Yang Shu Mei Ying

Chapter 16 Part 2

Fortunately, Jun Shuying was sinister, but he was not unreasonably difficult. He only gave everyone some orders and gently nodded before he let them all off. Pity those branch leaders who felt as if they had been through a war.

Finally, it was Chiyang Branch Leader's turn. Jun Shuying didn't pay him any attention. After Chiyang Branch Leader finished, he respectfully bowed. As time passed, big drops of sweat flowed down his face, chin, and dropped onto his shirt. But he didn't dare to wipe it up.

Fifteen minutes passed. Jun Shuying did not make a sound. Chiyang Branch Leader secretly looked up. He saw their Sect Leader lying on the couch propped on a hand, but could not see his expression behind his sleeve. The other branch leaders sat still in the main hall. Everyone was at risk, so naturally no one would speak up for him.

Chiyang Branch Leader swallowed his mouthful of saliva. He carefully asked, "What orders does Sect Leader have for Chiyang Branch?"

Jun Shuying still did not reply. The main hall was filled with a terrible and suppressed silence.

Chiyang Branch Leader couldn't take it anymore. He got up from the chair and knelt on the ground. He heavily kowtowed. His voice held a tremor. "Sect Master, although Chiyang Branch didn't earn any merits, it made no faults. Under the eyes of the sun and moon, we are loyal to Sect Master. If there is anything that Sect Leader is dissatisfied with, this subordinate will take the penalty. Please have mercy and spare my life, Sect Master!"

He heavily kowtowed again. He used a lot of strength. A "bang" sounded and his forehead turned bloody.

Jun Shuying finally said something. He looked up, rather dazed. "What are you doing? You didn't do anything wrong. What mercy and sparing your life?"

Chiyang Branch Leader did not reach. He continued kneeling with his bloody forehead. Jun Shuying lazily waved his hand. "Are you finished? Then leave."

The scared branch leaders hurriedly stood up and respectfully took their leave. Chiyang Branch Leader was as happy as if he had gotten his life back after this. How would he care about Jun Shuying's abnormal actions? He heavily kowtowed and stood up to quickly leave.

After all the branch leaders left the main hall, Jun Shuying stood up from the couch and frowned as he rubbed his forehead. Gao Fang went over and asked in concern, "Sect Master, are you feeling unwell?"

Jun Shuying shook his head and walked into the inner room. Gao Fang looked at his back in worry.

Gao Fang had always felt that Jun Shuying wasn't quite right these few days. Maybe it was because the rebellion was pacified and the enemies were cleared out, so he wasn't as meticulously careful. Jun Shuying seemed to have relaxed. Those eyes that flashed with a calculating light were now lazy and lethargic, as if he could fall asleep at anytime.

Those branch leaders were silent and scared and didn't even dare to lift their heads, so they naturally did not see Jun Shuying's expression. But Gao Fang was sitting next to Jun Shuying and clearly saw everything. Jun Shuying's silence scared those branch leaders to death, but he had merely fallen asleep.

Gao Fang went over to the window to take a look at the sky. It was only after You Shi [5 – 7 p.m.]. It was not normal for a martial artist to sleep so early. But since Jun Shuying did not allow him to take his pulse, he naturally did not dare to touch his veins. Otherwise, with Jun Shuying's temper, it was possible for him to kill Gao Fang.

The fragrance in the air floated. The night breeze was genial. Gao Fang lightly sighed. "Let's hope that it's just the spring weather."
