Mysterious World: I Have a Lost Heavenly Court

Their thin lips met, and they uttered a few words.

"Burning Soul Great Sun Sword Technique".

"It is a rare and exceptional sword technique in Heishan County and even in the prefectural city."

"This sword technique is inherently fierce, purely yang and extremely powerful."

Lu Changqing murmured a couple of sentences to himself.

Judging from its name, this sword technique is no ordinary one.

Moreover, it perfectly matches his current character!

So, he waited until he had his own spirit sword.

He then practiced this sword technique.

Combined with pure Yang power.

What kind of effect will it have? Its suppression of evil spirits will likely be even more powerful!

"So that's how it is."

Lu Changqing didn't ask if he could be taught any sword techniques.

As long as he wants to learn, Qingyun will definitely teach him.

Legs, fists, weapons.

He hasn't even taken the first step yet.

It can't be rushed.

As for the weapon itself, we can forge one first!

First, forging weapons inherently takes time.

Secondly...once the weapons are ready, you can test them out beforehand.

Later, when they entered the Primordial Era, both fists and swords were being swung wildly, and the latter was more effective.

"We also need to find ways to improve our martial arts skills."

"Otherwise, in the Primordial Era, we couldn't rely solely on instinct, brute force, and pure Yang energy to deal with those monsters."

Lu Changqing immediately stood up and said, "Let's go to the weapon forging workshop."

Qingyun: "Young Master, do you wish to forge a weapon ahead of schedule?"

Lu Changqing nodded: "Yes."

"It just so happens that when I went out for a trip recently, a friend gave me some materials, saying that they could ward off evil spirits and be incorporated into weapons."

Qingyun didn't ask any further questions, simply replying, "Okay."

...

The Lu family was one of the local bullies in Heishan County.

The house occupies a large area.

Apart from normal residences, servants' quarters, and training grounds, etc.

There are also medicinal herb fields and forging workshops.

In addition, they came from a family of iron officials.

The Zheng family, who run the blacksmith shop in Heishan County, has always been on good terms with the Lu family.

They are old friends with a friendship spanning nearly a century.

However, due to issues of family influence and inheritance, they were unable to enter the most core high-level circle in Heishan County.

The two soon arrived at a spacious courtyard.

The moment I stepped inside, I felt the intense heat.

All I could hear was noise and the sound of metal being struck.

Lu Changqing knew the way well and headed towards the largest room.

A net was cast inside, and people could be seen standing in front of two stoves.

The one on the left is older, looking to be over fifty. He has a rugged face, a muscular body, and bulging muscles that make him appear very powerful.

Zheng Xiu, a core member of the Zheng family.

He worked hard for the Lu family for more than ten years and trained many skilled apprentices.

On the right is Zheng Tian, ​​the newly emerging prodigy in forging weapons for the Zheng family. He is nineteen years old this year and two years older than Da Lu Changqing.

Now I'm learning the craft from Zheng Xiu. Once I've fully mastered it, I should head to the weapon-making shop.

The two of them were extremely focused, one shaping the mold and the other hammering the clay.

So much so that when Lu Changqing arrived, neither of them reacted.

"Uncle Zheng!" Lu Changqing stood at the door and spoke first.

Hearing the shout, Zheng Xiu instinctively looked up. Upon seeing Lu Changqing, she froze, her expression one of surprise, before asking, "Third Young Master, what brings you here?"

"Aren't you going to take care of your health anymore?"

Zheng Tian also stopped swinging and hammering the iron hammer at this moment.

When she looked up and saw Lu Changqing, a strange look appeared in her eyes.

As Lu Changqing stepped across the threshold and entered the weapon-forging room, Qingyun followed him in.

When Zheng Tian saw Qingyun, who had delicate features, fair skin, and an appearance so appealing that she looked like a delicious meal, a hint of longing and resentment flashed in his eyes.

Finally, he lowered his head and struck the iron ingot forcefully.

Lu Changqing didn't notice Zheng Tian's expression, but just smiled at Zheng Xiu and said, "I wasn't unconscious the whole time."

"It's been a while since I've seen Uncle Zheng. Here's some good wine to offer as a token of my respect."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qingyun, who was behind him, stepped forward very sensibly and said in a soft and sweet voice, "Uncle Zheng, this is a 20-year-old Daughter's Red wine that the young master brought for you."

"I put it next to the stove for you."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xiu, a rugged-looking man in his fifties, couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Oh dear, it's the Third Young Master who understands us best!"

"Thank you very much, Miss Qingyun. It's been a while since I last saw you. You look even more radiant and energetic. I suppose you're doing well with the Third Young Master."

Qingyun did not deny it, but smiled and quietly retreated behind Lu Changqing, without trying to steal the spotlight.

Lu Changqing surveyed the surroundings of the weapon-forging workshop, then looked at the many weapons already formed behind Zheng Xiu, and sincerely said:

"Uncle Zheng has worked hard all these years."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xiu did not deny it, but simply sighed, "If you're in a position, you should do your job. As long as it's what you're supposed to do, you don't have to worry about whether it's hard or not."

We chatted for a while.

Zheng Xiu spoke up first: "Young Master, you didn't come here today just to deliver some wine to this old man, did you?"

