Chapter 3560 — Meng Jueming and Meng Zhou
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 3
"Heh heh... If you're willing, then as you wish. I haven't fought anyone in the mortal realm for a long time, because no one has dared to fight me." Wei Zhao smiled without a care. He did not want to stir up trouble, but neither was he afraid of it; if this man wanted to spar, then let them spar. If he did not swat away these flies, who knew how many more would come pestering him later!
Besides, to beat someone like him, Wei Zhao did not even need to reveal his true strength—suppressing himself only to the peak of the late Heaven-Tier, the Great Perfection, would be enough to crush him to death.
"Meng Zhou, are you causing trouble again?" At that moment, a low voice suddenly sounded from behind the crowd!
Wei Zhao turned to look. The newcomer was a man who appeared to be in his thirties, with an aura of immense power, a notch stronger even than the Miserable Senior Brother beside him, that fine hand of the early Foundation Establishment stage—by the look of it, at the very least a peak expert of the early Foundation Establishment stage.
"This man is called Meng Jueming. Like me, he's a steward of our Azure Cloud Pavilion stationed at the Welcome Pavilion, and his strength and ranking are both above mine—whatever you do, never offend him." The Miserable Senior Brother hurriedly introduced him to Wei Zhao and Xiao Che in a low voice.
Another figure who must not be offended! Wei Zhao did not know whether to laugh or cry. It had been only a brief moment since they arrived at the Welcome Pavilion, and he had already heard that sentence from the Miserable Senior Brother's lips no fewer than three times. So it seemed that in the whole Welcome Pavilion, inside the Azure Cloud Pavilion or out, there was not a single person one could afford to offend—they were all great divinities beyond one's reach.
Though he too was a steward of the Azure Cloud Pavilion stationed at the Welcome Pavilion, this Senior Brother Meng Jueming made a far more imposing entrance than the Miserable Senior Brother. Wherever he passed, the Azure Cloud Pavilion disciples all rushed to greet him with respect; by comparison, at the Miserable Senior Brother's end, apart from Wei Zhao and Xiao Che, who were still reasonably courteous to him, not a single other person gave him any respect at all.
Seeing Meng Jueming appear, the previously high-and-mighty Meng Zhou immediately came forward bowing and scraping, fawning: "How could I? I was just briefing these two junior brothers who came up from the mortal realm, lest they disgrace our Azure Cloud Pavilion later on, isn't that right?"
"Two junior brothers who came up from the mortal realm?" Meng Jueming gave Wei Zhao and Xiao Che a meaningful glance and said coolly: "Even so, it's not for a newcomer like you to meddle. Miserable Junior Brother, since it was you who went to the trouble of fetching these two mortal-realm junior brothers from so far away, from now on you'll be responsible for instructing them as well, so they don't bring in those unsavory bad habits of the mortal cultivation world and ruin the good name of our Azure Cloud Pavilion."
"Miserable Senior Brother" was merely a nickname—Miserable was not really his name—yet Meng Jueming, as the chief steward senior brother of the Azure Cloud Pavilion here, called him by that nickname, which was somewhat disrespectful however one looked at it.
"Yes, Senior Brother Meng." It was the Miserable Senior Brother who saw nothing amiss; he gave a simple, honest smile and nodded.
Wei Zhao also smiled faintly, but Xiao Che clearly did not possess such depth of scheming; even his breathing had grown a little hurried.
