That’s right, this person is Liu Jinjing.
"Cousin, are you okay?" He rubbed the place where he was hit with a grimace, and continued to walk towards Lingxin.
Lingxin was full of anger and was just worrying that no one had time to vent her anger when Liu Jinjing came in.
"Liu Jinjing, where were you just now? And, you are so attentive when you have nothing to do on weekdays. Where were you when I was bullied by those bitches today!"
"No, cousin, you misunderstood me. It's not that I don't want to accompany you, but that Jun Zan trapped me in the house, and I tried every means to get out. I went to find you as soon as I got out." Worried that Ling Xin would be angry, he explained sincerely.
But Lingxin was so angry at the moment that he could not be calmed down by just two words of explanation.
"What about after I come back? It's been so long since you came here. Do you still have me, your cousin, in your heart? I'm telling you, Liu family, if anything happens to me, I want all nine generations of your Liu family to be buried with me!"
These words made Liu Jinjing feel a little chilled, but he still kept a smile on his face and coaxed Lingxin.
"Cousin, isn't it enough that I was wrong? I know you are angry now, and you have the right to hit me and scold me. As long as you can calm down, I can do anything." He leaned forward, handed his head to Lingxin, and then closed his eyes resignedly.
"Cousin, hit me now, don't be angry. If you get sick from anger, I will be sad."
Lingxin raised her hands high and tried to let them fall, but finally stopped.
It’s not that I’m soft-hearted, but someone is coming.
With hurried steps and uneven breathing, he stood at the door, "Jun Qianshi, the outer doctor of the Jun Mansion, wants to see Miss Lingxin."
He bowed his head and looked serious. Although his words were stiff, he was a little nervous. This couldn't be blamed on Jun Qianshi. He was only an outer sect doctor. He usually dealt with thick-skinned outer sect disciples. It was not his turn to receive distinguished guests like Ling Xin. This time, the maid happened to be looking for the ninth elder and the pharmacist in a hurry, but couldn't find them. When she heard that he was also a pharmacist, he was sent to fill in the gap.
He was also very nervous at the moment.
Ling Xin's suppressed anger was aroused again by Jun Qianshi, and she became furious.
"Outer sect pharmacist? Well, your Jun family is really great. They actually sent a rough-serving pharmacist to me for my health. Haha, really good, really good!" What did their Jun family think of her, Ling Xin? A servant or a maid? They actually sent an outer sect pharmacist to me. Who are they looking down on
"Don't be angry, cousin. You'll get sick if you keep getting angry. I know some medical skills, so why don't you let me take a look at you first?" Liu Jinjing said flatteringly. He was originally worried about how to appease Lingxin. Unexpectedly, this ready-made opportunity came.
He didn't dare to compete with the great pharmacist of Jun Mansion, but he still looked down on this outer sect pharmacist.
In a family, although there is only one word difference between the outer sect and the inner sect, the actual difference is as huge as heaven and earth.
To put it nicely, they are called outer disciples; to put it bluntly, they are a group of thugs, collateral relatives and outsiders who do odd jobs.
That status is sometimes even lower than that of the maids of their young ladies and wives.
"Cousin, don't be so excited. This is the Jun family after all." When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Even if there is something, you have to wait until they leave and return to their own territory.
If they really anger the Jun family, they will not end up well.
Although Lingxin is willful, she is not a heartless person.
With a cold snort, he sat back in the chair.
Seeing this, Liu Jinjing immediately took two steps forward and felt Lingxin's pulse.
The pulse was sometimes slow and sometimes fast, and it was indeed abnormal. But I couldn't figure out where the abnormality came from.
This pulse is indeed very strange.
Liu Jinjing's brows were sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed, and he remained silent for a long time.
Ling Xin was getting a little impatient. "Tell me how I am feeling." What did this half-hearted look mean
Although her cousin was a little down and out, he had some accomplishments in medicine and alchemy, so she still trusted his medical skills.
Seeing his serious expression, Lingxin felt a little uneasy.
