Chapter 388: Chapter 23 The Terrifying Butler Sun
After thoroughly understanding the task and the relationships between the characters, Elder Qi Tianming finally left the Wanxiang Sect and headed towards the manor close to the Inner City.
In no time, he entered the manor and, under the arrangements of Elder He, smoothly became a guard and blended into the crowd.
To become an elder of a Wanxiang Sect branch, his strength must have already reached the Life Sea Realm. With such cultivation, he assumed he would be sent as an undercover agent to an enemy power. Instead, he ended up at such a small residence.
“Truly a waste of talent... Oh well, I’ll just observe for a while then apply to return...”
Seeing that the guards and subordinates here scarcely surpassed Galaxy 3-dan, he had no choice but to hide his true strength and felt somewhat helpless.
Choosing to be a covert piece, he naturally doesn’t fear danger and fantasizes about an illustrious, remarkable deed that will live on through the ages, only to end up with such a simple task.
...
“The leaders of the Six Sects underestimate me!”
He couldn’t help but shake his head.
Surely, Master Lai must think his abilities insufficient to assign him such a task.
Merely to monitor some inconsequential people from out of town; any guard could be assigned. To use a covert agent that had been embedded for so many years in such a way, what is Lai Chengyi thinking?
The more he thought about it, the more depressed he felt.
Despite his anger, he also knew that once a task was accepted, it could not be abandoned halfway. He immediately followed behind the numerous guards, planning to take a closer look at his surroundings to see if he could find something different when he heard someone shouting.
“Everyone hurry up, Butler Sun wants to see you all and have a few words...”
“Butler?”
Elder Qi Tianming was startled and curiously asked a nearby guard: “Is it Elder He?”
All subordinates here were brought over by Elder He’s selection. If there indeed is a butler, could it be him?
“Of course not, he is brought by Young Master Zhang Xuan, it’s someone called... Sun Qiang!”
The guard hesitated for a moment and then thoroughly explained what he knew.
“Sun Qiang?”
Although Qi Tianming was puzzled, he continued following the others without asking further and quickly arrived at the courtyard.
On the steps directly ahead, a plump fat man stood quietly above, one hand behind his back, his forehead tilted at a 45-degree angle, his gaze filled with a trace of severity and solitude.
The crowd arrived, and he didn’t turn his head, like a statue.
With his strength and knowledge, he could tell the source of this power—it wasn’t from cultivation, but from the First Level Destiny!
“The power of the First Level Destiny... could this butler be a descendant of the fragments of the heavens?”
His body shook, fists clenched.
The power of the First Level Destiny, even a mere descendant with a sliver of its inheritance, is someone he couldn’t possibly rival.
As the other showed fear, Sun Qiang made his way down the steps, with each step his aura strengthened a notch. Three consecutive steps, and he turned into a towering giant wave, ready to engulf everyone at any time.
“Are you... trying to challenge my authority?”
Sun Qiang’s icy voice echoed slowly.
The eyes of the subordinate showed signs of evasion. For some reason, despite being stronger than the other, he didn’t dare to respond to the challenge.
Seeing his attitude, Sun Qiang nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand grandly, “I’m warning you, here, you are to like my words, listen to them, dislike them, still listen! If you dare to defy, I don’t mind teaching you some manners!”
BOOM!
An even greater oppressive force filled the air, and in the blink of an eye, Elder Qi Tianming felt that Sun Qiang, though not very strong, gave off an imposing presence, like a towering mountain range that was impossibly high to reach.
Especially that confidence and arrogance in his gaze; he seemed like an emperor who looked down upon all beings, accustomed to countless storms and tribulations.
BANG!
A water jar exploded not far away, showering clear water in every direction, startling everyone and making them shrink their necks in unison.
It was at this moment, all of Sun Qiang’s aura suddenly retracted and the oppressive feeling in the yard vanished in an instant. Everyone looked again to see the plump figure, still with one hand behind his back, still gazing skywards at 45 degrees, like an expert from a realm removed from this world.
“Could it be... that the so-called Galaxy 2-dan is all a guise?”
Pupils constricting, a thought surfaced in Elder Qi Tianming’s mind.
If he himself could pretend, surely the other party could too!
Yes, it must be so.
If not pretending, why would a mere Galaxy 2-dan have such confidence and presence? Especially those eyes, that tone, as if to say... all present are nothing but trash!
“This butler is no ordinary man! No wonder the leaders of the Six Sects sent me to be undercover...”
Elder Qi Tianming had a sudden epiphany.
If a mere butler is so formidable, one can’t imagine what Young Master Zhang’s figure would be like.
Suddenly, he felt that Master Lai did not look down on him; perhaps this task was not as simple as he imagined.
