Chapter 347: Obtaining the Divine Fire Avatar

~11 min read 2,032 words

At this moment, in Yuwen Tuo's courtyard, Yuwen Tuo was swinging the Xuanyuan Sword with focused dedication; he did not slack off in the slightest regarding martial arts, for he had to strive to become stronger.

Everyone, go ahead and give it a try.】

Duan Fengyun was busy writing in the study, but the Spirit Sense he had left at the courtyard gate sensed someone approaching.

Duan Fengyun immediately put down the brush in his hand and walked to the door to wait for the guests to arrive.

Just as the maid was about to knock on the door, the door opened with a thud.

Behind the door, Duan Fengyun looked at the two of them with a smile and said:

"What business brings the two of you to Young Master Yuwen's place?

Young Master Yuwen is currently practicing martial arts and does not wish to be disturbed by others."

Ning Ke felt a sensation emanating from the smiling Duan Fengyun before her that filled her with disgust; this was the Sword Intent left on Duan Fengyun from his long-term contact with the Xuanyuan Sword.

Ning Ke spoke up:

"I am Ning Ke, the Commandery Princess of the Shun Prince Mansion. Who are you?

I want to see Yuwen Tuo; are you trying to block me?"

Duan Fengyun looked at the little one before him, not expecting her to be Ning Ke; it seemed the Demon Lord had already begun laying plans regarding Yuwen Tuo.

Duan Fengyun smiled:

"I am Qin Shuang, Young Master Yuwen's tutor.

Commandery Princess Ning Ke, I am truly sorry.

Young Master Yuwen never likes to be disturbed when practicing martial arts, so I must ask Commandery Princess Ning Ke to forgive me for not being able to let you in.

Please, Commandery Princess Ning Ke, do not take offense!"

Upon hearing this, the maid also stepped forward to persuade Ning Ke:

"Commandery Princess, it seems this Yuwen Tuo does not like others getting close to him; let us leave.

If you want to make friends, Commandery Princess, you can ask the Prince to take you to the palace.

There are many older brothers, sisters, and younger siblings in the palace; you will surely be able to have a good time playing with them, Commandery Princess."

But Ning Ke, who had come specifically for Yuwen Tuo today, how could she possibly let him go?

She put on an arrogant attitude and said:

"Hmph, this Commandery Princess is determined to see Yuwen Tuo today. If you, this tutor, still refuse to let me see him, I will have that old man Yang Su take your head."

Duan Fengyun shook his head; he had not expected this girl Ning Ke to be so willful and unreasonable!

The maid spoke up again at this moment:

"Mr. Qin, see if you can make an exception and let us in.

Rest assured, we will not disturb Young Master Yuwen's practice; we will only watch from the side.

We want to see just how heroic this young disciple of Grand Tutor Situ is, the one who was appointed as a general by the Emperor at such a young age."

Duan Fengyun knew that if he did not let Ning Ke see Yuwen Tuo today, she would certainly not let the matter rest.

So he said:

"Very well, let it be as you say.

But as I just said, you must absolutely not disturb Young Master Yuwen's practice."

After repeatedly admonishing Ning Ke and her maid, Duan Fengyun brought the two of them into the courtyard.

Upon entering, Ning Ke and her maid heard a burst of sword ringing.

The two of them walked curiously into the courtyard and saw a handsome youth holding a golden sword, constantly swinging it back and forth.

The youth had not discovered their arrival at all and was burying himself in hard practice.

Ning Ke looked at Yuwen Tuo with a smile; she wanted to see just how formidable this former Earth Emperor Destiny and current master of the Xuanyuan Sword was, for whom her father had specifically sent her to the Human Realm.

However, after watching for a long time, Ning Ke did not find anything different about Yuwen Tuo compared to others, and she could not help but feel a bit disappointed.

At this time, Yuwen Tuo, who had finished his sword practice and sat by the stone table to rest and drink water, finally noticed Ning Ke and her maid on the side.

But Yuwen Tuo ignored them; in the current Yuwen Tuo, he found it hard to trust people, so he had always kept himself locked in a cage within his heart.

Seeing that Yuwen Tuo turned a blind eye to her, Ning Ke said to the maid in a huff:

"Let's go, this Yuwen Tuo is so boring!"

After the maid apologized to Qin Shuang, she chased after Ning Ke and left the Situ Gong Mansion.

Watching Ning Ke's departing back, Duan Fengyun smiled to himself:

"What a little chili pepper.

Yuwen Tuo, you fellow are going to have a hard time in the future."

Duan Fengyun did not interrupt Yuwen Tuo's cultivation; he knew that the current Yuwen Tuo placed cultivation above all else, and anyone who delayed his practice would be viewed by him as an enemy.

After Yuwen Tuo finished his training plan, he came to Duan Fengyun's side and asked:

"Who were the people who just came? I have never seen them before."

Duan Fengyun replied:

"That little girl just now was the little Commandery Princess from the Shun Prince Mansion, and the other one was her maid.

They came to see you, the young hero."

Yuwen Tuo sneered:

"Young hero!

They came to see me, the prince of a fallen nation, right? Their Yang family destroyed my Northern Zhou and killed my father the Emperor; I share an irreconcilable hatred with them."

In Yuwen Tuo's heart, the two people who caused his tragic background were Yang Su, who killed his father and captured his mother, and the Emperor of that time.