Could it be that that damn woman really had given her some deadly poison
"Cousin, don't worry, it shouldn't be a big deal." He said this with a guilty conscience, because he really hadn't made a diagnosis, but he didn't want to lose face in front of his cousin, so he could only say this.
Fortunately, although this cousin is willful, she has always trusted his medical skills.
"I told you I was fine, but Junzan didn't believe me and used this as an excuse..."
"Cousin, why don't you let the doctor come in to take a look? After all, he was sent by the Jun family." Liu Jinjing spoke at the right time, interrupting Ling Xin's words. After all, in someone else's territory, there are ears behind the walls, so it's not good to offend too much.
"Oh, you have the nerve to assign a doctor who treats slaves to me. Even if he is from the Jun family, even if he is the master of the family, he cannot treat me so lightly! You, and the one at the door, get out of here!"
He glared at the maids and servants who were shivering in the corner and said angrily.
When the maids and servants heard these words, they fled the scene as if they had been pardoned.
Jun Qianshi sighed helplessly and retreated.
"Cousin, since you said I'm fine, then come with me to find Jun Ge... Jun Zan." Isn't it just going to the treasure house? Jun Zan told her about that place.
Thinking of Ling'er's methods, Liu Jinjing hesitated.
"Cousin, don't you love me the most? I've been bullied like this, do you still want to stop me from taking revenge like that old man?"
Liu Jinjing wanted to say a few words of comfort, but Lingxin did not give him the chance.
"Anyway, I'm going to go today. If you still have feelings for me, your cousin, you can go with me. Otherwise, you can leave on your own. I don't need your protection anymore." Lingxin knew Liu Jinjing's thoughts very well. Since she said so, Liu Jinjing could only go along with her...
There were dark clouds and faint thunder and lightning in the sky above the backyard of Jun’s house.
In the clouds, a man in a black python robe stood up, and beside him, a young man was kneeling.
"My Lord, according to my investigation, the old Lord is most likely in this mansion. However, this mansion is extraordinary. I have come to report this to you, and please make the decision, my Lord."
The feud between the Jun family and the demon world has a long history.
It is said that the two families had a grudge against each other hundreds of years ago. Although they seemed to be at peace on the surface, they were fighting openly and secretly behind the scenes, and they often tripped each other up.
However, the current Jun family is no longer comparable to the past.
Apart from Mr. Jun, there is probably no other decent talent in the Jun family.
And now that the Demon Lord has returned, the Jun family may not dare to act so presumptuously anymore.
Mr. Jun chose to come out at this time, probably because he was worried that the Jun family would be destroyed by these unfilial descendants.
"Jun family." Those cold words did not contain any emotional fluctuations. His cold eyes looked straight ahead but never focused, as if there was nothing in this world that he could take seriously.
A strand of silver hair floated in the wind, flickering in front of the pair of blood-red eyes, appearing enchanting and cold.
The Nine Nether Demon Lord was born with red eyes, like the fire from another world, able to see through everything and burn all illusions.
The color of blood, otherwise impure, addictive at first sight, hell at second sight.
Without saying anything, he disappeared into thin air the next moment.
"No, my lord, please tell me what I should do." Without the lord's order, should he follow or wait
This is not easy to do.
"Wait." A cold and hard word came from the void. Although it was only one word, it was full of majesty and made people feel awe.
"I obey your command." He knelt in the direction where the voice came from with a respectful expression.
Yao Lao, holding Xia Junyu, finally found the treasure pavilion, but just as they got there, Ling Xin and Liu Jinjing also arrived.
Lingxin saw the figure in front of her from afar and stopped abruptly.
"Cousin, what's wrong..." Before Liu Jinjing could finish his words, a white and tender hand covered his mouth.
There is a faint floral scent on the palm of my hand. I don't know what flower it is, but it is particularly charming.
He put his other hand to his mouth as if to keep quiet, "Shh." He raised his eyebrows forward, signaling Liu Jinjing to pay attention.
Following Lingxin's movements, Liu Jinjing also saw Yao Lao and Xia Junyu who arrived before them.
He reached out and pulled Lingxin's sleeve, motioning her to go back.
After failing to gain any advantage over others time and again, he thought it would be better to stay away from them.
