Tiexiong sighed and said unwillingly: "Oh, this has already passed, so don't mention it."
Yang Ming felt that there was something hidden in it, and immediately asked: "Master Tiexiong, please explain the reason quickly."
When Tiexiong saw Yang Ming's question, he immediately asked Shan Liwen, "Who is this young man?"
Shan Liwen replied: "This is Young Master Yang Ming, the young master of Zilong Palace. He helped me get rid of the fire poison in Xiaoya's body and saved her life. He is also the person who fulfilled the last wish of my ancestors for me. He can be said to be my great master." My benefactor, this time I came to the Yin and Yang sector to help Wan Jinhang deal with the threat from the Chaos Chamber of Commerce."
"It turns out to be Young Master Yang Ming. I'm disrespectful." Tie Xiong immediately said with his fists clasped.
Yang Ming returned the salute, and then asked: "Master Tiexiong, there seems to be some hidden meaning in your words just now. What happened?"
"Well, this all started after Liwen you left the Blacksmiths Association." Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Tiexiong sighed heavily, and then spoke eloquently.
"After you left, Liwen, the association was short of a master-level manpower. It was a bit unable to cope with the orders for customized high-end magic weapons. I discussed with several elders to recruit a senior blacksmith to help cope with it. Order volume.”
The two of them nodded after hearing this. These things were normal, so they continued to listen.
"The problem lies with the blacksmith who came to apply for the job. At first, he just helped reduce the order volume of other masters and did not show any extraordinary skills. But a year later, the situation changed and he took it right away. The order for dozens of high-end magic weapons was required to be completed within a month, which shocked everyone. If they cannot be delivered within the stipulated time, the association will have to pay three times the price."
Shan Liwen also felt that this person either had a brain problem or was hiding something. His skills were higher than anyone else, otherwise he would not have made such a bold move. If it were his previous self, he could only complete ten at most in a month. Order.
Yang Ming didn't understand blacksmithing, so he asked Shan Liwen: "Old Shan, does it take a long time to complete an order?"
Shan Liwen explained to him: "High-end magic weapons are not those that are forged in batches. The owner of each magic weapon has his own requirements. The blacksmith must not only forge the magic weapon, but also meet the customer's requirements to complete the transaction." Goods, even I can’t guarantee that I can forge a magic weapon that meets the requirements in one go, and it will take at least three days to complete an order.”
With the comparison of Shan Liwen, Yang Ming understood how bold and confident that person was to take dozens of orders at once, which meant that one or two orders could be completed in one day, three times as fast as Shan Liwen.
Looking back now, Tiexiong was also frightened. His skills were a little better than Shan Liwen's, but he could only complete about fifteen magic weapons in a month. No matter how many more, the quality could not be guaranteed.
"What happened next? Has the blacksmith finished it?" Yang Ming was eager to know the result.
Tiexiong nodded in affirmation, and Yang Ming and Shan Liwen took a breath. They were able to create dozens of high-level magic weapons within a month, which they, including the people from the Blacksmiths Association, could not imagine.
"Who is this person? Why haven't I heard of this person before? Tiexiong, what is that person's name?" Shan Liwen immediately asked.
Tiexiong said: "I have never heard of this person. I only know that his name is Xiong Qiang. As for his background, who he studied under, and even his previous residence, I know nothing about him."
Shan Liwen said angrily: "How dare you use such a person?"
Tiexiong said helplessly: "You also know that I am not the one who makes the decision in the association. I am also full of doubts about his origins, but the other members seem to have only admiration and respect for him, and do not doubt his motives at all."
"Then why were you kicked out of the association and said you betrayed the Blacksmiths Association?" Shan Liwen also knew Tiexiong's difficulties and stopped dwelling on the origins of the newcomers.
When asked about the point, Tiexiong's face changed. He was angry, helpless, and unwilling. He said in a deep voice: "Ever since Xiong Qiang showed that he has surpassed other people's skills, I have been asked to abdicate. The voices of Rang Xian were only one or two people who had such an idea at first, but later on, there were more and more voices."
"I didn't want to give up the position of vice-president to others, so I honed my skills and finally made a breakthrough. However, before it was made public, Xiong Qiang came to the door with his people and said that I had plagiarized his skills. Others would see it. When he saw the works after my technological breakthrough, he also thought that I had stolen his technology. I couldn't defend myself. Xiong Qiang also suggested that I be imprisoned and use soul-searching magic skills. I resisted desperately and escaped from Iron Fire City, but I didn't want the blacksmith. The association fell into the hands of others, so they followed the drainage pipe back to the city and hid it here." Tie Xiong told everything that happened when Shan Liwen was away.
"So, Xiong Qiang is in control of the Blacksmith Association now, but I have a question, that is, you have been talking about the position of vice president, isn't there a full president?" Yang Ming listened for so long, Finally, he expressed the doubts in his mind.
