"Would the Emperor of the Sand Empire believe such nonsense? Unless he"s an idiot! " Hearing this, Tang Huan started laughing.
"Of course he wouldn"t believe it."
Qing Ye smiled, "So, there is another rumor in the city that you are from a powerful family. The reason you are staying in that small blacksmith shop in the north of Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City is just to gain experience. However, even if it"s just training, there will still be experts protecting you from the shadows. "
"You can"t kill Sha Tu and the others, but you can protect your masters in the dark!"
"That"s a good story, I hope it"s true."
Tang Huan laughed self-deprecatingly, but he became cautious in his heart. If it was only the rumor from before, he wouldn"t have cared, but if he added this on, the damage would be extremely great.
Tang Huan was very clear on the principle of "falsifying the truth, destroying one"s bones".
"Tang Huan, your performance during this period is just too outstanding."
Qing Ye stopped smiling, and his expression became serious, "To use the metal attribute of the five elements to ignite a twelve meter long totem flame … Let"s not talk about that. After all, it belongs to the category of innate talents."
"But after successfully fusing with the True Fire, it has only been a short two months since you possessed such a profound ability to refine weapons, and even obtained the champions.h.i.+p in the Weapon Refining Compet.i.tion in one go, and your True Fire has even risen to a level comparable to that of a high level weapons craftsman. This is difficult to explain."
"Refining a weapon isn"t something that can be done with just your perception, you also need a large amount of resources to support it. If you were to say that you don"t have any powerful forces backing you, not many people would believe you. And after the end of the compet.i.tion, you rejected one after another from our Divine Armament Hall and the Great Tang Imperial Family, which seems to be the proof of this."
"If the tree is in the forest, the wind shall destroy it." Tang Huan sighed softly.
"Tang Huan, you … Is there anything you want to say? " Qing Ye stood up straight, her beautiful eyes fixed on Tang Huan, expectation in her eyes.
"Yes!"
Tang Huan pondered for a bit, then nodded lightly.
Qing Ye"s eyes lit up, and a smile suddenly surfaced on her beautiful face. She then heard Tang Huan ask in all seriousness: "Green Leaf Pavilion Mistress, can we begin the middle stage Refiner"s a.s.sessment?"
"a.s.sessment?" You. Do you still have the mood to take the examination now? "
"Tang Huan, do you know that you are currently in an extremely dangerous situation? Once the news of Sha Tu"s death reaches the Kingdom of Sharon, a large number of experts will immediately rush over from the capital to deal with you. Even if you hide in the Origin Continent, it would be useless. In the Human Allied Forces, the commander of the Sharon Empire would directly send someone from the Origin Continent to take your life. "
"No matter how dangerous it is, I"ll have to pa.s.s the mid-tier blacksmith master examination before I say anything."
Tang Huan smiled slowly.
As long as he agreed to go to the Heavenly Forging City, Qing Ye would probably immediately send someone to send him there, and recommend him to be the new disciple of the Divine Armament Hall"s master. From then on, he would be considered to have truly joined the Divine Armament Hall, and would not just be an artificer recognized by the Divine Armament Hall.
With this ident.i.ty, even if the experts of the Kingdom of Sharon were to make a move, the Divine Armament Hall would definitely take care of it. Otherwise, even if he was promoted to a middle stage blacksmith master, the Divine Armament Hall would only be able to guarantee that no one would try to kill him. However, the Divine Armament Hall did not care about the things that were happening in the shadows, because even if Tang Huan was killed, the Divine Armament Hall would not be able to make a move against the empire.
Tang Huan was grateful to Qing Ye"s kindness, but he did not want to accept it. Yesterday he did not agree to Divine Armament Hall"s recruitment, and from today onwards, he would not either.
"You, you …"
Qing Ye was angered to the point that his face turned green, his towering b.r.e.a.s.t.s rose and fell rapidly, "Okay, okay, I guess I"m just talking too much." Tang Huan, since you are so anxious to take the middle stage Refiner"s a.s.sessment, then follow me! " With that, Qing Ye sprung up and walked down the stairs in a huff.
