“Gongshu Cangyou?” Looking at the suddenly appearing figure, Lu Yongzhi’s pupils abruptly contracted, and he immediately stopped his actions.

[Why did he come in person?] Lu Yongzhi’s eyes flickered with light, clearly unable to understand why Gongshu Cangyou would appear at this time.

Although Lu Yongzhi was the Patriarch of the Lu Clan, when speaking of etiquette, at most it should have been Gongshu Yushan who came to receive him. Why was it that the Supreme Elder of the Gongshu Clan had personally rushed over instead?

However, upon seeing Gongshu Cangyou’s gloomy face, Lu Yongzhi could easily guess that the Supreme Elder had not come to welcome him.

[Could it be because of that young man?] Lu Yongzhi had just made this guess in his heart, then immediately denied it. How could a young man make Gongshu Cangyou personally appear?

[Perhaps Gongshu Cangyou appeared because he is concerned that the earlier confrontation might affect the relationship between the Gongshu Clan and my Lu Clan?] Thinking of this, a surge of anger welled up in Lu Yongzhi’s heart, because earlier, that young man had not only dared to fight back, but had even blasted Lu Xiaoguan halfway down the mountain!

“Is this how your Gongshu Clan treats our Lu Clan?”

Lu Yongzhi coldly snorted, pointing at Qin Yichen with great dissatisfaction, shouting, “Gongshu Yushan! I demand this young man kneel down and apologise to my Son!”

As these words were spoken, those Lu Clan members who had followed behind Lu Yongzhi also shouted loudly one after another, their faces filled with righteous indignation.

“He must apologise!”

“Daring to treat our Young Master this way, even cutting him into a thousand pieces wouldn’t be too much!”

Shouts of protest erupted from the mouths of the Lu Clan members.

As Lu Ban’s Descendants, any Clan would possess this sense of arrogance. The Gongshu Clan was not exempted from this. In their view, as long as one was an outsider, regardless of whether they were a Martial Artist or an Alchemy Master, they were all inferior to Craftsmen.

In the hearts of Lu Ban’s Descendants, only the Dao of Crafting reigned supreme!

The young man who had blasted their Young Master down the mountainside was not wearing the robes of a Gongshu Clan member. He was clearly not part of the Gongshu Clan. A mere outsider dared to raise his hand against the Young Master of their Lu Clan. In their eyes, this was the epitome of disrespect!

Even if he was an honoured guest of the Gongshu Clan, they must still give the Lu Clan an explanation.

However, they failed to see that amidst their protests, the faces of Gongshu Yushan and Gongshu Cangyou had already completely darkened.

“Brother Yichen…” Gongshu Zhiyi’s small hand gripped Qin Yichen’s robe, fearing he might leave in rage.

“You scoundrel…” At this moment, Lu Xiaoguan had finally flown up from below, and coincidentally witnessed Gongshu Zhiyi’s posture, immediately causing his heart to burn with rage!

“Quickly kneel down and apologise to me!” Lu Xiaoguan flew above Qin Yichen, his confidence growing amidst the various clamours!

“Silence!” Suddenly, a furious roar, like thunder, exploded on the mountainside.

Under this roar, even Lu Yongzhi felt a surge of pressure that he could not ignore, while some of the Lu Clan members behind him, less able to withstand it, had blood flowing from their ears, and several even fainted on the spot.

Most pitifully, Lu Xiaoguan, who was in mid-air, already injured after being blasted by Qin Yichen. Now, his eyes rolled back, directly fainting.

“This Spiritual Energy…” Lu Yongzhi’s face was filled with shock as he looked at Gongshu Cangyou who had roared out. Their Lu Clan also had a Supreme Elder of the same generation as Gongshu Cangyou, but the latter could certainly not achieve this feat – making his Soul tremble with merely a roar!

[Has he had some kind of breakthrough during this period?] Lu Yongzhi’s face turned somewhat ugly. He naturally did not know that it was not just Gongshu Cangyou, but all of the Gongshu Clan who had received the baptism from the Spirit Sea. This has allowed their Spiritual Energy to make a leap in progress!

And most importantly, Gongshu Cangyou’s attitude seemed to indirectly indicate his stance!

[Is Gongshu Cangyou actually willing to fall out with my Lu Clan for the sake of this young man, who we have never seen before?]

“It seems your Gongshu Clan is determined to shelter this young man!” Lu Yongzhi deeply questioned.

He was very displeased with Gongshu Cangyou’s attitude. [Does he think that just because his Spiritual Energy attainment is slightly higher, he could stand above the Lu Clan, who are also Lu Ban’s Descendants?]

Gongshu Cangyou did not answer, clearly acquiescing to the statement.

Lu Yongzhi took a deep breath, wanting to suppress the anger in his chest, but even with his extremely high emotional control, he could not endure the feeling of being insulted. His face twisted, and if it were not for Gongshu Cangyou’s presence, he might have already stormed off, completely severing relations with the Gongshu Clan!

“Is this what the Lu Clan, Lu Ban’s Descendants, has become? Truly disappointing!” Just as he was about to lose his temper, a somewhat sighing voice entered his ears.

Lu Yongzhi frowned, looked over, and found that the speaker was actually the instigator of this incident, the young man being held by Gongshu Zhiyi!

“Young man, what nonsense are you spouting?” Lu Yongzhi’s face darkened, suppressing the anger which was about to erupt. He said deeply to Qin Yichen. “Do you think that just by being in this place, you’re qualified to call yourself a Lu Ban’s Descendants?”

Behind him, the many Lu Clan members also showed arrogant expressions, their gazes towards Qin Yichen was full of disdain. How could just anyone claim to be Lu Ban’s Descendant?

*Whoosh…*

And just as they were expressing their disdain, the young man waved his arm, seemingly taking something out from his Space Ring. He held it in his hand.

“The Mas-Master Craftsman’s Hammer!”

Upon seeing what Qin Yichen was holding, a cry of shock involuntarily burst from Lu Yongzhi’s mouth.

The Lu Clan members at the back, upon hearing these four words, all trembled. Gazes of disbelief suddenly shot towards the object in Qin Yichen’s hand.

The Master Craftsman’s Hammer! As Lu Ban’s Descendants, although they had never seen the genuine article, they had all seen it in ancient texts. Now, the giant hammer was in this young man’s hand. Whether in lines or patterns, it was perfectly exquisite. It was perfectly merging with the Master Craftsman’s Hammer deep in their memories!

“Master Craftsman’s Hammer, he… he actually found the Master Craftsman’s Hammer!”

At this moment, the anger in Lu Yongzhi’s heart directly dissipated like smoke and clouds to who knows where. His eyes stared fixedly at the object in the young man’s hand, not even daring to blink, as if, if he were to blink, this dream would shatter.

*Whoosh…* Under his lingering gaze, Qin Yichen waved his arm, putting away the Master Craftsman’s Hammer.

[No wonder Gongshu Cangyou and the others held such an attitude…] At this moment, Lu Yongzhi’s heart also suddenly understood, finally comprehending why Gongshu Cangyou would personally come and be so willing to draw the line with the Lu Clan.

Lu Yongzhi knew very well what holding the Master Craftsman’s Hammer represented!
