"It's indeed for a sister-in-law, but not my wife, it's Brother Chui's wife. She's strong enough to fit into this armor perfectly."
Recalling Sun Ruonan's terrifying power, Wang Hao was filled with emotion.
During the month when the Shameless Greatsword was being forged, Sun Ruonan came to see Zhao Dachui. Out of curiosity, she picked up the Broken Sword of Heaven-Reliant and tried to bend it.
Although the Heaven Sword is hollow inside and its blade is not as thick as the Dragon-Slaying Saber, resulting in more toughness than hardness, it is still made of Profound Iron, and it is extremely difficult to bend without tens of thousands of pounds of force.
This shows just how terrifying Sun Ruonan's power is, but strangely, her cultivation level is still at the Super-First-Rate level and she hasn't broken through to the Grandmaster Realm.
However strange its condition may be, with such formidable strength, wearing this tens of thousands of pounds of Purple Gold armor would be no problem at all.
Unfortunately, that girl's Roshi wasn't great; she could only unleash about one percent of her formidable strength. However, her archery skills were excellent, so he specially crafted this set of bows and arrows for her.
The war bow was made of Purple Gold, and the arrows were forged from iron ingots of the same quality as the battle axe in Tie Niu's hand, and were specially treated to be extremely sharp and hard.
"That sister-in-law?"
Tie Niu couldn't help but shiver, clearly remembering Sun Ruonan had come to the forging room that time.
That's a monster in human skin!
"What are those wings for? Can this suit of armor fly?"
Tie Niu's gaze fell once again on the Purple Gold wings on the back of the armor. He had spent most of his time forging the armor on these wings, whose internal structure was incredibly complex, making him feel overwhelmed even now.
"Theoretically, it's possible to fly, but it's quite difficult, so it'll be up to Brother Chui's wife to figure it out herself."
Glancing at the retracted Purple Gold wings, Wang Hao gave an ambiguous answer; in fact, even he himself wasn't sure if the thing could fly.
This design is a mechanical secret technique recorded in the Treasured Records of Mechanisms he obtained from the Eastern Heretic's inheritance. It is a method for manufacturing a mechanical wing called Iron Cloud Twin Wings, which has an extremely intricate and complex structure.
According to the ancient book "Record of Treasured Records of Mechanisms," a Grandmaster mechanic from the Mohist School wanted to fly into the sky to achieve ascension to immortality, so he developed a set of mechanical wings that Simulation the wings of birds.
Whether the Grandmaster ascended to immortality or not, he did not know, but this set of mechanical wings called Iron Cloud Twin Wings was indeed a masterpiece of craftsmanship, and could be controlled by internal energy.
He had tried it a few times with his Innate Qi and was indeed able to control it briefly, but whether he could actually fly was unknown, though it was theoretically possible.
If you really can't fly, you can simply unfold the wings and use it as a hang glider!
If combined with the light-footed skills of this martial arts world, low-altitude gliding flight is not impossible.
"Brother Wang, what's the name of this Pretty suit of armor?"
At this moment, Taohong walked in carrying a bowl of steamed buns. Her bright eyes blinked as she looked at the set of Purple Gold armor, clearly admiring the luxurious and stunning armor.
After all, women are always powerless against beautiful things.
"It's called the Xun Feather Cloth!"
Wang Hao replied without hesitation.
That's right, it's the Cloth.
The design of this armor was inspired by some design concepts from the Sagittarius Gold Cloth in Saint. Besides its extremely strong defensive capabilities, it's simply cool!
Therefore, it is called Cloth.
"Xunyu! That's right, Sister Ruonan is a year younger than Young Master Dachui, and she was born in the Year of the Rooster."
Taohong suddenly realized why Wang Hao had named it that way.
What does Xunyu have to do with chickens?
While eating a large meat bun, Tie Niu asked in confusion, clearly not understanding the similarity between the two words.
"Idiot, 'Xunyu' is another name for chicken, but 'chicken' doesn't sound very nice. 'Xunyu' would be much better."
Rolling her eyes at the ignorant Tie Niu, she continued to scrutinize the suit of armor with her Taohong eyes.
