Chapter 114: Chapter 113: The Old Demon Transfers His Power, Will You Practice It? (Seeking Subscription)
On the cliff, the wind was strong.
After Old Demon Duan forcibly detoxed the Tang Sect members, their bodies quickly recovered from the paralysis.
These followers of Tang Yu and Little Bao from the Tang Sect moved very efficiently.
After Old Demon Duan took his own son away, the inn that had been contaminated with urine had been cleaned up. Even the chef had started cooking again, and it seemed not much different from before the great battle with the Red House fairy.
Even the Jianghu people who had slept outside and left cleanly were returning, some collapsing onto the bamboo rafts and sleeping soundly.
Young Master was taken by Old Demon Duan to act for Heaven, and that sounded rather strange.
So they started eating.
People always need to eat.
Although the inn was clean, considering the scene that had just happened, the Tang Sect members decided to eat outside.
Thus, tables and benches were quickly set up beside the cliff, and the chef prepared some authentic dishes like Maoxuewang, boiled pork slices, and pig ears with chili, and they began to eat again.
Next to them, a Tang Sect disciple looked at the grey donkey and said, "Whose donkey is this? Let’s roast it."
A female Tang Sect disciple said, "It belongs to Young Hero Duan, I think you want to be roasted instead."
Speaking of Young Hero Duan, her face turned red.
The Tang Sect disciple turned pale and said, "No, I don’t want that."
While eating, they naturally talked about Young Master.
They were worried about the Young Master’s safety, but since he was taken away by Old Demon Duan, if they rashly followed and angered Old Demon Duan, wouldn’t that leave Young Master without an intact corpse?
"Do you think something will happen to Young Master? What should we do if something happens?" said one young Tang Sect disciple.
"It’s hard to say. But do you think Young Master will make a move this time?" said a middle-aged man.
He was the oldest here, had followed Young Master the longest, and knew the most.
"Make a move? What do you mean?" the young disciple asked.
"Young Master had been kidnapped four times before, and in three of those instances, he secretly used poison and stealthily killed those who kidnapped him," the middle-aged man recalled.
"Young Master was kidnapped four times? Is he that unlucky?" the newcomer couldn’t help but sigh.
The middle-aged man ate a piece of pork belly and said, "It couldn’t be helped. Young Master has been studying poisons since he was young, and as the saying goes, medicine and poison stem from the same root, and he also consumed many precious medicinal ingredients. Therefore, many evildoers set their sights on him, wanting to use Young Master for refining medicines.
Originally, if Young Master stayed in Tang Family Castle, nothing would have happened, but he’s restless and always thinking about adventuring outside, which creates opportunities.
However, Young Master proved himself worthy. Even though he was kidnapped, he managed to kill those who kidnapped him. You should know that those people were much more skilled than Young Master."
This was why the middle-aged man mentioned whether Young Master would make a move this time.
Another man shook his head and said, "It might be difficult for him to make a move this time."
They had witnessed how Old Demon Duan cruelly harmed the Red House fairy and experienced the process of being forcibly detoxed by Old Demon Duan, knowing how terrifying Old Demon Duan truly was beyond imagination.
Even now, they felt fear when mentioning that man, and the two Tang Sect sisters even clenched their legs tightly, trying their best not to recall that experience that was either delightful or shameful.
And if Young Master dared to plot against such a terrifying figure, one could only say that Young Master truly lived up to being the Heavenly Pride of Tang Sect, but he might likely be instantly refined by Old Demon Duan.
"Do you think, if something happens to Young Master, we can survive?" asked the worried young disciple.
The middle-aged man said, "Who knows, let’s leave it to fate. It’s not the first time Young Master has been easily caught; the sect has long circulated rumors that he is the ’Innate Captured Holy Body,’ meant to endure trials and tribulations of being kidnapped before achieving greatness."
These people all knew that the Tang Family had nine Young Masters. For someone to become the Family Head wasn’t an easy thing.
Tang Tian, the third Young Master of the Tang family, was said to have given up the struggle, immersing himself in singing and dancing, continuously practicing for two and a half years.
...
While the middle-aged man was elaborating on the ’Innate Captured Holy Body’ theory about Young Master, suddenly a female disciple exclaimed, "Young Hero Duan and Young Master are back!"
Seeing Young Master truly returned, the middle-aged man was so scared he almost fell off the chair and down the cliff.
That was too fast!
The newly warmed wine hadn’t even cooled down, yet Old Demon Duan and Young Master had already eradicated the Red House stronghold?
In the eyes of the people, they saw their own Young Master, Tang Yu Little Bao, and Old Demon Duan returning from the mountain path laughing and chatting, looking like they were greatly enjoying their conversation.
