When Teng Qingshan left Nanxing County with his guards and hired men, two ordinary-looking young men quietly arrived outside a luxurious mansion.
"Eh?" There were two burly men standing guard at the entrance of the mansion. One of them, a man with a full beard, looked at the two men coldly and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Big Brother, we have an important matter to attend to."
The two young men smiled mischievously.
"Oh." The man with a full beard looked at the two young men in surprise. He knew the rules of the organization very well. These two young men in front of him were the most ordinary Gray Robes in the organization. They were not qualified to meet the person in charge of the organization in Nanxing County. Unless … something big happened!
"Go in."
The man with a full beard waved his hand.
The two young men immediately laughed and went in. However, they were cursing inwardly, "What a snob! Aren't you just a gatekeeper? Although you're a gatekeeper for a big family … Wait until I make a great contribution and get promoted to a White Robe. In the future, even a Green Robe like you will have to be respectful when you see us brothers. "
In a pavilion in the luxurious mansion, a white-haired old man sat there.
"Lord Wang." The two young men immediately bowed respectfully.
"What's so urgent that you came directly to the Lord Protector? Don't you know the rules? "The old man looked at the two young men with dissatisfaction and said," If it's nothing important, you two young men … "
"Lord, Lord."
The eyes of a short-haired, quick-witted young man lit up as he said hastily, "Haven't the higher-ups been looking for a young lady? We found her. "
"What young lady?" The old man frowned.
"The one they were looking for three years ago. The mission hasn't been revoked yet, right?" the other simple-looking young man said excitedly.
"Whew!"
The old man stood up abruptly. His gaze was as sharp as a sword as he stared at the two young men. He asked anxiously, "You found her? Where is she? " It was the lowest level mission in the organization. Of course, they didn't know the status of the young lady the organization was looking for. However, the old man was considered a middle-level person. He knew.
"She's in Nanxing County!" The simple-looking young man said hastily, "We saw it with our own eyes. It's definitely true."
"You're not mistaken? She's in Nanxing County?" The old man's breathing became unstable.
He knew very well …
Ever since that high and mighty young mistress left, the organization was in an uproar. She was the number one Beast Taming Grandmaster that the organization had pinned their hopes on. In terms of status, she was even higher than a Golden Dan Innate Expert. Such a Beast Taming Master had suddenly disappeared. How could the organization not look for him everywhere?
"Yes, it was in the Nanxing County. The two of us dare to swear," the two young men said hastily.
"Alright!"
The old man took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. He glanced at the two young men and said, "This matter has not been confirmed yet, so there's no need to tell the Lord Protector for now. Both of you come with me … and investigate carefully. If it's true, the two of you will be promoted at least two levels, maybe even three. "
The two young men looked at each other with excitement in their eyes.
"Let's go."
The old man immediately led the two young men. At the same time, he also dispatched some people to investigate the Nanxing County's Li Mansion. With the powerful connections of this organization in the dark, the guards and maids in the Li Residence were directly hired by Teng Qingshan and the others. Their loyalty was not exaggerated, so this organization easily found out the information they wanted to know.
…
Half a day later, in a luxurious mansion:
"Old Brother Wang, are you sure you didn't investigate wrongly?" The seemingly elegant middle-aged man widened his eyes.
"Yes, it's the Goddess!"
The old man hastily said excitedly, "I've already investigated … There's no mistake. Moreover, the Goddess's name is Li Jun, and this mansion is called the Li Mansion. Secondly … the Mistress of the Li Mansion looks almost the same as the Goddess. Apart from this, we found out from the guards and maids of the Li Mansion that there is often a huge eagle in the Li Mansion. Although the huge eagle rarely flies in the sky, they often see the huge eagle in the inner courtyard through the bricks, tiles, and doors. "
"The Goddess knows how to tame beasts, Lord Protector." The old man stared at the middle-aged man and said, "The Mistress of the Li Mansion is most likely the Goddess!"
"It's been more than three years. The Sect Leader has been looking for the Goddess. I didn't expect that we would find her." The middle-aged man revealed an excited smile. He could not help but pat the old man's shoulder. "Old Brother Wang, if we succeed this time, I'm afraid I'll have to leave the Nanxing County. At that time, the position of Protector will be yours."
The old man chuckled.
"I'm also benefiting from Lord Protector. By the way, Lord Protector. " The old man frowned and said, "According to our investigation, the Goddess is the mistress of the Li Mansion, and there's also a young master … They're husband and wife. This news … "
"The Goddess's marriage is indeed a big matter." The middle-aged man frowned.
The art of taming beasts was extremely important.
After all, in the Land of the Nine Prefectures, some sects like Qing Hu Island and the powerful Ying Family didn't know the art of taming beasts. The art of taming beasts was definitely not allowed to be taught to outsiders … Logically, Li Jun's marriage shouldn't be with an outsider. Even if she wanted to marry, it should be with an insider.
"According to the Goddess's temper, and the information we received …" The middle-aged man pondered and said, "The Goddess's man is probably the expert known as the Demon Arada, one of the three Foreign Dignitaries, Lord Huhe."
"Lord Huhe?" The old man froze.
In the past, Teng Qingshan used the identity of Huhe and displayed his strength in the God of Heaven Mountain. Even the First Godly General, Borileimu, was defeated by him. In the end, he was even invited by the God of Heaven of the God of Heaven Mountain and became the third Foreign Dignitary of the God of Heaven Palace.
"Finding Lord Huhe's traces is also a big matter." The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "However, according to the information you received and the descriptions of the maids and guards, this Lord Li's appearance is obviously different from Lord Huhe's … However, there are still human skin masks in this world."
