Chapter 428: 428 Princess Yongning’s Deterrence, Shocking Split [2 More Updates]

He never thought there was any weapon in the world worthy of his repair skills.

If it were a top-tier weapon, how could it possibly be damaged?

Anything that could be damaged certainly didn’t deserve to be called a "Divine Weapon."

What caught Mr. Farouk’s eye was a broken spear, its gold and silver hues strikingly conspicuous, reminding one of the phrase "Sun and Moon Shine Together."

Yet, the colors could not conceal the two words on the broken spear—

Divine Might.

The power of Shence, protecting Shenzhou.

All demons and gods under heaven were souls beneath its spear.

Mr. Farouk’s pupils suddenly constricted, his expression almost horrified as he involuntarily exclaimed, "This is..."

As Beilu People, he wasn’t unaware of other countries’ histories, especially the famous Divine Weapons from history.

Shenzhou’s strength centuries ago stemmed from its pinnacle standing in various aspects of the world, including the foundry technology during the Ning Dynasty and the era of Grand Ancestor Ning.

And the Divine Might Spear was born during this time.

First came the Divine Might Spear, and then came the Shence Spear Technique.

Only the Divine Might Spear could maximize the power of the Shence Spear Technique, as no ordinary weapon could carry out the ultimate move of the Shence Spear Technique.

For in the moment of energy explosion, ordinary weapons would be destroyed due to their inability to withstand the surging power.

From a very young age, Mr. Farouk had learned about many historical Divine Weapons from his elders—Divine Might Spear, Sword Saint’s Sword, Dragging Shadow Twin Swords, Three Ancient Zithers of the Heavenly Sound Sect...etc.

His elders lamented that these Divine Weapons were destroyed in a great war.

Mr. Farouk could only glimpse the splendor of these weapons through reading history books.

He had never imagined that he would set eyes on the Divine Might Spear himself.

Moreover, Mr. Farouk was certain that this broken spear before him was genuine.

Being a blacksmith, his discerning eye naturally allowed him to recognize it at first glance.

But how could the Divine Might Spear be broken?

Mr. Farouk suddenly looked up, "What happened to this spear? It should not have broken!"

Miss Ye’s eyelashes drooped, her gaze deep and profound.

The Divine Might Spear was broken because in the last moments of his life, Huo Jingyu had exhausted his strength to execute the ultimate move.

The stronger his conviction, the more powerful the technique.

Defending Shenzhou was his lifelong belief, a conviction so immense that even the Divine Might Spear couldn’t withstand it.

"I don’t know the specific reason," Miss Ye spoke softly, "I just want to know if there’s a way to repair the Divine Might Spear."

"I... can repair it." Mr. Farouk’s hands trembled slightly with overwhelming excitement, "If I repair the Divine Might Spear..."

He would surely make his mark in history!

Miss Ye’s eyebrows raised, "Oh? Mr. Farouk, you have such confidence?"

"Yes," Mr. Farouk calmed himself a bit, "but the material that forged this spear is very rare; as far as I know, the global mineral market hasn’t seen Gold and Silver Secret Iron for two hundred years."

Gold and Silver Secret Iron, he had only learned about from books.

The Divine Might Spear was precisely forged from a complete piece of Gold and Silver Secret Iron.

To repair it, Gold and Silver Secret Iron was necessary, and the new Gold and Silver Secret Iron had to perfectly integrate with the old spear.

Looking back at Miss Ye, Mr. Farouk’s expression had turned respectful, "I still don’t know how to address this young lady?"

"My surname is Ye." Miss Ye slowly said, "Ye Wanlan, like reversing the turbulent waves."

"Miss Ye, as it turns out." Mr. Farouk took a deep breath, "Miss Ye even came to the Northern Lands alone with the Divine Might Spear, and asked me to repair it. Are you truly not afraid that once I repair the Divine Might Spear, I won’t return it to Shenzhou?"

"Mr. Farouk must be joking." Unnoticed until now, a dagger had appeared in Ye Wanlan’s hand, which she twirled with a faint smile, "Since I have brought the Divine Might Spear for you to repair, naturally, I have ways to ensure that you won’t keep it for yourself."

With a "snap," the dagger was laid on the table, Cold Gleam reflecting off the cold blade, allowing Farouk to clearly see the girl’s blue eyes through the reflection of the dagger.