Lu Changqing smiled and took out the corpse poison rat teeth that he had prepared in advance and had Qingyun grind into powder.

"Uncle Zheng's insight is still sharp; he can't hide my thoughts!"

He first offered some flattery, then stated his purpose: "I've come today mainly to trouble Uncle Zheng to forge a sharp sword for me."

"As for the materials, we'll use the family's accounts, and there's no price limit."

"I want the best."

This is the source of his confidence as the third young master of a prestigious iron-management family, who enjoys the utmost affection from the entire family.

In Heishan County, there's basically nothing that Lu Changqing can't get his hands on if it's something that can be bought with money.

For families of iron officials, obtaining the special ores and materials needed to forge weapons was not a problem at all.

Uncle Zheng couldn't help but chuckle. "I knew it..."

He looked at the cloth bag that Lu Changqing had placed on the shelf next to the stove. "What's this?"

Lu Changqing spoke up: "A friend of mine said that forging this into a sharp blade can make the weapon even sharper."

"I would be grateful if you, Uncle Zheng, would trouble yourself with this process."

Zheng Bo didn't ask any further questions, simply replying, "Sure, no problem."

They chatted for a while longer.

Lu Changqing initially intended to leave, but then he reconsidered.

The space also contains a "tail knot evil core" that can attract evil spirits and strange things.

This thing... should we combine it with some potent materials to create a consumable item that can attract and harm eerie entities...?

After a moment, he thought it was feasible.

Therefore, he pretended to have thought of something.

He put his hands inside his robes and took out the Tail Knot Demon Core from the jade pendant's space.

But what he never expected was...

He hadn't yet taken the Tail-Knot Demon Core out of his bosom.

Zheng Xiu was originally being slowly cast in cold water.

Zheng Tian, ​​who was hammering an iron billet, stood to the side.

At this moment, everyone stopped moving!

They all looked towards Lu Changqing!

This scene made Lu Changqing's heart skip a beat.

However, Zheng Tian returned to normal in the next instant.

Zheng Xiu seemed to have choked on the charcoal in the stove. He coughed, waved his hand, and chuckled, "Third Young Master, what are you talking about?"

"What came to mind?"

At this moment, Lu Changqing did not show any unusual behavior.

But the original idea and plan were immediately rejected in my heart.

He replied with a smile, "I've thought of that. Uncle Zheng is quite busy and didn't want you to worry."

"But nephew, I know that this is a matter of slow and careful work. You and Brother Zheng Tian must not rush things. Just take it slow."

Zheng Xiu nodded: "Alright! Don't worry, Third Young Master, leave this to me!"

Thus, Lu Changqing and Qingyun turned back and left.

...

Back in the detached house.

Lu Changqing was still thinking.

Was that just a coincidence? Or...?

Is it really as terrifying as it sounds?

"Young Master, Uncle Zheng and Zheng Tian suddenly acted a bit strange just now," Qingyun said.

Lu Changqing's heart skipped a beat. "What's strange about it?"

Qingyun shook her head: "I can't quite put my finger on it, it's just that I have this feeling... I suddenly got emotional, and the atmosphere is weird."

Lu Changqing's eyes flickered.

If one person's perception is wrong, that's understandable.

Qingyun also sensed it.

Could it really be just a coincidence?

In a flash of thought, he took the evil core, which he hadn't put back into the jade pendant, out of his pocket.

"Knock knock knock".

There was a sudden knock on the door of the detached house.

"Third Young Master, there's something I forgot to ask you!"

"About sword forging!"

It was the voice of old man Zheng Xiu.

Lu Changqing's pupils contracted, and his expression became serious.

"Qingyun, is Uncle Wu back?"

Qingyun was taken aback, then shook her head: "Not yet. The young master sent him out of the city on business yesterday, and he hasn't returned yet."

Lu Changqing asked, "What is Zheng Xiu's strength?"

Qingyun answered truthfully: "A second-realm martial artist."

Lu Changqing then asked, "Which of you two is stronger?"

Qingyun responded decisively: "Me."

Lu Changqing took a deep breath, his eyes gradually narrowing.

He took out a second-tier defensive talisman and quietly clenched it in his palm.

He returned all the remaining talismans to Qingyun.

He really encountered a danger he couldn't solve.

At worst, we can retreat into ancient ruins.

But Qingyun had no choice.

Even though Qingyun spoke so succinctly.

He still couldn't guarantee it.

just in case...

What if the terrifying thought that crossed his mind came true?

It is unknown how the opponent's strength and abilities may change.

He didn't want anything to happen to Qingyun!

"Qingyun, go open the door, then come back to me immediately and get closer to me."

"Be careful, watch out for any moves by Zheng Xiu and his group."

"Also, listen to my words. When I say 'take action,' you must use all your strength to subdue Zheng Xiu first!"

Qingyun was puzzled, but did not ask any further questions.

Her eyes were focused, and she nodded earnestly, taking the Third Young Master's instructions to heart.

"Uncle Zheng, wait a minute, I'm here to open the door!"

Qingyun responded and quickly went to open the courtyard gate.

The courtyard gate was open.

Zheng Xiu and Zheng Tian were both standing outside the door.
