Chapter 287: The Frustration of Old Man Men

The subsequent story is the same as the original drama; Long Po holds the Shenlong Sword and curses at the Spirit Mirror.

Under Long Po's desperate pleas, the Spirit Mirror agrees to her wish of a life-for-a-life exchange, using Long Po's life to awaken Tong Bo.

At this moment, the bewildered Tong Bo, just as he is about to step onto the path to the Yellow Springs, is intercepted by the suddenly appearing Long Po.

Long Po smiles at Tong Bo and says:

"Bo, Grandma will not be able to see you get married and have children anymore.

This is the last thing Grandma can do for you. Take care of yourself; Grandma cannot look after you anymore from now on."

Amidst a burst of lightning and thunder, Tong Bo suddenly opens his eyes.

Then, everything proceeds according to the original drama, and Tong Zhan learns the truth of Tong Bo's resurrection through the Spirit Mirror.

As for Duan Fengyun, he had already returned home at a terrifying speed and was silently waiting for Men Laotou and the others to return.

Once his Spirit Sense sensed that Men Laotou and the others had returned, he carried the Hundred Year Bamboo Leaf Green he had prepared long ago and went to the Men Family Sword Casting Workshop.

Duan Fengyun stands outside the Men Family Sword Casting Workshop, pretending that he had knocked on the door for a long time without receiving a response, and is now looking dejected and preparing to head home.

Men Laotou, who had returned with the black wood, looks at Duan Fengyun walking back from his own workshop and asks suspiciously:

"Boss Qin, what are you doing here?"

Duan Fengyun replies:

"I had nothing to do after dinner, so I came to find you, Master Men, to have a drink and chat.

Look, I've even prepared the wine!"

Duan Fengyun brings out two jars of Hundred Year Bamboo Leaf Green and shakes them in front of Men Laotou.

Subsequently, Duan Fengyun pretends to have discovered a new world and exclaims:

"Master Men, what is that black thing you have there?

Why do I feel a monstrous aura coming from this piece of black wood?"

Men Laotou thinks for a moment, feeling that there is no harm in telling Duan Fengyun about this Zhurong Divine Wood, and says:

"Boss Qin, I won't hide it from you; this black wood is the legendary Zhurong Divine Wood.

This divine wood was discovered by Jianqiu under Hell Valley, and to avoid any complications, the three of us brought it back overnight.

We are preparing to use this Zhurong Divine Wood later to forge my ancestral divine iron and create a peerless divine weapon."

After hearing this, Duan Fengyun pretends to be shocked on the surface and says:

"I didn't expect that Jianqiu not only saved the people of Yujian Villa under Hell Valley but also found a divine object like the Zhurong Divine Wood.

Truly, good people are rewarded.

Master Men, it is said that when a divine weapon is born, it is always accompanied by strange phenomena.

I have never witnessed the forging of a divine weapon in my entire life; I wonder if I could stay at the Men Family Sword Casting Workshop to watch.

If Master Men needs to keep it confidential, just say the word, and I will leave."

Men Laotou laughs:

"Boss Qin, you are joking.

I was already planning to have you come watch the sword, Boss Qin. Once this divine weapon appears in the world, I will definitely let you test the sword first."

Men Laotou's initial thought was to have Dazhu go to Duan Fengyun's house to call him over; after all, only by seeing the birth of this sword would Duan Fengyun know its extraordinariness.

Only in this way could this sword be sold for a good price to Duan Fengyun.

Therefore, even if Duan Fengyun hadn't come, Men Laotou would have sent someone to call him.

However, Duan Fengyun's uninvited arrival made Men Laotou very happy.

Because Duan Fengyun brings him two jars of Hundred Year Bamboo Leaf Green every time he comes, which makes him look forward to Duan Fengyun's visits every time.

Without further ado, to avoid any complications, Men Laotou takes down the black wood and invites Duan Fengyun into the Sword Furnace.

Men Jianqiu and Dazhu skillfully pull the furnace bellows, preparing to get the fire burning at its hottest.

Meanwhile, Men Laotou goes to his room to retrieve the Millennium Cold Iron. Tonight, for Men Laotou, is the day he becomes a master sword smith and makes a name for himself, so he is exceptionally full of spirit and motivation.

Duan Fengyun silently watches the black wood and laughs inwardly:

"Once you throw this piece of black wood into the fire and release Yin Zhong, let's see if you can still be happy then."

At this moment, Duan Fengyun suddenly realizes a problem:

"Yin Zhong is Yueya's father, my father-in-law.

Jianqiu is Yueya's stepmother, and Men Laotou is Jianqiu's father; wouldn't that make Men Laotou my grandfather's generation?"

Duan Fengyun shakes his head; everyone has their own standing, and calling Yin Zhong 'father' and Men Laotou 'grandfather' is something he would never do even if it killed him.

Duan Fengyun only hopes now that Yueya does not recall the past, so he won't fall into an awkward situation of acknowledging relatives.

The furnace fire is now burning fiercely thanks to the efforts of Men Jianqiu and Dazhu, and Men Laotou has finally retrieved the Millennium Cold Iron.

Last time, after Men Laotou took out the Millennium Cold Iron, he changed its hiding place just in case, so it took a bit longer this time.

Looking at the raging fire, Men Laotou excitedly throws the Millennium Cold Iron into the furnace.

Then, he picks up the black wood from the ground and tosses it into the Sword Casting Furnace as well.

