Translator: Silavin Not only did he know information about Master Lu Ban and the Lu Ban Sect, but he also seemed quite knowledgeable about the current state of the Gongshu Clan. The Green-Robed Hermit was experiencing no small amount of shock at this moment. He no longer viewed Qin Yichen as a mere youth. It seemed that ever since Qin Yichen had appeared, the initiative had always been in Qin Yichen’s hands, while he himself had been led by the nose. “Please trouble yourself to announce that Qin Yichen, the 32nd Successor of the Lu Ban Sect, has come to seek an audience with the Gongshu Clan!” As he spoke, Qin Yichen took out the hammer head he had obtained in the Twilight Tower from his Space Ring. The shape of this hammer head was different from the hammers of the present world. It was covered with interlacing patterns that, though numerous, were not chaotic, but rather gave a feeling of natural perfection. “Is this… the Master Craftsman’s Hammer?” When his gaze fell upon this hammer head, the Green-Robed Hermit’s pupils suddenly dilated, and he could no longer contain his shock as he blurted out. As a member of the Gongshu Clan, how could he not recognise the Master Craftsman’s Hammer that represented Lu Ban, the Ancestor of Craftsmen? It should be known that in the ancestral shrine of the Gongshu Clan, a model of the Master Craftsman’s Hammer was enshrined in the highest position. He naturally recognised the identity of this hammer head at first glance. The Master Craftsman’s Hammer was not in the possession of the Gongshu Clan, but was held by the Sect Master of the Lu Ban Sect. Therefore, the identity of the youth before him was obvious. The Successor of the Lu Ban Sect! “Please wait here for a moment, Sir. I will go to report immediately!” With that, the Green-Robed Hermit hurriedly left the bamboo pavilion and disappeared into the mist outside. Although Qin Yichen tried to use his Spiritual Energy to detect his whereabouts, it was blocked by the mist. “Huuu… finally…” He exhaled, not in a hurry, and began to appreciate some of the Green-Robed Hermit’s works in the bamboo pavilion. It had to be said that the Green-Robed Hermit’s craftsmanship was exquisite. Although his works lacked Spirituality, they were still vivid and lifelike. Some animal models were especially realistic. Qin Yichen felt ashamed. Although he had received the inheritance of the Lu Ban Sect and had practiced his craftsmanship, when it came down to it, he was not even comparable to a fraction of the Green-Robed Hermit in terms of skill. After all, he had not received the Lu Ban Sect inheritance for long, and with numerous matters tying him down, he had not been able to calm his mind and properly study. His coming to the Gongshu Clan was, first, to gain their support, and second, to inquire about the Craftsman Heart. Although he had received the inheritance of the Lu Ban Sect, he lacked the Craftsman Heart, making learning quite difficult. If he had the Craftsman Heart to assist him, it would undoubtedly be like adding wings to a tiger. “Who are you? Why are you here at Uncle Qingshan’s place?” Just as Qin Yichen was sighing, a voice as pleasant as an oriole sounded by his ear. He turned his head and saw a little girl in a light-yellow dress walking into the bamboo pavilion. The girl was only about fourteen or fifteen years old. At this moment, she was standing at the entrance of the bamboo pavilion, staring fixedly at Qin Yichen. Her jet-black large eyes appeared extremely lively, her skin was delicately crafted like jade, and her features were still somewhat immature. On her tender earlobes hung a pair of green jade pendants, which made a light tinkling sound as they swayed, like a moving melody played by mountain springs and reefs, adding a touch of spiritual charm to her. Standing among the bamboo groves, she looked like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world. During the time Qin Yichen was observing her, the girl walked into the pavilion. She did not seem afraid of strangers; seeing Qin Yichen, a stranger, her eyes even revealed a hint of curiosity. “You… are not from my Clan.” The girl circled around Qin Yichen once, finally standing in front of him, as her light voice came from her mouth. “En.” Looking at the fairy-like girl before him, Qin Yichen’s lips curved into a shallow arc as he nodded. In this girl’s eyes, he saw innocence, and in her pupils, there was not a trace of impurity. It was clear to the bottom. “So, you’re from the outside world?” Hearing his answer, the girl’s eyes lit up, her eyeballs turned, and she looked at Qin Yichen as if she were examining a rare animal. “You… take me out of here!” Then, she raised her small head, with an arrogant expression, and ordered Qin Yichen in a commanding tone. “Uh…” Qin Yichen blinked, completely unable to react. But soon, he understood. This girl should be a member of the Gongshu Clan, trapped in this Grand Array for years, wanting to go out and play, which was quite normal. So, that’s why she appeared here. Probably, she regularly pestered the Green-Robed Hermit to take her out. “What, didn’t you hear what I said?” Seeing Qin Yichen’s lack of response, the girl stomped her foot angrily. She really, really wanted to go out and see the outside world… “Xiao Huang!” Following her words, there came a whistling sound, and a large bird descended from the sky, which then miraculously shrunk before Qin Yichen’s eyes and landed on the girl’s shoulder. “If you don’t take me out, I’ll have Xiao Huang peck you!” The girl put one hand on her hip and pointed at Qin Yichen with the other, threatening him. However, her tender voice really lacked any threatening power. “Xiao Huang?” Qin Yichen’s gaze fell on the small bird on her shoulder. Soon, he discovered that the feathers on this bird were actually made of wood! Although made of wood, they were lifelike and possessed Spirituality. Like its owner, it tilted its head, curiously examining Qin Yichen. “A Puppet?” Qin Yichen’s heart stirred, and after remembering that this was the Gongshu Clan, it should have been expected. As the Lu Ban Descendants, the Gongshu Clan could easily make such things. However, the fact that the bird on the girl’s shoulder could change its size was truly ingenious. “How annoying, are you made of wood?” Qin Yichen’s attitude made the girl angry. ” Xiao Huang, teach him a lesson!” Coo coo… The bird on her shoulder let out a few low cries, spread its wings, and flew towards Qin Yichen. Chirp! The seemingly cute little bird moved extremely fast. Before Qin Yichen could react, he felt a pain on his shoulder, and when he looked again, the bird had already returned to the girl’s shoulder. However, on its talons, there were now several strips of cloth. Seeing Qin Yichen look over, the bird raised its head at him in a Human-like manner, with a smug expression that was exactly like its owner’s. Looking at the few bloody marks on his shoulder, Qin Yichen was startled. [This bird must have held back!] He could feel that his defence was completely ineffective against its talons. The bloody marks on his shoulder were the best evidence.
