C123 (1/2)

In the blink of an eye, it was already midwinter.

The unsuccessful Martial Arts Competition had gradually become a memory in the martial arts world. Although it had always been something they had pursued, as long as the new year passed, people would have basically forgotten about it.

Lin Xuanzi was the same.

Even though he had experienced the pain of losing a nephew, even though he was also very concerned right now, Lin Xuanzi was still a mortal after all.

Therefore, it seemed as if he had begun to walk out of that dark area and start a new life.

Moreover, it was in Iron Sword Villa.

However, the Iron Sword Villa was no longer the same villa as before.

Tie Xiaoyun's family had narrowly escaped death during the last Martial Arts Competition. This made him realize that not only was an earth-shattering event happening in the martial arts world, it was also just the beginning! Even though he had yet to figure out the answer to that sudden and strange matter, this Martial Master with his vast experience in the martial arts world had made a wise choice — — retire from the martial arts world.

Of course, he had never cared about his life or death.

However, Iron Cliff could give up the reputation and foundation built up by generations, but he couldn't give up on the incense of the Iron family. This was because his foundation could be rebuilt, and Tie Wushuang could also have his own future career, as long as he could live on in peace.

That was the main point.

Therefore, the original huge Iron Sword Villa's manor had now been replaced by a temple.

Temple of Deqing.

The name had been thought up by Iron Lantern himself. It was designed to nurture the good and nurture the virtuous, so as to bring peace and blessings to the Iron family.

On the day of opening of the temple on October 15th, Iron Lantern invited Magister Li Hongren of Fa Hai Temple to preside over the temple. Li Hongren was originally a palace eunuch, but was assigned to take over the position as the abbot of the Pharaoh Temple's Scriptures Pavilion.) He had never thought that in just two or three months' time, there would be an endless stream of people coming to the temple every day to pray for blessings.

Iron Cliff saw this, and he was happy in his heart. Other than meditating at the back of the mountain, he would come to the Temple of Deqing to lecture on buddhism to Mage Li Hongren whenever he had time. Life was naturally carefree and happy.

Compared to the monastery at the front, the back of the mountain was even more lively!

After two months of refurbishment, the abandoned Iron Sword Stove at the back of the mountain had been completely renovated! Not only had the original layout been rearranged, the scale had also increased. And during this process, Tie Wushuang had made the limelight. He had displayed the craftsmanship and craftsmanship that was unique to the Tie Family's ancestors to the point where he surpassed the Blue. Even Tie Xiao Yun was amazed at how Tie Wushuang had managed to find five hundred craftsmen to complete such a vast project within two months!

”Unparalleled Sword Furnace!”

Tie Wushuang was definitely more creative than his father. He was so proud of the name he had chosen.

Of course Tie Xiaoyun was satisfied.

Although he did not wish for Tie Wushuang to become famous in the martial arts world. Being famous was indeed not a good thing.

However, Tie Wushuang did not care and said, Since you want to do it, then do it to the best of your abilities!

For now, he was doing just that.

One by one, domed stone houses lined up on the lakeside.

In the white domed stone house, Tie Wushuang had been enlightened by the ”Sun City” and had designed his ”Unparalleled Sword Furnace” forging shop to be a unique building with Western characteristics. The effect was truly great!

Among the green mountains and rivers, many round houses were filled with tinkling sounds as fireworks filled the air. Most of the 200 craftsmen invited were old craftsmen who had worked in the Iron Sword Villa before. Although most of them were already in their seventies or eighties, from the momentum of their hammering, they seemed to be even more spirited than before!

Tie Wushuang laughed!

He was sitting on a bamboo chair. He rested his hands on the back of his head and stretched his legs, casually placing them on a stone table in front of him. He was lazy and content.

Lying down, to be exact.

He was like this almost every day.

This was the small pavilion that his father had used to cultivate in the past. After rebuilding the small pavilion, it became a good place for him and Brother Lin to play chess and chat. This place allowed one to clearly see the sword furnace that was ten feet away from them from a high vantage point.

”Hahahaha …” Tie Wushuang laughed out loud. He stood up, lifted the teapot to his mouth and sucked on it.

”What a joke!” ”Hmph!” On a large stone board next to a small stream, when Tie Ruyu heard his laughter, she raised her head and yelled at Tie Wushuang, ”Can't you come and help!?” As he said this, he jumped and tried his best to dry the clothes in his hands on a bamboo pole about five feet above his head. He had tried six times, but he still could not reach it! Under the morning sun, beads of sweat could clearly be seen on his forehead.

”Are you sure?!” Who told you to raise it this high! ” He shouted angrily at Tie Wushuang. If Tie Wushuang had not smiled just now, he would have been better off. When Iris was washing Brother Lin's clothes by the stream, she didn't pay any attention to her brother who was sunning himself on them.

