MurongBrothers panicked and said, "What if she’s not interested?"

"Who knows," Feng Ling’er replied.

Duan Yun couldn’t help but grumble to himself, "What does he mean she might still be interested in me? Who is he underestimating? Even if my charm is lacking, it wouldn’t just last for a single month."

He calmly declared, "We’ll set off tomorrow to rescue them from Yellow Jade Island."

Shen Ying frowned and said, "Not to mention how we will get onto the island, what about your injuries..."

"It’s a minor injury; it’ll heal on the way. Time waits for no one, we must secure the intelligence today."

Duan Yun made his decision.

Feng Ling’er frowned and said, "This time it’s probably not going to be easy."

"What’s there not to be easy about? Just take out all the silver used for chivalrous deeds. As long as we pay enough silver, we can even find out what color underwear Jade Guanyin prefers," Duan Yun answered.

For these operations, Duan Yun had always purchased intelligence from the Curtain-door Organization, even his disguises.

In his heart, the Curtain-door Organization was highly professional; apart from being expensive, they had no other faults.

But that afternoon, he and Feng Ling’er went to the Curtain-door Organization, only to realize that he was too naive.

The intelligence on Jade Guanyin proved to be even harder to get than that of Mingyu Palace.

While the whereabouts of Mingyu Palace’s two Palace Masters were incredibly secretive, the dwellings of several elders were not quite as mysterious.

The main reason being that Mingyu Palace sought people to test their strength; thus, they interacted with the outside world. Naturally, this was akin to an egg with a slight crack, manageable to tap into.

Even if you couldn’t tap too far inside, the peripherals were still within reach.

But Jade Guanyin was different.

Besides two or three mysterious disciples, Jade Guanyin had no other followers.

Or rather, she had those living dead as her disciples.

And the living dead couldn’t really be considered people, they were just highly obedient expendables.

The entire Yellow Jade Island was self-sufficient thanks to these sensory-deprived expendables, making it almost like an egg without any cracks, impossible even for the professional Curtain-door Organization to tap.

The key point was that the Curtain-door Organization hadn’t tapped into this ’egg’ for many years.

Speaking of this matter, the head of the Curtain-door Organization showed a troubled expression.

"Both of you are repeat customers, with so much shiny silver, it’s not like we wouldn’t want to earn it."

According to this head, probing information about other sects wouldn’t cause much trouble.

First, because most sects were not completely insulated – news was everywhere, and they didn’t care much by nature; secondly, even if there were issues, the capabilities of the Curtain-door Organization could suppress them.

In the Martial World, intelligence was also a form of currency, as well as life.

Many sects would even sell some scandals to the Curtain-door Organization, like which Sect Leader had an affair with the neighboring coachman, or which coachman ran off with the Sect Leader’s wife.

Few people wanted to offend such an organization.

But Jade Guanyin was an exception.

Jade Guanyin had killed quite a few disciples of the Curtain-door Organization.

She directly sent the living dead to annihilate the subdivisions that were gathering intelligence on her.

She violated many people, making the number of living dead numerous.

Those former Heavenly Prides, even as living dead, would not lose their martial skills, and more importantly, they were fearless.

There is nothing more dangerous than someone who is not afraid of death.

In Jade Guanyin’s eyes, all her living dead were expendable, while to others, they were terrifying killing machines.

After being targeted several times, the Curtain-door Organization stopped dealing with her.

All in all, the Curtain-door Organization deemed it not worthwhile internally.

Even though the disciples of the Curtain-door Organization were considered expendable, when compared to Jade Guanyin’s living dead, they lacked cost-effectiveness.

That’s also a reason why little intelligence was available on Jade Guanyin.

Even when Duan Yun and Feng Ling’er wanted to purchase old intelligence, they were told it had been archived and could not be disclosed.

Until Duan Yun said, "I don’t care whether it’s archived or not, if you don’t hand it over, this Young Hero will make you experience madness today," the head no longer dared to mind about internal rules and took out the sealed archives, nor did he dare to accept the silver.

The Curtain-door Organization was in the business of intelligence and wouldn’t normally check the identities of its clients; after all, without being paid, why bother to check.

The head had suspected the identities of Duan Yun and Feng Ling’er before, but since they had always been quite amiable in doing business and didn’t exhibit the rumored madness, he began to think he was wrong, until Duan Yun’s recent speech with "this Young Hero," which made the head shudder with realization.

