"Swish!"
Light and shadow flickered as Qin Fang appeared above the Divine Dragon Cauldron, looking at the Sharp Sword in Ye Yang's hand. He smiled and said, "The Divine Weapon has emerged! This sword belongs to the water element, transforming water into ice and gathering Dragon Qi. It is truly a rare weapon. If classified by weapon grade, this already falls under the One-Grade Weapon category, just one step away from the Earth Divine Weapon. Zi Yu, if you can refine and forge weapons using a Demon Beast Core of Starry Sky Level Three or above in the future, with your advancement speed, forging an Earth Divine Weapon will be completely within reach!"
"Hehe, Grandpa Qin is overpraising me!"
Ye Yang smiled slightly, feeling a surge of ambition within him. He extended his hand to form a sword finger and engraved the words "Snowfall" on the hilt. The ice-water energy of this sword was immense, with snowflakes often swirling around the blade. Even approaching this sword would allow one to feel the chilling aura emanating from its body. It could even be used to cool off in summer. Moreover, this weapon was specially crafted for Yun Xiaoxi; the divine sword Snowfall was perfectly suited for her, the elegant and refined heir of the Serene Gate.
He took out the prepared sheath from his Cosmic Bag and sheathed Snowfall before stepping out of the room. Outside the secret chamber, a large crowd had already gathered, many of whom had sensed the imposing aura of the Divine Weapon.
...
In the crowd, Ye Yang spotted Yun Xiaoxi at a glance and walked up to her with the sword in hand.
Yun Xiaoxi looked at Ye Yang in amazement and said, "Zi Yu, your cultivation has improved so much..."
Ye Yang chuckled, holding up the long sword and said, "Xiaoxi, your weapon is complete!"
"What?!"
Yun Xiaoxi was slightly startled, overwhelmed with excitement as she reached out to grasp the hilt of Snowfall. Slowly pulling out the blade revealed a transparent and brilliant blade surrounded by dancing snowflakes. The edge shimmered with Cold Light, radiating brilliance; this sword was truly beautiful! However, what mattered more was that a powerful force surged into Yun Xiaoxi's body through the hilt. The practical value of this sword surpassed its appearance!
Instantly, Yun Xiaoxi's mouth fell open in astonishment as she looked at Ye Yang in disbelief. "Zi Yu... are you really giving me this sword?"
"Yes." Ye Yang smiled and said, "You are the heir of Serene Gate with exceptional skills; your only flaw was lacking a suitable weapon. Now it's perfect. This sword is named 'Snowfall,' which suits you very well. What do you think? Do you like it?"
"Yes!" Yun Xiaoxi nodded vigorously, unable to part with the sword as she smiled and said, "I really like it! Thank you, Zi Yu..."
"You're welcome!"
Ye Yang shook his head and approached Zhang Tianhe, Wang Lie, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Fei, smiling as he asked, "There haven't been any major events in Liang City while I was in seclusion, right?"
Wang Lie shook his head. "No, my lord, please rest assured!"
"That's good!"
Ye Yang smiled happily and turned to the supervisor of Ye Family Forge, saying, "We will host a banquet at the mansion at noon. Don't be stingy with the expenses; all of you must come!"
Upon hearing about the banquet, Zhang Tianhe, Wang Lie, and the others readily agreed. The steward quickly went to make arrangements for various delicacies.
...
At noon, Ye Family Mansion was bustling with activity. Ye Yang had invited a group of trusted confidants but had not invited any officials or gentry from Liang City. Given Ye Yang's personality, he had no interest in dealing with those people; all interactions with them were left to Wang Lie and Linghu Bao. Ye Yang was solely responsible for battlefield matters and managing County City.
During the banquet, cups were raised and exchanged as several confidants became quite drunk.
Yun Xiaoxi sat beside Ye Yang, delicately eating delicious food while glancing at him. She noticed that he was devouring a roasted pig with great enthusiasm. After so many days of hard training, Ye Yang was truly starving; he could probably swallow a wild boar whole if it were in front of him!
