Chapter Ten: Heavenly Star

  "Brave Tigers, drive them away!"

  Yun Zhongzi pointed at the young noble dressed in bright clothes and several wicked servants.

  "Yes, young master!"

  The two responded in unison, lifting their feet to kick several evil servants flying out. With their hands, they dealt with several evil servants, which was effortless and effortless.

  "You little brat, who are you? Dare to order your servant to lay hands on me, do you want to die?"

  The finely dressed young master took a step back in fear, then remembered his identity and immediately became angry and humiliated, pointing at Yun Zhongzi and shouting.

  Yun Zhongzi's evil smile, said: "Then you tell me, who are you?"

  "Hmph, you little brat, listen up!" The young master adjusted his clothes and said proudly, "I am Yan Wupi, the son of Yan Gaoting, the chief alchemist of Yunfu. Do you know what Yunfu is? That's one of the most powerful families in my country of Dafeng! Alchemists should know that! Hey, little brat, you don't even know, hurry up and apologize, hand over these two guards to me, or else, wait for your family to be destroyed!"

  Hu Zhong and Hu Yong showed a strange expression, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh, with contemptuous eyes.

  Yun Zhongzi shook his head and sighed, "Indeed, like father, like son. Tiger Zhong, if they dare to utter another word, execute them on the spot!" He gave the order and ignored them from then on.

  Clang...

  The long sword was drawn from its scabbard, and the cold light it emitted made Yan Wupi's heart skip a beat, causing him to hastily retreat several steps.

  "You, you guys... just wait and see!"

  Yan Wuchi thought to threaten a few words, but seeing the killing intent in Hu Zhong's eyes and the breathtaking aura, he immediately became cold and hastily led the crowd of evil slaves to flee.

  "Why don't you fight back?" Yun Zhongzi walked up to Niu Chai and looked up at him, saying, "With your strength, beating them up shouldn't be a problem!"

  Hehehe......

  "My mother said so, can't hit people, if you hit someone badly, no one will give you food to eat!"

  "Where's your mother?"

  "My mother is dead, I'm all alone now!"

  "Then how do you live?"

  "There's an old man over there, he gives us a few big steamed buns every day, so we won't starve! And if we pick up some more food, we can even eat our fill!" Niu Chai pointed to the Yunfu not far away.

  It should be the old steward, Yun Zhongzi thought, "Follow me, how about it? Every day steamed buns are enough, meat is full, how about it?"

  "Is the steamed bun enough? Is the meat filling enough?" Niu's two eyes lit up like bright lamps, and saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth. His stomach started growling loudly.

  "Just listen to me!"

  "Hehehe! As long as I'm full and have some meat, even if it's to sneak a peek at Widow Zhang's big butt from the west, I won't bat an eyelid!" Niu Chai guaranteed with a silly smile.

  Yun Zhongzi smiled, and Hu Zhong and Hu Yong laughed.

  "Hu Zhong, take Niu Kui back to the manor first and feed him well!" Yun Zhongzi instructed, then led Hu Yong towards the other side of the manor gate, the Yun family's armory.

  In the shop, knives, guns, swords and halberds were displayed, with cold light flashing and chilly air whizzing.

  "These are all inferior goods!" Yun Zhongzi took a glance and shook his head. In his eyes, not to mention these fine steel instruments, even spiritual treasures might not be taken seriously by him.

  Yun Zhongzi didn't waste any words either, took out the token from the mansion and headed straight for the backyard.

  The backyard is used for casting weapons.

  Pushing open the door, a wave of heat rushed in, accompanied by the sound of hammering, as if I had entered another world.

  "Lu Jiang Shi, Young Master Yun Zhong Zi has arrived!" The store clerk of the weapon shop hastily announced.

  "Oh! So it's young master, haha, I'm actually a good friend of your father's. Speaking of which, you should call me Uncle Lu!"

  Luojun, a sturdy man with a robust build, had brown hair that curled and fell on his shoulders. He had a lion nose and wide mouth, with a sparse beard covering his face. His chest was exposed, covered in thick black hair. His two arms were muscular, like iron knots. He laughed loudly several times before arriving in front of Yun Zhongzi.

  "Uncle Lu!" Yun Zhongzi followed local customs and called out, but in his heart he thought: Barbarian!

  Lu Jiangshi nodded in satisfaction and said seriously, "The temperature here is extremely high. You're too young, I'm afraid you can't take it. Come on, I'll take you to my resting place!" After that, he pulled Yun Zhongzi's arm and walked towards another door.

