Chapter 145: The Dilemma of the Armament Canon,
Marquiss
Translator: Atlas Studios | Editor: Atlas Studios
Looking at Emperor Yuan Fengs back, Zhou shu was a bit puzzled.
Dont they say that Emperor Yuan Feng is a good-natured and benevolent old
man
Why does he seem a little unpredictable
Cough cough-Yin Changhao pretended to cough and only spoke when he saw
Zhou Shu looking at him.
“Zhou Shu, did you save Wuyou
“No.” Zhou Shu shook his head.
“It was my senior brother-I mean, Senior
Nameless.”
Oh.” Yin Changhao nodded.
His brother had lost his mind and forgot to ask
about important matters.
“Let me ask you.
Did you see who injured Wuyou Yin Changhao asked.
Yin Wuyou was the little princess of the imperial family.
How could they let the
person who injured her off so easily
Did they really think that he, Yin Changhao, wouldnt kill them
Zhou Shu thought for a moment before saying, “I heard from my senior
brother that it was Great Weis Imperial Preceptor Xíao Shunzhi.”
When he killed Xiao Shunzhi, there shouldnt have been any outsiders present.
But the Heavenly Mountain Villas methods were unfathomable.
He didnt
know if they would be able to find out.
The news of Xiao Shunzhïs death would become public sooner or later, so
there was no need to hide it.
(If you have problems with this website, please continue reading your novel on our new website myboxnovel.com THANKS!)
In any case, there was the nameless expert to take the blame.
“Xiao Shunzhi Yin Changhaos eyes widened, and murderous intent burst
from his body.
“Xiao Shunzhi was already killed by my senior brother,” Zhou Shu said without
blinking
It didnt feel awkward for him to say this.
The novels he had read in his
previous life actually came to use.
“Xiao Shunzhi is dead Yin Changhaos mouth felt dry.
Xiao Shunzhis cultivation level was almost on par with his.
The two of them
had fought many times, but neither side won.
Now that an old opponent had died just like that, Yin Changhao didnt feel the
slightest bit of joy.
He only felt his entire body turn cold.
If Nameless could kill Xiao Shunzhi, then he could kill him.
Ever since he advanced to the first rank, Yin Changhao had not felt this way for
many years.
He suddenly felt his safety wasnt guaranteed even though he was a first-rank
martial artist.
“Brother Zhou.
” Yin Changhao finally said after a while.
He wasnt the
emperor, so why would he care about face
“Um, did your senior brother give Wuyou a medicinal pill Then.”
Zhou Shu glanced at Yin Changhao.
He had experienced Yin Changhaos
shamelessness before.
Half his share of the Heaven Refining Stone had even
been taken away.
Seeing his expression, Zhou Shu knew what he was thinking
He didnt expect him not to care about his status and address him as a brother.
“Yes,” Zhou Shu said.
“My senior brother gave her a Breakthrough Pill.
But this
Breakthrough Pill is only useful for martial artists below the first rank Your
Highness, you dont need to think about it.
Its useless for you.
“Besides, I dont have any on me.” Zhou Shu spread out his hands.
Only useful for those below the first rank” Yin Changhao said in
disappointment.
“Brother Zhou, what is your senior brothers level now
Yin Changhao was getting more and more comfortable calling him Brother
Zhou.
According to ancient legends, there was another world above the first rank of
the Martial Dao, but no one had ever broken through the first rank.
How could Yin Changhao not be curious about an expert włho was suspected to
be above the first rank
“Your Highness, dont you think youve asked the wrong person” Zhou Shu
said helplessly.
“Look at me.
My spiritual essence cultivation is only at the
eighth rank.
Do you think I know what realm my senior brother is at Even if
he told me, I wouldnt understand.”
“Alright then,” Yin Changhao said.
“I want to visit your senior brother.
Could
you help me contact him”
“Sorry, I cant contact him either,” Zhou Shu refused.
“My senior brother is a
mysterious figure that rarely appears.
Unless he comes looking for me, I wont
be able to find him.”
Then, tell me when he comes to find you..”
“No problem.” You can wait slowly then.
He will only appear once in a blue
moon.
“Brother Zhou, if you have time later, why dont you let me see your
Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords Technique
Zhou Shu: “..”
Zhou Shu returned to the barons mansion from the imperial palace.
Mi Zhifu immediately came to beg for forgiveness.
His young master had asked
him to take good care of Zhou Shu.
But in the end, Zhou Shu was kidnapped.
It
frightened him teribly.
After Zhou Shu comforted him for a long time, Mi Zhifu left the mansion
nervously.
Before he left, Mi Zhifu wanted to arrange a group of guards for the barons
residence.
But before Zhou Shu could reject him, he was rejected by the Divine
Constable Bureaus Commander Ma Fengzhang.
The Divine Constable Bureau had specially dispatched a few divine constables
and a dozen constables to guard the barons mansion.
This was not a treatment that ordinary county barons could enjoy.