It's absolutely Pretty!
Of course, although she was very envious, she didn't have any intention of owning one.
Just kidding. Although she does practice martial arts, she's only at Third-Rate level. She struggles to even lift a small part of the armor, let alone put on the whole set.
"Finally done!"
Wang Hao let out a long breath and nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the war bow nocked on the string in his hand.
This suit of armor and bow were wedding gifts he prepared for Brother Chui and his wife. After all, the father and son had helped him a lot, and it was only right to repay them within his means.
" Tie Niu, bring in the large chest of Thousand-Forged Refined Steel that I forged. Taohong, tidy up this place; we're going to deliver the gift to Brother Chui right away!"
Wang Hao greeted Tie Niu and Taohong.
This entire suit of armor, along with the bow, weighed a full 13,000 jin (approximately 6,500 kg), which couldn't be contained in an ordinary wooden box. Therefore, he specially crafted an iron box from Thousand-Forged Refined Steel.
"Brother Wang, you'd better hurry. Today is Young Master Dachui's wedding day. Judging by the time, the Tokiomi should have already started."
Taohong smiled and reminded him, while also feeling a sense of relief.
Preparing meals for someone with such an enormous appetite like Wang Hao was quite a challenge for one person. Even with Tie Niu helping out, she was still exhausted. Now she could finally be free.
"Just today?"
Wang Hao was stunned. He had only heard Zhao Dachui say that they would get married in a month, but he didn't know it would be today.
"You don't need to come with me anymore. Wrap the Purple Gold plaque I made in cloth and send it to Elder Chu of the Martial Repository Pavilion. Also, safely return Taohong to the Blood Wind Hall, and while you're at it, tell the Hall Master about what's going on down here."
After regaining his senses, Wang Hao called out to Tie Niu, then brought in the iron box outside, quickly put the Xun Feather Battle Armor and battle bow inside, and then put in another set of Purple Gold soft armor next to it.
The Purple Gold that had been forged previously totaled 15,000 jin. Of that, 13,000 jin were used to forge armor and a bow for Sun Ruonan, and 1,000 jin were used to make a set of Purple Gold soft armor for Zhao Dachui.
The last thousand catties of Purple Gold were made into a plaque to be given to Elder Chu as a farewell gift.
After all, Elder Chu had helped him a lot, so it was only right to give him a gift before parting ways.
Finally, Wang Hao took out nine carefully crafted arrows and two longswords, one hard and one soft, and put them inside before resealing the box.
These arrows and the two longswords were all forged by him using iron ore he bought. They were of the same quality as Tie Niu's battle axe, and the arrows had been specially treated so that they would be used with the battle bow. As for the two swords, they were for Zhao Dachui.
After taking a quick bath in the well water in the courtyard, Wang Hao changed into a set of brocade clothes, put on a bamboo hat with a light veil, and then carried the sealed box on his shoulder, walking briskly towards the Sun family mansion.
Zhao Dachui wasn't going to welcome the girl into his family; he was going to become her son-in-law. Although he hadn't been to the Sun Household's residence, he knew which direction it was in. He could just ask someone when he got there.
They walked briskly for half Tokiomi and finally arrived at the Sun Household, only to find that the wedding banquet had already ended and they were seeing off their guests.
"Is this young master here to congratulate my young lady and son-in-law and bring them gifts?"
The Sun family steward, who was standing at the door seeing off the guests, frowned slightly as he watched Wang Hao stride in carrying a large iron box.
It's really inappropriate to arrive so late, after my own wedding banquet has already ended!
What's most outrageous is that you're wearing a straw hat, with the veil covering your entire face—what's the meaning of that?
If it weren't for the fact that today was his young mistress's wedding day, he would have definitely chased her out with a stick.
That's right, Wang Hao was currently covering his face with a bamboo hat and the light veil on it.
There's no way around it; his appearance and physique are too distinctive, and his towering height of ten feet makes him the center of attention wherever he goes.
So at this moment he was wearing the same disguise as Zhu Yanzu, but he didn't want to reveal this identity for the time being, so he could only cover his face.
