"That's enough."
Qin Yichen's lips curled. Actually, this was within his expectations. In fact, it was slightly better.
After all, King Xiaoyao had been in seclusion for too long.
He was still able to control thirty percent of the army. This was enough to show how prestigious King Xiaoyao was back then.
"Enough?"
Xia Zelei looked at him in surprise.
If he wanted to help a woman ascend to the position of Crown Princess, he must have an overwhelming advantage.
"Your Highness, take a look at what this is."
Qin Yichen placed a longsword made of Xuanyun ore in front of him.
"Eh?"
Xia Zelei was surprised when he saw the color of the Xuanyun longsword. Then, he picked up the longsword, extended his finger and flicked the blade …
"Ding!"
"The toughness is not bad, but I wonder how sharp it is."
Xia Zelei frowned, then waved his hand and slashed the longsword at the stone table beside him.
"Buzz …"
The sound of the sword rang out. The stone table was sliced in half by the longsword.
"Hiss …"
Xia Zelei couldn't help but gasp when he saw the smooth cut. He was sure that he didn't use any of his inner Yuan. This was caused by the sharpness of the longsword!
"Who made this sword?"
Xia Zelei grabbed Qin Yichen's arm excitedly. Then, as if he realized that he had lost his composure, he let go of his hand embarrassedly. However, he still couldn't wait to ask this question.
Qin Yichen didn't treat him as an outsider. He could understand why Xia Zelei was so excited. Then, under Xia Zelei's shocked gaze, he pointed at himself.
"You, you made this?"
Xia Zelei was shocked. This guy, the youngest Martial King, could even cure his wife's illness. Why does it seem like he knows everything?
"Your Highness, do you know what this sword is made of?" Qin Yichen asked with a smile.
"This weapon's weight is about the same as steel, but its sharpness far surpasses that of steel. To be honest, I've never seen such a thing before."
Xia Zelei frowned and muttered to himself for a while before shaking his head. Even with his knowledge, he had no impression of any of the materials that he knew of.
"Xuanyun ore." Qin Yichen smiled.
"Xuanyun ore? How can that thing be used to refine weapons … "
Xia Zelei shook his head and said without hesitation. Then, as if he had thought of something, his body suddenly became sluggish.
It seemed that this young man had done too many things that he thought were impossible …
As if he had already guessed that Xia Zelei would react this way, Qin Yichen immediately took out a piece of Xuanyun ore from his ring. Then, he took out a bottle of medicine and poured it onto the Xuanyun ore.
Xia Zelei was dumbstruck. That incomparably hard Xuanyun ore had actually softened under an unremarkable potion …
Within a few minutes, a Xuanyun longsword that was identical to the longsword in Xia Zelei's hand once again appeared in front of him.
Xia Zelei was completely stunned as he looked at the longsword that had been refined on the spot. Xia Ziling did not laugh at his loss of composure. After all, her reaction was no better than Xia Zelei's when she saw it for the first time.
"This is too unbelievable …"
After a long while, Xia Zelei finally regained his senses. He kept muttering to himself. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that Xuanyun ore could be dissolved.
"Xuanyun ore … Xuanyun ore? Right, I heard a few days ago that Brother Wang was going to reward Xuanyun County to some kid. Should we go and snatch it? "
Xia Zelei muttered to himself, then clapped his hands.
"Uncle Wang, Xuanyun County is indeed going to be rewarded to me," Xia Ziling said at this moment.
"Oh …"
Hearing Xia Ziling's words, Xia Zelei finally relaxed. At the same time, he looked at Qin Yichen in disbelief. It seemed that this fellow had already been able to dissolve Xuanyun ore for a long time. Didn't he already have Xuanyun County in his hands?
"If we can equip the army with Xuanyun ores in large quantities, then our Twilight Principality's army will be invincible. Mister, if this formula is handed over to the principality …" Xia Zelei was somewhat excited as he calculated.
"Your Highness, I don't intend to hand this over to the duchy for the time being."
Qin Yichen interrupted Xia Zelei's words and said: "If Princess Qi becomes the Crown Prince, then I will give you the formula of this medicine unconditionally."
Xia Zelei nodded and did not insist on anything. He clearly understood the meaning behind Qin Yichen's words.
"Your Highness, don't worry. I will do my best to refine as many weapons as possible. I will strive to equip the remaining 30% of your army with Xuanyun weapons within a year."
Qin Yichen cupped his hands and said to Xia Zelei.
Hearing Qin Yichen's words, Xia Zelei was relieved. As long as his army was equipped with Xuanyun weapons, the other armies would definitely be jealous and come to him.
After that, Xia Ziling also secretly arranged for a batch of Xuanyun ore to be transported from the Xuanyun County.
However, due to the large number of people, she cleverly did not bring the Xuanyun ore into the city. Instead, she built a factory in a secret place outside Twilight City.
Whenever Qin Yichen had the time, he would also go to the factory to refine Xuanyun ore weapons. He had obtained Lu Ban's inheritance, so he could also familiarize himself with refining weapons in this kind of place.
However, Qin Yichen went out several times. Although he was very secretive, he was still discovered by some people.
On this day, as usual, Qin Yichen left the Dankai in a not-so-luxurious carriage and headed towards the factory outside Twilight City.
When he was just a few miles away from Twilight City, Qin Yichen, who was meditating in the carriage, suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
At this moment, without any hesitation, he smashed the roof of the carriage with his palm and soared into the sky.
"Whoosh!"
Just as Qin Yichen's figure rose into the air, a sharp sound of wind breaking suddenly sounded. A sharp sword with a cold gleam, like a viper in the dark, shot out violently and aimed at Qin Yichen's back at an unruly angle.
This sudden attack made Qin Yichen's expression change slightly, but at this time, it was too late for him to dodge.
At this critical moment, Qin Yichen did not panic. With a thought, a wave of mental force burst out under the control of his Body of Mind.
"Buzz …"
