=Episode 29=
It's vastly different.
Our clan's top-notch secret weapon
can threaten the life
of a Grand Soul Master.
Once you craft it,
you'll be pioneering the forging world.
Here's a part of the blueprint
for the top-notch secret weapon,
the Storm Pear Blossom Needles.
Take your time to look at it thoroughly.
(Storm Pear Blossom Needles)
Si Long,
take them to rest.
We still want to explore the auction.
I wonder if you
It will be available tomorrow night.
Titan, aren't you familiar with it?
You take them there tomorrow.
Master.
Please don't bother me.
Young Master,
This Lou Gao
has his own plans.
Showing him a portion of the blueprint
neither discourages his enthusiasm
nor risks leaking it.
It would only leave him wanting more.
It's fine.
After he investigates the blueprint,
he'll change his perceptions
towards the Tang Clan.
By then, I doubt he won't
think of running off.
Moreover, I believe,
with his forging skills,
he'll be a great asset
to the Tang Clan in the future.
Mr. Si Long,
congratulations!
Don't joke around with me.
Our president must've gone amiss.
I'll give him some advice tonight.
He won't.
A blacksmith master
needs to possess skills,
and the most important thing
is his great insight.
Once Lou Gao investigated my blueprint,
he'll discover the potential
of the Tang Clan.
Lou Gao has been focused
solely on forging, and nothing else.
For years, the affairs in the Blacksmiths Guild
have been handled by you.
This time, it's perfect
for you to help out.
(Purchase List)
(50 jin of tungsten steel, 10 tons
of refined iron)
Vice President Titan,
is this real?
Ten tons of refined iron?
I've never seen anyone buy
that much refined iron at once.
Alright,
we'll purchase it at full price.
But we hope you can gather
all the required metals for us quickly.
No problem.
You traveled from afar,
let me treat you to a meal.
I have a group of friend who has
just checked in at the Tie's Inn.
Why don't we go and meet them together?
Sure.
This way.
Alright.
Let's go.
Boss, where can I find
those high-paying orders
out of town that you just mentioned?
My brother is also a blacksmith
and wants to earn some money.
Fatty.
San.
Grand Master Si Long,
please come in.
Senior Si Long,
this is Ma Hongjun,
one of my friends.
Fatty.
He's Senior Si Long.
Gather everyone downstairs.
We'll get a private room for dinner.
Senior Si Long is treating us.
Are we having the usual spot?
Um
I'm sorry.
Grand Master Si Long,
that room has already
been occupied today.
But, the room is already reserved
long-term by the Blacksmiths Guild
for hosting
important guests.
I know,
but
But what?
It's all because the room
has been reserved by me.
Myles,
what do you mean?
Grand Master Si Long
is a Grand Master Blacksmith.
Do you understand what being
a Grand Master Blacksmith means?
It's still just a blacksmith.
Don't grate on my ears!
I'm famous
for being reasonable.
As long as you convince Lou Gao
to merge the Blacksmiths Guild
into the Martial Soul Hall,
I'll make an exception
and allow you to use one of the rooms.
Myles,
don't forget.
This is Gengxin City,
the Capital of Metal.
Only blacksmiths are
the genuine masters here.
Yes.
But, even the lord of Gengxin City
has to bow to me.
You
Get out of here!
(It seems that Myles
doesn't seem friendly.)
Sir,
that's them
who badmouthed the
Martial Soul Hall on the streets.
Senior Si Long,
are these ladies
coming along with you?
What are they for?
For you a blacksmith?
No way!
I can't stand this anymore.
Today,
you ladies come home with me.
Let me offer some advice for you.
I've tried so hard.
How come I have no killing power at all?
I can't control my body anymore.
Stop embarrassing yourself here!
It's you again.
Aren't you the leader of the
Tribe of Strength, Titan?
Yes, I am.
If you want to oppose
against the Blacksmith Guild
and the Tribe of Strength,
I, Titan will accompany you for that.
Yes, it's me again.
Any opinion?
You're not a blacksmith.
Why are you so stubborn?
