Chapter 234 Enter the Capital To Meet The Emperor
“Let me see it!” Li Xinfan and Ni Xuetian reached out their hands and shouted almost at the same time.
Master Lu was stunned. He held back the excitement and shock as he was feeling troubled.
Li Xinfan was the commanding general in the military camp, whereas Ni Xuetian was a great ancestor from Changlong’s Ni family. Since Master Lu had learned the path of runes from the Ni family, he was obviously familiar with the latter.
Even so, the master could not afford to offend any one of the big bosses.
Ni Xuetian quickly came back to his senses and uttered with a smile, “Brother Li, please.”
“Excuse me.” Li Xinfan did a fist salute then went forward to take the military saber without any hesitation.
The general was neither an appraiser nor a blacksmith, but as a powerful martial artist and after being in the military for many years, he could tell a weapon’s quality at one glance. In actuality, the military saber was nothing much to Li Xinfan. Based on his status, he could easily acquire an Attribute Military Saber at the peak of Fine Grade, let alone a Good Grade military saber.
Nonetheless, the general’s hand shook when he held the military saber.
The saber seemed to be heavier than a magic tool to him.
Good Grade—it was indeed a Good Grade military saber. Moreover, it was not a saber that was smithed through hard work, but one that was upgraded from a Common Grade military saber by carving a rune on it. “Hahaha! Hahaha…” Li Xinfan laughed out loud all of a sudden and simply disregarded his n.o.ble status; he laughed like an unrestrained madman.
Nevertheless, n.o.body around him belittled him because of that. In particular, the eyes of Master Lu and the other protectors became faintly red.
The Military Saber Upgrade Rune, which was desired by many, was finally born!
Although the Rune Mold was still unsatisfactory because it was only a prototype, given that there was a good start, perfecting it would not be out of reach.
It was similar to walking in the dark; without any clues, finding the right direction would be as difficult as scaling the heavens. On the contrary, if there was a light ahead as guidance, even if it was dim, they would be confident enough to walk to the end of the
path.
Li Xinfan finally stopped laughing after a long time. He lifted his robe abruptly and bowed his head to the ground at Ou Yangming
Ou Yangming was initially smiling with his eyes squinted because Li Xinfan was wild with joy.
At that moment, he felt that a month’s worth of hard work was worth it.
Who knew, Li Xinfan, the mighty Supreme Great Ancestor, did such a big salutation.
As such, Ou Yangming’s face changed, and he moved away without any hesitation and asked, “General, what are you doing?” Li Xinfan did not get up. In fact, Master Lu, w.a.n.g Leshui, and the other people from the military kowtowed at the young fellow too after some time.
On the other hand, Ni Xuetian s.h.i.+fted backward, but he looked at Ou Yangming with admiration and respect.
The young fellow actually did it.
Old Craftsman was startled, and he immediately went forward to help Li Xinfan up. With a pale face, he commented, “General Li, you’re going to shorten that young fella’s life if you do this—you mustn’t do this!”
The old man was the Immense Forest Military Camp’s chief Military Fire Blacksmith, which was a status not worth mentioning for Li Xinfan.
Despite that, Li Xinfan dared not ignore Old Craftsman’s other ident.i.ty.
Ou Yangming’s guardian and mentor.
Therefore, when Old Craftsman did his best to help Li Xinfan get up, the general stood up without resisting. General Li sighed. “Old Craftsman, Master Ou designed a rune to upgrade military sabers, which is a huge favor for the Humans; my salutation is nothing compared to that.”
Old Craftsman shook his head and persisted. “General Li, you’re exaggerating it; it’s just a military saber. Besides, the rune is incomplete and is far from perfect.” Li Xinfan forced a smile, but he was not daring enough to tell Old Craftsman the real reason behind it. He turned to smile apologetically at Ou Yangming. “Master Ou, I won’t say much. All in all, if you need someone to run errands for you in the future, I, Li Xinfan, and everyone in Changlong’s military camp will take all risks, go to all lengths, and will never refuse to help!”
“Take all risks, go to all lengths!” Everyone else roared, causing an intense masculine aura to fill the air, which was soul-stirring.
“Everyone, you’re being too polite.” Ou Yangming chuckled and added after a pause, “Since this rune is effective, it proves that my idea is right. That said, more time is needed for testing if I’d like to complete the rune, so please lend me a helping hand.”
Li Xinfan raised his eyebrows and expressed out loud, “Master Ou, please let us know if there’s anything you need; we’ll get it for you.”
Ou Yangming laughed and glanced at Ni Xuetian.
