"Greetings, Master Yang" With ia coarse voice the young man who had suddenly appeared said.

The appearance of the lad appeared quite ordinary, but with the expression on the faces of both Master Yang and Lee, one would be able to tell that though the lad's facial appearance was ordinary, he wasn't someone of an ordinary class.

"Hey, i never expected to meet the formidable young master of Wateredge clan here, such good luck of mine" though the words of the lad appeared clean and friendly, there was contempt in his voice which he didn't try to hide.

"Bloodsnake of Light Wolf clan, it's a pleasure to meet you " Lee's expression contradicted his words, with the cold expression on his face he didn't seem happy to see Bloodsnake.

Just like Wateredge clan, Light Wolf clan was also a local echelon in Vine city, there weren't sword experts like Wateredge, but, Mystical beast blood injectors.

The relationship between Wateredge and Light wolf clan wasn't bright, though they didn't declare a public enmity, there was an invincible feud between the two parties, the ways of practice of Light Wolf clan was in contrast to their seeming scrupulous name, they were entirely vicious and Lee sometimes wondered why they didn't just name their clan ' Blood Wolf clan'.

Bloodsnake was one the sons of the Clan head of Light Wolf clan, the latter had a lot of wives not to talk of concubines, and so he had a lot of children, but as expected of a martial world he only concerned himself with the talented, with Bloodsnake, been one them.

"What have you come here for?!" Master Yang said indifferently, he was entirely annoyed that Bloodsnake disrupted his conversation, but he choose not to act, because he knew how strong the status of this seeming ordinary looking lad was, but that didn't indicate he was afraid.

"Great Master Yang, my father request of you to forge me a formidable weapon that could easily slice through the skin of a Mystical beast" He pulled out a pouch from his sleeves and with a slight bow, slowly handed it over to Master Yang, who didn't spare a glance at it before he kept it in his storage artifact.

Bloodsnake stared at Lee with the corner of his eyes and couldn't help but feel envious, he was well aware of Master Yang's arrogance and for the latter to be in such position with Lee, something interesting should be happening!

"You can leave, come back in the next two days" Master Yang said has he waved his hands impatiently.

Bloodsnake nodded his head and proceeded to leave, but the lad couldn't help but turn his head and stare at Lee with a fierce glint flashing across his eyes, and somehow he slowed his steps, from his actions, one would be able to easily tell that he was a bit reluctant to leave.

Lee on seeing this, unwittingly had battle intent fill his eyes.

Master Yang was irritated by this scene, but on staring at Lee who had suddenly began to lust for battle, a strange smile couldn't help but appear on his face.

"Hey, since two of you seem to want to exchange fists, i could be of help" Master Yang uttered, while a cheeky smile appeared on his face.

Lee felt his ear ring, though he was still young and at this stage had his blood boiling and sometimes would act rashly, he wasn't a battle freak who would suddenly just pick a fight with anybody he sees, although he felt like designing Bloodsnake's face with his fist. But still he was amazed at the words of Master Yang, what kind of elder was he?!

"I could even place a bet on the fight, if you Bloodsnake win I would forge you a weapon that could easily pierce a rank two mystical beast, with no need for you to pay"

On hearing this, Bloodsnake's eyes suddenly began to glow with greed, he couldn't help lick his lips at the thought of the fortune that had come his way.

"And as for you, Lee, since you are looking for a teacher to instruct you on blacksmithing, I would accept you as my disciple if you win" with this a sly smile appeared on his face.

It was at this moment that Lee finally understood, this shameless Master Yang, who so full of himself and arrogant, didn't want to directly ask Lee to be his disciple, that was why he was beating around the bush all along, and now that Bloodsnake had appeared, it gave him an opportunity to act as though Lee was begging to be his disciple!

"Master Yang I accept your offer" Bloodsnake gently chuckled, now he understood. "Now I can understand, it's seems the fool wants Master Yang to be his teacher, hmmph, trash who doesn't know what's good for him, overestimating himself!" Bloodsnake coldly thought.

Lee rose up from the metal seat and walked towards Bloodsnake.

"Master Yang, when should we begin" If it had been in a normal circumstance, Lee would have just walked away, but with the status of Master Yang added to the benefits of learning blacksmithing, he found it hard to resist, but the most important factor was that if he rejected, Master Yang might find it disrespectful, and that might spell trouble for his clan, one should know that Master Yang was the blacksmith of the only bloodline clan in the area of hundreds of kilometers, and so they were a lot feared, with what Master Yang had told him, bloodline clans don't toy with their blacksmiths!

"Lee, don't assume because you were selected by one of the Four ruling sects, you can become haughty, you should know that power is arrogance"

"Let me tell you something you don't know, I'm already in the second stage of spiritual refinement" Bloodsnake chuckled wickedly, to him Master Yang didn't want to Lee to win at all, how much could he have grown in two weeks!

Lee just nodded his head and took a battle stance, Bloodsnake sneered and also readied himself.

"As soon as Lee losses, I would just hand over a rankless weapon to Bloodsnake, and I would then accept Lee later as my disciple, then it would be assumed that I did it out of pity, I'm very smart" With this thought Master Yang grinned like a Cheshire cat.

"I absorbed the blood of a Mystical revolving rhino, and so my defense is extremely tight, those puny weapons of yours would do me no harm"

Lee raised his eyebrows in surprise, the Mystical revolving rhino is a beast which is said to reach the third rank at the limits of its bloodline which is compared to a ring cultivator. "Light Wolf is really rich" Lee couldn't help but sigh. Though the bloodline the lad absorbed was powerful, at his stage the strength he could release was extremely pitiful.

"So I advice you to..."

"Quit talking" before he could complete his words, Lee had immediately interrupted.

"Trash" Bloodsnake yelled and then his body bulged a bit, with this he dashed towards Lee.

Lee smiled, as he pressed his feet on the ground and then pounced forward like a tiger, with a flick of his hands, Blueflame appeared lightning-quick, and then the lad striked the air, immediately icy-blue shadows appeared and pierced towards Bloodsnake like arrows.

"hmmph"

Bloodsnake snorted and then sent his fist like a whip towards the sword shadows, and upon contact the shadows dispersed.

"Is this all yo...." He wasn't allowed to complete his words once again, when Blueflame with a sharp light flashing on the tip suddenly pierced towards him, Bloodsnake was stunned but immediately regained his cool, with this he took a step backward, and suddenly like hammers he sent his twin fist slamming towards Blueflame.
