Duan Zhengchun transmigrates to Yin Zhiping

"Who?! Who's speaking?!"

"If you've got the guts, come out here! Stop hiding in the shadows and playing tricks!"

A chorus of curses erupted from the crowd as they looked around, trying to pinpoint the source of the voice.

The middle-aged man with a pointed mouth and monkey-like face was the most arrogant, brandishing his ghost-head knife with a face full of defiance.

"Show yourself if you dare! Don't be a coward..."

Before the words had even finished, a figure appeared in everyone's sight like lightning, sweeping over everyone's heads and landing between the two opposing sides!

"what!"

Immediately afterwards, a terrified scream rang out, and the middle-aged man with a pointed mouth and monkey-like face fell to his knees with a thud, clutching his right arm in pain!

His right hand, which was holding the knife, had been severed from his wrist, and his palm had long since fallen among the mud and flower petals!

Blood was everywhere!

Hearing the screams, the group of martial arts practitioners realized that the middle-aged man was seriously injured!

But they didn't even see how Duan Zhengchun made his move!

"Talking too much can kill you!"

Duan Zhengchun slowly turned around, looking down at the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground, and squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth.

"Who are you?! Why are you protecting the Ancient Tomb Sect?!"

"We're all here to propose marriage, what right do you have to hurt me?!"

The middle-aged man glared at Duan Zhengchun, his lips trembling as he loudly questioned him, blood gushing from between his left fingers, which were gripping the broken part of his right arm.

"Look at how you look! Even Granny Sun might not be interested in you. You think you're good enough for her?!"

Duan Zhengchun sneered and said disdainfully.

"What did you say, little brat?!"

Granny Sun, who was standing behind Duan Zhengchun, had finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him appear. However, she immediately became unhappy when she heard him teasing her like that.

"Just kidding, Grandma Sun, don't be angry."

Duan Zhengchun turned around, grinned at Granny Sun, and said casually.

"Do you even know who I am? How dare you try to hurt me! Believe me or not, I'll make sure you don't leave here alive!"

The middle-aged man kneeling on the ground was still unwilling to accept it and angrily questioned the situation.

"We all came here to fight Xiaolongnu, why did you turn around and injure our own people?!"

"That's right! If you really have the strength, then the martial arts manuals and gold and silver treasures are all yours, and Little Dragon Girl is all ours!"

Immediately, some people in the crowd echoed this sentiment, expressing their dissatisfaction with Duan Zhengchun's sudden intervention.

"Too much nonsense! You're asking for it!"

Duan Zhengchun said coldly, and suddenly rushed out again like lightning. With a sword cry, the broken sword in his hand was drawn again!

In the blink of an eye, Duan Zhengchun had already flashed past the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground, then quickly rushed into the crowd and returned to the position he had just been standing in!

In every movement and stillness, his movements were swift, like a ghost!

When everyone came to their senses, they found that the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground was lying motionless with his head tilted to the side, his throat having been cut off by the sword without anyone noticing!

"what...!"

"Abba...Abba..."

Immediately afterwards, the people who had been shouting the loudest suddenly covered their blood-stained mouths and let out painful screams and strange cries.

Everything happened so fast that they didn't realize until then that Duan Zhengchun had already cut off their tongues in the blink of an eye!

Seeing this, everyone turned pale and looked at the expressionless Duan Zhengchun in horror, as if they had seen a ghost!

"Look! His sword!"

Immediately afterwards, a scream filled with fear suddenly erupted from the crowd!

"Broken sword!"

"It's him?!"

"It really is him?!"

"He's the one who's been making waves in the Western Regions martial arts world lately, all by himself and his sword!"

"What?! He's the same Duan Feng who wreaked havoc in the Vajra Sect's lair and hunted down the Blood Demon Holy Cult?!"

Immediately afterwards, gasps of alarm rippled through the crowd, and everyone began to back away, their faces filled with terror.

Duan Zhengchun raised an eyebrow and glanced coldly at the terrified crowd. He hadn't expected that what he had done in the Western Regions would spread throughout the martial arts world so quickly.

I thought we might be going to go on a killing spree today, but now it seems there's no need for that at all.

"Little Dragon Girl is my woman! From now on, anyone who dares to harass me here will suffer the same fate!"

