Duan Yun found the shop he needed after all.
With so many people flooding into Jade Stone Town these days, those renting out properties treat their shops like treasures, saying every inch is worth its weight in gold.
If not for the Mo Sect stepping in to control things after seeing how popular it had become, many residents would probably have had to turn their homes into shops.
Even though Duan Yun had collected a hefty amount of rent from Feng Ling'er's mother in the past, renting this shop still stung.
Simply because it was expensive.
However, he was only renting it for two months. After all, he predicted that once the Azure Dragon commotion died down, the town would eventually return to its normal level of activity.
Even with the lasting popularity brought by an old devil like him, it couldn't possibly be two or three times more expensive than the busiest street shops in Small Spring Town, right?
That was just unreasonable.
He remembered how desolate the town was when he first arrived; now, it was almost too much to afford.
The shop Duan Yun rented was at the end of a street on the west side of town, with a large sycamore tree in front of the entrance.
The location wasn't great, but with the current foot traffic in Jade Stone Town, it couldn't be considered remote either.
Being able to rent such a place for a short period at this time was already considered lucky.
The key was the cellar. The shop had a ready-made cellar in the backyard, which could be used after some widening.
If the owner hadn't been so greedy and always charged high rent, this shop wouldn't have been available now.
Duan Yun was busy all day, barely getting any sleep, but he managed to get the clinic up and running.
"Benevolence Clinic."
The Murong brothers came to observe Duan Yun's clinic.
To be honest, seeing a young hero and old devil who they spent their days with suddenly open a clinic gave them a rather magical feeling.
"Doctor Xu Xian, specializing in gynecology, internal and external injuries, skilled in beauty treatments, mole removal, scar removal, and obstetrics..."
The Murong brothers read the temporary wooden sign with large characters, and couldn't help but complain, "You can even deliver babies?"
Duan Yun said confidently, "Of course, it's a family tradition."
Plus, with the electric finger enhancement these days, his skills had naturally improved even further.
Feng Ling'er wondered, "Why call yourself Xu Xian?"
Shen Ying mocked, "If he wrote 'Doctor Duan Yun,' who would dare to come in?"
Hearing this, the three could automatically conjure up a scene in their minds.
A heavily injured Jianghu person found the clinic, overjoyed, thinking they were saved, but suddenly saw the sign that read "Doctor Duan Yun," and their expression would drastically change, shouting, "Duan, Old Devil Duan? Run!"
There was no helping it. Ever since Duan Yun debuted, he had been associated with doctors. Outsiders often said that besides liking to play the young hero, Duan Old Devil also liked to play the doctor, and he even looked like one, making it easy to mislead people.
Master Lu of Maple Forest Town had turned into a woman after trusting his folk remedy.
Only Duan Yun and his friends knew that he was actually a gynecologist by profession.
It was just that the world misunderstood him too deeply.
Duan Yun's decision to go by the name "Xu Xian" this time could only be described as knowing himself well.
The Murong brothers couldn't help but try to please their sister, saying, "You don't know, he's used so many aliases over the years, like Murong Fu, Broken Wave. Especially Murong Fu, he was exposed that same day, hahahaha."
Speaking of this, Duan Yun couldn't help but feel a fire in his heart.
Just then, voices came from outside.
"Oh, a new clinic has opened here."
"Let's go, let's go! What's there to see at a clinic? The building for the female sword immortal of the Qiong Ling Sect is already up."
"What! That female sword immortal of the Qiong Ling Sect who was ruined by Old Devil Duan and forced into prostitution?"
"Of course, otherwise, where would such a good thing come from?"
"That Old Devil Duan is truly inhuman. It's said that the three female sword immortals of the Qiong Ling Sect have always been pure and clean, but Duan Old Devil made them fall into prostitution and successively receive guests. The immortals are suffering, I have to go and comfort them properly."
"Then we brothers should quickly get in line, lest we miss out."
"Really?"
"Hurry!"
Hearing this, the Murong brothers, who were usually the laziest, were the first to run out, appearing very eager.
Shen Ying and Feng Ling'er simultaneously revealed expressions of disdain.
Shen Ying couldn't help but complain, "He's not even this eager when it comes to eating."
The Murong brothers' image in the two women's hearts plummeted once again.
Yes, it had already fallen to the bottom, but unexpectedly, there was still room to fall.
Especially Feng Ling'er, thinking about how she once had feelings for the other party, and that this person was her half-brother, she felt a chill.
