Lu Yu reached the sixth level of the body refining realm and had 124 points of qi-blood. He felt that his body was unprecedentedly powerful.

With a casual wave, the power of his punch was comparable to the full-force attack from his previous self. His strength had increased tremendously.

The Fierce Tiger Fist Style had already been trained to ‘perfected’ level, and it would be difficult for Lu Yu to find an opponent at the sixth level of the body refining realm. If he had the Hundred Forged Greatsword in his hand, Lu Yu was confident that he could face a seventh level body refining realm opponent head-on.

After leveling up, Lu Yu left the Han Residence and headed to Windmill Town to see if the Hundred Forged Greatsword had been strengthened. He also wanted to settle the matters of the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

Just now, the shopkeeper of the Divine Weapon Pavilion had sent someone to the Han Residence to invite Lu Yu to the Divine Weapon Pavilion. The shopkeeper said that he had something important to discuss.

On the way, Lu Yu was wondering if the shopkeeper of the Divine Weapon Pavilion was looking for him for the iron essence?

Before his cultivation realm advanced, Lu Yu had to spend nearly five minutes to travel twenty miles. After he had advanced to the sixth level of the body refining realm, he easily rushed back to Windmill Town in less than three minutes.

First, he went to the Tang Blacksmith Shop to see if his greatsword had been strengthened.

When Lu Yu saw that the Tang Blacksmith Shop had reopened for business, he knew that his greatsword should have been strengthened.

After finding Boss Tang, Boss Tang brought him to the warehouse. The middle of the warehouse had been emptied, and on the sturdy iron piece was a slightly strange-shaped sword, or rather, a saber.

Lu Yu was also unable to determine whether it was a sword or a saber.

The handle of this weapon alone took up one-third of the entire weapon. The middle part of the sword was slightly narrower than the two ends, and there was still no sword tip. The top of the sword slightly protruded two sharp horns on both sides.

The Hundred Forged Greatsword was slightly condensed. The blade looked thinner, but it was still very thick compared to ordinary weapons.

Boss Tang looked at the strengthened Hundred Forged Greatsword with satisfaction and introduced it to Lu Yu, “The Hundred Forged Greatsword is limited by its size and materials. The blade cannot be sharpened.”

“That’s why I specially made two sharp horns on the tip of the sword. This can make up for the lack of sharpness of the blade. When dealing with some special enemies, you can use the sharp horns to break through their defenses.”

After Lu Yu heard this, he went forward to pick up the strengthened Hundred Forged Greatsword. Looking at this strange-looking weapon, Lu Yu couldn’t help but think of the weapon that Xiang Yu used in “Honor of Kings”. The shape of the two weapons was very similar.

“During the forging process, I added some other materials. Now, this weapon weighs 632 jin.”

Boss Tang suggested, “After the reforge, it has changed a lot. Give it a new name!”

After pondering for a while, Lu Yu said, “Then let’s call it — Overlord Blade.”

This weapon looked very similar to Xiang Yu’s weapon, so he decided to use Xiang Yu’s title. Lu Yu named it Overlord Blade.

The reason why it was a blade and not a sword was because he was practicing blade techniques. It was a little inappropriate to call it a sword.

“Overlord Blade. This name is not bad. I hope you can use it to make a name for yourself.”

Lu Yu took the Overlord Blade and left Tang Blacksmith Shop. When he left, he left Boss Tang a hundred gold coins as compensation for the heavy forging of his weapons.

Boss Tang gladly accepted the money. The money he lost in the past few days was nothing compared to the additional materials he added to the Overlord Blade. However, he never thought of asking Lu Yu for money.

In Boss Tang’s opinion, it was a great deal to spend some of the materials that he had collected over the years to forge a fantastic weapon. This was his dream, and it was worth his effort.

Lu Yu walked into the Divine Weapon Pavilion and was brought up to the third floor.

…

The chief of the Wild Wolf Sect, Hei Lang, was hiding in a residential area in Windmill Town. This residential area was secretly purchased by the Wild Wolf Sect a while ago. It was the transit station for Ye Lang’s activities in Windmill Town.

Hei Lang, who was hidden in the darkness, said in a hoarse voice, “Have you found that person?”

Ye Lang was a hidden spy of the Wild Wolf Sect. He had never shown his face in public. Only the chief of the Wild Wolf Sect knew who he was. The other members of the Wild Wolf Sect only knew that there was a Ye Lang, and they did not even know whether Ye Lang was a man or a woman.

At this moment, Ye Lang stood in front of Hei Lang with his face covered, reporting the information he knew.

“It was Lu Yu who found our hiding place. Four days ago, when I went to Lu Yu’s small courtyard to monitor him, I found that he had already left that place and had not been seen for four days. However, this morning, he suddenly returned to the small courtyard and left very quickly.”

“When I followed Lu Yu, I found that he was rushing towards the Han Residence. By the time I found that Lu Yu was rushing towards Xiao Tang Mountain with his men, it was already too late for me to report the news.”

“Lu Yu? I’m going to kill him!” Hei Lang’s expression was savage, the veins on his temples bulging in anger.

Ye Lang thought for a moment and decided to tell Hei Lang the new discovery, “I discovered that Ma Gang might have been killed by Lu Yu. Over the past few days, the Tang Blacksmith Shop seemed to be forging something. I sneaked in and discovered that they were helping Lu Yu forge weapon.”

“Ma Gang’s injuries are very likely caused by that weapon.”

Hei Lang did not speak, the anger in his eyes grew more and more intense.

“Boss, I have one last message for you.” Ye Lang suddenly said.

“Hmm? You want to leave?” Hei Lang asked.

“Yes, thank you for taking care of me this past year, Boss. Windmill Town is too small, there’s no room for me anymore.”

Ye Lang’s figure stood still, but his voice gradually faded away, becoming soft and indistinct.

“Lu Yu has already received a recruitment from the Divine Weapon Pavilion. Once he arrives in Bei Feng City, Boss, you won’t be able to kill him for the rest of your life.”

Pu! With a smokescreen, Ye Lang had disappeared.
