Chapter 238: Weapon Forging Operation



Fortunately, Xue Jin changed the topic. “If that crazy woman stands up for you, even if you destroyed Huang Jianxiong’s cultivation base, it’s not a big deal. There are many youngsters in those aristocratic clans. You will understand in the future that it’s not easy being the child of an aristocratic clan. Often, siblings kill and scheme against each other for power.”

After a pause, he continued, “Huang Jianxiong, who ranks seventh within the clan, is not actually a direct descendant. Even if you did kill him, as long as someone is willing to come forward to help you, the big problem will be turned into a little one and the little problem will become no problem.”

Lin Xun nodded. He had also heard that the more powerful a clan was, the more cruel the internal conflicts were. It was common to see siblings of the same clan kill one another to obtain more resources.

“However, having said that, it is still best for you to be careful. To the aristocratic clan descendants, your identity isn’t particularly remarkable yet you have crippled one of their comrades. They won’t easily let go of the matter.” Xue Jin reminded him.

Lin Xun sneered, “So what if my identity isn’t remarkable? Those guys just want to maintain their so-called dignity and face. If they really won’t let the matter go, I won’t mind killing more people.”

Xue Jin nodded and didn’t comment.

In truth, deep down in his heart, he really admired Lin Xun’s ruthlessness. He would kill whoever provoked him regardless of which aristocratic clan they were from!

”Of course,” Lin Xun changed the topic. “Before I repair the Ancient Law Ocarina, Granny Feng won’t watch them kill me and do nothing, and that is more than enough.”

Xue Jin chucked. “Then I’m curious, when will you finish repairing the Ancient Law Ocarina?”

Lin Xun grinned. “It‘s impossible to say.”

Xue Jin burst into laughter again. He gave Lin Xun a thumbs up and complimented, “Amazing, you are using that crazy woman’s protection as a weapon. Even I have to admire your courage.”

Lin Xun looked perplexed. “Am I?”

“Don\'t pretend! Do you really think I don’t know what you’re thinking? I reckon that you won’t be finished repairing the Ancient Law Ocarina before the provincial examination!”

With a grin, Lin Xun got up and headed into his room. “You said it, I never admitted to it.”

Xue Jin snorted. “Given how you are, when you move your butt I know what shit you want to do.”

“So vulgar!” Lin Xun rolled his eyes and slammed the door shut.

……

Meanwhile, in a quiet courtyard in Jade Leaf Pavilion, a charming and sweet laughter echoed like the sounds of heaven.

Liu Qingyan laughed to the extent that her shoulders were shaking and her eyes curved like crescent moons. “I didn’t think…I didn’t think Young Master Lin Xun would be so cunning. It’s the first time I’ve seen Granny so angry. Haha, this is interesting.”

Liu Qingyan indeed didn’t expect Lin Xun to be so cunning. He made Granny Feng have no choice but to suffer silently.

The youngsters who Liu Qingyan had met in the past were all graceful, calm, modest and polite. Every one of them was one of the most outstanding.

Only Lin Xun seemed handsome, gentle and harmless on the surface but turned out to be so cunning. He even made Granny Feng suffer a huge loss, which wasn’t achievable to ordinary people.

However, when Liu Qingyan noticed that Granny Feng looked a little embarrassed, she did her best to curb her laughter and said, “Granny, sorry you had to suffer.”

“I don’t mind suffering but since that kid tried to trick me, if I don’t teach him a lesson, he will likely become even more dishonest.”

Liu Qingyan couldn’t help laughing again. She said teasingly, “Yes, he needs to be taught a lesson. How dare he make Granny so angry. He’s been very bad.”

Granny Feng glared at Liu Qingyan. “I’m not joking. Miss, you have to be extra careful. That bastard is very cunning. In my opinion, if he isn’t taught a lesson, he might not properly repair the Ancient Law Ocarina.”

“Didn’t you already promise to pay him?”

Granny Feng sighed. “Miss, you have misjudged that little bastard. In my opinion, he will definitely help you repair the Ancient Law Ocarina, but it may take a while.”

Liu Qingyan became more perplexed. “Why?”

Granny Feng sneered. “It’s very simple, the kid is worried that people will give him trouble since he destroyed Huang Jianxiong\'s cultivation, and as long as he hasn’t repaired the Ancient Law Ocarina, I will not let him die. Given how cunning he is, he will no doubt take advantage of this fact and use me as his shield. So, Miss, do you think he will repair the Ancient Law Ocarina any time soon?”

“This is a way for Young Master Lin Xun to protect himself. After all, he is different from the aristocratic clan descendants. He has no choice but to do this to avoid trouble.”

Granny Feng suddenly became wary. “Miss, why are you looking out for the kid? You have only met once, don’t tell me...”

