Duan Yun noticed the woman in the green dress on the carriage.
Since entering the Martial World, he could barely claim he had seen all sorts of beauties, such as the Goddess Catcher sisters, and Shen Ying.
Yet upon seeing this woman, he still felt somewhat captivated.
However, Duan Yun quickly lost interest in her.
It was because he recognized that this green-dressed woman was attracted to the same sex.
Her gaze was focused on women, she showed no concern for handsome men like himself.
Yes, although he wore a broad-brimmed hat, his figure and demeanor were still handsome.
The only explanation was that the woman was interested in the same sex.
She had no interest in him, and he had no interest in her.
Behind that green-dressed woman, inside the pitch-black carriage, Hua Wen and Hua Wu were curled up like pitiful little puppies.
They were being confined by Peacock because Hua Wu had taken another naked sprint and hence brushed past Old Demon Duan.
Duan Yun continued walking forward and realized that Shen Ying was indeed listening to storytelling.
The storytelling stall was clearly set up temporarily, yet the seating was divided into different classes.
The seat Shen Ying occupied was clearly the more expensive one, and there was tea and melon-seed pastries on the small table beside her.
After they had killed the eunuch, they had shared some of the spoils; because the Murong brothers performed the worst and basically didn’t need money, Duan Yun was keeping their share for them, while Shen Ying had received a quarter.
Her reason was that she wanted to shop and dine.
It seemed most of her silver was spent on listening to the storyteller.
It was a mystery what kind of magic Old Demon Duan’s story held, as she had been listening for days without growing tired of it.
Above, a fat storyteller, also with a red ribbon wrapped around his head, was doing his storytelling.
"Old Demon Duan’s gender remains a mystery now, as he can make others switch genders, so naturally he can be either male or female; his identity is even more enigmatic, suddenly appearing from nowhere, with no knowledge of his Cultivation Technique heritage, yet every path he takes is immensely evil."
"Through this old man’s summary, as well as the accounts of one of the few survivors, One-eyed Green Dragon Monk, Old Demon Duan has a penchant for playing the role of a Young Hero, righteously overcoming evil. When facing Old Demon Duan, one of the few survival strategies is to obey him, to recognize him as a Young Hero acting heroically."
The storyteller on stage was presenting a survival guide in the event of encountering Old Demon Duan.
Old Demon Duan himself was not paying attention to the story; he was looking for someone to test his skills on.
This town was crowded with "heroes" from the Martial World, and was a major base for both the Thunder God and Mother Sect and Red House, thus acting out here was likely to expose him and result in a beating.
He needed to look outside to see if there were any fish that had slipped through the net.
Duan Yun wandered around the town, then left and roamed the outskirts.
Different from the bustling town, the outside was deathly quiet, as if they were two completely different worlds.
The distant water of the lake flickered with ripples, losing its daytime elegance in the dark surroundings, and appeared profound and terrifying instead.
Duan Yun felt a bit hungry and, considering that so many in the town were after his life, decided to head back to figure out his meal.
And as he walked down the path, he truly found a suitable target.
A man clad in red clothes, a madman of the Thunder God and Mother Sect, was walking over from the other side of the mountain.
This man in red, one of those dispatched to find Duan Yun’s whereabouts.
Due to the influence of the graveyard, they could only roughly locate Old Demon Duan’ position, and finding him directly would mean paying a certain price, so they opted for the more foolish method first.
However, after searching for a long time, this disciple of the Thunder God and Mother Sect found nothing.
He was in a foul mood, so upon seeing Duan Yun, he wanted to vent his anger.
This was outside of the town, with no one to restrain them, wasn’t it just perfect?
But in the next moment, the man’s muscles tensed up.
For the Life Flute on his head unexpectedly began to vibrate slightly and grew hot.
This indicated that Old Demon Duan was nearby.
Yet, the only person here was this young man who happened to be walking towards him.
The Thunder sect madman’s courage drained away, and he could only pretend not to see him and walk in the direction of the town.
There was only this one path here, and it was not wide.
The Thunder sect madman was extremely afraid, but had no choice but to compose himself and continue walking.
