Chapter 172: She Wants to Be Stronger

Yu Mei returned to the Qin residence, and in the courtyard, Zhen Tianyi was still instructing the Second Son of Qin family on swordsmanship.

She could see that Zhen Tianyi indeed appreciated the Qin family’s boy and was interested in accepting him as a disciple.

However, the man couldn’t overcome the hurdle in his heart, which was why he proposed a knife forging test.

“He gave that young man from the Qin family a glimmer of hope, but isn’t he also trying to sever his own attachments?” Yu Mei sighed, her expression melancholic.

Having experienced the difficulty of forging a second identical weapon at the Divine Workshop when she was in Imperial City, Yu Mei, even with hints and intelligence provided to Qin Feng, still didn’t hold high expectations.

“If it doesn’t work out, perhaps I’ll have to resort to more forceful methods. If his life is threatened, I wonder if that old man will loosen his tongue.” Yu Mei mumbled to herself.

“But that old man is formidable too. I don’t know if it will be successful,” she contemplated the feasibility of her plan.

The master of the Divine Workshop, Yuan Zhai, appeared to be just a craftsman on the surface, but his strength was not to be underestimated.

There were even rumors in Imperial City that Yuan Zhai’s strength might rival the thirty-six stars of the Demon Slaying Department.

Although this claim needed verification, Yu Mei believed it wasn’t far from the truth.

Even though Yuan Zhai had never personally taken action,Yu Mei had the opportunity to see him wield a hammer for forging.

When that iron hammer struck, it created a powerful wind, and with each blow, the workshop floor would tremble.

The weight of that iron hammer must have reached an incredible level.

However, someone who could effortlessly wield such an iron hammer couldn’t be weak.

Of course, unless absolutely necessary, Yu Mei wouldn’t resort to threatening the old man.

It wasn’t fear of his strength; after all, she was not far behind in rank among the thirty-six stars.

The main reason was that, aside from being a bit stubborn, the old man was a good person and had a wide circle of friends.

Threatening such a person for her selfish desires would make her feel guilty.

But if she gave up this opportunity, when would that blockhead finally enlighten himself?This chapter's initial release occurred on the n0vell--Bjjn site.

Yu Mei sighed again, “I hope that young man from the Qin family can give me a pleasant surprise.”

Just then, she sensed movement outside the Qin residence, “Is he back?”

Even my master once said that even if he joins the Demon Slaying Department, in terms of strength he would probably only rank around the top ten. And that’s if he overestimates himself.

So, you don’t have to worry too much.” the white-clad beauty said confidently.

“Moreover, he has you to protect him,” Liu Jianli added after some thought.

“Although that’s true, Miss, the experts in the Demon Slaying Department can’t always stay by the young master’s side. If not for Senior Zhen Tianyi and others coming to the rescue during the invasion of Jinyang City last time, with my strength alone, I wouldn’t have been able to protect the young master.” Lan Ningshuang said with her lips pressed together and fists clenched.

The more she learned about this world, the more she felt her own weakness and powerlessness.

Liu Jianli, seeing this, opened her mouth slightly but didn’t know how to comfort her.

After a few moments, Lan Ningshuang took a breath and said, “Miss, supervise my cultivation today.”

“Alright!” Liu Jianli lightly opened her red lips. Soon, a figure in blue robes gracefully moved onto the surface of the lake and stood silently.

Liu Jianli looked at the figure on the lake, lost in thought.

So, he joined the Demon Slaying Department. Thinking back to that day in Jinyang City, with strong enemies appearing one after another amid the storm and thunder, it was indeed a formidable situation.

Facing the enemy with peculiar abilities that can devour the void,

She initially intended to resolve it within a short time and return to Qin Feng’s side for protection.

However, the two sides fought for a long time, and neither could overcome the other.

Moreover, she faintly felt that the opponent had not exerted their full strength.

Demons and Ghosts are rampant in the world. In areas where humans dared not tread, deep in the mountains, on the summit of clouds and mist, in the depths of the sea, powerful enemies like this were everywhere.

Furthermore, beyond the Four Regions of The Great Qian Dynasty, there were the watchful eyes of foreign tribes.

The Sword Intent at the fifth level of the Myriad Gods Realm was considered transcendent in the eyes of ordinary people.

But for her, it seemed like just another starting point.

To protect that person, she needed to become even stronger.

Powerful enough to slay any monster or demon in the world.

And this idea intensified even more upon learning that Qin Feng had joined the Demon Slaying Department.

“Third grade. Just wait a bit longer.” she sighed quietly, disappearing into the wind.