Of course, this was also because Ma Fengzhang was afraid.
If Zhou Shu disappeared again, he would lose his position as the commander of
the Divine Constable Bureau.
Even though Zhou shu had returned, this matter was not yet resolved.
Who abducted him How did the other party do it Why was the death warrior
from the great generals residence
For now, there was no conclusion.
Before this matter was concluded, Ma Fengzhang absolutely couldnt let
anything happen to Zhou Shu again.
Zhou Shu didnt take these matters to heart.
If they were willing to protect him, then let them protect him.
This was even
better.
He could save himself some trouble.
He took a comfortable shower and slept.
He slept from day to night, then from night to day.
Zhou Shu opened his eyes
and didnt get up.
In the air in front of him, a book that only he could see was rustling
only after killing Xiao Shunzhi did Zhou shu finally have the mood to look
through the Legendary Armament Canon.
When he killed Xiao Shunzhi earlier, he had received feedback from the
Legendary Amament Canon that his cultivation of the Astounding Heavenly
Eighteen Swords Technique had directly reached perfection.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation afterhe obtained
the Legendary Armament Canon.
Currently, he had received the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique, Heavenly
Saber Art, Golden Bell Shield Technique, Visualization of the Five Mountains
True Form, Breakthrough Pills, and the Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords
Technique from the Legendary Armament Canon.
In addition, there was also the reward brought by the Great Xia Dragon
Sparrow Saber-the forging formulas for standard weapons.
The Heavenly Saber Art was almost limitless.
He couldnt even see the
pertection stage yet.
The Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique had already reached the twelfth level
and was not too far away from the thirteenth level.
The Golden Bell Shield Technique had also reached the eleventh level and was
only a step away from the twelfth level and reaching perfection.
The Visualization of the Five Mountains True Form was similar to the
Heavenly Saber Art, and he couldnt see its perfection stage yet.
On the other hand, the Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords Technique that
appeared the latest had reached perfection after he killed a first-rank martial
artist.
Zhou Shu had always been curious.
If the Legendary Ammament Canon ran out
of rewards, what would happen
Great Destroyer Sword Zhou Shu recited in his heart.
The Legendary Armament Canon flipped to the page of the Great Destroyer
Sword.
Soon, the page of the Great Destroyer Sword appeared before him.
The content of this page didnt change much.
At the top was the Great Destroyer Swords name.
In the middle was the image of the Great Destroyer Sword.
Farther down was the kill record.
Upgrade (8/100))
Although the feedback from killing a first-rank martial artist was huge, it was
only one kill.
The upgrade of the Great Destroyer Sword still required ninety-two kills.
This made Zhou Shua little depressed.
This was the biggest difference between a ranked weapon and a standard
weapon.
By completing kills, upgrades could be unlocked, and rewards would
be given.
Furthermore, as long as he forged 100 of the stated standard weapon, he would
be able to unlock the next weapon.
But the reward for the Great Xia Dragon
Sparrow Saber was also the secret forging fornmula for standard weapons, so he
didnt need to forge 100 of them.
However, the slots for the 100 weapons were still there.
Only the 100 weapons
that he personally forged could bring him benefits.
How exactly was he supposed to unlock the next weapon for ranked weapons
Zhou Shu frowned slightly.
The Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords
Technique had already reached perfection.
If the Great Destroyer Sword
completed a kill again, would the Legendary Armament Canon not give him
any benefits
If that was the case, it would be depressing
However, it was not shown on the Legendary Armament Canon currently.
From the looks of it, he could only wait for the Great Destroyer Sword to
complete another kill before he could see the changes.
What a headache.
Do I have to carry the Great Destroyer Sword out to kill
people
Zhou Shu rubbed his forehead.
He didnt have much interest in killing people.
Now that the Great Destroyer
Sword had become public, it was no longer appropriate to hand it over to Sun
Gongping.
It was easy to explain to Sun Gongping.
He could just tell him that he hadnt
been able to forge a ranked weapon.
But with the Great Destroyer Sword in his hands, the biggest problem was that
if he wanted to upgrade it, he would have to kill enemies himself.
As a Forging Master, he couldnt possibly carry the sword everywhere to kill
enemies.
I can only slowly think ofa way.
I have to keep the Great Destroyer Sword with
me, and there are no other ranked weapons on the Legendary Armament
Canon.
It seems like I can only remain as a Forging Apprentice..
Zhou Shu let out a long sigh.
Just as he was thinking about it, a shout came from the front.
“Lord, an
imperial edict has arrived.”
**
When Zhou Shu arrived at the front hall, he saw Eunuch Zhao again.
Eunuch Zhao was a good person.
Every time he came, he would bring him
benefits.
He smiled and greeted Eunuch Zhao, “Eunuch Zhao, good morning.
Have you
eaten
Eunuch Zhao was stunned by his greeting.
7his baron is really strange.
“Thank you for your concern, Lord.
I have eaten.”