At this moment, he could not show any sign of oddity, or else he might very well draw the attention of Old Demon Duan.
The man wearing the bamboo hat, judging from his hands and feet, truly seemed young, fitting the characteristics of Old Demon Duan.
They passed by each other without incident.
Lei Frenzy continued to maintain his composure, walking forward.
Now, there was no sound behind him, ahead, the warm glow of the town was just in front.
It’s all right, it must be all right.
Just when Lei Frenzy was about to breathe a sigh of relief, at that moment, a ghostly voice sounded—"Do you sense me?".
This voice made half of Lei Frenzy’s soul nearly fly away in fright.
His head stiffly turned, and then he saw Duan Yun’s handsome face.
"Old Demon Duan!"
Lei Frenzy blurted out.
Hearing these three words, Duan Yun’s expression darkened a lot and said, "Evil fiend, taste my Beiming Divine Skill!"
In the next instant, his palm was already pressed on Lei Frenzy’s sparsely-haired head.
The hand technique he comprehended in the dream brought forth a strange suction force, and the True Qi in Lei Frenzy’s mind surged towards his palm like tadpoles.
Lei Frenzy, already scared half to death, felt even more dazed after this powerful suction, his head mushy, his eyes dull, even forgetting to counterattack or beg for life.
For a moment, where Duan Yun’s palm touched Lei Frenzy’s head, the air became distorted, making Duan Yun’s face seem twisted from afar.
Hmm?
After Lei Frenzy’s True Qi was absorbed into his palm, Duan Yun was surprised to find that it contained the Power of thunder and lightning.
The thunder and True Qi were nearly fused, able to flow through the meridians into the Dantian for storage.
That explained it!
He had previously suspected that he might have practiced the wrong technique, after all, the Cultivation Technique understood from the runes on Lei Frenzy’s body should have some relation to thunder.
Now it seemed he had not practiced wrongly at all!
He himself did not produce thunder and lightning, but he could possess the Power of thunder and lightning simply by transferring it from these people.
He did not know if the True Qi of the Thunder God and Mother Sect individuals inherently contained thunder and lightning, or whether the "Beiming Divine Skill" would automatically generate the Power of thunder and lightning during the absorption process of True Qi. In any case, as the True Qi carrying electric current entered his body, Duan Yun felt exhilarated.
Truly thrilling.
At this time, Duan Yun suddenly turned his head and spotted two passersby with fishing rods not far away.
These two, although appearing to be ordinary fishermen, seemed off as they had weapons with them.
Having been noticed by Duan Yun, the two fishermen were greatly alarmed and wanted to retreat.
"Stop! I, Young Hero Duan Lang, have lived a life of kindness, upholding justice. Why do you flee? Could it be that you too are villains with guilty consciences?"
While still single-handedly holding onto Lei Frenzy’s skull and continuing the absorption, Duan Yun asked.
Seeing his youthful and handsome appearance, and hearing him claim to be a young hero, they thought to themselves, "This is bad, he might be Old Demon Duan."
The fisherman on the left reacted swiftly, saying, "Young Hero Duan, we are merely passing through and saw you executing this crazed man who has done nothing but evil. We did not want to disturb you and decided to leave."
The fisherman on the right caught on and said, "Young Hero Duan, please don’t misunderstand, we too are men of valor. We often help the orphans and widows next door."
Duan Yun’s face softened, and he said, "Well, since we are all in the same path, go on with your business."
The two fishermen quickly walked away.
On their way, one of them lowered his voice and said, "Li, are we still going fishing? We just encountered Mr. Duan himself, nearly losing our lives."
"Fish! Even if it costs us our lives, we shall fish. Would you, a fisherman, return empty-handed? You wouldn’t want to be laughed at by your wife."
The fisherman felt the reasoning was sound and so the two headed toward the lakeside.
At this moment, Lei Frenzy, who was being absorbed by Duan Yun, suddenly had a bright glint in his dull eyes.
Duan Yun’s eyes also brightened.
Because in that instant, their thoughts synchronized, and Lei Frenzy felt Duan Yun’s overwhelming Heroic Spirit!
"I want to be a Hero!"
Lei Frenzy exclaimed with shining eyes.