Aren't you afraid
that the Martial Soul Hall
will ruin the Tribe of Strength?
(This Myles is far too arrogant.)
(I wish I could throw him down
with the Eight Flinging.)
(Don't rush!)
(It's not time to deal with him yet.)
Elder Token!
Greetings, Elder!
Greetings, Elder!
We had no idea the Elder was here.
Please forgive us.
Please forgive us.
We'll discuss your punishment later.
Get out of here by rolling!
Understood!
Wait!
Are you deaf?
The Elder said get
out of here by rolling!
Understood.
What are you waiting for?
Don't you know how to do it?
Shall I teach you?
Elder, they are newcomers.
They're just too inexperienced.
No worries.
Let me be their example!
Get down!
Please guide us!
Let's go.
Let's go.
Carry on.
(What a guy who changes
with the wind!)
(No worries.)
(I'll make them pay in the future.)
Alright.
It's just a farce!
Si Long,
hurry and take us to eat.
Everyone is hungry now.
Wait a moment.
You guys
are from the Martial Soul Hall?
Senior Si Long,
let's eat first.
This,
I'll explain to you later.
Sir, do we still need to roll ourselves?
Hold on, when did our Martial Soul Hall
have such a young Elder?
Is it possible?
I really don't know.
Sir,
do you think that the guy
is messing with us?
Could that token be fake?
Wait.
Do you think I'm so dumb
that I can't tell the difference
between a fake and a real token?
I dare not.
But, if the token is real,
and if Her Holiness did send
the Elder here to Gengxin City,
why didn't she inform you in advance?
Plus, he is mingling
with the Tribe of Strength
and the Blacksmith Guild.
It just doesn't make sense.
The token may be real,
but the person might not be.
Let's return
and draft a letter to Her Holiness.
We'll know whether he's real or fake
once we ask.
(Tie's Inn)
So, you're the son
of Grand Haotian Master.
I apologize for my disrespect.
Senior Si Long, there's no need
for such formalities.
I only said that
to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
Kid, don't worry.
We have no ties
to the Martial Soul Hall.
If there's any connection to say,
it's only hostility.
San,
why didn't you
teach those useless guys
a lesson just now?
That Myles was so rampant!
We should teach them
an unforgettable lesson.
Fatty, your brain is not functioning again.
We haven't started yet,
how could we go
against the locals?
That Myles would probably
pinpoint the blame
on the Blacksmith Guild.
By then, Si Long and the others
would get into big trouble.
Ao,
what's there to fear
as San has the Elder Token?
After all, I'm not the genuine
Elder of the Martial Soul Hall.
That Myles will definitely try
every way possible
to figure out who I am.
So, for now, what we need to do
is to get our plan done here quickly
and leave as soon as possible.
So, we're just letting
Myles off like that?
How is that possible?
Don't you know San yet?
So, San,
do you
already have a plan
to handle that Myles?
Don't act rashly.
Senior Si Long,
can you tell us about the connection
between the Blacksmith Guild
and the Martial Soul Hall?
They're incompatible
just like the water and fire.
Uncle Titan knows this well.
Back then,
Myles brought people
and created chaos for us.
Although he didn't succeed,
a grudge was formed.
After that, he repeatedly brought
the Martial Soul Hall people
to oppress the Blacksmith Guild,
making trouble for us everywhere.
Soon after,
blacksmiths in the city
began disappearing.
Everyone was terrified,
no one dared leave their homes.
So, you suspect
that the Martial Soul Hall is behind
the disappearance of blacksmiths?
I'm certain it's them.
After many blacksmiths disappeared,
someone spotted the people
from the Martial Soul Hall
sneakily transporting weapons
out of the city at night.
Other than the missing blacksmiths,
who else could be
forging weapons for them?
Did Lou not take action?
Of course, he did.
Master led us from the Blacksmith Guild
to confront the Martial Soul Hall
for the missing people.
But, the eyewitness
was too scared to testify.
Without evidence,
we could not
Why do you need evidence?
Just break in and find the people!
Uncle Titan,
you should know our situation better.
