The two of them really enjoyed this feeling.
Because it gave them a sense of progression towards becoming the kind of woman who could step on Duan Yun with their jade feet.
Of course, Duan Yun was most grateful not to them, but to Leng Ying and Leng Yixue.
If it weren't for these two sisters, he really wouldn't have found this stinky rat. If he hadn't found the stinky rat, he would have worries, and with worries, he couldn't sleep well. If he didn't sleep well, it might affect his Extraordinary Wisdom, and affecting his Extraordinary Wisdom would impede the birth of a generation of Heroes.
In so sense, Leng Ying and Leng Yixue are the mothers of this future Hero.
Duan Yun spent a while picking, and finally selected two pairs of earrings to give to Leng Ying and Leng Yixue.
One pair of these earrings was crystalline and translucent like lychees, the other flawless white jade like flowing water droplets.
Leng Ying snatched the earrings and said, "Let it be said first, this is your thank-you gift, not a token of love. Even if it were a token of love, my mother might not agree."
"Such a letdown?"
Even the Murong brothers, who were usually full of respect for beautiful girls, couldn't help thinking this.
They found that Duan Yun was toxic, and beautiful girls who encountered him more or less beca disappointed.
Of course, within the Murong brothers' minds, all of this was Duan Yun's fault.
How could beautiful girls be wrong!
It was only upon encountering this guy and being poisoned by him that the beautiful girls lost heart!
Duan Yun quickly emphasized, "Auntie, this truly is a thank-you gift, very pure, with absolutely no extra explanation!"
Seeing Leng Ying about to speak again, Duan Yun imdiately pre-empted her, "Even thinking about it is wrong; thinking itself is a cri!"
"Hmph, your awareness is quite high now," Leng Ying said, puffing out her chest.
"Of course, Young Hero Duan has a sterling reputation."
At this mont, Leng Ying suddenly asked, "So, do you want us to stay?"
"Is it okay?"
"You wish!"
Saying this, she and her sister Leng Yixue left, leaving only their graceful backs.
The Murong brothers walked over and said, "Stop looking, even if you keep staring, they won't co back. Others are Goddess Catchers of the Qingqi Bureau, while you are branded as a Demon outside, unworthy of them."
Duan Yun replied, "I possess Extraordinary Wisdom, and I'm unworthy of them?"
The Murong brothers felt a jolt in their hearts, joking, "This guy's such a letdown too, failing to understand gentleness and affection for beautiful girls, and yet so many people like him. Is there justice in this world?"
Saying this, they stomped away in anger.
On the road, Leng Yixue, holding the earrings, asked, "Why didn't you agree to him just now?"
Leng Ying, who had already put on the earrings, spun around and said, "He has in his heart!"
"He will be mine sooner or later!"
Leng Yixue quipped, "Can't you stop being such a letdown?"
Leng Ying remained delighted, "This isn't a letdown; this is an ideal, a realizable ideal."
...
If the deaths of Rat Phase and Chicken Phase hadn't been so quietly snuffed out, it would certainly have been a major event in the Martial World.
But because of Duan Yun's involvent, it all beca a minor affair.
As the Murong brothers put it, in the Heroic Land, there's no such thing as a big issue.
Even if there were a big issue, they had the confidence to resolve it.
This is the confidence of the Jade Pearl Heroes.
...
On the graveyard, a skinny Taoist carried a big sword, overlooking the Mountain Villa below.
On his shoulders and head perched five cats, each of a different color.
Once the Sect Leader of the Kongtong Sect, Li Jianqing now had a new na, Li Jianmo.
Li Jianqing was most famous not for being the leader of the deeply rooted Kongtong Sect, but for, after his grand wedding, having half of his Power taken by his Daoist couple and being heartlessly abandoned, yet still thinking it was his fault.
His wife was never wrong.
"Losing half of his power upon marriage," and "Wife can never be wrong!" had beco Li Jianqing's trademark, profoundly impacting the entire Martial World.
