The door that had been closed for more than a month finally opened again.
After hearing the noise, Big Boss Chou and Lil’ Red quickly ran over. When they saw Ou Yangming’s appearance, they had strange looks on their faces.
‘Lil’ Ming, what happened to you?’ Lil’ Red transmitted his voice.
Big Boss Chou also walked over quickly and asked worriedly, “Sir Ou, are you alright?”
Ou Yangming looked terrible. His hair was messy, and his mental power was barely visible. He looked very weak. His eyes were bloodshot as if he had fought tens of thousands of rounds with an enemy.
As Big Boss Chou spoke, he glanced at the secret room behind Ou Yangming. It was a mess there, and all kinds of broken materials were scattered on the ground.
Big Boss Chou did not say it, but he guessed that Ou Yangming must have failed. He said helplessly, “Sir Ou, I told you before that a flying boat… Isn’t easy to be refined. Very few blacksmith masters can do it, but you didn’t believe me.”
A month ago, when they heard that Ou Yangming wanted to refine a flying boat himself, Big Boss Chou and the others thought that he was crazy.
Ou Yangming had been buying materials and blueprints from the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce. They knew that he definitely wanted to get a better flying boat, but they never thought that he would refine it himself.
What kind of joke was that?
‘Sir Ou’s so young but has comprehended the laws. He’s already a genius. How could he still know how to smith? Even if he knew how to smith a little, he’s still far from refining a flying boat.
‘There were only 2 or 3 people in the entire Beishan City, including the nearby sects, who can refine flying boats, after all.’
“Who said I failed?” Ou Yangming tidied his hair.
Lil’ Red landed on Ou Yangming’s shoulder and chirped in his ear. It really looked like a red sparrow.
“Did you succeed, Sir Ou?” Big Boss Chou asked in disbelief. His brothers beside him were also curious.
Ou Yangming had been in closed-door cultivation for a month, so they wanted to see what he had come up with.
“Today, I’ll open your eyes to something new!”
Ou Yangming took out the last flying boat he had refined. The palm-sized boat looked extremely ugly, especially the green light that appeared after the Lighting Ore was used on the boat. It made people speechless.
After seeing the flying boat, Big Boss Chou and the others held back their laughter. This was the first time they had seen such a flying boat.
They felt that it was a pity for those good materials.
“Do you think my flying boat isn’t good enough?” Ou Yangming smiled and asked.
Big Boss Chou could not attack Ou Yangming. After all, this was the young fellow’s first time refining. The bald man used his mental power to check the flying boat but found that there was no reaction. This flying boat probably had not even reached the lowest level of a magic tool.
Shaking his head helplessly, Big Boss Chou said, “It’s your first time forging, sir. It already looks like one. If you work harder in the future, you’ll surely be able to forge a better flying boat.”
Big Boss Chou was very tactful. Ou Yangming’s strength was clear to see, and he was their savior, hence they showed him some face.
Lil’ Red was more direct. He directly said through a voice transmission, ‘Lil’ Ming, this is the ugliest flying boat I’ve ever seen.’
He said what Big Boss Chou and the others did not dare to say.
“Whether it’s a white cat or a black cat, if it can catch a rat, it’s a good cat.” Ou Yangming did not mind at all. He smiled and said, “My flying boat may not look good, but its speed is absolutely first-class. Besides, it’s sturdier than other flying boats.”
The few men did not believe it at all. Lil’ Red also rolled his eyes. Ou Yangming was a blacksmith master, but the little red bird knew this was his first time refining a flying boat.
It was already very impressive that he succeeded during his first time. If he wanted to surpass other flying boats, would he not be dreaming?
Ou Yangming guessed their thoughts but he had refined the flying boat with great difficulty. How could he let it be looked down upon by others?
Absolutely not!
Ou Yangming said in a deep voice, “You’re really lucky today. Let me show you the flying boat that I refined.”
Big Boss Chou and the others held back their laughter and thought to themselves, ‘It’s still a problem whether or not it can be enlarged.’
Of course, it could still be enlarged.
Ou Yangming tapped the flying boat that was glowing with green light, and it immediately became much larger. It was about 3 meters long and 2 meters wide.
Its size had increased, but its appearance had not changed at all. After it was enlarged, it looked even uglier.
“It can be enlarged!”
Big Boss Chou said in surprise. He and his brothers had thought that this flying boat was just a model, so they did not expect that its size could be changed.
It had become bigger, but it was still much smaller compared to his flying boat. Ou Yangming gave a command.
The flying boat moved in the air. Since flying was not allowed in Beishan City, the flying boat could only move around the courtyard.
Nothing much could be shown, but the flying boat’s speed was clear to see. It looked like it was moving at lightning speed.
Big Boss Chou and the others were shocked. This boat that they thought was only a model really had the basic functions of a flying boat.
“Sir Ou, what’s the equivalent rank of this flying boat?”
