Chapter 116: Seeing Through
Zhuge Huoyan announced that he would join the Bora clan as a guest secretary, although it seemed to be an idle position, but because of his arrogant and unsociable personality, the patriarch Brahlo King was extremely satisfied, and this undoubtedly affirmed the strength of the son of the chess god king.
On the other hand, although Zhuge Huoyan has to pass over the side of the Brahmanas, the back mountain of the Zhuge family is still his main place of cultivation, and now he has one more interest, that is, to teach his nephew.
"I didn't expect that in just a few days, you have become more and more accustomed here, and you can actually sleep, how did you do it?" Zhuge Zhuge Huoyan asked curiously.
"It's not simple," Zhou Fan replied: "I deliberately used my divine power to resist the heat here, but the effect was not significant, instead of this, it is better to choose to completely liberate my body and accept the power of the surrounding magma, so that I feel much more comfortable!" ”
"Good boy!" Zhuge Huoyan didn't seem to expect Zhou Fan to have this feeling, so he sighed: "Before, the family said that your cultivation talent was average, and I didn't care, but now it seems that your father is confused, if you can enter here a few days earlier, I'm afraid it won't be such strength now!" ”
"Hehe, that can only mean that the second uncle has your eye for heroes," Zhou Fan echoed casually.
"Don't pat me on the back!" Zhuge Huoyan glanced at him and said, "Let me ask you, do you know why I've been hiding here and cultivating?" ”
"The power of the Heavenly Fire here is strong, and it is quite beneficial for those who practice the power of destruction!" Zhou Fan thinks.
However, Zhuge Huoyan came over with a burst of chestnuts, and said angrily: "What you said is all nonsense, I didn't ask about this!" ”
"And what else?" Zhou Fan was puzzled.
"Don't you feel that the power of the flames here is different from the ordinary power of heavenly fire?" Zhuge Huoyan reminded.
"It's really a bit like what you said," Zhou Fan stretched out his hand to get closer to the flowing magma and said, "It's fire and it's not fire, it exists in a liquid form, it feels more like the power of heavenly fire has been refined and processed, could it be... This is the power of divine fire? ”
"You've finally guessed it!" Zhuge Huoyan sneered: "Do you think that the Zhuge family relies on formations or runes? That's a big mistake, your grandfather asked me to stay here, in fact, to protect the power of the divine fire, this is what our Zhuge family relies on to survive! ”
"But why is there no one in our family who cultivates the power of divine fire except for you?" Zhou Fan was puzzled.
"That's because we and the Divine Fire are not from the same source," Zhuge Huoyan explained: "When our family was first established, it was just a second-rate rune and formation family, although there were no strong people rampant, but it was a big family that could be relied on, and by chance, our family found a secret path in the battle to help the Borneo clan exterminate the grass pheasant clan, which can only be discovered by those who are proficient in formations, and your grandfather entered the dark path with the Borneo clan behind his back and got the divine fire, After that, he brought it back and hid it in the back mountain, and who knew that it became the current magma cave! ”
"You mean that the divine fire originated from the grass pheasant clan, and now the grass pheasant clan has long since perished?"
"That's the case, I can tell you Feng'er, now the Borneo clan are looking for the whereabouts of the divine fire, so you can go and don't leak out!"
"I know," Zhou Fan then turned to ask, "But this Divine Fire doesn't seem to be of much use to our family, Grandpa, Father, and Aunt don't seem to have cultivated Divine Fire!" ”
"Yes, but I've cultivated," Zhuge Huoyan smiled bitterly: "Seeing the way I look now, don't you think it's ridiculous?" ”
"It's alright!" Zhou Fan said a little reluctantly.
Zhuge Huoyan glanced at him and said: "I know my own situation, although I forcibly fused the power of the divine fire, but whether it is the appearance or temperament, it has been affected or changed, and now I am not so much getting the divine fire, but being controlled by the divine fire." ”
"Second uncle!" For some reason, Zhou Fan felt a little sad in his heart after listening to the other party's words.
Zhuge Huoyan patted Zhou Fan on the shoulder and said: "Boy, you have an excellent understanding of the power of divine fire, if there is someone in the entire family who can control divine fire, then it is only you, of course, this is just my meaning, not the will of the old man or your father, I want to ask you, are you willing to try to accept the power of divine fire?" ”
"Do I have a choice?" Zhou Fan smiled bitterly and asked: "The chess god king came before, obviously to recruit you, since you agreed, there must be something big, so you are worried that something will happen, and you want to hand over the divine fire to me, right!" ”
"Clever, worthy of the smartest successor in our family!" Zhuge Huoyan nodded with satisfaction, then walked towards the entrance of the cave, and said: "I'll leave it to you next, and it will no longer be my territory from now on!" ”
Looking at the other party's departing figure, Zhou Fan knew in his heart that this was handing over the foundation of the family to himself, and he himself knew better that he was not Zhuge Feng, he was Zhou Fan, so he had to consider whether to accept Shenhuo or not.
"What? Do you feel like you don't want to go? Suddenly, not long after Zhuge Huoyan left, Zhuge Jin came to the magma cave and looked at Zhou Fan with a sly look.
"Auntie, why are you here?" Zhou Fan felt a little weak for some reason, and his body involuntarily took a step back.
But who knew that Zhuge Jin was aggressive, continued to step forward, and leaned in front of Zhou Fan, and continued: "You haven't answered my question yet, is it because your conscience is not going?" ”
"I don't know what you mean!"
"Then I'll put it bluntly," Zhuge Jin said in an affirmative tone: "You are not Zhuge Feng!" ”
"Auntie, you're making a bit of a joke!" Zhou Fan pretended to be self-determined.
"Really?" Zhuge Jin sneered: "If you still don't admit it, then I can only report it to the patriarch and eldest brother!" ”
Zhuge Jin turned around and left!
This made Zhou Fan anxious, so he hurriedly grabbed the other party's hand and said, "Auntie, I was wrong, just spare me!" ”
"Hehe, still call me aunt?" Zhuge Jin smiled: "Do you know, just because your aunt betrayed you, the real Zhuge Feng will never call me aunt when there are only two of us, but call me Jin'er!" ”
Groov! Zhou Fan's heart skipped a heavy beat, he didn't understand it until now, in fact, the relationship between this so-called aunt and Zhuge Feng was not so simple in the ordinary sense.
"What? Anything comes to mind? Zhuge Jin continued to probe tentatively.
Zhou Fan smiled bitterly: "You are Zhuge Feng's aunt, aren't you afraid of creating a curse if you do this?" ”
"Damnation?" Zhuge Jin said disdainfully: "That's because outsiders don't know at all, my Zhuge Jin is not the bloodline of the Zhuge family, I am just the daughter recognized by the old man!" ”