Although our master and the rest of us
are Great Soul Master and Soul Saint,
we've always
focused on forging.
If it comes to fighting,
we may not be their match.
We also don't dare
spread this news lightly.
Otherwise, it would only make it harder to
approach Myles and his people in the future.
(No wonder we hardly see)
(any strong local men
since entering the city.)
(The Martial Soul Hall
is secretly producing weapons.)
(Bi Bi Dong must be
plotting something else.)
When I first arrived in Gengxin City,
I sensed something was amiss.
That's why I wanted
to learn more about the situation.
The disappearance of blacksmiths
is something we can't ignore.
But, we can't alert the enemy either.
So, you're saying
you want to help us find
the missing blacksmiths?
We need
to investigate further first.
For now, you just focus
on helping us to locate
the ores and metals we need.
Also, please arrange for us
to attend tomorrow's auction.
Got it. Leave it to me.
(Tie's Inn)
Ao and Si Long are busy
checking the purchase list.
I believe that the Blacksmith Guild
can quickly gather everything we need.
Indeed.
San,
when do you plan to take action
against the Martial Soul Hall?
A dark and stormy night
is just perfect for action.
I love taking action at night.
We'll take action
after tomorrow night's auction.
Great!
It's been a while
since I've performed myself.
Elder Titan,
you're the vice president
of the Blacksmith Guild.
If you fight against
the Martial Soul Hall,
it might cause trouble
to the Blacksmith Guild.
We need to take action discreetly.
Just me,
Fatty,
and Ao
will be enough.
Yes.
I'll stay back to take care of Wu.
Good.
Cousin San, what about me?
Do you assign a task for me?
Of course.
It's something only you can do.
You will go investigate the
Martial Soul Hall with Fatty tomorrow,
and figure out
what their current situation is,
ensuring that our plan
goes smoothly.
Master,
as per your instructions,
I've gathered part of the
Martial Soul Hall's forces into a troop
and awaited your next orders.
Great!
You're fully in charge
of this operation.
Please work carefully with her.
I trust
that you won't disappoint me.
I will do my utmost.
In these few days,
I'll go into a crucial
stage of my cultivation.
Unless it's urgent,
don't disturb me.
Understood.
The Holy Lady sent a message.
The soul masters have gathered.
Your Highness, please get
ready for the next step.
How much longer does he have?
Your Highness,
the poison has penetrated
into His Majesty's bone.
He doesn't have long.
I can't waste more time on Xue Beng.
Has the news been released?
Yes.
Great!
If you keep pushing yourself like this,
your back injury won't heal.
It's just a small injury.
It's nothing compared to Father's life.
Has Tang San finished
developing the antidote?
I've checked the situation.
The little devils have left the city.
Before leaving, he made arrangements
for reliable people to continue
developing the antidote.
I'm just afraid Father
can't wait until it's ready.
Send someone to find more ways,
and see if there's any other news.
Here, take a look.
High-quality ores!
Abundant supply!
Excellent quality at a fair price!
No deceit, guaranteed for everyone!
This is the largest ore trading market
in Gengxin City.
The ores here
haven't been appraised
by the Blacksmith Guild,
so the prices are cheaper,
but it's also easier to get scammed.
In my opinion, it's better to go to
the Blacksmith Guild's trading hall
to buy ores that have
been appraised.
That's more reliable.
Since Ao is there
sorting the ore purchases,
both of you can pick it together.
Thank you, Senior Si Long,
for considering for us.
But, the appraised ores
are far too expensive.
As the Tang Clan's treasurer,
I must save wherever I can for San.
But,
please allow me to be frank,
even experts can sometimes
misjudge the ores here.
Although I can help you inspect them,
I can't guarantee
you'll be fully satisfied.
Take a look.
Let's go over there and check it out.
I want this one.
Boss.
1,000 gold soul coins.
Cut it for me.
Hold on.
You need to cut from this spot for me.
Sure.
Slice the stone,
and fortune rise.
Good!
Rise!
Rise!
Rise!
Rise!
Rise!
Rise!
One cut to heaven,
one to hell!
You will have it next time!
