Chapter 42: Chapter 42 Are they supposed to send her? (Please follow)

Wangchun City has four towns on its outskirts, among which Small Spring Town has the most populous and bustling community.

The three religions and nine streams all converge here; if we discuss merely the number of people, it is far more bustling than the most flourishing streets in Wangchun City.

Actually, it is just that there are more poor people in this world.

There are also quite a few martial artists in Small Spring Town.

After all, Wangchun City is one of the largest cities in Yun State, and as Duan Yun’s father said, it has not only numerous people but also many doctors, martial academies, and sects, thus, attracting many people who want to practice martial arts and seek breakthroughs.

Of course, most of the martial artists here are at the lower rungs; those with money and skill have long gone to enjoy themselves in the city.

Duan Yun stood in the largest bookstore in Small Spring Town and asked, "Owner, do you have any powerful martial arts secret books here?"

The owner proudly replied, "Of course, there are quite a few powerful ones. Which kind are you looking for?"

"Tongyou level," said Duan Yun.

Actually, having been in the Martial World for a few months, he understood the levels of martial arts but not extensively.

He only knew about the Qi Sea Realm and the Tongyou Realm, and according to what a monk had said, those in the Tongyou Realm are definitely considered experts in the Martial World, like the elder from the Red House of Lu Mansion.

If he could surpass the Red House elder by just a little, then he should count as a slightly more formidable person in the Tongyou Realm.

So, if he were to buy a secret book, it would naturally need to be of the Tongyou level.

The owner rubbed his ears and asked, "Which level?"

"Tongyou level," Duan Yun honestly replied.

"Why are you making trouble for me? Early in the morning, you ask me to find a Tongyou level secret book, why don’t you just also ask me to fly?"

The owner with a few hairs swirling on his head clearly had a bad temper.

"Then what levels do you have here, Qi Sea?" Duan Yun tried asking.

Seeing that Duan Yun didn’t look like he could afford it, the owner said, "There are a few incomplete Qi Sea books, but these are the treasures of the store. Do you have silver?"

"How much?" Duan Yun asked.

"To copy, one hundred taels; for the original, don’t even talk if it’s less than eight hundred taels," the owner declared.

"Goodbye." Duan Yun turned around and left without another word.

He continued to inquire in several more shops, confirming that there were no Tongyou level secret books in this area.

Those that said they did were clearly lying to scam people.

There were indeed some Qi Sea level secret books, but few and very expensive.

By this time, Duan Yun had almost figured out the trick.

In the market, the secret books that could circulate freely were at most of the Qi Sea level, mostly copies, and possibly with some pitfalls in them.

According to the owner of the most amiable bookstore, only reputable bookstores like theirs were qualified to sell secret books; others either sold fakes or problematic books.

The bookstore owner even used the incident of Mr. Duan indirectly causing people to fall into madness as an example to scare and warn him.

"So the waters of the Martial World are deep, don’t easily practice unknown origin secret books, ours are the most authentic."

After leaving the bookstore, Duan Yun knew his hope of finding a Divine Skill was scant.

Qi Sea level secret books were outrageously expensive, let alone the Tongyou level ones.

According to these people, the secret books that could train someone to the Tongyou Realm were exclusively owned by major sects; to think you could just buy them offhand?

Even if you could, dare you practice, not fearing turning into a madman?

Actually, Duan Yun could understand this reasoning.

He had witnessed the craziness of the martial artists in this world; hardly any of them were normal, likely related to the cultivation techniques.

However, regarding going astray into madness, Duan Yun was not too worried, at least not too much on the path of the Sword Dao.

Because he is a one-in-a-million sword Dao genius!

What others couldn’t achieve, he could; what would drive others mad, surely wouldn’t affect him, he might even create his own improvements.

Although his search for the Divine Skill was fruitless for now, Duan Yun was not discouraged.

Such is the confidence of being a one-in-a-million sword Dao genius.

Since he couldn’t find the Divine Skill for the time being, he would continue to develop his own cultivation technique.

