Chapter 138: Chapter 136 Uncle Shoulder Strap (Third Update)

The plane smoothly passed through the floating clouds, flying over the vast sea. Looking down at the azure sea and the occasionally surging white waves, Yun Qi squinted happily and excitedly said to Yun Kuang, "Brother, this is my first time on a plane. It’s so much fun!"

She even swung her legs joyfully, as if stepping on the waves beneath her feet.

Yun Kuang nodded and pointed to a vague place in the distance, saying, "Look, that’s where we’re headed."

The night before departure, Yun Kuang had researched information about Langqi Island.

Langqi Island is the largest island in this ocean, and it’s an independent country. Due to geographical and religious reasons, this nation has always been under hereditary rule, but with intertwined powers making it extremely complex.

On the island, the Lord represents force and authority, while the Priest embodies the beliefs of the people.

The plane landed, and the people sent by the Lord to receive them had already arrived.

A group of people all dressed in black shirts, wearing sunglasses, with the unique gold and green peacock emblem of the Lord’s family on their chests, causing everyone around to steer clear, not daring to approach.

Yun Kuang immediately recognized them and walked over, holding Yun Qi’s hand.

The leading man’s black shirt was also adorned with an embroidered diagonal sash, a traditional local attire feature, highlighting his special status among the group.

The "Sash" glanced coldly at Yun Kuang and Yun Qi and said in fluent mainland language, "The renowned Yun Family of the Xuan Sect has actually fallen to such a state, sending a young blond boy and a little girl who still smells of milk. What can you do? Or do you simply not care about Yun Qiucheng’s life and casually send two people to fool the Lord!"

Yun Kuang unconsciously straightened his chest, clenched his fists, and squared his shoulders, trying to appear imposing. His voice unintentionally lowered a few pitches, "Looking down on us? Mainland Xuan Sect talents abound. You small islanders dare not to speculate at will!"

The "Sash" gave a cold laugh, pointed a finger at Yun Kuang’s chest. He seemed to exert no force, yet Yun Kuang, like a deflated balloon, let out a squeak, his shoulders caving in.

In front of such a mighty and robust man like "Sash," Yun Kuang instantly revealed his chick-like essence.

"Too weak, your Yun Family is too weak," said the "Sash."

Yun Kuang felt a bit ashamed, but before he could muster his courage, he heard a soft, milky voice come from below:

"Uncle Sash, do you have any other work after picking us up?"

Everyone was stunned and looked down following the voice.

The Little Dumpling, held by Yun Kuang, was wearing a girl’s denim pants, a white strawberry T-shirt on top, and a pink shirt over it, with white kids’ shoes on her feet.

The color combination was extremely fresh and bright, making her look like a delicious and sweet strawberry ice cream.

The "Sash" paused for two seconds before realizing who "Uncle Sash" referred to.

Instantly, his expression turned cold, "Don’t call me Uncle Sash. My name is Jiapeng, and I’m the deputy captain of the Royal Guard."

"Oh, Uncle Sash, do you have any other work after this?" Yun Qi continued to ask.

Jiapeng twitched his mouth. He could intimidate Yun Kuang, but he couldn’t show aggression towards a little girl, making him appear as a bully.

So he held back his anger and spoke in an extremely cold tone, "As the deputy captain of the Royal Guard, all my work is scheduled in advance, but the upcoming work has nothing to do with you, and it’s not something you should ask about. Also, my name is Jiapeng, not Uncle Sash."

Yun Qi blinked innocently, thinking it was not her fault that he wore differently from others, with an extra diagonal sash than the others.

She had seen on TV that beauty pageant winners wore like this, and a diagonal sash seemed to represent supreme honor; different rankings had different sashes.

"It doesn’t matter; what to call you isn’t important," Yun Qi comforted him.

Jiapeng felt he was close to losing his temper. Of course, it wasn’t important to her, because she wasn’t the one being called Uncle Sash.

Kids... really infuriating and troublesome.

"Uncle Sash," Yun Qi persisted in calling, "if you have time afterward, you might want to go home and check. Your girlfriend is preparing a big surprise for you."

Yun Qi touched her little nose, her gaze pure as if saying, Little Qi is trustworthy, you must believe me.

Jiapeng hadn’t had much contact with children before, and his only impression of them was that they were noisy and annoying.

Upon suddenly meeting Yun Qi, he found her annoying yet cute.

But he didn’t want to show it on his face and pretended to be cold, "You should worry about yourself. Yun Qiucheng has thoroughly angered the Lord, and I don’t think this... gentleman," he looked at Yun Kuang and paused deliberately, speaking with a sarcastic tone, "can change anything."

Yun Kuang, having some backbone, straightened his chest again and said calmly, "You’re right. I can’t change anything because Yun Qi is the representative of the Yun Family. I’m here to take care of her."

All the men in black across them were taken aback, then looked at Yun Qi in disbelief.

At first, they thought the one from the Yun Family was the young man before them; unexpectedly, it was the little girl.

Are you kidding?

They could already imagine the Lord’s expression when he first saw the little girl.

Jiapeng frowned, feeling a vague worry for the little girl.

"You? Are you joking? Did the Yun Family send you to your doom?"

Yun Qi squinted her eyes, "I wasn’t mistaken. Uncle Sash is not a bad person, but your nose is sharp and thin, with a weak innate foundation and an ordinary background. The good thing is you’re courageous and hardworking, ultimately making a name for yourself. But you have three bends in your nose, lonely and broken in house, which suggests that your emotional and marital life will be problematic. Although you’ll eventually find true love, it won’t be your current one, so it’s better to get out sooner."

Jiapeng’s eyebrows furrowed suddenly, this was...

Deliberately showing off because she doubted him.

But she actually managed to see through his ordinary background.

Jiapeng was born in a slum; his parents were small-time vendors there. From a young age, he vowed to change his fate.

He studied hard and worked diligently in school. After being forced to leave school, he left Langqi Island and ventured out on his own, which was the main reason he knew mainland languages.

After returning to Langqi Island, he joined the army, and because of his strong physique and excellent performance, he was exceptionally selected to become a Royal Guard. Later, due to his meritorious service in defending the Lord during an event, he was further promoted to the deputy captain of the Royal Guard.

A brilliant resume can be called a paradigm of defying fate.

But the little girl actually said his marriage would be troubled.

"No, our Priest said I would have great fortune, wealth, and a very complete life."

Yun Qi hugged the little bear in her arms, smiling with her lips forming two lovely dimples, "Uncle Sash, you are not someone without insight. You’ve also experienced the hardships of life. Do you think anyone truly has a perfect life? Even the Lord, why does he require very strict mystical Feng Shui for the palace? It shows he has things he’s afraid of too."

Jiapeng was taken aback, this little girl—

Not only did she speak well, but the key was that he actually thought she was right.

The Lord had become nearly obsessed about the safety of the new palace, giving the feeling that he was avoiding something.

"Time is running late, please." Jiapeng didn’t continue speaking, instead made a gesture inviting Yun Kuang and Yun Qi to get in the car.

Yun Qi wrinkled her little nose, smiling happily, "Got it right."
