CHAPTER 78
Legacy of Refining
"Crafting Legacy … What good luck!"
Wan Kangcheng and the other Weapon Refiners revealed greedy looks on their faces.
This world was boundlessly old, millions upon millions of years old. Occasionally, there would be people with great luck who would obtain ancient legacies and rise to prominence.
"Young Society Master, if our Tianfeng Society can obtain this Weapon Crafting Inheritance, we can attract even more Weapon Craftsmen to join us and strengthen our Tianfeng Society's strength …" An old man's eyes flashed as he spoke slowly.
"That Tiger Piercing Blade is only a low-grade magic item, but it already has the power of thunder and lightning. The value of this kind of refining technique is shocking. If we can get it, our refining techniques will rise to a whole new level. When the time comes, money will be rolling in!"
"That's right, that's right. When the Society Leader comes out of seclusion, we can recruit this Tool Forger into our Tianfeng Society and have him hand over the Tool Forging Technique."
The other blacksmiths all agreed, and their thoughts were all surging.
"Hmph, he's just a helpless refiner. There's no need to trouble my father. I have my own ways!"
Wan Kangcheng sneered.
Six days later, a carriage pulled by a Golden Mane Horned Beast stopped outside the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion. An old man in luxurious clothes came down from the carriage with a majestic gait and an imposing aura.
Behind the golden horned beast carriage, there were a few other beast carriages, all of which were filled with various powerful beasts.
Men dressed in noble clothes walked down from the beast carriages. Their expressions were arrogant as they slowly followed the long-robed old man into the Heavenly Blessing Pavilion.
"Elder Jin!"
Old Jia, who had been waiting in the hall for a long time, greeted the long-robed old man in front of him.
Elder Jin's name was Jin Gao Yi, and he was a powerful elder of the Jin Family.
The Jin family was ranked in the top fifty among the first-rate families. They had a strong foundation.
"Mr. Jia, this is Master Wan Kangcheng of the Tianfeng Association."
"This is Master Xuan Yuzi."
"This is Master Bo Ming."
…
Jin Gao Yi pointed to the people behind him and introduced them one by one.
These people were all famous blacksmiths in the War Emperor City, members of the Tianfeng Conclave.
"The blacksmiths of the Tianfeng Conclave are big shots that we usually can't even invite. Today, they came uninvited. I'm afraid they're here to cause trouble."
Old Jia's expression didn't change. He quickly bowed, "Greetings, grandmasters!"
"Yes."
Wan Kangcheng did not take Elder Jia seriously at all. He nodded nonchalantly with a condescending look on his face.
The other blacksmiths also had cold looks on their faces.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Elder Jia said respectfully, "Elder Jin, masters, please come to the quiet room on the second floor for tea."
"Yes, there's no need to trouble yourself. We didn't come to your Heavenly Fortune Pavilion to drink tea."
Wan Kangcheng was still breathing through his nostrils.
"That's right, we're here to witness the masterpiece of the master refiner of your pavilion."
"Hmph, that's right. We came here uninvited to broaden our horizons. There's no need for tea."
"Refining a mid-grade Magic artefact in six days? What a formidable method! I, Xuan Yuzi, must take a good look."
The other blacksmiths didn't even touch their teacups as they spoke coldly.
Jin Gaoyi's expression was a little awkward. Although he knew that the blacksmiths of the Tianfeng Conclave who came to him and said that they wanted to come to the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion together probably had bad intentions, these blacksmiths had noble statuses. In the future, if the Jin family wanted to buy Magic artefacts, they would have to deal with these people. He didn't dare to offend them easily.
"Mr. Jia, may I know if my Magic artefact has been refined?"
Jin Gaoyi could only pretend that he didn't know and asked Elder Jia.
"Elder Jin, you might have to wait for a while," Elder Jia said.
At this moment, Luo Zheng was still in the quiet room and hadn't come out.
"Didn't you say that you only needed six days to refine it? Now that the time has passed, does your pavilion only have this little bit of credibility? "
When Wan Kangcheng heard that, he seemed to have caught something that could be used against him. He laughed sinisterly, "Hmph, I dare say that I only need six days to refine a mid-grade Magic artefact. The skull of the Great Swamp Crocodile contains the metal and water attributes. Even if I were to refine it, I wouldn't be able to refine it without at least fifteen days. I think your pavilion should prepare five million taels of gold as soon as possible, in case you can't raise it by then. "
"Master Kangcheng, it's true that you said six days, but there's still four hours before the six days are up."
Elder Jia's expression was a little ugly. This Wan Kangcheng's words were a little too much.
"Hmph, hmph, hmph! Four more hours? So what if there's another four hours? This weapon refiner of yours has probably never refined a mid-grade Magic artefact before, right? "Xuan Yuzi also had a cold smile on his face.
"This …"
Elder Jia was stunned for a moment. He had indeed never seen Luo Zheng refine a mid-grade Magic artefact before, so he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Wan Kangcheng observed his expression and felt even more pleased with himself. He looked as if he had expected this. "Hmph, hmph, as expected. This weapon refiner of yours has only refined a few low-grade Magic artefacts, and he thinks that he's infallible. I'm afraid that he hasn't even dabbled in mid-grade Magic artefacts before, yet he actually said that it would only take six days to complete the refinement. The ignorant are truly fearless. "
"Haha, Young Guild Master, I'm afraid it's a little too early to come to such a conclusion. After all, there's still four more hours. Who knows, this weapon refiner of the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion might really defy the heavens and refine a shocking piece of work," Ma Boming said ambiguously.
"Defy the heavens? Hahaha, since that's the case, we'll wait for him for four more hours! " Wan Kangcheng sneered continuously. "However, if this master of your pavilion can't refine it in the agreed time, then it won't be so easy to settle this matter."
"That's right. If he's a swindler, then he'll naturally be punished."
Xuan Yuzi's face revealed a cold expression.
"What do you mean by that, Master Xuan Yuzi?" Elder Jia's expression changed.
"Hmph, our Heavenly Wind Guild is the representative of weapon refiners. We definitely won't allow some scum to use the name of weapon refiners to amass wealth. If this weapon refiner of your pavilion really has some ability, then so be it. However, if he's just a swindler, then he'll naturally be punished. Not only will he have to compensate for the materials, but he'll also have to lose an arm!"
Xuan Yuzi laughed coldly and said loudly.
"Lose an arm? If this weapon refiner loses an arm, then he'll be crippled!"
"Tsk tsk, it's common for weapon refinement to fail. If they have to compensate for every failure, then who would dare to refine for others? I'm afraid that in less than two years, there won't be any weapon refiners left."
"The Heavenly Wind Guild is so impressive! Recently, the weapons refined by the weapon refiner of the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion have all been auctioned off at shocking prices. I think they're jealous! "
Some of the guests in the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion were immediately attracted over. They all discussed softly, thinking that the Heavenly Wind Guild was too overbearing.
