Even Selling the Hua Clan Wouldn't Cover the Compensation!
Faced with the question raised by Hua Xichen, the Hua Clan fell into a deathly silence...
The Nima Hua Clan celebrated for three days, with everyone weeping with joy...
Everyone was excitedly exclaiming that the day when the Hua Clan would rise above others had finally arrived, but the Hua Clan was also facing the calamity of extermination!
But now Hua Xichen is right...
Just kidding... does Chu Xinghe really not understand weapon crafting at all?
Many elders of the Hua Clan were stunned. Logically, shouldn't we, like the other three of the Four Great Clans, face the threat of annihilation and head straight to the Vast Heaven Holy Land?
Chu Xinghe took direct action, defying fate for our Hua Clan. From then on, our Hua Clan made huge profits and took off!
But now everyone's realized that Chu Xinghe doesn't seem to know anything about weapon crafting!
Given that Chu Xinghe has absolutely no knowledge of weapon crafting, can our Hua Clan solve their problems?
But while the elders of the Hua Clan were completely bewildered, it was the Clan Head Hua who truly understood the situation!
At this moment, Clan Head Hua slammed his fist on the table and exclaimed, "What the hell are you talking about here?"
What do you mean Chu Xinghe doesn't understand weapon crafting techniques?
Did Chu Xinghe know Puppetry Art before?
You're saying that Chu Xinghe solved the Puppetry Art crisis that plagued the Ming Clan back then, even though he clearly didn't understand Puppetry Art?
And then there's the issue of the Ning Clan. Does Chu Xinghe understand the Art of Qimen Dunjia?
Regarding this question, the Hua Clan Elder said to the Clan Leader, "If you say that Chu Xinghe doesn't understand Puppetry Art, we won't say a word. But if you say that Chu Xinghe doesn't understand Art of Qimen Dunjia, then all the Qimen Dunjia masters will definitely disagree."
Do you know that the ballistics researched by Chu Xinghe has become the sixth gate in the Art of Qimen Dunjia, in addition to the five gates of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth? It is called Wondrous Gate!
I've heard that the Ning Clan now has a fully-fledged musketeer corps!
You have to understand, the Ning Clan was so poor in the past that they couldn't even research a musket team if they wanted to.
But the Ning Clan these days is really making money hand over fist!
Furthermore, Gu Mingchao arranged for the Dunjia Fire Book to be given to the Ning Clan, Ning Clan's combat power increased dramatically after receiving the blessing of the Dunjia Fire Book.
And now the Ning Clan is not short of money!
In this situation, the Ning Clan, skilled in the Dunjia Heavenly Book, directly chose to cultivate the Gatling Art of Qimen Dunjia taught by Chu Xinghe!
The Hua Clan's Grand Elder stated that last month, when the medium-sized ruins in the north opened, the Ning Clan's musketeer team became famous overnight, truly sweeping through everything in their path!
Although the Gatling gun consumes a lot of energy, its power is even greater!
Chu Xinghe's Gatling gun Wondrous Gate Dao has now become the sixth gate of Qimen Dunjia!
Therefore, under these circumstances, you, Clan Chief, dare not let the Ning Clan hear you say that Chu Xinghe does not understand the Art of Qimen Dunjia. If that old man Clan Head Ning, were to hear you, he could come overnight with Gatling to show you whether Chu Xinghe truly understands the Art of Qimen Dunjia!
Hearing what the Hua Clan Elder said, the Clan Head Hua quickly shut his mouth. However, the Clan Head Hua said that even if Chu Xinghe knew the Art of Qimen Dunjia, everyone still remembered what happened to the Cui Clan last time!
So whether Chu Xinghe understands it or not is one thing, whether he can solve it is another!
We don't need to worry about whether Chu Xinghe knows how to forge weapons. As long as I go to Vast Heaven Holy Land in person, Chu Xinghe will definitely have a solution!
It must be said that the explanation given by the Clan Head Hua was reasonable, and the Clan Head Hua did not delay, heading to the Vast Heaven Holy Land that very day.