Tang Yu Little Bao arrived in front of the inn, watching his subordinates eating and drinking spicily outside, and remained silent for a moment.
Well, as long as he remembered it privately.
At this moment, Duan Yun couldn’t help but say, "After spending time together, I didn’t expect Young Master Bao, a descendant of a prestigious family, to also have a chivalrous heart. These Red House Mad Women blatantly intended to harm you; it just so happens I have a Finger Technique that restrains these mad women. If Young Master Bao doesn’t mind, I’d be glad to teach it to Young Master for the purpose of Demon Extermination."
Hearing that Old Demon Duan was about to transmit his cultivation technique, everyone’s faces changed dramatically.
But Tang Yu and Little Bao remained unaffected and instead expressed their gratitude, "Reject it? How could we possibly refuse! Young Hero Duan’s offer to transmit his technique is something I could only wish for."
At this moment, Duan Yun took out a secret book and said, "This is the Sword Finger Secret Manual. Young Master, you are intelligent and talented. As long as you practice according to this manual, you will succeed. I have other matters to attend to and won’t be able to give further guidance for now.
If I’m free later, I’ll come and visit."
Tang Yu and Little Bao said, "Since Young Hero Duan has other commitments, it wouldn’t be right for us to insist on him staying. We shall meet another day when the time is right."
"May the running waters stay evergreen."
Duan Yun said this and then rode away on Little Grey.
As Duan Yun’s figure disappeared down the path, Tang Yu and Little Bao’s body slumped, nearly falling to the ground if it weren’t for his men’s support.
That was terrifying!
"Young Master, what should we do next?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Go home, go home!" Tang Yu and Little Bao replied, still in shock.
"Hurry and prepare the carriage, the Young Master is going home."
Someone immediately shouted instructions.
Tang Yu and Little Bao had originally planned to swagger through Yun State to enjoy himself, having grown bored of staying in Yu State for too long.
But before they could even leave Yu State, they first encountered the Red Building Women and then Old Demon Duan, scaring him into wanting only to go home.
Yes, Old Demon Duan had cast a great shadow on him; he felt like he had lost half his life playing along with this charade.
Only Tang Family Castle was truly safe!
He decided, unless Old Demon Duan was dealt with, he wouldn’t step foot outside his home!
Just then, a young disciple spoke up, "Young Master, about the cultivation technique Old Demon Duan passed on to you, are you going to practice it or not?"
"Are you crazy? Who would dare to practice anything transmitted by Old Demon Duan?" the middle-aged man responded.
"Yes, exactly," the others agreed.
Within the Martial World, there were bizarre tales about Old Demon Duan’s transfers of power.
"But Old Demon Duan mentioned he would visit later; he might be coming to test you," the young disciple remarked.
That comment startled everyone into fear again.
Yes, if you don’t practice the technique Old Demon Duan gave you, wouldn’t that be seen as disrespectful?
"What should we do?" someone anxiously asked.
"What’s there to fear? Even if Old Demon Duan is formidable, would he dare to scale Tang Family Castle?" the middle-aged man stated.
At this, everyone remembered again, "Right, the Tang Family Castle is known as an invincible fortress in the Martial Arts world."
Even if Old Demon Duan was formidable, how could he overthrow Tang Family Castle?
Just a moment ago, they had indeed been terrified by Old Demon Duan, forgetting that fact.
However, now, having witnessed Old Demon Duan’s mercilessness, Tang Yu and Little Bao looked grim.
He even doubted the safety of Tang Family Castle. Old Demon Duan’s methods and conduct could not be assessed by common sense.
Thinking about Old Demon Duan possibly coming to assess him, and fearing that a perfunctory effort might breed resentment, Tang Yu and Little Bao felt a wave of unease and said, "Let someone else practice this technique first. If there are no issues, then I, the Young Master, will practice it, but not too deeply, just enough to show some proficiency."
"Deep thoughts, Young Master, deep thoughts indeed!" the middle-aged man exclaimed.
"Old Zhang, since you’re so eager, you practice this technique first," Tang Yu and Little Bao suggested.
"Me?"
The middle-aged man felt like his soul was about to leave his body.
"The Innate Captured Holy Body, your voice was very loud; I heard everything clearly. Remember, if you don’t show any results in half a month, you know the consequences!" Tang Yu and Little Bao said earnestly.
"Understood, Young Master."
By then, Old Zhang, who was so spirited before, felt like his soul was floating.
Practicing Old Demon Duan’s technique seemed even more terrifying than testing poison!
But...
He looked at the secret book in his hands, almost crying.