Yes, the secret books available to him now were all rubbish, and it was more cost-effective to create his own.

At least the Breaking Body Sword Energy was worth further intensive training.

Thinking about the enemies who might surround him, Duan Yun made a decisive decision to find a place first, strive to enhance the Breaking Body Sword Energy to another level, while simultaneously inquiring about news of the new Divine Skill.

Compared to cultivating a new Divine Skill, creating his own cultivation technique was evidently much more difficult, requiring this cultivation genius to double his efforts!

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in Lishui City, an old acquaintance had arrived.

The very person in Duan Yun’s eyes, the busty Goddess Catcher Leng Yimeng, had once again come to this small town.

In front of this now-closed pharmacy.

The reason she came was that the news about Duan Yun as Demon Duan had reached here.

Duan Yun, Demon Duan, the most bizarre and terrifying newly risen demon with a notorious reputation.

Upon hearing this name, Leng Yimeng’s first instinct was not to associate it with the gynecologist of Lishui City, thinking it was just a namesake.

Not until more details came, describing the demon as young and handsome, with clear eyes, looking like a doctor.

Only then did Leng Yimeng involuntarily connect the gynecologist Duan Yun and Demon Duan, as well as the case in Lishui City, the more she thought about it, the more terrified she became.

She had said before, those who dared to blatantly stare at her chest had nothing to hide in their hearts.

But she had overlooked a very special case, that is, even if someone had ill intentions, they could still stare at her, because he was a demon who could easily manipulate her!

The Young Doctor Duan, who was here, had already left, and it was said that he had been gone for some time now, but Goddess Catcher Leng Yimeng standing outside the pharmacy was still somewhat nervous.

She feared that she might inadvertently open some taboos, thus altering her life.

Nevertheless, Leng Yimeng still went in, into this cramped pharmacy.

The pharmacy had been closed for a long time and was covered in dust.

Leng Yilian used her sharp nose to sniff around, heading towards the back.

Behind the pharmacy was a small courtyard with two simple straw huts, and the air was permeated with a residual smell of herbs.

The next moment, Leng Yimeng’s tall body couldn’t help but tremble slightly, due to seeing the grass under the crooked-neck tree.

With her experience, there should be a body buried there.

Just looking at the lush growth of the grass made Leng Yimeng feel fearful.

And this fear escalated as she saw the tree with its bark shaved off by Sword Qi and the wall nearly turned to ruins by thrusts of Sword Qi Finger.

It was indeed him!

This demon was truly unfathomable.

That day, he turned a tributor in the County Magistrate Mansion into a sieve with a mere flick of his sword finger, probably a casual act for Demon Duan without even putting in much effort.

She had once fantasized about joining forces with her sister to see if they could fight with this demon, but clearly, she was overthinking it.

That novice who spent the night in the wilderness, who knew nothing, the young gynecologist who sat there admiring her chest and looked harmless, was actually the terrifying Demon Duan from the rumors.

When he looked at her chest back then, he actually had malicious intentions...

The rumors about Demon Duan kept coming, and the stories about his abnormality were not just about his fingers being deadly.

Even men like the Lingshui Twin Heroes had been toyed with by him to become women, so what about a woman like her?

What would she be played into?

Tragic scenes surfaced in the Sea of Consciousness of the Goddess Catcher, and her fear peaked when she discovered the repaired cellar.

Duan Yun indeed had fixed up the cellar, due to it being in disrepair over the years, and he had indeed prepared to imprison the Goddess Catcher.

Standing in this cellar, a sudden cold breeze made Goddess Catcher Leng Yimeng shudder, fearing that the handsome-faced Demon Duan was standing right behind her, smiling innocuously at her...

Leng Yimeng returned to the pharmacy, her body breaking out in goosebumps due to the fear.

She was lucky to be standing here today, otherwise, with a mere whim from the demon, she might have been in that dark cellar enduring humiliation and torture.

Too perilous!

And the authorities had actually assigned her and her sister to investigate this demon, could they really investigate this?

Were they being sent to their doom?
