Chapter 38 - 38 38 Young Master Jun

?38: Chapter 38: Young Master Jun 38: Chapter 38: Young Master Jun “Who exactly is this young master?”

“Didn’t you hear that big man call him ‘Your Highness’?”

“Eh?

Now that you mention it, I suddenly feel like I’ve seen this young master before.”

“Could he also be a prince?”

“Impossible, right?

He didn’t even regard the Fifth Prince highly before.”

Guests at Cliff Inn were abuzz with discussion.

It took them a long time to recover from the shock of witnessing Guan Yu kneel on one knee before Qin Jun, a gesture that had previously stunned the entire inn.

The maiden in green looked at Qin Jun with eyes sparkling with zeal, much like a wolf eyeing a lamb.

Qin Jun hurriedly gestured for Guan Yu to stand up and then introduced him to the people behind him, “This is the man of great righteousness, Guan Yu, the ‘Guan Yunchang’!”

Qin Jun had just finished telling the story of Guan Yu warming up his wine before killing Hua Xiong, which left the children in awe of Guan Yu, and even Yan Mobei stared at Guan Yu with shock.

Having managed the chamber of commerce for over twenty years, it was Yan Mobei’s first encounter with a burly man of such imposing presence, who, just by standing still, emanated a sense of invincibility.

It was hard to fathom the extent of Guan Yu’s strength.

So honorable and righteous!

Guan Yu’s eyes brightened; such a description flattered him greatly, and immediately his fondness for Qin Jun soared to its peak.

The more Guan Yu observed Qin Jun, the more he felt he resembled the benefactor of his past, which made his gaze toward Qin Jun all the more benevolent.

Meanwhile, the innkeeper of Cliff Inn furrowed his brows as he looked toward Qin Jun, lost in thought.

“She is called Daji, a being of the same realm as you, and this is Roaring Sky Dog.

Never underestimate it.”

As Qin Jun introduced them to Guan Yu, Yan Mobei secretly shed tears.

Am I even less than a dog?

Why not introduce me…

Stroking his beard, Guan Yu stared at Daji with a slight chill in his eyes, clearly sensing that Daji was not of the Human Clan.

As for Roaring Sky Dog, he was still unable to see through it.

At the same time, Guan Yu’s impression of Qin Jun changed.

Considering Qin Jun had subdued a powerful being of the Transforming Void Realm like Daji, Qin Jun surely couldn’t be as inadequate as the rumors suggested.

With him included, who else in the Qianyue Kingdom could stand against them?

At this thought, Guan Yu couldn’t help but feel an upsurge of pride.

He had always been a warrior, and although he had made his promise in the past, his heart, yearning to gallop across the battlefield, had not cooled.

“Waiter, bring the dishes!

Serve the best dishes this inn has to offer!”

Qin Jun called out boldly, and Yan Mobei’s face turned bitter, for Qin Jun was spending his money.

“Haha, it’s our inn’s honor to host such a formidable guest today.

As a representative of the inn, I’m inviting all guests, as a way to welcome the young master and the senior!” said the innkeeper with a laugh, prompting applause from all the guests.

Qin Jun turned back and looked deeply at the innkeeper, chuckling, “Innkeeper, such generosity!

I’ve made a friend!”

If an ordinary person had said this, the staff at Cliff Inn would have laughed it off.

But coming from him, it seemed entirely appropriate.

Qin Jun himself was no mediocre figure.

Add to that the subduing of a fiercely imposing person like Guan Yu, and the guests began to see him as a major figure without even realizing it.

“To become friends with the young master is my honor.

From today on, all your expenses at Cliff Inn will be on me,” the innkeeper declared, patting his chest with a laugh, causing the others to look on enviously at Qin Jun.

He was only the manager of Cliff Inn, not the true owner, so he could only take care of Qin Jun’s expenses.

However, that was still a significant amount.

Even Yan Mobei couldn’t help but look at Qin Jun in amazement.

