277: Chapter 277 Peacock Feather
Entering the Blacksmith Guild, there were many sounds of forging. Before long, a short, stout man with a face full of white beard caught their attention.
He held a diamond chisel in his hand, swinging his arm continuously at a piece of meteorite iron.
That piece of meteorite iron was changing shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Its outer appearance resembled a peacock spreading its tail.
It was a cylindrical shape, about a foot long.
It was small in volume.
Su Wen and his group did not disturb him, watching quietly.
They stood there for an hour.
Tian Yue became a bit impatient midway.
She had no interest in this thing.
Su Wen held down her shoulder, and she finally settled down.
The meteorite iron eventually took on a brilliant and dazzling form.
It looked like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.
"Hahaha!"
Lou Gao suddenly let out a hearty laugh.
He held the Peacock Plume in his hand, examining it from left to right.
"Congratulations, Teacher!"
Si Long also walked over quickly, his face full of smiles.
Lou Gao shook his head: "No, this is still just a semi-finished product. It will need many subsequent steps before it can truly be completed. This Hidden Weapon is too complex and requires time to refine."
"Tch, isn't it just a piece of iron? What's there to be happy about, making us stand here for so long."
Tian Yue interrupted Lou Gao's joyful mood.
He turned around to look at the people in front of him, especially Tian Yue, his expression showing faint displeasure.
"Teacher, they are from Tianshui Academy, Disciples of Teacher Shui Ningbing, who came specifically to ask you for a piece of defensive gear!"
Si Long explained, also glancing at Tian Yue with some displeasure.
"Heh, when did Shui Ningbing take in a male Disciple? I recall that Tianshui Academy does not recruit men!"
Lou Gao cast his gaze onto Su Wen. He did not know if it was an illusion, but this man gave him a sense of danger.
"Peacock Plume!"
Upon seeing the Peacock Plume, Su Wen knew that Tang Hao and Tang San had already been here.
A flash of killing intent crossed his eyes.
The Hidden Weapons forged by Lou Gao had allowed Tang San to shine brilliantly.
Even people from the Hall of Worship had been injured by them.
"You know about the Peacock Plume?"
Lou Gao was momentarily stunned.
He didn't expect outsiders to know about this Hidden Weapon.
Tang San had said the one in his hand was the only one.
"May I ask Great Master Lou Gao, how many Hidden Weapons have you forged?"
Su Wen asked with a smile.
Lou Gao asked: "Who exactly are you? How do you know about the Peacock Plume, and how do you know about Hidden Weapons?"
"I know more than just the Peacock Plume; I even know that you already have the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus and the Storm Pear Blossom in your hands!"
According to the current situation, the Storm Pear Blossom should not have appeared yet.
After all, it requires Lou Gao to sacrifice himself to sharpen it.
Even if it hasn't appeared, Lou Gao must have already started forging it.
"You... you are not from Tianshui Academy, who exactly are you?"
Lou Gao looked at them vigilantly.
"Senior, you should answer me first: how many Hidden Weapons have you forged?"
Su Wen stepped forward, and six great spirit rings rose from beneath his feet.
One yellow, one purple, three black, and one red.
As soon as the terrifying six great spirit rings appeared.
Lou Gao was frozen on the spot.
Si Long even rubbed his eyes.
A red spirit ring?
"Holy Son of Spirit Hall!"
"So you are the Holy Son of Spirit Hall. Some time ago, rumors spread that the Holy Son of Spirit Hall had special spirit rings. I didn't take it to heart, thinking it was just the Spirit Hall creating hype. I didn't expect that there really is someone on the continent possessing such terrifying spirit rings!"
Lou Gao clenched his hands together. The other party was clearly only a Spirit Emperor.
Yet the other party could bring him such a strong sense of oppression.
This meant he had completely lost in terms of Soul Power.
"What do you want?"
"This is not Spirit City!"
"Even if you are the Holy Son of Spirit Hall, you should abide by the rules here!"
Si Long looked at everyone with a warning.
"Tch, what kind of crappy rules? So what if I beat you up? Do you dare to hit me back?"
Tian Yue made a fierce face.
Si Long was instantly enraged, and his six great spirit rings also rose instantly from beneath his feet.
The other blacksmiths also heard the commotion and gathered around.
Each of them took a defensive stance.
Lou Gao held down Si Long's shoulder.
He knew that once a fight started, things would spiral out of control.
The consequences would be unimaginable.
"Saint, what is it that you have come here for?"
"If it is just to forge protective gear, you only need to wait a moment, and I will customize it for you personally!"
Lou Gao's tone carried a concession.
Su Wen smiled playfully: "I want three Hidden Weapons: the Peacock Plume, the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus, and the Storm Pear Blossom!"
Lou Gao's expression was subtle: "Saint, to tell you the truth, I have the blueprints for these three Hidden Weapons, but currently, I have only forged a semi-finished Peacock Plume. I am still studying the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus and the Storm Pear Blossom. Furthermore, taking a step back, even if I really forged them, these three Hidden Weapons have already been commissioned by someone else. Forgive me for not being able to give them to the Saint."
The people of the Blacksmith Guild looked at each other; Lou Gao was right.
If the Spirit Hall were to seize them by force, how would that be any different from a bandit?
"Tang Hao?"
Silence!
Upon hearing the name of the Clear Sky Douluo, everyone's expression changed.
This name was too resounding. Killing a Spirit Hall Pope, and being the youngest Titled Douluo on the continent, it was hard not to remember this name.
For a moment, the people around looked at Lou Gao. Lou Gao was actually forging Hidden Weapons for such a person.
No wonder the Spirit Hall came; Tang Hao had been wanted by the Spirit Hall all along.
If Tang Hao obtained the Hidden Weapons, he would definitely use them to kill people from the Spirit Hall.
"I, I don't know what you are talking about..."
"What, Great Master Lou Gao, the president of the Blacksmith Guild, is also the kind of petty person who dares to do things but dares not admit them?"
"You are not allowed to slander my teacher!"
Si Long was furious.
"Si Long!"
Lou Gao once again stopped the about-to-go-berserk Si Long.
He looked at Su Wen and spoke earnestly: "Saint, I am just a blacksmith. I forge whatever the customer wants. I do not wish to be involved in the affairs between the Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect."
"Haha, this is not just a matter between the Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect; this is also a personal vendetta between Tang Hao and me. I can tell you clearly: Tang Hao killed my parents, and I will definitely make his relatives pay with their lives. If Great Master Lou Gao wants to get involved, I can bury you all right here!"
"What!"
Lou Gao's expression changed abruptly.
Tang Hao and the Saint actually had such a deep grudge.
The people around were also somewhat surprised.
The Holy Son of Spirit Hall was really serious this time.
"Saint, even if you kill me, with my personal strength, I cannot forge three Hidden Weapons in a short time."
Seeing the killing intent in Su Wen's eyes, Lou Gao was silent for a moment and eventually chose to compromise.
Su Wen smiled and chose to ask for the blueprints.
As long as he had the blueprints, with the vast resources of the Spirit Hall, they could imitate a few.
If they couldn't make them, then it would be almost impossible to find anyone else on the entire continent who could.
"Saint, at the end of the day, you are only a Spirit Emperor. I want to talk to the person behind you!"
"As the president of the Blacksmith Guild and holding the title of the head of the three great Divine Craftsmen, I hope the Saint will give me some face."
