Huang Yueling’s eyes gleamed when Lu Yu uttered “divine artifact.” Her gaze fixed on the sword in his hand, a mixture of curiosity and awe swirling within her.

“A divine artifact!” She exclaimed, stepping closer to examine it with meticulous care. “It’s truly extraordinary. What kind of abilities does it possess?”

A pair of wide, expectant eyes looked at Lu Yu.

Lu Yu smoothly sheathed the Star Piercing Demonic Sword. “Explaining its full capabilities would take a significant amount of time. Besides, that explanation becomes unnecessary if you’re no longer interested in sparring.”

“Spar with you?” Huang Yueling chuckled, spreading her hands helplessly. “Of course not! You wield a divine artifact, a treasure beyond compare. Fighting you would be like a butterfly challenging a raging storm.”

“So, tell me truthfully, did you truly slay the giant crocodile? By the looks of it, only a divine artifact could achieve such a feat!”

Lu Yu met her gaze steadily. “I’ve been clear since the beginning. I did defeat the giant crocodile. There’s no need to dwell on it.”

Huang Yueling took a deep breath, studying Lu Yu with renewed interest. In this unassuming manor, she’d encountered a man wielding a divine artifact, a rarity in the vast Ten Thousand Dragon Country. The sheer improbability of it all left her slightly breathless.

“You’re an enigma, truly,” she mused. “Without a doubt, you possess the qualifications to be Jiang Ling’s master. Compared to you, my expertise pales in comparison.”

Lu Yu waved a dismissive hand. “Nonsense. While my strength is undeniable, my knowledge of dragon taming is woefully inadequate. In fact, that’s one of the reasons I came to the Ten Thousand Dragon Country—to learn.” Huang Yueling’s eyes widened in surprise. “Really?” she breathed excitedly. “Absolutely,” Lu Yu confirmed. “There’s no point in lying.”

A slow nod escaped Huang Yueling’s lips. “Well then,” she declared, “I wouldn’t want to waste this opportunity. Shall we begin the lesson?”

“Lead the way,” Lu Yu agreed readily.

Huang Yueling turned with a flourish and headed toward the study room, Jiang Ling and Lu Yu trailing close behind. Jiang Ling couldn’t help but steal glances at Lu Yu, her curiosity piqued.

A genuine divine artifact! It was a concept she’d only encountered in fantastical stories, and now, here it was, held casually by her master.

“So, it really is a divine artifact,” she whispered in awe. “I’ve never seen one before. I’ve only heard legends about their immense power.”

“Naturally,” Lu Yu replied. “Without it, defeating the crocodile wouldn’t have been possible.”

A frown creased Jiang Ling’s brow. “But… I remember you not using that sword during the fight with the giant crocodile.”

Lu Yu playfully shushed her, a knowing smile gracing his lips.

Jiang Ling’s eyes widened in realization. “So you have two?!” She blurted out before quickly clamping her hand over her mouth.

Lu Yu chuckled softly. “Focus on your studies, Jiang Ling. There’s much you need to learn, and seriousness is key from now on.”

With that, the unlikely trio—a young disciple, a renowned Dragon Trainer, and a mysterious master wielding a divine artifact—entered the study room.

Jiang Ling, however, couldn’t shake the image of the second, hidden weapon, a secret Lu Yu carried close to his chest.

Just then, the tranquility was shattered as the manor’s butler approached Lu

“Mr. Lu,” the butler announced respectfully, “a guest awaits outside. He claims to know you and wishes to discuss a matter with you.”

“Who is it?” Lu Yu inquired, turning his attention to the butler.

“His name is Li Tianen,” the butler informed him. “A prominent figure within the city. He seems rather urgent.”

Lu Yu furrowed his brow thoughtfully. “Li Tianen? What business could he possibly have with me? Could this be trouble?”

A moment of contemplation passed before he spoke again. “Bring him in.”

