Chapter Eighty-Seven: Taunt and Strength
If I reveal my master's identity, I won't be able to live."She only hoped that these half-truths could gloss over the matter."You made the crossbow that injured those men in my manor, didn't you" Fu...As expected of the current Left Minister, this man is as intelligent as the rumors say.
However, through a few simple actions, Yin Qi unexpectedly discovered that he was the one who truly represented the strength of Tiangji Pavilion. But to watch Tiangji Pavilion lose its reputation with his own eyes, he couldn't do it no matter what.
"Rest assured, Lord Yin, I am merely the young master's attendant. I only help him with minor tasks. Of course, completing this weapon forging task can only be done by my young master himself." This was already the limit of Yun Tianzi's concessions.
Yin Qi frowned, but didn't say anything. He simply returned to his own position.
In the middle of the enclosed pavilion, two young masters were each hunched over one side of a stone table, diligently working on something. The onlookers gathered to watch the spectacle, but as they saw these boys sitting motionless and engaged in seemingly tedious work, someone lit a bonfire. Surrounding the crackling flames, people started kicking stones to create a rhythmic beat and began dancing.
For a time, the atmosphere on site was quite lively.
Qin Luo'yan casually looked up and a knowing smile curved her lips. Looking at the people singing and dancing, she suddenly felt that in a lifetime, being able to live so happily was enough.
It's a pity that she met that person, and since then, her life has been filled with darkness. She hopes that one day she can break through this sky and tear open a crack in this dark world. Therefore, she cannot give up, even if she is struggling, she must continue to search for hope with Yingsheng by her side. She always believes that there will be a day when she and Yingsheng can live a peaceful life.
She didn't know that she was both envious and sorrowful, yet her smile under the sunshine made her beautiful. This beautiful scene fell into the eyes of someone who had a heart for it.
Yin Qi stared blankly at her like this. For a moment, he unconsciously followed the curve of her smile, but the next moment, his smile collapsed.
From the moment he knew she was a bed warmer for King Wuxuan, he knew there was no possibility between them. Even though he knew who she was long before she realized it, fate had played a cruel joke on him. Of all women, she had to be that man's.
Wuchi, who had been sitting in front of Fengyi Pavilion for a long time, was also stunned. He hadn't expected that a man could smile so beautifully. If he were a woman, it would be great. But he was obsessed. If she were a woman, how dare she challenge Tiangjigu and manufacture weapons After all, a good craftsman is a sought-after talent by many factions.
Two hours passed quickly, and when the incense finally burned to the end, with the last ember falling into the earth, Yin Qi stood up and loudly announced, "Time is up!"
Qin Luoyan stopped her movements, holding up what she had made. The onlookers once again focused their attention on Fengyitang. When they saw what was in her hand, almost everyone laughed.
"Did I see that right That's a gourd"
"What gourd That's clearly a ball."
"I said it wasn't, that thing looked like something my son had started making and then abandoned, half a slingshot."
"Oh, it seems this young master is doomed. That thing looks clearly broken! Could that possibly pierce a pear What a joke."
The murmurs from the crowd caused Wu Chi to furrow his brow, but seeing Qin Luoyan's composed and relaxed demeanor, he seemed to have everything under control. For some reason, he miraculously calmed down, as if he believed that even in such a disadvantageous situation, they would ultimately achieve an unexpected victory.
As for Yin Qi, he never doubted her ability from beginning to end.
Yun Tianqing was holding a miniature crossbow in his hand. The crossbow was completely black and seemed to be made of tungsten iron, which was even harder than iron. Its workmanship was also quite fine thanks to Yun Tianzi's help. It was truly worthy of being made by the people of Tiangong Pavilion. Even if they were incompetent, anything they made could amaze ordinary people.
In contrast, Qin Luoyan's weapon seemed to tremble in her hand, like a BB gun facing off against a cannon. At a glance, everyone could see the inevitable outcome.
"Are you all ready" Yin Qi asked.
Qin Luo Yan and Yun Tian Qing both nodded, Yun Tian Qing even had a proud look on his face.
Yin Qi took two pears and placed them on a branch of a plum tree in front of Feng Yi Ting. He then asked the onlookers to step back, and said, "Who will be the first to try the weapon"
"I'll do it!" Yun Tianqing stood up without hesitation. It was clear he wanted to intimidate Qin Luo Yan. He raised his crossbow and said, "This is the famous Black Force Crossbow of our Tiangong Pavilion. Within twenty zhang, even iron shields can be pierced with ease."
Saying that, she aimed her crossbow at the pear tree in the distance and gently pulled the trigger. An iron arrow flew out, hitting the pear tree without any suspense. It pierced through the pear tree and flew towards the distance, finally embedding itself forcefully into a plum tree.
Xueli rolled down from the branches and landed on the ground. In the quiet environment, this sound was like a horn before victory, instantly causing the onlookers to erupt in excitement.
"Well, like this, are you still going to take out that strange thing in your hand and humiliate yourself" Yun Tianqing looked up at Qin Luo'yan provocatively, "With your level, you dare to challenge our Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion Don't even think about it! You're not qualified!"
Qin Luoyan did not get angry, but instead slowly walked forward and asked Yin Qi: "Prime Minister, may I begin"
"Of course." Yin Qi made a gesture of invitation.
Qin Luoyan politely nodded, then picked up the object in her hand and said, "This little thing was made by me on a whim. I haven't thought of a proper name yet. I think I'll call it the Lihua Needle."
"Pear Flower Needle" The onlookers muttered the name, their laughter growing even more unrestrained. Such a delicate-sounding name seemed completely incongruous with a powerful weapon in the eyes of ordinary people.
Qin Luo'yan didn't intend to explain. Sometimes, you just need to prove it, what's there to explain
Amidst the jeers of the crowd, she calmly raised the small object in her hand and aimed it at another snow pear hanging from a branch. With a forceful throw, the seemingly spherical object flew towards the snow pear.
"Damn it, did I get this right Is this her weapon"
"Just throw it and hit the pear"
Everyone felt awkward. This simple and crude weapon, was it even worth making Just picking up a stone from the ground and throwing it would be more effective!
But, the crowd's laughter ceased abruptly when they saw that strange thing collide with Snow Pear's portrait.