After the lunch banquet, Yun Xiaoxi took her Snowdrift Sword to practice. Wang Lie, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and the others returned to their posts. As for Ye Yang, after eating and drinking his fill, he returned to his room and fell asleep immediately.
He slept deeply and woke up to find it was already the next day. When Ye Yang opened his eyes, he felt a surge of True Qi within him. After resting for a night, he was full of energy and had fully recovered from his arduous training. He immediately leaped out of bed.
Before he could step outside, he heard Wang Lie's voice from outside: "My lord, there is a situation outside Liang City!"
"Oh? What's going on?"
Ye Yang pushed open the door, stretched lazily, and then fastened the straps of his armor. He was accustomed to being in a state of readiness, always prepared for battle. Moreover, although the Fire God Armor had already merged with his body, it still required the physical armor for optimal defense; otherwise, its protective capabilities would be significantly reduced.
Wang Lie knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice, "General Wang Li led fifty thousand troops to engage the Chu Army in battle in the outskirts, but fell victim to Xiang Yu's fire attack and suffered a great defeat. Commander Wang Li's subordinate, Tian Hong, fled to Liang City and is hiding somewhere within. Xiang Yu has ordered Liu Bang to send someone to capture Tian Hong. Liu Bang has sent his subordinate Yong Chi to Liang City, demanding that we hand over Tian Hong, or face military confrontation!"
Ye Yang was taken aback, anger surging within him as he said quietly, "Yong Chi is so disrespectful, thinking that we are harboring Tian Hong?"
"Yes!"
Wang Lie was indignant and replied solemnly, "Yong Chi is just a petty man who relies on his master Liu Bang's connections with Xiang Yu. He is particularly arrogant and looks down on others. He is currently at the inn in Liang City. My lord, do you want to go see him?"
"Mm, have him come to the Prefectural Office; I will wait for him there!"
"Understood!"
...
Ye Yang had a light meal before galloping towards the Prefectural Office.
At the Prefectural Office, a group of soldiers saw their lord arrive and quickly knelt in respect. Ye Yang, as the Sky Rider, passed through and entered the courtyard, dismounted, and drew his sword as he stepped inside.
In the main hall, sure enough, a shifty-eyed man dressed in Chu Army armor was sitting there. Even upon seeing Ye Yang enter, he did not move an inch but merely smiled slightly and said, "You must be Ye Yang of Liang City? The one who killed the former lord Pang Jing and took his place?"
Ye Yang smiled faintly and replied, "Indeed. May I ask what brings you here to Liang City, Lord Yong Chi?"
Yong Chi's expression was stern as he slammed his hand on the table and said in a low voice, "Ye Yang, stop pretending. You sheltered the bandit general Tian Hong in Liang City and took in nearly ten thousand troops under his command. Do you really think you can deny it?"
Ye Yang gritted his teeth and turned to quietly ask Wang Lie, "Did we take in ten thousand government troops?"
"No, my lord. That ten thousand Qin Army soldiers have already been ambushed and killed by Xiang Yu. Yong Chi is just using this as an opportunity to stir trouble. In my opinion, he is relying on the Chu Army's might to try to extort us in Liang City!"
"Hmph!"
Ye Yang turned around with a smile and said, "Lord Yong Chi, you see, we in Liang City have absolutely no collusion with the bandit general. How about this? I will immediately send someone to capture Tian Hong. Please wait a moment."
Yong Chi's gaze turned cold as he said, "Ye Yang, if you know what's good for you, hand over the seal of the Lord of Liang City and surrender this city to Pei Gong. Perhaps I can speak a few good words for you; otherwise, don't blame me for marching my army to flatten Liang City to find Tian Hong. Even your Fire God Clan will face extermination!"
……
"Is that so?"
Ye Yang slightly raised his head, and a hint of anger finally appeared in his clear eyes. In an instant, he struck out with just a light punch, causing Yong Chi to open his mouth wide as blood splattered from the corner of his lips.
Watching Yong Chi in pain and unable to speak, Ye Yang calmly said, "Please wait a moment, envoy. I will bring you Tian Hong's head as proof."