What a terrible relative, embarrassing me in front of Little Duan Yun!
At this moment, Shen Ying and Feng Ling'er helped Duan Yun organize the medicinal herbs.
Looking at the two women busying themselves, Duan Yun suddenly felt a sense of warmth.
Because the two women had the air of virtuous wives.
He couldn't help but think of that outrageous dream he had before.
The dream where he married four women in a row.
That dream should be related to the Dharma idol he had refined, but it was also a projection of his inner self.
Scientifically speaking, if he hadn't thought about it subconsciously, the dream wouldn't have occurred.
Then Duan Yun suddenly discovered a very outrageous fact.
Damn it, why do these four feel like terrible women?
Why are there so many beautiful terrible women in this world?
Duan Yun quickly swept away these outrageous thoughts and continued to organize the medicinal herbs.
These medicinal herbs were all newly bought from Hope Spring City, mostly for internal conditioning.
If the Azure Dragon appeared here and caused a major disturbance, it would mainly be external injuries, and he basically didn't need medicine to treat external injuries.
Part of the reason these medicinal herbs existed was to make it look more like a clinic.
Just like how brothels often had a strong scent of rouge.
When you smell the scent of rouge, you want to find a girl to have fun, and when you smell the scent of herbs and see such a responsible and patient doctor like him, the patient's mood will also improve a lot.
Before long, the Murong brothers returned, and Duan Yun couldn't help but ask, "Are you done so quickly?"
The Murong brothers said with heartache, "What's done? It's impossible to squeeze in."
"The Jianghu people in the town aren't pretending anymore, they're all showing off their weapons."
At this moment, the Murong brothers revealed a deeply sad expression, saying, "When I was little, the beautiful older sisters and beautiful aunts of the Qiong Ling Sect came to find my dad and brought me candy. I really liked them. I originally just wanted to see if there were any acquaintances and understand their difficulties to see if I could help them out of chivalry, but who would have thought there would be so many people."
"I remember the Qiong Ling Sect used to lack money, but now that they've practiced their cultivation techniques, they don't lack money anymore," the Murong brothers analyzed.
Duan Yun couldn't help but complain, "So only the world where I'm hurt has been achieved, right?"
Seeing Duan Yun's unfriendly expression, the Murong brothers quickly said, "You wouldn't be thinking of retaliating against them, would you?"
"Don't, they have no choice. The Jianghu is too cruel, if they don't practice their skills, they'll be killed and their sect will be destroyed, and they just want to maintain some dignity using your name.
No matter what, the Qiong Ling Sect is a large sect with a long history. As a young hero, this is also a meritorious deed."
Duan Yun was speechless at this statement.
Or rather, speechless at this Jianghu.
He spread his hands and said, "Why are you so agitated? Did I say I was going to do anything?"
Yes, compared to the many black pots, this one was really not worth mentioning.
At this moment, Duan Yun suddenly analyzed, "You're so concerned about the female sword immortals of the Qiong Ling Sect? It seems you've inherited your uncle's affection. By the way, you don't have a sister in the Qiong Ling Sword Sect, do you?"
The Murong brothers suddenly became nervous, their faces turning green, saying, "No way. The Qiong Ling Sect hadn't done anything yet when my mom caught him."
Duan Yun said with a serious face, "With Uncle Murong's abilities, is there anyone in this world he can't steal?"
Shen Ying analyzed, "I heard that only three female sword immortals from the Qiong Ling Sect came out to receive guests. I heard you say before that this strange 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' only makes it impossible to suppress desire when practiced to a high level."
Duan Yun said seriously, "If your half-sister isn't particularly talented, she shouldn't be doing this yet."
At this moment, he couldn't help but lower his voice and say, "Brother, you don't want to see your sister receiving guests, do you?"
The Murong brothers said almost instinctively, "No, no!"
Immediately, he said in horror, "But, but I know that once the 'Jade Maiden Heart Sutra' is practiced, it becomes addictive and there's no turning back."
Suddenly, electric light flickered at Duan Yun's fingertips.
The flickering arcs of electricity reflected on his face, making it look uncertain.
"What's no turning back? That's because it hasn't been thoroughly cured by my Little Duan, uh, by Doctor Xu Xian. In Doctor Xu's hands, even the most serious addiction can't last long!"
As he spoke, the electric arcs at his fingertips surged, forming a rotating tree branch shape, and the hair of those standing close to him fluttered.
The Murong brothers quickly said, "I got it, quickly put away your supernatural powers."