"Maybe it's Lord Huhe!" The old man smiled and said, "If that's the case, we'll have made a great contribution!"
"Yes, let's quickly inform the High Priestess."
That night, a messenger pigeon flew out of Nanxing County and headed towards Qingzhou.
*****
When the messenger pigeon flew towards Qingzhou, Teng Qingshan and the others were on their way to Jiangning County. The journey took them three to four days. On the afternoon of the fourth day, the group finally arrived at Jiangning County City. However … during the journey, Teng Qingshan was very relaxed. He sat in the carriage and cultivated quietly.
Teng Qingshan's heart was in harmony with the vast earth, and he could feel the aura of the earth.
He had already created the eighth move of the 《Earth Element Fist》. Only the ninth move was left.
… …
Jiangning County, in a dark warehouse of the Gui Yuan Sect.
Clang!
Along with a loud noise, the third extra-large wooden box fell. "Sizzle ~ ~" The pine resin on the torches sizzled and burned. A total of six torches lit up the entire warehouse. Dressed in a loose moon-white cloak, Zhuge Yuan-hong ordered, "All of you, get out."
"Yes, Sovereign."
The eight disciples of the Gui Yuan Sect who were moving the boxes immediately left. Elder Wu waved his hand and the door of the warehouse closed automatically.
Immediately, only Teng Qingshan, Elder Wu, and Zhuge Yuan-hong were left in the warehouse.
"Qingshan, is this the Fiery Gilt Steel you were talking about?" Zhuge Yuanhong walked to the front of a huge wooden box and lightly patted the lid. Immediately, some of the nails on the lid flew away. Then, he easily lifted the lid and the lid fell to the ground.
"Such a big box and so much Fiery Gilt Steel. Even eight elite disciples were able to move it here easily. It seems that the Fiery Gilt Steel is very light." Elder Wu walked over and picked up a piece of blood-red Fiery Gilt Steel. The Fiery Gilt Steel was pure blood-red without any impurities. It was very beautiful.
"It is very light." Elder Wu weighed it and said, "It is much lighter than ordinary steel. It seems that a battle armor is indeed very light."
"Teacher, Elder Wu." Teng Qingshan looked at the Fiery Gilt Steel Ores in the box and smiled. "In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, the hardest ores are the Ten Millennia Coldsteel, which can only be found at the bottom of the North Sea, and the Tungsten Blood Steel, which can only be found in the Desolate Land."
The Ten Millennia Coldsteel could be found in the Frost Jade Pool of the Great Yan Mountain, but it couldn't be mined.
"However, both the Ten Millennia Coldsteel and the Tungsten Blood Steel are extremely rare. Moreover, they are extremely heavy. " Teng Qingshan picked up a piece of Fiery Gilt Steel and said, "In terms of hardness, the Fiery Gilt Steel is only slightly inferior to the Ten Millennia Coldsteel. It is much stronger than the Darksteel. Even a Hollow Dan Innate Expert couldn't pierce through it with a single sword strike! "
Zhuge Yuan-hong squeezed with force, but the Fiery Gilt Steel in his hand didn't change. Zhuge Yuan-hong exerted force.
Crack ~ ~
A crack appeared on the Fiery Gilt Steel.
"Tsk, tsk. It's really hard. I had to use all my strength to squeeze it with one hand." Zhuge Yuan-hong revealed a pleasantly surprised expression. "If I were to stab it with a sword, I would need to reach the True Dan Innate Expert Realm to be able to pierce through it."
"Teacher, Elder Wu, the most important thing now is … the forging method!"
Teng Qingshan said solemnly, "In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, we don't have any experience in forging the Fiery Gilt Steel. It isn't easy to forge the Fiery Gilt Steel, and it requires some time." Different ores required different forging methods to forge weapons. Some metals might be very hard, but their melting point might not be higher than metals that weren't hard.
"In the Gui Yuan Sect, there are many skilled weaponsmiths. We will definitely be able to forge the Fiery Gilt Steel into battle armor," Zhuge Yuan-hong said.
After witnessing the characteristics of the Fiery Gilt Steel, Teng Qingshan understood.
A troop of cavalrymen clad in Fiery Gilt Steel Battle Armor was probably even more terrifying than the cavalrymen of the Northeastern King, Hong Tian! If even a Hollow Dan Innate Expert couldn't pierce through it with a single sword strike, then who would be able to stop such a troop of cavalrymen?
Among the treasures that Teng Qingshan had brought, the Fiery Gilt Steel was undoubtedly the most important!
… …
That night, the Gui Yuan Sect arranged for six experienced weaponsmiths to study the Fiery Gilt Steel in detail. They wanted to forge a set of battle armor using the Fiery Gilt Steel.
"This isn't right. Why isn't the Fiery Gilt Steel melting?"
"There's something wrong with the Iron Dissolving Potion."
Teng Qingshan's jinx was right. It was extremely difficult to forge the Fiery Gilt Steel. The weaponsmiths had used many methods to forge the Fiery Gilt Steel. The melting point of the Fiery Gilt Steel was extremely high. Although Teng Qingshan had memorized the methods used in the Duanmu Continent, some of the required materials couldn't be found in the Land of the Nine Prefectures.
"It seems like there's going to be some trouble," Teng Qingshan said softly to Zhuge Yuan-hong with a frown as he stood in a corner.
Zhuge Yuan-hong nodded. There was a hint of worry between his brows.
"It's alright. When we first discovered the Tungsten Blood Steel and the Ten Millennia Coldsteel, we spent a lot of time to find a way to forge weapons with them. Even some rare natural treasures could be used to forge weapons. The Fiery Gilt Steel? We will definitely find a way within ten days, "Zhuge Yuan-hong said.
