High Martial Arts: Creating a Prodigy Character from Scratch

"Master Wei is my elder. I am new here, so please forgive me if I have offended you in any way."

Qin He glanced at Wei Wenda thoughtfully.

I thought Wei Tongzhou was just an ordinary sculptor, but I never expected that the staff member he casually found was the general manager of Wanxiang Building in Jinghu City.

It seems that Wei Tongzhou's status at Wanxiang Tower is even higher than he expected.

Qin He became curious and wanted to know more.

As for Wei Wenda's question, Qin He simply brushed it off by saying they were elders.

However, he wasn't lying. Xu Yunxiu was his swordsmanship teacher, and Wei Tongzhou was Xu Yunxiu's senior uncle, so it was reasonable to say that they were elders.

"So you're Master Wei's junior, Brother Qin. You're a distinguished man, clearly an outstanding individual!"

"Master Wei is a specially appointed sculpture master at our Wanxianglou headquarters. Brother Qin, if you ever need anything, just let us know!"

Wei Wenda seemed to have misunderstood something, and his gaze toward Qin He became even more eager.

"General Manager Wei, there's no need for that. Just treat me like an ordinary employee."

Qin He was surprised, but remained calm on the surface. Faced with Wei Wenda's flattery, he maintained a dignified attitude but did not offer any further explanation.

It was only at this point that Qin He learned Wei Tongzhou's true identity.

The headquarters of Vientiane Tower has specially hired a master sculptor.

It seems that Wei Tongzhou is also a very important figure in the headquarters of Wanxianglou.

This made Qin He even more puzzled. A big shot like Wei Tongzhou shouldn't be in a small place like Jinghu City.

However, this is clearly not a matter that should be asked of Wei Wenda.

After all, he was Wei Tongzhou's "junior," so how could he not even know why Wei Tongzhou was in Jinghu City?

Both sides had their own agendas, but under these circumstances, Qin He's onboarding process went very smoothly and was completed quickly.

......

"Xiao Yunxiu, are you alright? Your imagery seems unstable, and your life force is abnormally disordered. Could you have been poisoned by imagery?"

Inside the workshop, Wei Tongzhou looked at Xu Yunxiu with a solemn expression.

When Xu Yunxiu stepped into the workshop, he noticed that something was wrong with her, but with Qin He present, he couldn't ask her too many questions.

"I couldn't hide it from Uncle Wei after all. I was indeed poisoned by the Poison of Imagery, and it was an unknown poison. My own imagery was eroded, and I had to withdraw from the Starry Sky Battlefield."

Xu Yunxiu smiled helplessly, pulling up her sleeve to reveal a hideous scar running through her wrist.

"What is that old bastard Xu Xiangye good for? He couldn't even take good care of you!"

Wei Tongzhou cursed loudly, grabbed Xu Yunxiu's wrist with his right hand, and channeled his spiritual power into the wound, trying to help Xu Yunxiu check her injury.

However, as soon as Wei Tongzhou used his power of imagery, a strange and sinister aura suddenly erupted, surging out from Xu Yunxiu's wound, seemingly about to devour everything.

But the next moment, an extremely domineering sword intent suddenly erupted from Xu Yunxiu's body, covering Xu Yunxiu's wrist and forcefully suppressing this sinister aura.

"What a bizarre and insidious imagery poison! It's so terrifying; it's unlike any ordinary imagery toxin!"

Wei Tongzhou frowned, silently observing the wound on Xu Yunxiu's wrist, trying to see if there was a solution.

"Uncle-Master Wei, my teacher has already suppressed the poison of imagery for me and has even ventured deep into the Starry Sky Battlefield to try and find an antidote for me. Please stop scolding him."

Xu Yunxiu said helplessly that Wei Tongzhou was too fast and didn't listen to her explanation at all. She was almost poisoned by the imagery.

"That old guy does have some conscience, but why did you come to Mirror Lake City? The medical conditions on the main planet must be better."

Wei Tongzhou looked at Xu Yunxiu with suspicion, then frowned as if he had thought of something and said, "You don't actually believe in that 'prophetic saying,' do you?"

Prophet imagery.

One of the most mysterious top-tier symbols in the history of the Star Martial Federation, capable of foretelling future events through prophecy.

However, such predictions are strange, with a high probability of error, and often result in incorrect predictions.

However, it can have unexpected effects at crucial moments.

The Star Martial Federation once escaped a genocide thanks to a prophetic warning.

"The Flying Sparrow, the Twelve Mirrors, the Rescue of Heaven's Collapse... This prophetic saying passed down within the sect has long been determined to be false."

Wei Tongzhou frowned and uttered an ancient prophecy.

This is a prophecy left for them by a prophet who had a deep connection with their sect's founder during the ancient martial arts era.

Through repeated research by generations of predecessors within the sect, this prophecy has long been clearly deciphered.

The bird is the Vermilion Bird, its flapping wings represent wings, twelve stars represent stars, and the mirror represents a mirror...

In other words, the twelfth star in the Wing constellation, the place where the mirror is located, is the place that can save the world from collapse.

Therefore, our ancestors determined that Jinghu City, one of the 12 stars of the Wing Guard, was the place mentioned in the prophecy.

However, over the centuries, despite their countless secret investigations of Jinghu City, including digging deep into the ground, they found nothing and had no choice but to give up.

Theoretically speaking, Xu Yunxiu should not be in Jinghu City.

The only possibility is that they came because of the prophecy.

If that's the case, Wei Tongzhou should give her some serious advice. The efforts of the sect's predecessors have already proven that this prophecy is unreliable.

Staying in Jinghu City would only be a waste of time.

"Uncle Wei, I'm just trying my luck. If I don't find anything, I won't stay long."

"But Uncle Wei, why have you come to Jinghu City?"

Xu Yunxiu shook her head. She was very rational and would not blindly pursue this prophecy.

However, due to her current special circumstances, she is unable to enter the Starry Sky Battlefield for training and can only try her luck in Mirror Lake City.

On the contrary, Wei Tongzhou, as a specially appointed sculpture master of the Wanxianglou headquarters, should not be in a small place like Jinghu City.

Xu Yunxiu was quite curious about this.

"Wanxiang Tower detected an abnormal spatial oscillation deep within Mirror Lake, suspecting the appearance of a void rift."

"Take a look at this. This is a special material that appeared at the location of the void oscillation. It is not a native material of the Wing Guard 12 stars."

"Wanxiang Tower suspects that the other end of this void rift is likely a special mining planet that can produce special minerals, so I came to take a look."

As Wei Tongzhou spoke, he handed the jade stones in his arms to Xu Yunxiu and told her about the origin of these special jade stones.

Unlike Xu Yunxiu, he wouldn't make a special trip to Jinghu City because of such an unfounded prophecy.

The main reason is that Wanxianglou discovered this special substance and the vast resources hidden behind it.

"A rift in the void, deep within Mirror Lake... Uncle-Master Wei, do you think the prophecy might have come true?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yunxiu's eyes lit up, and she thought of the ancient prophecy.

Perhaps the predecessors within the sect couldn't find the answer to the prophecy simply because they were looking in the wrong direction.

The thing mentioned in the prophecy was not originally in Mirror Lake City, but in the void rift deep within Mirror Lake.
