"Yes, yes, after I returned to the room, I passed out when my eyes went dark, and when I got up, the sword disappeared." Li Haoran replied hastily.

Li Xiaodi sat beside her, her pretty face was also covered with frost, obviously she was extremely dissatisfied with someone entering her room.

"First figure out whether the opponent's target is the second lady or the sword, then it will be easier to find the enemy." The head of the law enforcement hall said coldly.

All the elders nodded one after another. Obviously, it's okay to lose the long sword, but if the opponent's target is the second lady, then there will be a problem!

At this moment, a disciple of the Li family walked in.

"Reporting to the hall master and the elders, the long sword in Li Yi's hand also disappeared inexplicably!"

"Where are the others?" A cold look flashed in the eyes of the head of the Law Enforcement Hall.

"Li Xuan and Li Zicheng are not clear, but it is said that some people have seen that they have changed their sabers, and they don't know if they lost it."

"The saber has been replaced..." The head of the Law Enforcement Hall looked even colder, "That is to say, all five long swords have disappeared now? What is the opponent's goal?!"

The elder Li's family frowned, "The second-grade long sword is not worth much, and it is not worth working so hard. It is also possible that it is a disguise to cover up my whereabouts."

The head of the law enforcement hall nodded: "It is very possible that the five long swords are all made of the same material, and there are still some left in the family treasure house. If the other party's goal is this kind of material, then it is very likely to enter the family treasure house."

The elders of the Li family were shocked: "The family treasure house? I'll go and have a look."

"no need."

A cold voice interrupted everyone's conversation. Everyone looked up and was shocked. The person who was bullying him was the former head of the Li family, Li Bai.

"Homeowner."

"Homeowner."

Everyone respectfully said.

"No need. I have abdicated for so many years." Li Bai waved his hand, "I already know about that person, that's all."

"My lord, I don't know the strength of this person, and he may pose a threat to the family. I think it's better to find out the subtleties." The head of the Law Enforcement Hall said seriously.

Li Bai glanced at him, "You are still so persistent."

"I already understand that person's strength." Li Bai pointed to his body.

Only then did everyone realize that Li Bai's body didn't seem to be that healthy, and he seemed to be injured, and they were shocked: "This...could it be?"

Li Bai smiled wryly, "A move... I didn't even follow up with a move."

Everyone felt a burst of horror in an instant.

What a joke!

Didn't make any moves?The strength of the previous Patriarch was actually at the peak of Qingyun Yichang.After so many years of accumulation, although Emi still has a breakthrough in the second change of Qingyun, it is definitely not weaker than the second change of Qingyun. With such strength, he didn't even catch a single move?

"How... is this possible? Could it be the person who built the family?" The elder Li's family took a breath and asked in disbelief.

Li Bai shook his head, "Not from the Jian family, but he visited the Jian family once. He is still wanted."

Everyone was stunned, and instantly understood who it was.

That night, he broke into Jianfu.The person who fought against the senior on the third floor of Jiange?

"Didn't he get seriously injured by that senior?" the head of the Law Enforcement Hall asked doubtfully.

Li Bai sneered: "Obviously, we were deceived by Jianjia again. The opponent's strength may not be injured, or it may only be slightly injured. This strength must not be taken lightly."

"Of course, it's not a bad thing for us."

"That man went to build a house once, and he suffered numerous casualties, and finally retreated safely. There was no disturbance. Similarly, he came to my Li family, but unexpectedly did not kill anyone. Instead, he helped Li Yi break through to the late stage of Ning Hai, and rescued Li Yi. Li Xuan and Li Zicheng died, and then left quietly without causing any disturbance."

When Li Bai said this, he said indifferently: "My guess is that he has no malice towards the Li family, and he obviously takes the soft rather than the strong. The Jian family's tough attitude angered him, and that's why he ended up with countless casualties. Once, for the Li family, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, so give up the investigation."

"No matter what the other party wants to collect, it has obviously been collected. There is no need to anger the other party for some insignificant things. Everything, the safety of the Li family disciples is the first key point."

"Yes!" the crowd responded.

Li Bai smiled lightly, then left again and returned to the treasure house.

Everything is the same as before.

When Xia Lin returned home, it was in the afternoon, and Huo Jian had been waiting in the room for a long time.

"Have you got it?" Huo Jian asked.

"Ah."

Xia Lin threw away the piece of black iron and five long swords, and put them on the table.

Huo Jian was sweating profusely, "You even got these five swords?"

Xia Lin nodded, "Of course, such a small piece is probably not enough for an epee, so I might as well get it together. I think it can be smelted by the craftsman."

Huo Jian looked at him strangely: "Are you sure you didn't steal it?"

Xia Lin pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Of course not, I paid you, um, in exchange."