This was originally a joke that Duan Yun said casually, but the more the Murong brothers thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Feng Ling'er also had similar emotions, because as his illegitimate daughter, she knew what kind of person that old Murong was.
"You and the old man must resolve this matter. If this person really exists, then she's probably our sister," Feng Ling'er said sullenly.
Duan Yun didn't speak this time, but his silence spoke volumes.
"Murong brothers, you don't want your sister receiving guests outside, do you?" This sentence was really too deeply rooted in their hearts.
The Murong brothers said, "Then what should I do?"
Shen Ying analyzed, "You should wander around the Qiong Ling Sword Sect more. With your image, there will also be blind women who take a fancy to you. That's probably your half-sister."
Feng Ling'er, who had once been "blind," nodded and said, "I think it's reliable."
"Then when should I go?"
Thinking that his sister might be in a fiery pit, the Murong brothers, who believed in "sisters are the best!", couldn't sit still.
Shen Ying analyzed, "The Qiong Ling Sword Sect doesn't recruit male disciples. With your current temperament, if you disguise yourself, it's more than enough to be a servant."
"Me, the most handsome man in the Murong family for three generations, a servant?" The Murong brothers questioned.
Immediately, seeing the look in Duan Yun's eyes, he immediately returned to normal and said, "Then what kind of servant do you think I'm suitable to be?"
"The one who carries night soil."
"The cook."
"The gatekeeper."
Three people, three answers.
"Women also poop, and women dislike carrying night soil even more. If you pretend to carry night soil, you can quickly blend in. During the process of carrying night soil for the various female disciples of the Qiong Ling Sect, if your sister is also among them, she should quickly take a fancy to you carrying night soil.
Even the one who carries night soil takes a fancy to you, even if your dad doesn't admit it, she's still your sister."
Shen Ying explained.
Feng Ling'er argued reasonably, "Then women still have to eat."
At this moment, the Murong brothers said, "I can carry night soil, but I probably can't cook."
Feng Ling'er took a breath of cold air and said, "You can say you can't cook so confidently, what a waste."
At this moment, the Murong brothers looked at Duan Yun and said, "I want to hear the gatekeeper's opinion."
Duan Yun said, "The gatekeeper can lie down when he's free. Besides, the gatekeeper can see the female disciples going in and out every day. With your temperament, if a woman can blindly take a fancy to you as a gatekeeper, then she must be your sister."
The Murong brothers immediately perked up and said, "I want to be a gatekeeper!"
"That's right, it's not easy to be a disciple of the Qiong Ling Sect, but as long as you're willing to spend some money and pull some strings, it's definitely no problem to be a gatekeeper."
"Then when is it appropriate for me to go?"
Thinking that his sister was in dire straits, the Murong brothers couldn't sit still.
Shen Ying analyzed, "I think you can wait until after the Azure Dragon matter. The Qiong Ling Sect has actually come, so your sister might also be among them. If you're lucky, you might meet her then."
"If you meet her, quickly grab her and bring her here, so that my younger brother and sister can be completely cured!" Doctor Xu Xian said seriously.
Duan Yun's clinic was opened after much difficulty, and this was definitely something worth celebrating.
Although the small courtyard behind the pharmacy was very small and Da Bai couldn't even practice his boxing, it didn't affect the four people from Jade Pearl Villa eating, drinking, and celebrating.
People always have to eat.
The four of them could always find a reason to eat well.
Today, they were naturally eating Old Chen's roast pork and roast duck.
Since Jade Stone Town became lively, Old Chen's back was tired, but his smile bloomed even more.
No one would dislike having too much money.
Because the "Benevolence Clinic" was relatively quiet at the end of the street, they could still hear the voices of Jianghu people, both loud and small.
"I wish Duan, cough, I wish Doctor Xu Xian a successful opening and lasting fame," the Murong brothers were the first to raise their wine glasses and congratulate Duan Yun.
"I wish you a great display of your skills this time and a good reputation," Shen Ying blessed.
"Then I wish Doctor Xu Xian you are a benevolent doctor and become a generation of divine doctors, so that people can become beautiful," Feng Ling'er blessed.
Shen Ying disliked, "Can you not speak so strangely when you talk to him?"
Feng Ling'er said with a aggrieved face, "Sister Ying, where is my speech strange?"
Her voice was already a bit coquettish when she spoke to Duan Yun, and now with an aggrieved expression, Shen Ying's fists hardened.
Just then, someone exclaimed, "What is that!"
