Chapter 691 - 691 651 The Callous Pavilion Master_1

691: Chapter 651: The Callous Pavilion Master_1 691: Chapter 651: The Callous Pavilion Master_1 Zhan Tianyu and his group had just returned to the Zhan Residence when Liang Danian led his men over immediately afterward.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the Zhan Residence, Liang Danian was stopped by someone.

“What brings you here to visit?”

Liang Danian, looking at the other party, immediately scolded, “Don’t you know who I am?

And you still ask me what brings me here!

Hurry up and open the gate for me!”

The guard was intimidated by his imposing manner and could only obediently open the gate.

Both guards recognized Liang Danian and knew that he was a man of high repute in Dubhe City, not someone to be trifled with.

Liang Danian led his men into the Zhan Residence, just in time to run into Zhan Tianheng.

Seeing Liang Danian, Zhan Tianheng quickly walked over.

“Smithy Master Liang, what brings you to visit our Zhan family today, out of the blue?”

Liang Danian offered an embarrassed smile, “I’m here to find Zhan Tianyu, has he returned?”

“He should be back, I suppose.

He’s currently with a few guests and is not dealing with family affairs for the moment.

If you have something to discuss, you can talk to me.”

Liang Danian shook his head slightly, “That won’t be necessary, I’m specifically here for him.”

“Alright then, he is in the west courtyard, go find him there.”

Having said that, Zhan Tianheng walked out of the Zhan Residence.

Liang Danian took a deep breath, his brain still rapidly considering how to approach the conversation when he met the person.

Following the small path in the courtyard, he arrived at the west courtyard.

In the yard, Zhan Tianyu and the others had just returned.

After Liang Danian entered the courtyard, everyone promptly turned to look at him.

Upon seeing Liang Danian, Lu Chuan asked, “Why have you followed us here?”

Zhan Tianyu turned his head, also looking at him with curiosity.

“Smithy Master Liang, what is the purpose of your visit?”

Liang Danian seated himself on a nearby stone bench, revealing a friendly smile.

“I’ve given it some thought, and my attitude earlier was indeed inappropriate.

I’ve come over this time to apologize to you all, I am truly sorry.”

“Smithy Master Liang, you might as well speak frankly, your visit this time can’t just be for an apology.”

Zhan Tianyu understood this person well, which is why he spoke so decisively.

Liang Danian let out a helpless sigh, “Alright, it’s like this, our Master Wan Ning from Divine Weapons Smithy, he is very interested in the precious sword this gentleman possesses.

He wishes to study it, which might take a day or two.”

Zhan Tianyu frowned slightly, “Didn’t you say it’s just scrap metal?

Why then is he interested in studying it?”

“It seems he has noticed something extraordinary about it, but we have yet to ascertain the specifics.

So he would still like to take the precious sword with him to study it personally for a few days, maybe three to five, or even a week.”

“In any case, we will come to a conclusion as quickly as possible and then return it to you.”

He revealed a benevolent smile, trying his best to make Zhan Tianyu and his group let down their guard.

Zhan Tianyu looked towards Lu Chuan and asked, “What do you think?

Should we let them appraise it?”

“Let’s just make another trip over there, we’re not busy with anything else right now anyway.”

Liang Danian quickly stood up, smiling as he said, “There’s no need to trouble you.

Running back and forth several times must be tiring for everyone.

Why not this, I personally take it back with me, let him study it thoroughly, and once we have the results, I’ll come to you immediately with the items, how about that?”

His proposal caused both Zhan Tianyu and Lu Chuan to fall into deep thought.

This guy seems pretty good on the surface, even thinking of running errands for others.

But this completely contradicts the character he had just shown.

Would someone who likes to put themselves above others be so polite as to help others carry things?

If it were just for an appraisal, he would have simply come to notify us and then head straight back home.

Why bother with such trouble?

Lu Chuan felt something was off in his heart.

Could it be that this guy already knew the actual situation of the precious sword, and then, driven by greed, wanted to swallow it for himself?

Although Lu Chuan speculated this way, there was no evidence; it was still too early to say.

Seeing how kindly Liang Danian smiled, Zhan Tianyu thought this might be an opportunity to improve their relationship, so he quickly turned to Lu Chuan and said, “Then let’s trouble them to carry the item over, so we don’t have to make the trip ourselves.

It’s quite troublesome to run back and forth.”

“Once the results are out, we’ll just pick it up.”

Upon hearing this, Liang Danian immediately lit up with excitement.

“Friend, did you hear what Zhan Tianyu said?

Take out the precious sword then; there’s no need for you to go there yourself.”

Lu Chuan took two steps back, staring at Liang Danian.

Seeing this, Liang Danian’s expression instantly became stern as he questioned, “What do you mean by this?

I’ve personally come to your doorstep to find you.

Aren’t you giving me face?”

Zhan Tianyu became tense at once; he didn’t want to offend either of them.

“Smithy Master Liang, you’re thinking too much.

There’s no such thing as not giving face.”

“Give him the bronze sword.

Let him take it back for appraisal.

Once the results are out, he’ll bring it back.

Smithy Master Liang has seen countless treasures and occupies a high position; he is certainly trustworthy.”

Lu Chuan, however, shook his head gently.

“What if he comes up with an excuse in a few days, claiming that the bronze sword has been lost?

Who do I reason with then?”

Liang Danian’s face went cold instantly, “What do you mean by that?

Am I going to cheat you over a broken sword?

You’re really underestimating me!”

“Don’t worry at all.

The precious sword will be completely safe with us; there won’t be the slightest risk.”

“At most, it won’t take more than three days.

We’ll give you the results right away!”

“How about it?”

“If you don’t want to know the secrets about this precious sword, then forget I said anything.

I’ll return to the residence, as if I have never been here.”

Zhan Tianyu looked at Lu Chuan and said, “Why not let him take it back and study it?

The Divine Weapons Smithy is so prominent; a monk may run away, but the temple can’t run with him.”

Hearing this, Lu Chuan nodded slightly.

“Your words are reasonable.

A monk can run away, but the temple cannot; therefore, I’ll let you take it back for research for a couple of days.”

“If there’s no result, then I will come looking for you.

And if you dare lose the precious sword, I’ll obliterate your Divine Weapons Smithy!”

At these words, Liang Danian flew into a rage, “Rest assured, you won’t have that opportunity.

Hand over the item to me with peace of mind.”

Lu Chuan removed the sword sheath and handed it to Liang Danian.

“Remember my words; you have at most two days!”

Liang Danian managed a strained smile and nodded slightly, “Don’t worry, just wait for my news in peace.”

“I’ll be leaving now.

Once there are results, I will look for you first thing.”

Having said that, he left with the bronze sword.

Zhan Tianyu looked at Lu Chuan, speaking with doubt, “Why do I feel that there is something odd about this Liang Danian?”

“It doesn’t matter.

If he dares to cheat me out of my precious sword, I’ll make his entire Divine Weapons Smithy pay the price.”

“I must find out the origin of this precious sword and break the seal on it!”

“This sword is extraordinary.

If the seal can be broken, perhaps even more powerful effects will be unveiled.”
