The Nine Cauldrons

Chapter 35: The True Identity



Chapter 35 The True Identity

Teng Qingshan stared at the lady, who was dressed in the purple furcoat, as he felt slightly flustered.

Whether it was appearance, eyes or aura, they were all so similar to his beloved Cat in his previous life. If the Li Jun that he saved looked the same as the teenage Cat, then this lady looked almost identical to the adult Cat!

The aura was the most important!

Cat was the same as Teng Qingshan. She had experienced the hell-like training of a hitman and she fought in life or death situations. The weak young girl Li Jun did not have the same aura as Cat, but… the lady in front of him had an aura like Cat’s.

This lady also had a cold aura.

“You are Little Jun?” Teng Qingshan was slightly dubious and shocked as he asked hesitantly. When the lady heard Teng Qingshan’s words, astonishment and happiness immediately showed on her face as she exclaimed, “Big Brother Teng, it really is you!” The Lady in purple was Li Jun who Teng Qingshan had saved in the past! When she saw the Reincarnation Spear in Teng Qingshan’ hands, she already suspected that the person in front of her was Teng Qingshan.

However, because Teng Qingshan was in the Great Prairie, he didn't think that anyone would recognise him. Plus, the Great Prairie wasn't under the control of the forces of the nine prefectures, thus, no one was hunting him here. Also, Teng Qingshan’s ability had already improved a lot. Therefore, even if Golden Dan Innate Experts wanted to fight him, Teng Qingshan wasn't scared!

During this half a year, he trained and cultivated arduously in the prairie, using the heaven and earth as his bed and blanket, so he naturally appeared slightly unkempt.

His clothes were raggedy and he grew a beard. As it was impossible for the make up on his face stay for a long time, as time passed, the make up on his face was almost all gone.

Actually, a family member would definitely recognize Teng Qingshan, but… his acquaintances wouldn't be able to recognize Teng Qingshan since Teng Qingshan’s physique had changed. His skin color had darkened after half a year of unkempt lifestyle. He also looked dirty with a full beard. Who could recognize him easily?

However——

Because Teng Qingshan was always on Li Jun’s mind, she remembered Teng Qingshan’s appearance very clearly.

Of the big bearded appearance that Teng Qingshan had, she could recognize some of the features that belonged to the handsome and young Teng Qingshan! Plus, there was also the Reincarnation Spear.

Therefore, she removed her veil!

If it was others that saw her appearance, they would only think that it is some unknown beautiful lady. But if it was Teng Qingshan that saw her appearance, he would recognize her.

“You recognized me?” Teng Qingshan looked at himself in surprise as he touched the beard on his face. Someone could tell who he was even when he himself looked so unkempt. Suddenly, he saw the Reincarnation Spear in his hands and smiled “Little Jun, so it was the Reincarnation Spear that revealed my identity.”

Teng Qingshan unfastened the bundle that he was carrying with a smile on his face and opened the box. He disassembled the Reincarnation Spear and put it into the box.

“Big Brother Teng, is the Splitting Mountain Axe inside?” Li Jun glanced at the Axe in the box in surprise.

“Yes.” Teng Qingshan fastened the bundle and put it on his back.

Joy could be seen in Li Jun’s eyes as she said “Big Brother Teng, you don't need to hide the Reincarnation Spear… No one will pursue and kill you in this Great Prairie. Even if someone knows that you are Teng Qingshan, it will be alright.”

“It's still troublesome if someone knows.” Teng Qingshan replied with a smile.

Regarding the fact that Little Jun knew his identity, Teng Qingshan didn’t care at all. When he first met Little Jun, Teng Qingshan was rather concerned with this Little Jun… Maybe it was because Little Jun looked the same as his wife in his previous life. Maybe that's why Teng Qingshan was concerned.

However, no matter what, Teng Qingshan has to admit… that he only thought of Little Jun as a friend!

“In half a year, Little Jun had become an inner strength expert. Plus, she was thirteen last year and that was just the time when her body was growing. With abundant inner strength and energy, she grew very fast and she is now half a head taller than last year.” Teng Qingshan sighed in awe.