It was said that Old Demon Duan liked to play the role of a Young Hero; when he played the Young Hero, he was not as abnormal, and as long as you went along with it, treating him as a Young Hero, nothing too bad would happen. This was a standard survival principle in the Martial World when meeting Old Demon Duan. But if he didn’t wish to play the role anymore, then disaster was imminent.

"That was close."

Watching the receding figures of Duan Yun and Feng Ling’er, the head’s back was already drenched with cold sweat.

Being discovered for providing secret archives to outsiders would result in a heavy punishment, yet compared to offending Old Demon Duan, that punishment is not worth mentioning.

"Will I directly be killed or violated, or will I be defiled and then violated before being killed?" the person in charge analyzed.

He seriously suspected that the woman he just encountered was the one defiled by Old Demon Duan.

Is it Murong Demon?

"But Murong Demon shouldn’t be that beautiful. If it really is Murong Demon, that would be too thrilling, way too indulgent."

This chief of the screen door, who considered himself a pervert, played quite wildly in private, but still found the possibility both perverted and extravagant.

...

Duan Yun and Feng Ling’er looked at the top-secret archives given for free by the screen door with mixed feelings.

They were glad that the screen door still knew how to do business, having earned so much silver from them, and even knew to give something in return once; yet they were worried because the archives were indeed old and didn’t contain much useful information.

Or in other words, the screen door didn’t find the core information in their initial investigation of Jade Guanyin and thus halted further probing.

Nevertheless, the archives provided some references, so they weren’t completely clueless.

When the two returned to Yuzhu Villa, it was almost dark.

Shen Ying was cooking.

One must eat well no matter what they’re doing.

Duan Yun had decided to set out tomorrow to find Jade Guanyin and kill her entire family.

"This time, I must go," Feng Ling’er said suddenly with all seriousness.

"I’m also going; you have no excuse this time," Shen Ying followed with equal earnestness.

Duan Yun raised his eyebrows.

"You can’t refuse because the Murong brothers can’t go," Shen Ying added.

The Murong brothers were eating an eggplant and almost choked to bloody cough.

Or rather, they were already somewhat coughing up blood.

Duan Yun looked at them and said, "You really can’t go."

The Murong brothers were severely injured this time, with the palm force of Mingyu Palm, along with Palm Wind Shifting Flower and Death Energy Breaking Body Sword Energy damaging their internal organs to the extent that they could not circulate True Qi normally.

Looking back, they always felt that in the two-on-one fight, it wasn’t like they were joining forces against Ming Xing, but rather like Duan Yun and Ming Xing were ganging up on them.

One can only say that the unique skills of Mingyu Palace were truly magical.

Friends seemed to have turned into enemies, and enemies into lovers.

Yes, when thinking of the silhouette of Duan Yun and Ming Xing chatting under the moonlight in the fields, he felt they seemed like lovers.

Indeed, the foreshadowing was laid long ago.

Murong brothers said, "On the way, you could treat me."

Duan Yun shook his head and said, "I can only try my best to heal myself."

"You’ve done enough, just focus on healing," they replied.

Then, he turned to Shen Ying and Feng Ling’er and said, "But this is not why you should act together."

Feng Ling’er said sternly, "My mother has a grudge against Jade Guanyin, and that means I also have a grudge against her. I understand more about Jade Guanyin than any of you."

Not many people could have a fierce fight with Jade Guanyin and both sustain injuries. The Purple Dragon King was one of them.

And Feng Ling’er happened to be her daughter, deeply resentful of Jade Guanyin for injuring her mother, and she also should have heard about Jade Guanyin from the Lady.

Duan Yun had no reason to prevent a daughter from taking revenge on the person who hurt her mother.

In that fight, it was said that both sides were injured, but judging from the outcome, the Lady suffered more since she contracted a strange illness and had to leave her familiar surroundings to go to the sea.

With Feng Ling’er going, naturally, Shen Ying also wanted to go.

"Am I worse than her?"

With that single sentence, Duan Yun had nothing more to say.

When a woman says that, you better just go along with her.

After all, the most terrifying thing about women is comparison; once they start comparing, their hearts are smaller than the eye of a needle.

The day after, Duan Yun set off with two "wings".

The Yuzhu Trio embarked on a new journey, while the Murong brothers, left alone guarding the empty house, lay under the bed in tears.

It was supposed to be about saving the person he loved, his heaven, but he could not go and was left only to stay beneath the bed.

Beneath the bed, the Murong brothers felt this painful sentiment, their hair fluttering with budding green.

This pain, this helplessness, was sure to stimulate him to become stronger!