Boss,
your stone
Sigh.
What a bad luck!
It's a dud!
That's
how it is here.
If it's a correct one,
its value multiple dozen times.
If it's a miss,
it's not worth a single copper coin.
Boss,
this stone is useless now.
Can I take it away?
Who says it's useless?
If the buyer doesn't want it,
the stone reverts to me.
If you want it,
you've got to pay.
Miss Ning,
this stone is nothing but a dud.
Oh, so this young lady
is a friend of Mr. Si Long.
Mr. Si Long,
I run a small business.
If this young lady truly likes it,
she can have it
with just one gold soul coin.
One gold soul coin?
Deal!
Thank you, young lady.
Miss Ning,
if you need this kind
of discarded raw stone,
I can provide it to you for free.
That vendor just wanted to rip you off.
Senior Si Long, don't worry.
I might have just snagged a great deal.
Why are you smiling?
Look!
It was just a discarded material.
How could you possibly
see what's inside?
A soul master with the
Qibao Amber Pagoda Martial Soul
have an extremely
strong appraisal ability.
You have such an ability?
You're practically a born ore appraiser!
No wonder Chief Tang
sent you here to purchase ores.
I should thank the previous buyer.
Let's go.
Today, I'm going to stock up
on the clan's treasury!
These armors were shipped
out from Gengxin City.
(They're heading toward the
direction of Tiandou City)
It seems Bi Bi Dong is preparing
to take action against Tiandou.
We need to go back instantly.
Hurry up!
Hurry up!
Stay in line!
Go!
Go!
Hurry up!
The weapons and armor here
are exactly the same as those in the
Martial Soul Hall of Xingluo City.
It seems that Myles
has made a lot of money.
Hurry up!
Be quicker!
Hurry up!
Look!
Help me!
Uncle,
please save me!
Who's there?
On alert!
Something's wrong!
Someone's in the back courtyard!
Let's go!
Take him away!
I'll go distract them.
Xiang.
Trust me.
Be careful.
Delusion.
Split up and chase them!
Go!
Sir!
Sir!
Those identical women suddenly disappeared
right before our eyes.
Oh no!
That's a soul skill!
They discovered the bodies.
Should we report to the lord?
Quickly move the bodies away and send
more people
to guard the back courtyard.
If anyone leaks today's events,
I'll skin them alive!
Alright! Follow me!
(Tie's Inn)
Thank you for saving me.
It's nothing.
Your wounds have been medicated,
and you'll recover quickly.
How did you end up
at the Martial Soul Hall?
Where are your parents?
My dad is a blacksmith.
He was taken by them to work a year ago.
They saw I could do chores too,
so they took me along
to cook for the blacksmiths.
People there always dying.
My dad was afraid
I wouldn't survive either,
so
Smith,
you must live
and escape from here.
Run as far as you can, understand?
Dad,
I don't want to leave you.
I don't want.
No,
you have to go.
Only by leaving can you survive.
But I don't
Hurry up! There's no time!
Father!
What are you doing?
Father!
Move aside!
No!
Father!
Let me out!
Run faster!
Help!
Hang these two
here tonight
as a warning, and throw them
into the corpse pile tomorrow.
Kid,
you've been in the
Martial Soul Hall for over a year.
Did you hear anything about their plans?
For example,
what are those armors for?
My dad and the blacksmith uncles said
Her Holiness is
preparing for something big.
A few months ago,
all the weapons and armor
in the warehouse were shipped away.
Not long after, the
soul master who oversees us
were discussing about the
clans being annihilated.
Then,
they received new orders
from Her Holiness.
My dad and the others started
working non-stop again.
Oh, right!
The night before I escaped,
my dad said another batch
of armor was being shipped out.
Her Holiness must be
planning something evil again,
am I right?
Kid,
you're smart.
Your guess is probably correct.
We need to get the plan in Gengxin City
done as soon as possible.
We need to discuss this
with the master and Uncle Ning.
I think
something serious is about to happen.
(Fatty and Xiang saved the little kid.)
(I think they've alerted the enemy.)
(We must be quick and decisive
for tonight's auction.)
