Chapter 1642: Meet
Duan Mubai looked at him. He paused for a moment and said: “Old friend.”
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper’s expression changed slightly and he chuckled: “Our owner has gone out and won’t be back tonight. Would you like to come back tomorrow instead?”
Duan Mubai knew that Feng Jiu and the rest hadn’t left yet when he heard this. Therefore, he nodded his head: “That’s alright, I will come back tomorrow!” As he turned to leave, the shopkeeper said to him.
“Please wait a moment.” The shopkeeper followed him out and came to stand in front of Duan Mubai. He asied: “May I ask what Sir’s name is? When our Chief returns tomorrow I can report to him.”
“My surname is Duan.” Saying that, he left.
Early the next morning, Du Fan had planned to go to the Drugstore to take a look. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a man dressed in white standing there. When he saw the familiar Pill Sun Sect robes, Du Fan’s gaze swept down and his eyes fell on the tablet on his waist.
“You are?”
“Duan Mubai.” He said his name and looked at the person in front of him: “I am Shangguan Wanrong’s Eldest Senior Brother. Is Feng Jiu inside too?”
When he heard that, Du Fan nodded his head and turned his body sideways to let him inside: “Please come in.” He closed the door and said: “Chen Dao and Luo Heng have mentioned you before, so I know who you are. By the way, my name is Du Fan.”
“I know.” Duan Mubai responded. His eyes fell on the folding fan in his hand.
Du Fan followed his gaze to the folding fan in his hand and he smiled. He led him into the inner hall and said: “My Master is not awake yet. As for Madam, she had a bit too much wine to drink last night so I don’t think she will be up early. Tell you what! Why don’t you go to the main hall to sit down and I will send someone to inform My Master of your arrival and see if she is awake yet.”
“Let her sleep! I can wait here till they both wake up.” Saying that, Duan Mubai walked into the hall and sat down: “I came after receiving news from Chen Dao and the others, it’s nothing urgent.”
Du Fan poured him a cup of tea and said: “You can sit here to wait. Feel free to take a stroll around the mansion. I have to go to the Drugstore to take a look so I will take my leave first.”
“Alright.” Duan Mubai replied and took a sip of his tea.
After he stepped out, he found Leng Hua and told him to go to the main hall to greet their guest, and then he left.
When he learnt that Madam’s Eldest Senior Brother had arrived, Leng Hua went to the kitchen and brought some snacks and a pot of tea to the main hall. However, when he got to the main hall, he found that there was no one there.
“Didn’t he say that he was waiting in the main hall?” He was a little surprised. He put down the tray he was carrying and felt the teacup on the table. When he felt that it was still warm, he knew that he couldn’t have gone far, so he went out to look for him.
On the other side, after Duan Mubai had walked out of the courtyard, he walked around and ended up at the martial arts training ground. When he heard the faint sounds of someone dueling, he walked towards the sound.
He stopped not far from the martial arts training field and watched the two figures sparring. Though they were only sparring, it was not difficult to see the outstanding skills of the two of them. Because of their rapid speed in sparring, he was unable to see their faces clearly. However, based on the aura and physical strength of the two of them, he could tell that they were extremely good.
Although they were both only Mystical Power Cultivators, not Immortal Cultivators, their combative skills were amazing. In fact, their combative skills were even more superior than his.
