The first to react was Si Long. As Lou Gao's Chief Disciple and bodyguard, he raised his right hand, and a flash of light appeared.

A small, pure gold Chisel appeared in his hand, surrounded by six Soul Ring Chisel considerable level; however, the distribution of the Soul Ring was not ideal.

One white, two yellow, three purple.

As Soul Emperor, he didn't even have a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.

Si Long raised his Martial Soul and strode to the front of Lou Gao, shouting loudly, "You rude scoundrel! My master is the president of the Blacksmith Association. How dare you, a mere brat, insult him?"

Si Long's eyes were filled with anger.

Lou Gao sensed something was wrong and quickly grabbed Si Long, shouting, "Don't be impulsive!"

However, Lou Gao was too slow. By the time he grabbed Si Long, Quan Yi had already reached Si Long's side.

He patted Si Long's shoulder lightly and said with a smile, "Grandmaster Si Long, there's no need to be nervous. I'm here today on behalf of the Quan Family, and everything I've said comes with the utmost sincerity."

Si Long had no idea why Quan Yi approached him; in the blink of an eye Quan Yi had bumped into him.

Looking at the gentle smile before him, Si Long felt an overwhelming sense of fear welling up inside him.

Even though Quan Yi hadn't exerted any force, he found that he couldn't move at all, and his arm holding the Chisel was trembling involuntarily.

Because he saw a chilling Killing Intent in Quan Yi's eyes.

His intuition told him that if he made the slightest move at this moment, the person in front of him would definitely kill him without hesitation.

The fear of death made Si Long personally experience the terror of Quan Yi.

"Si Long, step back."

Lou Gao sensed Si Long's unusual behavior, pulled Si Long back with his hand, and walked up to Quan Yi himself.

He carefully examined Quan Yi's appearance. His undisguised strong physique and powerful aura, along with his youthful face, created a sense of confusion for him.

However, he remained calm and said, "Young man, this is not the place to talk. Why don't you come to my office and we can discuss this in detail?"

Quan Yi nodded and said, "Of course, please lead the way Master Lou."

Lou Gao Quan Yi was so easy to talk to, which made me feel a little relieved.

Lou Gao instructed Si Long to continue forging, and then, alone, took Quan Yi to his private office upstairs.

Upon entering the office, the interior was not decorated much, except for some blueprints and two disassembled Bicycle.

One is the original version, and the other is the new version.

Lou Gao made no attempt to hide his feelings, saying, "Thanks to the Bicycle invented by your family's Blacksmith, we've been able to make a lot of money as a result."

This is not a lie. You should know that the total annual turnover of the entire Blacksmith Association is only 200,000 Gold Soul Coin, while in the very beginning, they could sell 100,000 Gold Soul Coin a day.

This is why Lou Gao chose to stay in Saus City, even at the risk of offending the Quan Family.

Quan Yi said nonchalantly, "I didn't deliberately hide it. Master Lou is skilled at imitating."

Lou Gao's perception of Quan Yi was heightened once again.

The two sat down one after the other, Lou Gao was the first to ask a question.

"Sir, I have never heard of anyone named Quan Family before. I wonder how I can confirm your identity?"

The Lou Gao, and they cautiously tested the waters.

Without hesitation, Quan Yi's hands flashed with light, and the red and black Blazing Sun Gauntlets appeared.

Furthermore, a terrifying combination of two yellow, one purple, and two black Soul Ring appeared behind him.

"Hiss~!"

Lou Gao could hardly believe the sight before him, but the aura emanating from Quan Yi confirmed its authenticity.

Furthermore, the signature Gauntlets Martial Soul of the Quan Family solidified Lou Gao's belief in Quan Yi's identity.

"My name is Quan Yi. I am the current head of the Quan Family, the son of Quan Yue, and also the current Young Family Head of the Quan Family."

Lou Gao stared in disbelief, his shock greater than ever before.

Among the intelligence he collected, there was almost no information about Quan Yi. Quan Yi, Quan Yi rarely appeared in the public eye, was known to very few people except for a few close friends.

Now, upon suddenly learning that the Quan Family has such a great heir, and that he is so talented and powerful, Lou Gao has gained a deeper understanding of the Quan Family.

Although Quan Yi's physique is different from that of ordinary people, Lou Gao, who has lived for so long, can still tell that Quan Yi is not very old.

"Brother Quan, I understand why you've come."

Quan Yi continued, "Master Lou, there's no need to be nervous. This isn't a forced request. Grandmaster can give me your answer after careful consideration."

Lou Gao then stood up abruptly and replied, "I agree, I agree to join."

Lou Gao's reaction surprised Quan Yi somewhat, but Lou Gao's expression didn't seem fake.

Quan Yi's expression turned extremely serious, and he solemnly said, "Master Lou, Grandmaster should know what joining the Quan Family really means. Don't you really need to reconsider?"

Joining another family and becoming a subordinate means obeying the Quan Family's orders completely and not betraying them.

Lou Gao was intimidated by Quan Yi's imposing presence and felt a sense of fear.

However, he had greater ambitions than Quan Yi's intimidation.

Even if it means losing freedom and status for this pursuit, so what?

Lou Gao arrived in Saus City and saw many encouraging changes. In just two years, the Blacksmith industry, which had been neglected, had shown signs of booming development.

The decline of the Blacksmith industry is fundamentally due to the extreme scarcity of people's demand for ironware, and the cause of this lies in the Tool Martial Soul.

However, even Tool Martial Soul cannot be transformed into a means of transportation.

The emergence of Bicycle perfectly met people's needs for travel.

The Blacksmith of Saus City also seized this opportunity and achieved great success. Lou Gao, seeing this, truly realized that simply pursuing weapons and armor could not truly improve the status of Blacksmith.

The demand for weapons and armor fluctuates as the situation changes.

In recent years, the situation on the mainland has become more peaceful, and people's demand for weapons and protective gear has decreased significantly, leading to a further decline in the Blacksmith industry.

Now, Lou Gao's arrival in Saus City and witnessing the rise of the Blacksmith industry is like discovering a vibrant flower bud from frozen soil.

"I know what this means, but I care more about the gains and losses of the entire Blacksmith industry than my personal gains and losses."

Moreover, based on what Young Lord Quan has done for all the Blacksmith in Saus City over the past two years, I know that Young Lord Quan harbors goodwill towards the Blacksmith. This alone is enough for me to agree."

The Quan Family made no attempt to conceal their actions and tacitly allowed the Blacksmith at the bottom to imitate and forge Bicycle, which showed Lou Gao a selfless attitude.

Lou Gao didn't dislike the Quan Family, and more importantly, he personally had a great interest in the Blacksmith made the Bicycle.

In his judgment, this Blacksmith was likely a hidden Godly Blacksmith, and even Godly Blacksmith who surpassed him.

If one could have close contact with this master craftsman, his own forging skills would also improve.

Lou Gao naturally had to join in on this good thing that could satisfy both his personal desires and his sense of justice.

"In that case, we welcome Godly Blacksmith Lou Gao to join the Quan Family."

Quan Yi stood up, smiling broadly as he reached out and grasped Lou Gao's hand.

Lou Gao also smiled broadly as he grasped Quan Yi's hand and shook his arm vigorously.