"Brother Hammer, I've come to your wedding!"
Wang Hao ignored the steward of the Sun family and instead looked at Zhao Dachui, who was seeing off guests not far ahead. The man looked drunk and had obviously drunk a lot.
Zhao Dachui, who was still drunk, was taken aback when he heard Wang Hao's voice. He turned around and looked puzzled for a while until he saw Wang Hao make a special gesture with his right hand. Then his pupils shrank, and he realized that he recognized Wang Hao.
Smiling, Zhao Dachui saw off his relatives and friends, then strode over and playfully punched Wang Hao on the shoulder, laughing and scolding, "I thought you weren't coming!"
"I was a little delayed preparing gifts for you two, but it's not too late, you haven't even consummated your marriage yet!"
Wang Hao chuckled, patting the large iron box he was carrying on his shoulder, which made a dull thud, indicating that it was quite heavy.
"This is quite a generous gift! I'm already looking forward to it. Come on, let's go inside and have a drink! Uncle Sun, could you please tell the kitchen to prepare another table of food and drinks? I want to have a good drink with my brother."
Looking down at the completely shattered stone brick at Wang Hao's feet, Zhao Dachui was genuinely looking forward to the gift inside the large box.
Seeing this, the steward of the Sun family knew that the other party was acquainted with his son-in-law, so he didn't pay attention to Wang Hao's attire, responded, and prepared to go in to arrange the banquet.
"No need, I have to leave Beijing soon, I can't stay any longer!"
He waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for further preparations. Wang Hao really couldn't stay here any longer and had to leave the city before the gates closed.
After all, things aren't very peaceful in the capital right now. Staying for even one more day increases the chances of things going wrong, so it's best to leave as soon as possible.
" Uncle Sun, go and fetch two jugs of wine. Also, call Ruonan out; this generous gift from my brother must be handed to Ruonan personally!"
Zhao Dachui knew about Wang Hao's situation, so he didn't force him and gestured to Uncle Sun to bring over two jugs of fine wine.
You can skip the banquet, but you absolutely must have a sip of the wedding wine.
Moreover, this gift seems to be quite heavy, clearly intended primarily for his wife. Naturally, he should let his wife come out to meet him and, incidentally, carry this Gravity back with her.
Anyway, this wedding banquet is just a formality; there's no need to go through the formalities of choosing a bridal veil or a traditional wedding night. The bride can move around freely.
A short while later, Uncle Sun brought two jugs of fine wine, followed by Sun Ruonan was dressed in a red wedding gown.
"Sister-in-law, this is a special gift I prepared for you and your husband. Please accept it!"
Upon seeing Sun Ruonan arrive, Wang Hao handed her the box he was carrying on his shoulder.
Sun Ruonan was initially confused and gently reached out to support it, but she was almost bent over by the weight. It took all her strength to steady herself.
"That is indeed a very generous gift!"
Sun Ruonan was surprised; this box was indeed quite heavy. What could be inside?
Regardless of what's inside, its sheer size suggests it's no ordinary item.
" Brother Chui, don't forget to tell the little guy I'm his godfather when the baby's born!"
Smiling, Wang Hao raised the wine jug in his hand to Zhao Dachui, then lifted the lid and drank it all in one gulp, marking their last drink before parting ways.
"Of course I'll never forget!"
Zhao Dachui laughed too, lifted the lid of the pot, and drank it all in one gulp.
Goodbye!
"Take care of yourself!"
The two exchanged a fist salute, and Wang Hao turned and strode away.
"Brother Zhao, who is he?"
Only then did Sun Ruonan ask curiously. She knew all of Zhao Dachui's friends and relatives, but she had no recollection of that person at all.
"Oh, him! He's a brother of mine. He came to deliver this congratulatory gift on my behalf!"
Zhao Dachui explained with a smile, without revealing Wang Hao's identity.
Since Wang Hao had concealed his face, he must not want to reveal his current identity, so he naturally had to cooperate and keep this secret.
"Don't think about it too much, hurry back to your room and check the gifts in the box, I can't wait!"
