Chapter 475: Chapter 173: Divine Weapon Villa! Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon!_3

The Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon, a taboo within the Divine Weapon Villa!

It’s because the Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon can restrain the Immortal Body of the Demon Monsters, which would undoubtedly provoke their hostility. Hence, from ancient times, the Divine Weapon Villa had never forged a Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon, let alone claimed that they could create one.

If it were to arouse the dread of some powerful Demon Monsters, it could lead to the annihilation of the entire Villa!

With a wry smile, Lu Ya said, “Little Friend Su, you should just discuss this matter with me. The Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon… let alone me, even our Manor Lord can’t create it, and as for what it is exactly and what marvelous properties it possesses, I have no idea.”

“Is that so?”

Hearing this, Su Changkong was somewhat disappointed. He didn’t know whether Lu Ya was lying or if the Divine Weapon Villa truly could not forge the Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon.

“May I work at the Divine Weapon Villa for a while? I am very fond of forging, and in the future, I intend to create a Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon with my own hands!”

In the end, Su Changkong compromised and spoke with utter sincerity.

Lu Ya did say that the Divine Weapon Villa lacked the technique and ability to create a Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon, but having observed their weapons before, Su Changkong could tell that their forging skills and techniques were quite exquisite. Hence, he proposed to work for some time within the Divine Weapon Villa.

Su Changkong indeed loved forging–it was his passion–and knowing how to create a Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon in the future would surely require forging skill as support. Forearmed is forewarned; practicing forging was also beneficial.

Besides, forging was not an art limited to creating mere tools; Su Changkong had previously honed his Blade Qi into Blade Gang through his forging skill.

All methods in the world are interconnected; anything that can enhance one’s power cannot be said to fall outside the scope of Martial Arts!

Just like how some swordsmen practice calligraphy, the essence is to comprehend Martial Arts by analogy.

Su Changkong truly had no ulterior motives; he simply wished to learn forging skill. Therefore, he was open and honest; if he had appeared secretive and made up excuses or reasons, it would have only invited suspicion. Better to state his intentions directly!

These words made Lu Ya frown tightly. Although, according to his observation, the handsome young man in front of him seemed as ordinary as any other person, the fact that he had exceptional forging skill and even harbored ambitions for the Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon showed that he was far from ordinary!

Such a mysterious young man wishing to stay at the Divine Weapon Villa?

Seeing Su Changkong’s sincere demeanor, Lu Ya finally said, “I will need to consult the Manor Lord on this matter.”

“That would be much appreciated,” Su Changkong said politely.

Thereafter, Lu Ya asked Su Changkong to wait and went to find the Manor Lord of the Divine Weapon Villa.

Within the Divine Weapon Villa, in one of the forging rooms, the grooves on the ground carried flowing earth-fire, with a temperature so intense it could dehydrate and shock someone within a short amount of time.

“Clang! Clang! Clang!”

A burly man wielding a heavy hammer continuously pounded on the weapon on the anvil. His muscular arms were powerful, his flesh covered in sinewy muscle, and every hammer blow seemed to make the entire house tremble.

The burly man was tall and sturdy, around forty, with black curly beard, thick brows, and large eyes, his appearance rough yet commanding.

“Uncle Lu, is there something you need?”

Sensing something, the burly man stopped forging, grabbed a jug of wine, took several gulps, and then looked towards Lu Ya waiting at the door, asking.

This burly man was none other than Villa Owner Nangong Ming of the Divine Weapon Villa.

Nangong Ming was not only a ‘Divine Craftsman’ with exceptional weapon forging skill but also a Martial Artist with unfathomable depth in Martial Arts. Even the Great Flame Royal Family had once sent people to court him, promising many benefits.

But Nangong Ming refused because he did not want outsiders to taint the ancestral business handed down by his forefathers.

“Today, a young man named Su Tailai came to the Villa…”

Lu Ya recounted the details of Su Changkong’s visit to Nangong Ming.

“He possesses exceptional forging skill, able to deduce the forging process and techniques merely by touching and observing the weapons? And he claims he wants to forge a Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon himself?”

Upon hearing this, a trace of intrigue flashed in Nangong Ming’s eyes.

The Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon was something that any Forging Master dreams of creating–their ultimate masterpiece, worth giving their life for!

History was not short of Weapon Forging Masters who, in order to create legendary swords or blades that would be remembered for thousands of years, performed Blood Sacrifices using their relatives or even themselves.

“He wants to forge a Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon by himself in the future? If this young man has potential and ambition, then let him stay!”

After pondering for a moment, a smile appeared on Nangong Ming’s lips, and he laughed heartily.

“Yes.”

Seeing Nangong Ming’s agreement, Lu Ya nodded.

Lu Ya knew that Nangong Ming agreed because the young man had expressed his desire to forge a Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon. Nangong Ming, being the Manor Lord of the Divine Weapon Villa and having forged Divine Weapons for countless Martial Artists from Central State, also wished to create a Demon-Slicing Divine Weapon before his death–it was his own desire!

With a young person sharing the same ambition, Nangong Ming naturally offered his support.

In the reception hall of the Divine Weapon Villa, Lu Ya returned and met with Su Changkong.

“Little Friend Su, the Manor Lord has agreed to your staying at the Divine Weapon Villa. As for the conditions, they will be the same as for the others in the Villa, and the Villa will take forty percent of any earnings,” Lu Ya told Su Changkong, making it clear that Su Changkong wouldn’t work for free.

“Thank you, Elder Lu and Villa Owner Nangong!”

Su Changkong’s eyes brightened as he expressed his gratitude.

The fact that Nangong Ming agreed so readily to let him stay was beyond his expectations. Although he had not yet met him, he imagined that Nangong Ming was a man not fussed with trifles, a person with a broad and generous heart!