Like a frightened bird, he instantly jumped up, staring at her in horror.

"It’s just a joke," Ye Wanlan said with a light smile, "Mr. Farouk, no need to be so alarmed."

She reached out leisurely, picked up the dagger, and no one could see how she slid it back into her sleeve.

But Mr. Farouk couldn’t help shivering again, cold sweat dripping down his forehead: "Miss Ye, I was just talking. I never have any intention to claim Shenzhou’s treasure as my own."

"I know," Ye Wanlan replied airily, "If you were not just talking, you wouldn’t be able to say anything now."

She paused, then smiled, "I’d lock you up until you fix the Divine Might Spear. Believe me, I can do it. If you don’t believe me, you are welcome to try."

Mr. Farouk: "..."

He couldn’t help but swallow hard, feeling his body break out in goosebumps.

In that moment, he involuntarily remembered, a few years ago, Estelle Rubinstein had casually mentioned that she had a friend.

More precisely, an online group friend, and due to some reasons, these group members were from all over, never having met in person.

Estelle had said that although her friend seemed serene and detached, she was actually completely mad and not someone to be trifled with.

Back then he had wondered, how could the word "serene" coexist with "mad"?

They are clearly antonyms!

Now upon meeting her, Mr. Farouk couldn’t help but marvel at how accurate Estelle’s words were; she truly was the Chief Technical Officer of the Wanguo Group.

Beneath the girl’s elegant and composed appearance lay a mad personality.

Unexpectedly, he had met Estelle’s online friend first.

"Don’t be afraid, Mr. Farouk," Ye Wanlan looked at him, offering reassurance, "What we need to discuss next is how to find the Gold and Silver Secret Iron you mentioned. I won’t harm your life."

Mr. Farouk was still somewhat dazed, uncontrollably letting out a scream.

Ye Wanlan pondered, "Am I really that frightening?"

Hearing this, Xie Linyuan raised an eyebrow, replying leisurely, "Little Junior Sister, you don’t know how scary you are when you get serious. It’s not just him; even those veterans in the court are terrified by you."

It was not as if no one had questioned how Princess Yongning, being a woman, could ascend to the East Palace, but she indeed made everyone willingly accept her.

"Okay, have some tea," Ye Wanlan continued soothingly, "Where might we find the Gold and Silver Secret Iron?"

After drinking a cup of tea, Mr. Farouk gradually calmed down: "That’s exactly the problem. Gold and Silver Secret Iron doesn’t belong to any particular vein and its appearance has always been coincidental. However, I heard that someone found a piece this year; it will be auctioned off."

Gold and Silver Secret Iron was so precious that even as a genius blacksmith, Mr. Farouk would go broke trying to buy it.

"The auction." Ye Wanlan nodded lightly, "Whether the news is true or not, let’s first have a look at this auction."

"Miss Ye is on time; the auction is in two days," Mr. Farouk said gravely, "The auction is held by the Global Center this year, here in the Northern Lands. I have a private box, and I can bring Miss Ye along."

"Good," Ye Wanlan replied, "once we obtain the Gold and Silver Secret Iron, you can start repairing the Divine Might Spear. Compensation is not a problem."

"I do not need compensation," Mr. Farouk waved his hand, "It’s my honor to repair the Divine Might Spear. Even though we have the Gold and Silver Secret Iron, repairing the Divine Might Spear will take some time. I can arrange accommodations for Miss Ye."

"I don’t have much time and am not free," Ye Wanlan’s expression remained calm, "I still have to take the college entrance exam in June, so I will not stay long in the Northern Lands. I will return only after you have repaired the Divine Might Spear."

"Understandable, since you’re friends with Estelle, you both are quite—" Mr. Farouk nodded, about to agree, when he suddenly realized something crucial.

He stiffly turned his head, and after a lengthy struggle, he finally muttered hard, "You said, what are you doing in June?"

"College exams—full name Shenzhou High School Entrance Exam," Ye Wanlan responded succinctly, "Through this exam, high school students can go to their ideal universities. The Northern Lands probably have a similar one, right?"

Mr. Farouk took a few deep breaths to steady himself.

He shakily pulled out his cell phone and sent a message to a contact with a gray avatar, with a gritted tone.

[I’m a blacksmith]: Sister, you didn’t tell me that your big shot group friend is still a high school student!
