Chapter 415: Sworn Brothers

~10 min read 1,961 words

The next morning, Yuwen Tuo and Duan Fengyun woke up beautifully from their sleep.

The reason the two rose so early was because when they were drinking last night, they had already decided to go to the North Sea the next day to visit Guyue Xianren and the others.

After a heavy bout of drinking, the two ate a simple breakfast, then rode the ancient fierce beast Qiongqi toward the North Sea.

Standing on Qiongqi, Yuwen Tuo teased:

"Big Brother, your cultivation is so much better than mine, yet it's a pity that when you travel, you either have to use the Xuanyuan Sword or use your Divine Fire Clone.

Don't you want to be like me and get yourself a mount? That would look much more imposing."

Duan Fengyun looked at the smug-looking Yuwen Tuo and smiled:

"Brother Yuwen, you are right; getting a mount is indeed much more imposing.

However, I have already found my mount."

Yuwen Tuo said with a look of shock:

"What, Big Brother, you already have a mount? I don't know what kind of divine beast your mount is; tell me so I can see it for myself."

Yuwen Tuo did not believe what Duan Fengyun said; he thought Duan Fengyun was just saying these words on purpose so as not to lose face.

【Recommendation: Ye Guo Reading is really great for catching up on books; everyone can try downloading it here.】

Yuwen Tuo wanted to see how Duan Fengyun would justify this lie.

Duan Fengyun knew what Yuwen Tuo was thinking, and he said unhurriedly:

"Brother Yuwen, don't be impatient; you will know what my mount is in a moment.

It will definitely give you a big surprise when the time comes!"

Yuwen Tuo said with a look of anticipation:

"Fine, then I will wait to see what kind of divine beast your mount is, Big Brother.

I am truly looking forward to it."

Yuwen Tuo assumed Duan Fengyun was just making an excuse to go to the North Sea to search for one.

But regarding the North Sea, Yuwen Tuo knew better than anyone that there were no divine beasts there.

In the North Sea, besides that prehistoric giant beast Juhai, where else could there be any divine beasts?

As for Juhai, Yuwen Tuo would never have imagined that Duan Fengyun could take it as a mount.

After all, Yuwen Tuo had witnessed Juhai's strength.

In that region of the North Sea, Juhai's strength was infinite, so Yuwen Tuo could not believe that Duan Fengyun could take Juhai as a mount.

As an ancient fierce beast, Qiongqi's speed was naturally extremely fast; before long, the two arrived at the North Sea while chatting.

After Yuwen Tuo gave a shout, the ancient fierce beast Qiongqi flew away.

Standing before the North Sea, Yuwen Tuo teased:

"Big Brother, we have arrived at the North Sea now; you should let your mount come out.

I really want to see your mount, Big Brother."

Duan Fengyun smiled:

"Fine, since that is the case, I will let you take a look.

Brother Yuwen, you had better watch closely in a moment."

After speaking, Duan Fengyun shouted toward the North Sea:

"Little Brother, your Big Brother has come; aren't you going to come and see me?"

Hearing Duan Fengyun's voice, Juhai, who was still in deep sleep, suddenly opened its eyes.

Juhai muttered:

"How did I just hear Big Brother's voice?

Could it be that I miss Big Brother too much, and so I am having auditory hallucinations?"

Juhai thought it was confused from sleep and having hallucinations, but just as it was about to sleep again, it heard Duan Fengyun's call once more.

Now it was certain that it was its Big Brother calling it.

Juhai muttered excitedly: "It's Big Brother, it's Big Brother who has come!"

Confirming that Duan Fengyun had arrived, Juhai immediately perked up, then swam at an extremely fast speed toward where the voice came from.

Seeing that there was no response after Duan Fengyun shouted a few times, Yuwen Tuo teased:

"Big Brother, it seems your mount is not here; did you get it wrong?"

Duan Fengyun had already sensed a terrifying aura in the North Sea swimming toward the two of them.

Duan Fengyun pointed at the water and said:

"Brother Yuwen, no need to be impatient, it is here!"

Yuwen Tuo looked at the North Sea in disbelief, and immediately after, the incomparably huge ancient giant beast Juhai appeared before their eyes.

Looking at Yuwen Tuo and Duan Fengyun before it, Juhai felt extremely puzzled; clearly, its Big Brother was not among them, so why did its Big Brother's voice come from here?

Juhai looked at Yuwen Tuo and said thoughtfully:

"You are that guy who came to fight me a few years ago, right?

I clearly heard my Big Brother's voice just now, so why don't I see my Big Brother?

You two, have you seen my Big Brother?"

Yuwen Tuo looked at Juhai, then looked at Duan Fengyun and said:

"Big Brother, this is the mount you spoke of.

This is the prehistoric giant beast Juhai, the guardian divine beast of the North Sea.

And it looks like it doesn't recognize you; Big Brother, are you tricking me?"

Duan Fengyun smiled without speaking, then Duan Fengyun deliberately changed his aura and looked at Juhai, saying:

"Little brother Juhai, have you forgotten your big brother here?"

"We had an agreement that you would be my little brother for five hundred years."

"How is it that after not seeing each other for such a long time, you have forgotten what happened between the two of us?"

Upon hearing Duan Fengyun's words, Juhai opened its eyes wide and stared at Duan Fengyun; not many people knew about this matter, so how could the person before it know? Could he really be its big brother?

