Jun 'er was a part of Skyfire Avenue. Skyfire Avenue had been founded by the Clairvoyant, so the Clairvoyant's influence and importance to Skyfire Avenue was undeniable. You could say that the Clairvoyant was the spiritual leader of Skyfire Avenue.
It looked like Skyfire Avenue had five Paragons, and for a time it had no friends.
However, both the Major League and the Citadels knew that the Clairvoyant's fall would have an enormous impact on Skyfire Avenue. Skyfire Avenue would no longer be as fearsome as it once was.
But now that a Clairvoyant with such talent had awakened her Discipline, there was no doubt that within twenty years Jun 'er would be a force to be reckoned with.
If her Talent was compatible with the Clairvoyant, then it was almost certain that Skyfire Avenue would have another Paragon.
This would have an enormous impact on Skyfire Avenue, and perhaps even on the world of Adepts.
"No wonder the Terminator's expression was strange. No wonder you personally brought Jun 'er out." The Pharmacist's expression grew more serious. She hadn't expected this, either.
This was a good thing. If she had awakened her Discipline on Skyfire Avenue it would have been a good thing.
But they were in the Major League, thousands of miles away from Skyfire Avenue.
What's more, there were so many powerful Adepts and factions gathered here.
If word got out, it wouldn't be easy for them to return safely.
Lan Jue lifted her wrist and pressed a button on her communicator.
The Gourmet did the same.
"Mika, take Xiu Xiu, Kerr and Guoguo with Zeus -1. Get to Luo City as fast as you can." Lan Jue dialed Mika's number.
Originally, they had come to participate in the competition.
Lan Jue had originally planned for Xiu Xiu to come with the Gourmet, but after Zhou Qianlin had merged with Xiu Xiu, he'd told Zeus that he didn't need to come. This time, however, he'd sent his four Maids.
It could be seen how concerned he was about this.
The Gourmet dialed another number.
"Wine Master, there's a problem over here.
It's a good thing.
Find a way to notify the Clairvoyant that the Pharmacist's daughter has awakened a prophetic Discipline.
I'm afraid I can't protect them completely. "
Silence reigned on the other end. After a few seconds, the Wine Master's voice broke the silence.
"Alright, I'll get there as fast as I can.
Don't leave Luo carelessly. Even if someone wants to make things difficult for you, they won't do it openly.
You must wait for me to arrive.
There were no other actions.
Participate in the competition as per normal and protect our future.
I will inform the Clairvoyant. "
"Got it." The Gourmet hung up the phone.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense for no reason.
As for Jun'er, the instigator of all this, she sat there as if nothing had happened. She even had a faint smile on her face.
The Gourmet suddenly remembered something. He walked over to Jun 'er and knelt down in front of her. "Jun' er.
Can you feel your own safety? "
Generally speaking, prophets had a keen sense of danger, especially when it came to themselves.
Jun 'er had only recently awakened.
But prophetic Disciplines couldn't be understood with common sense. Especially for someone like her, who had awakened when her precelestial energy was at its strongest. She could see things more clearly.
Jun 'er smirked. "What safety?
Jun 'er is very happy with mom and dad.
Mom and dad will take me home. "
The Gourmet's face lit up with a small smile as she spoke.
"Be a good girl, Jun 'er. We'll accompany you home.
Let's play for a few more days.
When the tournament is over, we'll leave. "
"Thank you, Uncle Gourmet," Jun 'er said with a sweet smile.
The Pharmacist hugged her daughter, her eyes flashing.
But there was no fear. Instead, a murderous light flashed in her eyes.
The Gourmet went on. "The Terminator doesn't seem to have any intention of harming Jun 'er, at least on the surface. Only he and we know about this.
The Citadels don't know yet, but we'll do our best to keep it a secret until the tournament is over.
The Wine Master will be here as soon as he can. "
Lan Jue's voice was low. "You can't let go of your guard.
Besides, this affects the future of the Adept world.
The Terminator won't tell outsiders, but they'll discuss it amongst themselves. I'm sure it won't be long before word gets out. We have to be careful. "
"From now on," the Gourmet said, "I'll keep an eye on Jun 'er. If there's a problem, I'll be at her side.
Pharmacist, I'll ask the Seamstress and Beautician to stay with you. We can look after each other. "
"I don't want them. I want mom and dad." Jun 'er suddenly spoke up.
The Gourmet paused. He looked at Lan Jue with a strange expression. The Pharmacist's face flushed red.