Looking at this group of people, they seem to be from a prominent background.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be in Jun's house and be so fearless.
When he first entered the Jun family, he was also stunned by the magnificent building.
But these people were calm and composed, as if they had seen this before, no, to be exact, they were used to it.
To have such knowledge, he must be from a big family.
Lingxin understood Liu Jinjing's intention to ask her to retreat, but she chose to ignore it.
Although this is not in the Ling family, it is also in the Jun family.
The head of the Jun family treats me like his own daughter. If something really happens to me, he will definitely not stand idly by.
The Patriarch of the Jun Family is not a half-baked person like Jun Zan. Looking at the mainland, the Patriarch of the Jun Family is also a leader in cultivation. If things really get to that point, that woman will definitely be in trouble.
Because she had the support of the Jun family, Lingxin had completely forgotten her previous fear of Ling'er and began to think about murdering her again.
So, some people just refuse to change their bad habits and are unwilling to turn back even when they hit the wall.
"Let's stay put and follow them. Then, we'll find a chance to strike." She had suffered losses in the past when she faced the enemy head-on. Now the enemy was in the open and she was in the dark, so she had all the advantages.
Her father taught her that no matter whether it was a good trick or a bad trick, whoever could win was a strong one.
At this moment, the entire ground around the treasure pavilion began to tremble.
The violent shaking seemed to spread from the treasure pavilion, and everything and everyone on the ground was swaying.
"What's going on?"
"What happened?"
"Was it an earthquake?"
The entire Jun family felt this vibration, but the difference was that the amplitude of the vibration gradually weakened depending on the distance.
Feeling this vibration, Yao Lao's expression became noticeably serious.
"Grandpa, has something happened to my mother?" Xia Junyu was a little nervous and subconsciously grabbed the clothes on Yao Lao's shoulders with both hands.
"Although Grandpa doesn't know what magic weapon caused this, it must have touched the core of some extraordinary magic weapon array." Yao Lao knew that his grandson was worried about his mother and didn't want to tell him this. But this child was so smart and sensible, he really couldn't hide it from him.
Moreover, such a big commotion would surely soon alarm the old men of the Jun family. Even if he wanted to hide it, he would not be able to.
"Grandpa, what should we do? Yu'er is worried about mother." Xia Junyu stared at the front motionlessly. He seemed to be no different from usual, but his clenched hands silently told of his fear.
Since he was born, he has never been afraid of anything. But today, he is really afraid. He is afraid that the woman will get into trouble, get hurt, or leave him...
"Grandson, don't worry too much. Don't you know how powerful your mother is? Although grandpa doesn't know the current situation inside, I dare to assure you that your mother will be fine. Grandpa is good at fortune-telling. Your mother is a blessed girl and will definitely live a long life."
Yao Lao said this with a guilty conscience, because he was just making up stories about fortune-telling, just to comfort his grandson, but he really believed in that girl and believed she had a way to get out of this predicament.
"Grandpa, is there any way to let me in? I want to help my mother and stay with her." The place where they were standing at the moment was the entrance to the treasure pavilion, which was above the rune pattern.
"This rune formation can only be activated by the Jun family bloodline."
"Is there no other way? Can't you just smash it?"
"..." Grandson, this is an advanced rune formation, as solid as ten thousand year old black iron.
Break it? What a joke. Moreover, such a high-level rune, most people would admire it, but you actually want to break it! After hearing what Xia Junyu said, Yao Lao's mouth twitched unconsciously. For some reason, the face of his unfilial disciple appeared in his mind again.
If that guy is here, he should be able to do it. Bah, bah, bah, what is he thinking about? If that paralyzed-faced apprentice really comes, won’t he be caught again? It’s scary to think about it...
"Cousin, be careful. What happened?" Due to such violent shaking, Lingxin and Liu Jinjing were swaying from side to side and could hardly stand steadily.
Fortunately, there were rockery around, which not only provided support but also shielded their figures.