However, after the Clan Head Hua arrived at the Vast Heaven Holy Land, he was stopped by Ma Liang as soon as he said he wanted to pay his respects to Chu Xinghe.
Ma Liang said to Clan Head Hua, "Your timing is rather inconvenient."
Our Senior Brother Xinghe has recently gone into seclusion... and he's even gone into seclusion on the ninth floor of the Technique Repository Tower!
As we all know, our Senior Brother Xinghe has three levels of seclusion. The first level is seclusion in his own room. Senior Brother Xinghe can come out of this kind of seclusion whenever he wants, so it's just a short seclusion!
Then our Senior Brother Xinghe go into seclusion elsewhere. This kind of seclusion usually takes him almost a month to come out, and during that time it's really hard to find Senior Brother Xinghe.
The third type is the most terrifying: the nine-story seclusion in the Technique Repository Tower!
Once our Senior Brother Xinghe enters the Technique Repository Tower for seclusion, it's really hard to say when he'll come out!
So, Clan Head Hua, you'll just have to wait for now.
The Vast Heaven Holy Land did not neglect the arrival of the Clan Head Hua. Under the instructions of the Grand Elder, Ma Liang treated the Clan Head Hua with the finest wine and food, and the highest standard of hospitality.
The problem is that while the Clan Head Hua is enjoying fine food and wine, the Hua Clan itself is on the verge of exploding.
With the Quenching Pool malfunctioning, now all the spiritual treasures sold by the Hua Clan are starting to have problems!
The magical treasures sold by the Hua Clan are found all over the Three Continents.
There's a saying in Three Continents: "Except for Chu Xinghe, nobody's money comes from thin air."
Whether you're Rogue Cultivator or a prodigy, spiritual treasures are extremely important to everyone.
Many Rogue Cultivators have saved up resources for three to five years just to barely purchase a spiritual treasure from the Hua Clan to enhance their combat power. Now you're telling them that the spiritual treasure is malfunctioning, cursed, and unusable, and might even turn against its owner if things go wrong? Tell me, can Rogue Cultivators accept this?
Let alone Rogue Cultivators, even those prodigies couldn't just stand by and watch their spiritual treasures be destroyed!
So, in a short time, countless people blocked the Hua Clan's spirit treasure shops in various parts of the Three Continents, all shouting that the Hua Clan should refund their money!
The Hua Clan showed no concern about the blocking of the door. In fact, the Hua Clan's stewards immediately informed all the customers who came to request refunds that the Clan Head Hua had gone to the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
"Gentlemen... Our Clan Head Hua has already gone to the Vast Heaven Holy Land. If you don't trust our Hua Clan, do you not trust the Vast Heaven Holy Land as well?"
"With the Vast Heaven Holy Land and Lord Xinghe's intervention, this crisis of the spiritual treasure curse can definitely be easily resolved, don't you agree!"
It must be said that while the reputation of the Hua Clan is unknown, the reputation of the Vast Heaven Holy Land is certainly high.
After the various stewards of the Hua Clan released this news, the situation improved somewhat.
Although the area in front of the Hua Clan's spirit treasure shop is still packed with people every day, their emotions are noticeably less agitated.
Everyone is discussing how Chu Xinghe will help the Hua Clan overcome this crisis!
But as time went on, everyone realized something was wrong!
It's been almost half a month since the Clan Head Hua went to the Vast Heaven Holy Land, why haven't we heard a single word from him yet?
The Hua Clan repeatedly explained that Chu Xinghe was currently in seclusion, and the Xinghe Clan Head Hua was waiting for him to finish.
As soon as Xinghe emerges from seclusion, your problems will be resolved perfectly in no time.
However, many people began to doubt this reason, with countless people saying that Chu Xinghe seemed to know nothing about weapon crafting... So, was the so-called seclusion just a way to delay things?
Is there really no way for Chu Xinghe to do anything?
Therefore, the Hua Clan became even more agitated.
Not only did customers who bought spiritual treasures from the Hua Clan start coming to their door demanding refunds, but even more troublesome was the fact that countless weapon refiners had also come to the Hua Clan's side.
It should be noted that the Hua Clan was previously known as the number one clan for weapon crafting in the Spirit Beast Continent!
