Chapter 169 Gengxin City Blacksmith Association, Shockingly High Building!

"Please come in!" Lou Gao said, then walked in without giving Dugu Bo the respect he deserved.

That's how he was; he was interested in iron forging his whole life. Moreover, their Gengxin City was located within the Star Luo Empire, but it had never received the treatment it deserved and was on the verge of being forgotten.

If it weren't for the royal family's neglect, how could the Martial Soul Branch Hall of Gengxin City be so arrogant?

Dai Yichen knew what was going on with Lou Gao's attitude and didn't take it to heart, as he didn't have much of a princely air about him.

Besides, this building height is the most realistic. And don't be fooled by how tall it looks now; when the design drawings are released, we'll be raving about it.

Si Long was sweating profusely and gave Dai Yichen and Dugu Bo an apologetic look once again.

After sitting down, Lou Gao spoke up: "I heard that His Highness the Fourth Prince has something important to discuss with me? Tell me, my Blacksmiths' Association is probably of little use to your royal family, almost forgotten, yet you still come to me for cooperation?"

Dai Yichen didn't beat around the bush, directly taking out a hidden dart and a Zhuge crossbow from his soul tool, and smiled: "Senior Lou Gao, why don't you take a look before making a decision?"

"This, this is!"

Lou Gao, with his sharp eyes, picked up the Zhuge Crossbow and carefully examined its appearance, exclaiming repeatedly, "Exquisitely made, a fine piece! Who made this?" Lou Gao then changed his previous attitude and looked at Dai Yichen very seriously.

When did such a genius blacksmith appear in the Star Luo Royal Family?

Even that old gorilla couldn't make this!

Of course, if there are blueprints for making the drawings, that's a different story.

Dai Yichen: That Titan Ape is just the lowest-ranking craftsman, nothing much to say about him.

That's what Dai Yichen thought. Among the three great craftsmen on the mainland, Lou Gao was the first, Titan was the last, and Tang Hao was in the middle.

Tang Hao's martial soul and forging skills are both superior to Titan's.

Although the Titans' Mighty Clan also made their living by forging, they mostly forged iron products, and he himself was skilled at making tool parts.

Although Lou Gao's martial soul is not as good as Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer, he is not only highly skilled, but also has boundless imagination and an endless love for forging. This is what Dai Yichen valued!

"I made this."

Dai Yichen's words stunned everyone present, including Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing blinked and looked at Dai Yichen without saying a word.

He has so many things to do every day, yet he still managed to find time to forge these two hidden weapons. His time management skills are amazing!

"Kid! Are you kidding me? You're only seven years old, right? Even if you started learning forging from the womb, it's impossible!"

Lou Gao was so anxious that he stopped calling for the Fourth Prince; he was truly astonished.

Si Long, who was standing to the side, was terrified. He only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Dai Yichen didn't react.

Dai Yichen said calmly, "I learn things quite quickly. There are many books about forging in the palace. Because of my martial spirit, I am actually quite interested in forging."

As soon as he finished speaking, the White Tiger Armor appeared on Dai Yichen's body, but he wasn't wearing a helmet.

Lou Gao couldn't resist touching it. The touch was icy cold and carried a hint of sharpness. He exclaimed, "What a magnificent martial spirit! I never imagined the royal family's White Tiger martial spirit could mutate into White Tiger Armor. The quality of this armor is beyond what humans could create!"

Dai Yichen thought to himself, "That's not necessarily true. The battle armor from tens of thousands of years later is quite similar to my White Tiger Armor, but its potential is not as high as my martial soul."

huh~~

Lou Gao took a deep breath and looked at Dai Yichen, saying, "May I test the power of these two weapons?"

"Of course, this small weapon is called a sleeve dart, and its power can break through the defense of an ordinary Soul Master. If used unexpectedly, it can also be used against a Great Soul Master. This large one is called the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, and it can break through the defense of non-defense Soul Masters below the Soul King level, and kill them!" Dai Yichen introduced.

"Silong!"

Lou Gao shouted at his disciple and gestured for him to stand at the door.

Silong:

Helpless, Si Long summoned his martial soul and assumed a defensive stance. Although he was a Soul Saint, his combat ability was lacking. Otherwise, the Blacksmith Association would not have been constantly targeted by Bishop Miles of the Martial Soul Branch Hall. Moreover, his first soul ring was only white.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~

Seeing Si Long's full defensive posture, Lou Gao also fired his hidden arrows and crossbow bolts from the Zhuge Divine Crossbow in turn.

Si Long amplified his Vajra Chisel Martial Soul and placed it in front of him.

Lou Gao could clearly feel the power of these two weapons, especially the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, which could change the situation on the continent!

This little thing was actually made by the fourth prince, who hasn't even grown his hair yet!

To be honest, Lou Gao was somewhat skeptical, but in the blink of an eye, he put on a smiling face and looked at Dai Yichen: "Your Highness, what kind of cooperation do you intend to discuss today?"

Dai Yichen said calmly, "Senior Lou Gao, I have a question. Since the Blacksmith Association is affiliated with Gengxin City within the Star Luo Empire, do you favor the Star Luo Empire or the Heaven Dou Empire?"

Lou Gao was slightly taken aback, but after thinking for a moment, he shook his head: "I don't favor anyone. Although you are the Fourth Prince, I, Lou Gao, am a man of my word. I hope you won't take offense."

The Blacksmiths' Association has always been located within the territory of the Star Luo Empire, and if we were to divide it by power, it would belong to the Star Luo Empire.

But you should know that people on the mainland look down on blacksmiths. Our status is only slightly higher than that of commoners. Your royal family has basically not cared about this town for so many years. Otherwise, how could you turn a blind eye to us being bullied by the bishops of the Martial Soul Branch Hall?

"You might even think that the existence of us blacksmiths is only to make weapons and equipment for the two great empires, as well as ironware for the common people, and that we have no other purpose. The reason why our Blacksmiths' Association has survived until now is precisely because we not only do business with the Star Luo Empire, but also with the Heaven Dou Empire. More than 30% of the members of the association are from the Heaven Dou Empire."

Before Lou Gao could finish speaking, Dai Yichen bowed deeply at a 30-degree angle. Zhu Zhuqing, who was standing to the side, was somewhat puzzled but followed suit.

Then, Dai Yichen raised his head: "Senior Lou Gao, I know the difficulties your Blacksmiths' Association has faced over the years, largely due to the royal family's neglect and inaction. But now that I'm here, that situation will no longer occur. So, would you be willing to talk to me? To elevate the blacksmiths' influence on the continent to a higher level?"

We've finally arrived in Gengxin City; they're speeding up the process!