Big Boss Chou asked nervously. Why could he not tell the equivalent rank of this flying boat earlier?
Ou Yangming made the flying boat in the sky stop and turned it back into the size of a palm. He then kept it in his pocket.
With a bitter smile, Ou Yangming responded helplessly, “I actually don’t know. When I was refining it, an accident seemed to have happened.”
A magic treasure without an equivalent rank was odd. Lil’ Red’s sharp little eyes stared at the flying boat with a baffled look.
After staying here for more than a month, the flying boat had been refined. Ou Yangming also planned to leave Beishan City.
His target was the Mystic Sky Sect. The sooner he went there, the earlier he could make plans.
Ou Yangming took out a flying boat from his Long Feather Band and threw it to Big Boss Chou. “I’ve disturbed you a lot during this period. This flying boat was also refined by me. Take it as a reward for you.”
In the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce, Big Boss Chou had let him earn a lot of spirit coins. Furthermore, Ou Yangming had secluded himself in someone else’s place for more than a month, hence he was quite grateful. This Good Grade flying boat was a failed product of his refinement, but it was certainly precious in the outside world.
“Sir Ou, are you planning to leave?” Big Boss Chou understood what Ou Yangming meant.
“Yes.” Ou Yangming nodded and said, “You don’t have to send me off.”
After saying that, Ou Yangming walked out of the main door.
Big Boss Chou and the others still sent him out of the main door. Looking at Ou Yangming’s disappearing figure, they were filled with emotions.
The second brother later retracted his gaze and took a look at the flying boat, wanting to see what Sir Ou had given them. He used his mental power to check it once, and his face was filled with shock.
“Big Brother…” The second brother looked at the flying boat in Big Boss Chou’s hand with shock, unable to speak.
“What’s wrong with this flying boat?”
The second brother’s gaze swept across the flying boat. This flying boat was also refined by Ou Yangming, and it looked very good, almost no different from the ones in the outside world.
“Was this really refined by SIr Ou?” Big Boss Chou was a little puzzled. ‘If this was refined by Sir Ou, why did he make that strange thing?’
He released his mental power, and his eyes were also filled with shock.
“This is… This is a Good Grade flying boat!”
Big Boss Chou’s voice was filled with disbelief. How could this be a Good Grade flying boat?
The other brothers also hurriedly probed. After a while, the 7 of them stood foolishly on the street, desolate in the cold wind.
Big Boss Chou turned around. By the time he looked again, Ou Yangming had disappeared.
His face was filled with disbelief. After a while, he suddenly understood. “No wonder, no wonder…”
“Boss, what’s wrong?”
A few brothers beside him asked.
Big Boss Chou took a deep breath and explained, “We were all wrong. Not only is Sir Ou a supreme powerhouse of the laws, but he’s also a top-notch blacksmith in the Great Wide World.”
“How’s that possible? Master Ou’s still so young. He doesn’t even seem to be more than 100 years old!”
It was a miracle that Ou Yangming could defeat the Horned Dragon King in such a short time. He could be considered a top-tier God-favored one in the Great Wide World.
If he were to be a blacksmith master as well, that would be too terrifying.
Big Boss Chou sighed and asked, “Have you forgotten the equivalent ranks of the magic weapons that Sir Ou sold? To us, they’re items that could be discovered but not sought. If we obtained them, we would’ve regarded them as treasures. How could we possibly sell them?”
“Indeed. If I had a High Grade magic weapon, I would even laugh in my dreams. As for a Fine Grade magic weapon, I wouldn’t think about it because it’s completely impossible,” the second brother said in a deep voice.
Big Boss Chou continued, “Now, recall the situation when Sir Ou took out those magic weapons. He didn’t look pained at all. A Fine Grade magic weapon! Even a main city’s governor wouldn’t sell one so easily, but Sir Ou didn’t seem to care at all. There’s only one possibility. Sir Ou must be a top-tier smithing master in the first place, which is why he doesn’t lack magic weapons. That must be why he wouldn’t understand the importance of magic weapons to cultivators like us.”
The bald man raised the Good Grade flying boat in his hand and said excitedly, “This flying boat is the best explanation. If this were to be auctioned, it’d be worth at least a million high-grade spirit coins. Sir Ou’s short of money, so how could he give us something he bought at a high price? He must’ve refined it when he was in seclusion.”
Everyone understood after Big Boss Chou explained, and they were deeply shocked. The supreme powerhouse who defeated the Horned Dragon King in the starry sky was actually a great smithing master as well. How terrifying was this?
“Sir Ou’s really too amazing.”
“I’m in admiration, I’m in admiration.”
The Chou family’s brothers were originally arrogant. That said, Ou Yangming’s appearance made them understand that there was always someone better out there.
“Sir’ Ou’s age… He’s…”
“If a genius can be measured like an ordinary person, he wouldn’t be a genius at all. Sir Ou’s certainly a genius among geniuses.”
Big Boss Chou’s gaze was fiery as he looked ahead.