Every year, countless weapon refiners visit the Hua Clan for paid consultations.
Not only do they offer paid consultations, but the Hua Clan's Craft God Quenching Pool is also renowned. The spiritual treasures refined in the Craft God Quenching Pool can not only increase the success rate, but also have the potential to enhance the power of the spiritual treasures.
Therefore, not only do weapon refiners seek advice for a fee, but many weapon refiners also pay to borrow the Hua Clan's Craft God Quenching Pool when refining powerful spiritual treasures.
In this situation, it wasn't just the magical treasures crafted by the Hua Clan that encountered problems; many magical treasures crafted by master craftsmen who borrowed the Hua Clan's Craft God Quenching Pool also developed issues.
These master craftsmen have quit.
Although it's true that we created the magical treasure, the problem lies with the Hua Clan's Craft God Quenching Pool.
Now that Lingbao is in trouble, and you people are coming to us, then we have no choice but to turn to the Hua Clan.
Therefore, in a short period of time, the Hua Clan has been thrown into chaos by various factions across the Three Continents!
If it were just Rogue Cultivators, that would be fine. But you have to know that the Hua Clan not only helps Rogue Cultivators forge spiritual treasures, but also helps all the major forces in the Three Continents. Basically, the Hua Clan has taken on all their work!
After all, it's extremely difficult to get Ouyang Ming to forge a spiritual treasure. It's said that in the entire Three Continents, only Zheng Yu is willing to shamelessly approach Ouyang Ming to have a spiritual treasure forged.
There's no way around it. Last time, we obtained a piece of divine bronze from Martial Emperor City. If this divine bronze were given to other weapon-refining masters, it would definitely be enough to make a sacred artifact. But even the strongest weapon-refining masters in the world can only guarantee a 10% chance of making a divine artifact.
However, if there's only a 10% chance that such divine bronze is a divine artifact, then it would be a huge loss.
So Zheng Yu went straight to Vast Heaven Holy Land and stayed at the Artifact Refining Palace!
Zheng Yu keeps pestering Ouyang Ming to be Pixiu... You see, doesn't Senior Brother Xinghe often say that I, Zheng Yu, am his Lucky General Zheng?
I, Zheng Yu, am already Lucky General Zheng. Now I'm asking you, Ouyang Ming, for help. Is there a problem with that?
If you, Ouyang Ming, don't make a move, then I, Zheng Yu, will be living in your Artifact Refining Palace. I'll eat your braised pork every day, I'll eat your cold noodles every day... I'll eat them every single day...
In the end, Ouyang Ming agreed, and the Ouyang Ming bronze was successfully forged into a divine artifact...
However, there are very few people in the world who can do what Zheng Yu did, so under normal circumstances, when major forces want to create various spiritual treasures, they all turn to the Hua Clan.
What the heck? Why didn't Ouyang Ming take this incredibly lucrative opportunity?
Ouyang Ming liked to eat, not that he was lazy. The number of times he fried food in a day could circle the Artifact Refining Palace three times. Ouyang Ming was definitely not lazy at all.
Ouyang Ming once suggested that our Artifact Refining Palace should also take on forging jobs from outside!
As soon as he finished speaking, Senior Brother Xinghe immediately rejected his statement!
Chu Xinghe said, "Ouyang Pixiu, isn't the knife on my back enough? How about you give me a few more cuts first?"
They think they can make a killing by taking on outside jobs? No way!
So the Ouyang Lineage never takes on outside jobs not because Ouyang Lineage lazy, but because Senior Brother Xinghe doesn't allow it!
It is precisely for this reason that the Hua Clan has accepted countless orders from major powers to Rogue Cultivators outside having problems, but the spiritual treasures of all the major powers have also been cursed. In this situation, it's still better for Rogue Cultivators to just stall for time.
However, people from various powerful factions have already begun to come knocking on the Hua Clan's door demanding an explanation!
Now, not only are outsiders getting anxious, but even the Hua Clan members are starting to panic!
If things continue to develop like this, even if we sold our Hua Clan, we probably still wouldn't be able to afford the compensation!
