NOVEL NEXT Chapter 55 She cares a lot
No one saw how Mo Wuyue appeared. It was as if, upon hearing these words, he simply lifted his head and was there.
In one glance, he was unbelievably peerless!
With just one look, everyone felt fear deep within their souls. They all lowered their heads and averted their gaze, not daring to look at Mo Wuyue for a second time. All they remembered was that he was incredibly beautiful, an absolute calamity. But no one dared to compare him to a woman because the pressure in that one glance was extremely terrifying!
Feng Tianqi’s heart trembled, and he asked, “Who are you?”
Mo Wuyue ignored him and only looked at Jun Jiu. His ink-black eyes, hidden behind a veil, were like whirlpools that dragged people in. His voice was enchanting, “Little Jiu has nine virtues: beauty, a beautiful voice, intelligence, skillful hands, good fortune, a good name, and exceptional talent.”
Mo Wuyue had used nearly every compliment he could think of, but he was still missing two.
Jun Jiu added, her lips curling, “And you’re rich and have a great body.”
Mo Wuyue: …
Jun Jiu squinted at him, as if anticipating his rebuttal, ready to give him a kick. Mo Wuyue chuckled, his laughter filled with wickedness. “Yes, rich and with a great body.”
Xiao Wu nodded solemnly from the side. As the brainless fan, her master was the best! These nine virtues were designed to be perfect for her master.
Who else had such a perfectly versatile master?
Everyone’s mouths twitched, feeling embarrassed.
The previous eight virtues aside, but a great body? Were they blind in front of this runway-like figure? However, they could only think about it quietly in their hearts. No one dared to speak it out loud, knowing it would be courting death.
Mo Wuyue’s words delighted Jun Jiu. She glanced sideways at Jun Yunsnow and Feng Tianqi and said, “Only those with a dark heart would think the name isn’t good.”
Jun Yunsnow and Feng Tianqi were left speechless.
The people around them silently nodded. That’s right! Thanks to Jun Jiu, many had reconsidered their views. The Jun Residence was the Jun Residence, and this person was this person! However, they didn’t know that both Jun Jius were the same person.
Unbeknownst to Grand Secretary Yi Rong, would she be infuriated to learn that her plot had backfired spectacularly, and the discussions in the imperial city had greatly diminished thanks to Jun Jiu’s performance?
If she were to spit blood, Jun Jiu would be more than happy to watch her do it.
Seeing Jun Jiu turn to leave, Feng Tianqi hurriedly spoke, “Wait. I wonder, Miss Jun Jiu…”
Feng Tianqi struggled to speak, as the name was exactly the same as that despicable waste he detested. But as Feng Tianqi looked at the young lady before him, he couldn’t hide his astonishment.
He offered a humble smile. “I would like to apologize for the misunderstanding earlier. Miss Jun Jiu, would you be willing to grace us with your presence at our table?”
“No. I’m not interested in blind and foolish people,” Jun Jiu replied coldly without even looking at Feng Tianqi, turning to Elder Dan Pavilion. She raised an eyebrow and asked, “Aren’t we supposed to register?”
“Right! Please come with me,” Elder Dan Pavilion turned and led the way.
Jun Jiu then looked at Mo Wuyue and said, “Let’s go.”
“Alright,” Mo Wuyue smirked. He enjoyed it when she said ‘we’ like that.
They walked away without looking back. Everyone around them admired and revered Jun Jiu. To refuse the Crown Prince so coldly, that was quite something!
Jun Yunsnow walked forward, trying to maintain her composure. She asked Feng Tianqi, “Your Highness, why did you invite her?”
“Tianqi, this Jun Jiu is no ordinary person. She presented the Vitality-Boosting Pill. Just look at her, how young she is. Elder Dan Pavilion personally registered her. Her future is limitless! She’s also named Jun Jiu, why isn’t she from your Jun family?” Feng Tianqi’s admiration was evident, leaving Jun Yunsnow astounded.