A flash of apology appeared in Tang Huan"s eyes. He helplessly scratched his head and laughed dryly as he followed along.
When Tang Huan returned to the Divine Armament Hall, it was already noon. The low rank blacksmith"s badge on his body had also been changed to the middle rank blacksmith"s badge. For the current Tang Huan, the middle rank blacksmith master examination was not too suspenseful. The entire process was accomplished in a natural manner and was rather easy.
Along the way, Tang Huan discovered quite a few sneaky figures. On the way, some of the Martial Warriors s he met on the way recognized him and their expressions became extremely strange. There was even a fellow who approached him and advised him to quickly leave the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City to temporarily hide in the Heavenly Forging City and G.o.d-down City.
Tang Huan understood in his heart that those rumors should have already been spread widely in Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City.
There seemed to be an invisible hand in the darkness, it stirred the waves and stirred the rain. Tang Huan felt that a storm was brewing.
After approximately an hour, Tang Huan and Shan Shan sat facing each other in the smithy. On the other hand, little one jumped around the shop with his round belly. Sometimes he struggled to jump onto the metal table, sometimes he clumsily slipped onto the weapon rack, sometimes he would swing in front of Tang Huan a few times.
"Tang Huan, you … Why are you looking at me like that? "
Shan Shan could not help but ask. Tang Huan looked at her and felt gooseb.u.mps all over her body.
Ever since Tang Huan returned from the Divine Armament Hall, she had become extremely strange. She first sat inside the shop for three-and-a-half minutes without moving, as though she was a statue. She couldn"t help but go out to find someone to come over to check on Tang Huan.
After much difficulty, Tang Huan finally managed to make a move, but he pulled her to sit in front of him, and then looked at her without saying a word.
"Shan Shan, I"ve saved you three times since you arrived from the maze realm, right?" Tang Huan sized Shan Shan up from head to toe for a moment, and then said with a smile.
"No …." "That"s right..."
Shan Shan"s tender and white face immediately flushed red. He had saved her three times, and both times had actually occurred in such an awkward situation. After that, whenever she thought about it, she would feel embarra.s.sed, angry and helpless. However, why would this fellow mention this all of the sudden?
"Didn"t you always want to repay a debt of grat.i.tude?" Tang Huan laughed again, and said, "Now that the chance has come, if you really want to repay this favor, then..."
"You … "Don"t even think about it!"
Shan Shan seemed to have thought of something, as her beautiful eyes glared at Tang Huan, her beautiful face was as red as fire, alluring to the point of being tender, as though a gentle pinch would cause juice to leak out. "Tang Huan, I never thought that you would actually be such a person. "Still …"
Tang Huan was startled, and when he saw her expression, he could not help but not know whether to laugh or cry: "Why do you have to have such a huge reaction, I only wanted you to help me find a person"s residence."
"Investigate who?"
Shan Shan realized that she was wrong and could not help but feel embarra.s.sed. She asked subconsciously, but then she came back to her senses, "Tang Huan, you found the wrong person, I can"t help you with this help, I"m just alone, I don"t know where to go and find this for you."
Tang Huan"s eyes flashed with a playful smile, "At the intersection in front of the shop, an old man and an old woman were moved here twenty days ago … About a hundred meters away from the intersection, the breakfast shop seemed to have changed its owner at that time … Do you still need me to continue? "
"You … You already know about it? " Shan Shan"s expression changed slightly as surprise filled his eyes.
"Don"t forget, I"ve lived in this place for sixteen years. I know every single blade of gra.s.s and every tree in this small area like the back of my hand." Tang Huan laughed.
"Who do you want to find out?" Shan Shan remained silent for a moment, before she finally bit her lips and said.
"The Grand Princess of the Moyun Empire, Mo Ye!" Tang Huan said these words with a smile, but a cold light flashed deep within his eyes.
