Chapter 139 She walked forward on corpses, but she was nobler and holier than anyone else.
Gengxin City is considered one of the main cities within the Xingluo Empire. Therefore, there are naturally people from the Spirit Hall here, and it is also a branch of the Spirit Hall level.
The Spirit Hall has great power throughout the entire continent, and they are present in almost every city of every level.
Upon hearing that an important figure from the Spirit Temple was coming, the Spirit Hall sent people to wait for him early.
Upon learning that the young master had left the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, Thorny Pig and Snake Spear also came directly to Gengxin City to wait for the reunion.
Every day, more than twenty Spirit Masters from the Spirit Hall stand at the gate of Gengxin City, looking forward to it. This behavior has also attracted the attention of many passers-by and the Blacksmith Association. It seems that an important person will visit the Spirit Hall.
As soon as Qian Renxue got off the carriage, seven or eight people dressed as Spirit Hall deacons came over.
The leader looked to be about middle-aged, with somewhat gray hair, a hooked nose, small eyes, a big forked mouth, and the skin on his face was as ugly as dried orange peel, but his eyes revealed a look of surprise and flattery.
"May I ask if your surname is Qian? Are you from the Wuhun Main Hall?"
Qian Renxue nodded and asked softly, "Are you Bishop Miles? The manager of Gengxin Main Hall?"
Miles smiled even brighter, and immediately said eagerly, "Yes, Your Highness has a really good memory. You even remember my name. I am honored! Your Highness, please come this way! The two elders have been waiting for you in the main hall for a long time."
After saying that, he guided Qian Renxue inside. As soon as she entered the city gate, the metallic smell that hit her face immediately gave Qian Renxue a different feeling. She looked at the appearance of this special city with interest.
However, the surrounding blacksmiths and residents were looking at them with disgust, as if they did not welcome people from the Spirit Hall.
Qian Renxue didn't react much, but became more interested. It seemed that the Blacksmith Association in the original novel had a miserable life under the oppression of the Wuhun Main Hall.
However, Miles's expression immediately turned ugly. He showed a threatening expression to the citizens around him, causing them to leave in fear. Then he turned to Qian Renxue and said earnestly: "Hey, Your Highness, do you need me to introduce this Metal City to you?"
He didn't dare to look at Qian Renxue's face, for fear that the small head would control the big head, so he lowered his head and looked respectful.
Qian Renxue's eyes flashed with a strange light, and she hummed lightly, "Then tell me about the Blacksmith Association of Gengxin City. I am very interested in this group of blacksmiths, and I am here for them."
Miles was a little panicked. Could it be that because he had oppressed the people too harshly, someone went to the Spirit Temple to report him?
He said carefully: "Gengxin City is the city with the most blacksmith shops. Only in this city are blacksmiths valued. In the whole Gengxin City, there are thousands of blacksmith shops and tens of thousands of blacksmiths. Many blacksmiths from other cities come here specifically to take the blacksmith assessment. If they can pass the senior blacksmith assessment, they can stay in this city. In short, this is a paradise for blacksmiths."
"According to these blacksmiths, the Blacksmith Association's concept of these blacksmiths is equivalent to the relationship between our Spirit Hall and spirit masters. Of course, Your Highness, these peasants cannot be compared with noble spirit masters like us! This is a completely stupid delusion! Our Spirit Hall is the strongest force in Douluo Continent!"
Qian Renxue glanced at him calmly, "I don't need your subjective opinions. You just need to introduce the Blacksmith Association to me straightforwardly. Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes." Miles wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Oh no, he was flattering the wrong person. This prince didn't seem to like flattery and was a man of action.
"The Blacksmith Association divides the profession of blacksmith into seven levels, from low to high, namely: primary blacksmith, intermediate blacksmith, senior blacksmith, master blacksmith, master blacksmith, master blacksmith and divine blacksmith."
Qian Renxue asked, "How many master craftsmen are there on the continent right now?"
