Chapter 17: Xiu'er, You Are the Future Leader of the Soul Clan
Nightfall.
In Hun Tian Di's study.
"Patriarch."
At this moment, Hun Shou walked into the study room with extreme respect, feeling quite restrained.
Who is Hun Tian Di?
Hun Tian Di is the patriarch of the Hun Clan who always says what he means and is cold and ruthless.
Everyone in the tribe, whether elders or tribe members, are extremely afraid to see him.
Because every time they see him, they can feel the endless power emanating from him, which makes them feel extremely frightened.
"What's up?"
Hun Tian Di glanced at Hun Shou and spoke lightly.
His tone was icy cold, with no warmth at all.
He sat there, looking intimidating without even getting angry.
People didn't even dare to get close.
Hun Shou stood there in a state of panic. Even though he hadn't done anything wrong, he still felt indescribably terrified and frightened when facing Hun Tian Di.
Although Hun Shou was also a Dou Sheng strongman, when facing the clan leader, Hun Tian Di, he seemed so insignificant.
The imperial aura that the clan leader, Hun Tian Di, unintentionally exuded was so terrifying.
If not for Hun Xiu's matter, Hun Shou might not have dared to approach the clan leader, Hun Tian Di.
Hun Shou said respectfully: "Patriarch, I am here regarding Master Hun Xiu's business."
"Xiu'er?"
When Hun Tian Di heard what Hun Shou said, he frowned slightly and looked at him.
Suddenly, Hun Shou felt an overwhelming force pressing down on him, like an immense tidal wave.
He was horrified.
Although both of them were Dou Sheng masters, the gap between one star and nine stars was immense.
Hun Tian Di said in a deep voice: "What happened to Xiu'er?"
In Hun Tian Di's view, something must have happened to Hun Xiu, or else Hun Shou, the elder of the Fighting Skills Pavilion, wouldn't have come to him.
However, among the Soul Clan in the Soul Realm, Hun Tian Di couldn't imagine what could happen to his Xiu'er. What could possibly happen on his own territory?
If something happened, wouldn't it be a slap in his face?
Hun Shou said respectfully: "Reporting to the clan leader, Master Hun Xiu has been borrowing yellow-level fighting skills from the Fighting Skills Pavilion these days."
"It seems that Master Hun Xiu is practicing yellow-level fighting skills."
After he finished speaking, Hun Shou lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Hun Tian Di at all.
When Hun Tian Di heard this, he frowned and remained silent for a long time.
He thought something had happened to Hun Xiu, but it turned out that Hun Shou had come here only because of the fighting skills he was practicing.
"Fighting skills?"
"Yellow-level fighting skills?"
Hun Tian Di didn't believe that his son, this very hardworking son, would choose such a rubbish fighting skill as the yellow-level fighting skill and abandon the high-level skills in the fighting skill pavilion.
Hun Tian Di was silent for a long time before slowly saying, "I know about this matter. You may leave now."
"Yes."
Hun Shou quickly took his leave.
Hun Tian Di was the only one left in the study. He murmured, "Xiu'er, what are you doing?"
He took out the Emperor Burning Flame Technique and the Flame Devouring Codex for some unknown reason. Yet, despite his hints and instructions, Hun Xiu still chose the Flame Devouring Codex.
He originally thought that Hun Xiu would come to him in a day to exchange it for the Emperor Burning Flame Technique. After all, he couldn't understand the Flame Devouring Codex at all.
Could it be that Hun Xiu wanted to practice it?
It seemed impossible.
However, several days had passed, and Hun Xiu had still not come to him to exchange the Emperor Burning Flame Technique.
"Did he really succeed in practicing the Flamw Devouring Codex?"
"Now, he's practicing some yellow-level fighting skills. What on earth is this guy trying to do?"
Back in the mountain.
"Call..."
Hun Xiu let out a long breath and stopped the seals in his hands. After practicing for the past few days, Hun Xiu clearly felt that the Dou Qi in his body was extremely saturated. He believed it would not be long before he could reach the three stars of Dou Ling.
The fighting spirit in the soul world was extremely abundant, several times that of the outside world, making training much more effective.
Of course, the Flame Devouring Codex that he practiced also played a key role. After all, the Flame Devouring Codex was an unknown cultivation method.
In Hun Xiu's eyes, the Flame Devouring Codex must be a high-level martial art that surpasses Heaven(Tian) level.
With the environment, resources, and talents he was in, if only he didn't waste time in the early stages, he could be nearly invincible in the mainland in the later stages.
For now, he should focus on his training and set small goals, then aim to become a Dou Zun.
"Um?"
"Who?"
Hun Xiu felt some movement behind him and turned around.
"Father…Father."
Hun Xiu turned around and saw Hun Tian Di standing behind him, and he was slightly stunned.
After coming back to his senses, he quickly bowed respectfully to Hun Tian Di.
Hun Tian Di stood there, his feet always one centimeter above the ground. He was dressed in white clothes as white as snow, spotless, with his three thousand long black hair flying like a banished immortal walking out of a painting.
An ethereal air emanated from his body, filled with supreme imperial dominance.
Hun Tian Di looked at Hun Xiu and said, "Xiu'er, I can feel that you are about to reach three stars-Dou Ling. Have you successfully practiced the Flame Devouring Codex?"
Hun Xiu said without hiding anything: "Reporting to father, Xiu'er has indeed successfully practiced the Flame Devouring Codex."
"Oh!"
Hun Tian Di replied indifferently.
He was slightly shocked in his heart. You know, even he and Void Swallowing Flame had studied this Flame Devouring Codex for a long time, but they still couldn't understand the cultivation method recorded in it.
Now, not only did Hun Xiu understand it, but he also successfully practiced it.
At this moment, Hun Tian Di couldn't help but recall what Hun Xiu had said when he insisted on choosing the Flame Devouring Book.
"Father, I feel a strong connection to this technique. I must practice it."
It seems he is indeed destined to use this cultivation method.
Hun Tian Di did not ask Hun Xiu how he understood the Flame Devouring Codex or how he practiced it.
For strong men like them, cultivation methods were no longer important, because it was impossible for them to abandon their cultivation and start practicing all over again.
Hun Tian Di said: "Xiu'er, do you know why I came to see you?"
Hun Xiu shook his head and said, "Xiu'er doesn't know."
He really didn't know why Hun Tian Di came to find him; he hadn't done anything wrong.
Besides, Hun Tian Di was very busy with state affairs, so it was impossible for him to come to him for no reason.
Hun Tian Di: "I heard that the fighting skills you are practicing are yellow-level fighting skills?"
"Um?"
When Hun Xiu heard this, he immediately understood that they had come for the fighting skills he practiced.
He murmured in his heart, "It seems that Hun Shou has reported me to my father for borrowing three yellow-level fighting skills in a row."
Hun Xiu admitted: "Reporting to father, Xiu'er has indeed practiced the yellow-level fighting skills."
Seeing Hun Xiu nod, Hun Tian Di said in a deep voice: "Xiu'er, you are my son, the son of Hun Tian Di, and the future leader of the Hun Clan. These yellow-level fighting skills are not suitable for you."
The words were filled with meaning that could not be disobeyed.