Juhai said tentatively:

"My big brother doesn't look like you. I don't believe you. What if you are just trying to trick me?"

Seeing that things had reached this point and Juhai still did not believe him, Duan Fengyun had no choice but to bring out his trump card.

Under Yuwen Tuo's gaze, Duan Fengyun took the set of Golden Armor he had once used to deceive Juhai out of the Void. Duan Fengyun put on the Golden Armor, donned the Golden Mask, held the Xuanyuan Sword, and said with an indifferent expression:

"Juhai, do you believe now that I am your big brother!"

Seeing this attire and sensing that aura from Duan Fengyun, Juhai finally completely believed that Duan Fengyun was its big brother.

One second it was still the incomparably huge Juhai, and the next second it transformed directly into a kawaii little seal and came before Duan Fengyun.

Yuwen Tuo looked at the two of them, speechless; he was speechless that Duan Fengyun had actually borrowed his, Yuwen Tuo's, identity to go around swindling people.

When Duan Fengyun summoned the Golden Armor, Yuwen Tuo had almost fainted.

Because Duan Fengyun's armor was exactly the same as his Golden Tiger-Head Armor, and seeing Duan Fengyun wearing the Golden Mask and holding the Xuanyuan Sword, Yuwen Tuo reckoned that even people who knew him well probably wouldn't be able to tell who was real and who was fake.

No wonder Ning Ke had said before that Duan Fengyun had used this disguise to toy with Yang Su.

It was no wonder Yang Su had been deceived, because this attire plus the Xuanyuan Sword was completely his, Yuwen Tuo's, signature look. Who could have known that someone would impersonate him, Yuwen Tuo? And now, Yuwen Tuo had experienced the feeling of having his identity stolen right to his face.

Yuwen Tuo was also quite speechless about Juhai; the dignified prehistoric giant beast Juhai was actually this stupidly cute.

Yuwen Tuo didn't even know how he had lost to a Juhai like this back then. However, Yuwen Tuo was also quite curious about how Duan Fengyun had tamed Juhai.

Although Juhai looked stupidly cute, its strength was there after all.

Juhai was not someone just anyone could tame.

Yuwen Tuo did not make a sound, watching the two brothers, Duan Fengyun and Juhai, from the side.

After having his identity confirmed by Juhai, Duan Fengyun indeed put away the Golden Armor and the Xuanyuan Sword.

Yuwen Tuo stood to the side, while Duan Fengyun still felt a bit awkward wearing these clothes.

Duan Fengyun knocked on Juhai's head and said:

"What, it's only been a few days, and you don't recognize your big brother anymore?"

"Watch how I deal with you properly!"

After speaking, Duan Fengyun gave Juhai two flicks on the head.

Pretending to be in pain, Juhai said with an innocent face:

"I don't usually see your face, Big Brother."

"However, Big Brother, you are truly heroic and formidable."

"I truly admire you, little brother that I am."

Hearing Juhai's praise, Duan Fengyun said with a proud look:

"That goes without saying, otherwise how could I be your big brother?"

"But little brother Juhai, you are also quite excellent."

Watching these two shameless people, Yuwen Tuo felt that what he had eaten last night was churning in his stomach, as if he wanted to vomit it all out.

Yuwen Tuo had long since experienced Duan Fengyun's thick skin, so he was not surprised.

What Yuwen Tuo did not expect was that Juhai was also like this; the dignified prehistoric giant beast Juhai was actually such a shameless sycophant—it was truly the greatest joke in the world.

Yuwen Tuo now had only one thought in his mind: indeed, birds of a feather flock together.

But there was one thing Yuwen Tuo did not realize: he and Duan Fengyun were also brothers, so his words naturally included himself as well.

Juhai looked up at Yuwen Tuo and said:

"Big Brother, why did you suddenly come to the North Sea?"

"And why did you come with this guy behind you?"

"A few years ago, he came to find me to fight, and then he was beaten away by me."

Duan Fengyun looked at Yuwen Tuo and laughed loudly:

"Brother Yuwen, how is it that Juhai still can't forget about the time you lost to it?"

After speaking, Duan Fengyun said to Juhai:

"Little brother, this person behind me is called Yuwen Tuo, and he is also my good brother."

"Since he is my good brother, he is naturally your good brother too."

After hearing this, Juhai's attitude toward Yuwen Tuo improved significantly, and Juhai laughed:

"So you are also the boss's brother. I only acknowledged him as my big brother after I defeated him."

"You are not my match, so I must be your older brother."

"In that case, the boss is the big brother, I am the second brother, and you... you are called Yuwen Tuo, right? Then you are the third brother."

Yuwen Tuo looked at Juhai and said with an unconvinced face:

"Juhai, the fact that I lost to you a few years ago was because my skills were not refined."

"I now have a certain degree of confidence that I can defeat you."

"I am not willing to be your third brother; I want to be your second brother."

In fact, Yuwen Tuo did not mind becoming brothers with Juhai at all; after all, this was the prehistoric Juhai. It was just that he was unconvinced in his heart—why should he be the third brother?

He wanted to spar with Juhai again to let Juhai know his power; he, Yuwen Tuo, wanted to reclaim his dignity from a few years ago.

He wanted to make this Juhai become the third brother to him and Duan Fengyun.