Miles showed a flattering smile. "Well, I know that there is only one person who is the most prestigious in the Blacksmith Association of Gengxin City. He is Lou Gao from the Blacksmith Association. He is the president of the Blacksmith Association. Your Highness, you don't know that those peasants even compared Lou Gao to the Pope of our Wuhun Hall. They are really bold! You must not be fooled by those peasants."
Qian Renxue sighed. This Miles was really ignorant and had no sense of propriety. How did he get the position of bishop? Was his cerebellum shifted three centimeters to the left?
Qian Renxue had a gentle smile on her face, "You mean, I look like a fool who can be deceived?"
"Ah? How could this happen? Haha, it's all my fault! Your Highness, please forgive me this time."
Miles immediately started slapping himself on the mouth, really mad at this guy. His position as bishop was in jeopardy. Living with the king was like living with a tiger. It was really difficult for him.
Seeing Miles' useless appearance, Qian Renxue lost interest in wandering around and said, "Take me back to the main hall."
"Yes!"
Soon, a month passed and Qian Renxue also adapted to life in Gengxin City.
In just one month's time, the attitude of the residents of Gengxin City and the Blacksmith Association towards Qian Renxue and the Spirit Hall has changed 360 degrees.
As for the reason, Qian Renxue had been in Gengxin City for only one month, and she had killed more than a dozen bureaucrats and nobles. She didn't remember how many exactly died, but anyway, they were not people worth mentioning, right?
She did not have a transfer order from the Emperor of the Xing Luo Empire, nor did she have any procedural approval, nor did she receive any official permission.
Qian Renxue had nothing, but she still did it, because she was Qian Renxue, the young master of the Spirit Hall. Even though Gengxin City was the main city of the Xingluo Empire, she could kill as long as she had a reason.
Even if this reason was not sufficient, not enough, or even completely unfounded, in full view of the public, she could kill anyone she wanted in the entire Xing Luo Empire except the Dai royal family, even if the imperial duke from the Zhu family came.
Snake Spear Douluo put a luxurious black wolf cloak on Qian Renxue. Soon, Qian Renxue was going to meet the Lord of Gengxin City, Earl Gengxin, to discuss with him the future development of the Blacksmith Association.
No one knows why the big shots from the Spirit Temple went to Gengxin City to kill so many people. Is it really for the job benefits of those peasants?
Although blacksmiths are not valued by the two empires, the army's weapons and equipment, farm tools, buildings, and furniture all require the participation of blacksmiths. The more senior the blacksmith, the more valuable the things he casts. Emperor Xingluo has been paying attention to what Qian Renxue has done in Gengxin City. He is very wary, but dare not stop it.
Although the Star Luo Emperor has the cultivation of a Soul Douluo, and his martial soul fusion technique allows him to defeat Titled Douluo, he is only facing one. The Star Luo Empire has no Titled Douluo, and this has always been the pain of the Star Luo Empire.
There are two Titled Douluo entrenched in Gengxin City, and he doesn't want to be assassinated by the two Titled Douluo. Although the Xingluo Empire has always wanted to deal with the Spirit Hall, if it really faces them, it has no choice but to give in.
Because of this, the Xingluo Emperor sent a condemnation statement to the Spirit Hall, but it was unfortunately ignored by Bibi Dong. The Xingluo Emperor had no choice but to send a message to Emperor Xue Ye, wanting to join forces with the Tiandou Empire to fight against the Spirit Hall.
If the two empires work together, they don't have to be so passive, but Emperor Xue Ye has been looking for Xue Ke and cheering for the situation in the Xing Luo Empire. Emperor Xue Ye is not just gloating, he also knows that the lips and teeth are cold.
It's just that his little princess Xue Ke is too talented, and with Xue Haizang, a child with ancestral blood, as long as he can drag it on and his Tiandou Empire has two Titled Douluo, he won't be so passive.
