YM778.TV Chapter 171
"Finally gathered?" Lu Qing was equally surprised. "Where are the materials?"
"I\'ve already had them brought here."
"No need to trouble yourself, I need to prepare these materials. Lord Wei, there should be a pill room in the mansion, right? I\'d like to borrow it."
"Yes, of course. Shall I have the materials sent to the pill room?"
"That will do, thank you."
After Wei Xinghe left, old doctor Chen asked, "Ah Qing, what materials did you ask Lord Wei to find?"
"Some materials for preparing potions, related to forging," Lu Qing replied.
The old doctor nodded and didn\'t continue asking. He knew Lu Qing had received a mysterious inheritance and was used to him occasionally coming up with some strange things."Master, after I prepare the potion, I need to go to the iron workshop, so I might be back late," Lu Qing said.
"Alright, be careful when you go out and stay safe," the old doctor cautioned.
The previous two days, the old doctor and Wei Shanhai went out to collect herbs and only learned upon returning that there had been an assassination attempt at the mansion.
Wei Shanhai was furious and almost went to confront the Seven Kill Tower for an explanation.
The old doctor, hearing the discussions about the cloth-clad youth\'s words regarding the assassination order, was also worried about Lu Qing\'s situation.
However, he knew that one shouldn\'t stop eating for fear of choking. They couldn\'t just stay cooped up in the Wei mansion because of a possible assassination.
Moreover, the old doctor knew Lu Qing\'s character. Since he thought it was safe to go out, he must be confident in ensuring his own safety.
"I understand, Master. I\'ll give you a surprise when I get back."
Lu Qing tidied up and headed to the pill room in the Wei mansion.
Upon arrival, he saw the materials Wei Xinghe had sent, checked them, and nodded in satisfaction. These materials were almost exactly what he needed; any minor discrepancies wouldn\'t affect the potion preparation.
This was also due to the detailed material list he had given Wei Xinghe, which included not only the names but also the characteristics of the materials.
Otherwise, just having the names wouldn\'t have been enough to gather everything so easily. After all, many materials in Lu Qing\'s inheritance still used names from tens of thousands of years ago.
Who knew if the names had changed over such a long time? But while names might change, the characteristics of the materials wouldn\'t.
Therefore, Lu Qing was able to gather the materials smoothly.
"Lord Wei, I\'m going to prepare a special potion with these materials. Please ensure no one disturbs me," Lu Qing said.
"Rest assured, Young Master Lu. I will personally ensure no one disturbs you," Wei Xinghe said solemnly.
Since Lu Qing had saved Wei Zian\'s life again and after listening to the conversation between the cloth-clad youth and "Tian Gu," Wei Xinghe\'s respect for Lu Qing had grown significantly.
"Thank you, Lord Wei."
Lu Qing entered the pill room, closed the door, and began focusing on preparing the potion.
Half an hour later, Lu Qing looked at the fiery red potion emitting wisps of heat in front of him and showed a hint of satisfaction.
Despite having used his abilities multiple times to simulate and practice preparing the Flaming Liquid in his mind, this was his first time actually doing it.
Unexpectedly, he succeeded on the first try, a pleasant surprise.
Originally, he had asked Wei Xinghe to prepare more materials for practice.
However, not wanting to waste the remaining materials, Lu Qing continued preparing.
After another half an hour, Lu Qing opened the door of the pill room and walked out.
"Young Master Lu, how did it go?" Wei Xinghe immediately approached.
"The potion has been successfully prepared. Lord Wei, I need to go to the Heartforge Workshop next. I won\'t be back for lunch, so no need to prepare my portion."
"Is Young Master Lu going to the Heartforge Workshop to forge your weapon?"
Wei Xinghe recalled what the chief steward had mentioned and couldn\'t help but ask.
"Yes, I have an appointment with Master Lin at the Heartforge Workshop to use his forge for the next few days."
Wei Xinghe hesitated for a moment and said, "Young Master Lu, may I accompany you to observe?"
"Of course. Lord Wei, are you interested in forging as well?" Lu Qing was a bit surprised.
"To be honest, I\'ve heard the chief steward say that you are highly skilled in forging, with the demeanor of a master. I\'ve never had the chance to see a master forge, so I\'m naturally very interested," Wei Xinghe said frankly.
"The chief steward overpraised me. I just have some insights into forging, not deserving of the title of master. However, if Lord Wei is interested, it would be my honor," Lu Qing replied.
With Lu Qing\'s permission, Wei Xinghe was quite excited and immediately made arrangements.
Lu Qing also went back to Bamboo Grove Courtyard to fetch a wooden box, then took the smallest piece of Heaven\'s Meteorite Iron from his Spatial Qi Bag and placed it inside.
He then left the courtyard with the wooden box and, along with Wei Xinghe, headed to the Heartforge Workshop.
"Young Master Lu, you\'ve arrived."
At the Heartforge Workshop, Master Lin and his apprentices were already waiting respectfully for Lu Qing.
It turned out that while Lu Qing went back to fetch something, Wei Xinghe had sent someone ahead to notify the Heartforge Workshop.
Knowing that Lu Qing was finally coming to forge his weapon, Master Lin was overjoyed.
He immediately temporarily closed the entire workshop and led his apprentices to wait respectfully for Lu Qing\'s arrival.
"Master Lin, I need to trouble you again this time to borrow your forge," Lu Qing said politely.
"No trouble at all!" Master Lin quickly replied. "It\'s an honor for our workshop to have you, Young Master Lu!"
Master Lin now had immense respect for Lu Qing. A few days ago, while helping to polish the Thousand-Folded Sword Embryo that Lu Qing had forged, he was increasingly astonished.
That sword embryo was forged to perfection by Lu Qing, flawless and without a single impurity, truly a masterpiece.
Seeing this made Master Lin deeply impressed and fascinated.
So even though Wei Xinghe accompanied him this time, Master Lin wasn\'t surprised at all.
In Master Lin\'s view, Lu Qing\'s forging skills, reaching a master level, fully deserved such attention.
The group entered the Heartforge Workshop.
"Young Master Lu, will you be using Furnace No. 1 again?" Master Lin asked eagerly.
"Yes, I used it once before and got used to it, so I\'ll use it again," Lu Qing nodded.
"Let me light the furnace for you."
Master Lin eagerly went to the bellows, pulling hard, and the flames roared, heat waves rolling.
"Young Master Lu, please."
Master Lin\'s respectful manner was like that of a humble apprentice.
"Thank you."
Lu Qing did not refuse. He understood Master Lin\'s intention was to observe his forging techniques up close.
He didn\'t mind; if Master Lin could gain some insight, it would be his good fortune.
Lu Qing placed the wooden box down, opened it, and took out the Heaven\'s Meteorite Iron.
When Master Lin saw the meteorite iron, he was first stunned, then his eyes gradually widened.