Liu Qingyan blushed. “Granny, this is human nature!. It’s not as complicated as you think it is.”

Granny Feng nodded. “Then I don’t need to worry.”

“Granny, how do you plan to teach Young Master Lin Xun a lesson?” Liu Qingyan asked curiously.

A triumphant look suddenly flashed across Granny Feng’s eyes. “Miss, just wait for the good news. In seven days, someone will teach that kid a lesson. If he can handle it, then I don’t mind being used by him just this once. But if he can’t, he has to properly repair the Ancient Law Ocarina!”

Liu Qingyan said in worry, “Granny, please don’t make things difficult for Young Master Lin Xun. It will be bad for him if you ruin his reputation.”

The corners of Granny Feng’s lips quirked into a light smile. “Don’t worry, Miss. At least he won’t lose his life!”

……

The smile on Lin Xun’s face vanished as he seated himself in the room. Then, a ruminative expression creepy into his eyes.

Many things have happened today, but if I carefully organize them, there are three main things. Firstly, after I destroyed Huang Jianxiong’s cultivation, there might be trouble. Secondly, I need to help Liu Qingyan repair the Ancient Law Ocarina.

The third…

Lin Xun ran his finger down his throat again. He thought of Little Sword Lord Xie Yutang, thinking of how he pressed his sword against his throat.

“If a little insignificant ant pushes his luck, he will no doubt bring disaster to himself!”

This was Xie Yutang’s warning to him. It reeked of arrogance and bone-deep disdain.

Lin Xun fell silent for a long moment. Then, he took a deep breath and restored his usual calm back into his jet-black eyes. He murmured. “One day, I will let you have a taste of your own medicine...”

Chirp—

At that moment, he felt a ripple of movement in the palm of his hand. Jiujiu’s melodious cry rang out before his round body rolled in front of Lin Xun.

A thought struck Lin Xun’s mind. “Jiujiu, you came just in time. Let’s get to work.”

As he was speaking, he brought out the rune materials and rune inks that he had already prepared. He arranged them in an orderly manner.

Now that he was involved in more and more matters, he had to hurry up and customize a blade for himself as soon as possible.

Jiujiu, who possessed the Golden Star Fragment Fire, would no doubt play an important role in forging the blade!

Lin Xun brought out a furnace and walked out of the room with Jiujiu.

It was a first-class furnace called the Nine-Smelting Furnace, which was specifically used to smelt the materials for forging blades.

Lin Xun dumped all the rune materials that he had prepared into the Nine-Smelting Furnace, then he patted Jiujiu’s little butt. “Come, smelt all those things for me.”

Jiujiu looked confused, unable to understand what Lin Xun was saying.

Lin Xun repeatedly gestured with his hands. Only after explaining and pointing at the materials and furnace for a good half of the day did Jiujiu understand him. Its face lit up with excitement and it opened its mouth wide. It spewed out a stream of golden flames, stars faintly glistening within them. It was truly stunning.

It was the Golden Star Fragment Fire, a rare heaven-grade fire!

Rumble—

The Nine Smelting Furnace shook violently as it began to operate. The runes densely distributed around the furnace lit up in a dazzling glow and completely enveloped the rune materials dumped in the furnace.

“Good job!”

Lin Xun praised Jiujiu and made it so happy. It opened its mouth wide again and spewed out several streams of Golden Star Fragment Fire into the furnace. A column of golden flames rose from within the furnace, incinerating the surrounding air and producing plumes of white smoke.

Lin Xun jumped up and urgently stopped Jiujiu, “Take your time. There’s no rush. The heat doesn’t need to be that strong. The temperature just needs to be consistent, just like now...”

He rambled on, and he didn’t care whether Jiujiu understood him or not.

The flames had alarmed Xue Jin. He rushed over and exclaimed in surprise, “Are you going to start forging a blade now?”

Lin Xun nodded. Then, a thought struck him. “Old Jin, do me a favor and watch Jiujiu. Don’t let it waste the rune materials in the furnace.”

“How would I know what to do?”

Lin Xun said casually, “Those are the materials needed to be smelted to forge into a blade. It’s very simple. Just watch the furnace and don’t let it explode.”

As he was speaking, he spun around and sped into the room. He had to prepare the rune ink as he planned to immediately engrave rune patterns on the rudimentary blade once it was formed!

Xue Jin was stunned. He found that Lin Xun seemed to have become another person. He had an indescribable focus and seriousness on his face like he was in control of everything that regarded runes. He exuded utmost confidence.

“I didn’t know that this kid has such a side to him…”

Xue Jin’s heart fluttered. It greatly boosted his confidence that Lin Xun would be able to help him make a rune armament in the future.