  However, to Lu Jiang's surprise, he pulled twice but couldn't budge it.

  "What a great effort!" Lu Jiang's eyes lit up, and he began to exert some force, but unfortunately, Yun Zhongzi still didn't budge.

  Hiss...

  Lu Jiangshi sucked in a breath of cool air, his gaze at Yun Zhongzi changed, he made a living by forging iron, how strong was his strength, yet he couldn't even handle a few-year-old child.

  "Uncle Lu, it's alright. I want to take a look at the environment here and also the various ores!" Yun Zhongzi casually brushed aside Lu Jiangshi's arm and smiled faintly.

  "He's born with divine power, what a terrifying strength!" Lu Jiang was shocked. He originally had the strength of a martial artist, but he couldn't sense the depth of his opponent's power at all.

  "Good, good! Brother Beihu is indeed blessed to have such a wonderful son!" Master Lu praised several times and no longer dared to underestimate him. "Alright then, I'll take you on a tour around!"

  "Neutron, here apart from me being the master craftsman, there are eight other craftsmen, controlling eight furnaces, forging some fine steel instruments. And then there are some apprentices, doing some miscellaneous tasks like screening minerals!" Lu Master Craftsman began to introduce the situation here. "Unfortunately, our skills are limited, we can't forge Xuan Tie instruments, and can only barely maintain the business. In the backyard, various purchased minerals are stored. Those things need to be purified before they can be used."

  Blacksmith, also known as a casting master, is divided into several levels according to different levels.

  First, it's an apprentice, doing some miscellaneous tasks, screening minerals, adding auxiliary materials, etc. Then comes the craftsman, who can independently forge fine ironware and has a certain status. Next is the master craftsman, who can forge hundred-refined ironware. In addition to these, there are also senior master craftsmen, ironwork sect masters, and divine craftsmen.

  The foundry master also has another large branch, namely the alchemist, who uses magic to draw magical arrays and refine magical items, which is a higher level that ordinary people cannot touch, and will not be described in detail for the time being.

  Yun Zhongzi walked around the circle, in each separate room, there was a stove burning smokeless charcoal, a craftsman, equipped with two apprentices, concentrating on forging weapons.

  Yun Zhongzi didn't want to waste any more time and said: "Uncle Lu, take me to the storage room and let's have a look!"

  Lu Jiangshi was a bit strange, but still nodded and said, "Alright, I'll take you there!"

  The storage room is very large, with piles of minerals already sorted out and randomly placed on the ground.

  Yun Zhongzi's eyes scanned the area, his eyebrows raised slightly, revealing a hint of excitement. He walked straight to a corner where there was a black mineral stone about two fists in size, picked it up and said, "It's indeed Tianxing Stone! This is an excellent material for refining storage devices and law instruments that can change size at will!"

  Tianxing Stone, Xumi Stone, Jie Stone, Xu Kong Stone and so on all contain spatial properties, which are extremely rare materials.

  "This piece of ore is quite strange, it's very light in texture yet extremely hard. I couldn't tell what material it was made of, so I just left it there. Do you know what it is?" Lu Jiangshi asked subconsciously upon seeing the bright light in Yun Zhongzi's eyes.

  Yun Zhongzi nodded, "This is a Tianxing stone, extremely precious, it's one of the fallen meteorites from the starry sky, thousands of times more valuable than Xuan Tie!"

  "Tianxing Stone? Never heard of it!" Lu Jiangshi thought for a moment, shaking his head in doubt, "More precious than Xuan Iron by a thousand times? Impossible!"

  Yun Zhongzi smiled and didn't explain.

  "There's also Xuan Iron and Ink Jade Stone, with this piece of Tianxing Stone, we can get started!" Yun Zhongzi thought to himself, and then handed the selected ores to Hu Yong.

  "Uncle Lu, I'd like to use one of the stoves here. Can you recommend one?" Yun Zhongzi said.

  "Use the furnace?" Lu Jiangshi suddenly shouted, "Zhongzi, you won't think of making it yourself, will you? How about this, whatever you want, tell your uncle and I'll make it for you, guaranteed to satisfy you!"

  Yun Zhongzi smiled mysteriously and said, "Uncle Lu, wait and see later. If I'm no good, you can take action, okay?"

  "Alright!" Lu Jiangshi no longer insisted, he also wanted to see what other magical places this young master had.
