Chapter 287: The Sect Leader Wakes Up Grumpy Every Day (35)

“What are you afraid of?” A cold voice rang in her ears.

Jun Jiuling opened his eyes, which were as dark as night, and stared directly at her.

Shen Mubai, being looked at like this by him, temporarily forgot about the assassins outside and said with a stiff scalp, “This servant is not afraid.”

Jun Jiuling couldn’t help but sneer.

Shen Mubai thought he was mocking her, so she pretended not to hear.

Unexpectedly, Jun Jiuling just said lightly, “With this master here, you have nothing to fear.”

Shen Mubai was surprised in her heart but didn’t show it on her face.

Jun Jiuling continued to stare at her and said, “You are not allowed to refer to yourself as a servant in the future. I find it annoying.”

Shen Mubai twitched her mouth and didn’t try to fathom his unpredictable temper, obediently saying, “Yes, master.”

There were a total of three batches of assassins, all of whom were taken care of by the members of the Fire Lotus Sect. There was one masked man with an extremely weak aura who managed to sneak onto the roof of the carriage. Before he could act, Jun Jiuling dealt with him in one move, and he fell off the carriage with a miserable scream, turning into pus and blood.

Shen Mubai then realized that the rumors about Jun Jiuling in the martial arts world were not exaggerated. He was highly skilled in martial arts and proficient in using poison. Those with lower martial arts skills than him were likely killed by his poison without him needing to use his own internal strength.

Around noon, they entered a town.

When the carriage stopped, Jun Jiuling, who had been leaning against her thigh, opened his eyes. Shen Mubai couldn’t help but suspect that he did it intentionally.

After getting up, Jun Jiuling glanced at her indifferently and said, “You may go down.”

Shen Mubai, who had been tense the whole way, finally relaxed her body, but soon she realized that her legs were numb… she couldn’t walk.

Jun Jiuling looked displeased. “What are you dawdling for?”

Shen Mubai said, “Reporting to the master, my legs are numb.”

At that moment, the voice of Wu Er came from outside: “Master, I have arranged a few rooms.”

Jun Jiuling responded indifferently, then looked at Shen Mubai and made a surprising move.

He lifted Shen Mubai up and then jumped off the carriage, entering the inn in front of all his subordinates.

Wu Er and You Yi widened their eyes and exchanged glances, rubbing their eyes as if they couldn’t believe it.

“Hit me to see if it’s real,” said You Yi.

Wu Er punched You Yi, who winced and rubbed his face. “Master… he’s really doing it.”

He glanced at You Yi.

You Yi quickly dodged, saying, “If you hit me like that, I might die.”

Now, there were arrest warrants from the government, so they naturally disguised themselves a bit. Therefore, after Jun Jiuling entered the inn, apart from some curious glances, nothing suspicious was noticed.

Seeing him carrying a girl, some ambiguous expressions appeared on their faces.

Shen Mubai was completely taken aback by being held by Jun Jiuling.

It wasn’t until he kicked open one of the rooms and put her down that she came back to her senses.

She stuttered, her speech becoming incoherent, “Mas… Master.”

Jun Jiuling looked down at her condescendingly and asked, “Yes?”

Shen Mubai hesitated. “Did I do something wrong?”

Seeing her like this, Jun Jiuling sneered, “Am I really that terrifying?”

Although Shen Mubai wanted to nod, she looked at his dark expression and shook her head wisely.

Jun Jiuling stood there, looking at her for a while, then coldly closed the door.
