Li Qing finally understood that the origin of Tai Yi’s name was only a number.

Moreover, this could also explain why Tai Yi was able to forge a divine sword. He dared to learn the artifact forging technique from this place.

“A thousand-year-old Sword Forging Clan, tsk tsk.” Li Qing couldn’t help but reveal an interested expression, wanting to see how such a Demon Clan could learn human artifact forging techniques.

As a low-level blacksmith, Tai Yi had no chance to forge weapons himself. His current status was a blacksmith to put it nicely, but to put it nicely, he was actually just a blacksmith’s errand boy.

Apart from the fixed task of hammering 30 jin of refined iron every day, he also needed to pick up 100 loads of water and cut down 10 trees. This was not an easy task for ordinary people.

Fortunately, Tai Yi wasn’t an ordinary person. He had transformed into Demon Clan, and his body was sealed with terrifying power. As he went through more and more training during the mission, he discovered that his body’s strength had also become stronger and stronger.

That seemed to be the power contained in his body, which was constantly released as he trained and merged into his body.

After an entire year of hard training, he had forged his muscles and bones, and his strength was even stronger than many successful martial artists.

His outstanding performance quickly attracted the attention of those who were interested. He was bestowed with a “108-Hand Cloak Chaos Hammer Technique” and was upgraded to an Intermediate Blacksmith.

Time passed quickly.

In the third year, he had completely mastered the essence of the 108-hand cloak hammer technique, and his strength had grown stronger and stronger. His entire body was filled with strong muscles, as if he was cast from steel.

Thanks to his outstanding performance, he was promoted to a high-level blacksmith once again, qualified to participate in the forging of ordinary swords.

During this period of time, he was fortunate enough to obtain a cultivation technique. After a few attempts, he discovered that his body was unable to cultivate true energy.

However, this was completely useless, because all the spiritual energy he absorbed was fused into his flesh and blood, making his body even more tyrannical.

If there was no way to refine Qi, then he could only refine his body.

His demonic body was gradually recovering, which made his spirit especially excited. He believed that not long after, he would be able to leave this human body and turn back into the terrifying Great Sage of Demon Clan.

In the fourth year, this was the first time he saw the eldest young miss of the Dongfang Clan. Back then, when he was rescued by the Dongfang Manor, I heard that it was this young miss Dongfang who gave the order.

It could be said that this young miss was his savior, and he was very grateful in his heart.

He had long since heard of this young lady’s name. Rumors had it that she was as beautiful as a heavenly immortal, and she was also a rare genius in artifact forging.

She is the dream lover of all blacksmiths in the Dongfang family.

It didn’t matter to Tai Yi because he was originally a Demon Clan and didn’t possess the aesthetic standards of a human. Many beautiful women who looked very beautiful in the eyes of humans were ordinary in his eyes.

However, when he really saw Miss Dongfang, this idea was quickly overturned, and a strange feeling surged in his heart.

This feeling was extremely wonderful, causing his face to flush red and his heart to beat faster.

“What’s wrong with me? Why do I have such strong emotions in my heart?” He couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Eldest Miss Dongfang turned her head and looked at Tai Yi with a trace of curiosity in her eyes.

“Is this Tai Yi? I heard that you upgraded to a high-grade blacksmith a few years later. Your progress can be said to be astonishing.” Her voice was pleasant to the ear.

He had heard this voice a long time ago. When he fell to the side of the road, it was this voice that saved him from the brink of death.

Facing this beautiful woman, he suddenly felt suffocated. He was speechless. He stared at this fairy-like figure in front of him, and a strong desire surged in his heart.

“I must get her! I must get her!” His heart was roaring, and his eyes were flickering with a blazing light.

Miss Dongfang was clearly shocked by this blazing sensation. She couldn’t help but take a step back and whispered, “This person seems to be a little strange.”

The steward beside him smiled and said, “This Tai Yi’s personality is a little strange. He is usually quiet. Perhaps now that he sees that the young miss is a little nervous and speechless, please don’t take offense.”

“It’s fine, let’s go.”

Miss Dongfang turned around and left, leaving behind only a fragrant breeze. Tai Yi’s eyes stared at the beautiful figure from beginning to end, lingering in his mind for a long time.

After a while, a joke spread among blacksmiths. They heard that there was a big fool who wanted to marry Miss Dongfang, which made everyone laugh at him for overestimating himself.

How could a high and mighty fairy marry a dirty blacksmith?

And this person who was ridiculed was buried in the furnace every day, diligently studying all kinds of knowledge about forging weapons. Soon after, he finally forged his first treasured sword.

Such a breakthrough allowed Tai Yi to successfully break away from being a blacksmith and become a noble blacksmith.

From now on, he was no longer a lowly laborer, but a high-ranking artificer. Although he was only a low-ranking artificer, he had already taken a crucial step forward.

He could see respectful gazes in people’s eyes!

Another two years had passed. Tai Yi felt that his body was getting stronger and stronger, almost about to break through his body.

If this continued, he seemed to be able to break through the shackles of the human body and return to the demon body.

He lowered his head and looked at his hands. Because he had been forging refined iron and forging weapons for a long time, he was now filled with thick calluses.

Above, his long-tempered, sturdy arms were filled with powerful muscles and contained explosive power.

If he really recovered his Demon Saint body, then his calloused palm and strong arm would disappear forever, turning into a pair of sharp claws.

“Do you want to change back?” His thoughts were struggling violently.

“If you want to become a human again after you change back, then it will be difficult.”

“When I become a Demon Saint again, I will have to leave the prosperous human world. I will no longer be able to experience the wonderful life here. Most importantly, there is the woman I long for!”

“Everything here is really hard to forget, hard to abandon! It turns out that the human world is so wonderful, a hundred times more wonderful than my life as a demonic beast, a thousand times more wonderful!”

“After becoming a Demon Saint, although I once again possess unmatched power, I will spend the rest of my life in the mountains. Other than sleeping, I will grow up in sleep and die in sleep every day. What’s the point of such a life?”

“No, I don’t want to go back to the dull life of the past. I want to be a human, I don’t want to be a demonic beast!”

After a struggle in his heart, he finally made up his mind.

“From now on, there will be no King Jin Wu in this world. Only the artificer of the Dongfang Clan, Tai Yi!”
