Extraordinary Demon King Soldier Chapter 753 - 751: Sworn Brothers

"What is mine will ultimately be mine, and what is not, no matter how hard I try to keep it, I cannot." Ye Qiu said calmly.

Is he not tempted by the manuscript of the Shao Family?

Of course he is!

But Ye Qiu also deeply understands a truth; one must uphold righteousness in the world of martial arts.

Not all benefits can be claid for oneself.

"Brother Ye, thank you, really thank you so much, this manuscript is of great importance to !" Monk Duren tightly held the manuscript, his gratitude beyond words.

"It was no trouble at all." Ye Qiu smiled.

"Brother Ye, I, Du Ren, truly admire your character trendously." Du Ren looked deeply at Ye Qiu, pondering for a mont, he continued, "If I could beco a sworn brother with Brother Ye, it would truly be my utmost fortune in this life. What are your thoughts, Brother Ye?"

"I certainly have no objections!" Ye Qiu responded decisively.

How could he reject a brotherhood with soone as righteous, powerful, and well-connected as Du Ren?

"Hahaha!" Du Ren laughed heartily, saying, "Brother Ye, you are indeed a straightforward person. In that case, why don't we seize the mont and beco sworn brothers here at the Shaolin Temple today?

I am a monk and cannot drink. Why don't we go to the main hall and burn two sticks of incense as part of the process?"

"That works too." Ye Qiu nodded slightly.

Without wasting any ti, the two quickly arrived at the main hall of the Shaolin Temple.

"With Buddha above and heaven as my witness, I, Du Ren, today beco a sworn brother with Ye Qiu. We seek not to be born in the sa year, month, and day, but to die in the sa year, month, and day; not to share prosperity, but to face hardships together!"

After saying this, Monk Duren bowed deeply to the Buddha statue.

Ye Qiu also said the sa words and completed the process, which formally made them brothers.

Imdiately after, the two left the main hall.

Du Ren thought for a while, then said, "Brother Ye, I have always been curious about what you ca to Zheng City for. Now that we are sworn brothers, if you encounter any trouble, perhaps you could tell , and I might be able to help."

He did not think that a top martial artist like Ye Qiu would wander into Zheng City for no reason.

Ye Qiu chuckled and said, "I ca to Zheng City because I heard that your Shao Family is in seclusion here. I wanted to see if I could make contact. I didn't expect to coincidentally et you, but I didn't know your identity before."

"I see!" Du Ren nodded slightly and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Brother Ye sought out our Shao Family firstly to get acquainted with us, and secondly to understand more about the Hidden Clans, am I right? Judging by Brother Ye's deanor, perhaps you don't have much understanding about the Hidden Clans."

"Indeed so." Ye Qiu smiled faintly, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Hahaha!"

Du Ren laughed heartily and said, "Brother Ye need not feel embarrassed. Hidden Clans are, after all, hidden; it's normal not to know about them. But given Brother Ye's current strength, you really should understand more about the Hidden Clans.

Since we're on the topic, let enlighten you a bit about the Hidden Clans."

Ye Qiu nodded, saying no more.

He grew serious.

Du Ren was right; with his current strength, he indeed needed to learn more about the Hidden Clans, as even the most basic knowledge could significantly aid his future developnt.

Du Ren smiled and continued, "Within the realm of Huaxia, the power hierarchy of the Hidden Cultivation Realm is mainly divided into one Dao, three Clans, and five Families. The so-called one Dao refers to an old taoist, whose strength is unfathomable and is a super expert of the Divinity Transformation Realm.

The three Clans refer to our Shao Family, the Ming Clan in the Capital City, and the Jin Clan in the Great Desert. Besides these, there are five Families, which are the Ouyang Family of Gan Province, the Zhuge Clan of Lu Province, the Shangguan Clan of Yu Province, the Sima Clan of Shan Province, and the Dongfang Family of Guangdong Province."

"Among them, the taoist possesses the strongest strength, but only the three Clans and the five Families count as Hidden Clans, with profound heritage, and each clan has Secret Realms supporting the cultivation of their disciples."

"This is the general situation. As for more details, Brother Ye will need to engage with the Hidden Clans to gain further understanding."

"This information is very beneficial to ." Ye Qiu smiled.

What Du Ren spoke of were just the basic information about the Hidden Clans, yet to Ye Qiu, this was still very important.

At least knowing these things allows him, when traveling to certain places and eting people from these clans, to have so grounding whether forging alliances or rivalries.

Du Ren nodded slightly and continued, "Given Brother Ye's current strength, at any Hidden Clan, you have the right to be personally greeted by the clan leader.

However, even so, I still hope Brother Ye would try not to offend people from the Hidden Clans. After all, the Hidden Clans have existed for many years; they have deep foundations, and many hidden cards that, once revealed, are quite terrifying."

"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Du."

Ye Qiu naturally agreed with Du Ren's words, and he wasn't soone who liked causing trouble. As long as people from the Hidden Clans didn't bother him, he wouldn't go out of his way to provoke anyone.

Of course, if there were indeed people from the Hidden Clans who deliberately sought to trouble Ye Qiu, he would not hesitate to confront them.

After chatting for a while, Monk Duren left first, saying he wanted to go back to study the content of the manuscript. He seed extrely eager, saying that if his strength improved, he would spar with Ye Qiu again.

Having befriended Monk Duren ant that Ye Qiu had also ford a connection with the entire Shao Family, accomplishing the purpose of his trip. Thus, he was in no hurry.

After parting with Du Ren, he returned to his room and patiently waited.

Du Ren went into seclusion to study the manuscript for a full month.

Ye Qiu also waited for a month.

A month later!

One morning, Du Ren ca to find Ye Qiu, excitedly saying, "Brother Ye, I've finished studying part of the Shao Family's manuscript, and I feel my strength has sowhat improved. If you have ti, we could spar a bit!"

"Of course!"

Feeling the significant change in Du Ren's aura and spirit, Ye Qiu's eyes lit up and he agreed without hesitation!

Ye Qiu could clearly feel that Du Ren's strength had indeed increased significantly!

Being able to spar with such a master, the blood in Ye Qiu's body had already begun to boil!

Without wasting words, the two imdiately went to an open space in the Shaolin Temple's Inner Courtyard, ready to spar!

This battle was one both had long anticipated.
