After that, Tai Yi completely let go of the shackles in his heart and wholeheartedly immersed himself in the Dao of Weaponry Refining.

This was because he knew that if he wanted to obtain Miss Dongfang, he had to achieve something in the way of artifact forging, or even surpass her!

This was the only way to completely conquer her soul! It was impossible for Miss Dongfang to marry a useless trash.

Perhaps it was because he was too diligent, kept quiet all day long, and was not good at communicating with others. In addition to his simple and honest appearance, someone secretly coined a nickname for him … Stupid cow!

Whether it was because of jealousy or malice, the nickname became more and more popular and became the object of ridicule.

It was just that things were often so unbelievable that both good and bad depended on each other. This nickname had somehow reached Miss Dongfang’s ears. After inquiring curiously, she quickly found out about Tai Yi’s situation, causing her to look at it with new eyes.

“This is a good seedling. He is quite talented in the way of artifact forging, and he is also so diligent. He can’t be buried by gossip for nothing.”

She transferred Tai Yi to her own forging workshop, the Green Pinglou Building.

Miss Dongfang’s name was Dongfang Qingping.

Tai Yi was fortunate enough to enter the Azure Pipe Building and learn more and more knowledge. His level of artifact forging continued to improve. Soon, he became an Intermediate Artifact Forger and forged a high-grade treasure.

More importantly, he had more opportunities to get in touch with Dongfang Qingping, because she had originally created this Qingping Pavilion.

When they met each other every day, the two sides naturally became more and more familiar.

At the beginning, he was only refining some ordinary treasures on the first floor. Later on, as his level continued to increase, he was able to refine a true artifact and was transferred to the second floor.

Everyone was amazed by Tai Yi’s progress. This was a ferocious beast, but it was unimaginable that it could forge exquisite weapons.

Tai Yi didn’t know why he had improved so quickly. Perhaps he was originally a Demon Saint. His foundation was too deep, so it was naturally easy to learn anything.

Time passed quickly. Another three years passed, and Tai Yi finally became a high-grade artificer. In the entire Dongfang Manor, this could be considered a distinguished guest.

Even a renowned thousand-year sword forging clan like the Dongfang Prefecture wouldn’t have many high-grade artificers, and there might only be a few dozen of them.

Moreover, Tai Yi seemed to be very young, and his future prospects were limitless.

He was no longer the low-ranking blacksmith of the past, nor was he the blacksmith who was ridiculed by others. Everyone in the Eastern Palace would address him respectfully as Mr. Tai Yi.

As the level of artifact forging increased, there were more and more opportunities to meet Miss Dongfang. She did not put on any airs as a young miss and only treated her as a peer.

What she valued was the level of artifact forging. As long as she had any achievements in this field, she would respect her.

“Mr. Tai Yi, I’ve heard a joke before that an ignorant blacksmith wants to marry me. Do you know that?” Dongfang Qingping said with a smile.

Tai Yi blushed and said hesitantly, “To tell you the truth, that person is me. Ever since I first saw Miss Qing Ping that day, I have been deeply in love with you and I can’t help but fall in love with you.”

He took advantage of this opportunity to express his thoughts, his eyes bold and blazing.

Hearing this, Dongfang Qingping seemed to have expected it long ago. He gently picked up his teacup and took a sip. He didn’t dare to look at such a blazing gaze. He lowered his head slightly and said, “I’m trapped in a high-grade artificer. I’ve been unable to break through for a long time, so I’m rather upset in my heart.” Mr. Tai Yi, on the other hand, was a rare genius, starting with a low-level blacksmith and reaching his current level in just a few years. It would be a blessing to have been able to fight Mr Tai Yi. ”

“Fighting? I wonder what Miss Qingping means?”

“You’re a genius, and I’m also a genius. Why don’t the two of us make a bet and compete with each other to refine a spirit artifact first?”

“What if I win?”

“Then I’ll marry you!”

Hearing this, Tai Yi’s entire body trembled. He looked at the beauty in front of him in disbelief and stammered, “Is this … is this true?”

“Of course it’s true. What I said is no joke.” Dongfang Qingping revealed a brilliant smile.

The stakes were settled just like that.

Perhaps because of the pressure of this bet, a year later, Dongfang Qingping successfully refined the first spirit artifact and named it the Azure Azure Sword.

Tai Yi, on the other hand, failed to do so. Obviously, he had failed and missed the best opportunity to marry Dongfang Qingping.

It was simply too difficult to refine spirit artifacts. Without relying on manpower, one had to have an objective foundation. No matter how talented a person was, it was impossible for them to be able to refine spirit artifacts in one go.

Another year later, Tai Yi successfully refined a spirit artifact and became a master artificer.

Fortunately, Dongfang Qingping still married him and returned with the beauty as she wished.

