Qi Country, Chi Yang Prefecture.
On his second day in Nanyao City, Jiang Wang was dragged to visit Lian Que's forging.
Each forger of Lian's family could use the ancient furnace only three times in their lifetime. They wouldn't ignite it without sufficient confidence or anticipation. This restriction stemmed not from skill, cultivation level, or status, but from bloodline limitations.
Although Lian's family specialized in forging and clearly had profound research on bloodlines, as the life plaques proved.
Given Lian Que's current status, even a trial would not employ a subpar forge. It was almost as good as the best forge of Lian's family, barring the ancient ones.
This time, there wouldn't be anyone foolish enough to disturb the process.
It goes without saying for Lian Shao. He was now wholly one of Lian Que's faction and was full of gratitude toward Jiang Wang.
