“The person using the sword, average.”

This sentence seemed to echo in the air.

The experts ordered to protect Zhou Shu all had strange expressions on their faces. They cupped their hands and quickly disappeared.

Zhou Shu could even hear their suppressed laughter.

F*ck, I was despised by a little girl?

What does she mean by ‘good sword and good swordsmanship; the person using the sword, average’?

This is clearly saying that I’m not good enough for the Great Destroyer Sword and the Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords Technique?

Just now, I lost by a move because I didn’t show my true ability!

If I really wanted to make a move, you wouldn’t be able to withstand even one move!

Zhou Shu felt a little depressed. He didn’t care whether he won or lost, but being looked down upon by a little girl made him a little unhappy.

When he fought with Lu Wenshuang earlier, he didn’t even use the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique. He had only used the strength of a seventh-rank martial artist. Even using the Great Destroyer Sword was a bit strenuous with such strength, so using the Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords Technique was naturally greatly affected.

Although Lu Wenshuang had also suppressed her cultivation to the eighth rank of the Martial Dao, her cultivation in the Sword Dao was almost flawless. It was not strange at all that Zhou Shu had lost!

But he couldn’t explain it!

Unless he was willing to expose his strength and beat Lu Wenshuang!

But that would cause more trouble. Forget it. As a man, I won’t argue with a little girl like you, Zhou Shu thought gloomily. After throwing that bit of unhappiness out of his mind, Zhou Shu looked at Yin Chengshan.

Seeing Zhou Shu look over, Yin Chengshan hurriedly cupped his hands. “Greetings, Marquis.”

“General Yin, why are you here?” Zhou Shu smiled. “Oh right, aren’t you part of the Great Xia diplomatic mission this time?”

He had been in seclusion forging. It had been a while since he had seen Yin Chengshan. He was still curious about Yin Chengshan and the others’ performance during Great Xia’s military parade.

“Yes.” Yin Chengshan nodded. “Originally, I wanted to come over a long time ago, Marquis, but you’ve been in seclusion all along…” “What a coincidence,” Zhou Shu said as he raised the Great Destroyer Sword. “You came at the right time. I’ll take back this Great Destroyer Sword first.”

A hint of disappointment flashed across Yin Chengshan’s eyes. He knew that Zhou Shu had lent him the Great Destroyer Sword. It was already a blessing for him to be able to use it for a period of time. He shouldn’t have hoped for more.

Zhou Shu continued with a smile, “General Yin, you are a saber user. It’s not suitable for you to use a sword. It just so happens that I have recently forged a saber. Try and see if it is suitable for you.”

Yin Chengshan was stunned, and then an expression of disbelief appeared on his face. “Marquis-“

“Don’t say anything corny to me. I can’t stand it!” Zhou Shu hurriedly interrupted him.

Then he asked the steward to retrieve the saber.

“The last time I took your Black Iron Gold Crystal, I said I would help you forge a weapon. Now is a good time. I feel that this saber is quite suitable for you.”

Yin Chengshan’s expression was touched, and he seemed to want to say something.

Zhou Shu continued, “You don’t have to be touched. I’m not a good person. I’ll give you the weapon, but you have to pay!” “I should,” Yin Chengshan hurriedly said. “Even if I sell everything I have, I definitely won’t let you suffer a loss.”

“You don’t have to go so far as to sell everything you have. You can pay however much money you have. We’ll talk about the rest when you have more money.” Zhou Shu waved his hand.

Yin Chengshan’s eyes turned red. He was a seven-foot-tall man, yet he was so touched that he was about to cry.

The marquis is worried about my face. He doesn’t have to worry about selling ranked weapons. Who else would accept payment in installments like him?

The marquis is taking care of me!

“Look at the saber. Look at the saber first!”

Zhou Shu couldn’t stand such a mushy scene. He wasn’t doing a good deed.

After taking my weapon, you have to be a good worker.

All things considered, I still profited.

Fortunately, the steward had already brought the Flaming Sunset Saber over. Zhou Shu took it and casually threw it to Yin Chengshan.

“This saber is called the Flaming Sunset Saber. It was forged according to a previous forging formula. I heard that a general surnamed Tong once used it, but it was destroyed later on.

“Try the saber. If there’s anything you don’t understand, hurry up and ask.”

Yin Chengshan reached out and caught the golden-red saber that was almost as tall as a person. Although he hadn’t tried it yet, just by looking at the shape of the saber, he could tell that it had extraordinary power.

