Chapter 614 Search
When she first saw Xue Wanyun, she actually didn't recognize him.
But when she heard Duan Qing introduce Xue Wanyun's name, she felt that Xue Wanyun was very similar to Mr. Xue back then, and boldly combined the two.
Unexpectedly, she really didn't recognize him wrong!
"Island Master, don't be polite. I don't have any mission at the moment. You and I have the same cultivation level, so we can just be friends as equals!" Xue Wanyun said warmly to Lu Yuan.
While speaking, she didn't forget to glance at Duan Qing proudly.
This stinky fool called this person Master's Wife. This girl is friends with him as an equal, which means that this stinky fool is a generation older than him, hehe!
Xue Wanyun was secretly happy in her heart.
How could Duan Qing not know what Xue Wanyun was thinking.
But under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he couldn't say anything, so he could only smile bitterly in his heart.
"Then... I will dare to call you Fellow Daoist Xue!" Lu Yuan said nervously.
Although she looked very nervous on the surface, she was actually very surprised in her heart.
Being able to make friends with a big shot like Xue Wanyun is like a pie in the sky.
Then, she thought of Duan Qing calling Xue Wanyun "senior sister".
Doesn't that mean Duan Qing is also a Shinto disciple!
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan was shocked!
Shinto Sect is the largest sect in the Central Plains!
Compared with it, her Qianlin Sect is just a drop in the ocean!
In order to repay Duan Qing for saving Lu Ying, she gave Duan Qing a Qianlin Order and left a letter to beg her master, the elder Ji of Qianlin Sect, to accept Duan Qing into the Qianlin Sect.
Later, when her master went to Xiaonanjie to save Chang Yan, he told her that Duan Qing was unwilling to join Qianlin Sect.
At that time, she was still very angry and thought that Duan Qing was ungrateful.
But now that she knew that Duan Qing had joined the Shinto Sect, she realized that her vision was too small!
After the shock, Lu Yuan hurriedly said to Xue Wanyun and Duan Qing: "Fellow Daoist Xue and Fellow Daoist Duan... have come from afar, why don't you stay in my Third Heaven for a while, so that we can also fulfill our hospitality as hosts!"
Knowing that Duan Qing had joined the Shinto Sect and his cultivation was comparable to hers, she dared not treat Duan Qing as a junior.
The change in Lu Yuan's attitude made Chang Yan, Lu Ying and others look strange.
"Thank you for your kindness, Island Master. We have important things to do, so I'm afraid we can't stay for long." Xue Wanyun politely declined Lu Yuan's invitation.
Lu Yuan couldn't help but look regretful when she heard this.
"Master's wife, where is Sheng'er now?" Duan Qing couldn't help asking.
When she heard Sheng'er's name, Lu Yuan's expression froze for a moment, as if she wanted to say something but stopped.
Seeing Lu Yuan's reaction, Duan Qing felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart.
"What happened to Sheng'er?" Duan Qing asked, looking a little anxious.
"Sheng'er... went to the Middle Earth!" Lu Yuan was silent for a moment, then spoke.
Duan Qing breathed a sigh of relief, then hurriedly asked. "When did it happen?"
"A few months ago, the girl had just broken through to the late stage of the Transcendent Realm, and she left without saying goodbye, leaving a letter saying that she was going to the Middle Earth to find you, Daoist Fellow Duan!" Lu Yuan said with some self-blame.
A few months!
Duan Qing was shocked!
Duan Qing knew how dangerous it was to venture into the Middle Earth alone.
Even if you acted low-key, trouble would inevitably come to you.
Sheng'er, with her cultivation in the late stage of the Transcendent Realm, went to the Middle Earth to find him alone. It was hard to say whether she could get out of Yuezhou!
Thinking of this, Duan Qing suddenly felt like sitting on pins and needles, and had the urge to find Sheng'er immediately, and didn't want to stay here for a moment.