“As you wish,” the butler acknowledged with a slight bow before turning to usher in the unexpected visitor.

“Li Tianen?” Huang Yueling inquired, raising an eyebrow at Lu Yu. “Isn’t he a general in the city? I’ve heard whispers of his impressive strength. Do you know him? You haven’t been here long, so it’s unlikely, right?”

Lu Yu offered a wry smile. “Knowing him isn’t exactly the issue. He seems to think I’ve somehow diminished his power and status, constantly challenging me in various ways. I’d rather avoid the whole thing, honestly.”

Huang Yueling let out a soft chuckle. “Perhaps he’s unaware of your little divine artifact secret. Otherwise, competition wouldn’t even be a thought in his mind.”

Just then, Li Tianen entered the room with a brisk stride. Clad in a sharp white suit, he exuded an air of practiced charm as he approached Lu Yu.

“Lu Yu,” he declared, his voice booming, “rumors abound about you seeking a disciple. Are you truly qualified to take on such a responsibility?”

He continued, his gaze flickering to Jiang Ling, “And the Jiang family? Taking her in as a disciple is quite the gamble. Jiang Ling, a renowned genius in Skyplume City; are you sure you aren’t here to make a fool of yourself?” Lu Yu eyed him coolly. “What exactly is your point here, Li Tianen?”

“Nothing of consequence,” Li Tianen shrugged nonchalantly. “Simply a change of heart. I’ve decided I’d be the perfect master for Jiang Ling!”

With a confident flourish, he turned to Jiang Ling. “Miss,” he addressed her, a dazzling smile plastered on his face, “wouldn’t you prefer my guidance?”

Jiang Ling instinctively took a step back, her eyes flitting nervously between Li

Tianen and Lu Yu. Although the Jiang family held a respectable position in Skyplume City, they couldn’t compete with Li Tianen’s influence. Discontent simmered within her, but fear kept her voice trapped.

Li Tianen pressed on, weaving a web of promises. “Become my disciple, and your cultivation path will be smooth sailing. Imagine the respect of everyone in Skyplume City, with boundless resources at your disposal! With my social standing, limitless strength and potential are practically guaranteed!”

His words were laced with self-interest, a veiled attempt to outshine Lu Yu in Zhao Qingya’s eyes. He craved to prove his superiority, to establish himself as the stronger man.

Jiang Ling, however, mustered her courage and spoke, her voice trembling slightly. “I… I already have a master. Lu Yu is my teacher, and I’m his disciple.

He treats me very well.”

Lu Yu simply spread his hands with a sardonic smile. “There you have it, Li Tianen.”

Undeterred, Li Tianen locked eyes with Lu Yu, his jaw clenched tight. “So, you persist in opposing me, Lu Yu!”

“Opposing you? Who arrived first, might I ask?” Lu Yu countered with a hint of amusement in his voice.

Li Tianen’s fists bunched up. “You came to Skyplume City and flaunted yourself in front of Zhao Qingya! That’s how you oppose me! Everything else pales in comparison.”

“Is Zhao Qingya the reason for all this fuss?” Lu Yu raised an eyebrow.

“Nonsense!” Li Tianen scoffed. “She’s beautiful, intelligent, and holds immense power. Winning her favor would grant me a future beyond Skyplume City! The entire Ten Thousand Dragon Country would be within my grasp! But then you appeared, ruining it all!”

Fists clenched, he pivoted towards Huang Yueling, causing a sudden shift in his demeanor. “Professor Huang,” he greeted with a charming smile, “a pleasure to see you again! You look even more stunning than before.”

Huang Yueling offered a polite smile in return. “Indeed, it’s been a while, Li Tianen.”

“It’s only fitting for celebrities like us to mingle,” he continued pointedly, his gaze flickering between Lu Yu and Jiang Ling. “Perhaps not with… lesser company.”

Huang Yueling could only manage an awkward smile, choosing not to engage further..
