"Wait for me to get a sword art manual, hahaha …"
Du Feng would be easily monitored, but the Sword Emperor didn't have this problem. However, in order to not attract attention, he shrunk his body to around two metres. In Hearthstone City, his height was not that eye-catching, and no one would notice him.
Of course, the Sword Emperor could return to his original height of five metres in battle. This was because he was at his strongest when he was at this height. Whether it was two metres, ten metres, or twenty metres, it was not as strong as the Sharkman Skeleton's original five metres.
"Wait, I forgot something."
Just as the Sword Emperor was about to open the door, he suddenly thought of something. He didn't have much money. He needed to borrow some from Du Feng in order to buy things outside.
"Ugh … I forgot about that too. Take some money and go to Salt Lake City to find Niu Er."
Du Feng thought about it and told the Sword Emperor to go to Salt Lake City. He could use the teleportation circle freely anyways, so he didn't have to worry about being identified. He was temporarily unable to leave Hearthstone City, although he could change his appearance and wander around the city. Although he could disguise himself, he would have to be identified if he wanted to go out or use the teleportation circle.
With the Fu family's power, they could definitely control the teleportation circle so that Du Feng couldn't go to Salt Lake City. They might even throw him into the spatial turbulence.
The Sword Emperor was different. Apart from Du Feng, no one knew him, so it was safe for him to go in and out. The Sword Emperor's original plan was to take the money and walk around Hearthstone City to see if there were any good sword arts to buy. With his perception and foresight, he would be able to identify a good sword art at a glance.
However, Du Feng felt that rather than spending money in Hearthstone City, it was better for the Sword Emperor to go to Salt Lake City. He could use the teleportation circle to find Niu Er anyways. Now that Niu Er had returned to the Niu family, it would be a matter of time for the Sword Emperor to buy a good sword art.
"Hmm, that's a good idea. I'll be right back."
The Sword Emperor felt that this was a good idea. With someone he knew leading the way, he could not only buy a good sword art but also save money. One didn't need to spend immortal stones to buy things in Salt Lake City; they just needed to bring enough crystalline salt.
Just like that, the Sword Emperor left the inn with a large amount of Crystal Salt. No one recognized him, so no one followed him. Du Feng was also very cooperative. He purposely walked around the hall and attracted the attention of the spies.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry, please come inside. Why isn't Brother Du here? What's the point of staying in that broken furnace?"
Niu Er warmly welcomed the Sword Emperor. He was no longer the Blacksmith Niu Er, but the son of the Deputy City Lord, the son of the City Lord, and the famous Young Master Niu Er. He no longer lived in the shabby blacksmith's shop, but in a spacious mansion.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk … You're living quite a comfortable life. Brother Du should come here."
To be honest, the Sword Emperor agreed with Niu Er. Du Feng did not feel comfortable in Hearthstone City at all. Moreover, Hearthstone City was filled with fiery red colors, which did not suit his taste. Moreover, there were people from the Fu Clan watching over him, so he couldn't move freely.
What good brother Fu Xi? The Sword Emperor wasn't familiar with him anyway. In the lower world, even Fu Xi's father Fu Yan was not as senior as the Sword Emperor. However, the world had changed. The Sword Emperor and Du Feng were now brothers.
Du Feng was too loyal, insisting on staying in Hearthstone City to help Fu Xi. If he had chosen to leave from the start, the Fu Clan probably wouldn't have stopped him. Now that he dared to meet up with Old Mister Linghu, it wouldn't be so easy for him to leave.
"How dare someone detain my Brother Du?"
Niu Er was furious. He was now the Second Young Master of Salt Lake City, so he had some ability. Under normal circumstances, as long as his father Niu Guitian said something, the other party would obediently let him go.
"Don't be so agitated, his situation is a bit complicated."
This time, it was the Sword Emperor's turn to persuade Niu Er. First of all, Hearthstone City was very far from Salt Lake City. Salt Lake City was a city near North Shore Immortal City, in the northeast of South Heaven Realm, while Hearthstone City was in the southwest. No matter how famous Niu Guitian was, he couldn't interfere in Hearthstone City's affairs.
Moreover, there was an Immortal Monarch in Hearthstone City, and the Fu Clan could cover the sky with one hand. They wouldn't allow others to interfere in their affairs. Even if they rescued Du Feng, it would be the same as harming Fu Xi. With Du Feng's personality, he definitely wouldn't let his good brother suffer.
"Ai, forget it, let him do as he sees fit."
Niu Er felt helpless, knowing that he couldn't help Du Feng. But it didn't matter, he could help the Sword Emperor. He heard that the Sword Emperor was here to find a good Golden Immortal sword art. This wasn't difficult, he could just ask his father and say that Du Feng needed it.
To be honest, Du Feng really did need it. He and the Sword Emperor were both Golden Immortal Cultivation, but they didn't have a Golden Immortal sword art. Although he relied on his talent in using the sword, he was still stronger than other martial artists of the same rank. But without a matching sword art, it would still affect his fighting strength.
"Alright, pick whatever you want!"
Damn, Niu Guitian was too valuable. More accurately, that dragon egg was too precious. What was one sword technique? As long as Du Feng wanted it, he could give him ten sword techniques.
Niu Er smiled slyly and stole two sword arts from his father's study. Both of them were supreme-grade Sword Arts. One was a supreme-grade Sword Art of the Golden Celestial Stage, and the other was a supreme-grade Sword Art of the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven. Since his father said to pick whatever he wanted, he might as well prepare Golden Immortal of Zenith Heaven for Brother Du.
Although Niu Guitian had the bloodline of an orc, he really had a lot of good sword arts. In fact, only a small part of these sword arts were bought by him, most of them were robbed.
Niu Guitian didn't practice swordsmanship, but relied on his strength and invulnerable physique to defeat many sword cultivators of the same rank. After defeating one, he took away their sword arts, and then slowly accumulated a lot. Now that he was already a Celestial Lord, he didn't challenge people casually, and those sword arts were useless in the house.
Anyway, he wasn't short of money, so he didn't want to sell sword arts to make money. Once he heard that Du Feng needed it, he would definitely be very generous.
However, after Niu Er gave the sword art to the Sword Emperor, he picked up the Golden Immortal sword art and directly used it, not bringing it back to Du Feng at all.
"Ah, how can you do this?"
