Chapter Forty: Casting the Sword
neglect his duties, who do you think spread it"Zhong Xuan's face turned black with anger.This is going to make Zheng Shi hate me to death.After returning from the Yellow River confluence, he repeatedl...Only then did Jiang Wang understand. That was why even a powerful family like Chongxuan Sheng would envy Lian Que for helping him forge a sword.
Just from this sword furnace alone, the quality of its products is extraordinary!
Within the Sword Forest, only this one remains.
Beyond the sword furnace, there wasn't even a shed, so it probably didn't fear wind or rain.
At this time, besides Lian Que Jiang Wang, there was no one else.
This stove has been claimed by the sparrow today.
The sparrowhawk performed a complex ancient ritual in front of the sword furnace, kneeling and bowing, muttering words under his breath, with utmost sincerity.
It was a customary courtesy practiced before the Li Clan began forging swords, and it wasn't obligatory for others to follow.
But Jiang Wang also bowed three times seriously.
This hearth fire, though our homeland has fallen and we have been forced from it, has never gone out.

This profound sense of weightiness spanning across time is worthy of his respect.
After the ceremony, Lian Que stood up and asked, “Have you thought about what kind of sword you want”
Jiang Wang was speechless.
Shouldn't this be something the Master Smith should consider
Seeing his appearance, the sparrow knew that he had not made up his mind.
He shook his head and said, "This is your sword. It will grow into your heart, your intention, your hand. You must first understand your hand, your intention, your heart."
"Just sit here and meditate for a while, clear your mind." Lian Que walked towards the sword furnace, "I'll take this opportunity to reorganize my materials."
My hand, my will...my heart
Ginger Wang has always been sincere and clear about what she wants. She has always been determined to move forward.
But as for what kind of sword I wanted, I've never really thought about it.

He respected Lian Que's authority as the master blacksmith, and without regard for whether the ground was clean, he immediately sat down cross-legged and began meditating, emptying his mind.
The sparrowhawk was rubbing ore against the sword furnace, and when it turned around to see Jiang Wang already in meditation, it nodded approvingly.
Whatever the reason that self in the secret realm of Tianfu handed over their life token, at least it seems now that they didn't misjudge anyone within the secret realm of Tianfu.
This person's natural talent and disposition are both the best of the best.
After Jiang Wang entered meditation, he lost all sense of time. His mind became empty and tranquil.
It was a mysterious feeling, like a weight lifted off his shoulders, his mind clear and serene. But that didn't mean he lost his vigilance.
The sound of laughter suddenly reached my ears. It turned out to be a group of people walking out of the sword formation and coming to the furnace.
When Jiang Wang opened his eyes, he saw the young man at the front addressing Lian Que with a neutral tone: "Yo, Brother Lian Que, what brings you here"
Lian Que wasn't known for being a good-tempered person, but for some reason, he didn't seem to be angry with this individual. He simply said: "The sword furnace will be locked down for the next few days until I finish forging the sword. Lian Shao, if you want to observe the sword furnace, I'm afraid you'll have to wait a while."
Lian Shao had the typical appearance of a native from Nanyang City. He was dark-skinned, tall and broad-shouldered. His face was square and wide, with decent features.

Of course, just being well-featured already surpasses the sparrow in every way.
“Even you, with the ancient furnace forging weapons, have only three chances in a lifetime. Is that all you've got”
Lian Shao turned in surprise, looking at Jiang Wang who was sitting cross-legged on the ground: "Who is this esteemed guest"
He was asking knowing full well the answer.
Lian Que participated in the Tianfu Secret Realm with great fanfare, but came out empty-handed in the end. The news has spread throughout Nanyang. Now many people are saying that he knelt and begged for mercy in the Tianfu Secret Realm, even offering up his life token, before being allowed to live.

He was so meticulous in forging weapons for Jiang Wang because this was a deal they had made in the Heavenly Treasure Secret Realm.
These words came from an unknown source and are impossible to refute. After all, no one remembers what happened in the Tianfu Secret Realm, and it's a fact that Lian Que returned empty-handed and surrendered their life card.
Even the Sparrow King wouldn't get angry, and Jiang Wang wouldn't overstep. He simply sat cross-legged and said: "I am Jiang Wang. I'm not some kind of divine being. I'm just a friend of Brother Sparrow."

