He had never been a pessimist.
In his opinion, he should live each day as it comes, no need to worry too much about tomorrow.
When trouble arises, just cut it off.
Gu Tianji sensed what his Master Lord might say and tried to comfort him: “These things may be heavy, but they are also timely encouragement. Time waits for no one. There’s nothing a pot of wine can’t solve. Your Highness, why not drink with me?”
Gu Fan said, “I don’t drink, my Madam doesn’t like me drinking, I’m not used to it.”
Zhao Huai very much agreed, and then said seriously.
Gu Tianji laughed: “Ah, you’re truly a devoted man. Fine, suit yourself.”
“Shall we go to the Limitless Immortal Sect first or forge the sword? I suggest forging the sword, at least give a heads up, queue up. In the Spiritual Mountains, there are many people who look for Master Ruan Ban to create magical weapons every day.”
“Alright, let’s listen to Brother Gu.”
Zhao Huai thought of something and said seriously, “Brother Gu is doing me such a big favor, calling me Your Highness is too formal, let’s address each other as brothers.’
“Hahaha, I didn’t expect Your Highness to be so open-hearted. Alright, I’ll call you Brother Zhao, and I’m set on making you my friend.”
Gu Tianji seemed very happy, laughing so hard that his eyes squinted.
Later, Zhao Huai followed Gu Tianji to a Main Hall.
Underground spiritual veins run through it, with formation inscriptions carved around it, which can absorb spiritual qi and transmit it to any place in the Spiritual Mountains at any time.
“Swoosh!”
Accompanied by a dizzying spin.
Zhao Huai arrived in front of a black mountain that appeared to be a garbage dump, messy and disorderly. However, the ground was not covered with garbage, but with various abandoned magical weapons.
Piled into various small colored mountains.
“Roar!”
At the top of the mountain, there’s a burning fire seed that looks like a meridian, spreading to the surroundings of the Sky Forge Mountain. The flames transform into illusory images of various strange beasts.
“This is the Beasts Fire, the source of the Sky Forge Mountain’s casting fire and also the chance for this Treasured Peak. Any magical weapon’s forging cannot be done without it.” Gu Tianji explained.
The two soon entered a mansion, where many strong and tall men with bare upper bodies were coming in and out.
“Clang! ”
“Clang! ”
Unending sounds of hammering iron could be heard from the manor.
Zhao Huai saw many people on the road, they were apprentices who could also forge magical weapons.
“It’s Gu Tianji.”
“He’s here to freeload from Master again?”
“Probably.”
Seeing Zhao Huai and Gu Tianji, many people whispered.
Zhao Huai gave Gu Tianji a strange look.
Gu Tianji coughed awkwardly and brushed it off.
Passing through the front hall, the back was where everything was displayed. Various magical weapons, like swords, spears, axes, rings, necklaces, etc., were all shining with spiritual light and placed in display cases.
“You little bastard, you’re here again?!
As they walked, a thick voice full of curse words came from a large hall.
An elder with a big nose and half-meter-long beard walked out of the shop, his face green with anger, looking like he was cheated.
“You used the magical weapons I forged as gifts to pick up other sect’s female disciples, didn’t you?” “Aiyo, old stories, why mention them.” Gu Tianji laughed awkwardly.
“Don’t worry, it’s not like that this time.”
The big-nosed elder sneered, “Humph! Gu Tianji, no matter what, I won’t help you this time.”
“It’s not me who wants to forge a life-bound magical treasure this time, it’s him. Can’t you do him a favor?”
Gu Tianji pointed at Zhao Huai next to him.
The big-nosed elder’s cold gaze fell on Zhao Huai. After a careful look, he finally shook his head and said:
“All the same, not forging!”
“Sigh! Don’t do that, do you know who he is?”
Gu Tianji looked embarrassed, as he had promised to help Zhao Huai, he had to keep his word.
“One and the same.”
The big-nosed elder replied indifferently.
Gu Tianji began to introduce: “This is the Crown Prince of Yan Country. He heard that you can forge the best magical weapons and came here. You can’t let people return empty-handed.”
“And this time I will pay, no, the Taoist temple will pay, absolutely no credit.”
“The Crown Prince of Yan Country, the one who’s been the talk of the town lately? A descendant of Ancestor Yan Zu?”
Hearing this name, the big-nosed elder’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, and he looked at Zhao Huai once again.
“To be fair, I do have some connections with Ancestor Yan Zu.”
The big-nosed elder began to ponder, muttering to himself.
Seeing this, Gu Tianji shouted: “I’ll add ten pots of thousand-year dragon fierce wine this time, I’m really putting everything on it!”
“You’re honest this time.”
Hearing this, the big-nosed elder snorted coldly at Gu Tianji, then turned to Zhao Huai, his face softened a bit, and said softly:
“Follow me inside.”
As the three walked, the big-nosed elder couldn’t help but turn his head and ask:
“Young man, what kind of magical weapon do you want to forge?”
Zhao Huai contemplated for a moment, then replied:
“A sword, a powerful enough sword.”