Watching the furnace fire become even more ferocious due to the addition of the black wood, Men Laotou laughs heartily; he can already see himself holding the divine weapon.

Men Laotou says:

"Both the Zhurong Divine Wood and the Millennium Cold Iron are extremely difficult to melt. Boss Qin, we can go out and have a few drinks first while they burn in the fire.

Once the Zhurong Divine Wood ignites, the Millennium Cold Iron will be able to melt, and then this old man will go and forge it."

Since Men Laotou has spoken, how could Duan Fengyun not comply?

Men Laotou sets up a table outside the Sword Casting Furnace, puts some spiced beef and peanuts on it, and the four of them drink while waiting for the changes in the furnace.

Duan Fengyun, Men Laotou, and Dazhu drink happily, while Men Jianqiu glances at the Sword Casting Furnace from time to time.

Men Laotou raises his wine cup, his face flushed, and says:

"Jianqiu, no need to stare at the Sword Furnace; it won't grow legs and run out."

When Duan Fengyun heard this, he was overjoyed in his heart.

Won't grow legs and run out?

Then when you see the Zhurong Divine Wood you've been looking forward to for so long turn into a naked man in a moment, let's see if you can still be so calm.

And Heaven seemed to have an objection to Men Laotou's words, as lightning and thunder flashed continuously in the sky.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck directly into Men Laotou's Sword Furnace.

Because of this bolt of lightning, all the weapons inside the Sword Furnace fell to the ground, and the room where the Sword Furnace was located also collapsed with a boom.

Men Laotou, who had been holding a wine cup with a smile on his face, instantly let his face fall and roared:

"What are you still standing there for!

Hurry and go see how the Zhurong Divine Wood and Millennium Cold Iron are doing!"

Duan Fengyun took the lead and rushed up, with Men Jianqiu following closely behind.

After the two of them threw the collapsed door pillars aside, they walked into the Sword Furnace.

At this moment, the fire inside the Sword Furnace had long since extinguished, the Millennium Cold Iron remained in its original state, but the Zhurong Divine Wood had already disappeared.

Men Laotou rushed in, looked at the vanished Zhurong Divine Wood, and stumbled as he said:

"Why couldn't even the Zhurong Divine Wood melt this piece of Millennium Cold Iron? Why is it like this!"

Duan Fengyun's attention at this moment was entirely focused on a mound of earth beside the Sword Furnace.

In this mound of earth, Duan Fengyun felt a powerful heart reviving.

Only a clanging sound was heard, and a completely naked man stood up from the mound of earth.

The man was none other than the reborn Demon God Yin Zhong; having received Tong Bo's kindness, he should now be called Shan Yin Zhong.

After being forged by the Zhurong Fire, Yin Zhong had become a true Undying Demon God, so he now appeared in a rejuvenated state.

"Ah!"

Seeing the completely naked Yin Zhong, Men Jianqiu let out a loud scream.

"Ah, who are you!"

Men Laotou and Dazhu were also given a big fright by the suddenly appearing Yin Zhong.

To prevent his future father-in-law from being exposed, Duan Fengyun took off his coat and covered Yin Zhong's private parts!

After Yin Zhong smiled at the crowd, he fainted.

Seeing the fainted Yin Zhong, Men Laotou said with a depressed face:

"How unlucky.

Jianqiu, you saved a dead person during the day, and now an exhibitionist has come at night.

Has my Men family Sword Furnace been cursed by someone?

Hurry and carry this guy out; if he dies in my Sword Casting Workshop later, who can I go to for justice?"

Men Jianqiu disagreed, saying:

"Dad, he is different from the person during the day. Look, he still has breath, and his heartbeat is extremely strong, which shows he is normal.

We cannot stand by and watch someone die.

If you won't save him, then your daughter will!"

Without further ado, Men Jianqiu stepped forward to help Yin Zhong into the room.

But how could Men Jianqiu alone lift Yin Zhong, whose muscles were as if made of refined steel?

Duan Fengyun spoke up:

"Master Men, Jianqiu is right; saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda.

This man clearly isn't a bad person at first glance, so you should save him first.

If anyone comes to cause you trouble, I will help you handle it."

"But...

But...

Sigh, since you, Boss Qin, have said so, it wouldn't be very moral for this old man to stand by and watch him die.

Fine, fine, this old man will save him, but once he wakes up, make him leave quickly."

Duan Fengyun thought to himself:

"Leave?

When the time comes, you'll know what it means when it's easy to invite a god but hard to send one away.

Not only will you have to save him, but you'll also lose your precious daughter."

With the four of them working together, Yin Zhong was successfully carried back to the guest room.

At this moment, Men Jianqiu's face was flushed red, and her heart was pounding like a deer.

When she had just touched Yin Zhong's body, it was as if she had been electrocuted; she had never had this feeling before.

She did not know that this was what is called love at first sight, only thinking it was her admiration for Yin Zhong's steel-like body.

Looking at the flushed Men Jianqiu, Men Laotou asked:

"Daughter, what's wrong with you?

Are you feeling unwell somewhere!"

Men Jianqiu shook her head and said:

"No, Dad.

It might be because the Sword Furnace was too stuffy just now.

I'll be fine after I get some air."

Seeing Yin Zhong reappear in the Human Realm, it was time for Duan Fengyun to go home.

"Master Men, I will be heading back first; if there is anything, just come to my house to find me.

I am leaving now."

Duan Fengyun strode away just like that, while Men Laotou still did not know what a hot potato Duan Fengyun had left him.