"Hmm, Dharma idol?"
In just a moment, the four of Duan Yun had flown to the roof.
At this time, many people were already standing on the eaves of Jade Stone Town.
In the center of the town, a black and shiny Vajra Dharma idol stood there. The Buddha Dharma idol had three faces, each with three eyes, and it was impossible to tell whether they were male or female. Under the moonlight, it looked both majestic and eerie.
"It's the demon monk of Dusk Temple!"
After a moment, a misty mountain phantom slowly rose, with several long swords inserted on the mountain.
Even if it was just a Dharma idol phantom, those swords gave people a bone-chilling chill.
"It's the Yellow Mountain Sword Sect!"
Immediately afterward, another red silk phantom rose from a newly built wooden building, spinning continuously.
Within the swirling red silk, a female figure was faintly visible.
"It's the Sword Fairy of the Qiong Ling Sect!" the Murong brothers exclaimed with fervent eyes.
Suddenly, a red pagoda emerged from the mountainside.
Duan Yun recognized the place; it was the abandoned manor not far from their Jade Pearl Manor.
"The people from Red Pagoda Mountain are here too!"
"The Old Ancestor of Red Pagoda once suppressed the Guangyuan Sect with a single hand, but he hasn't shown his face for a long time. I wonder if he's here this time?"
Someone quickly began "popularizing" information on the rooftops ahead.
People in the martial world love to show off their knowledge.
"Red Pagoda Mountain?"
Looking at the crimson pagoda dharma image on the mountainside, Duan Yun felt the name was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't recall where he had heard it.
Subsequently, new dharma images appeared one after another.
Each dharma image's appearance caused a stir and much discussion.
Duan Yun finally realized that the forces that had come here were "flexing their muscles."
Meaning that if the Azure Dragon really appeared, they were already here, and those who wanted a piece of the pie had to see if they had the weight to take it.
According to Duan Yun's later understanding, martial artists could gradually condense dharma images after reaching the Tongyou Realm.
His situation, condensing a dharma image so soon after starting cultivation, was extremely rare.
This was naturally because the "Jade Sword True Understanding" was inherently miraculous, and he was a once-in-a-million cultivation genius.
Looking at the various dharma images that appeared in the town, Duan Yun felt like he was watching a chaotic dance of demons.
And more and more people were on the rooftops; many rooftops collapsed, accompanied by screams.
Each dharma image that appeared caused a lot of discussion. For example, the people on the rooftops in front kept "popularizing" how profound the sect's foundation was and how awesome the person was.
Of course, this was definitely not all of them; after all, many experts liked to be old schemers, disdaining to show off at this time.
With the appearance of more than a dozen dharma images, it represented that there were already more than a dozen forces vying for the Azure Dragon.
Later on, the onlookers became somewhat tired of watching the dharma images.
Suddenly, the crowd erupted in a sensational sound.
Because on the hillside outside the town, more than a dozen dharma images suddenly appeared together.
These dharma images all looked like a very handsome young man, with arms blooming like lotus flowers behind their backs, some like fluttering sword immortals, some evilly sinister like evil sons, some dressed tightly, and some naked, showing eight pack abs.
This also represented that this force had more than a dozen people who had cultivated dharma images.
Looking at these dharma images, Duan Yun seemed to see more than a dozen of himself.
The Murong brothers and Shen Ying had scalp tingling, while the infatuated Feng Ling'er showed a nymphomaniac expression.
"Those are Duan the Devil's dharma images!"
"The Jade Maiden Sword Sect is here too."
"The dharma images of the Jade Maiden Sword Sect don't follow the usual path. They can appear even in the Qi Sea Realm, but they look really evil. Could Duan the Devil also be here?"
"Duan the Devil usually doesn't come with the Jade Maiden Sword Sect; I've only heard of it happening once in Yuzhou."
"If Duan the Devil comes, there will be a good show to watch this time!"
Before, the ones who displayed their dharma images were mostly famous sects like the Yellow Mountain Sword Sect and Red Pagoda Mountain, with the righteous path being more prominent, so the scene was a bit one-sided.
But with the appearance of Duan the Devil's Jade Maiden Sword Sect, the scene suddenly became lively.
"Exciting, exciting!"
Storyteller Old Guo was wrapped in a red silk band, rubbing his aching buttocks while looking at the scene in front of him, his eyes bloodthirsty.
The power went out in the community today. Half of the manuscript was on the computer, and the rest was re-typed on the phone, so the update was a bit late, sorry.
