I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 2016 City Lord’s Mansion

"Lazo, are you tired of living? Why did you leave me here alone on duty?" The guard's voice was rough, with a bit of dissatisfaction and anger in his words. Without saying anything, he raised his hand and slapped Liu Jun.

The slap came suddenly, and Liu Jun was a little confused. He couldn't help but feel confused and angry. Then he raised his head, his eyes flashing with confusion and puzzlement: "Wait a minute, you are a little confused, what is my name?"

"Lazo, are you crazy?" Seeing this, the guard became even more convinced that the other party was playing a trick on him, so he raised his hand again, ready to slap him again.

But this time, Liu Jun was prepared. He dodged the opponent's attack skillfully, and secretly thanked himself for his quick reaction. He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and thought about how to deal with this sudden change.

"Brother, we may have some misunderstandings." Liu Jun pretended to be calm and tried to resolve the conflict with words. However, the other party obviously did not buy it, and still glared at him, ready to attack again.

Just when the atmosphere was extremely tense, Liu Jun looked around to make sure there was no one else. He then took a step forward, covered the guard's mouth with his hand, and whispered, "Don't make a sound. I'm your uncle. Let's leave here first and find a safe place so I can have a good talk with you."

The guard was startled by Liu Jun's sudden action, but when he heard what Liu Jun said, he was instantly furious and was about to lose his temper. Suddenly, he felt a slight chill on his waist. Although he didn't see what it was, he knew by feeling that it was a sharp object like a dagger.

After hesitating for a moment, the guard's eyes flickered, and finally he nodded slightly, as if he had made some difficult compromise. He lowered his head and followed Liu Jun, staggering slightly towards a secluded corner deep in the city lord's mansion where few people went.

Liu Jun had a barely perceptible sneer on his face, and he skillfully pulled out a thick hemp rope from his waist, and neatly tied the guard's hands behind his back. Then, he pulled out a sock that exuded a strong odor from somewhere, and stuffed it into the guard's mouth without hesitation, leaving only the guard's terrified and unwilling eyes spinning in his eyes.

"You bastard, you dare to hit me? You're a rebel!" Liu Jun waved his fists and cursed in a low voice, his tone full of anger and unwillingness.

Each of his punches and kicks landed precisely on the guard, as if he wanted to pour out all the humiliation and resentment he had suffered before. The guard could only endure it helplessly, making a "woohoo" sound from his mouth, but unable to utter a complete word.

After fighting for a while, Liu Jun's anger seemed to have subsided a little. He stopped what he was doing, took a few deep breaths, and then picked up the guard whose face was bruised and almost unrecognizable, and asked viciously, "I ask you, did a group of strangers come to the City Lord's Mansion today?"

The guard was lifted off the ground with his feet, his face as pale as paper, his eyes full of fear. He was afraid that he would be beaten again if he hesitated, so he quickly replied: "Yes, yes, there are several fish-headed people, and they are also holding a few strangers."

His voice became unclear because of the sock in his mouth, but Liu Jun still managed to hear his answer.

The guard secretly regretted it in his heart. He also wanted to be tough and refuse to answer the question. But when he saw Liu Jun's fierce eyes and unquestionable posture, all his courage and determination collapsed instantly. He knew that if he uttered a word of no, he would probably be beaten to death here.

After hearing the guard's answer, Liu Jun's eyes flashed with thought, and he threw the guard to the ground.

The guard collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare.

"Do you know where those people went?" Liu Jun frowned and asked the guard again.

The guard trembled and swallowed, his eyes full of fear. "Those fish-headed people are currently in the main hall, being entertained by the city lord himself. As for those who were captured, they are being held in a remote wing room."

Liu Jun's eyes suddenly became sharp, staring at the guard and ordered, "Where is the wing room? Get up and take me there."

Although the guard was reluctant, under Liu Jun's murderous gaze, he knew that if he dared not to obey, he would die. So he had no choice but to stand up, trembling with legs, and led Liu Jun towards the wing room.

Along the way, they met many patrolmen. But the guards kept their heads down, not daring to look at anyone, fearing that they would be discovered with bruises on their faces. Fortunately, it was late at night, and the patrolmen were busy, so no one noticed their abnormality, and no one suspected them.

Finally, they arrived near the wing room. However, just as they were about to approach the wing room, they were stopped by another team of guards.

"What are you two doing?" A burly guard came up to Liu Jun and the others, looking at them warily with sharp eyes.

The guard was shocked when he saw this and quickly explained, "Captain, this is... the doctor invited by the city lord. Let him go in and take a look at the captured people."

The burly guard frowned when he heard this, obviously doubting their words. He looked at Liu Jun carefully, trying to find flaws in his expression and demeanor. However, Liu Jun remained calm and stood there calmly, as if he was really a doctor as the guard said.