On bridal night, Tai Yi unveiled Dongfang Qingping and asked curiously, “I don’t quite understand why you still want to marry me since I lost that bet.”

Dongfang Qingping smiled faintly, “Do you think that if I didn’t really want to marry you, I would have set such a bet with you?”

Tai Yi suddenly came to a realization. How could a normal bet take a life event as a stake? Most importantly, this bet was not equal, because he could carry the beauty back if he won, but he didn’t have to pay anything if he lost.

Originally, he thought that the two sides were united because of the stakes, but now, it seemed that it was only because of you and me in each other’s hearts.

“Madam, it’s Spring Festival. Let’s rest now.” Tai Yi gently hugged Dongfang Qingping in his arms, and a wretched smile appeared on his seemingly honest face.

Soon, a moving groan came from the room…

“This fellow is indeed worthy of being born in Demon Clan. He is very fierce in bed. He hasn’t stopped in the middle of the night. This time, he has completely subdued the beauty.” Li Qing’s eyes widened as he stared fixedly at the spring scenery in front of him.

After getting married, Tai Yi’s status rose. Not only was he a master blacksmith, he was also the son-in-law of the Dongfang Clan.

However, Tai Yi did not have an official name. It was just a number. This was clearly not on par with his status. In order to appear more formal, the Dongfang Clan officially gave him the surname of his own clan.

From then on, this former Great Sage of Demon Clan had taken root in the Dongfang Clan. His full name was Dongfang Tai Yi.

Time passed quickly, and countless years passed. In short, it was a very long period of time.

“What’s wrong with you two? You haven’t had any children yet?” An old man slapped the table and angrily said to Tai Yi and Dongfang Qingping in the east.

“Father, we don’t know what’s going on. We’ve slept together quite a few times, but I don’t have any children. Perhaps it’s because my stomach isn’t good enough.” Dongfang Qingping said.

Dongfang Tai Yi remained silent. He knew the reason why they had no children.

Because he was Demon Clan, how could Demon Clan have children with humans?

“It can’t be that you guys are so obsessed with artifact forging that you don’t have the mood to have children, right?” Landowner Dongfang looked at them suspiciously.

“Father, why do you think that? Although we are obsessed with artifact forging, we are not stupid to this extent.” Dongfang Qingping argued.

“Father-in-law, we are actually Xiantian experts. There is no need to be so anxious when our lifespan reaches 200 years.” Dongfang Tai Yi comforted.

“Forget it, I can’t be too strict with you young people. As long as you know what’s going on in your heart, it’s fine.” Landowner Dongfang sighed.

At this time, Dongfang Tai Yi was already a tool forging grandmaster. The speed of his progress had shocked the entire Azure Mountain City. He was simply a genius that hadn’t appeared in a thousand years.

Landowner Dongfang didn’t dare to be too strict with such a powerful person. Fortunately, his daughter’s relationship with her son-in-law had always been good, so there weren’t any hidden dangers.

Time passed quickly, and another three years passed. The level of artifact forging in Dongfang Tai Yi improved even more.

At this moment, Landowner Dongfang took out a piece of divine iron that was glittering with starlight and said to his daughter’s son-in-law, “This is a treasure passed down from our Dongfang Clan’s ancestors, a piece of Nine Stripes Star Iron!”

“What? Nine Stripes Star Iron! Rumor has it that this kind of divine iron can be used to forge Dao Artifacts?” Dongfang Qingping exclaimed.

“That’s right, it’s a Dao Artifact material. Otherwise, how could it be used as an ancestral treasure?” Landowner Dongfang’s face was filled with excitement. “After so many years of accumulation by my Dongfang Clan, I have finally prepared all the ingredients for refining Dao Artifacts. I plan to choose a lucky day to start refining Dao Artifacts!”

“Refining Dao Artifacts! Are you really confident?” Dongfang Tai Yi said in surprise.

“Naturally, I’m not confident. With my level, the success rate of refining a Dao Artifact may be less than 10%. However, even if I can’t refine a Dao Artifact, I should still be able to forge a top-grade spirit artifact. This isn’t too bad.”

“Father-in-law, why don’t you wait for a while longer? When my refining level rises, wouldn’t the success rate increase greatly if the three of us work together to refine it?”

‘”I’m getting older. If I don’t start refining now, I’m afraid that my old age and strength will weaken in the future. I might as well take advantage of this opportunity to fight. If I succeed, then I, Clan leader of the Dongfang Clan, will be able to go down in history.” A fanatical expression appeared on his face.

Refining a Dao Artifact with one’s own hands was indeed something that was enough to make everyone extremely excited.

This matter was settled just like that, and the lucky day for the start of refining was chosen on the fifth day of the next month. This matter did not spread out. Only the three of them knew about it, and they announced that they wanted to forge a spirit artifact.