At this moment——

“Roar~~” A roar sounded beside.

Teng Qingshan turned and saw the Red Eyed Snow Lion, the size of a small mountain, glaring at him.

“Tsk. Tsk. Why? Now that you see that I have put my Reincarnation Spear back, you want to attack?” Teng Qingshan stared at the Red Eyed Snow Lion with a smile, “If it wasn't because of Li Jun, I would have killed you today!” Teng Qingshan clenched his fist and a flow of light flashed.

“Roar~~roar~~” Li Jun roared a few times at the Red Eyed Snow Lion and the Snow Lion then kept quiet.

“Little Jun, this Red Eyed Snow Lion is really interesting. When it was pursued by me, it purposely pretended to be about to fight a battle of life or death with me, but it suddenly ran!” Teng Qingshan looked at the Red Eyed Snow Lion with a smile, “I only realized now that it was trying to stall for time until you came with helpers.”

Li Jun glanced at the Red Eyes Snow Lion and said, “Red Eyes is too wild. He's not very obedient unlike Blacky and White.”

“Blacky and White?” Teng Qingshan laughed, “You are really good at giving names.”

When Li Jun heard this, she immediately blushed and responded, “Big Brother Teng, don't make fun of me.”

Seeing Li Jun’s reddened face, Teng Qingshan seemed to see Little Cat acting cutely in the past and he immediately felt an incipient tenderness in his heart.

“Big Brother Teng?” Li Jun saw that Teng Qingshan’s glances at her did not look okay.

“Oh.” Teng Qingshan sighed. It was alright when he was with Li Jun last year because she just looked like teenage Cat. However… Li Jun looked identical to the adult Cat now, causing the feelings hidden in the bottom of Teng Qingshan’s heart to surface.

“Little Jun, how did you tame these three demonic beasts?” Teng Qingshan hastily changed the topic.

When facing Little Jun, Teng Qingshan could only warn himself in his mind that she is Little Jun, not Little Cat.

Li Jun wrinkled her nose and smiled, “Of course, it wasn't me that tamed these demonic beasts! With my ability, I would be torn into pieces if I ever tried to tame these demonic beasts. Actually, you can say… how should I say it... ”

“Start from the beginning!” Teng Qingshan did care about the orphan Li Jun.

Li Jun nodded and said obediently, “When Big Brother Teng went to the Desolate Land and I was in the city, I met my teacher! My teacher told me that I was especially talented in cultivation and she gave me a cup of ‘Snowy Lotus Water.’ After drinking it, all of my meridians were opened and I possessed abundant inner strength.”

“Snowy Lotus Water?” Teng Qingshan had never heard of such precious item. He originally thought that it was the Chalcedony of Jade Essence.

Li Jun continued saying, “In the end, my teacher led me and caught all the evil-doers that killed my family. Those evil-doers… ” Li Hun gnashed her teeth and said with fierceness in her eyes, “I killed all of them with my own hands!”

Teng Qingshan casted a glance at Li Jun in shock.

Killing people?

It might be easy to say it, but if someone has never killed anyone before, then the first time doing it will be difficult. Li Jun, a weak girl, had definitely never killed anyone before, but she had to kill a big group of evildoers for the first time. Such experience might cause some people’s mentality to change drastically!

“Little Jun, weren’t you afraid?” Teng Qingshan asked.

“A little. I was very scared during that time and I couldn't even sleep well.” Li Jun then shook her head, “However, I have thought it through. They are all people that should die, therefore, they should be killed!”

Teng Qingshan sighed secretly. Her whole family was killed when she was still very young and she killed all the killers with her own hands when she grew up. The influence and blow of such experience to a person’s mentality is definitely similar to the hell-like training of hitmen.

No wonder the Li Jun today also had an icy cold aura.

This explanation of this aura is slightly unclear, but it was actually related to the experience, knowledge, and temperament!

Teng Qingshan and Li Jun sat on the grassland together, while the three Golden Dan Innate Demonic Beasts stayed by the side. The Red Eyed Snow Lion occasionally glared at Teng Qingshan as it rested.

