Chapter 161



"Yes, in two days, Master Ma and the young master will hold an apprenticeship ceremony. Master Ma is skilled in both swords and knives, and a sword, being the gentleman among weapons, is a perfect gift," Lu Qing replied.

Creating the Thousand-Folded Sword Embryo was a pleasant surprise for Lu Qing. He had been pondering what gift to present at Master Ma\'s apprenticeship ceremony in a few days, and this had solved his dilemma. As for the Hundred-Fold Sword Embryo, he left it at the Heartforge Workshop as payment for using their forge.

"Young Master Lu, your gift is indeed substantial. A Thousand-Folded Sword is priceless, and even in the state capital, it\'s a rare sight that countless sword enthusiasts covet," Wei Dazongguan said with a smile.

A sword of the Thousand-Folded level is a true treasure, able to slice through iron like mud and cut hair with a breeze. Such a sword is rare even in a family as affluent as the Wei\'s. That Lu Qing could so casually give it away left Wei Dazongguan in awe. Especially knowing that Lu Qing forged it in just a couple of hours, his amazement deepened.

Before accompanying Lu Qing to the Heartforge Workshop, he had never imagined that Lu Qing possessed such mastery in forging, able to effortlessly create weapons of such caliber. This level of skill was on par with renowned forging masters. A young forging master, combined with his formidable martial prowess, made Wei Dazongguan realize that the more he interacted with Lu Qing, the more he couldn\'t fathom the depths of the young man\'s abilities. Every skill was astonishing and exceptionally advanced.

Lu Qing, unaware of Wei Dazongguan\'s inner thoughts, was quite satisfied with the results of his visit to the Heartforge Workshop. Being able to forge a Thousand-Folded Sword Embryo from ordinary iron indicated that his forging skills had truly reached a masterful level. Once the Wei family gathered the necessary materials, he could begin crafting his own war knife.

Upon returning to the Wei residence, Wei Dazongguan hurried to report to Wei Xinghe. The revelation that Lu Qing possessed forging skills comparable to a master was significant news. Wei Xinghe was equally shocked but did not make it public. Instead, he elevated Lu Qing\'s importance in his mind and instructed his subordinates to expedite the search for the materials Lu Qing required.

In the following days, Lu Qing stayed at the Wei residence, practicing and reading. He had already asked the Wei family to send word to Grandpa Zhang and others in Jiuli Village, informing them that he would be staying in the county for a while, so he wasn\'t in a hurry to return.

Two days later, on the eve of the apprenticeship ceremony, the Heartforge Workshop delivered the Thousand-Folded Sword to the Wei residence. The delivery was made by Master Lin himself, who respectfully presented a beautifully decorated wooden box to Lu Qing.

"Lu Xiaolangjun, please check if this sword meets your requirements," Master Lin said, handing the box to Lu Qing. The respect he showed even amazed Wei Xinghe, who was present. Master Lin, known for his high craftsmanship and pride, was now so humble before Lu Qing, clearly impressed by the young man.

Lu Qing opened the box, revealing the long sword inside. He took it out and flicked it with his finger, causing the blade to unsheathe with a flash of cold light, instantly filling the room with a sharp aura. The sword\'s edge was snow-white, and the blade was adorned with intricate patterns, making it exceptionally beautiful.

Lu Qing pulled a hair from his head and tossed it into the air, then flicked his wrist. In an instant, the space in front of him was filled with flashes of light and sword shadows, as he executed a flurry of strikes. This sudden display of swordsmanship left everyone present in awe, even causing Wei Xinghe\'s eyes to twitch. He realized that even he would have difficulty defending against Lu Qing\'s swift sword.

When Lu Qing sheathed the sword, he looked at the hair on the ground, now cut into countless segments, and nodded in satisfaction. The sword\'s sharpness was evident as it easily sliced through the hair in mid-air.

"This sword is excellent. Thank you, Master Lin," Lu Qing said.

Master Lin, still awed by Lu Qing\'s swordsmanship, replied hurriedly, "Young Master Lu, it\'s an honor for us to be involved in creating such a treasure. It\'s us who should thank you."

Recalling how his friend, Old Wang, had been astonished by the sword during a visit, Master Lin felt immensely pleased and proud.

After Master Lin left, Lu Qing placed the sword back in the box and handed it to Wei Dazongguan, asking him to add it to the gift list for the next day.

Meanwhile, throughout the county, various factions were preparing for the apprenticeship ceremony at the Wei residence. With the Wei family sending out invitations, the news that the young master of the Wei family would be apprenticed to Mago of the Ma family had spread throughout the city. Initially, there was confusion about who Mago was, with some speculating he was one of the mysterious figures from the city gate incident. However, upon investigation, it was discovered that Mago was a lesser-known member of the Ma family with only Tendons and Bones Realm cultivation.

The revelation that the Wei family would have their young master apprentice under someone with such modest cultivation shocked the city\'s factions. They began to wonder if Mago had some extraordinary qualities or if he, like the mysterious youth from before, possessed strength far beyond his realm.

As curiosity grew, factions prepared their gifts and eagerly awaited the ceremony. The entire county was abuzz with anticipation.

Amid this atmosphere, in the afternoon, a noisy procession of carriages and horses entered the city, heading towards the Wei residence. Simultaneously, Wei Dazongguan received the news and joyfully rushed to the estate.

"Master, the young master has returned!"
