Chapter 332: A Killing Trap
Chen Qing returned to the courtyard as night had fallen deep.
He had just been about to bathe and rest when Baizhi softly reported, "Senior Brother, regarding the matter of forging a weapon, I've already used my family's connections to contact Deputy Hall Master Lang Shanghai of the Forging Weapons Hall two days ago. He's replied saying that if you have time tomorrow morning, he can come visit you."
Upon hearing this, a glimmer of interest flashed in Chen Qing's eyes.
The Forging Weapons Hall was Yan Kingdom's foremost forging force. The hall was full of masters, and to have a deputy hall master personally come to visit showed that his current reputation as third-ranked True Disciple was quite useful.
He nodded, "In that case, I'll meet this Master Lang tomorrow."
"Yes, Senior Brother."
Baizhi acknowledged, then went to prepare hot water for Chen Qing's bath and arrange his rest.
The next morning, the sunlight was warm and gentle. The accumulated snow in the courtyard had mostly melted, revealing damp bluestone slabs.
An elder wearing a brown short jacket with graying hair but a vigorous spirit, led by Baizhi, stepped into the small courtyard at True Martial Peak.