"Damn it, it must be that bitch making trouble again. I didn't expect that she would still be so arrogant even in the Jun family's territory. This time, she has alarmed all the people in the Jun family. Let's see how she can escape!" He spoke in a vicious tone, and every word was emphasized. Although Ling'er's figure could not be seen, his eyes seemed to be filled with poison, staring straight ahead. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, revealing obvious pride.
"What my cousin said is true, but should we leave here first? I don't know what happened in there, but it's a place of trouble, so it's better to stay away from it." With such a big commotion, people from the Jun family will definitely come here soon. If they see them here and misunderstand something, it will be bad.
Ling Xin has the support of the Ling family, but he has nothing and cannot afford to risk his life.
At this critical moment, Lingxin felt disappointed when she heard Liu Jinjing's discouraging words.
"If you're scared, just go away. Stop buzzing around my ears like a headless fly. You bitch, can't you be a bit more manly? You're so timid when doing anything. No wonder your father looks down on you. You're really useless."
"You!" Liu Jinjing was a little angry after hearing the repeated ridicule, but he dared not say anything. He really couldn't afford to offend this woman.
On the other side, Lu Ziyu was sitting in the room. He felt his eyelids twitching slightly and began to feel uneasy.
Just then, there was a sudden hurried knock on the door.
"Madam, madam, something bad has happened." It was Qingmei's voice. Qingmei had followed her since she was a child and had her own character. She rarely showed such a panicked look.
Coupled with the vague feeling of uneasiness in his heart, Lu Ziyu frowned instantly.
"Come in and talk."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a creaking sound, Qingmei pushed the door open and walked in, running to Lu Ziyu's side in two or three steps.
"Madam, something has happened. The servants came to report that the Ninth Elder has died."
"What!" Lu Ziyu stood up suddenly and his eyes widened.
Although the Ninth Elder had the lowest cultivation level among the elders, he was also a master of the Jun family. How could he die suddenly
"What happened? Who did it? Where is the body? Has it been brought back?"
"Ma'am, the body of the Ninth Elder is in the front yard. He was killed there."
"What did you say! How is it possible!" The Jun family is actually the Jun family.
Lu Ziyu originally thought that the head of the family sent the Ninth Elder to perform some mission somewhere else, but he met a tough guy and died. She never thought that the Ninth Elder actually died in the Jun family.
Even if he died in Junzhou, the probability should be very small.
Who on earth is so bold as to kill the elders on Jun family’s territory!
Could it be that this matter has something to do with Zan'er
He grabbed Qingmei's arm and his face turned pale.
"Is it true? Was it done by those people brought in by Zan'er? Is it true?" I hope it has nothing to do with Zan'er. The Jun family is very sensitive now and cannot withstand any disturbance.
Qingmei frowned, her head gradually drooped, and she sighed and said: "Yes, madam, it was those people that the young master brought back. According to the servants' account, it was an old man and a child." In fact, the servants told her very clearly that the Ninth Elder was killed by the child, but she did not believe it.
I thought that maybe the servant was too scared and must have seen it wrong, so he said that.
Who is the Ninth Elder? How could an elder of the Jun family be killed by a little kid? This statement would make people laugh.
Aren’t there also a woman besides the old man and the child
Just as Lu Ziyu was about to ask, he felt his body tremble and subconsciously held onto the table with his palm.
"Madam, be careful." Qingmei staggered forward a few steps and supported Lu Ziyu's body. However, she herself was not standing very steadily.
"What's going on? The noise seems to be coming from the direction of the treasure pavilion." Lu Ziyu is also a person with cultivation. Some of his sensory abilities are much stronger than those of ordinary people, so he can clearly identify the source of the vibration.
When Qingmei heard the word "treasure pavilion", her brows furrowed even deeper.
The third young master and that woman went to the treasure pavilion.
Could this be...
"Qingmei, where is Zan'er? Where is Zan'er?" Lu Ziyu also noticed something was wrong and asked immediately.
Qingmei was a little afraid to speak, her eyes were wandering, and she didn't dare to look directly into Lu Ziyu's eyes.
"The Third Young Master... The Third Young Master... He took that woman... to the Treasure Pavilion..."
"What!" Lu Ziyu felt dazzled and almost fainted.