Now let the Star Luo Empire be cowardly. It is not a disgrace to the Heaven Dou Empire anyway. Without the help of the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire dare not challenge the Spirit Hall. Unless the Spirit Hall blatantly mobilizes its troops and the Star Luo Empire wants to be annexed by it, otherwise, the Heaven Dou Empire can only watch the show from the sidelines.
"let's go."
Qian Renxue patted her clothes and walked forward calmly.
"Yes."×2
Just as Qian Renxue walked out of the Wuhun Main Hall with the Thorny Porpoise and the Snake Spear, cheers immediately rang out from the surrounding streets.
"It's His Highness Qian Ling'er! This His Highness is going to fight for us again!"
"Earl Gengxin is doomed, the beast who has been exploiting us blacksmiths! Princess Qian Ling'er is a big shot in the Spirit Temple! She is not afraid of those nobles!"
Noisy and enthusiastic cheers could be heard on the street, where many blacksmiths gathered.
Young people are indeed easier to fool. There are not many elderly people. Most of the people at the door of the main hall are young blacksmiths who are full of vigor and vitality.
Even Lou Gao's disciples Silong and Siyu came to the entrance of the Wuhun Main Hall, looking at Qian Renxue fanatically with blushes on their faces.
Just when the atmosphere was heated, a discordant voice suddenly came out. "Ah? But weren't those nobles colluding with Miles from the Spirit Hall to make our blacksmith's life so miserable? How could the spirit masters of the Spirit Hall fight for the blacksmith?"
Hearing this, the originally heated atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked fiercely at the blacksmith who didn't understand what was going on.
Silong clenched his huge fists, his muscles trembling, as if he wanted to take action immediately, and stared at the blacksmith with a fierce look.
"My friend, I need you to take back what you just said! This is an insult to our blacksmith's friend, His Highness Qian Ling'er! If you insist on doing so, this metal city may no longer welcome you."
The blacksmith looked at Silong in bewilderment, "Master Silong, why are you speaking for the people in the Spirit Hall? They are all spirit masters! Aren't they all bad guys who are oppressing the living space of us blacksmiths?"
Si Yu also stepped forward and cursed: "What a stupid idea! Don't you have any ability to think! Look at how many villains Princess Qian Ling'er has executed after coming to the main hall! No matter how big the background of those villains is, she has never been afraid to back down. A girl is helping our blacksmith community so much, and you are still slandering her! Brothers! This person is definitely not a blacksmith! It must be an undercover sent by Earl Gengxin to slander Princess Qian Ling'er!"
"Kill him!"
A voice coming from nowhere suddenly sounded among the group of blacksmiths.
"Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!"
Then, a series of fanatical and insane voices swept in, scaring the man who raised the question so much that his face turned pale. A chilling fear rose in his heart. Why would his blacksmith brothers want to kill him for a girl from the Spirit Hall? They obviously knew him. He was only on a business trip for a month, so how come everyone seemed like a different person when he came back?
This girl from the Spirit Hall is so scary. Can she control people's hearts?
A golden halo suddenly came from the door of the Wuhun Main Hall, the angel domain unfolded, golden feathers fell from the sky, the sacred hymns calmed the restlessness in people's hearts, and healed their bodies and minds. A faint golden halo also appeared on the blonde girl's body, and a faint pink halo emerged in her purple eyes, which was holy yet made people involuntarily desire to blaspheme.
She stood in front of everyone, stretched out a hand and pressed it down slightly.
So the scene soon became quiet.
"Calm down, everyone. This is just a small misunderstanding. Gentlemen, as I fight for you, I would rather hear the cheers of the blacksmiths than the anger of my fellow brothers."
Many blacksmiths lowered their heads in shame, not knowing how to face the girl's beautiful eyes.
"I have heard your compassion and appeals. I know why you came here. I know your dreams, your persistence, and your desires. That is why I came here from the Spirit Temple."
"Before I came here, many people said that soul masters and blacksmiths are two different classes, and it is impossible for me to let blacksmiths and soul masters coexist in harmony."
