Chapter 165: The Test of Passing the Knife
Early the next morning, Qin Feng looked at the green jade token and appointment letter by his bedside, a myriad of emotions welling up within him.
Just like that, he abruptly joined the Demon Slaying Department.The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.
“How unpredictable life is.” Qin Feng sighed, lifting the covers and getting up to dress.
Originally, Yang He intended to ask for his measurements and make him a green Demon Slayer robe. However, he declined, mainly because green was an ominous color.
For a man, especially one with a beautiful wife, wearing such colors would be considered somewhat ominous.
However, Qin Feng thought Yang He and his two single friends probably wouldn’t understand this reasoning. He shook his head, thinking so.
The door of the room was pushed open, and Qing’er stepped in. “Young Master, good morning.”
Every time at this hour, she would come to clean the room.
Qin Feng nodded in acknowledgment, straightened his clothes, and hung the green jade token at his waist.
“This exquisite green jade token complements the black clothes perfectly.” Qin Feng said, looking down and quite satisfied.
Initially, he had hesitated about joining the Demon Slaying Department. Still, after actually joining, he found an indescribable feeling in his heart.
People within the Demon Slaying Department, upon receiving the Demon Slayer token, were considered part of the official establishment of the Great Qin. A Demon Slayer holding the green jade token was, strictly speaking, equivalent to a sixth-rank military officer.
Thinking about it this way, setting aside the danger, joining the Demon Slaying Department was not bad at all. Qin Feng smirked, comforting himself in this way.
“Master, breakfast in the main hall is already prepared,” Qing’er called.
“I won’t have breakfast today; I need to go to the Demon Slaying Department.” I wonder what expressions Miss Cang and Master Si will have when they see that I’ve joined the Demon Slaying Department?
Qin Feng couldn’t wait. “By the way, Qing’er, is the token too conspicuous on me?”
Qing’er carefully examined him and earnestly gave advice, “If Young Master wants to cover the token, you can shorten the string and use a belt to block it.”
“I see.” After hearing this, Qin Feng lengthened the token’s string, then deliberately changed it to a thinner belt.
Looking down, the green jade token became even more eye-catching. Satisfied, he left the room, leaving Qing’er with a bewildered expression.
Walking towards the Qin residence’s lakeside pavilion, passing through the courtyard, the wind whistled in his ears.
Is he going to pass on a knife, establishing a master-disciple relationship?
“But unfortunately, that old guy has a rule. He never forges the same type of weapon a second time. He has already forged the Sky Cutting Knife for me before, so he probably won’t forge another knife. Well, let’s give it a try.” Zhen Tianyi said, rubbing his chin.
Sky Cutting Knife?
So, the silver-white long knife in Senior Zhen Tianyi’s hands is the Sky Cutting Knife? One of the twelve supreme weapons of the Divine Workshop!
The old friend mentioned by Senior Zhen Tianyi must be the old man in the Divine Workshop who crafted the twelve supreme weapons!
Suddenly, Qin Feng thought of the white-haired old man surrounded by everyone yesterday morning.
The two figures gradually merged into one.
I must find a way to get that old man to forge a knife for my second brother.
Once the knife is passed, the master-disciple relationship will be firmly established.
Thinking this, Qin Feng said, “Elder, please rest assured. I will definitely convey the message and try my best to get him to agree.”
“No need to force it.” Zhen Tianyi nodded, and Qin Feng took his leave.
Under Zhen Tianyi’s instructions, Black Charcoal Head entered the courtyard to spar with the second brother.
At this moment, Yu Mei spoke, “Are you testing them? Or are you making it difficult for them to continue?”
“I can see that you are quite satisfied with the second young master of the Qin family. If that’s the case, why not directly take him as your disciple?”
Zhen Tianyi glanced at the knife wound on his right side and thought of the gray-haired man who caused trouble in Jinyang City.
He said calmly, “Not everything in this world can go according to one’s own will. I’ve given them this opportunity, whether they can seize it or not depends on the ability of that young man from the Qin family.”
“To say it’s an opportunity is just an excuse to give yourself a reason to leave with a clear conscience. Back then, I begged that old man for a long time, but he refused to forge another sword for me. How could he change the rules today for a young man he has never met?” Yu Mei threw these words down and turned away.
“Where are you going?” Zhen Tian asked curiously.
“Here and there.”
As soon as the words fell, in the blink of an eye, there was no trace of Yu Mei to be seen anywhere. Zhen Tian shook his head in confusion, not understanding, and re-entered the courtyard.
