Translator: Silavin Looking at the small bird that appeared harmless, Qin Yichen could not help but have a corner of his mouth twitch. His physical body, which he took pride in, and was capable of contending with Mid Stage Martial Kings, was vulnerable before it. [Truly worthy of being someone from the Gongshu Clan…] Qin Yichen muttered softly in his heart, shaking his head slightly. Seeing this wooden bird, it was not hard to see that this little girl probably held a considerable position within the Gongshu Clan. If he took her out, with her personality, she would likely cause significant trouble for the Gongshu Clan. “Haven’t you suffered enough yet?” Seeing Qin Yichen shake his head, the young girl frowned her delicate eyebrows, pouting with dissatisfaction. “Xiao Huang!” Following the little girl’s call, the wooden bird on her shoulder spread its wings, again appearing ready to attack. “Are you serious…” Qin Yichen’s mouth twitched, and a feeling of inexplicable grief rose in his heart. He, the dignified Successor of the Lu Ban Sect, was actually being threatened by a mere wooden bird! If Master Lu Ban knew about this, wouldn’t he get so angry that he’d come back to life just to give Qin Yichen a good beating? “Zhiyi, don’t be rude!” Just as the little girl wanted to make Qin Yichen suffer a bit more, Qinshan’s reprimand suddenly rang out, and his figure also flashed in front of the bamboo pavilion. Seeing Qingshan, the little girl stuck out her tongue, reluctantly standing aside. “Sir, the Patriarch invites you.” The man’s attitude toward Qin Yichen was undoubtedly much better. He cupped his hands slightly and said. “Sir?” Upon hearing this form of address, a surprised expression flashed in the little girl’s eyes. This title ‘Sir’ was used in the Gongshu Clan to address those whose achievements in Crafting was higher than one’s own. Within the Gongshu Clan, only those Elders whose achievements were higher than Qinshan would be addressed by him as ‘Sir’. She had never seen him refer to anyone else but those Elders as ‘Sir’ before. And now, he was actually addressed this young man who, did not look much older than herself, as ‘Sir’ Whoosh! After he finished speaking, Qingshan took out a wooden token, flung his arm, and threw it toward the top of the bamboo pavilion. The wooden token shot out, and at about one meter above the bamboo pavilion, it suddenly disappeared. Hum… As the wooden token disappeared, ripples spread in that area of space, as if the wooden token was like a pebble thrown into a lake. Then Qin Yichen felt a terrifying spatial fluctuation spread out from the space above the bamboo pavilion. Shh… When this terrifying spatial fluctuation reached its peak, in midair, a crack slowly tore open the space. After a while, this crack transformed into a door, stabilizing in midair. “Sir, please.” After the door had stabilized, Qingshan said to Qin Yichen, with a rather respectful tone. The Successor of the Lu Ban Sect – after Qingshan had notified the Patriarch, the Patriarch got excited. If it were not for some Elders having doubts, the Patriarch would have personally run down to welcome him in by now. Qin Yichen was not too surprised by this scene. In the past, though not here, he had been welcomed by them in a similar fashion. He nodded, his feet gently stepped, and his figure soared into the sky, instantly darting into the door. Whoosh! After entering the door, Qin Yichen only felt a blur before his eyes, and the scene in front of him had undergone a tremendous change. The bamboo pavilion had disappeared. In front of him was a vast blue sky, with occasional light breezes coming by. Below him was a huge plain, upon which stood numerous elegant houses. “Truly worthy of being the Gongshu Clan…” Qin Yichen narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured. This kind place was almost as though another world had been created. Although the area was not as vast as the continent, the one who had created it certainly possessed skills that were enough to astonish the world. Moreover, perhaps because the area was smaller than the outside continent, the World Energy in this space was several times stronger than outside. If one cultivated here, their progress would probably be twice as fast as in the outside world. “Who is he?” “How did he get into our Clan’s territory?” The spatial fluctuation caused by Qin Yichen’s appearance alerted many Gongshu Clansmen below. Seeing an unfamiliar face, many people’s eyes were filled with suspicion. Some even had a trace of discontent in their eyes. After all, a mere outsider had actually intruded into their Clan’s territory! But when they saw Qingshan and the little girl who appeared afterward, they quickly withdrew their gazes and slightly lowered their heads in respect. Boom! Just as the three appeared, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the distant horizon. Then, in Qin Yichen’s somewhat surprised gaze, a mass of dark clouds surged toward them. “A flying warship?” Qin Yichen narrowed his eyes slightly. A moment later, his pupils suddenly contracted. That approaching cloud was actually a wooden warship. This wooden warship came with a rumbling sound, and finally slowly stopped in front of the three. “Sir, please board the ship.” Qinshan made a gesture to invite Qin Yichen. Then, as soon as he finished speaking, the wooden warship suddenly split open a crack, and the end of that crack led directly to the top of the ship. Seeing this, Qin Yichen did not hesitate. He darted onto the huge wooden warship. After entering the warship, Qin Yichen discovered that it was extremely large. Standing inside made one feel particularly small. Moreover, on both sides of this warship, there were subtle Yuan Energy fluctuations. [Those must be where the warship’s Arrays are located.] Boom! After all three had entered the warship, it shook, then transformed into a dark cloud, quickly darting toward the depths of the Gongshu Clan. At this moment, the ordinary Gongshu Clansmen below had been completely shocked for words. Qinshan, whose status was comparable to that of an Elder, actually showed such respect to that unfamiliar young man! And that warship, which only Elders of the Clan had the privilege to ride in, was now sent to pick him up. “Who exactly is that young man?” Instantly, a wave of speculative voices rose, and countless members looked at each other in bewilderment. “Sir, the Patriarch and various Elders are already waiting in the Clan Hall.” Qinshan said to Qin Yichen, but there was hesitation in his words. “En.” Qin Yichen nodded. He naturally knew what Qingshan wanted to say. The Gongshu Clan had been hidden from the world for countless years. The sudden appearance of someone holding the Master Craftsman’s Hammer, claiming to be the Successor of the Lu Ban Sect. Surely many in the Clan would not believe it to be true. Qin Yichen did not say much either. Although his current mastery over the Da of Crafting might not even match many ordinary members of the Gongshu Clan, as the saying goes, ‘true gold fears no fire’. He did not have the slightest uneasiness about this visit.