”Aiya, aren't your Qing Gong very powerful? Why did some people become more and more foolish now? ”Haha …” Tie Wushuang sipped a mouthful of tea and tilted his head as he smiled at Tie Rui.

”Humph!” ”Go and die!” Li Mei's bare feet pushed off the ground, causing the ground to flutter like a silver swallow. Her hands shook in the air, and the water droplets on her clothes started to radiate a golden light towards Tie Wushuang who was lying on the ground.

Ah!” ”Heh —” Tie Wushuang was caught off guard and did not expect his sister to use this move. He waved his hands in fright and covered his face as he cried out.

Hahahaha …” Still laughing! I told you to laugh! ”Humph!” A burst of bell-like laughter filled the air. Tie Ruidao's arms lightly spread out as the clothes in his hands slowly fell onto the bamboo pole. His body spun and he fell to the ground. He placed his hands on his waist and raised his phoenix-like eyebrows as he made a face at Tie Wushuang. Why isn't she laughing anymore? ”Ahh!” ”With a twist of his body, he took the basin and slipped into the small room beside it.

”Hey!” You damned girl! ”How dare you, brother!” Tie Wushuang raised his sleeves to wipe the water off his head as he continuously muttered to Tie Ruyu. When he got up, he saw that she was nowhere to be seen.

”Hey, Brother Lin!” ”Have you finished your training?” He heard Iris shouting in the room.

”En — —” Lin Xuanzi appeared at the door, stretching lazily as he looked outside.

”Sigh ~ Big Brother Lin, come and drink some water, you should be thirsty from practicing martial arts …” A moment later, Rui-Mei came out of Lin Xuanzi's arms with a teacup and placed it next to his mouth.

”Ugh …” Lin Xuanzi stared blankly for a moment before hurriedly taking the cup from her. ”Thank you …” ”Hehe.” Lin Xuanzi's condition seemed to have improved a lot recently.

”Tch!” Tie Wushuang quickly took out a book from his chest and pretended to read.

”Brother Lin, let's go inside the house to chat!” ”There's someone here studying, we can't disturb him. Otherwise, if he doesn't manage to forge the 'Mysterious God iron' someday, he'll have to blame it on us!” Li Rou pulled Lin Xuanzi's arm and glanced at Tie Wushuang, who was reading a book. The last sentence was purposefully spoken with a raised voice.

”Hey!” I say, little girl! — — ”Tie Wushuang sat up abruptly, and then looked at Lin Xuanzi with a smile,” Haha, Big Brother Lin has finished his practice! ”

”Ignore him, let's go in!” Without saying a word, ironically, she dragged Lin Xuanzi into the house.

”Ai …” ”Ai …”

”Clang!”

As Tie Ruimei entered, she kicked the back of her right foot and the door slammed shut. He heard Lin Xuanzi wailing non-stop inside.

”Hahahaha …” Both of Tie Wushuang's legs went around the table as he stood up from his chair. He flipped the book over and slapped it in his palm. He glanced at the door, shook his head, and paused. He placed his hands behind his back and prepared to leave.

”Young Lord!”

At the other end of the stone bridge, a monk was shouting loudly towards them.

”Hmm?” Tie Wushuang was startled. He turned around and immediately walked towards that direction. ”Heh heh, so it's Brother Jing Xin. Hey, is something the matter?” As Tie Wu walked, he cupped his hands towards the monk. In a few steps, he was right in front of the monk.

”Young Lord, Lord Zhu has sent someone to pull the weapon!” Monk Jing Xin said.

This Tranquil Heart Monk was Tie Wushuang's friend who had grown up together with him. His original name was Li Datou. His parents had died when he was young, so he was living a poor life. It was a good thing that Iron Sword Villa gave them financial aid. Li Datou worked in the Manor as a laborer, so he did not have to worry about his life. Ever since Iron Sword Villa had changed to the Church of Deqing, he had always wanted to go out with them. Thus, Tie Wushuang had helped him find a place to boil water and cook in the temple kitchen.

And now, the reason why Tie Wushuang's ”Unparalleled Sword Furnace” was so big was all because he had thought of a way to change the tradition of only practicing Divine Weapons in the Iron Sword Villa and to commercialize this ancestral refining method. On one hand, he could continue to pass on his Cast Sword Technique, and on the other hand, he could still earn a lot of money. Only Tie Wushuang could think of this. That was why hundreds of people were asked to forge all kinds of weapons day and night. They were then sold to the government, the imperial army, the escort company, and even the wild grass that dominated the mountain as a king.

He didn't expect this move to be so effective. As soon as he opened the store, he received a large order from the local government official Zhu to forge fifty thousand pikes. In a short period of time, he had received dozens of specialized orders. Tie Wushuang was overjoyed!