At first glance, he had already fallen in love with this saber.

“Wonderful saber!”

Yin Chengshan held the saber with both hands and brandished it.

Then he sent out a stream of spiritual essence.

“There are two star paths in the Flaming Sunset Saber. They are…” Zhou Shu said loudly.

The reason why a ranked weapon was a ranked weapon was because of the star paths within it. Under normal circumstances, when a martial artist obtained a ranked weapon, they would have to figure out the changes in the star paths themselves. It was just like how a martial artist had to first cultivate their breathing and sense the meridians in their body.

This process was the process of melding with the weapon.

The length of time depended on one’s aptitude and level.

After all, ranked weapons didn’t have an instruction manual, and martial artists could not see their internal structures. They could only use their spiritual essence to explore them. Although it was slightly easier than Forging Masters positioning stars, it still gave many martial artists a headache. Now that Zhou Shu was explaining it to him, Yin Chengshan didn’t need to figure out the internal star paths of the Flaming Sunset Saber himself.

His spiritual essence circulated within the star paths of the Flaming Sunset Saber.

A moment later, he felt that he had become one with the Flaming Sunset Saber. The Flaming Sunset Saber seemed to have become an extension of his arm.

Swoosh

Yin Chengshan brandished the Flaming Sunset Saber. The saber light filled the sky and rained down.

“Wonderful saber!” Yin Chengshan praised loudly once again. If not for the fact that this was the You Marquis’s mansion, he wouldn’t have been able to hold back his laughter.

“What’s good about it?” Zhou Shu curled his lips in disdain. “It didn’t even make it into the top ten of the Yellow-grade Armament Manual. What’s so good about that?”

Yin Chengshan smiled awkwardly. It’s not good if it doesn’t make it into the top ten of the Yellow-grade Armament Manual? The weapons I used in the past were probably ranked in the thousands on the Yellow-grade Armament Manual.

Aren’t those weapons rubbish to you then, Marquis? This Flaming Sunset Saber is already good enough for me!

He held the Flaming Sunset Saber in his arms like it was a treasure.

“Marquis, how much is this Flaming Sunset Saber?”

Previously, when he came to ask Zhou Shu for a saber, he had prepared a piece of Black Iron Gold Crystal and a thousand taels of gold.

This was almost everything he had.

Originally, he only wanted to ask for an ordinary ranked weapon.

Although Yin Chengshan didn’t know the exact ranking of this Flaming Sunset Saber in the Yellow-grade Armament Manual, he guessed that it would definitely enter the top 100!

The top 100 weapons in the Yellow-grade Armament Manual were all extremely valuable.

A piece of Black Iron Gold Crystal and a thousand taels of gold were definitely not enough.

Yin Chengshan was a little worried. I don’t have enough money. What should I do?

I can’t give up on this Flaming Sunset Saber, so I can only shamelessly accept the marquis’s kindness of allowing me to pay in installments.

“You can decide how much to give me,” Zhou Shu said nonchalantly.

He had never been proficient in the pricing of ranked weapons. In any case, it was fine as long as he didn’t incur losses. He had never expected to earn money through forging weapons.

To him, increasing his strength was the greatest profit. He just earned some money along the way. “I’ll decide how much to give you?” Yin Chengshan was stunned and almost knelt down in front of Zhou Shu. The marquis treats me with great kindness!

“Marquis, on this trip to Great Qin, my life is yours. As long as I don’t die, no one can dream of harming a single hair on your head!” Yin Chengshan gave Zhou Shu a military salute and punched his left shoulder with his right fist.

“This is a thousand taels of gold. I will pay the rest to you as soon as possible!”

After Yin Chengshan finished speaking, he carried his Flaming Sunset Saber and left without looking back. Throughout the entire process, Zhou Shu didn’t find a chance to interrupt. What is the meaning of this? Why would he want to die? Zhou Shu looked at the steward and wondered.

The steward was speechless. I take back my words. So all geniuses are abnormal. My marquis is also abnormal…

He actually doesn’t know how many martial artists are willing to risk their lives for a superior ranked weapon!

Outside the mansion, Lu Wenshuang was walking on the main road.

Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks.

A strand of hair fell from her left ear.

Lu Wenshuang reached out and pinched the hair between her slender fingers. The end of her hair was smooth, as if it had been cut by a sharp blade.

Her pupils suddenly contracted, and there seemed to be countless figures jumping within.

If anyone could see the scene in her eyes, they would definitely be able to tell that these figures were the result of her battle with Zhou Shu.