(We can't give them
a chance to retaliate.)
(I won't let them get away with this.)
This is the map I sketched
of the Martial Soul Hall
in Gengxin City.
Here's the armory.
This is the back courtyard,
and further back is the forging room.
We broke into the back courtyard today.
They will definitely
strengthen their security here.
When you go to rescue the blacksmiths,
you must be very careful.
No wonder you're
from the Tribe of Agility,
you investigated the place in detail.
It's just
the specialty of our tribe.
It's nothing.
You did great.
With this information,
we can be quick and decisive tonight.
Black iron ore for sale, cheap!
Buy more, get a discount!
Take a look!
Black iron ore for sale, cheap!
Buy more, get a discount!
Good things!
Boss,
if I buy several pieces,
can I get a discount?
Of course!
How many do you want, young lady?
Five pieces.
I want
this.
This one,
and also these few.
Alright.
The total is five gold soul coins.
Make way!
Step aside!
Give me the protection fee.
Sir,
I just paid yesterday.
Yesterday was yesterday. Today is today.
How outrageous!
This is Xingluo's ore trading market.
What gives the Martial Soul Hall
the authority to charge fees?
What a coincidence!
How coincidentally!
Are you all here for a stroll?
The talented young elder
didn't come with you?
The elder's friends are my friends.
But I don't think I've met
this elder before.
Do you want to explain?
There's nothing to explain.
But, you should
explain what qualifies the Martial Soul Hall
to be so over and extort money here.
Misunderstanding!
Hmm,
Grand Master Si Long,
it's all your fault.
You came with this young lady.
Why didn't you introduce her properly?
Half of this street's
management rights
belong to the Martial Soul Hall.
If it weren't for the city lord
personally asking me to help manage it,
who'd want this thankless job?
Am I right?
You tell me, am I right?
Yes.
Sir, you managed here really well.
The security here has improved greatly.
What else?
We
We pay willingly.
You see?
Don't worry.
If you don't have enough money with you,
you can use
these worthless stones instead.
This useless thing is also fine for me.
I'm just so softhearted
and easy to negotiate with.
Move it!
Hold on!
I already wanted these iron ores.
Are you picking a fight with me?
Business operates on
a first-come, first-served basis.
As the manager here,
you should uphold the rules.
I am the rule.
You
Even though you're the manager here,
you don't understand ores at all.
Taking this back
would just waste resources.
I
don't know about ores?
Are you challenging me?
It's just the truth.
You don't believe?
I bet that this is
the most valuable piece
in this entire pile of ore.
Because it contains the iron essence.
Can you pick out something like this?
Although she is young,
she is quite bold.
Today, I'll show you
what I'm capable of.
Which one is the most expensive?
This one, sir.
Open the two of them at once!
Open them!
It's real!
It's real!
How is that possible?
Yeah,
how is this possible?
The one you opened has nothing in it!
That's just my mistake.
You just have good luck today.
But,
there's a win or lose in gambling.
How about this?
We go for another round.
But, we'll have a little extra at stake.
Dare to play?
Why not?
How do you want it to be carried out?
We each pick one ore from this street,
the one we think is most valuable.
Then,
open it up here
and see whose is worth more.
The vendors on this street
are all experts.
They can serve as witnesses.
If you win,
you can take any ore on this street.
If I win,
I will take you away with me
and do what I want.
Fine!
How dare you agree to this!
Let's do it!
But, add one more condition.
If I win, you can't collect
the protection fees here anymore.
You've already agreed to my terms
so I'll agree with yours.
I'll let you pick first.
Go ahead
and bring me the 'King of Ore'
from this street.
Myles,
you're cheating.
Why am I cheating?
The conditions are clear.
I pick what I think
is the most valuable ore.
What's unfair about that?
Senior Si Long.
That's fine.
He's just using
the rules to his advantage.
The 'King of Ore' here
is the Five Colors Shining Stones.
I guarantee
you won't find
anything rarer
in this market anymore.
Sir.
Here you go.
Take a look.
Truly worthy of the title 'King of Ore'.
