Chapter 112: Chapter 111: This is her godfather?!

With two horns on his head, Yuchi looked displeased as he watched Xun Xian holding Wei Qingzhu’s hand.

The two girls, with a significant age gap between them, walked ahead while Yuchi was tasked with settling the bills behind them.

Although the things were just some cheap snacks, the whole process felt very genuine.

Walking, watching, playing.

Yuchi glanced at some glamorous female disciples from sects within the crowd.

He wondered if these female disciples needed him to rescue them?

They seemed to have a strong air of oppression about them.

Their smiles couldn’t achieve complete brightness.

Should he, Yuchi, be like a savior and dig them out of their pitiable sects?

They’d probably be grateful and offer themselves to him, right?

"...As for the male disciples, forget it."

"Not worthy."

As the myriad flowers nearly dazzled his eyes, and as he gained insights, time passed.

Crossing streets back and forth, Yuchi, under the guidance of Xun Xian, reached a large mansion with Wei Qingzhu.

Above the mansion hung a plaque inscribed with "Jiangzhou City Defense Department Headquarters".

Impressive.

The Defense Department has such a grand mansion, completely separate from the governmental office?

The Defense Department is one thing, and the Jiangzhou City government office is another, like two wells not interfering with each other.

Is the relationship between the Imperial Decree Department and the Defense Department also bad?

Inside the Defense Department, many government officials and constables could be seen leaving the mansion in groups of three or five.

There are twenty Defense Departments in Jiangzhou City, and this is the centermost one.

"Walking all the way here, Jiangzhou City is indeed grand."

"It gives me the feeling of living inside a painting of the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival."

Originally, Yuchi would never be able to enter the Defense Department without Xun Xian’s introduction, which made everything much simpler.

He entered through the back door opened by Xun Xian’s help.

The Defense Department guards looked at Yuchi and Wei Qingzhu with some surprise but did not show any disrespect.

No looking down on them like a dog’s eye viewing people as inferior.

With Xun Xian’s presence, there were no problems.

Xun Xian is a patrol officer!

"She is very strong, highly respected."

In the Defense Department, constables are the weakest in strength, only requiring the Mortal Realm.

The next is the Head Constable, requiring the Qi Cultivation Realm, from Qi Cultivation Level 1 to Level 13.

Patrol officers are in the Foundation Establishment Realm, practically among the most powerful in Jiangzhou City.

Naturally, above them is the Golden Patrol; there is only one Golden Patrol in the Jiangzhou City Defense Department, and they have reached the Core Formation Stage.

"Not bad."

Upon entering, Yuchi could see that the ninth level of Foundation Establishment is indeed challenging; Xun Xian has been stuck at the ninth level for a long time without a breakthrough.

She is not as fortunate as Miss Huo Shanlan.

Moreover, the highest combat strength in Jiangzhou City generally reaches the Core Formation Stage.

"There might be stronger Golden Core cultivators, but the likelihood is low."

"Xun Xian has never mentioned it."

Relatively speaking.

Apart from remote cities like Jiangzhou, there are mighty cities in the Third Province with Iron Face and Brocade Clad.

Iron Face naturally refers to those in the Core Formation Stage, impartial and upright.

As for Brocade Clad, they are even higher-level experts.

"I don’t need to think much about Iron Face and Brocade Clad."

"Right now, at the Golden Core Stage, I’m practically at a Golden Patrol’s cultivation level."

"In terms of actual combat effectiveness, I am absolutely no match for any same-level Golden Patrol."

"They are far more skilled in killing than I am."

Yuchi’s assessment of his own cultivation level is very conservative.

Even though he achieved the Core Formation Stage through Shanlan’s loving support, he doesn’t consider himself capable of fighting above his level.

Logically, he prefers to take a step back when considering his own cultivation level.

As the spiritual Qi within him was about to become abundant, about to break through to the second level of Core Formation Stage, he considered himself a beginner at the first level of Core Formation Stage.

Thus, with sufficient strength everything is possible; no matter how astonishing a cultivation technique is, it ultimately just helps in advancing a stage for combat purposes.

"Other transmigrators are either the strongest at the same level or capable of killing above their level."

"I’m the weakest at the same level!"

"Truly!"

Walking through the mansion, officials dressed in formal wear were everywhere.

Fortunately, the girl Wei Qingzhu was dressed properly now, otherwise, it would’ve been odd.

Walking, circling around, under curious gazes, the three of them finally arrived at a secluded courtyard.

No guards were present outside the courtyard.

Because Xun Xian’s godfather is a Golden Patrol!

If there were issues her godfather couldn’t handle, no guards would suffice.

Upon reaching the courtyard, Xun Xian went to knock on the door.