“Eunuch Zhao, what instructions does His Majesty have” Zhou Shudao asked.
He had forgotten to ask yesterday whether Yang Hong had given those secret
forging formulas to Emperor Yuan Feng.
Right now, he was temporarily unable to forge any ranked weapons.
Thus, he
could only continue to forge standard weapons.
He had to make good use of the
secret forging formulas.
Its a good thing” Eunuch Zhao smiled.
“Baron Zhou, no, I should call you
Marquis Zhou henceforth.”
Eunuch Zhao sighed with emotion.
The imperial edict that sealed Zhou Shu as
a county baron had been personally delivered by him.
How long has it been
A month
At most a month!
And then he was made a marquis
Hes probably the only person promoted to a marquis so quickly in Great Xia.
Of all the marquises in the history of Great Xia, which one of them hadnt
fought on the battlefield for decades before winning the title of marquis
Even during the founding of the country, there was no such rapid promotion.
However, his achievements left others speechless.
He had recovered two prefectures for Great Xia.
Not many people in the
thousand years of history of Great Xia could compare to him.
In the current
dynasty, only Great General Meng could compare to him in terms of military
achievements.
Is this a genius
Comparisons were odious,
Eunuch Zhao began to read the imperial decree.
“Zhou Shu, accept the decree.
Zhou Shu forged the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Saber and made a great
contribution to the country.
He will be bestowed the title of the You Marquis!”
Marquis You Zhou Shu was a little dissatisfied.
This title doesnt sound good.
How domineering would it be to be conferred the title ofChampion Baron
“Eunuch Zhao, His Majesty bestowed me with the title of the You Marquis.
Could it be that he wants to send me to You Prefecture”
Zhou Shu knew very well that You Prefecture was currently in a state of
desolation.
After what had happened, it was still uncertain hovw many people
there were.
What would he do in You Prefecture
“No.
Marquis, you are thinking too much.” Eunuch Zhao smiled and shook his
head.
“Our Great Xias titles are all empty titles.
Dont mind it.
Your fief is You
Prefecture, but you dont have to go there.
You Prefecture has the You
Prefecture governor to take care of it.”
To put it bluntly, Zhou Shu, the You Marquis, could get benefits without having
to work.
This isnt bad.
Zhou Shu didnt think about how much tax You Prefecture could
receive in its current state.
Eunuch Zhao continued, “Marquis, His Majesty has said that your residence
has high standards to begin with.
This time, he will not award you with
another mansion.
Ill get someone to change the plaque later.
Zhou shu pouted, but he didnt mind.
His current residence was not small.
There were many places he had yet to
visit.
In the past, he might have wanted to stay away from his boSs.
But now, his
attitude has changed..
“Eunuch Zhao, tell me.
What rank is the You Marquis
Zhou Shu didnt know much about the official system of Great Xia.
In his
memories, in the ancient times of his previous life, the different dynasties had
different ranks.
“Marquis, in our Great Xia, is the second rank,” Eunuch Zhao explained.
“King,
duke, marquis, count, viscount, followed by baron.
King transcends the ranks,
while duke is the first rank, and marquis is the second rank..”
Second rank
When he was baron, he was a fifth-rank official.
And now he was promoted to
a second-rank official
A second-ranked official, if placed in his previous life, was he already at the
level where he would be given a state funeral.
Thinking about it this way, Zhou Shu didnt mind the strange-sounding title of
the You Marquis.
Emperor Yuan Feng was quite good.
From nowon, Im also a top figure
If only I could officially become a Forging Master..
Although he had now become a marquis and could lead an easy life for the rest
of his life, Zhou Shu hadnt forgottern his roots.
Forging was his foundation
Even though he became a marquis, he wouldnt leave the Forging Division.
“Marquis, your current status is no longer suitable to bea workshop
superintendent.
His Majesty wishes to give you another task.
” Eunuch Zhao
suddenly said.
“Change jobs No!” Zhou Shu said fimly.
“I only know how to forge.
What else
can I do after leaving the Forging Division His Majesty wouldnt want me to go
into battle, rightI dont want to go.
My senior brother wont agree either”
Eunuch Zhaos face darkened.
Your senior brother The one who killed Great
Wefs imperial preceptor
He was a trusted aide of Emperor Yuan Feng, so he naturally knew of this news.
“Your Majesty doesnt mean-” Eunuch Zhao said.
“What does His Majesty mean”
Eunuch Zhao felt resentful.
I cant possibly say that His Majesty wants you to
stay away from Her Highness
I cant say that.
Right now, His Majesty only wants to discuSs with Marquis
Zhou After all, if hes really transferred out of the Forging Division, it will be a
loss to Great Xia.
Since the marquis ist willing, then His Majesty will likely put this matter
aside
“His Majesty only wants to seek your opinion.
After all, a workshop
superintendent of the Forging Division isnt worthy of your status.”
“Even gold cant buy my will.
I like being a workshop superintendent.”
Eunuch Zhao:”.