What did he mean by “not from the Jun family”?
Could it be that he wanted to marry her! Jun Yunsnow’s eyes showed a hint of killing intent, and she clenched her fist.
Anyone named Jun Jiu should die!
As they left, Jun Xiaolei ran over, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Jun Jiu. “Sister Jiu, you’re so cool!”
“Thank you for the compliment,” Jun Jiu replied with a faint smile.
Because Jun Jiu had to go with Elder Dan Pavilion to register, Jun Xiaolei could only reluctantly wave goodbye.
Jun Jiu watched her leave, her eyes showing a hint of darkness. She hoped that this lively and cute little one wouldn’t be from the Jun family. The Jun family was like a giant cesspool that would only corrupt her.
For Jun Jiu’s registration, all the scrutiny procedures were bypassed. Elder Dan Pavilion personally registered Jun Jiu and gave her an Alchemist Badge. The earlier scene had already proven that Jun Jiu was an exceptionally talented alchemist!
“Here. Starting today, your name will be recorded in all the Dan Pavilions within the Ten Nations. With this badge, you can participate in the Dan Sect’s assessment. Become a disciple of the Dan Sect! The Dan Sect is the most revered place for alchemists in this world!”
“The Dan Sect?” Jun Jiu contemplated.
Listening to Elder Dan Pavilion’s introduction, it was the largest alliance of alchemists in this world, where the most outstanding medical and alchemical skills gathered. Although Jun Jiu remained skeptical about the “most outstanding” part, she decided she would check it out when she had the time. Seeing is believing.
After completing the registration, she raised her head and saw Yun Chongjin and Yun Qiao waiting at the door. As soon as they saw her, they hurried over.
Yun Qiao’s smile brightened when she saw Jun Jiu. “Miss Jun!”
“Miss Jun, can you please come to our residence for a chat? You saved Qiao Qiao’s life, so please give Yun Mou a chance to express our gratitude properly!”
“Qiao Qiao?”
“That’s my childhood nickname.” Yun Qiao blushed slightly, and he cleared his throat, looking expectantly at Jun Jiu. “If Miss Jun doesn’t mind, you can also call me Qiao Qiao.”
“She minds,” Mo Wuyue said, dripping with sarcasm.
Mo Wuyue saw through Yun Qiao’s intentions with a single glance. Trying to hit on her right in front of him? Was he tired of living?
Yun Chongjin and Yun Qiao couldn’t help but glance at Mo Wuyue. But with a quick glance, they immediately averted their eyes. The pressure was so terrifying! It dominated and made it hard to breathe. Who was he?
And he had a different attitude when he was with Jun Jiu. They couldn’t help but wonder if he was a senior from the Jun family.
“Cough cough!” Jun Jiu cleared her throat to break the silence. “Call him Qiao Qiao; that’s fine. Young Master Yun, you invited us for a banquet, didn’t you? Lead the way.”
“Of course! Please follow me.”
Entering the Yun Residence, it was Yun Chongjin’s private residence—quiet, elegant, and with beautiful scenery. Walking in, one would feel relaxed and comfortable.
Yun Chongjin invited them to sit down, served tea himself, and smiled gracefully. “Miss Jun Jiu, you saved Qiao Qiao’s life. I am deeply indebted to you. If Miss Jun has any requests, please don’t hesitate to speak up!”
“Let’s talk about a business deal,” Jun Jiu pinched Little Five’s ear and said.
“A business deal?” Yun Chongjin became interested. “I wonder what Miss Jun Jiu means by that.”
“Alchemy pills. Your Yun family manages all the auctions in the Ten Nations, right? I will provide you with alchemy pills, and you can auction them. I can deliver a batch of alchemy pills now, and you can verify their authenticity before auctioning them. We’ll split the profits, 20% for me and 80% for you.”
“Cough cough.” Yun Chongjin choked. “Miss Jun Jiu, isn’t your share a bit too high?”