Huo Jian shook his head. He hasn't heard the news of the chaos in the Li family, so it shouldn't cause too much disturbance, "Come on, I've already contacted a craftsman. Although I can only make second-grade Xuanbao, it should be able to meet your needs. gone."

Then the two went out, and Huo Jian led him around for a long time, until they reached the southern part of the city, before stopping in a small shop.

The small shop is not big, but there are some exquisite long swords inside, all second-grade mysterious treasures, the quality is first-class, and they are the favorite weapons of Ning Haijing.

"Good guy, mass production, how much profit is this?" Xia Lin exclaimed.

Huo Jian said with a smile: "It is precisely because of the low grade that it can be mass-produced. The higher the grade, the more expensive the materials and the more difficult the production. It is not easy to produce one."

Xia Lin nodded, deeply convinced.

The owner of the small shop is a middle-aged man in his 40s with a beard and a bit of vicissitudes. Of course, more importantly, his strength has changed from Qingyun to Qingyun.

"A craftsman who has changed from Qingyun." Xia Lin smiled secretly, no wonder he was able to open a shop safely without taking refuge in other forces.

"Chen Chen, long time no see." Huo Jian smiled.

Chen Chen smiled calmly, "You boy, it's not good every time you come here. You messed up the Jianfu competition two days ago, are you okay?"

Huo Jian shook his head: "Don't worry, the injury is slowly recovering."

Chen Chen smiled and said, "That's good, tell me, what are you looking for me this time?"

After Chen Chen finished speaking, he looked at Xia Lin.

Huo Jian introduced it to both parties, and at the same time explained that Xia Lin needs to forge a second-grade epee.

"Epee sword?" Chen Chen frowned slightly. "There are relatively few people who make this thing. I don't have much material about epee swords here. I'm afraid I have to go out and collect them."

"No need." Xia Lin smiled lightly, "I brought the things."

After finishing speaking, Xia Lin put the black iron and five long swords in front of him, Chen Chen opened it with some doubts, and was startled, "Is this Qingling black iron?"

"Qingling Xuantie?" Xia Lin and Huo Jian were taken aback for a moment.

"That's right, light spirit black iron, a very special kind of black iron. It is so light that you can almost ignore its weight and can transmit any force without damage. The body is very strong. Many third-grade long swords are made of It was made of Qingling black iron. Unfortunately, my grade has not yet arrived." Chen Chen shook his head with some regret, and continued: "Qingling black iron is made of second grade... No, what you want to make is not a long sword, but a heavy sword ?!"

Chen Chen said with some surprise, "Qingling Xuantie is only used for long swords, and it cannot be used to make heavy swords at all."

Xia Lin shrugged: "Just make me an epee according to the standard of long swords."

"what?"

Chen Chen was obviously at a loss.

Xia Lin explained: "What I need is an epee. However, I don't need its power. What I need is that it can withstand other external forces without collapsing. Obviously, ordinary long swords can't do that. so--"

Xia Lin pushed the piece of black iron and five long swords in front of him, "This is why we are looking for you."

Chen Chen was obviously taken aback, this was the first time he heard such a strange need.Epee does not consider weight, is it still an epee?

Huo Jian said from the side: "The appearance of the epee can withstand a strong external force. As far as these two requirements are concerned, I think you should have no problem."

"Of course." Chen Chen said as a matter of course: "It's just that it's strange. There is no problem with the production. I will redesign it. After two days, you can come here and get it."

"Okay, thank you very much." Xia Lin said with a smile.

"It's okay, Huo Jian's friend is also my friend of Chen Chen's." Chen Chen nodded, then turned around and started busying with the things needed for the epee.

Xia Lin was stunned.

Huo Jian couldn't help laughing when he saw this, "It's good to get used to it, as long as he studies this aspect, he will be a little crazy."

Xia Lin suddenly realized, technical nerd, um, understandable.

The two walked out of the small shop. Before going out, they heard Chen Chen muttering, "Strange, remember that these swords are not in Li's house?"

Xia Lin immediately blushed.

On the way back, Xia Lin asked Huo Jian, "Can he believe it?"

"Yes." Huo Jian nodded, "There is no problem at all with the friendship of fate. In terms of confidentiality, let alone a friend, even if it is an ordinary customer, the Jian family should not even think about knowing anything from him."

"That's good." Xia Lin understood, and then asked Huo Jian: "About the remuneration?"

Huo Jian said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about these things. This guy owes me a lot. If I ask him to make something, he is happy to repay the favor. After two days, just come and get the sword."

"En." Xia Lin was not hypocritical.

Two days was a long time, and everyone was naturally not idle.

After Ye Jian mastered the No.13 style of the Liuyun swordsmanship, Xia Lin called him into the courtyard, and taught him the No.14 and No.15 styles of the Liuyun swordsmanship again. (to be continued..)