The current Yuwen Tuo was filled with hatred for the entire royal Yang family, so at this stage, he had no good feelings toward Ning Ke; instead, he felt a deep sense of hatred in his heart.

Seeing this, Duan Fengyun thought to himself:

"If you knew that your future wife would be the person you dislike the most, what would you do?"

Duan Fengyun would not interfere with the romantic arc between Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke; this was an important main plotline of the Xuanyuan Sword story, and if there were no Tuo-Ke romance, many subsequent plot points would not be able to unfold.

When Ning Ke returned to the Prince's Mansion, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became; this Yuwen Tuo actually dared to ignore her.

If she were in the Demon Realm, she would have long since made Yuwen Tuo suffer a fate worse than death.

However, having lived for five hundred years after all, Ning Ke calmed the anger in her heart before long.

After calming down, Ning Ke became even more interested in Yuwen Tuo.

With her strong desire to conquer, she wanted to conquer this unruly youth and make him kneel at her feet.

Didn't Yuwen Tuo ignore her?

Then she would go to the Situ Gong Mansion every day to see Yuwen Tuo; she did not believe that Yuwen Tuo would not take the bait after her persistence.

As the Demon Lord's Daughter, she did not believe there was a man in the world she could not conquer.

And at this moment inside the Situ Gong Mansion, Yuwen Tuo was standing respectfully before Yang Su.

Yang Su looked at the respectful Yuwen Tuo and said:

"Tuo'er, haven't you always wanted to improve your own strength?

You should have seen the power of your master's Divine Fire Clone, right?

It can reach anywhere within a range of several thousand miles in the blink of an eye, and its attacks are even more watertight; I wonder if you would like to learn it?"

Yuwen Tuo stared fixedly at Yang Su and asked:

"You are actually willing to teach me the Divine Fire Clone?

Aren't you afraid that one day, I will use the Divine Fire Clone to kill you?"

Regarding Yang Su's intention to pass on the Divine Fire Clone to him, Yuwen Tuo did not believe it in the slightest.

After all, the Divine Fire Clone was considered the number one secret attack technique today and belonged to Yang Su's non-transferable mystery; that Yang Su would teach this thing to him made it very hard for Yuwen Tuo to believe.

Yang Su laughed loudly:

"Since I dared to take you as my disciple, I am not afraid that you will have a day of betraying me.

Don't forget, there is still someone waiting to see you inside the Otherworld every year!

Yuwen Tuo, if you want to learn the Divine Fire Clone, then kneel down, call me Master three times, and I will pass the Divine Fire Clone to you."

"You!"

Yuwen Tuo did not expect Yang Su to make such a demand.

But Yuwen Tuo could not refuse; he needed to become stronger, so he had to learn the Divine Fire Clone.

Thinking of his mother imprisoned by Yang Su in the Otherworld, Yuwen Tuo felt his whole body filled with motivation; personal honor and disgrace counted for nothing, he must rescue his mother, he must take revenge for Northern Zhou.

The belief in revenge made Yuwen Tuo kneel to the ground with a thud; Yuwen Tuo kowtowed to Yang Su while saying:

"Master is above, please accept your disciple's kowtow."

Seeing Yuwen Tuo's appearance of swallowing his pride, Yang Su laughed loudly:

"Hahahaha, good, disciple.

Your master is very happy, your master will now pass the Divine Fire Clone to you."

Yang Su pointed his fingertip at Yuwen Tuo's head, and Yuwen Tuo fainted instantly.

When Yuwen Tuo woke up again, he was lying on his bed, while Duan Fengyun was silently watching him from the side.

Yuwen Tuo touched his head; there were many more things inside his head, all of which were records regarding the Divine Fire Clone.

Yuwen Tuo said with an excited face:

"Haha, I have finally obtained the Divine Fire Clone.

Old thief Yang Su, you just wait for me.

One day, I will return all the pain you have inflicted upon me back to you.

I, Yuwen Tuo, must avenge Northern Zhou, my mother, and all the grudges I bear."

Yuwen Tuo turned his head to look at Duan Fengyun and said:

"How long have I been asleep?"

"You have been asleep for half an hour; I went to the main hall and brought you back."

Every word of Duan Fengyun seemed to carry some kind of magic; after hearing it, Yuwen Tuo began to feel drowsy again.

Seeing the confused Yuwen Tuo, Duan Fengyun smiled:

"Very good, your Divine Fire Clone is in hand, so my Divine Fire Clone should be in hand as well."

When Duan Fengyun saw Yuwen Tuo just waking up, he realized this was the best opportunity for him to steal the Divine Fire Clone, so he decisively used the Soul Bewitching Great Method on Yuwen Tuo.

Under the Soul Bewitching Great Method, Duan Fengyun extracted the entire Cultivation Method of the Divine Fire Clone from Yuwen Tuo's mouth.

If it were the adult Yuwen Tuo, it would be nothing short of a pipe dream for Duan Fengyun to want to do this; Yuwen Tuo's Spirit Sense counterattack would have made Duan Fengyun suffer unbearably.

Therefore, the present was indeed the best opportunity for Duan Fengyun to obtain the Divine Fire Clone.

After Duan Fengyun obtained the incantation for the Divine Fire Clone, he withdrew the Soul Bewitching Great Method, and Yuwen Tuo gradually woke up.

Yuwen Tuo touched his throbbing head, thinking it was because the data volume of the Divine Fire Clone was too large for him to accept all at once, so he continued to lie down and sleep.