So said it was the ultimate turtle-like behavior, so said such a man was truly a disgrace to the Kongtong Sect, others vowed never to beco such a wimp.
Yet, absurdly, Li Jianqing's experience didn't awaken the n of the Martial World. Instead, following him, this practice of losing half one's power as dowry beca even more prevalent.
To this day, especially in the Jiangzhou area, this practice has grown and been even formalized.
In Jiangzhou, particularly in the west, without thirty years of deep Power, you simply couldn't get a wife.
Jiangzhou won declared that a man's Power is part of the dowry; ek won can only take half their husband's Power. True Jiangzhou won demand at least seventy percent.
In other words, if you do not pass down half of your cultivation as dowry, don't even think about marrying a woman of equal standing.
To other regions, this practice seems utterly ridiculous, but to the people of Jiangzhou, it's all quite normal.
No choice —man cannot live without marriage.
Li Jianqing was quite comforted by this.
Because this was the righteous path he believed in.
His wife could never be wrong!
At this mont, he touched one of the tabby cats on his shoulder.
These seven cats were his wife's betrothal gift. She loved cats so much that she didn't think seven were enough.
Yet when he wanted to raise more to win her affection, she ran off with soone else.
So say his wife coveted his Power and left after inheriting it. He dismissed such talk as nonsense, an insult to his wife!
So he killed those who spoke so.
Including the father who scolded his wife and several apprentices who insinuated negative things about her.
So say he had gone mad, turning from a coward to a demon.
But he hadn't gone mad at all.
He was just a man who respected his wife.
What's wrong with a man respecting his spouse!
Afterwards, he resigned from his position as Sect Leader, left the Kongtong Sect, taking away only the seven cats his wife left behind.
This sect, which had raised him and passed down his skills, was biased against his wife and thus unworthy of having him as their Sect Leader.
He took excellent care of these seven cats; in others' eyes, honoring one's ancestors was not even comparable to this.
Li Jianqing believed that, as his wife was a cat-loving woman, if he took good care of these seven cats, she might change her mind and return to see him.
And during this period of raising cats, his heart was filled with respect and filial piety for his wife and her cats. Perhaps it was this reverence that moved either heaven or so deity, as his swordsmanship suddenly made rapid leaps.
He would kill any man who disrespected won, any man who did not properly honor his wife, and the more he killed, the stronger his swordsmanship grew, eventually becoming a fad Sword Demon.
Now, he not only had seven cats but also a green turtle shell strapped to his back.
This was a gift from his fellow friend, Zhao Lin, the Sect Leader of Luolin Blade.
Zhao Lin, like him, greatly respected and honored his wife, often being called a coward, but he took pride in this, carrying a turtle shell daily to declare his ambitions.
This is why Li Jianqing and he beca instant friends.
The more Li Jianqing wandered the Martial World, the more he realized there were indeed many kindred spirits, though they were not doing well enough nor ruthlessly enough.
In his view, not being perceived as a coward was in itself a cardinal sin; if soone dared to be disrespectful to his wife, it was a capital offense.
However, he was kindhearted, and sotis only transford them into cowards instead of killing them.
In Li Jianqing's vision, the future Martial World would be full of n who, like him, respected won, creating a truly grand Martial World.
So people could be forgiven, but so in his eyes could not be forgiven.
Old Demon Duan disrespected beauties, treating extrely beautiful won as mounts, including even the most renowned Fairy of Tianzhou as a steed, which had reached his ears.
This almost made him die of anger.
The thought that such a demon was still living in the world ant Li Jianqing couldn't eat or sleep well.
Therefore, he ca here to kill this Evil Demon.
This was one of the biggest obstacles to the rise of the cowardly Martial World.
He wanted to sacrifice Old Demon Duan as a banner, to let everyone know the consequences of hindering the cowardly Martial World!
What he wanted was enough cowardice.
So he ca here to kill this Evil Demon.
This was one of the biggest obstacles to the rise of the cowardly Martial World.

What he wanted was enough cowardice; so he ca here to kill this Evil Demon.
