Chapter 1144: Famous

After Ou Yangming took out his token, everyone fell silent. The soldiers of the Dragon Prestige Army were even more terrified. This was the token of the Dragons’ great elder.

In the Great Wide World, the Dragons’ status was very high. Especially on Hidden Dragons Island, the Dragons were above everyone.

Here, as long as one was supported by the Dragons, one could do anything without being obstructed. Injuring 1 or 2 people would be nothing.

After confirming Ou Yangming’s identity, the island master’s expression changed. He lowered his head and glanced at the few members of the Dragon Prestige Army.

At this moment, who was right and who was wrong was no longer important. The captain knew what was important was to not let Ou Yangming hold any grudges against him. This young fellow was someone that even the Dragons’ ancestor had requested to take care of.

“Island Master, I know my mistake. I beg you to let me off this time!”

The captain of the Dragon Prestige Army was also panicking. He felt a strong sense of unease in his heart. If he knew that this young fellow was related to the Dragons, he would not have dared to protect Wu Qingquan even if he was beaten to death. He would not have come to seek trouble for himself. It was too late to say anything at this moment.

“If you knew your mistake, why did you still do it?” The eyes of the island master were a little sharp. He raised his hand and slapped the ground abruptly.

The captain almost died instantly. He fell to the ground and bled from all 7 orifices. The Hidden Dragons Island’s master did not show any mercy when he attacked.

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. They did not expect Master Ou’s background to be so notable that even the island master was on his side.

“No wonder Master Ou dared to teach Wu Qingquan a lesson. It turns out that he has confidence in himself,” someone said in surprise. Looking at Ou Yangming and the others, he was in deep admiration.

Master Jin and the others who had mocked Ou Yangming looked frightened. Seeing that they were not being noticed, they hurriedly sneaked away.

The island master glanced at the remaining members of the Dragon Prestige Army and said, “Go back and receive your punishment yourselves.”

“Yes, Island Master.”

The Dragon Prestige Army left in a hurry. They felt relieved. They would also receive severe punishments but at least they would not lose their lives.

“Lord Ou, what do you think?”

Ou Yangming smiled. “Thank you for standing up for me, Island Master.”

The island master glanced at the crowd then said, “Lord Ou, you’re a guest of the Dragons. It’s my responsibility that you were bullied in my territory. I still have to deal with that man whose name is Wu Qingquan, so I won’t bother you anymore.”

It was worth noting that the Hidden Dragons Island’s master dealt with the matter swiftly. After settling the matter here, he left in a hurry.

Before he left, he invited Ou Yangming to his residence as a guest, but the young fellow tactfully rejected him. He was fighting against the clock to earn materials here, so he did not have time to waste on the ways of the world.

After the island master and the Dragon Prestige Army left, the pressure on everyone gradually disappeared. The golden-robed man smiled and said, “Master Ou, we didn’t know you have such a background. You made us worry for nothing.”

Ou Yangming also cupped his hands and said, “Thank you for your righteous words just now. Time is limited, so I won’t be polite. Everyone, please line up according to the formation just now. I’ll start smithing right away.”

He continued to smith the sword that was not properly smithed. The others also hurriedly lined up. This time, the line was even more majestic than before.

Some of them might not get a chance but there was at least a glimmer of hope if they were in the line. It was worth waiting for a few months to obtain a magic weapon from Ou Yangming.

Of course, Ou Yangming definitely would not stay here for a few months.

Very quickly, the sword was smithed. It was also of Good Grade, which reinforced Ou Yangming’s reputation of smithing fine pieces of equipment.

Ordinary materials could only be smithed into Common Grade magic weapons by other blacksmiths, but the situation was different when it came to Ou Yangming.

After half a day, the first High Grade magic weapon that appeared shocked countless people.

When that recipient was queuing up, he sent a voice transmission to ask his family members to send over the best materials. Given the materials that were provided, Ou Yangming did not disappoint. He directly produced a High Grade magic weapon.

This magic weapon made everyone understand that Master Ou’s level was far from what they thought. It was just that they did not have better materials.

Those people from clans that were closer to the square hurriedly transmitted their voices to the members of clans, asking them to bring them the best materials. They only had one chance so it would really be a pity to waste it on ordinary materials.

On the other hand, the people who came from further away did not have such a good chance. They could only use the ordinary materials they had to exchange for the similarly ordinary magic weapons.

Ou Yangming naturally did not reject their little tricks. In particular, the high-grade materials were all treasures of a clan.

Out of 5 sets of materials, 4 sets were given to Ou Yangming for free for each person. He was already very benevolent compared to other blacksmiths, but he still felt that this was no different from robbing money.

High Grade magic weapons! The continuous appearance of these treasures stimulated countless people. Almost all the people in the East City Square were attracted here.

Seeing those precious materials, the other blacksmiths were envious, but that was all they could do. When the island master showed up just now, everyone saw Ou Yangming’s trump card. Moreover, they found out that he was also a Ruler who understood the laws.