The burly guard hesitated for a moment, and finally made way, but there was still a warning in his tone: "Okay, since you are a doctor, then go in. But remember, don't cause trouble for me, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

The guard heard this, as if he had been pardoned, and quickly nodded and agreed. Then, he led Liu Jun, carefully pushed open the door of the wing room, and walked in. As soon as Liu Jun walked into the wing room, the soft candlelight immediately illuminated everything in the room. He quickly glanced around and saw Fatty and his friends sitting around the table with some anxiety on their faces.

Their focus was on Chen Manni, who was lying motionless on the bed. She looked pale and seemed to be in a deep sleep.

Fatty and others also noticed Liu Jun's arrival almost at the same time. They immediately became excited, with hope flashing in their eyes.

However, at this critical moment, Liu Jun blinked and introduced himself first: "Dear guests, I am the doctor invited by the city lord."

When Fatty and the others heard this, they immediately understood what he meant and realized that Liu Jun was concealing his identity to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

So, he quickly pretended not to know Liu Jun, stood up and said, "Then go check on the lady on the bed. She has been unconscious for a while."

Liu Jun nodded pretentiously, walked slowly to the bedside, first carefully looked at Chen Manni, then gently stretched out his hand and felt her pulse. After a moment, he withdrew his hand, with a relieved smile on his face: "This lady is fine, she was just frightened, and her body is a little weak. She will recover after a while."

"That's good, that's good." When the fat man and the others heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief, with relieved expressions on their faces. They looked at each other, with a gleam of relief in their eyes.

However, at this moment, a noisy sound broke the silence in the room. Then, countless guards appeared from all directions. They were wearing armor and holding spears. They walked in neat and powerful steps and surrounded the room. The atmosphere instantly became tense and depressing, and the expressions on the faces of Fatty and the others froze instantly.

Liu Jun frowned slightly, he quickly looked around, secretly thinking about how to deal with the situation.

"Everyone inside, come out!" A rough voice like thunder rang out, shaking the air around it as if it was trembling.

Liu Jun was silent for two seconds in the room, then he drew out the Dark Sword, tapped the ground with the tip of the sword, making a crisp sound, and walked out of the room calmly.

"Sure enough, someone broke in." The rough voice sounded again, with a hint of amusement and curiosity.

Liu Jun looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly man nearly three meters tall standing in front of the group of guards. He was wearing heavy armor and looked like a walking mountain, giving people an unshakable sense of oppression.

Liu Jun's eyes passed over the burly man and noticed the burly guard standing next to him. He had just seen that guard, but now standing next to the burly man, he looked as small as a child, completely losing his former momentum.

"Let me introduce myself," the sturdy man said in a voice as loud as a bell. "I am the lord of this Seaman City, Tailong. Who are you? Why are you here?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Liu Jun's eyes. He never expected that this giant like a big iron tower was actually the lord of Hairen City. Tailong's body shape and temperament were very different from the lord he imagined. This guy said that he was the gate of the city, which was more like the image of the lord of the city.

"I am Liu Jun, the Holy Son of the Skyfire Divine Realm!" Liu Jun's voice echoed in the air, and every word contained unquestionable domineering and majesty.

At this moment, he represented not himself, but the majesty of the Palace of the God King in the Skyfire Divine Realm.

Then, Liu Jun slowly took out a sign from his arms. This sign was unusual, as if there was a white flame burning on it, but strangely, it had no temperature at all, only a faint, mysterious light. The flame seemed to have life, jumping and dancing on the sign, but always maintaining a delicate balance, neither too hot nor too dim.

Faintly, you can see the two big characters "天火" in the flames, the handwriting is vigorous and powerful, as if it contains endless power and majesty. These two characters are not just words, but more like some kind of mysterious mark, imprinted deep in the sign, making people feel the heaviness and depth behind them at a glance.

This plaque was Liu Jun's proof of identity, personally given to him by his master's wife, the chief steward of the Skyfire Divine Realm. This was not just a simple plaque, but also a symbol of his identity and status, and a certificate that allowed him to mobilize any army in the Skyfire Divine Realm.

As soon as this sign came out, coupled with Liu Jun's words, the entire space seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force, and the noise surged again like a tide. The guards' faces instantly became panicked, and their eyes flashed with anxiety and fear. They looked at each other, trying to find a trace of stability in each other's eyes, but they only saw the same panic reflection.

If this person is really the Holy Son of the Skyfire Divine Realm, then if His Highness the Holy Son were to make any mistake here, the consequences would be disastrous. Once this thought emerged in their minds, it spread rapidly like wildfire, making everyone's heart rise to their throats.

Although they belong to the powerful sea beast clan, in the vast divine realm, even if the sea beast clan’s strength is fully mobilized, compared with the powerful Sky Fire Divine Realm, it is just a drop in the ocean and is not even in the same league.

If something really went wrong, these small fry wouldn't even be qualified to be victims. They would most likely be ruthlessly thrown out and become scapegoats, carrying an unbearable burden.
