Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 133

Chapter 133 Request
A gloomy expression appeared on Qi Ruomei’s face. It was secondary to injuring the prince. The main reason was that her father had promised to marry the Third Prince, Young Master Li Xian. This matter was difficult for Qi Ruomei to accept.

“Little Mei, I know your father’s difficulties. I’ll go discuss with your father and try to prevent you from marrying into the royal family. That’s all I can do for you.”

Master Ku also had a helpless expression on his face.

“Thank you, Master Ku!” Qi Ruomei bowed to Master Ku.

“Alright, I won’t stop you two from chatting. Ye brat, don’t leave yet. Since you know that you’re in the Qi Manor, you have to chat with me for three days and three nights.”

Master Ku swept a glance at their faces with a strange smile on his face.

Ye Feng smiled bitterly. Originally, he intended to leave tomorrow, but now that he met Master Ku, he would definitely not let him go so easily.

“Quickly tell me, how do you know Master Ku?”

After Master Ku left, Qi Ruomei’s pair of beautiful eyes stared fixedly at Ye Feng’s face, causing him to feel embarrassed instead. It was mainly because no one could stand being looked at like this by a peerless beauty.

Helplessly, Ye Feng explained how he knew Master Ku. In many places, Ye Feng had vaguely brought his divine sense into the artifact forging room. There were also some things about inscription soul techniques that Ye Feng did not mention.

“Master, Master Ku is here. He wants to see you!”

In the study, Qi Sheng’s anger had yet to dissipate.

“Quickly invite Master Ku in!”

Qi Sheng’s expression eased considerably, and the anger he felt earlier gradually dissipated.

The door was pushed open. Master Ku restrained the smile on his face and entered the study with a solemn expression.

“Greetings, Prime Minister!” Master Ku hurriedly bowed.

“Master Ku, there’s no need to be too polite!”

Qi Sheng was still very polite when he saw Master Ku. After all, most of the Qi Clan’s current artifact forging techniques relied on Master Ku to support them. Without Master Ku, the Qi Clan’s harvest would have shrunk by at least a third.

“Master Ku, you came at the right time. The Equipment Refining Tournament is about to begin. However, the Qi Clan does not have any outstanding disciples. I need to trouble you to train them and try to raise their equipment refining level in the last few days.”

Qi Sheng put aside what had happened during the day and passed the Equipment Refining Tournament.

“Prime Minister, if you don’t tell me, I still forget. Right now, the Qi Manor has a high-grade artifact forging master. He can participate in this artifact forging competition. Even I, Master Ku, am willing to kowtow to this artifact forging master.”

Master Ku said slowly.

“Oh, when did another artifact forging master appear in the Qi Manor? Why don’t I know?”

Qi Sheng was puzzled.

“This person is not from the Qi Manor. He is currently in the manor. If we can get help from this person, let alone the champion, no one in the younger generation of the entire Li Yuan Kingdom will surpass this master.”

Master Ku’s face was filled with awe, as if he admired him very much, and his tone was exceptionally solemn.

“Hurry up and tell me who it is!”

Qi Sheng hurriedly asked when he heard that there was such a person in the mansion.

“There’s no hurry. I still have one more thing to do today. Why would Prime Minister agree to betroth Xiao Mei to Third Prince Li Xian, that trash?”

Master Ku was puzzled. With the current strength of the Qi Clan, there was no need for them to intentionally establish a relationship with the royal family. There was no need to waste a daughter to get along with the royal family.

“Sigh, do you think I’m willing to do this? If it weren’t for the loneliness of our Qi Clan, why would I be here?” Qi Sheng said helplessly.

“If Xiao Mei really marries Young Master Li Xian, wouldn’t that ruin her life?” Master Ku knew how difficult it was for Prime Minister, but he couldn’t help but feel hatred when he thought of Qi Ruomei marrying Young Master Li Xian.

“Alright, I have already agreed to this matter. It’s too late to change it now. The royal family has already ordered that the wedding will be held as soon as the Equipment Refining Tournament is over.”

Qi Sheng did not want to continue discussing this matter. The matter had already reached an irreversible stage. Even if Master Ku pleaded for mercy and Qi Sheng agreed, the royal family would not agree.

“Just now, you said that there was a Weaponry Refining Master in the Qi Manor. Now, you can say who he is!”

What Qi Sheng was most concerned about was this matter. The Qi Clan had not won the championship for two consecutive terms. If they failed to win this time, the Weaponry Refining Clan would lose all face.

“The kid who injured Young Master Li Xian is in the manor right now.”

Master Ku did not conceal anything and told Ye Feng that he knew him.

“Him?”

Qi Sheng didn’t seem to believe it. Ye Feng looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, yet he made Master Ku feel extremely awe-inspiring. Qi Sheng didn’t believe it.

“Since ancient times, heroes have come out of youth. Prime Minister Qi, you didn’t talk to him in depth. If you knew about his comprehension of artifact forging, you would be deeply impressed.”

Master Ku sighed. Even though he had been involved in artifact forging for decades, he still couldn’t catch up with Ye Feng.

“But you only said that he had comprehension of artifact forging techniques, not true artifact forging techniques. This is completely different. He only knows theory, not artifact forging. He is also unable to help our clan.”

What Master Ku said just now was just some theories. It was completely different from the actual forging process and could not be compared.

“Wrong. Not only is he knowledgeable about forging, but his forging path is way beyond mine.”

Master Ku was shocked to see the Dragon Kill refined by Ye Feng. In the past 30 years, he had never refined such a high-grade spirit artifact.

“But how can we get him to agree to help our Qi Clan participate in the Equipment Refining Tournament this time?”

