Chapter 173: The Second Brother's Success
“Matser Yuan actually agreed?” Zhen Tianyi looked stunned.
He and the other party were considered old acquaintances, so he was familiar with the other’s temperament.
Since rules had been established, they couldn’t be easily broken.
But this result clearly exceeded his expectations.
“How did you manage this?” Zhen Tianyi restrained his emotions and asked.
Qin Feng explained the ins and outs of the matter in detail.
After listening, Zhen Tianyi rubbed his chin and smiled, “So that’s how it is. The old man loves to mess around with these strange things. But I never thought that your mind also harbors such novel knowledge that can pique the old man’s interest.”
On the side, Yu Mei’s lips curled up slightly, nodding in approval.
Qin An, upon hearing this, clenched his fists and took a deep breath.
His elder brother worked tirelessly for his future, and although it sounded casual, he understood that seeking favors from others was not such a smooth journey.
“I must not let down my elder brother’s intentions. I will learn the art of the knife from Senior Zhen Tianyi well. Someday, I will also be able to shield my elder brother and the Qin family from wind and rain!” Qin An silently pledged in his heart.
“Senior Zhen Tianyi, did you personally bring the materials for forging the knife to Master Zhou, or do the juniors do it for you?” Qin Feng asked eagerly.
After all, the sooner the knife is forged, the sooner the matter of taking in disciples could be settled.
Zhen Tianyi lowered his head in contemplation. Then, with a wave of his right hand, a tooth-like object about five feet long and a foot wide appeared out of thin air in the courtyard.
“What is this?” Qin Feng asked with curiosity on his face.
Even if it was a broken tooth, the residual power on it made him feel a bit uneasy.
“Near the Huorong Mountain in the Southern Territory, there was once an elephant monster with a power reaching the seventh-level calamity force, nearly half the height of a mountain.
In order to gain stronger power, it devoured living beings, destroying over ten cities overnight and flattening three large mountains.
At that time, I was ordered by Chief to go and kill this monster.” Zhen Tianyi reminisced.
“This beast was not easy to deal with, with thick skin and flesh, especially these ivory teeth, extremely hard. It actually shattered my previous favorite knife.
In a fit of anger, I turned my bones into a knife and finally killed the monster. Then I thought, since the ivory of this elephant monster is so tough, it is an excellent material for forging weapons.
So, I brought it to the Master Yuan of the Imperial Capital’s Divine Workshop, and that’s how this Sky Cutting Knife was born.”
After Zhen Tianyi finished speaking, he lifted the silver-white long knife and gently stroked the blade.
“Turning bones into a knife is a technique that can only be performed at the fourth level, Concealed Weapon Realm. However, that elephant monster could shatter Lord Mad Blade dagger. How terrifying must its strength have been?” Qin Feng pondered.
Zhen Tianyi continued, “The elephant monster is called the Diamond White Elephant, possessing two indestructible ivory tusks. One of them has already been used to make the Sky Cutting Knife.
The remaining one, you should take to Master Yuan and let him forge a weapon for your second brother.”
Qin Feng, Second Brother, and Hei Tan Tou, upon hearing this, showed expressions of surprise.
The parts of a seventh-level calamity force monster were all invaluable, let alone the ivory that could be made into the Twelve Supreme Weapons?
Qin Feng immediately clasped his fists, “Senior Zhen Tianyi’s kindness, the Qin family will never forget.”
Second Brother and Hei Tan Tou also expressed their respect.
Zhen Tianyi waved his hand and got back to the main topic, “I think you should know that once the forging of the knife is completed, the master-disciple relationship is established.
But as one of the Twelve Divine General of the Southern Territory, I cannot stay in one place all year round. I need to travel around, slaying demons and ghosts.”
Then, Zhen Tianyi turned to Second Brother, “Originally, I wanted to take you with me to travel in the Southern Territory, letting you grow through life and death trials. However, as it stands now, you are still a bit too weak.”
Qin Feng, upon hearing this, smirked. A eighteen-year-old sixth-level Gathering Energy Martial Warrior was considered weak? What did that make him?