With such strength, he had no opponent on the entire island.

The original trading venue had become Ou Yangming’s stage for performance. Many smart people set up stalls at the side.

There were even people who offered high prices to buy a spot at the front of the queue.

Those who wanted to ask Ou Yangming to smith a High Grade magic weapon but did not have the opportunity were even willing to offer the price of a Good Grade magic weapon to buy an opportunity. This made many people at the front earn a lot.

They did not need to pay for the materials. Why would they not be happy to get a Good Grade magic weapon for free? Their materials were ordinary anyway. Even if it was their turn, they would get a Good Grade magic weapon at most.

Of course, there were not many such fools. Ou Yangming did not care about these things. He only cared about smithing. Every minute and second was valuable to him.

In the 10,000 Treasures Pavilion.

Wu Qingquan was lying on the bed. He had just taken a healing pill and was very weak at the moment. Footsteps were heard coming from outside.

A steward in a green robe pushed the door open and ran in in a panic.

“What are you panicking for?” Wu Qingquan sat up and shouted coldly.

The steward in a green robe walked in and said, “Master, something bad has happened.”

“What is it?” Wu Qingquan was stunned for a moment, then he said seriously, “Didn’t I ask Tian Hu to catch that little b*stard? Didn’t he catch him?”

“Yes, Master. Captain Tian Hu didn’t catch him. Instead, many of his subordinates were injured,” the steward answered hurriedly.

Just as he was about to tell the whole story, he was interrupted by Wu Qingquan’s laughter.

A cold look flashed across Wu Qingquan’s face. “I gave him an easy way, but he wanted to take the hard way instead. What he did to me was enough reason for him to be killed, yet he even injured the Dragon Prestige Army. He’s just courting death.”

“Master, that’s not it!”

The green-robed steward hurriedly explained, “That master, whose name is Ou Yangming, has a strong background. He seems to be related to the Dragons. After he injured the Dragon Prestige Army, the island master went there but didn’t blame him. Instead, the island master killed Tian Hu and said that he wanted to settle accounts with you!”

“What?!” Wu Qingquan jumped up from the bed and said in disbelief, “Are you kidding me? After he injured the Dragon Prestige Army, not only did the island master not blame him, but he also wanted to settle accounts with me?”

“Master, I’m not kidding. This news came from our staff in the East City Square. Ou Yangming is still smithing magic weapons there now,” the steward said with a bitter face.

“Impossible! That’s absolutely impossible! The Dragon Prestige Army’s dignity can’t be violated. Besides, I’m a famous smithing master of Hidden Dragons Island. How could the island master find trouble with me?

“There must be a mistake!” Wu Qingquan could not accept this answer.

All of a sudden, the sound of orderly footsteps could be heard coming from outside the door. It was followed by a cold shout. “Wu Qingquan hurt a friend of the Dragons on the Hidden Dragon Island and colluded with the Dragon Prestige Army to frame him. The matter is true. Bring him to prison and wait for the island master’s instructions. Take the rest under control too.”

The door was kicked open with a clang. A dozen black-armored half-drakonids rushed in and held Wu Qingquan down.

Wu Qingquan looked at the Ruler who walked in from outside the door and shouted aggrievedly, “General, I was wronged.”

The general of the Dragon Prestige Army glanced at Wu Qingquan coldly. If it was before, he would have shown some respect for this master, but it was completely unnecessary at the moment.

He knew the governor’s plan. Wu Qingquan would have no chance to turn the tables. A cold light flashed in his eyes as he ignored Wu Qingquan’s intention and shouted, “Take him away!”

“Impossible! Impossible! You can’t arrest me!

“I’m a blacksmith master, I’m…”

Wu Qingquan shouted loudly, but he was slapped.

No one cared about his identity as a blacksmith master. No one cared about this poor wretch. Even the people from the 10,000 Treasures Pavilion did not show up.

Wu Qingquan knew that he had been abandoned by everyone. From the moment he made his move on Ou Yangming, the outcome had become a foregone conclusion.

The East City Square was in full swing. Numerous people gathered, and the long line of people waiting eagerly was like a once-in-a-century grand meeting.

Ou Yangming held on for 7 whole days before he finally breathed a sigh of relief. His Long Feather Band was already filled with many interspatial bags with plenty of materials inside.

He had only rested a few times throughout, and he became more familiar with using his fire. His smithing techniques also became more precise.

The appearance of Good Grade and High Grade items one after another bore witness to Ou Yangming’s glorious achievements. In the end, ordinary magic weapons hardly appeared because everyone treasured their opportunity and would not waste it on low-level materials.

After 7 days, the birth of the first Fine Grade magic weapon caused another sensation. Such a treasure had not appeared here for more than 100 years.

Ou Yangming’s name had spread throughout the entire island within the week. He had even become the greatest celebrity among the nearby stars.
