Chapter 295 - The Imperial Familys Princess (1/2)
Chapter 295 The Imperial Family’s Princess
Ou Yangming nodded with a smile and asked, “How should I address you, miss?”
Although there was a brief confrontation, they developed a form of respect or each other.
“I’m Wu Hanning.”
Ou Yangming was shocked. “Ah, you have the dynasty’s surname. I was being discourteous.”
Back then, the Wu family rose and fought for the throne, then they built the dynasty from the capital, and their inheritance was pa.s.sed on for thousands of years. The Wu family’s ancestor was a proud person, who adopted the family’s name as the t.i.tle of the reigning dynasty. From then on, the Wu dynasty controlled the people in the world and was known as the irresistible lord.
Needless to say, there were many people with the surname Wu in the world, but not all of them were disciples from the imperial family. Even so, the fact that the young lady had such an appalling mental power proved that she was a blessed disciple from the imperial family.
The Intermediate Blacksmith, who collapsed to the ground, was baffled. He was the blacksmith a.s.signed to run errands for the imperial family, hence he was naturally aware of Wu Hanning’s ident.i.ty.
Nonetheless, Her Royal Highness had ordered him not to expose her ident.i.ty, so he dared not reveal anything even when Advanced Blacksmiths like Feng Guangyuan pressured him just now.
Who knew, the princess disclosed it herself. Even though she only told Ou Yangming her real name, how was it different from exposing her ident.i.ty as a part of the imperial family?
At that moment, the blacksmith thought that Her Royal Highness and Master Ou Yangming were too profound to be understood.
Wu Hanning waved her hand gently and said, “You may leave.”
“Yes.” The Intermediate Blacksmith, who led the way, forcefully stood up and left while trembling in fear. It was not that he wanted to embarra.s.s himself in front of Her Royal Highness, but he could not help it. Besides, he had reached his limit by dragging his s.h.i.+vering legs out of the room. “Master Ou, I’ll be at ease if you’re the one who’s taking up the task.” Wu Hanning fixed her gaze on the young fellow and said, “My uncle told me that your talent in smithing art is unparalleled. If anyone can perfectly upgrade my weapon’s equivalent rank, it’ll only be you.” Ou Yangming twitched his mouth, and he was at a loss.
“Young Lady Wu, who’s your uncle?”
Wu Hanning chuckled. “My uncle parted with you not long ago. Did you forget him already?”
The young fellow was stunned, but he quickly reacted to the situation. “Master Wu Hongxi?”
“That’s right.”
Ou Yangming had a strange look on his face because he was confused. “But according to my knowledge, when Master Wu Hongxi debuted, he told some people that he was not part of the imperial family.” Master Wu Hongxi’s t.i.tle as the Fine Grade King was so famous that his past achievements were spread far and wide, so Ou Yangming heard of him even when he was in Changlong County. “He focuses on the smithing path wholeheartedly and is proud, so he’s indifferent toward getting support from the imperial family. Though he didn’t change his surname, he never admitted his ident.i.ty as part of the family,” Wu Hanning explained while she shook her head. She paused and added, “But this isn’t a secret among the higher-ups in the capital.”
Ou Yangming’s eyelids twitched and thought, ‘No wonder Wu Hongxi was able to transfer many Advanced Blacksmiths from the imperial family to his workshop to study the smithing of a magic tool. On top of that, Master Jin Shengjie wasn’t too surprised when he knew about it as well, so he must’ve known.’ He nodded and cast aside his thought. “Young Lady Wu, where’s your weapon?”
Wu Hanning brushed her hand across her waist. Next, a vague light flashed for a split second, then a peculiar longsword was seen in her hand.
The longsword was slightly shorter than ordinary longswords, but its handle was much wider. It seemed like Wu Hanning could not fully control the weapon with her slender hand, but for some reason, Ou Yangming felt like the lady became one with the sword.
It was as though the longsword was a part of Wu Hanning’s body but was extended out.
Nevertheless, what shocked Ou Yangming was not the longsword but Wu Hanning’s motion when she retrieved it.
Ou Yangming gasped and uttered word by word, “An interspatial bag!”
Yes. He was certain that the longsword was drawn from an interspatial bag. Not only because Wu Hanning looked like she was performing magic when she retrieved the longsword, but most importantly, it was because he recognized the faint fluctuation of s.p.a.ce.
Wu Hanning grinned and said, “It’s a secret treasure pa.s.sed down in my family. Please keep it a secret for me, Master Ou.”
Ou Yangming nodded and hesitated for a while before he used his Military Fire to view the longsword’s attributes.
[Item: Distinguished longsword (Yellow)] (Equivalent Rank: Ordinary Tool, High Grade, Rank Five]
[Attributes: Sharpness +15, Toughness +15, Power +3, Ice Attribute Might +2, Durability 14]
(Skill: Freeze Combo (Rank One)] Ou Yangming’s face changed because the longsword’s attributes were astounding and unbelievable.
Perhaps High Grade Rank Five was an extremely rare equivalent rank for ordinary people, but it was not a big deal to blacksmith masters like Ou Yangming.
However, the three special properties on the longsword were moving.
Power +3 was the layering limit for most Advanced Blacksmiths, but as compared to the two other properties, 3 points of Power were not that great.
It was Ou Yangming’s first time seeing the Unique Attribute of Ice Attribute Might +2. He could not fully understand it, but he figured out its function based on its literal meaning. It was an attribute that allowed a certain increase in might when one released ice series power.
‘Looks like Young Lady Wu cultivates the Ice Series Essential Qi Secret Technique,’ he thought. As for the last skill…
Ou Yangming immediately thought about his Blood Flight waist sash. This was his second time seeing a piece of equipment with skill, but the might of the Freeze Combo Skill was not something he could fathom.
