In the afternoon, Duan Yun was also packing his luggage.
This ti, he even brought two extra sets of clothes because eting Shen Ying's parents was a big deal, and he needed to dress properly.
But at that mont, a wisp of purple smoke drifted in.
It was the kind of purple smoke you see rising from an incense burner at sunrise.
He hadn't lit any incense, so where did the purple smoke co from?
Duan Yun quickly discovered that the purple smoke was drifting in from outside.
Not only that, but it lingered without dissipating, swirling in the air.
As Duan Yun watched, he found it intriguing.
The smoke was floating in from the window, so he climbed straight out of it.
Once out the window, he could see this band of purple smoke stretching very long.
If soone was controlling the purple smoke, that ant this person had extraordinary power, perhaps even no less than his own.
Because the last person to pull off sothing like this was the Ghost Mother.
Even though he had fiercely defeated her, Duan Yun still felt his inner strength was slightly inferior.
Duan Yun followed the purple smoke upwards; this smoke seed to have a life of its own. When he moved, it swayed into various shapes.
In Duan Yun's eyes, it was like a beauty in a gauzy dress seducing him.
And then, he really saw a beauty.
In the bamboo grove, that beauty sat on a bamboo stalk, shoeless, her white feet dangling and swinging, and that wisp of purple smoke swayed with her.
The bamboo grove was serene, but she, like her feet, was pure and as dazzling as Ming Xing.
When Duan Yun first saw her, she was just like this.
He hadn't expected that the one using smoke to lure him would be Ming Xing.
Duan Yun couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect you to co looking for ."
Ming Xing laughed, her bright eyes becoming even more lively, as if they could speak.
"Can't I co look for you? Only you are allowed to find ?" Ming Xing said.
Duan Yun shrugged and said, "I never said that."
Ming Xing continued, "Have you forgotten you owe sothing?"
"What?" Duan Yun asked.
"A favor. Young Hero Duan, don't you rember what you said?" Ming Xing teased.
Duan Yun said, "I, as a man of my word, of course rember."
"Good. Now is the ti for you to repay it."
Ming Xing swayed the bamboo, her whole body shaking like a debt collector.
Duan Yun couldn't help but say, "Tell , how should I repay it?"
Ming Xing pondered, "There's a saying in the Martial World: 'A debt of favor can be repaid with one's body.'
Duan Yun imdiately clutched his chest, saying, "I'm not married yet."
Ming Xing looked disdainful and said, "As if I'm married either, just teasing you, and you took it seriously."
"Let's go, follow ."
Duan Yun asked confusedly, "So urgent?"
Ming Xing said, "If it weren't urgent, would I have co all this way to find you myself?"
Duan Yun hesitated, "But I..."
He really had sothing important to do; eting Shen Ying's parents was no small matter.
Ming Xing asked confusedly, "What, you want to go back on your word?"
Duan Yun said, "No, I have important matters to attend to."
Ming Xing raised an eyebrow, questioning, "What could be more important than my matter?"
As the master of Mingyu Palace, she personally ca to find him, and he wouldn't go with her; this made the "Martial Arts Legend" sowhat displeased.
Because in the Martial World, with just a beckoning of her finger, martial artists wanting to curry favor with her could line up from Yun State to Yu State, and no one could refuse her.
Yet this guy was about to do sothing that reversed heaven and earth.
Seeing Ming Xing like this, Duan Yun said, "I rember I said, what you ask to do must not go against chivalry."
Ming Xing snorted and said, "If what I want you to do not only doesn't go against chivalry but can save countless people from disaster, would you say he should go, that young lady?"
Saying this, Ming Xing looked towards a certain spot in the bamboo grove.
Shen Ying walked out from there.
Seeing Shen Ying's white silk covering her jade feet, Ming Xing was also a bit surprised and said, "I didn't expect there to be a successor to the Nine Death Silkworm Technique."
Shen Ying gracefully said, "As expected, the Second Palace Master of Mingyu Palace is knowledgeable."
Ming Xing tilted her head and said, "So, the sa question, should he go?"
As she said this, her tone was sowhat playful.
The Martial Arts Legend, the master of Mingyu Palace, speaking with a playful tone, such a thing would be hard for the Bloodthirsty Storyteller to embellish.
But that was indeed her tone.
Shen Ying said, "Go, and co back soon."
Duan Yun asked confusedly, "But we agreed..."
Shen Ying calmly said, "Proper matters are more urgent, parents can be visited anyti."
Upon hearing this sentence, Ming Xing's expression changed slightly, then she said, "Go or not, ti is of the essence."
Duan Yun said to Shen Ying, "I'll be back as soon as possible."
Shen Ying nodded and said, "Be careful on the road."
Ming Xing no longer listened to their conversation, her figure turned into a ray of light, drifting northwards.
Duan Yun nodded to Shen Ying, then quickly followed her.
Once Duan Yun and Ming Xing's figures disappeared over the mountain, the calm expression on Shen Ying's face was gone.
What a coincidence, she just had to co at this ti.
This woman is so annoying!
On the road, Duan Yun and Ming Xing both used their movent techniques, traveling swiftly side by side.
Ming Xing's steps blood with lotus flowers, spinning and constantly renewing with energy.
Duan Yun began by treading the air, then stepped with his left foot on his right, and eventually sprouted thunder wings, flying through the air.
Both were sowhat amazed at each other's speed.
Since the battle at Mingyu Palace, they hadn't been in contact, and Ming Xing considered herself to have improved incredibly in this ti, rising a good two or three levels; even if she faced two Duan Yuns, she could win.
Duan Yun was in a similar situation; he considered himself to have grown through fighting, having defeated many formidable experts — even with two Ming Xings, he could subdue them.