The Yanbei Chamber of Commerce had been established nearly a hundred years ago in the capital, and he knew Cliff Inn had no small origin.

He hadn’t expected Qin Jun to earn the respect of Cliff Inn.

However, looking at Guan Yu again, the shock in his heart lessened.

The image and presence of the big man were hugely impactful!

The dishes were quickly served, and Qin Jun and Guan Yu got along better as they talked.

Knowing Guan Yu’s character, Qin Jun deliberately narrated the feats of Zhao Zilong rescuing his lord in a solo ride and Yue Fei’s loyal service to his country, stirring Guan Yu’s blood and making him eager to accomplish something great.

“This young man is truly extraordinary,” praised the maiden in green from not too far away, as the maidservants beside her looked longingly at Qin Jun.

Qin Jun was naturally handsome, and by passionately narrating the exploits of heroes, his image became even more imposing, winning the admiration of the other guests.

Such deep knowledge of heroic deeds at a young age.

To amplify this effect, Qin Jun mythologized the strengths of heroes like Zhao Zilong and Yue Fei, describing feats such as Zhao Zilong riding solo deep into five million troops, cutting his way in and out seven times without anyone able to stop him.

“Oh yes, Yan San, this boy is a ‘Spiritual Genius’ with wind attributes, but alas, I do not possess any wind-attributed cultivation methods.

Do you have any?” Qin Jun called Yan San over and whispered.

Rare attributes like spiritual roots are known as ‘Spiritual Genius’ and are said to exist only in legends.

Upon hearing this, Yan Mobei almost jumped from surprise.

The other guests, who had been listening to Qin Jun’s stories, were equally dumbfounded.

A ‘Spiritual Genius’?

“Come here, let me check!” Guan Yu said with a frown, understanding the rarity of such a gifted ‘Spiritual Genius’.

The maiden in green lost her composure and crushed her teacup, then suddenly turned around, her beautiful eyes full of shock.

Yan San obediently walked over to Guan Yu, who then raised his right hand over his head.

A surge of spiritual power burst forth from Guan Yu’s body, making everyone in the inn feel as if they had been struck in the chest by a heavy hammer.

Qin Jun’s mouth curled into a smile, unconcerned about the news of Yan San being a ‘Spiritual Genius’ spreading.

With Guan Yu, Daji, and Roaring Sky Dog at his side, who could snatch Yan San from him?

He was building momentum, crafting a strong reputation before meeting with the emperor.

With powerful figures and a supreme genius at his side, the emperor would have to think twice before directing his anger at Qin Jun in the future.

Shortly, Guan Yu removed his hand and with a complex look sighed, “Indeed, he has a pure wind spiritual root.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place was astir.

They could feel the pride emanating from Guan Yu’s very bones and also believed that Guan Yu would not lie.

“As it happens, I once came across a wind-attributed cultivation method by chance.

I’ll pass it on to him later,” Guan Yu declared confidently, to Qin Jun’s delight.

Yan Mobei was ecstatic, realizing what it meant to have a genius with ‘Spiritual Genius’ aptitude.

The Yan Family was on the rise!

But the thought of the Yan Family’s past neglect of Yan San made him feel ashamed.

The boy was not a waste; it was their Yan Family that was blinded!

Had it not been for meeting Qin Jun, Yan Mobei might have discarded him as a loss; the thought filled him with dread and remorse for nearly disgracing his ancestors!

“Haha, let’s drink and dine!”

Qin Jun waved his hand and laughed, while Guan Yu smiled and stroked his beard, more and more satisfied with Qin Jun.

Guan Yu marveled at Qin Jun’s foresight in securing such a talented ‘Spiritual Genius’ well in advance—a vision he couldn’t help but admire.

This kid has the potential to be an emperor!

Soon enough, some guests couldn’t sit still any longer and carried their drinks over to greet Qin Jun.

Qin Jun, not one to refuse or put on airs, shared drinks and laughs with them.

When someone asked for his name, he simply smiled and said, “Just call me Young Master Jun!”

What a thrill it is to put on airs!