Lan Jue spoke up. "Don't worry, Jun 'er. I'll always be here. I'll protect you.
How about this, I won't participate in the tournament. I'll stay with Jun 'er and protect her. "
"That won't do."
The Gourmet waved his hand dismissively. "Everyone knows what we're capable of. That's all they'll take into account.
You'll have an advantage in the shadows.
Don't be too eager to show yourself.
As long as I'm here, unless the Terminator or the Epochrion makes a move, protecting Jun 'er won't be a problem.
The Wine Master is right. As long as we don't leave the planet, no one on Luo will dare mobilize an army against us.
No battleships, no Paragons, there's nothing to worry about.
Even if the Pontiff or Satan wanted to make a move, they wouldn't be able to get here in time.
After all, it takes time for word to get out. The Wine Master is already on his way. "
Lan Jue nodded. "That would be best.
Are you taking Jun 'er to the tournament tomorrow? "
The Gourmet nodded. "We can't let anything show on the surface. I'll be watching Jun 'er.
The Terminator wouldn't do anything to a girl. She'll be the safest. "
Lan Jue looked at the Pharmacist, who nodded in agreement.
After a brief discussion, Lan Jue and the Pharmacist returned to their room with Jun 'er.
"Mom, dad, did Jun 'er cause you trouble?" Jun' er asked in a small voice.
Lan Jue smiled and pulled her daughter onto her lap. "How could that be?
Jun 'er is the most well-behaved, he didn't cause any trouble. But our little Jun' er might become especially strong in the future, even surpassing daddy and mommy. "
Jun 'er giggled. "Does that mean Jun' er will be able to protect mom and dad?"
Lan Jue nodded. "Yes!
Don't worry about anything, Jun 'er. Mom and dad will protect you. They won't let any harm come to you.
Anyone who wants to hurt you will have to step over my dead body first. "
His words were spoken casually, but in the depths of his eyes the Pharmacist could see the unshakable determination in them.
Her heart trembled. She looked at Lan Jue with a different expression. There was a gentleness in her eyes.
"Alright, let's stop here for now.
You don't need to worry too much, we have so many people here.
Even the Northern Alliance will have to think twice before dealing with us. "The Pharmacist looked at the situation calmly. This was something Lan Jue hadn't expected.
"Now, isn't it time to talk about you?" The Pharmacist asked.
"Me?" Lan Jue blinked. He suddenly remembered the Pharmacist's question about his Discipline.
"It's nothing. An accident caused my Discipline to mutate, and my Discipline to drop.
I've already started cultivating again. At the rate I'm going, I think I'll be back to full strength in a year or so. "Lan Jue's response was light and casual.
The Pharmacist's eyes narrowed. She reached out and grabbed his wrist.
Lan Jue didn't resist. He was in front of Jun 'er, and he trusted the Pharmacist.
The Pharmacist's fingers were strong. Even with a light pinch, he felt a numbing sensation spread through his body. He could sense a sharp aura emanating from her fingertips. Suddenly, his body became transparent, and there was nothing he could hide from her.
After a moment the Pharmacist let go. Her brows furrowed. "It doesn't feel like anything's wrong.
Your blood is stronger than most people.
It's even stronger than most ninth level seventh rank Adepts.
Your meridians are resilient, and your Discipline is solid.
All of these signs point to a very strong foundation.
Under such circumstances, how could your ability be reduced by so much?
Did you purposely disperse your Discipline and re-cultivate? "
"Re-cultivate?" It was Lan Jue's turn to be curious. "Are there really Adepts who choose to re-cultivate?"
The Pharmacist nodded. "It's rare, but not unheard of.
When an Adept feels that their Discipline is rising too quickly, and that it's not helping to stabilize their Discipline, it's possible to re-cultivate.
However, this secret cultivation technique is extremely secretive. Only our Primordial Era's Chinese lineage possesses it.
It's the best way to break through a bottleneck.
Generally speaking, an Adept only has the opportunity to re-cultivate once in their lifetime.
It's a chance to stabilize their Discipline, and then break through the bottleneck. "
"From what I've seen of you, there's no need for you to re-cultivate!
Your energy is very stable, and it is obvious that you have cultivated step by step. Your talent is also excellent, and you are a dual-attribute Esper. Moreover, you have vaguely comprehended the power of law, which is very rare among Espers.
There's a sixty to seventy percent chance you'll break through.
Of all the Adepts I've met, you're the most talented.
It's unthinkable that you'd choose to re-cultivate under these circumstances.
However, I also admire your courage. "