"Don’t run around."

"Alright."

The door opened, and she disappeared inside for a while.

Yuchi smiled and looked at Wei Qingzhu, "Are you alright?"

With a smile on her face, she replied solemnly, "No problem."

When Xun Xian came out, she nodded at Yuchi, "Godfather is inside, you can go in now."

"Okay."

Yuchi reminded:

"Qingzhu, you stay outside with Miss Xun."

"Once this is temporarily resolved, let’s continue to roam around Jiangzhou City."

"See if there’s anything you’d like to play with."

Obediently agreeing, Wei Qingzhu came to Xun Xian’s side, and Xun Xian grabbed her hand.

"Yuchi, go with peace of mind, I will protect her. Qingzhu, don’t cry, you’ll meet someone better!" Xun Xian said with a serious expression.

"Thank you." Yuchi also smiled.

Facing the brown wooden door frame, he took a light breath, knocked on the door, and pushed it open to enter.

Xun Xian watched Yuchi’s calm demeanor and could only marvel at the guy’s thick-headedness.

Please.

He’s up against the Golden Patrol, a Core Formation Stage cultivator!

...

Entering the side room, the first thing is a clean floor covered with white drapes, with a layer of white drapes not far from the empty space.

Seems like it’s made of gauze.

"Why does it feel like an imperial harem?"

With simple furnishings, Yuchi came to the back of the drapes, and through them, he could see a silhouette on the wooden floor in front of him.

The silhouette seemed to be sitting cross-legged on the floor.

The floor also had an incense burner visible.

Hmm, took a slight breath, not worried about PM2.5 exceeding the limit.

Indeed, this is the room of someone significant!

And with the self-closing of the gauze curtain, Yuchi finally saw the other party.

This is a...

A big white fatty?

Yuchi’s forehead twitched a little.

Those who know would recognize a middle-aged man sitting on the ground, but to others it might look like a stack of white tires pressed on the floor.

Round and plump, chubby.

Coach, is that you? Coach, I want to play basketball.

Can’t say it’s a likeness, it’s exactly the same, the whole middle-aged man takes on a meat dumpling form.

Triangular.

Small head, broad shoulders, large belly, sitting on the floor, with two short legs to top it off.

Is this Xun Xian’s godfather?

Adorable, adorable.

Yuchi could hardly believe it.

His impression of the godfather was someone impartial, at least of a gentlemanly appearance.

Well then.

The first feeling was an intense chubby feeling, this guy, if placed on water, might float directly, right?

Thoughts are thoughts, jokes are jokes, Yuchi cupped his hands and said seriously, "Junior Yuchi greets Senior!"

"No need to be formal, since you’re a friend of Xun Xian, consider me a friend too."

The chubby man spoke, his small eyes squinting with a smile, looking just like a bean sprout.

Beware of squinty-eyed people.

Yuchi wouldn’t let his guard down.

And putting this big boss on the street, who could tell that this guy is a Core Formation Stage cultivator!?

Yuchi followed the man’s instructions and sat opposite him.

After more than ten breaths.

A low table the height of a palm stood between them, with a tea set on it.

Brewing tea, pouring water, steeping tea, smelling the aroma, rinsing the mouth, drinking the tea soup.

Have to say.

It’s quite elegant.

Yuchi held the sour apricot-sized teacup and took a sip, the taste was indeed not bad.

"You’ve come a long way, it must have been tiring." The middle-aged man looked at Yuchi with a hearty smile, "I haven’t introduced myself."

"I am Xun Yu, Xun Xian’s godfather."

Xun Yu?

Senior, what’s your relation to Xun Yu?

Nodding seriously, Yuchi praised, "Miss Xun is indeed a special lady. There are primarily two matters for my visit this time as a junior."

"Go ahead."

Smiling, Xun Yu clasped the small teapot with a bear paw, pouring tea for Yuchi.

Grateful, Yuchi simply said:

"Firstly, I’ve heard of some matters about Miss Xun, naturally curious about the senior."

"Secondly, as a junior, I want to pay respects to the senior so that in the future, the business in Jiangzhou City won’t be isolated and without support."

Yuchi spoke frankly.

He wagered that Xun Xian’s personality was learned from Xun Yu.

He wagered that Xun Yu wasn’t someone who’d beat around the bush.

"..."

It turned out, Yuchi made the right bet.

Xun Yu laughed heartily, "Yuchi, although we’ve never met, you directly stating your intentions pleases me."

"I don’t like it when people are calculating with each other, just say what you need to say."

"What I can help with, I surely will, and what I can’t, I’ll make it clear."

"Back-and-forth verbal sparring is even more painful."

Yuchi bowed.

Touched, he further said, "Same here."
