Chapter 614: The World’s Top Weapon-Maker

Hearing Long Baobaos words, Steward Huang could not stop looking at Ye Lingyue and looked a little more respectful.

The young master was a great talent that had been rarely seen in the past 500 years of the Long Family. Despite his young age, he had a good eye.

Even he could not stop praising Ye Lingyues knife. Then it must be something extraordinary.

How could an inexperienced mercenary soldier have such a good knife?

Girl, where did you get this knife?

I bought it from a market stall at the price of 10 liang (a unit of weight equaling 50g) of silver. I heard that it was made by a poor blacksmith. Since it is quite sharp, I use it to cut vegetables and meat. Oh, sometimes to trim my fingernails as well. Ye Lingyue did not even blush and answered quite smoothly. She then glimpsed at Xia Qing whose fingers shook subconsciously.

Just now, Ye Lingyue cut down the 10 fingernails of Xia Meng in one move.

Hearing how Ye Lingyue misused the Star Yan knife, Young Master Long Baobao shook his chubby face slightly.

You you! How can you treat the knife like this? What a reckless waste!

Ye Lingyue could see that the young master was a little weapon-making freak who would covet any rare spiritual artifact.

Just a Star Yan knife could easily enchant him. Then what would the little boys expression be like when he found that the Star Yan knife could be divided into 18 parts?

After exceeding the 13 needles of the Ghost Sect, Ye Lingyue could conjure up 18 knives altogether at a time.

Well, young master, lets go back to our original topic and talk about the task this time. Steward Huang dispelled his doubts after seeing that Ye Lingyue could answer smoothly and seemed to be telling the truth. This time, I have invited all of you here to help escort the young master on his way to entering his name for the Worlds Top Weapon-Maker.

Only then did others realize that the competition would soon start.

Except the hermitic sects and factions, all known alchemists and weapon-making families would participate in the competition.

Are you kidding? How can the little boy enter his name? How can he make weapons? The small mouth of Lan Caier was wide open, wide enough to swallow a whole egg.

Wasnt it maltreating little children? The little boy had chubby arms and legs. How could he carry weapon-making equipment?

Entrants for the Worlds Top Weapon-Maker dont need to show their age or real names. They just need to provide a spiritual artifact before attending the preliminaries. Only winners in the preliminaries can participate in the finals. Steward Huang did not blame Lan Caier for her reckless questions.

Ye Lingyue was attracted by the idea that a single spiritual artifact could earn one admission into the preliminaries. Her ancestor Ye Wuming had passed the preliminaries but missed the opportunity of winning the finals after failing to make the sky grade spiritual artifact of Nine Dragons Roar. Maybe she could make up for the lost glory.

Unfortunately, she did not have any outstanding spiritual artifact in hand. The Star Yan knife looked fine but could not earn her the opportunity to enter the Worlds Top Weapon-Maker.

Ye Lingyue had to go through Zizhu Mountain if she was going to sign up for the competition. In recent days, the appearance of Qiankun Zijin Bamboo had attracted a great number of bandits and some fierce beasts.

It was rather hard for young Long Baobao and old Steward Huang to pass Zizhu Mountain safely.

That was why Steward Huang got in touch with the Alliance of Mercenaries.

Although no clear statements had been made, all present were sophisticated enough to realize that Long Baobao, as a member of the well-known weapon-making family on the continent, must have carried with him quite a precious spiritual artifact for the Worlds Top Weapon-Maker this time.

It might be as precious as a sky grade spiritual artifact.

All came to understand why the Long Family called great attention by inviting two top mercenary groups to protect its members.

Steward Huang meant that one mercenary group was responsible for keeping Long Baobao company and protecting him and the other detecting and clearing barriers ahead in case that the young master might be scared.

You can rest assured that we Drinking Blood will accompany Young Master Long all the time and that he will pass Zizhu Mountain intact. Dao Ge hurried to say. Then the task of detecting and clearing barriers is left to Disha.

Why do we have to do something that requires great efforts but gives few benefits? Yan Jiu was dissatisfied.

Nicely speaking, it was detection. In fact, it was just serving as human shields.

Ho-ho, do you believe that your group members can serve Young Master Long well? Dao Ge asked sarcastically.

Yan Jiu took a look at Wu Chong and then Ye Lingyue and Lan Caier. None of them seemed to be good at pleasing kids.

Then Yan Jiu could not but agree to take responsibility for detection.

After the assignment was confirmed, Ye Lingyue and Lan Caier were called over by Yan Jiu.

Captain and I will stay behind and you two move ahead.

Such arrangement was reasonable since Yan Jiu would scare away the bandits if he went ahead.

In recent days, Ye Lingyue and Lan Caier had undertaken a number of tasks and got much more familiar with the surroundings.

After resting for one night in the City of Mercenaries, Disha and Drinking Blood escorted Long Baobao out of the city in the early morning of the next day.

Once they left the city, what they faced was a much harsher environment. In order to avoid calling attention, they decided to go on foot. Long Baobao was carried on the back by several male soldiers of Drinking Blood in turn.

For the sake of traveling light, all just took food and water for one day.

Ye Lingyue and Lan Caier talked for a while and decided to detect barriers in turn. It was Yes turn on the first day.

Do you plan to detect barriers like this?

Before Ye Lingyue set out, Di said emotionlessly.

Ye Lingyue looked at herself. If it wasnt right, how should she start detection?

I have never seen anyone as silly as you are. Di took out from his arms a small silver bell, grabbed Little Squeak and put the bell on its neck despite its struggle.

In this case, Little Squeak looked more like a dog.

Little Squeak was quite helpless and once again wanted to take off the bell. But its claws stopped moving as soon as it saw Dis gaze.

How scary! How could the man called Di be as horrible as that one?

Haha, Little Black, dont take it the wrong way. Our captain is doing this for your sake. This time, we will explore Zizhu Mountain in-depth. There are not only terrible people but also an intangible killermiasma. The bell will change its color as soon as we meet the miasma. Then we can change our direction. Yan Jiu was trying to explain to Ye Lingyue.

Hearing such words, Ye Lingyue felt quite embarrassed. At the same time, she found that Captain Di was quite scrupulous and considerate despite his killer-like face. This made her develop an affection for the captain.
