Misguided practice of sinister cultivation techniques: Slander! The problem lies with you all, not me!-Chapter 1037 - 539: Who Trained These People? (Part 2)
Moreover, Duan Yun felt that Big White was very intelligent and emotionally intelligent. Sometimes, it was even more adept at human interactions than the Murong brothers.
When Big White saw him return, it twirled its hands, and two iron balls instantly spun towards him.
Duan Yun caught them with his right hand, the two heavy iron balls instantly swirling lightly around his shoulder, and then with a swish, they flew back.
Big White received them in the same manner, but it was clear that the force of the iron balls Duan Yun sent was peculiar, causing it to scramble and take a full incense stick's worth of time to barely stabilize.
It can only be said that, even with extraordinary wisdom, there is still a gap between humans and bears.
When Duan Yun excitedly circled this new Mountain Villa, he discovered that it wasn't just newer, bigger, and more elegant, but also more advanced.
The artisans came from all walks of life, and many new technologies from the Mo Sect were used. Even the outhouse was unprecedentedly clean and odorless.
In ancient times, such cleanliness almost felt unreal, even the water flushing was semi-automated.
But there were some flaws with this flushing mechanism, for example, while the Murong brothers were squatting, the water suddenly flushed over their heads, first washing their heads before removing the waste.
The Murong brothers pulled up their pants, came out of the outhouse, and hurriedly, dripping wet, said: "What on earth is the timing of this flush?"
Ning Qing explained: "There is no timing."
"No timing? What do you mean?"
"No timing means there's no fixed timing for the flush, it happens randomly."
The Murong brothers' hands shook as they said: "This is truly a remarkable invention!"
This time, perhaps because they had been away for too long, Duan Yun and the Murong brothers had become complete homebodies, staying inside the manor without stepping out.
In his previous life, Duan Yun had imagined the most wonderful days being financially free, owning a room of his own, with a computer to play games, allowing him to stay home forever.
But the premise was having money and internet access.
Being cooped up at home without the internet felt a bit like confinement to him.
In this life, he had no fate with online games, chatting online, or online romance, but he found that staying in was still very joyful.
After all, he had friends here, good friends, girlfriends, everything he needed.
In the end, some people are just meant to stay together, simply sitting and chatting is interesting in itself.
Let alone that they were all martial arts comrades, sparring with each other when bored.
Though they sparred so often that soon no one wanted to spar with him anymore.
Since those who sparred with him would either end up shouting, "I want to be a great hero!", or find their clothes and pants still wet, sometimes being knocked to their knees.
Duan Yun enjoyed the rare leisure time here, but not everyone in the Mountain Villa could afford such luxury.
Because the Heroic Land was constantly expanding, and in farther places, it was inevitable that other forces would encroach, with cases where the chivalrous spirit and methods were not properly implemented.
And some, in order to climb to the top, even as women below or beside Duan Yun, were working at this time.
As Young Hero Duan's most intimate riding partner, and his only female disciple, Little Yin and Tang Wanwan were on their way doing work.
Ahead was Jianchuan City.
Jianchuan City was located at the border of the Yunyu Two States, where previously the forces of the Yunyu Two States had fought each other.
Despite the talk in the Martial World about Yunyu being as close as family, even sharing a preference for male company, when it came to territory disputes, they battled fiercely.
Jianchuan City was previously dominated by a sect called "Sword Pure Sect".
The Sword Pure Sect actually originated from "Ling Shan Sword Sect".
Ling Shan Sword Sect was a renowned Sword Dao Sect in Yu State, but within the sect, there were the "Sword Sect" and "Energy Sect" cultivation techniques. The Sword Sect focused on reaching the pinnacle of sword moves, believing that even with average inner strength, achieving the pinnacle of sword moves would still make it easy to defeat enemies, while the Energy Sect emphasized "nurturing energy to wield the sword", believing that when energy was abundant, every sword move was earth-shattering, and sword moves were not as crucial.
