354 Significance of Jun Hua’s name

BANG!

After the fight has been over, Soujin slammed the ground with his sword in rage. The mark on the ground made the rest of the people in the village terrified. How was it possible that such a deep mark appeared just from a single strike?

Yasha was holding the scrap tightly as his eyes burn with rage. He missed by a few seconds and that few seconds were enough to lose his beloved Miss. He couldn\'t forgive himself for not realizing it sooner.

Fan Lanying and Yamin were resting on the side as Ming Hui examined them. He found out that the fog in this city contained some medical substance targeted specifically at women. From what he knew, the only woman Ye Jiu ever met would be Jun Hua. His guess was right, but they were too late.

"Where did they take Jun Hua to?" Fan Lanying asked worriedly.

Ming Hui shook his head. Even he didn\'t know why they targeted Jun Hua. If they want her because of their surname, why don\'t they take Jun Zhenxian instead, who was far weaker compared with Jun Hua?

Jun Zhenxian also stood on the side. Although he looked calm compared with Soujin, they didn\'t dare to get close with him for they know how angry he was. There was some unnoticeable dangerous aura around him.

"Answer my question, where did they take the girl?" Soujin looked towards the crowd in front of him with a murderous gaze, making them absolutely terrified.

"We don\'t know."

"Lord Ye Jiu only tells us to battle while he will send his private soldiers to take her away."

From the corpses on the side, they knew that many of them didn\'t belong to their village. The people who face off Soujin and Jun Hua were surely the people from Ye Jiu\'s side. If not, they wouldn\'t last even one second.

Soujin was about to erupt again when an old lady stood up and walk to him slowly. From the way she walked and her expression, it was clear that she was not an ordinary old woman.

"Young man, you won\'t be able to get anything from them. Lord Ye Jiu never indulges any information to us."

Soujin shifted his gaze, "and you\'re?"

"My name is Jun Miao," the old lady answered, "I\'m the head of this village. Come over to my office if you want to hear more."

Soujin stayed in his place as the old lady turned around. After glancing at the crowd once more, he sheathed his sword and followed after the lady. If something were to happen with Jun Hua, he would chase after Ye Jiu and kill him in the most brutal way possible.

Behind him, Jun Zhenxian, Lou, and Yasha followed after while the rest returned to the inn to treat the women.

The building in this village was not that advance, but they were certainly not too bad. The old lady walked slowly, but her step was firm and didn\'t seem like the step of someone of old age at all. When they arrived, she gestured for them to sit down.

"Now young man, why don\'t you introduce yourself and your companion?"

"My name is Nanglong Soujin. This old man is Jun Zhenxian, this is Yasha, and this is Lou."

The old lady\'s ears perked up when she heard the surname of Jun Zhenxian. She stares at the old man face for a while before nodding her head.

"So they manage to survive after all."

"Can you please tell me what do you mean?" Jun Zhenxian interest piqued up.

Jun Miao nodded her head, "Long ago, there is a certain family branch of the Jun Family who made a mistake. They are sent away from this area towards Long Kingdom. No one would guess that their family would flourish like this."

Jun Zhenxian frowned, "Do you mean the Jun Family belong to this place?"

Jun Miao shook her head, "No, we belong to beyond the river. However, many of us now live in this remote place because of the loss of our power."

"What kind of loss?" Soujin cannot help but interrupted.

Jun Miao didn\'t immediately answer. Her long and aged finger traces the carving on the table before she started to tell a story.

"The powers in the old age are all things we now considered as supernatural things, but now almost they are all gone. The people would depend on their sword or word," Jun Miao smiled proudly before her expression turned downcast, "The only one who still has the supernatural power would be the Jun Tribe, but that\'s only until the last one appear."

Seeing her old age expressing the helpless expression, they knew that this old lady was not lying. Still, it was hard to believe that there was still something like that in this kind of age. After all, they didn\'t believe that something supernatural existed here.

"What kind of power do you have?" Soujin asked.

"The power to see the future," Jun Miao answered.

That answer made them startled as they remember the weird ability of Ye Jiu to guess their tactic very well. Could it be that he borrows the power from the Jun Tribe here? But how was it possible?

"Can you explain the detail about how you\'re able to see the future?"

Jun Miao shook her head, "Someone as low as I would not know the detail as I don\'t wield the power. Only several people can see the future and they must belong to the pure blood of the Jun Tribe and never married outside. If you want to know more, you have to find the head of Jun Tribe."

"You mean only the head of Jun Tribe has the power?" Soujin frowned. With how the people look at them, they would find it hard to travel inside. Not to mention the fog was incredibly dangerous.

"No, not all of them have the power. Only certain people born in their lineage can have the power," Jun Miao answered.

"How you know whether they have the power or not?"

"They are tested using some ways that I don\'t know," Jun Miao answered. She looked towards Soujin and asked, "What is the relation of the girl they take with you?"

"She is my wife," Soujin answered firmly.

Jun Miao saw his resolution and take out a paper, "Follow the lead, you will soon find the place without the fog near the river. From there, you only need to walk beside the river to find the ancient city. Your wife should be there."

"Thank you very much," Soujin hadn\'t expected that the old lady is still willing to help them out after they have killed a lot of the citizen.

Jun Miao shook her head, "Don\'t thank me. I only hope you can find her before it is too late."

"What?" Jun Zhenxian was startled.

"The lady they take, her name is Jun Hua, right?"

"How do you know?"

Jun Miao smiled wryly, "Every people who wields the power to see the future in Jun Tribe was named Jun Hua."