Afterwards, Duan Qing immediately said goodbye to Lu Yuan and others, and prepared to set off for the Middle Earth with Xue Wanyun.
Although it was not the day for the spirit boat to depart, under Lu Yuan's arrangement, the Three Heavens still sent a spirit boat to take the two to the Middle Earth.
Before leaving, Duan Qing specifically asked Song Ling'er where the grave of the second senior brother was, and under the leadership of Song Ling'er, he went to pay homage to the second senior brother.
In order to prevent the second senior brother from becoming a barbarian, he burned the second senior brother's bones.
But Song Ling'er still set up a tomb for the second senior brother in the Three Heavens.
About an hour or two later, Duan Qing finally set foot on the land of the Middle Earth again.
"Senior Sister Xue, I'm really sorry, the trip to Soul State may be delayed for some time." Duan Qing apologized to Xue Wanyun.
The two had agreed before that after returning to the Middle Earth, they would first go to the Soul State Wuxiang Sect to return Xu Yunzi's corpse and the storage bracelet, so as to remove the Wuxiang seal on the two.
Although the Wu Xiang Yin has no effect on people and has not taken effect for more than a year, it is like a sharp sword hanging over your head if it is not removed.
But now that he knows that Sheng'er has come to the Middle Earth alone, he just wants to find Sheng'er first, and he has no intention of going to the Soul State.
"It's okay, the Wu Xiang Yin will not take effect in a short time, let's find Sheng'er first!" Xue Wanyun did not mean to blame Duan Qing, but comforted her.
When the two were together, Duan Qing had mentioned Sheng'er to her many times, and she knew very well how important Sheng'er was in Duan Qing's heart.
Duan Qing cast a thankful look at Xue Wanyun, then identified the direction and flew north.
The closest city to the Sea in the Bottle in Yuezhou is Shangyue City. Sheng'er will most likely pass through Shangyue City when she comes to the Middle Earth, and maybe she can find Sheng'er's trace in Shangyue City.
Not long after, the two arrived in Shangyue City.
The last time Duan Qing came to Shangyue City, he came with Qiao Chuan and Qiao Shan, grandfather and grandson, to see the Qianlin Sect's disciple-taking ceremony.
As a result, the fool was captured by Zhang Muzhi in the middle of the night, and he failed to fulfill his wish.
After that, he started a journey of escape.
It has been more than two years since the incident, but now when I think about it, it seems like it happened yesterday.
As soon as they arrived at Shangyue City, Duan Qing and Xue Wanyun asked almost everyone they met, and inquired about Sheng'er's whereabouts.
Especially the various inns in the city, which were the focus of their inquiry.
However, what disappointed Duan Qing was that after a lot of work, the two of them almost asked all the inns in the city, but they couldn't find out any news about Sheng'er.
Could it be that Sheng'er had never been to Shangyue City?
It shouldn't be likely!
Since Sheng'er came to the Middle Earth to find him, he must have asked someone about his whereabouts.
Shangyue City is closest to the Sea in the Bottle. Logically, if Sheng'er wants to inquire about the news, he should come to Shangyue City.
As long as Sheng'er has contact with people, he will definitely leave clues.
Thinking of this, Duan Qing did not give up and continued to find people in the city to ask.
This search took two days.
The two stayed in Shangyue City for two days, constantly looking for people to inquire about the news.
But still failed to get any useful information.
In desperation, Duan Qing had to give up the search in Shangyue City and go to Liuyue City, the largest city in Yuezhou, to get information.
At the beginning, he had a grudge with the Wu family because of a series of things in Liuyue City, and later killed Wu Lan with the gourd sword.
To be honest, he didn't want to go to Liuyue City.
But in order to find Sheng'er, he couldn't care so much now.
Besides, he is now a dignified member of the Shinto Sect, and his master is Mu Yu, one of the three law enforcement elders of the Shinto Sect. It is not that easy for the Wu family to control him again.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the two left Shangyue City, they were stopped by a group of people.
