Chapter 21 Misunderstanding
"You and I had the same situation, but we took two completely different paths."
There was a hint of sympathy in Di Hong's eyes when he looked at Tang Yuehua, but this hint of sympathy only flashed by for a moment and Tang Yuehua did not notice it.
"Oh?" Tang Yuehua tilted her head slightly and looked at him with a little confusion.
Di Hong explained with a smile.
"I am the fourth prince of the Silves Kingdom. The martial spirit passed down in my family is the Fire Phoenix, but it is different for me."
"You also have a mutated martial spirit?"
Tang Yuehua was not clear about this. It was impossible for her to specifically learn about Di Hong. She had only heard of Di Hong before. She knew that there was such a genius who reached the Soul King level in just six years after his martial soul awakened.
But as for his martial soul, she only regarded it as the Fire Luan.
Only today did she find out that the other party also had a mutated martial spirit.
"That's right." Di Hong took a few steps back, and after keeping a certain distance, he released his martial soul.
With a cry, a huge Vermilion Bird with flames burning all over its body appeared behind him. At the same time, fire was lingering around him, and even his eyes were covered with a layer of flames. His body was much stronger than before, and he looked like a god bathed in flames. He also exuded a surging sacred aura.
After releasing her martial spirit, Tang Yuehua kept retreating as rolling heat waves hit her. If Di Hong had not been able to control the flames, the flames alone would have been enough to burn her to ashes.
"This is my martial spirit, Suzaku."
"Top-grade martial spirit?" Tang Yuehua stared at the solid Vermillion Bird in a daze. It was the first time she had seen such a sacred martial spirit. The aura made her want to worship it unconsciously.
I'm afraid the quality of the Clear Sky Hammer is not as good as Di Hong's Suzaku Martial Spirit.
The highest quality martial soul she knew of was only the six-winged angel martial soul, but the Vermillion Bird martial soul in front of her was even stronger than the angel martial soul in terms of sacredness.
She had seen the six-winged angel spirit. Her grandfather Tang Chen and the Spirit Hall Pope Qian Daoliu had fought each other more than once. Once, she and her two brothers saw the two fighting from afar.
The sacred aura exuded by the six-winged angel is not possessed by other martial spirits.
But today, she saw a martial spirit that exuded a more sacred aura than that of a six-winged angel.
Perhaps Di Hong’s martial soul is not a top-grade martial soul at all, but a martial soul of higher quality than a top-grade martial soul.
After taking back his martial soul, Di Hong returned to his normal state.
"Although my martial soul has also mutated, it is completely opposite to yours."
Tang Yuehua didn't say anything, just nodded.
The two continued on their way.
However, this time was not like before. The two talked about many things. Since Tang Yuehua could not become a soul master, he also encouraged her to take another path.
Because he knew that there were many things that soul masters could not do. Just as Tang Yuehua thought, since she knew she could not become a soul master, she turned to learn other things, such as business and etiquette, which were her focus of study.
Although the Haotian Sect is the number one sect in the world, the sect members seldom communicate with others. It’s not that they are arrogant, nor are they fools, but they just don’t know how to talk to others. Everyone in the sect is straightforward and sometimes they just start fighting after just a few words. But after the fight, those who want to drink drink and those who want to practice practice, and their relationships are still as good as before.
In the eyes of the sect disciples, all conflicts can be resolved by fighting.
This also led to many forces being dissatisfied with the Haotian Sect, believing that the Haotian Sect was bullying others by abusing its power.
It's not that they want to bully others by taking advantage of their power. The atmosphere of Haotian Sect is that the strong are respected. So in Haotian Sect, words are useless. Only fists are the best way to communicate. Although this can allow the sect to have many strong people, it can also make the sect make too many enemies.
It is precisely because of this that she needs to learn how to communicate with others, learn aristocratic etiquette, music, and expand her network.
The Spirit Hall is suppressing the Haotian Sect, and basically all forces don't want to get involved. They can't afford to offend this sect and this hall, and they are also happy to see the two top forces fighting each other, especially the Tiandou Empire.
Although the Haotian Sect is located in the Tiandou Empire, he actually does not support the Tiandou Empire, but secretly supports the Xingluo Empire, because the Xingluo Empire is the same as them, and only the strongest can sit on the throne of the empire. This is very much to the Haotian Sect's liking.
However, the Haotian Sect is not so bloody. There is no need to kill your own brothers.
In the evening, they walked out of the Sunset Forest and came to a small town.
There were many soul masters gathered in twos and threes in the town. When the two entered the town, they quickly attracted attention. The appearance of a handsome man and a beautiful woman was hard not to attract attention, but they just glanced at them and went on with their business.
We are all soul masters, so we can naturally see Di Hong’s strength.
We came to a hotel in the town. The hotel was very simple, with only two floors and the entire structure was made of wood.
I entered the hotel and found a seat by the window. As soon as I sat down, the waiter came over.
"What would you like to eat, my guest?"
Then he handed Di Hong a menu, and Di Hong took the menu and handed it to Tang Yuehua.
"Just order it."
Tang Yuehua didn't act pretentiously. She started ordering after taking the menu. However, she didn't order too expensive dishes because she had no money as it had been lost long ago, so she simply ordered a few cheap dishes.
Di Hong added a few more meat dishes and returned the menu to the waiter.
"Guest, please wait a moment."
After the waiter left, another waiter came with a pot of tea.
The two drank tea and chatted. After a long time, the waiter brought the dishes.
After the dishes were served, Di Hong asked, "Do you have any rooms left?"
"Oh, what a coincidence, we only have one room left." The waiter smiled.
"Ah?" Di Hong looked at the waiter with a strange expression. What kind of routine was this? Looking around, there weren't many people in the hotel.
"Are you sure there's only one room?"
"Correct."
Di Hong looked around in disbelief and confirmed that there were less than twenty people in the entire hotel. He looked at the waiter again.
"Are you really sure?"
"I'm absolutely sure. I'm a hotel service staff. How many rooms are left in this hotel? How could I not know?"
The waiter spoke in a very affirmative tone, but there was something strange in his eyes when he looked at Di Hong. He thought to himself that he had cooperated so well, so why was this man still so honest?
He just couldn't understand how such a straight guy could get such a beautiful girlfriend?
Obviously he misunderstood the relationship between Di Hong and Tang Yuehua, but it was indeed hard not to misunderstand. After all, when such a handsome man and beautiful woman appeared together, anyone would think they were a couple.
Moreover, Tang Yuehua was wearing Di Hong's clothes.
Just when Di Hong was about to say something else, Tang Yuehua spoke.
“Are there any other hotels in town?”
It was already late, so they could only stay in this small town for the time being.
"No more. We are the only hotel in the whole town." The waiter said seriously. He would never allow this business to slip away from him, and theirs was indeed the only hotel in the town.
