immediately taken aback. He had been all but certain that his grandson would be captured if not tormented during the time he had been delayed.
Although his grandson had made tremendous progress as of late, in the end, he still had not broken through to the Ninth Level Xuan Qi. Getting beaten and captured was to be expected; he had already steeled his heart to see his grandson missing and have made plans to vent his wrath on Dugu Zong Heng. How could he have anticipated that he would see this kind of situation?
Delight? Astonishment? Horror?!
Isn't this too surreal?!
His grandson was sitting there safe and sound, but the seven pups from the Dugu Family were lying unconscious on the floor… Well, the old man realized that that wasn't exactly right; the seven individuals weren't unconscious but were rather completely wasted.
Jun Zhan Tian rubbed his eyes, still not quite convinced by what he's seeing, and he understood even less. He was curious as to how his grandson had achieved such a flawless victory; not only did he get his captors to drink, but he also got them all drunk…
Although the old man knew that his grandson's wine was strong, he realized that he had still underestimated just how strong he was was based on the scene before his eyes.
Seeing that his grandchild was alright, Grandpa Jun said a few words before he leisurely walked away with his hands clasped behind his back. Remarkably, he did not have to get personally involved…
When Dugu Zong Heng and Dugu Wu Di returned home, sure enough, they were informed that the seven grandsons had long since left in a fit of rage to find Jun Mo Xie and became even more regretful. Seeing Jun Zhan Tian that way, if those seven grandsons had really gone overboard, the Dugu Family and the Jun Family might really have to fight to the death.
Sigh. If I hadn't been so impulsive and had first found Jun Zhan Tian to vent my anger, maybe…
Father and son looked at each other in dismay, as if the pair was sitting on pins and needles. In a contest of strength, the Dugu Family would naturally not fear the Jun Family, but they still would not be able to afford the two families becoming irreconcilable enemies!
Besides, Jun Zhan Tian already had nothing left to lose, and would not go down alone even in death. If the two families enter a blood feud, not only will the Dugu Family suffer Jun Family's wrath, but the entire Tianxiang Kingdom will be embroiled in the conflict…
The situation had really gone to shit!
Dugu Zong Heng paced back and forth inside the main hall like a cat on a hot tin roof. Standing to the side, Great General Dugu Wu Di's eyes blurred from watching, but he did not dare make a sound.
The uneasy father and son pair finally felt something was wrong when they saw the sun setting in the west. How come they still haven't returned? These kids couldn't have possibly been so tactless as to have crippled Jun Mo Xie during his capture, and then run into the old codger, who in a fit of anger…
Oh my god! Jun Zhan Tian wouldn't have lost his sense of reason, right?
As both father and son had reached the same conclusion, they exchanged glances and saw the same fear suddenly filled each other's eyes.
Just then, pounding footsteps were heard as a bodyguard hurriedly ran over. ”Reporting to the master, Jun Family's Jun Mo Xie had sent someone to make a delivery.”
”Bring it forward!” Dugu Zong Heng had a sense of foreboding. However, since Jun Mo Xie had sent this item, it meant that the youngster didn't experience any major mishap. Feeling slightly relieved, he spun around and sat down on a wooden chair.
What Jun Mo Xie delivered was a very small bundle wrapped in cloth. Dugu Zong Heng lightly squeezed the package in his hand before his complexion rapidly changed, swinging his arm back and swept various items off of the side table.
”Wastes! A bunch of useless wastes!”
Dugu Zong Heng violently jumped up before delivering a flying kick to Great General Dugu Wu Di's body.
”Look at this troop of monkeys you've raised up!”
The old man pointed with trembling fingers.
”It was seven against one, but they had somehow managed to all be captured! Even the family's jade pendants have been sent back! Shameful! What a shameful display”
Caught completely by surprise, Dugu Wu Di clutched his buttocks and howled in pain, cursing in his heart.
What do you mean 'I've raised a bunch of monkeys?' Aren't those seven also your grandson?
The items Jun Mo Xie returned were precisely to Dugu Family's hereditary jade pendants that the seven Dugu brothers carried on their persons and served as a symbol of their identities. They were also accompanied by a small note.
”The seven Dugu brothers are staying as guests of my Jun Family, Since we're getting along so well, the brothers will return in two or three months. Senior Dugu and Great General Dugu, you can rest assured.”
”Guests? Return after two or three months? Rest assured?”
Dugu Zong Heng was so angry that his nose was crooked.
”Wu Yi! Head out immediately and bring those good-for-nothings back for me! I'm going to skin each and every one of them alive!”
Dugu Wu Di moved as if he had received a pardon and shot out of the door like an arrow. Immediately after, a cacophony of hurried movement came from the courtyard before the sound of a horse galloping was heard fading into the distance.
