Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Originally, Long Sixuan only needed to pay 5 million liang of gold. But now, Xue Long extorted another 1 million liang of gold from him. One could imagine how gloomy Long Sixuan looked.
Fortunately, Long Sixuan got what he wanted.
Long Sixuan had a good eye as the member of the Long Family and the son of the family head.
The jade fan was elaborately made. It was all emerald green and as small as a palm. There were also jade tassels attached to the fantail.
Long Sixuan looked at the fan and examined it with his spiritual energy.
He found that the fan was a spiritual artifact that could manipulate the wind power. It could also turn into a flying machine. As long as one injected a certain amount of spiritual energy, it could turn into an object as big as a carpet and hold 5 or 6 people at a time.
Normally, similar earth grade spiritual artifacts could only be in the low or mid level. The amazing part about the fan was that it was high-quality and contained no impurities.
If the fan was used to fly, the speed was twice as fast as that of ordinary earth grade flying machines. So it was a precious flying object.
A rough calculation showed that it was worth paying 1 million liang of gold for the fan. It was more than enough to participate in the preliminaries of the World’s Top Weapon-Maker.
Long Sixuan felt happy when there came a weak groan from inside the room.
He looked at the inner part of the room with disgust.
It turned out that a spacious room was divided into inner and outer parts. The inner part used to be the bedroom of Long Huai, head of the Long Family.
Long Sixuan walked into the inner part and there was a stiff and pallid old man lying in bed.
There was a smell of urine coming from the man’s body. Obviously, he suffered from gatism and could not live independently now.
This man was no other than the head of the Long Family Long Huai.
After knowing about the evil ambition of his fourth son Long Sixuan, Long Huai was on guard against Long Sixuan and secretly sent away Long Baobao.
No one would expect that the brute Long Sixuan was so resentful after hearing the news of Long Baobao’s fleeing that he used poison to render Long Huai corpselike.
Long Huai could not move his limbs and only relied on the pills offered by servers to live on painfully.
“Old creature, you might feel bored with lying all the time. How about showing you several interesting things?” Long Sixuan laughed ruthlessly.
He had no love for his own father.
He was narrow-minded and overweeningly ambitious. He had coveted the position as head of the family ever since he was young. Obviously, Long Sixuan was more talented than his elder brother Long Sihai. But Long Huai taught all his unmatched weapon-making skills to Long Sihai with the excuse that the heir of the Long Family was always the eldest son.
Long Sixuan waited painfully until Long Sihai died. ‘Now, the old creature can pass the position as the family head to me, right?’
Unexpectedly, Long Huai took a fancy to Long Baobao this time.
Long Sixuan’s hopes were shattered over and over again and he hated Long Baobao to the core. Only then did he think about poisoning his birth father and biological nephew.
Long Sixuan took out the box with the head and carried the head brutally.
“Old creature, do you see this? This is your beloved grandson you have been missing so much.”
Seeing the child’s head with closed eyes that had already lost its color, Long Huai could not help moaning. He opened his mouth with difficulty.
“Long Sixuan, you brute! How can you do this to such a young kid?”
Long Huai regretted deeply. If he had foreseen that Long Sixuan could be so brutal, he should have killed the brute when Steward Huang reminded him to take cautions against Long Sixuan.
“Baobao, it is me that inflicted the suffering on you.”
Long Huai would rather die than live on. Long Baobao was his only hope after he was poisoned. But now, even his most beloved grandson had died. He was in despair.
Long Huai made a desperate effort to bite off his tongue. Unexpectedly, Long Sixuan was well-prepared and seized Long Huai’s chin right at this time.
“Old creature, you want to die? It is not that easy. Let me tell you. You mustn’t die before I win the first place in the World’s Top Weapon-Maker. You can rest assured. I know that you feel bored with staying all alone. So I will take good care of Long Baobao’s head and put it beside your pillow. In this case, it can accompany you all the time.” Long Sixuan’s laugh was so scary.
“Brute, stop your wishful thinking. You are certainly not able to win the first place in the competition. Stop daydreaming.” Long Huai could not even die. His old eyes were full of blood streaks.
“Old creature, you are always looking down on me and feeling that Long Sihai and Long Baobao are more talented than me. Pitifully, those two talented creatures turned out to be no-brainers. Eventually, they were both killed by me. Look, do you find the spiritual artifact in my hand quite familiar? Wasn’t it made by your beloved grandson?”
Long Sixuan slowly took out the jade fan. He wanted the old creature to pay the price for favoring the unworthy guys these years. He wanted the old creature to feel every day that to live was no better than to die!
“What? You also killed your elder brother? You! You are truly inhumane!” Long Huai’s heart ached with anger and sorrow and he wanted to tear Long Sixuan into pieces.
But at this time, he clearly saw the jade fan in the hand of Long Sixuan.
Something flashed extremely quickly through the mind of the old family head.
This time, only Long Huai and Long Baobao himself participated in the making of Long Baobao’s spiritual artifact for the preliminaries of the World’s Top Weapon-Maker. The whole process of weapon-making was kept secret in order to ensure that Long Baobao would stand out in the competition.
Even Steward Huang and Long Sixuan only knew that the spiritual artifact made by Long Baobao was a fan. They did not know about the specific grade and fan type.
How come it was a jade fan made of colored glaze?
There was no doubt that this fan was also a precious high-level earth grade item. But its practicability and quality obviously could not match those of the spiritual artifact made by Long Baobao. The old family head remembered this clearly.
Long Huai was doubtful for a moment. Very soon, he turned joyful.
Long Baobao had said that he would surely take good care of the spiritual artifact as long as he was still alive. The fan would always stay with Long Baobao until he died.
The original fan had been changed by someone. That person even presented a high-level earth grade spiritual artifact of similar quality in order to deceive Long Sixuan and hide the truth.
On second thought, the old family head Long Huai did not take a careful look at the kid’s head just now due to his excessive shock. When seeing the head, Long Huai was extremely angry but not that sorrowful.
If the head really came from his grandson, why did not he feel extremely sorrowful?
Baobao was not dead!
The old family head had truly seen all kinds of trials and tribulations. Just in an instant, he extremely nicely covered the change from rage to rejoicing.
Long Sixuan did not notice at all that there was something wrong with the head and spiritual artifact.
“Long Sixuan, you will die in your boots.” Long Huai closed his eyes and concealed the joy inside. Then he whispered his curse in a seemingly resentful manner.
“Old creature, then wait for the day.” Long Sixuan laughed out aloud and strode away.