Duan Zhengchun pointed his broken sword at the middle-aged man with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks, and said coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd scattered instantly, and everyone fled without looking back.

The once noisy entrance to the ancient tomb was suddenly deserted, leaving only Duan Zhengchun, Granny Sun, the corpse on the ground, and a few fallen tongues.

Duan Zhengchun flicked his wrist, shaking off the bloodstains on the sword's edge. He then sheathed the broken sword, slowly turned to look at Granny Sun, and instantly put on a smiling face, all his killing intent gone.

Granny Sun stared blankly at Duan Zhengchun, motionless, seemingly not expecting that Duan Zhengchun's reputation in the martial arts world was so great, that he had scared away hundreds of martial arts practitioners with just a broken sword.

"Grandma Sun?"

Duan Zhengchun waved to the stunned Granny Sun and called out softly.

Granny Sun then came to her senses, coughed, looked Duan Zhengchun up and down, and murmured, "I didn't expect those people to be so afraid of you..."

Are you that famous in the martial arts world?

Duan Zhengchun smiled and waved his hand, saying, "They're all just empty names, nothing more. I've already chased them all away. Can I go in and see Long'er?"

Granny Sun hesitated for a moment, and was about to turn around and go inside to report when she looked up and saw that Little Dragon Girl had slowly walked out.

“Long’er, I have kept my promise. Those people have been driven away by me and will never dare to come back.”

Upon seeing Xiaolongnu, Duan Zhengchun immediately revealed a gentle smile, slowly approached her, and whispered something.

"Who's your woman?!"

Little Dragon Girl glanced at the corpse not far away, questioned it with a stern face, and then winked at Granny Sun.

Granny Sun bowed respectfully, walked away, and silently began to deal with the corpse and the few tongues on the ground.

"You."

Duan Zhengchun smiled and said something, then followed Xiaolongnu to the stone table.

"Shameless!"

With a blank expression, Xiaolongnu slowly sat down on the stone bench and silently poured two cups of tea.

Although he was scolding her, his face did not show any anger.

Duan Zhengchun sat down with a smile, picked up one of the cups of tea, took a sip, and stared intently at Xiaolongnu.

Why did your senior sister do that?

After a moment's hesitation, Duan Zhengchun asked the question that had been on his mind.

Xiaolongnu sighed softly and said slowly, "Perhaps it was because of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra. Back then, she had a falling out with her master over a man, and almost went crazy, not caring about anything. That's why her master expelled her from the sect."

"So she didn't receive all of her master's true teachings, and the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra is the most superior and unique internal energy cultivation method of the Ancient Tomb Sect. Perhaps she has always been resentful about it."

“Master is right. All men in the world are fickle. If it weren’t for that man, she wouldn’t be like this now.”

In the end, Xiaolongnu glanced at Duan Zhengchun, seemingly unintentionally, a strange glint in her eyes.

Duan Zhengchun shook his head, looked firmly at Xiaolongnu, and said seriously, "I am not that kind of person! Love will always be the most important thing to me!"

Xiaolongnu frowned and pressed, "If one day you were presented with a choice between other things and feelings, what would you choose?"

"That matter might be very important, important to yourself, to your sect, or even to the entire martial arts world. How can you still be so certain about it?!"

After saying this, Xiaolongnu stared intently at Duan Zhengchun, seemingly eagerly awaiting his answer.

"I won't choose."

Duan Zhengchun shook his head without hesitation.

"what?"

Little Dragon Girl frowned in confusion.

"all I want!"

"I don't know what others choose, and I don't care, but if it were me, I would want them all! No one can force me to choose! No one can!"

Duan Zhengchun smiled and gave his answer with a firm expression.

Upon hearing this answer, Xiaolongnu paused for a moment, then unconsciously smiled and looked away.

She hadn't expected Duan Zhengchun to give such an unusual answer, but it certainly seemed like something he would do.

Seeing that fleeting smile, Duan Zhengchun was startled. He gazed at Xiaolongnu's exquisite face with fascination and said sincerely, "You look so beautiful when you smile. You should smile more often in the future."

Upon hearing this, Xiaolongnu's face flushed instantly. She glared at Duan Zhengchun, got up, and fled, quickly heading towards the ancient tomb.

Upon seeing this, Duan Zhengchun couldn't help but let out a silly laugh.

He knew she had fallen for him...
