Free Web NovelChapter 1429: Chapter 1515: Holding Back Internal Injuries
"Then come on!"
Su Xuan thought he should take a look to see if there were any good weapons!
"Ah..." The next moment, he saw the legendary Ximen Chuixue suddenly hit and sent flying back, landing with a thud on his car’s hood, compressing it flat due to the impact.
"Uh, isn’t Ximen Chuixue way too fragile!" freewёbnoνel.com
Su Xuan felt a bit awkward. Just hearing this name, he thought Ximen must be a master; after all, his family had been crafting swords for generations, so Su Xuan just gave a casual kick, never expecting Ximen Chuixue to be so easily knocked out.
"Pfft..."
Mo Qingqiu watched this scene, feeling like laughing but a bit embarrassed too, almost holding back an internal injury.
Seeing Ximen Chuixue in such a sorry state, it really did make things a bit awkward.
Su Xuan walked over to Ximen Chuixue’s side, helped him up, and said awkwardly.
"Are you okay?"
At this moment, Ximen Chuixue was even more embarrassed, and he looked at Su Xuan, saying weakly.
"How are you so strong?"
Honestly, Su Xuan thought Ximen Chuixue’s strength was just too overpowering. Yet, he was kicked flying by him.
"Kid, let me tell you, I really have nothing to do with Mo Qingqiu, you fool. I have a girlfriend, chase the girl if you want, but don’t randomly challenge others to duels."
Su Xuan didn’t have any serious distaste for this guy, at least he found him easier on the eyes.
"You’re really not involved with Qingqiu!"
Ximen Chuixue said excitedly.
"Nonsense, I have a girlfriend!"
Su Xuan pouted, thinking to himself it’s best not to mess with girls anymore, it’s already too much to keep track of. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
"That’s great! Brother, you know I’ve been so relieved hearing you say that. You’re so handsome, in front of you, I feel so insecure. Brother, let me treat you to a meal!"
"..."
Su Xuan was speechless, looking at this fellow, thinking what kind of mindset does this guy have, wanting to treat him to a meal.
Mo Qingqiu was also speechless. This guy just sticks around like a plaster, impossible to shake off.
"Brother, after the meal, I’ll take you to my place. I can’t regret it, today I will gift you a treasure sword, as they say, a treasure sword for a hero!"
Knowing that Su Xuan and Mo Qingqiu really had nothing to do with each other, Ximen Chuixue’s impression of Su Xuan was overwhelmingly good. Just like he said, if Su Xuan were his rival in love, that’d be awkward.
"Uh, alright then. Kid, seeing how well you behave, I’ll put in a good word for you someday!"
Su Xuan said with a cheeky look at Mo Qingqiu, then added another line.
"Great beauty, actually, Brother Ximen is quite a good person, consider it!"
"..."
Mo Qingqiu was utterly speechless, thinking, you jerk, you’re such a darn troublemaker! Can’t you stop messing with me?
Ximen Chuixue drove ahead, while Su Xuan followed behind. Actually, Su Xuan really wanted to see if Ximen Chuixue’s home had any good weapons; even though it wasn’t a pressing need, Su Xuan simply liked playing with swords, it was a hobby.
Since Ximen Chuixue’s house was involved in sword making, it was not in the urban area but built alongside hills and water, exuding a charm that felt like a sword furnace.
Under the guidance of Ximen Chuixue, as Su Xuan entered the Ximen Family, he couldn’t help but say it truly resembled a sword furnace. Different kinds of swords filled the courtyard, some models, some real, like a forest of swords, truly giving the impression of entering a martial arts family.
It was actually Su Xuan’s first time in such a place, and he was curious, seeing how this traditional swordsmith still remained in an age when firearms had replaced cold weapons.
Actually, Huaxia isn’t short of sword makers, but most are now machine-made, industrialized factory products with high efficiency and good appearance, available on Taobao. Those costing dozens of yuan are usually machine forged, shiny on the outside, empty inside.
"Ximen, do you know how to forge swords?"
Su Xuan was curious since he had only seen such sword-forging sects in books; this was his first time seeing a real sword-forging place, feeling quite intrigued.
"My skills aren’t quite there yet, brother, let me take you to watch my father and grandpa forge swords!"
At this moment, Ximen Chuixue led Su Xuan to the backyard, where Su Xuan could hear the clanging sounds of iron being hammered, mixed with the sounds of streams and birds under the empty mountain, creating a pleasant feeling.
As long as Ximen Chuixue was sure Su Xuan had nothing to do with Mo Qingqiu, his attitude towards Su Xuan changed completely, and he was thrilled that Su Xuan agreed to say good things for him.
Soon, following Ximen Chuixue, they came to a corridor where Su Xuan noticed a pavilion not far away. In the pavilion, neither of the two men wore shirts; one held fire tongs and a hammer, the other rhythmically swinging the hammer.
"Tempered into steel, this type of sword-forging method is rare nowadays!"
Su Xuan smiled faintly. In truth, this method is the truly primitive one. The treasure swords forged this way are real treasure swords, not easily chipped.
Su Xuan didn’t walk over, instead standing on the corridor, watching from a distance, which was a sign of respect for the swordsmiths. Lu Li stood afar watching, while snowflakes fell continuously from the sky. As the snowflakes fluttered down, Su Xuan looked skyward, gazing at the gray sky, giving a gentle sigh.
Standing there for more than an hour, Su Xuan noted that the father and son duo hardly paused; the craftsmanship born from this was undoubtedly of high-quality, surely not something to be bought for mere ten yuan.
At this time, it seemed Ximen Chuixue’s father and grandfather also stopped their work. When they came over and first saw Su Xuan, they immediately had a bright-eyed feeling.
They saw Su Xuan at first glance, feeling as though they were witnessing the most handsome sword. The aura of gentlemanliness representative of a sword emanating from Su Xuan earned their appreciation and admiration.
"Dad, you finally finished hammering; I almost fell asleep!"
At this time, Ximen Chuixue came out of the pavilion, looking at his father and grandfather.
"Chuixue, who is this?"
Ximen Chuixue’s grandfather looked at Su Xuan, a bit surprised, thinking that the dogs of friends his grandson usually hung out with were never to his liking, never expecting this time, there came someone so pleasing to the eye.
