Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 127
Chapter 127 Communication
Master Ku suddenly asked, as if he knew that Ye Feng knew how to forge weapons.
“Just a little bit.” The two of them seemed to be old friends as they asked and answered each other.
“You know inscription soul arts?”
Master Ku suddenly shot out a soul force that pierced straight into Ye Feng’s brain. To a powerful Inscription Soul Master, he had absolute acuity. Because he could see some inscription patterns flowing on both sides of each other, it was impossible to conceal it.
Just like when Ye Feng saw Master Ku, he could see the fluctuations of inscription patterns between his movements. Master Ku treated Ye Feng the same way, leaving behind traces of the Grand Dao on his body, leaving behind traces of inscription patterns.
“Why do you ask?”
Although Ye Feng knew that the other party could tell from his body, he was still very surprised and did not admit it directly.
“This is not a place to talk. Please follow me.”
Master Ku did not continue to ask further. Instead, he invited Ye Feng to enter the inner hall.
Ye Feng smiled bitterly. He didn’t know whether he should refuse or enter. When he met Master Ku who cultivated the Inscription Soul Technique, Ye Feng naturally wanted to understand. He absorbed experience from each other and relied on himself to explore. Time was slow, and even things could go wrong.
“What are you worried about? Master Ku’s reputation in the Imperial City isn’t enough to harm a nobody like you.” Seeing Ye Feng’s bitter smile, Master Ku continued.
“Since Master Ku has invited me, it’s better for this junior to obey him respectfully.” Ye Feng knew that he could not refuse, so he let go.
“Please!”
Master Ku was very polite. He actually stood up and let Ye Feng enter the inner hall. This was almost the first time in history that Master Ku was so polite to a young man.
“Take good care of this young master’s groom and send the True Spirit Pills to the inner hall.”
When Master Ku saw the stunned old man, he instructed. He ignored the shocked gazes behind him and slowly disappeared from everyone’s sight.
After entering the inner hall, the scene completely changed. The noise just now had disappeared. Only a faint elegance could be seen. After passing through a long corridor, Ye Feng was led into a small building. It was made of cold bamboo. It was warm in winter and cool in summer.
“Please!”
Luring Ye Feng to the top of the small building, someone had already delivered the best fragrant tea.
“Everyone, go down. Without my orders, no one is allowed to approach within a hundred meters.”
Master Ku waved his hand, causing all the servants and the guards guarding this place to retreat, leaving the small building far away.
“There are no outsiders here now. You can tell me if you also know inscription soul arts.”
Master Ku continued to ask.
“I only know the surface.”
Ye Feng was telling the truth. Although he had obtained the inheritance of a Master of the Inscription Soul Technique, his strength was too low. Many powerful inscription patterns were simply impossible to be carved. He needed to continuously explore and cultivate in the future.
“Sure enough, it was you who entered the forging room just now, right?”
Master Ku did not pursue the matter further, but instead asked about what happened just now.
“Since you already know, why ask again?”
Ye Feng did not want to explain anything. The other party had obviously guessed it.
“Don’t worry, I don’t have any malicious intentions. It’s rare for me to meet someone who cultivates the inscription soul technique. I want to communicate with each other, hoping to promote a deeper understanding of the inscription soul technique.”
It turned out that Master Ku wanted to communicate with Ye Feng to promote their understanding of the Inscription Soul Technique and learn from each other’s strengths to supplement each other’s weaknesses. This was also a well-known saying in the cultivation world.
“Little brat only knows a little bit, it’s hard to enter the graceful hall. I’m really afraid that Master Ku will laugh at me.”
Ye Feng said humbly.
“Cultivation has no superficial meaning. Since you understand, we might as well communicate. This is the inscription soul technique I cultivate. You can observe it carefully. If it is useful to you, I hope that you can appreciate your inscription soul technique as well.”
Master Ku was very straightforward. He took out a rune with a large number of runes engraved on it. However, compared to the rune in Ye Feng’s soul sea, it was very different, even to the extent of the difference between heaven and earth.
Regardless of whether it was crafted or engraved, this rune was extremely crude. It could be said to be extremely inferior. However, this inferior rune actually made Master Ku become a master teacher of the generation, and everyone respected it!
Ye Feng had a clue for a while. He asked a few questions about what had happened during the forging process, as well as some questions about why he felt sluggish when drawing inscription patterns. These were all questions that Ye Feng was temporarily faced with.
After Master Ku heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He did not expect Ye Feng to be able to ask such an accurate question. His understanding of the Dao of Inscription Soul Technique exceeded his estimation. Being able to point out problems in a flash of blood meant that Ye Feng’s attainments were very profound. At the very least, it took him a long time to solve these problems.
The two talked deeper and deeper, gradually abandoning each other’s prejudices. They even forgot where they were. They were immersed in the Inscription Soul Technique. Many of the questions Ye Feng had asked, not even Master Ku had encountered.
These questions happened to be stuck in the way of Master Ku’s inability to move forward. Now, it suddenly became clear and he let out a refreshing smile.
In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed before the two of them retreated from this depth.
“Ye Feng, I didn’t expect that at such a young age, you would have such a thorough understanding of the Inscription Soul Technique. I am willing to bow to you.”
Master Ku actually admired Ye Feng deeply. He was shocked by his philosophy and woke him up. It would be of great help to his future achievements.
