He looked back at the woman, glanced at her, and then glanced at the woman in blue who followed behind her. He frowned and didnât give her an answer.
The woman asked again. âExcuse me, are you Duan Ye, Martial Uncle Duan of the Jade Cloud Immortal Sect?â The woman was afraid that he would not answer again, so she added hurriedly. âThe two of us are Jade Cloud Immortal Sectâs disciples. My name is Lu Xiyan and she is Ruan Ru.â
âWhat is it?â He asked with his eyebrows knitted and his face cold.
Lu Xiyan was happy to hear his answer. Did he admit it? Was he really Martial Uncle Duan? Her face wreathed with smiles. âMartial Uncle Duan, itâs really you! I just came home recently. I saw Martial Uncle in the sect before. Iâm not sure, so I came forward to ask.â
She kept talking without waiting for Duan Yeâs answer. âMartial Uncle Duan, my father is the City Lord here. Since Uncle Duan has come to Inland River City, why donât you stay for a few days at my home? Let me be a host and entertain Martial Uncle Duan. â
âThanks, donât bother!â Duan Ye answered and didnât give them another glance.
âOh? I just stepped out for a while, why are there two little beauties here?â
A playful voice came with a smile. Duan Ye heard this voice and looked back with a touch of warmth in his eyes. âAre you back?â
When the two women heard the voice and looked back, they saw a beautiful woman in red coming. They were stunned. What a beautiful womanâŠEven though they were also women, her beauty took their breath away.
Feng Jiu walked past the two women and sat in front of Duan Ye. Her body that looked supple and boneless leaned on the windowsill. She looked at the two women leisurely with a faint smile on her face.
âWhere are you from, two little beauties?â
Seeing that the woman in red was Martial Uncle Duanâs acquaintance, Lu Xiyan and Ruan Ru dared not be discourteous. So, they bent their knees and saluted. âHello, Sister. I am Lu Xiyan, an inner disciple of Jade Cloud Immortal Sect.â
âI am Ruan Ru, also an inner disciple of Jade Cloud Immortal Sect.â The woman in blue also spoke and saluted Feng Jiu.
âOh? Jade Cloud Immortal Sect! Isnât that the same sect as you?â Feng Jiu propped her chin on one hand, smiling with her eyes narrowed at Duan Ye.
Duan Ye saw the playful look on her face and turned gloomy. âI donât know them.â
The two women were stunned. They wanted to say something, but they found that they couldnât say anything. Yes, he didnât know them. He was their esteemed Martial Uncle. How could he recognize a few inner disciples like them? They even saw him from a distance, otherwise, they wouldnât be able to determine whether the person in front of them was Martial Uncle Duan.
Feng Jiu glanced at him and said with disapproval. âThese girls said that they were from the same sect as you, yet you still donât recognize them? In any case, theyâre still your fellow sect members.â
âSister, Martial Uncle Duan really doesnât know us. We only saw him once from afar.â
Lu Xiyan explained and looked at Feng Jiu. âActually, itâs like this. Since I just ran into Martial Uncle Duan and my father is the City Lord of Inland River City, I thought of inviting Martial Uncle Duan to stay at my house for a few days, so that we can do our best as a host.â
âOh, is that so?â Feng Jiu was surprised.. She looked at her, took a glance at Duan Ye, and then smiled. âSomeone invited you warmly to her house, why donât you stay for a few days?â
