He flew back to the Zhu Clan. The Zhu Clan looked the same as before. The guards were lax and the atmosphere was calm. If he had not experienced the shocking scene of the Zhu Clan's powerhouses in the marketplace, Zhu Minglang would have thought that the Zhu Clan's Clan was exuding an aura similar to Mr. Koi's.
It turned out that this was all on the surface.
Even a young master of the Zhu Clan could not see through it.
When he arrived at the study room with a view of the lake, Qin Yang was guarding outside as usual. She saw Zhu Minglang walking in with a face full of confusion and surprise.
"Is he done eating?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"Yes, yes." Qin Yang nodded. She did not understand how the Young Master knew that Zhu Tianguan was eating supper.
She pushed open the door and entered. Zhu Tianguan was drinking tea. The smell of leftovers was still lingering in the room, but it quickly dissipated due to the lake breeze. It was replaced by the fragrance of green tea.
He raised his head and looked at Zhu Minglang. He did not seem surprised. He took another sip of the freshly brewed tea, as if he did not want to waste it.
"Why? Did you know that I would come?" Zhu Minglang was puzzled.
Did Zhu Tianguan know that he had been reborn to yesterday?
"Here, you dropped this outside King An's courtyard." Zhu Tianguan threw the waist tag to Zhu Minglang. "You saved that fatty because you didn't want him to die so easily. Although he did harm many people from the Zhu Clan all these years, including your brother Zhu Tong, he was also the one who manipulated behind the scenes …"
"I asked some questions, then I killed him and buried him at Mount Jiujun," Zhu Minglang said.
"Did you get the answer you wanted?" Zhu Tianguan asked.
"Yes, almost." Zhu Minglang nodded.
"You were worried about me, so you deliberately came from so far away?" Zhu Tianguan asked again.
"Yes."
"You're acting a little strange today. Normally, you wouldn't say that you're worried about your father so bluntly. Did something happen?" Zhu Tianguan looked a little uncomfortable.
"It's nothing. I'll take care of it." Zhu Minglang forced a smile.
In fact, seeing Zhu Tianguan eating supper and drinking tea here, Zhu Minglang let out a long sigh of relief.
Zhu Minglang remembered every single word he had said back then. Even though there was not a single word about his expectations, Zhu Minglang could still feel his silent protectiveness.
The entire Zhu Sect was silently paving the way for their future, even if it meant going up against a god!
At that moment, Zhu Minglang truly felt the feeling of someone holding up the sky for you even if it collapsed.
But it didn't feel good!
Zhu Minglang still hoped that no matter how much time he spent outside, when he returned to the Zhu Sect and this study, he would still see Zhu Tianguan leisurely drinking tea here, instead of everyone jumping into the River of Annihilation one after another, just so that he and a few others could step on their shoulders and heads to reach the other side.
"The Jade Blood Sword and the Silver River Sword are your third and second best swordsmithing products. What's the first?" Zhu Minglang asked.
Zhu Tianguan was stunned for a moment.
He stared at Zhu Minglang and then pointed at Zhu Minglang.
"Me?" Zhu Minglang asked.
Just as Zhu Minglang was feeling touched, Zhu Tianguan shook his head.
"???" Zhu Minglang felt that Zhu Tianguan was hiding something from him.
"Isn't it in your hands?" Zhu Tianguan smiled bitterly.
Just as Zhu Minglang was puzzled, the Stegosaurus behind him flew out and circled around Zhu Minglang, looking very happy.
Zhu Tianguan wasn't pointing at Zhu Minglang, but at Stegosaurus!
"This …" Zhu Minglang didn't know what to say for a moment.
"During the years you were missing, I sent people to look for you all over the Extreme Court, but they couldn't find you. I thought you were dead. I was very sad during those days, so I went to where you lived, the Abandoned Sword Forest, "Zhu Tianguan recounted.
"You made Stegosaurus???" Zhu Minglang couldn't believe it.
"I saw those abandoned swords in the Abandoned Sword Forest, so I used the sunlight as the furnace fire and the rusted swords as the materials to forge a sword spirit. Originally, it should have been branded with my spiritual imprint like the other swords I made, and become my exclusive sword. But these abandoned swords seemed to be stained with your blood, and a spirit that was only compatible with you was born. I wanted to treat it as you and let it accompany me, but it didn't want to go with me. It only wanted to wait for you in the Abandoned Sword Forest. It was more convinced than I was that you weren't dead … However, I didn't expect it to turn into a dragon later. It seemed to know that you had become a dragon master! "Zhu Tianguan calmly recounted these things.
Zhu Minglang was shocked.
The sword spirit of the Abandoned Sword Forest …
Zhu Minglang had always thought that it was naturally formed.
It turned out that Zhu Tianguan had been there before, and used those abandoned swords to piece together a spirit to comfort his soul.
Perhaps he had poured too much emotion into it, which made the sword spirit far surpass all his previous creations. It even turned from a sword spirit into a dragon, and became a real life with independent consciousness and wisdom!
It turned out that there weren't so many coincidences in the world. It was just that he had neglected too many traceable details when he was in a hurry to move forward.
If everything had gone according to the previous trajectory, he might not have known the true origin of Stegosaurus for the rest of his life.
"How come I've never heard you mention it before?" Zhu Minglang felt sad, especially when he thought of the battle tomorrow, when he had risked everything to kill the god.
As a blacksmith, he was already very outstanding. As the Clan Master, he had developed the clan to the extreme. As a father, he had silently protected him, and even shouldered everything for him when the sky fell down.
"Your grandfather was too embarrassed to say that he set up a memorial tablet for you, right?" Zhu Tianguan laughed.
"Eh, he set up a memorial tablet for me???" Zhu Minglang's mouth twitched, and the image of the bearded Sword Venerable's grandfather appeared in his mind. He finally understood why his grandfather was so guilty when he saw him!
"Where did you find out about the Jade Blood Sword? Logically speaking, there shouldn't be many people who know about it," Zhu Tianguan asked.
"Elder Jing Lin told me, but the royal family should also know that the Jade Blood Sword is in our hands," Zhu Minglang said.
"Is that so? That doesn't make sense. "Zhu Tianguan fell into deep thought.
"Why doesn't it make sense?"
"The Jade Blood Sword is known as the number one sword in the world, but because of your grandfather's matter, it has been lost for a long time. Everyone knows about it."
"Ah?" Zhu Minglang felt that the script wasn't right. Wasn't the Jade Blood Sword in the Zhu Clan?
"But in recent years, our clan has prospered, and we have found the lost Jade Blood Swords, so I secretly reforged the Jade Blood Sword. However, very few people know that I reforged the Jade Blood Sword, so how can they be sure that the Jade Blood Sword is in our Zhu Clan? "Zhu Tianguan said.