“What a joke. I’ve also benefited a lot. Thank you for explaining things to me. I’ve also gained enlightenment in some areas!”
Ye Feng had gained a lot of experience from the conversation between the two sides. After all, Master Ku was an artifact forging master, and he was portraying it every day. In terms of familiarity, he was definitely much stronger than Ye Feng.
However, his Inscription Soul Technique was extremely inferior, restricting his development. From Ye Feng’s gorgeous words, he heard many inscription patterns that he had never come into contact with, causing his horizons to widen greatly.
“It’s getting late. It’s time for me to leave. I hope that I can continue to communicate in the future.”
Seeing that it was getting late, Ye Feng resigned.
When Master Ku heard that Ye Feng was leaving, he revealed a disappointed expression. However, it was impossible to forcefully leave Ye Feng here.
“There will be a young artifact forging competition in six days in our Imperial City. It is the most grand competition in the entire Imperial City. There will even be people from all the major clans participating. There will be generous rewards for winning the championship. Are you interested?”
Master Ku recalled that the Triennial Youth Weapon Refining Tournament was about to start again. At this time, he asked to stay, hoping that Ye Feng would stay for a few more days.
“Forgive me for not being able to participate. I still have important matters to attend to, so I don’t dare to stay too long.”
Even if the reward was generous, Ye Feng still had to take it out. In this huge imperial city, there was no back. Jing, even if you won the championship, you would probably become the target of public criticism.
After what had happened in Su Cheng, Ye Feng would make a lot of analysis of everything. Don’t be fooled by the scene in front of him, think about the long term.
“Since that’s the case, then I won’t delay your journey. If there’s a chance, I hope we can meet again.”
Master Ku also couldn’t force Ye Feng to stay. He personally sent Ye Feng out. Before he left the inner hall, an old man was waiting there. He placed the True Spirit Pill Ye Feng exchanged into a ring and handed it to Ye Feng.
“Goodbye!”
Ye Feng clasped his fist at Master Ku. As the coachman rushed towards the depths of the Imperial City, his stomach had already begun to protest. Ye Feng planned to have a good meal.
The structure of the imperial city, It was basically built around the royal family, Within the imperial city, there were many high-ranking officials and large clans. They were basically working for the imperial family. The strongest were undoubtedly the Qi Clan and the Yang Clan. These two clans had assisted the Li Clan for many years, and they were divided into the prime ministers. Their roots in the imperial city were extremely strong. However, the relationship between the two clans was not that good. They had always wanted to take down the other clan and become the only one.
Faced with the secret battle between the two clans, the royal family seemed to know that maintaining the balance between the two clans as much as possible would not threaten the safety of the royal family.
“Lord Father, the Equipment Refining Tournament will be held in six days. This time, we must humiliate the Qi Clan so much that the Qi Clan, which is famous for its equipment refining, will not be able to lift their heads.”
A man in his twenties said to Yang Kuitian, who was second only to the emperor, standing in a courtyard with a gloomy and ruthless expression.
The Yang Clan’s courtyard occupied an area of 1000 square meters, occupying almost two streets. It corresponded to the Qi Clan in South Street. These two clans practically monopolized a lot of business in the Imperial City, and they secretly fought for countless years.
‘”Don’t be careless. Although the Qi Clan’s artifact forging techniques have declined, there isn’t any powerful artificer. Only Master Ku is struggling to support them. However, Master Ku is not from the Qi Clan. He is not allowed to represent the Qi Clan. If nothing unexpected happens, the champion of this year’s Young Artifact Forging Competition will be our Yang Clan.”
Yang Kuitian was still very vigilant.
“Father, I’ve heard that the royal family has invested a lot of money this time. If anyone wins the championship, not only can they ask the royal family to do one thing for them, they can even obtain a large amount of resources.”
The young man was full of excitement.
‘”Yes, resources are secondary. The most important wish made by the royal family is that if our Yang family wins the championship, we can just mention marrying the royal family and striving to marry the princess into the Yang family. At that time, I will see how the Qi family will fight us.”
Yang Kuitian revealed a thoughtful expression as he laughed heartily.
Within the Qi Clan, many disciples were painstakingly cultivating artifact forging techniques in the artifact forging workshop, hoping to obtain good results in the artifact forging competition six days later, so as not to lose face to the Qi Clan.
“Father, why are you here?”
A twenty-five-year-old youth said respectfully when he saw an old man walking over.
“Come and take a look. Where’s Xiao Mei?”
The old man glanced at the forging workshop inside, frowned slightly, and then asked.
“I think I’ve gone to the Drunken Tower. Isn’t it time for dinner? Little sister has been such a hobby since childhood. She likes to eat drunk chickens from the Drunken Tower.”
When the young man spoke of this little sister, he doted on her very much.
“Impudent. Since when is she still in the mood to leave?”
The old man was a little angry.
“Father, please calm down. You know that little sister doesn’t have any feelings for artifact forging at all. Even if you force her, it’s useless. Why don’t you let little sister stay at home for a few days and enjoy the happiness of the heavens? After all, her daily cultivation in Heavenly Spirit Academy is very boring.”
The young man defended his sister.
“You spoiled it since you were a child.”
The old man said and left.
After walking for an incense stick of time, Ye Feng finally arrived at the Drunken Tower. Before he could enter, a burst of fragrance came to his nose. Ye Feng felt that his stomach raised a strong protest.