Though both belonged to "Ling Shan Sword Sect", due to differing philosophies, there were naturally many disagreements.
Later, the Sword Sect leader Xie Yuliang and the Energy Sect leader Li Tianxing developed irreconcilable conflicts, battling atop Ling Shan for three days and nights, ultimately ending with Xie Yuliang losing by half a move, with the tendons in his right arm severed.
Being proud and Li Tianxing's senior, Xie Yuliang couldn't swallow this, so he left with his trusted disciples and founded the "Sword Pure Sect".
This is the origin of the "Sword Pure Sect".
Relying on its unconventional sword moves, the Sword Pure Sect became the dominant force here, poised to claim Jianchuan City for itself.
But at this time, Heroic Land expanded.
And stated that everything here would be done according to the rules of Heroic Land.
People from Sword Pure Sect were inherently "pure", quite straightforward, and inclined to "draw their swords".
But this time, they actually held back, claiming they could cooperate.
Because, although Sword Pure Sect was strong, it depended on who they were comparing themselves with.
In the end, they were just a branch off the Ling Shan Sword Sect. Against the original dominant force, they had suppressed them as a strong dragon does.
But the tables turned, compared to Yuzhu Manor, who is the dragon, and who is the snake?
Though Sword Pure Sect reluctantly agreed, everyone knew that was mere lip service.
For this place to truly become Heroic Land, rich in chivalric spirit, it required a Great Hero to reorganize.
Little Yin and Tang Wanwan were the Great Heroes here to reorganize everything.
Before entering the city, they were prepared to see the sincerity of the local forces.
If they showed enough sincerity, they could be well cultivated.
If the sincerity was lacking or they simply paid lip service, then they would eradicate the whole family.
So as Little Yin and Tang Wanwan journeyed, their mood wasn't exactly light.
However, upon entering the city, they couldn't help but feel relieved.
Because from the moment they entered the city, everyone's face was adorned with a smile, and they behaved very amiably.
For instance, when two people walking ahead accidentally bumped into each other, they immediately bowed to each other in apology, a display of refined elegance.
Little Yin and Tang Wanwan were momentarily bewildered.
Because not even in the areas around Wangchun City, where the chivalric spirit was best executed, did they see such a scene; it was usually, "What are you looking at?", "Looking at you!", "Just you wait!"
After all, people have tempers!
Especially martial artists, who are more prone to conflicts.
But in Jianchuan City, there was only harmony. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Rich and poor, adults and children, everyone displayed great manners.
Tang Wanwan couldn't help but remark: "Why aren't there even any unruly children here?"
That's actually the strangest part; children are the hardest to control, and unruly children are everywhere, no matter where you go.
But here, there are scarcely any unruly children.
Little Yin also couldn't help but say: "Why does it feel like everyone here has been conditioned?"
Tang Wanwan looked somewhat confused and said: "Who conditioned them? They're already like this before we even got here?"
Little Yin said: "Let's go to Sword Pure Sect, they must know the situation."
Tang Wanwan nodded and headed towards the Sword Pure Sect residence in the west of the city.
From the east to the west of the city, the residents remained harmonious, it was hard to find even minor faults.
However, Tang Wanwan increasingly felt something was strange and eerie.
Humans are like the Tai Chi Diagram, a blend of black and white. Even the kindest person has a dark side, merely suppressed. If the Tai Chi Diagram only had one color, it couldn't be called Tai Chi, and if humans had only one color, would they still be human?
And these people before her gave her the illusion of having only one color.
If this is truly a result of conditioning, then who did it?
Who could condition them to this extent?
The only comparison Tang Wanwan could think of was her handsome master's cultivation technique "I Want to Be a Great Hero!", which baptized others with supreme heroic spirit, making them desperately want to "be a great hero".
But the conditioning method here was clearly gentler.
Though, for some reason, she felt that within this gentleness, there was a hint of insidiousness.