Do you like this?
Take it.
We're done here.
Let's go home.
Don't rush off, sir.
It's my turn now.
You want a sense of ritual?
I understand.
Go ahead,
pick.
I pick
This one!
Miss Ning,
this isn't the time for jokes!
That's just an ordinary piece of ore.
Let me take you to another place
and pick another one.
No, I choose this one!
My dear Long,
you have no sense at all!
She's doing this on purpose,
with the intention to follow me back.
Stop meddling!
Boss,
please chip off a small piece for me.
Let's make sure he loses
fair and square.
Yes.
Let's follow the procedure.
Chip it off.
Young lady,
are you sure you want it
chipped from here?
This is Cold Iron Essence.
What iron essence?
You just simply name it now.
Cold Iron Essence!
It is Cold Iron Essence!
This piece of Cold Iron Essence
was hidden inside the ordinary ore,
making it hard to detect,
Sir,
do you believe me now?
Even if it is an iron essence,
how could a black rock is worth more than
the Five Colors Shining Stones?
Sir,
of the same weight,
the Cold Iron Essence
is ten times more valuable
than the Five Colors Shining Stones.
This is incredibly rare.
As far as I know,
there're less than five kilograms
of it in Gengxin City.
This piece weighs
several dozen kilograms,
making it worth a fortune.
Well, thank you for being so humble.
I win.
It's mine.
I'll take it now.
Don't be rushed.
How could you
have such good luck?
I now
suspect you and the vendor
are working together
to scam the customers
and disrupt the market.
So, I'll take this piece back with me
as evidence for further investigation.
And you too.
You're a liar!
You have to come with me!
Let's go!
Who dares?
We're here on orders
from the elder to collect ores here.
What elder?
The elder from the Martial Soul Hall?
The Martial Soul Hall
has plenty of resources.
Why would they need
something inferior like this?
It seems that you're unaware
of the Martial Soul Hall's rules.
What our Elder
needs every time,
he only needs to send word
to the branch halls
and we'll collect it
before sending it there.
There's no need to pick
piece by piece like you're doing here.
Your branch halls
have been skimming profits
off the ore trade, and substituting
the good ones with inferior products,
do you think the elders won't notice?
They've turned a blind eye
because of the
Supreme Pontiff's leniency.
But if you insist on doing this,
I might
just expose all the works of darkness.
Fine, you want the ore, right?
Take them with you.
Wait!
One more thing.
Should I demonstrate
how to leave by rolling again?
From now on,
you're not allowed
to bully the vendors here.
Alright, small matter.
And also, no more protection fees!
That's great!
Is this real?
Just admit defeat that you lose the bet.
They have long been the vendors here.
They can all testify to what happened.
I can testify!
Me too!
Me too!
I can also testify!
We all can testify!
Me too!
I can testify!
I can testify!
Me too!
We all can testify!
Let's go.
Thank you, young lady.
Thank you, young lady.
Thank you, young lady.
Young lady,
these years,
Myles has been oppressing us
here in the ore market.
Yeah!
He's been robbing us blind!
Life has been so hard for us.
You defeated him,
and canceled the protection fees.
How can we ever repay you?
Everyone,
no need to repay me.
We just couldn't stand injustice.
Especially
against bullies like Myles!
Great!
Well said!
Good!
Young lady, look at my stall here.
You can take any stone for free.
I'll give them to you.
Yes, young lady.
Thank you for helping us
vent our frustration.
Exactly.
It's my fault.
I shouldn't have used
carrots to teach you.
(Why am I always obsessed with eating?)
(It seems we can't use food.)
(Should we change something else?)
(Someone's coming!)
Hey you,
I want all the blueprints.
No problem.
Didn't I already tell you?
Once you return with the Tang Clan,
you will see the rest blueprints.
At that point,
we'll need your expertise.
Kid,
stop lying to me.
I've carefully examined
the blueprints you gave me.
This so-called magical weapon,
its materials are rare,
and the chances of crafting it are slim.
What's the use
of having a good blueprint?
You have to make it real
by inventing it.
Otherwise, it's just a waste of paper.