Shan Liwen said: "The Blacksmith Association has a president, but except for our family, no one has ever known the identity of the president. He is Wang Qikang. Those who join later can only serve as vice president."
It turns out that the president of the Blacksmith Association is Wang Qikang, whom Shan Liwen has been pursuing. When Wang Qikang was forced to hand over his skills, he would rather die than obey, and moved his family. After disappearing, Shan Liwen's ancestors learned from Wang Qikang, and in order to commemorate the legacy In order to commemorate Wang Qikang's achievements, he joined forces with other blacksmiths to establish the Blacksmiths Association and set aside the position of president.
Yang Ming finally understood the cause and effect. The current question was how to overthrow Xiong Qiang and let Tiexiong regain control of the Blacksmiths Association.
"Master Tiexiong, what kind of strength is this Xiong Qiang?" Yang Ming asked.
"Why are you asking this? You don't want to kill him directly, do you?" Tie Xiong looked at Yang Ming blankly.
"Of course, it is probably not a good person to wrongly accuse someone who has no grievances against him. Besides, his origin is unknown. He is probably a member of the Chaos God Cult. Since he is a member of the Chaos God Cult, he is our enemy."
Yang Ming's reasons made Tiexiong sweat. Let's not say whether Xiong Qiang is a member of the Chaos God Cult. Even if he is, Yang Ming, a young man, can kill a strong man with at least a black soul. He couldn't say something so light and arrogant.
Shan Liwen said to him: "Tiexiong, don't underestimate Young Master Yang Ming. Although he is young, he is very powerful. Even if I try my best, the chance of defeating him is less than 30%."
"Thirty percent? Liwen, are you kidding me? Is this young man so capable?"
Tiexiong exclaimed in shock. He also knew his brother very well. The perfect strength of Black Soul actually matched a young man and said that he was only 30% sure of winning. Who would believe this?
In fact, Shan Liwen said 30% was already conservative. If Yang Ming fully unleashed his firepower, he would not have even a 10% chance. After all, Yang Ming's total amount of magic energy was nine times that of ordinary people, coupled with his extremely powerful body and quasi-spiritual weapons. , even against the white soul demon warrior, he can give it a fight.
Hearing what his brother said, Tie Xiong could only believe that Yang Ming was so powerful even if he had doubts. He immediately said: "Xiong Qiang did not cause space fluctuations when he used magic elements. I guess he is still a black soul." The realm of perfection, but his black soul realm seems to be much more powerful than the average black soul demon warrior. When I faced him, it felt like I was facing a cloud, and I couldn't sense his actual level."
"Since Xiong Qiang is still a black soul demon warrior, then I am sure to kill him." Yang Ming's eyes flashed and he whispered.
Shan Liwen immediately said: "The question is how can we see Xiong Qiang?"
Tie Xiong immediately responded: "Leave this to me. You can ambush outside the city lord's mansion and I will be the bait to lure out Xiong Qiang."
"How can this be done? There is more than one Black Soul Demon warrior in the association. It is too dangerous for you to go alone. It is better for me to go with you. One more person will give you more strength." Shan Liwen said immediately.
"Well, we brothers haven't fought side by side for a long time. Let's see if we can still combine the dual realms of gold and fire."
Tiexiong's eyes were full of fighting spirit, and he agreed to Shan Liwen's coordinated operation. Then the three of them formulated a plan. The two brothers were responsible for luring Xiong Qiang out, and Yang Ming was responsible for killing him. The Blacksmith Association and the City Lord's Mansion are originally the same place.
After deciding on the plan, the three of them took action. While Xiong Qiang was still in the association, it would not be easy to find him at night. The plan must be implemented immediately.
Two figures jumped into the sky above the city lord's mansion, and Tie Xiong immediately shouted: "Xiong Qiang, you old man, come out!"
The shouts alarmed the entire City Lord's Mansion, and the guards immediately entered a state of alert. Shan Liwen immediately released his domain, covering the entire City Lord's Mansion.
"Why can't I move...I can't pull out my weapon...I can't put on my armor..."
The guards were in a mess, and only the black soul-level guard captain could barely move, but his strength was also greatly reduced, and he could not pose a threat to the two of them.
"Liwen, it seems that you have improved in recent years. Your field has greatly enhanced the effect of metal control and restricted the equipment of those guards." Tiexiong was amazed when he saw the appearance of those guards.
But Shan Liwen was thinking in his heart: It's not that my strength has increased, it's that I used the secret gold control skills that my master left in the forging method. How can the techniques taught by the strong men in the Six Paths Realm, like you, small characters in the Condensation Realm, be able to do it? Out of control?
The strange behavior of the guard finally attracted the appearance of the target person. A strong man with gray-white hair and a body of tendons walked out of the city lord's mansion. The two people looked at each other in mid-air. From Tie Xiong's eyes, Shan Liwen could identify this strong man. This is the real owner they are looking for, Xiong Qiang.
