Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Wisdom Sparkles, Breaking Body Sword Qi, Unexpected Upgrade! (Seeking Follow-up Reads)

"Imprisonment?"

After hearing Duan Yun’s words, Murong brothers were shocked.

He had been pursued by his former lovers, now his sisters, for many years and had never considered such a thing.

Can a sister be imprisoned?

Duan Yun said confidently, "They’ll go mad, daring to chop you, it’s because they haven’t been thrashed enough. If they are locked in the basement, hands and feet tied up, a beating might do the job; they might stop being crazy."

Murong brothers shook their head, "No, I can’t bring myself to do it."

Duan Yun said, "If you can’t, I can do it for you, guaranteeing they won’t trouble you again."

By now he understood, treating people with care was a slow healing process, but for those who easily go mad, beating them was the most effective method, if not, then just increase the intensity.

Then he would just need to hit harder.

Of course, if he hit too hard, Murong brothers, this devoted follower, would definitely not stand it first.

After all, one should take initiative, tie up all those Flower Fanatics and the White-Haired Witch sisters, educate them well, then release them.

Unfortunately, he didn’t have the money to buy such information, and didn’t know where those sisters were, only waiting for them to come to him.

If it was before tonight, Shen Ying would definitely think Duan Yun was bluffing.

Because Murong brothers’ sisters are quite famous women in the Martial World, precisely the kind one should not provoke.

But tonight’s outcome made her feel, he might actually be able to capture them.

Thinking of these things distressed and entangled Murong brothers deeply, he said, "Stop talking about me, don’t you have enemies?"

Duan Yun seriously said, "As I’ve said before, I’ve recently entered the Martial World, behaved well towards others, naturally I don’t have many enemies."

Murong brothers said, "Not many, means there are some."

Duan Yun replied, "In the Martial World, no matter how well you treat others, there are still some mad people that just bite others."

"That’s true, just like me, encountering those eunuchs for no reason," Shen Ying profoundly said.

Looking into Duan Yun’s clear eyes, Murong brothers and Shen Ying almost believed his words.

Duan Yun, being new to the Martial World, even if he had enemies, there were probably just a few.

Actually, Duan Yun already had a plan.

This time, the Dual Masters of Sword and Saber made a good debut, with satisfying effects; he must find a free time to kill off all those looking for him.

As long as he kills his enemies beforehand, then he’d have fewer enemies.

The next day, Duan Yun was about to go out with a saber to kill, but Shen Ying stopped him.

The house was destroyed last night, I have nowhere to stay, shouldn’t we fix a couple more rooms.

Duan Yun thought about it, that indeed made sense.

These past few nights they hardly slept, so it wasn’t a concern, but since Shen Ying agreed to stay and help, at least he should arrange a room for her.

Surely she couldn’t just stay in the same room as him?

At this moment, Murong brothers also looked at him and said, "Save the lazy man, I was digging half of the night yesterday, back sore and legs hurt, wanted to sleep in this morning, but the roof and walls are gone."

Originally, Murong brothers’ room was the largest and most luxurious here, but now it is the most broken and run-down.

It’s unsalvageable.

The type that no one wants to save.

So they had to select two slightly better rooms to repair.

Initially, when Duan Yun first arrived, he barely chose those two rooms from a bunch of dilapidated houses.

Now to reselect, it was truly like picking a beauty from the dung, adding difficulties to difficulties.

However, they still chose two rooms that were not particularly broken.

Hmm, just that the walls had thirteen holes, several parts of the roof were missing, and only half of the window was left.

In short, not particularly broken.

Because the more broken ones you see, the more refined these two seem.

These two tile-roofed houses were not easy to re-tile as the wooden frame structure for tiling was completely damaged.

Thinking of the bamboo in the graveyard behind, the three people agreed to make a bamboo house on this broken foundation.

The always lying Murong brothers also had to be forced to work as this time he was the least capable, and the least capable had no rights; otherwise, he could only sleep in that old house missing half a wall.

Murong and his brothers started to repair the walls of the new house, Shen Ying was fixing the windows, while Duan Yun took Wen Rou to the graveyard to cut bamboo, casually dumping the bodies of several eunuchs there.

