Weapon Master

Chapter 299 - 5 Failure

Tang Huan could already guess why the old fatty would leave him such a letter.

During this period of time, the things he had done at the Tang Family’s Martial Arts Practice Grounds had long ago spread throughout the entire Furious Waves City. The news that his mother’s grave was an empty grave was definitely widespread. It was very possible that the old fatty had returned to the Furious Waves City from the Heavenly Forging City in the past few days and heard these rumors.

That was why he left such a letter and left it behind.

What the old fatty did instead caused Tang Huan to develop an endless amount of curiosity about the origins of his mother and even his father, as well as the matter of his mother faking her death all those years ago. He had a feeling that there must be an extremely big secret hidden in that matter. Otherwise, the old fatty would not even need to be afraid of him inquiring about the truth.

However, with this letter, the anxiety in Tang Huan’s heart disappeared by a lot.

With his master not here, the old man had also slipped away. Right now, no matter how anxious he was, it was useless. After all, the truth of the matter could only be obtained from them. Fortunately, the old fatty had left behind the exact time. At that time, he would be able to find out everything he wanted to know.

Otherwise, there was no need for the old fatty to set a time for the meeting.

Right now, all Tang Huan had to do was wait until the sixth day of next year to make a trip to the Heavenly Forging City’s ”Return Residence”. Before that, all he had to do was do what he had to do.

”Sixth day of June …”

Tang Huan softly muttered these few words, as his heart gradually calmed down.

Not long after, Tang Huan left the blacksmith shop and went to Divine Weapon Pavilion. Originally, Tang Huan had planned to secretly go back. He did not want to cause such a ruckus, but he could not change Tang Xiong. In the end, he could only allow himself to lead a few hundred of the Great Tang Empire’s soldiers to the sides.

When Tang Huan returned, it was already noon.

At this time, not only did he change the middle stage Weapon Refiner’s emblem on his body into a high stage Weapon Refiner, he also found out about Tang Family’s movements from Qing Ye.

As for the movements of Tang Family’s initial funds in recent months, Divine Weapon Pavilion had yet to investigate them clearly.

Tang Huan felt that it would be extremely difficult to investigate this matter, the Tang Family would not be so stupid as to leave behind obvious flaws and scars on this matter.

Knowing that the Tang Family used the ”Tai Bai Shi” to exchange for those two hundred and eighty high grade gems, Tang Huan set the Tang Family as the number one suspected target of the ”Secluded Night Divine Palace” assassination. Of course, Tang Huan would not make a move against the Tang Family for now.

There would be a long time in the future, and there would definitely be a better opportunity in the future.

After returning to the blacksmith’s shop, Tang Huan once again stayed in his room for many days. The iron cages outside the shop were actually being carried in one by one, and then out one by one. When they entered, the beasts in the cages were alive and kicking, and when they came out, it seemed as if they had all fallen into a deep sleep.

There were no wounds on the beasts’ bodies, but no matter how much they were stimulated, none of them woke up.

As for what exactly those wild beasts had experienced in the blacksmith shop, the surrounding Great Tang Empire warriors who were guarding around were very curious. However, under Tang Xiong’s strict order, no one tried to spy on them and no one randomly passed down anything, all they said was that these wild beasts were killed by Tang Huan while he was cultivating.

It was another late night.

”Boom!”

A loud noise came from within the brightly lit blacksmith shop. Not only did the blacksmith shop shake violently, even the ground within a ten meter radius seemed to tremble intensely.

At the entrance of the blacksmith shop, many Great Tang Empire warriors peeked their heads out to look.

Unfortunately, they did not see that during this period of time, when Tang Huan was forging his weapons, the mysterious little girl would always close the door. It was unknown if it was Tang Huan’s orders or if the little girl acted on her own. Everyone felt that it was most likely the latter.

”This is already the fifth time, right?”

A young man in armor with a rather handsome face could not help but ask, ”Would Master Tang Huan fail to forge a weapon as well?”

”Forging a mid-grade weapon definitely won’t be a problem.” ”However, it’s hard to say if it’s a high grade weapon. After all, Master Tang Huan has just been promoted to Stage Seven Martial Master not long ago, so it’s normal for him to fail occasionally. There’s no need to make a fuss about it.”

”This isn’t an occasional failure, but five consecutive failures.”

Someone immediately answered, asking suspiciously, ”Truly strange, a few days ago Master Tang Huan even forged a high grade weapon for Senior General Qian, then saw that Master Tang Huan is extremely skilled with techniques, and very relaxed, why did he fail every time he forges?”

”Senior Thousand Generals, what kind of high level weapon is Master Tang Huan forging right now?” The elegant man couldn’t help but glance at Tang Xiong.

”How would I know? If they scattered, then what were they all gathered here for?”

When Tang Xiong heard this, he glared at the handsome man in annoyance and sent a few slaps at him, chasing all of them away from the store’s entrance.

At this moment, his heart was the same as everyone else, scratching like a cat, and he was extremely curious.

These days, Tang Huan told him to find some gems and ores to help him forge a high level weapon while he was still in the air, and also helped his brothers who were hunting wild beasts to help him forge an intermediate level weapon. But at the other times, Tang Huan was holed up in the smithy, trying to figure out what he was doing.

If he didn’t close the door, Tang Xiong could just walk in and watch openly. However, once the doors to the blacksmith shop were closed, he could not do this anymore.

’Could it be forging some powerful high-grade weapon? ’ Tang Xiong muttered to himself as he helplessly walked toward the nearby tent.

”Another failure!”

In the smithy, Tang Huan frowned and sighed.

At this moment, the interior of the blacksmith shop was a complete mess. The power generated from the failure of the blacksmith had created an exceptionally violent shockwave, causing the surrounding tables and chairs to fall to the ground. Xiao Budian and the little girl began to move, tidying up this chaotic space.

However, Tang Huan stood there without moving, his eyes focused on the longsword that was forged with black profound iron. It was already pitch-black, and even the luster was gone.

This was already the fifth time Tang Huan had tried to forge a Spirit Adhesion weapon, and the results were the same as the previous four times; During the forging of the weapon, Tang Huan’s every step was strictly followed the instructions of the Mirage, yet not a single one of them succeeded …

After every failure, Tang Huan would learn from his mistakes.

”Could it be that the words of the current generation of illusions are a little wrong?”

Tang Huan couldn’t help but think of such a possibility. After all, when the current generation learned of the Spirit Adhesion, they were always in the ”Sword Soul King’s” state, so the things that were recorded in their heads were more likely to be wrong.

As Tang Huan’s thoughts raced, he lined up the five consecutively failing longswords on the table and compared them with each other. In his mind, he kept thinking about what Fantasy eye had said deep in the Sword Crafting Valley.

After a long while, Tang Huan suddenly had a thought, ”The reason for all these failures, could it be because the souls of these beasts are too weak?”
