Fantasy/Heroic: Heaven-Burning Divine Fire, Earthly Sovereign!

As Yuwen Tuo walked past the many treasures in the shop, the Xuanyuan Sword showed a slight reaction.

However, there was no particularly direct perception.

This surprised him somewhat.

Sword Fifteen isn't here?

However, Yuwen Tuo didn't want to ask too many questions.

Revealing the origin of the Xuanyuan Sword Soul would likely cause a huge uproar.

According to the Xuanyuan Sword's senses, Sword Fifteen is not here, but it should not be far from here.

"It seems the boss was right; this sword is the perfect fit for me."

Yuwen Tuo turned around and looked at Jia Bujia with a fake smile.

"It's our shop's fault for not satisfying the young master."

Jia Bujia responded with a smile.

"You're too kind!"

Yuwen Tuo echoed this, glancing at Han Teng.

Han Teng handed over the immortal gold, which Jia Bujia accepted with both hands, his face beaming with joy.

"Is there anything else you'd like, young master? For example, armor? I have an excellent set of armor here."

Jia Bujia wanted to recommend some more things.

This guy is definitely not short of money!

"No need!"

Yuwen Tuo shook his head and refused.

This sword can change size and is very convenient to use.

The armor is different.

Once you put on the armor, your movements will inevitably be restricted, and you won't feel as free as you do with this sword.

Moreover, one's own body will grow larger, becoming a burden instead.

Yuwen Tuo exchanged a few more words with Jia Bujia before preparing to leave and return to the mountain to refine the treasure.

"If you need anything else, please feel free to come to our shop."

Jia saw the guest off with a forced smile.

However, before Yuwen Tuo could even step out the door, he suddenly felt the Xuanyuan Sword inside his body vibrate violently.

If he hadn't suppressed it, it probably would have already emitted light and was about to fly out of its body.

Not far from the entrance, a child of similar age walked over with a group of guards.

The Xuanyuan Sword's sensation came from within.

"Young Master, this is the Immortal Treasure Shop."

The guard leader began his introduction.

The little boy nodded maturely and walked straight into the store.

Yuwen Tuo's eyes lit up when he saw it.

"Uncle Han, I remember you also wanted to buy a knife, why don't you buy it at the same time!"

Although Han Teng didn't know what Yuwen Tuo was planning, he still nodded in agreement.

"What kind of knife would you like, sir?" Jia Bujia's face lit up with joy at the prospect of another sale.

At that moment, the same group of people who had spoken earlier walked in.

"Shopkeeper!"

The child walks into the store and greets the customer.

"What would you like?" Jia Bujia's eyes lit up when he saw the entourage's entourage.

He gestured for Yuwen Tuo and the others to look first, and then immediately stepped forward to greet them.

"We want some Taoist soldiers."

The child states his purpose.

"Dao Bing, our shop has quite a few. How much would you like, young master?"

Jia was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this.

Dao weapons are not like the immortal swords used by Yuwen Tuo, but rather mortal weapons imbued with the power of immortals.

They do have it in their store, but it's not their main product.

"Check the quality of the goods; if they're good, we'll order three thousand pieces."

The young master was unaware of Jia Bujia's attitude. Instead, he slowly spoke and stated his needs.

"Three thousand pieces, I need to check if we have that many."

"Young master, please wait a moment, I'll go check it out right away."

Jia Bujia was overjoyed to hear that there were three thousand items.

Taoist soldiers aren't expensive, but there are just too many of them!

This is a big customer!

What's going on today? I'm so lucky, two big customers have come in at once.

He politely cupped his hands in greeting, then walked into the back warehouse.

The child looked around, his gaze sweeping over Yuwen Tuo and Han Teng before turning back to look at his own retainers.

"I don't know why Father obeys Emperor Yang Jian of Sui's arrangements so readily. This man plotted to flee to Northern Zhou and now wants to destroy Chen. Father should not be an accomplice to evil."

When the child got to this point, he let out a long sigh, seemingly expressing some dissatisfaction.

The guard behind him changed his expression. "Young Master, please don't speak recklessly!"

After speaking, the man glanced warily at Yuwen Tuo and Han Teng, fearing that the two might report him later.

It turns out that the young man was Lü Chengzhi, the son of Lü Kai, the King of the South.

The Southern Chen army was defeated and fled, and one detachment was led by Chen Fu to escape to the border region.

Prince Lü Kai of the South was ordered to guard the border passes of the Central Plains. Yang Jian ordered him to ambush and kill the defeated army of the Southern Chen.

Chen Fu's cultivation was extraordinary, and he was famous throughout the land.

Fearing that he was not strong enough, Lü Kai sent his family retainers and youngest son, Lü Chengzhi, to the Immortal Treasure Shop to purchase more Daoist soldiers in order to enhance his family's strength and make it easier to fight.

He also knew that this was Yang Jian's plan to kill two birds with one stone.

If the two of them were to fight to the death, it would only benefit the imperial court.

But if they don't fight, the imperial court will use this opportunity to make things difficult for them.

They had no choice but to improve their own strength first and make other plans.

Lu Chengzhi was persuaded by his family retainers, and his face showed a bit of embarrassment.

But just now, I was just acting like a child, indulging in a moment of anger, completely forgetting what kind of trouble such words would bring to my father and family.

His gaze lingered on Yuwentuo and Han Teng for a moment before being drawn to Yuwentuo.

Yuwen Tuo's build looked similar to his age, but he wore a large golden mask.

His aura was so unique that it inspired a sense of awe in him.

"Gentlemen, I was just joking with the young master. Please excuse my rudeness."

The family retainer cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards Han Teng, attempting to smooth things over.

Han Teng developed a rather favorable impression of the boy because of his words.

At this point, he understood why the guard was being so cautious, and simply nodded.

Yuwen Tuo then chuckled softly:

"People often say that children speak without restraint, and seeing it today, I can see that it is indeed true."

"The boy's words are sincere. Why is this uncle so nervous? Are you worried we'll report him?"

Yuwen Tuo's words caused the general to frown slightly.

This young man is absolutely extraordinary!

"So you agree with what I said?"

Upon hearing Yuwen Tuo's tone, Lü Chengzhi's face lit up with joy.

He was already somewhat curious about Yuwen Tuo and was just wondering if he had any reason to talk to him.

Seeing that Yuwen Tuo took the initiative to talk to him and even seemed to agree with what he said, he was overjoyed.

"It is easier to prevent a river from overflowing than to guard against people's mouths."

"Who in the world doesn't know what Yang Jian has done?"

"Justice resides in the hearts of the people; we can't prevent people from speaking their minds!"

Yuwen Tuo's words resonated deeply with Lü Chengzhi.

Although the guard was still somewhat wary of Yuwen Tuo and Han Teng, he felt a little more at ease when he saw that they were speaking in the same manner.

Perhaps this was also someone who resented Yang Jian.

"That's what I thought too, but I tried to persuade my father, but he wouldn't listen. He even told me to buy Taoist soldiers to increase our strength so we could fight against the Southern Chen army."

As Lü Chengzhi finished speaking, his face fell, and he looked quite aggrieved.

He didn't understand why the things adults did were different from the reasons they gave.

They clearly stated that they would uphold righteousness and not aid and abet evil.

Everything they did only aided and abetted the evildoers.
