Chapter 428: Chapter 267: The True Young Hero and His Wings Embark on a New Journey (Please Subscribe)
Duan Yun and the Murong brothers have returned.
Back to the familiar Yuzhu Villa.
Only here could the two feel the warmth of spring.
No, more precisely, it was just Duan Yun feeling the warmth of spring. The Murong brothers’ hearts were still amidst the drifting snowflakes and the howling north wind, the world a vast expanse of desolation.
Because although they had returned, they had not brought back his beloved.
Who would have thought his all-in, wholehearted rescue would end like this?
Both were dissatisfied with the outcome of their cross-dressing endeavor.
Especially the Murong brothers, who hadn’t experienced any of the incidents of sharing meals, sleeping, and bathing with the female disciples on the other side; they rolled into everything, and in the end, after being seriously injured, they realized they had approached the wrong sect.
When the two returned, Shen Ying and Feng Ling’er, the two fishing enthusiasts, were surprisingly not fishing but were engaged in a blood battle.
Upon entering, they were met with fist power tearing through the air and sword lights blossoming like cold plums.
Big White sat on the side, observing the two women’s battle and miming the moves, occasionally inching closer, a living embodiment of a bloodthirsty spectator.
Clearly, the fact that Duan Yun and the Murong brothers did not take them to Mingyu Palace this time had stimulated the two heroines, prompting them to practice desperately.
Yes, the Murong brothers, once considered the bottom layer of Yuzhu Villa, even showed a bit more strength than the two women, causing great discomfort when they realized Duan Yun was willing to take the fake woman instead of them.
So, while Duan Yun and the Murong brothers got wrapped up in events at Mingyu Palace, these two women were also rolling into their own brawl.
Rolling into each other.
They were not content unless they practiced with each for seven to eight hours a day, making the two beautiful girls look somewhat mad.
It can only be said that being around Duan Yun tends to have an influence.
Even the Murong brothers, formerly too lazy to move, are now either actively or passively engaging in arduous cultivation, not to mention others.
Because geniuses are always unwilling to admit defeat, yet Duan Yun, the one-in-a-million genius, always seemed to be just a bit stronger than them.
It has to be said that as the only two heroines currently in Yuzhu Villa, Shen Ying and Feng Ling’er were also one-in-a-million cultivation prodigies.
During the nearly one month that Duan Yun and the Murong brothers were away, both women had advanced a step further in their fist techniques and swordsmanship.
Especially Shen Ying, who was planning to break through once more, to die another time.
After this death, she would probably still fall a bit short of Duan Yun, but she would certainly be a bit stronger than the Murong brothers.
When the two women saw Duan Yun, they naturally paused their practice, both surprised and overjoyed.
But after their joy, they too sensed that something was amiss.
Duan Yun and the Murong brothers were both injured and had not found Ning Qing and Ziyu.
They quickly inquired about the situation, and after Duan Yun explained the mix-up with the door, the Jade Pearl Group of Heroes found themselves in a collective awkward state.
How could such a mistake be made?
If word got out, others might think Yuzhu Villa was full of unsophisticated country bumpkins.
"It wasn’t Mingyu Palace, but Jade Guanyin?" Shen Ying exclaimed in shock.
The Murong brothers coughed and said, "Luckily, the Second Palace Master of Mingyu Palace didn’t act impulsively. She reasoned a bit and seemed somewhat interested in our Young Hero Duan. Otherwise, our efforts would have been in vain, and we both would have been badly hurt."
Feng Ling’er quickly caught the key point and asked, "What do you mean by ’somewhat interested’?"
Duan Yun replied, "It means nothing. He’s just talking nonsense. It was clearly that old woman—fearing she couldn’t beat me—deliberately finding an excuse to back down mid-fight."
He couldn’t very well say that it was the generosity of the Second Palace Master of Mingyu Palace who reasoned with them and forgave them once he owed her a favor, right?
When you’re out and about, your identity is what you make it.
Then, he started to blame the Murong brothers, saying, "After all is said and done, it’s your fault. Not only did you fail to recognize the symbol of Jade Guanyin, but you also made a scene weeping and wailing, acting as if it were a matter of life and death, and caused me to rush and make a mistake that even a newcomer to the Martial World wouldn’t make."
The Murong brothers dared not talk back loudly and could only mutter, "But you were the one who said to deal with the Palace Master of Mingyu Palace first."
"That was then, this is now. You influenced my judgment," Duan Yun replied.
At this time, Feng Ling’er’s expression turned solemn and she said, "Now, those people have fallen into Jade Guanyin’s hands, which is quite troublesome."
In recent years, the most mysterious and gritted-teeth-inducing villainess in the Martial World was probably Jade Guanyin.
Indeed, the Red Building Women’s group of heroes may not have caused as much of a shadow over the handsome Heavenly Pride of the Martial World as Jade Guanyin alone.
Many of the handsome Heavenly Pride had suffered at her hands.
These handpicked men of the sects are the darlings within their sects, each with many admirers; even if taken for debauchery by women, it was a valuable debauchery, as they were considered potential marital alliances. Yet, they carelessly fell prey to Jade Guanyin from the skies, either disappearing without a trace or becoming her living dead.
It was evident how many people wanted Jade Guanyin dead from this.
One could say that there might be more people wanting her dead than those seeking to kill Duan Yun, the Nameless Young Hero, and all the other allies of the Evil Demon.
Yet there she remained, Jade Guanyin; she desired any handsome Heavenly Pride she wished, living untouched on her island, the years passing peacefully, occasionally coming out to prey.
Now, even the notorious Old Demon Duan was someone she considered ravishing, a testament to her confidence and tactics.
Feng Ling’er knew more and felt a deeper hatred for this woman.
Her mother was poisoned by Jade Guanyin during a fight, which led to her suffering from a bizarre disease that made her dance on graves.
"What’s the plan now?" Shen Ying asked, frowning.
The Murong brothers were also a bit frantic, saying, "Nothing bad will happen to Ning Qing and Ziyu, right?"
Feng Ling’er analyzed, "They should be fine. After all, Jade Guanyin only likes men. If she still has an interest in Duan Yun, she will surely keep those two as bait."