Every single move was replayed in her mind without a single mistake.

So that’s how it is. The Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords Technique is truly shocking.

I was wrong. The person using the sword is good too.

If he uses a more suitable sword, he will be able to perish with me within five moves unless my cultivation exceeds the seventh rank!

Thinking of this possibility, not only was Lu Wenshuang not depressed, but her eyes even shone with anticipation.

He is worthy of being the official envoy. He has the right to mobilize me.

Zhou Shu, when you become a grandmaster, I look forward to a real battle with you!

Lu Wenshuang turned around and glanced in the direction of the You Marquis’s mansion.

Achoo

In the You Marquis’s mansion, Zhou Shu sneezed.

He didn’t know what Lu Wenshuang was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely tell Lu Wenshuang, Sister, don’t think too much. I’m being magnanimous. If you’re more sensible, I’ll teach you how to be a better person.

After Yin Chengshan left, Zhou Shu did not immediately return to the forging room but asked the steward, “Steward, did anything important happen in the mansion in the last few days??”

“There have been many people who came to pay a visit to you, Marquis. I’ve recorded their names. You can take a look,” the steward said. “Then Eunuch Zhao from the palace came to deliver an appointment letter and asked me not to disturb you.”

Zhou Shu nodded. “Right, did Eunuch Zhao say when the Great Xia diplomatic mission will depart?”

“It’s the day after tomorrow,” the steward said. “I was thinking that if you still didn’t come out tomorrow, I would inform you.”

“So fast?” Zhou Shu was somewhat stunned. “It’s not fast,” the steward said. “You have been in seclusion for a month, Marquis.”

“Has it been that long?”

Zhou Shu had been immersed in the process of forging his weapons, so he had really neglected the passage of time. There was no sun or moon in the forging room. He had no idea how much time had passed. It’s a pity I didn’t have enough time. I worked so hard, but I could only forge a few weapons, Zhou Shu thought regretfully. Looks like I can only think of a way when we reach Great Qin.

For standard weapons, he could forge hundreds of them in a month.

Unfortunately, the forging process of ranked weapons was more than a hundred times more complicated than standard weapons. Even Zhou Shu’s forging speed was not that fast.

This was under the premise that he didn’t have to worry about the supply of materials.

One month was still too short. If he was given half a year to prepare, perhaps he would be more satisfied.

But this was obviously impossible. In another half a year, the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament would probably be carried out. At that time, it would be too late to go to Great

Qin.

“Steward, do we need to prepare anything? How’s the weather over in Great Qin?” Zhou Shu asked casually while thinking about weapons.

“All the miscellaneous items have been prepared. Someone from the princess’s residence helped to prepare them,” the steward said.

Zhou Shu raised his head and asked, “The princess’s residence? Has the grand minister been here recently?”

“I have not seen Her Highness for a few days.” The steward bowed.

“After I leave, help me thank her.” Zhou Shu pondered. “Although the princess’s residence doesn’t lack anything, when the time comes, you should also send some fruits and snacks over there. It can be considered a small token of goodwill from us.”

He had to return the favor. Since the princess’s residence had helped him prepare his luggage, he had to show some gratitude.

“I understand.” The steward nodded.

“Is there anything else?” Zhou Shu continued asking

“Sir Shi Songtao came again,” the steward said. “He said he hoped that you could make a trip to familiarize yourself with the diplomatic mission team before setting off.”

“Where have the people of the diplomatic mission gathered?” Zhou Shu asked. They were about to set off, so he really should meet with the diplomatic mission. After all, he was the leader.

The steward gave him an address, which Shi Songtao had left behind.

Zhou Shu nodded. In any case, they would leave the next day. It wouldn’t be too late to meet with the diplomatic mission tomorrow.

“The great general’s residence has also sent someone over to invite you to go over before setting off,” the steward continued. “The great general said that there are some things that he needs to explain to you.”

“Get someone to prepare a carriage. I’ll go to the great general’s residence to take a look later,” Zhou Shu said.

Great General Meng was the anchor for this diplomatic mission, so he had to meet him first.

“Yes.” The steward agreed and instructed a servant to prepare the carriage.

“Master left some banknotes for you to use on the way…” The steward took out a small wooden box and handed it to Zhou Shu. Inside the wooden box was a thick stack of banknotes. The denomination was 1,000 taels of silver. From the thickness, there were at least 20 bills!

It was at least twenty thousand taels of silver!

Zhou Shu: “…”
