The Lian family's ancestral worship ceremony began amidst the clamor. It was a grand occasion that had not been seen in South Distant City for many years.
The ceremony was called ancestral worship, but it was actually to announce the Lian family's unshakable status as the holy land of weaponsmiths.
It was to announce to the world that the Lian family still had the ability to forge masterpieces.
As the weaponsmith of Sauvignon Longing, Lian Que was the main character today.
He knelt on the high platform from beginning to end like a clay puppet, allowing others to dress him up.
As a guest, Jiang Wang watched the whole process comfortably. He sat on the high chair and silently admired the expression on Lian Que's ugly face.
It only took a morning for Lian Que to go from being happy to being numb and tired.
After an entire morning of tedious ceremonies, the first stage of the ceremony was finally completed.
Only then was Lian Que allowed to move.
As the weaponsmith of Sauvignon Longing, he tied the tassels with his own hands.
After everything was done, a member of the Lian family presented the scabbard that was specially made for Sauvignon Longing.
Lian Que returned the sword to the scabbard. Sauvignon Longing was like a dragon swimming in the ocean, letting out a clear cry. The treasured sword was hidden in the scabbard, concealing its strength and biding its time.
Lian Zhuping took over Sauvignon Longing and personally placed it on the altar.
After praying to the heavens and earth, it was officially the ancestral worship ceremony.
Not only was it busy, but it also took a full four hours to complete the ceremony. Lian Que rubbed his legs and got up to invite Sauvignon Longing to Jiang Wang to complete the last stage.
At this moment, an announcement came from afar, "The 14th Prince has arrived!"
The crowd quickly opened up a path and bowed.
Lian Que frowned and quickened his steps.
However, an elder calmly stopped in front of the altar and scolded, "The prince has arrived. Why aren't you welcoming him? Where is your decency?"
Lian Que moved to the left and squeezed forward, "If you want to welcome him, go ahead. The masterpieces are in front of me. I'll finish the ceremony first."
"Impudent!" The elder said angrily, "How dare you be so rude after forging a masterpiece by luck! Do you still have the family and the imperial court in your eyes? "
No matter how slow Lian Que was, he knew that something was wrong and did not argue with the elder. He only turned to Lian Zhuping, "Patriarch! Is this your idea? "
However, Lian Zhuping did not say anything. He bowed and said, "Welcome, Fourteenth Prince!"
Jiang Wang felt something was not quite right. He was about to go up and ask about the situation when a sedan chair approached the stage.
There were ten sedan bearers in total, and all of them were in the Reaching Heaven State.
The curtain of the palanquin was lifted, and a purple-robed man with gold powder on his face walked out.
He must be the fourteenth son of Emperor Qi, Jiang Wuyong.
The people of Qi admired purple, and purple was the most expensive color. Those who wore purple were mostly nobles.
He got off the palanquin and ignored the crowd. He only cared about walking up the high platform.
His sleeves fluttered in the wind, and his steps were calm. He had the bearing of a royal.
He walked up the stage and saw the Sauvignon Blanc on the altar. He was delighted. "Good sword! My heart is comforted! "
As he spoke, he wanted to continue forward.
Lian Que took a step forward and blocked his path. He said in a neither servile nor overbearing tone, "Your Highness, this sword already has a master."
Without waiting for the fourteenth prince to speak, the elder from before grabbed Lian Que and said, "Is it your turn to speak? In front of the fourteenth prince, how dare you act so presumptuously! "
Lian Que turned around and punched. The Heaven and Earth Gates opened, and a strong wind blew. It was as if a furnace fire was leaping out of his body.
"Old bastard Lian Luyue! Are you done? "
The Lian Clan Weaponsmith Clan was not known for their battle prowess. This clan elder was only at the peak of the Soaring Dragon Realm.
The fist and the claw collided, and they were evenly matched.
Lian Luyue didn't expect Lian Que to retaliate. He couldn't hold back his anger and shouted, "How dare you be so rude!"
"Elder, please calm down!" Lian Zhuping obviously would not allow the situation to escalate. He immediately stood in the middle and separated Lian Que and Lian Luyue.
At the same time, he scolded Lian Que, "Behave yourself!"
"Who's not behaving?" Lian Que was so angry that his ugly face turned red. "This weapon has nothing to do with you. It is already Jiang Wang's good intention to use it for the sacrifice. What right do you have to decide who it belongs to? "
"Aren't you a member of the Lian Family? Aren't your skills the secret of the Lian Family? Aren't your forging resources provided by the Lian Family? Isn't your sword furnace the ancient furnace passed down by the Lian Family? "
Lian Zhuping asked sternly. "Now you're saying it has nothing to do with the Lian Family?"
"From the start, I have been forging for Jiang Wang! From start to finish, Jiang Wang has been involved. A weapon forged by the heavens is limited! This sword belongs to Jiang Wang from the start! Not only does it not belong to you, it doesn't even belong to me! "
Lian Luyue said coldly. "You did promise to forge a weapon for him, but you didn't say which one. Put it aside and focus on forging another one for him. That way, you won't be breaking your promise. "
Lian Que looked at him in anger. "You can say that, but how can you do that? Do you not want the Lian Family's face anymore? "
Pa!
Patriarch Lian Zhuping slapped Lian Que to the ground. "Is this something you should say?"
"Alright." Jiang Wuyong smiled. "I'm just here to see the new weapon of the Qi Qi Weapon Forging Sacred Ground. Why are you so agitated? Move aside, let me take a look. "
Lian Luyue immediately moved aside. "Please have a look."
Jiang Wuyong walked forward calmly. At this time, a voice came from behind him. "You better stop."
The voice wasn't loud, but it was extremely hard.
