The Hunted Hunter
Chapters 18. A Request
A teenage boy was walking leisurely to head towards the residence of one of the low-level elders of the Yellow Bamboo sect.
The teenager was Ma Guang and was going to pay a visit to elder Duan's residence.
Upon arrival there, in addition to a girl, she was immediately greeted warmly by the people who were in the residence.
" What an important matter is there, so as to make a genius disciple come at our place."
Said the girl in a tone of voice that seemed to insinuate teenage boys who came to his house.
" Eeehhhmmm.I'm sorry this ungrateful me, because only now can I come to visit here."
The man responded to a welcome from a girl in front of him.
" Oh, that's it...!!!
" Surely you're very busy after becoming the main student, so you don't have time to visit here."
Continue the girl in a taut tone towards Ma Guang.
Hearing that, Ma Guang became misbehaved and could only smile shyly while scratching his non-itchy head.
" Jiang....!!! Don't take heart with the words that Meng'er says.
Elder Duan's words propped up his daughter's words.
" Meng...!!! Is it not allowed to enter first to our guests...???." Elder Duan teased his daughter.
Elder Duan looked at Ma Guang and immediately invited him inside his house.
" Guang...!!! Let's go in first and continue our conversation inside." Said elder Duan.
Ma Guang immediately followed elder Duan from behind who was followed by the other three.
After they were already in the living room, elder Duan invited Ma Guang to sit down.
For elder Duan's wife and daughter, the two of them directly walked towards the kitchen of his residence.
" How are you doing now..!!??is there any progress in your training...???."
Said elder Duan who asked Ma Guang and simultaneously broke the silence back then.
" My current situation is very good, and My ability has also increased every day."
Ma Guang replied with a friendly smile.
" Are you going to take part in the upcoming competition that will be held in the Imperial capital...!!???."
Asked elder Duan to Ma Guang with a serious face.
" Yes the elder, I will enter that competition."
He answered briefly with a smiling face.
" Oh, that's it....!!! Jun'er was also hoping to participate in the competition, but he should also be able to qualify first from the competition that the sect would conduct for another month."
Elder Duan continued while looking at his son who was also sitting with the two of them.
" Is there anything I can do to help Duan Jun...???."
Said Ma Guang with a face that was hopeful in order to help Duan Jun.
" If you have free time, may You accompany him to practice sparring and sharing insights to increase his understanding...???."
Said elder Duan again hoping that Ma Guang could help Duan Jun in developing the martial technique that Duan Jun had learned.
As a young swordsman who was only 18 years old, Duan Jun himself was currently only able to reach the 6th level of the early swordsman stage.
It was also filled with great difficulty.
" Alright, I will definitely accompany big brother Jun to practice later."
Ma Guang said in response to what the request from elder Duan was.
After a long story, Duan Meng finally came to bring a tray in hand with drinks and snacks on it.
" Please drink while it's still warm."
Said Duan Meng when he had put a teapot, cup and snack on the table in front of the three of them and also immediately sat down to join.
After hearing what Duan Meng said and presented, the three of them seemed to have been in command simultaneously holding a cup in front of them and immediately took a sip.
" What is your purpose in coming here...???."
Ma Guang was immediately choked by the tea he drank.
It was because the words he had just heard were intended for him.
Seeing that, the three of them instantly fell silent and felt awkward about what Ma Guang was going through.
" Uhuk..uhuk...ehem."
Said Ma Guang who also did not know what else to say other than the words he said.
" He he he he he. it's okay."
" Guang.er I should apologize to You, for the words spoken by My daughter, so as to make Yourself that way."
Elder Duan said in response to what Ma Guang said.
" No elders...Duan Meng was innocent, it was you who was too careless."
Ma Guang said refuting what elder Duan said.
" It is so, is it wrong if I want to ask the purpose of Your coming...!!!???."
" It's not wrong, is it....???."
Said Duan Meng in a jutek tone while staring at Ma Guang.
" So, what exactly was your purpose in coming here."
Said elder Duan to melt the already increasingly awkward-looking atmosphere.
And also indeed elder Duan wanted to also know what purpose Ma Guang had come to his residence.
" There's actually something I'd like to talk to Duan Meng about, but I don't want to talk about anymore about what I want to talk about."
Ma Guang replied to a question from elder Duan and also answered a question from Duan Meng.
Ma Guang had already thought, surely the girl would not give up her request. What else is with the situation.
Hearing what Ma Guang said, Duan Meng's countenance instantly changed drastically.
From the face that was originally so jutek, it has now turned sad.
He felt disappointed by the attitude he had shown Ma Guang from the start, he did not expect that the purpose of the arrival from Ma Guang was to meet him.
Not too long later, Ma Guang immediately appealed to all of them while saluting and after that directly walked out to leave the residence.
Seeing Ma Guang walking away from his residence, Duan Meng seemed to be pushed by someone to chase after Ma Guang.
The girl ran over and directly held and held Ma Guang's hand while apologizing.
Seeing what she was doing and hearing the words the girl said.
Ma Guang's face instantly flushed in response to that while scratching his non-itchy head.
" Miss Meng is innocent, so why apologize to me."
Ma Guang.
" No, I'm guilty, I shouldn't have acted that way."
Said Duan Meng refuting the words - said Ma Guang.
" Alright - alright...now what do you want...!!!???."
Said Ma Guang who gave a word - Duan Meng said to make the girl feel calm and happy.
" Please tell me what you're going to talk to me about."
Said Duan Meng expectantly.
Hearing what Duan Meng said, he, finally Ma Guang asked Elder Duan for permission first and after that took Duan Meng to a quiet place and started to say his intention to meet and talk to the girl.
Duan Meng also heard seriously what Ma Guang said.
The girl did not expect that after recounting her flaws, Ma Guang asked Duan Meng to teach her to read.
But finally Duan Meng immediately gave a request from Ma Guang, and it would be done by them at Ma Guang's residence so that no one else would know.