But upon careful consideration, he understood. Demons and Ghosts that required the intervention of the Twelve Divine Generals had a strength of at least sixth-level calamity force.
Entities like that give birth to some powerful and bizarre abilities, as normal as it may seem.
Second Brother’s current strength is indeed not sufficient. He turned his head to the side, Second Brother lowered his head, his right hand tightly gripping a narrow-bladed knife.
Zhen Tian smiled at the scene, “But you don’t need to be too discouraged. When you reach the fifth-grade divine realm, I will come to take you away to explore the southern region.
However, at that time, your family must agree, or I won’t be able to take you.”
While saying this, Zhen Tian casually glanced in the direction of the Qin Mansion’s hall, then smoothly withdrew his gaze.
Yu Mei, upon hearing this, lightly spoke, “To take someone away, if reason doesn’t work, there are naturally other ways.”
There must be a way, but it might not be so gentle, she added in her mind.
Listening to this, it’s obvious they intend to use force!
Zhen Tian, upon hearing this, glanced meaningfully at Yu Mei, his expression strange.
Qin Feng naturally caught the hidden meaning in the words, widened his eyes, and hastily said, “It won’t come to that. I think my parents should agree.”
Although he said so, his father also mentioned that he didn’t expect his children to bring glory to the family, he just wanted to live safely.
Traveling through the southern region with Senior Zhen Tianyi, slaying demons and ghosts, is much more dangerous than joining the Demon Slayer Department to heal and save people.
“Well, If my second brother wants to step into the realm of fifth-grade Divine Power Realm, it won’t happen overnight.
When the time comes, we’ll talk about it.” Qin Feng sighed inwardly.
On the other side, in the Qin Mansion’s hall, Qin Jian’an was blowing on the steaming tea.
On the surface of the tea, two tea leaves floated back and forth, one slowly sinking.
Not long after, the other leaf also sank.
Seeing this, the Second Mother curiously asked, “Father, why aren’t you drinking the tea?”
Qin Jian’an, upon hearing this, put down the teacup and inexplicably said, “These tea leaves will eventually sink to the bottom.”
The Second Mother chuckled, “Tea leaves that sink to the bottom are the best.”
Qin Jian’an was slightly stunned and gratified, “Yes, tea leaves that sink to the bottom are the best.”
After saying that, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The tea was a bit hot, with a strong fragrance.
The next day, Qin Feng carried the ivory of the Diamond White Elephant and the prepared high school physics textbook and went to the Demon Slayer Department.
When the Divine Workshop group opened the physics textbook, they couldn’t help but be attracted by the novel theories inside.
Their eyes lit up, as if they had found a treasure.
Some even excitedly declared that with the knowledge inside, they could forge artifacts that would astonish the world!
However, after Elder Yuan took the physics textbook and put it into his arms, their lofty ambitions were quelled.
Facing the resentful expressions of the group of little bunny kids, the elder coughed and said, “When I thoroughly study it, I will teach it to you.”
After speaking, he no longer paid attention to the burning gazes of those people, lowered his head, and looked at the huge white ivory, saying, “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen this thing.”
Qin Feng respectfully asked, “Elder, how long does it take to forge this knife?”
The white-haired old man pondered for a moment, sighed, and said, “Since we are forging the knife again, we naturally need to exert our full strength. If the forged knife is not as good as the previous knife of Zhen Tianyi, where can I put my old face?
Just go back and wait, wait for the moment the knife is finished.
You don’t need me to say it; you will know.”
Qin Feng was stunned, then extremely delighted.
In other words, his second brother’s knife is not weaker than the Sky Cutting Knife of the Twelve Supreme Weapons!
Moreover, at the moment the knife is finished, he will know without being told.
This means that there will be a natural phenomenon when the knife is finished!
Qin Feng nodded with understanding, then left the Demon Slaying Department with an excited heart.
“The matter of the second brother has finally come to an end. Next, I need to make good use of my time to cultivate.”