“After teacher went back, I began practicing my whip skills arduously!”

Teng Qingshan also noticed that a long green whip was wrapped around her waist.

Suddenly, Teng Qingshan realized…

It was very rude for a guy to look at a woman’s waist and he immediately lifted his head.

Li Jun’s face was still slightly red.. “However, Big Brother Teng, after what happened to you, the news spread throughout the world and I was very worried.” Li Jun said as she looked at Teng Qingshan. When Teng Qingshan heard this, a smile appeared on his face involuntarily. At least this girl didn’t forget him completely.

Li Jun said helplessly, “I wanted to help Big Brother Teng, but I had no idea where you were. At that time, I met my Martial Uncle and Martial Uncle said… that your skills of disguise were extremely adept and no one would be able to find you. I believed it at that time. Because Martial Uncle was there, I learned the Language of Beasts from my Marital Uncle whenever I was free.

“Language of Beasts?”

Teng Qingshan looked at Li Jun dubiously, “Your Martial Uncle is the King of Beasts, Wu Hou?”

“Yes, he is my Martial Uncle.” Li Jun nodded.

A huge wave immediately surged in Teng Qingshan’s heart. It was rumored that the King of Beasts Wu Hou has no teacher, but… this Wu Hou actually has a Junior Martial Sister. How is it possible that he doesn’t have a teacher?

“Little Jun, the world said that Wu Hou doesn’t have a teacher. You guys… ” Teng Qingshan said astonishingly.

Li Jun smiled and said softly, “Of course Martial Uncle has a teacher! Which is my Martial Ancestor. However, this is a big secret and it is absolutely confidential. Big Brother Teng… you must not tell anyone. If you let anyone know, I will be in trouble.”

Teng Qingshan nodded.

“I learned the Language of Beasts with Martial Uncle. Learning the Language of Beasts required one to have talent in this field and many people wouldn’t be able to understand the Language of Beasts for their entire life. However… I learned it very quickly. In one short month, I learned the Language of the Eagles! My Martial Uncle praised me with joy and astonishment, saying that I am the most talented person who learned the Language of Beasts he has ever seen.” Li Jun said with a smile.

“Martial Uncle only had one disciple! Because the Language of Beasts is very hard to learn, Martial Uncle only has one disciple even though he is over one hundred years old and that disciple is my Senior Martial Brother Wan.”

“However, I have learned for two months and I am already more adept than him in the Language of Beasts. He has already learned for over ten years.” Li Jun said confidently.

“After that, I obeyed the Martial Uncle and came to this Northern Region of the Great Prairie from the land of the nine prefectures. Firstly, my job was to care for these three Golden Dan Innate Demonic Beasts. Secondly, I must think of a way to tame a group of demonic beasts and get them to understand our language!” Li Jun said, “It’s just like the Snow Hawk Hall and the Shooting Sun God Mountain. Since it was impossible for all the experts in the sect to understand the Language of Beast, therefore, we can only let the experts of the sect control them easily by taming the demonic beast and letting them understand our language.”

“However, teaching them our language is very difficult and probably even Martial Uncle wouldn’t be able to do that… However, Martial Uncle did say that I am the most talented one, even more talented than him.” Li Jun smiled, “Therefore, I have been leisurely staying in this Great Prairie.”

Teng Qingshan was extremely shocked.

Getting the demonic beasts to understand the languages of humans? This is a hundred times harder than learning the language of beasts.

“Someone is here!” With Teng Qingshan’s six keen senses, he turned and looked westward.

On the vast Great Prairie, a blurred red figure was rapidly darting forward from afar.

“Blood Dragon Horse Vermillion Wind Beast?” Teng Qingshan frowned.

“Neigh~~~” The Vermillion Wind Beast raised its front hooves highly and stopped. Teng Qingshan looked at the short-haired and slightly plump man on the Vermillion Wind Beast. The man wore purple cloak and a gold-colored mask. He stared at Teng Qingshan coldly as he examined Teng Qingshan!