"Madam, please don't be anxious. The old man hasn't returned yet, you must cheer up. You are the pillar of the Jun family now. Let's not think of the worst first. It may not be that something happened to the third young master. Maybe this noise was caused by the old man coming out of retreat. Even if this noise was caused by the third young master, we can't admit it. Not only that, we have to think of a way to conceal this matter quickly. Although the Jun family is in a sensitive period, sensitive periods are also troubled times. In the past few days, various forces have poured into Junzhou openly and secretly. Those people are mixed, and there may be a few people with evil intentions who sneak into the Jun family to cause trouble."
"Yes, you are right. The more times like this, the more I have to stay calm. No matter if it is Zan'er's fault or not, Zan'er cannot make any mistakes." She put all the weight on Jun Zan. No matter what, Jun Zan cannot make any mistakes.
It must be perfect and obtain the position of heir to the Jun family.
Otherwise, everything will really be over.
She tidied her messy hair, concealed the panic on her face, and in a moment she regained her calm demeanor.
"Qingmei, come with me to the treasure pavilion to see who these villains are that dare to cause trouble in my family!" Her eyes were sharp and full of murderous intent.
Qingmei also said seriously, "Yes, ma'am."
Inside the treasure house, the ground was shaking and the entire illusion seemed to be collapsing.
"You crazy woman, what on earth have you done? How could this happen? How could this happen? It's over, it's over now, my father will definitely not let me go. You're a lunatic, you're a lunatic!"
Jun Zan looked at the collapsing surroundings and yelled at Ling'er.
At this moment, Ling'er's purple clothes had been dyed red, as if she was a monster reborn from the fire, stepping on blood.
Jun Zan regretted that he should not have brought this woman to the heart of the illusion, let alone pushed her down.
There was a Thousand Swords Formation in the Heart of the Illusion. I thought this woman was doomed. Unexpectedly, she came out alive. Moreover, she took out the sword heart from the Thousand Swords Formation.
Without the sword heart, the Ten Thousand Swords Formation would be useless, and then the heart of the illusion would collapse.
This time, he really caused a huge disaster.
The purple dress looked unusually gorgeous, perhaps because of the blood stain. The spiritual flower between her eyebrows was so gorgeous that it seemed to be dripping with blood.
Ling'er's body floated above the Ten Thousand Swords Formation. The precious swords that were supposed to be stuck in the sword pits now floated beside Ling'er, like a rain of swords, waiting for the master's order. As long as the order was given, the countless swords would pierce the person who was locked into a sieve.
"Master Jun, have you forgotten what I once said? Since you insist on seeking death, then this lady is happy to fulfill your wish!"
"No... Don't kill me... I really know I was wrong... I don't dare anymore, I'll take you to get the treasure... I'll give you the best... No no no... All the treasures of the Jun family, everything, all of them are for you... I just beg you not to kill me... Don't kill me..."
Looking at the cold blades surrounding Zao Ling'er, Jun Zan felt an unprecedented fear. He regretted it. He really regretted it. He didn't want to die. He hadn't gotten the Jun family yet. There were still many things he hadn't done. He really didn't want to die.
He shouldn't have provoked this woman, let alone brought her to the Jun family. He was wrong. He really had never regretted anything like he did now.
Ling'er saw Jun Zan's fear, terror, and even despair.
There is no mercy, because people like Jun Zan don't deserve mercy.
"Do you know you're wrong? Haha. No, actually you don't know. I gave you a chance, but what can I do? You didn't cherish it. There's a road to heaven but you didn't take it. There's no door to hell but you insisted on going there yourself. You're so impatient to die, how can I not fulfill your wish?"
The corners of his mouth turned up, forming a beautiful arc. A smile, and the flowers of hell bloomed.
"A mountain of swords and rain, if there is love, go ahead."
This sword skill was something she made up casually, but it sounds pretty good.
At a command, thousands of swords turned into rain, and the sword tips as dense as a swarm of bees rushed towards Jun Zan.
"No, don't!"
At this critical moment, a sharp voice came from the audience.
"stop!"