Thus, Duan Yun, carrying a stack of corpses, went to the graveyard, appearing like a messenger from the Netherworld.

During the day, as one entered into the vast graveyard, a bone-chilling cold could be felt instantly.

Grave mounds were crowded together, exuding a strong smell of earth due to the recent rainfall.

Prepared red candle wax and burnt paper money on the ground had already mingled with the mud.

Pitch-black bamboo grew wildly in this part of the graveyard, blocking the sky.

The most terrifying were the scarecrows made by someone unknown; in this dim bamboo mountain, they sometimes abruptly entered your line of sight through the gaps in the bamboo, as if ill-intentioned people were spying on you.

"Damn it, this scarecrow looks just like a defeated bride."

Duan Yun looked at a scarecrow standing there, wearing rotting red clothes like a bride on her wedding day, and couldn’t help but comment.

He didn’t know if it was a local custom or what, but there were quite a few scarecrows in this area, creating an ominous feeling.

Duan Yun selected several large black bamboos and began cutting them down.

As Wen Rou was unsheathed, a single sweep, though not utilizing Sword Qi, was still extremely sharp.

The black bamboos, as thick as bowl mouths, were easily chopped down, and Duan Yun carried them back.

After one trip, finding it too troublesome, he then told Shen Ying that next time he would simply throw them down from the mountain for her to catch.

Shen Ying nodded and said, "These bamboos are not small, another thirty or so should be enough."

Thus, Duan Yun climbed the mountain again, this time reaching a higher place.

The blade swept again, and the black bamboos fell at the sound.

Duan Yun, holding a bundle of cut bamboo, stood in front of a mud slope, where the outline of Yuzhu Villa was barely visible.

Then he shouted loudly, "The bamboos are coming!"

His voice carried far.

Very soon, Shen Ying’s voice came back — "Send them over!"

Duan Yun sank his horse stance, adopted the Jade Sword Stance, and channeled the Jade Sword True Qi into his arms.

In the next moment, he pushed forcefully, sending the bundle of bamboo flying down the mountain.

The flying bamboo, wrapped in True Qi, flew like a celestial being towards the courtyard of Yuzhu Villa, shattering any bamboo in its path.

Shen Ying stood in the courtyard, watching the bundle of bamboos whizzing towards her; with a sweep of her right hand and leveraging her movement, the once unstoppable bamboo was easily caught in her hand.

After five deliveries, Shen Ying couldn’t help but shout, "Enough bamboo!"

Afterward, no more bamboo was sent, but nearly half an hour had passed and Duan Yun had not returned.

Murong, who was weary from working and wanted to lie down, couldn’t help but wonder, "It’s been so long, isn’t this guy slacking off?"

On the graveyard hill, Duan Yun stood in front of the four eunuchs’ corpses, closing his eyes and maintaining the Jade Sword Stance.

A barely perceptible aura swirled around him.

While performing Jade Sword Stance to throw the bamboo, he had sensed this aura.

This was an aura different from Moonlight and nature’s spiritual energy, evoking feelings of darkness and corrosion.

In this graveyard, this aura was everywhere, but it became more pronounced in front of these four newly deceased eunuchs.

"Corpse Qi? Death Energy?" Duan Yun wondered.

Duan Yun tried to absorb a bit of Death Energy into his body, then quickly stopped.

Because he felt death and darkness, he knew absorbing this aura was like taking poison; he had also tried to absorb sunlight after successfully absorbing moonlight, but quickly gave up.

Because the sunlight was too intense and potent, it felt like it would ignite him.

Yet, this Death Energy was no less intense than sunlight, appearing more lethal and cold, but more importantly, it was more tangible than sunlight and moonlight.

Absorbing moonlight, Duan Yun was already well-practiced, but each time he needed to maintain the stance and enter a state of emptiness.

However, this Death Energy in his perception was like some kind of "strange fragrance" that could be noticed without emptying his mind.

At that moment, a flash of Extraordinary Wisdom crossed Duan Yun’s mind, extending a finger, the Breaking Body Sword Energy transformed into threads and burst forth.

In the next moment, Breaking Body Sword Energy and Death Energy merged together.

Damn!

Could this really work?