"Nonsense!"
"They are just a bunch of short-sighted idiots!"
There were shouts and curses from the crowd, and they seemed particularly dissatisfied with this.
Qian Renxue waved her hand gently, and as she moved, the voices of the crowd gradually faded away.
"In my opinion, the Blacksmith Association is the same as the Spirit Hall. They are both organizations that care about the entire group. The only difference is that the Spirit Hall is for spirit masters, while the Blacksmith Association is for blacksmiths. But this does not mean that we cannot be compatriots!"
"Can't a soul master become an excellent blacksmith? Can't a blacksmith become a powerful soul master?"
"No! That's not it! You can be whoever you want to be!"
Qian Renxue's shiny golden hair fluttered in the wind, and her tender and clear girlish voice sounded sonorous and powerful at this moment, as if she would not waver or retreat in the face of any doubts.
"So! I came here so you can tell me about your anger and your troubles, and they-"
Qian Renxue bowed slightly towards the people around her and pointed to the shelf opposite the Wuhun Main Hall, where there was an instrument of execution.
Following Qian Renxue's finger, the eyes of many blacksmiths became more and more heated.
"They deserve to stay there."
There were more than a dozen dead bodies on the iron frame, and the one in the front was Bishop Miles of the Spirit Hall.
This Bishop Miles was truly a legend. Qian Renxue didn't know why he could make himself so annoying. Just by killing him, the attitude of the people in the entire Gengxin City immediately changed from disgust to friendliness, and they directly regarded her as the kind-hearted Master Qingtian.
“Oooooohh ...
The cheers at the scene became more and more enthusiastic. Many blacksmiths had already started wiping away tears. They could no longer suppress the sadness and grievances of many years. They were young people full of vigor and vitality, but because of the world, the hardships and blows forced them to compromise.
But now, there is a noble princess who is willing to seek justice for them, stand up for them, and seek benefits for them. She is kind but not weak. Her dream is too fantastic, but every step she takes is not childish.
She walked on dirty corpses, but she was nobler and holier than anyone else.
The old blacksmiths all said that they were wrong, she just wanted to swallow up the Blacksmith Association, but the young people scoffed, they knew exactly how the blacksmiths were doing, what was the good intention of this rotten Blacksmith Association, anyone could step on it, and it was always the blacksmiths who suffered, so they could only tolerate it again and again.
But the bodies of the exploiters in front of them told them that their choice was not wrong! What the old blacksmiths could not do, the princess who they suspected of being a "scheming person" did. She was the blacksmith's friend!
In this wave of cheers, Qian Renxue just watched the blacksmiths' madness elegantly and calmly with a peaceful smile.
Very good, you are happy, I am happy too, it’s just killing a few people, she has no loss at all, except for that legendary annoying Bishop Miles, the rest are all dignitaries of the Star Luo Empire.
When the cheers died down, Qian Renxue continued to raise her head and said:
"The battle armor I proposed will change the entire system of the soul master world! Soul masters will always be the mainstream of the world, but what if powerful soul masters can never do without blacksmiths? At that time, the status of all blacksmiths will really rise!"
"This is by no means a lie, but my promise to you. Next, I will go to Earl Gengxin's mansion. What do you want me to say to him?"
The crowd immediately burst into all kinds of strange and obscene insults, like a frog urinating.
The sound of Qian Renxue circulating her soul power drowned out the curses. This executioner who had just brutally massacred the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan had now become a kind and powerful person representing "justice" and "mercy". She calmly made promises to the blacksmiths.
"I'll tell him—"
"The entrance to Gengxin Main Hall is his new habitat."
Qian Renxue gently lifted her skirt and saluted gracefully, then got on the carriage with the porcupine snake spear and disappeared from the sight of the blacksmiths.
"Qian Ling'er!"
After a while, another loud shout was heard from the group of blacksmiths.
“Qian Ling’er!” “Qian Ling’er!” “Qian Ling’er!”