Yeah.
You're right, Elder.
The materials
for the Storm Pear Blossom Needles
are indeed extremely demanding.
But once crafted,
it'll be an unprecedented divine weapon.
The Tang Clan will spare no effort
to help you invent it,
so you can become
a legendary craftsman like no other.
You think I'm a child?
I'm too old
to fall for your empty promises.
San,
we're back.
Master,
Miss Ning won a bet with Myles
over ore appraisal,
and forced him to cancel the protection
fees for the market vendors.
The vendors are absolutely thrilled.
It seems that Myles
suffered a real defeat today.
Rongrong,
did you find any rare ores?
I just heard Elder Lou
say materials are scarce.
I wonder how about
these materials I found.
Cold Iron Essence!
It is Cold Iron Essence!
It's such a large piece!
How impressive!
The appraisal skills of the
Qibao Amber Sect are truly exceptional.
Chief, I plan to use this Cold Iron Essence
to craft the Storm Pear Blossom Needles.
What do you think?
These materials are just sufficient.
This Cold Iron Essence is not usable.
Its hardness is fine,
but its toughness is too poor.
If we use it for the mechanisms,
it would ruin under excessive force.
What a shame!
Why can't we craft
the Storm Pear Blossom Needles
using this Cold Iron Essence?
How can I ever craft
the Storm Pear Blossom Needles soon?
If I can only imagine it
but never craft it,
I'd rather die.
Master, please don't be like that!
Let me die!
Elder,
please calm down.
Don't be rushed.
You can make this!
This is an exceptional secret weapon
even more powerful
than the Storm Pear Blossom Needles.
And, the Cold Iron Essence
happens to be
one of its three core materials.
Are you insane?
This is such a top-secret blueprint!
How could you just
give it to me like this?
Since you've agreed
to join the Tang Clan,
and I'm the chief,
I can't be skimped on this.
You have such a deep obsession
with crafting weapons.
I shouldn't just leave you
and watch you lose yourself to despair.
I'm insane.
And you're a fool.
We're perfect to be in the same clan!
Chief, don't worry.
I, Lou Gao, swear
to craft this ultimate
weapon for you.
Sorry to interrupt.
Actually, I found another material.
I've never seen it before,
but I believe
it's the most valuable
of all these materials.
What kind of metal is this?
It's incredibly tough.
I've been forging my whole life,
but I've never encountered
something this strong.
Even my unbreakable Diamond Chisel
shattered instantly against it.
Amazing Truly amazing.
But alas,
my Diamond Chisel is ruined.
I'll need to find another tool.
If I'm not mistaken,
this is the core of the Deep Sea Silver.
It's exactly what's needed
to craft the Storm Pear Blossom Needles.
The core of the Deep Sea Silver!
I never thought
I'd see such a rare material
in my lifetime.
If I can craft
the Storm Pear Blossom Needles,
I'll have no regrets in life.
You will succeed.
As for the materials you need,
the Tang Clan will ensure
everything is provided.
With that promise,
I'll join the Tang Clan.
For making these divine secret weapons,
I won't accept any reward.
However,
I have one small request.
Please go ahead.
On these legendary crafts,
aside from the Tang Clan's name,
I want my name, Lou Gao,
engraved as well.
No problem.
In the future, any secret weapon
with your name on it
will be the Tang Clan's masterpiece.
Deal!
For the Storm Pear Blossom Needles,
I'll start crafting right away.
All these
Chief,
it seems we're still
lacking some materials.
Elder, you're worthy
of being the God Blacksmith.
You can even determine
the materials needed
just by looking at the blueprints.
But besides the materials,
the blueprints also stated
many intricate aspects.
You could discuss and study them
with Elder Titan.
Today,
Rongrong and I will head
to the auction place.
I'm confident
we'll acquire some materials there.
Alright.
I need to remind you,
although the auction is held
by the Blacksmith Guild,
the prices are fair to everyone,
so it all depends on
how full your pockets are.
Thank you for the reminder, Elder.
By the way,
I also have a personal favor
to request.
May I borrow your forging table?