After all, Ye Feng was not from the Qi Clan. If Ye Feng did not agree, it would be useless for anyone to go.

“Leave this matter to me first. After all, I have no estrangement with him, so it’s easier to communicate with him.”

Master Ku volunteered to convince Ye Feng to help the Qi Clan participate in this year’s Youth Weapon Refining Competition.

“Alright then, I’ll leave this matter to you. I hope that Ye Feng can help our Qi Clan win the championship of the Youth Weapon Refining Tournament. As for the reward, I will definitely need him!”

Qi Sheng hurriedly instructed.

“Time is of the essence. I’ll go now. I’ll take my leave first. As soon as there’s news, I’ll inform Prime Minister immediately.”

After saying that, Master Ku left the study.

Ye Feng chatted with Qi Ruomei for a cup of tea before returning to his room. He planned to leave this place after tonight and head to the Devil Flame Mountain Range.

“Dong dong dong!”

Just as Ye Feng was about to rest, someone knocked on the door of the room, making a thud sound.

“The door is open, please enter!”

Ye Feng’s divine sense had long been emitted, and he could also feel Master Ku’s divine soul, so he hurriedly dressed himself and went down to the ground.

“Master Ku suddenly came to visit. Don’t tell me you still want to discuss artifact forging techniques!” Ye Feng thought that Master Ku had suddenly arrived, so he still had to find him to discuss the issue of forging noodles.

“I came here today to discuss something with you. As for artifact forging techniques, we will discuss them in the future.”

Master Ku frowned and sat down.

“Master Ku, please speak!”

Ye Feng poured tea for Master Ku and said.

“Ye Feng, I’m here to ask you to help me do one thing. I’m also here to help the Qi Clan. I wonder if you’re willing.”

Master Ku did not say what was going on and wanted to probe Ye Feng.

‘”Master Ku is too serious. If there’s anything I can do, I can help. If this junior can’t do it, even if I agree, there’s nothing I can do.”

Seeing Master Ku’s awkward appearance, Ye Feng said.

“It’s like this. The triennial Young Armament Refining Tournament in Li Yuan Country is coming soon. Because the Qi Clan is currently in its infancy and there are no outstanding artificers in the younger generation. I want you to represent the Qi Clan. I wonder if you are willing to participate.”

Master Ku did not conceal anything and told him the purpose of his visit.

“I’m not from the Qi Clan. Furthermore, I don’t want to participate in such a big forging competition. Master Ku, please take back your life!”

Ye Feng didn’t want to participate in the forging competition, so he directly rejected it.

“Ye Feng, don’t refuse in a hurry. Listen to me.”

Master Ku predicted that Ye Feng would refuse. After all, he had no relatives, so why would Ye Feng help the Qi Clan?

“Please speak!”

Ye Feng did not interrupt and let Master Ku finish his sentence.

This time, the forging competition will affect the fate of the Qi Clan. This time, the Qi Clan has already taken in a bunch of troops because of the injury to the prince. If they lose the forging competition, the Qi Clan will probably not feel better in the future. More importantly, are you willing to watch Xiao Mei marry into the palace? Or did you not see the way Xiao Mei looked at you just now?

Master Ku explained his interest. The Qi Clan had already lost a bunch of troops. Although it had nothing to do with Ye Feng, after all, it was Ye Feng who injured the prince. If Ye Feng was willing to help the Qi Clan, it could be considered as giving the other party a favor.

Ye Feng was deep in thought!

Ye Feng did not care about the rise and fall of the Qi Clan. However, Qi Ruomei married Li Xian Young Master. To be honest, Ye Feng did not feel good in his heart. It was not that Ye Feng had any thoughts about Qi Ruomei. He just felt that a flower was planted in cow dung. If he did not see Li Xian Young Master, then it would be fine. Ye Feng had personally witnessed it.

Ye Feng was even more puzzled by Master Ku’s gaze towards Ye Feng. He had seen Qi Ruomei no more than three times before and after, so it was not a relationship between a man and a woman. As for what Qi Ruomei thought, Ye Feng was not clear, and Ye Feng did not want to talk about men and women too early.

“I won’t force you either. If you’re willing, that’s good. If you don’t agree, it’s impossible for you to force us. If you really have the heart to let Xiao Mei marry Young Master Li Xian, I won’t say a word. Pretend that I haven’t been here today.”

Master Ku saw the hesitation on Ye Feng’s face and continued.

“But even if I participate in the Weapon Refining Tournament, it won’t be able to reverse Senior Sister Qi’s fate of marrying Young Master Li Xian. After all, this matter has already spread throughout the entire Imperial City.”

Ye Feng admitted that he did not want Qi Ruomei to marry Young Master Li Xian, but it was already irreversible.

“As long as you are willing to participate in this forging competition, things will change.”

Hearing Ye Feng’s relaxed tone, Master Ku’s face was filled with joy.

‘”Because this time is different from the past, the person who won the championship will be able to ask the royal family to do something for him. This is also a promise made by the royal family. If you win the championship, you can ask the royal family to cancel this marriage.”

Master Ku finally got to the point.

“Let me think about it for a few days!”

Ye Feng did not directly agree. Instead, he thought for a few days and made a decision.

“Good, good. As long as you agree, it’s not in vain to let down Xiao Mei’s affection for you.”

Master Ku laughed out loud.

“Master Ku, don’t make fun of me!”

Ye Feng had a black line, there was nothing that Master Ku was right about.

“Are you really pretending to be foolish? Don’t you know that Xiao Mei has taken a fancy to you?”

Master Ku patted Ye Feng on the shoulder.
