129 Talking Big (2/2)
”Ah? What about it?! This isn't a small matter ah, he had just started walking on the right path, and now he's going back to his old ways, and?” Guan Qing Han was still raging with fury.
”Oh, that's something that I know about; I allowed him to go.” Jun Wu Yi was finally waking up from his personal thoughts, and hence replied in a soft voice.
”Even you knew about this? But you still allowed him to go there? You….” Guan Qing Han's eyes widened in shock, and suddenly she was eyeing Jun Wu Yi in rather confused manner, unable to understand his reply.
”Qing Han, you are mistaken. The second prince invited him for a talk, and as chance has it, the prince requested that the meeting be held in the Spirit Fog Lake's Ni Cheng pavilion.” Jun Wu Yi smiled warmly: ”Qing Han…. Mo Xie has actually become very sensible now.”
”Sensible…..” Guan Qing Han was somewhat dumbstruck. After all the years of watching Jun Mo Xie undertaking all kinds of nefarious tasks, which were an indignation to all civilized laws under the heavens, it was hard for her to interpret that Jun Wu Yi could call that debauchee 'very sensible'!
”I suppose I was mistaken, but I understand now….” still muddled, Guan Qing Han whispered, sighed and turned away: ”It turns out that I have a lot to catch up to….”
”Yes, there have been a lot of changes, and you'll naturally need to bring yourself up to speed.” Jun Wu Yi stated lightly as she was leaving, and he once again immersed himself in his new form of practice.
Guan Qing Han's footsteps paused for a moment, but then she continued to walk.
Jun Wu Yi sighed and whispered: ”Uncle Pang, please come in.”
Lao Pang quickly came in and stationed himself in front of Jun Wu Yi.
”Uncle Pang, I have a task that requires your assistance.” Jun Wu Yi rubbed his face with both his hands, and it seemed like he was having a hard time in making the final decision.
”What is it? Please give me your command third master.” Lao Pang's face was solemn. This was going to Jun Wu Yi's first command as the head of the family, and no matter what, Lao Pang would want to execute it to perfection.
”There was news from the ministry offices that a large group of disabled children have escaped from the …. Huang Hua Hall. Pitiful!” Jun Wu Yi had finally made up his mind: ”You please investigate how many of them are alive, and use the family's resources to help them set themselves up for a better future… they are still just kids.”
”Yes, I'll get to it.” Lao Pang finished and turned around to leave.
”If you can do this secretively, then do not expose your identity. If you face any obstruction, then please reveal that it was done upon my orders.” Jun Wu Yi looked up, and his eyes reveal a hint of sharpness.
~ Ni Cheng Pavilion~
The huge third floor of the building was almost empty, and only a very few people were leisurely sitting there, dressed in graceful attires. Accomplished scholars, middle-aged business men, some youngsters….. even if their clothes weren't expensive, their actions were enough to reveal that they all belonged to high-class social backgrounds.
”Er Ye, Jun Mo Xie is nothing but a debauchee and a spendthrift. Er ye, there was no need for you to personally come and greet that boy face-to-face; but now that Er Ye is present to grace him, that kid will start talking big.”
The speaker was approximately twenty years old by the looks of it, and looked rather pale. His body was extremely thin, and his hands were leisurely swaying a hand fan. Even though his identity was unknown, it was obvious from his body language that this person belonged to an influential family.
”Brother Er Ye, there is no need to meet Jun Mo Xie face to face; as younger brother just stated, Jun Mo Xie is nothing more than a debauchee and a spendthrift, and completely incompetent otherwise. As for the other aspects, he is completely useless and is of no value to us. But yes, he does have a powerful family behind him, so we should rather focus on the elders, like Jun Zhan Tian maybe.” The speaker was in his fifties or sixties by the looks of it, and spoke his words in a slow pace.
”Even Jun Zhan Tian is no good; what is he really?” the 'younger brother' chuckled in disagreement: ”Although Jun Zhan Tian occupies a high position, but in terms of Xuan Qi levels, he just a Sky Xuan expert, at best; that's it. If you wished to send him to the heavens, then I could request my father, and he could swat him aside like a fly!”
This remark made the second prince sit upright in his chair, and his eyebrows suddenly wrinkled.
His frowned and replied in an angry tone: ”Just a Sky Xuan, that's it?!! Even if you tear apart this country, how many Sky Xuan experts will you find? Although you are lucky to be borne into a large family, which has a lot of advanced Xuan experts, but after all said and done, the Jiang Hu Family's strength is nothing compared to the military might of the Jun Family. Perhaps if you had considered that, then you would have known that Jun Zhan Tian could swat your father aside like a fly if he wished it!”