"And who are you?" Jiang Wuyong turned around and looked at Jiang Wang with a playful expression.
Not long after the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm ended, he came for the Sauvignon Longing. There was no way he didn't know about Jiang Wang.
His question was purely to express his contempt.
Even the Divine Ability Inner Palace wasn't a big shot to the Qi Qi Imperial Family, let alone a seed of the Divine Ability Inner Palace!
"You don't need to know who I am. You only need to know … "Jiang Wang stood up and pointed at the Sauvignon Longing." That's my sword! "
On the shelf, the Sauvignon Longing suddenly hummed.
Jiang Wuyong wasn't angry. Instead, he was happy. He couldn't help but praise, "Good sword!"
"It's mine," Jiang Wang added.
"What's yours? You're stepping on Qi soil. Your body is in Qi. Everything in Qi has the surname Jiang! "Jiang Wuyong said calmly." It's the surname Jiang of the Qi Imperial Family. It's not like you, a bastard who came out of nowhere … Do you deserve the surname Jiang? "
"Everything in Qi has the surname Jiang. Unfortunately, it's not your Jiang." Following this voice, a big fat man entered. His eyes were almost squinted.
He seemed to be in a hurry. His clothes were slightly wrinkled.
His fat body didn't seem very intimidating.
However, as he walked, the crowd made way for him.
He looked at the 14th Prince with a smile. There was no respect in his expression. "You want to represent Qi? Aren't you afraid of being spanked by your brothers and sisters?"
It was Chung Geng Sheng!
When he was in Linzi, the capital of Qi, he heard that Jiang Wuyong was coming to Nanyao City. Therefore, he immediately put down what he was doing and chased after Jiang Wuyong.
Finally, he arrived at Nanyao City in time to support Jiang Wang!
Before he spoke, he had secretly communicated with Jiang Wang.
Therefore, as soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Wang cooperated and asked, "This is the 14th Prince. How dare you talk to him like this?"
Chung Geng Sheng put his hand over his mouth and leaned closer to Jiang Wang. He pretended to whisper, "The Imperial Family is noble. However, our king has nine daughters and seventeen sons. Other than the Crown Prince, the most outstanding ones are the Third Princess, the Ninth Prince, and the Eleventh Prince. However, there's no place for the 14th Prince. "
"But I'm different! The whole Junggenjia is now between me and Jung Genzun. I'm half a Junggenjia. However, he's only a prince. Although the Imperial Family is noble, there's only one person. This person doesn't even have a single hair. Why should I be afraid of him? "
He pretended to whisper, but his voice was so clear that everyone could hear him.
Jiang Wuyong's face, which was covered with gold powder, was also livid with anger.
However, what Chung Geng Sheng said was the truth. At least, it was true when it came to Jiang Wuyong.
The battle for the throne was fierce. With his strength, how could he dare to admit that he wanted to represent Qi?
Fortunately, as a prince, he had no lack of loyal servants to protect him.
"This is my Lian Family's sword." Lian Family's elder, Lian Luyue, said, "The 14th Prince doesn't just want to play with it. Even if you want to collect it, my Lian Family is loyal to the Imperial Family. How can we refuse?"
At this time, Lian Que had climbed up from the ground. The anger in his eyes hadn't disappeared. At this time, the anger was so real that it almost burned out of his eyes.
He cut his palm with his fingers and raised his bleeding left hand. He said loudly, "I swear on my honor as a swordsmith! This Sauvignon Longsword is Jiang Wang's sword! It has nothing to do with me or the Lian Family! The Lian Family has no right to decide who it belongs to! "
Lian Luyue scolded, "The Patriarch is still here! The Lian Family doesn't need you to say anything! Back off obediently! "
"Ha-ha-ha." Chung Geng Sheng sneered.
At that time, Jiang Wang didn't listen to his advice. He didn't want to maximize the benefits and insisted on returning the life tablet. He couldn't say anything. In the end, Lian Que forged a famous weapon and everyone was happy.
However, the Lian Family stirred up a lot of trouble. Holding an ancestral worship ceremony, and then presenting a sword without any rhyme or reason.
These guys with the surname Lian were getting worse and worse. Chung Geng Sheng couldn't stand it.
At this time, he didn't show any mercy and said coldly, "There's no need to act here. No matter how the Lian Family acts, I just want everyone to remember one thing. Whoever dares to snatch Jiang Wang's things, I, Chung Geng Sheng, will go all out and slap his face!"
As one of the successors of the Chongxuan Family, Chung Geng Sheng's words carried a lot of weight.
"I didn't act with them!" Lian Que suddenly shouted with an indescribable grief and indignation.
He stood on the high platform and looked around.
He saw the confusion of the Lian Family members and the anger of the Lian Family elders. What he saw was the ridicule of the outsiders and the disdain of people like Zhong Xuan Sheng.
Yes, how could he not know? Everyone would think so. As the only blacksmith in the Lian Family to forge famous weapons in the past fifty years, he was also the one who forged the Sauvignon Longsword. How could he not know that the Lian Family wanted to offer the sword to Jiang Wuyong?
Everyone would think so.
Just like in the beginning, everyone thought that he had survived the Heaven Secret Realm by wagging his tail and begging for mercy.
No one would listen to his explanation.
No one would believe him.
All the despicableness, treachery, and shamelessness that should be attributed to the Lian Family were also attributed to him.
At this moment, no one knew what he was thinking.
They could only see, widen their eyes and see —
Lian Que looked around with grief and indignation. In the end, he only looked at Jiang Wang and said, "Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang, I can't be humiliated like this! I don't have the face to see you humiliated! "
He actually hit his own head with a backhand palm!