“It’s you, Elder Jiang, I've heard much about you.” Lian Shao bowed slightly as a gesture of respect, then smiled and said, “Thank you for returning my younger brother Lian Que’s nameplate. You truly are a man of honor!”

After the end of the Tianfu Secret Realm, Jiang Wang was no longer an unknown figure in Qi Country. Firstly, he had reserved a place in the Divine Ability Inner Palace, and secondly, he was a good friend of Chongxuan Sheng.
Just these two points. As long as Lian Shao isn't stupid to a certain extent, he wouldn't provoke him for no reason. Most of the hostility is directed at Lian Que.
Jiang Wang shook his head. "Perhaps you're not familiar with me yet, but you'll get to know me in the future. I'm not someone who likes to threaten others. When there's a grudge, I usually only see life and death. The fate card should just be a token given to me by Brother Lianque. Of course, I wouldn't be so shameless as to use it as leverage."
From Lian Shao's words, he realized that Lian Que was facing a public opinion crisis and had to come forward to explain.
Regardless of what happened in the Tianfu Secret Realm, Lian Que is now wholeheartedly forging his sword. That's what he should be doing.
Moreover, he will stay in Qi for a period of time next, it is very necessary to let the people of Qi understand him.
This statement serves both as a testament to the honesty of the magpie and as a demonstration of his own attitude and power.
On the other hand, Lian Que himself didn't seem to care. He simply gave a cold dismissal: "That's enough, Lian Shao. You can stay here until the sword forging begins. Now I'm about to start, according to the rules, you have to leave."

Satire is useless, and provocation is inappropriate.
With all the family rules broken, Lian Shao had no reason to stay any longer. He could only leave in a huff with his people.
Jiang Wang watched the person walk back to the sword formation, lost in thought.
"You seem puzzled, wondering why I'm so good-tempered" Lian Que asked as she walked towards him.
Jiang Wang smiled sheepishly: "I'm a little curious."
"Lian Shao is actually not a bad person." Lian Que walked over and pinched an incantation, locking the sword formation.
He just muttered, "He's just a poor man."
Jiang Wang looked at him, expressing doubt.
"Each generation of the Lian family, only ten people can control their own fate cards. I am one of them. He is not."
The sparrow simply said that, and explained no further.
Even when he first heard about the fate cards outside the Tianfu Secret Realm, Jiang Wang had felt puzzled.
Wherever you are, it is a sad thing that life and death are controlled by others. The Liang family is well-known, why would they establish such a system
But the sparrow did not elaborate, and he refrained from asking further.
“Come here and sit on the cushion to the left of the sword furnace.” Lian Que commanded, handing over a fist-sized, blood-red stone: “Cover it with both hands and input Dao Yuan.”
Ginger naturally followed his instructions.
Lian Que explained, "This corresponds to the firestone for the Jianlu. The Jianlu itself has sufficient firepower to allow you to infuse your Dao Yuan. It's simply to make your sword more familiar with you and more suited to your intentions during the forging process."
While you are inputting Dao Yuan, it is best to empty your mind and meditate. This way, the Dao Yuan you input will be purer and better represent your inner self. When Dao Yuan runs out, stop and don't force it, as it won't affect my sword forging.
“It’s best,” he added, “of course, the longer it lasts, the better.”
Lian Que didn't bring a pile of Dao Yuan stones for Jiang Wang to replenish at any time.
Because in general circumstances, Dao Yuan Stone cannot extract Dao Yuan instantaneously and a breathing process is required. This process itself interrupts the infusion of Dao Yuan.

Each person has their own area of expertise.
When it came to forging the sword, Jiang Wang placed his trust unconditionally in Lian Que. He didn't offer any suggestions or ideas as if he knew better.
He had not yet become so arrogant as to challenge the thousand-year history of the Liang family's swordsmithing with his shallow understanding.
A sparrow does whatever it says.
At that moment, he crossed his legs on the cushion to the left of the sword furnace and closed his eyes in meditation. His Tao Yuan flowed continuously toward the red circular stone in his palm.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
For a moment, it seemed as if the whole world had gone silent, with only the sound of the leaping flames in the hearth.
It's not really a case of one side depending on the other.
In short, slowly overlap with your own heartbeat.
