Chapter 437: The Luxury Offering from the President, Luxuriant Harvest for Qian Jin.

Yunxing Huisheng nodded his head appreciatively, telling himself that the young boy of his favor was really different from others. Generally, when a person came across something thorny or embarrassing, he would either feel timid to acknowledge the truth or deny the fact or try endless means to shake off his responsibilities, all of which were the manifestation of cravenness.

“I struck down Ray Yue and the leader of the Ray Family who tried to take revenge on me but was killed by Uncle Fabreidis.” Qian Jin shrugged his shoulders. “Several days ago, some members of the Ray Family, together with Ray Guamin, headed to the Torrent Battle Fort and tried to finish me off. If I join the Yulee Blacksmith Union under the nominal command of Ray Guamin… hehe… if I were Ray Guamin, I would spare no efforts to kill my enemies.”

“Is this all that baffles you?” Yunxing Huisheng wore an enlightened look and laughed out loud. “You don’t need to worry about it at all. I invite you to join the Yulee Blacksmith Union not in the name of getting a membership, but taking up the post of the president.”

What? Qian Jin couldn’t hold back his astonishment for this piece of news. To tell the truth, upon first sight of this president of the Yulee Blacksmith Union, he felt by instinct that he was a different type of person than Ray Guamin was. That was to say, he carried a strong infatuation for forging.

That was why Qian Jin tried his luck with presenting his forging proficiencies in front of him. To remain low profile brought nothing but the being looked down upon by others and the endless harassment from the disgusting good-for-nothing scums.

To suffer the ongoing beating from the Ray Family wasn’t Qian Jin’s style. For him, no opportunities to strike back should be spared. Previously he intended to make contact with and leave a strong impression on this president, to seek chances for serving as an assisting elder of the Blacksmith Union.

But at no point had Qian Jin thought of Mr. Yunxing Huisheng to be a man of such thrilling guts in promising him the president’s post of the Yulee Blacksmith Union.

The current president of Yulee Blacksmith Union, the one standing in front of him, was willing to give out his post to have Qian Jin join the union?

Well… Qian Jin eventually understood why Yunxing Huisheng, someone with weak warring power, impressed him by a strong aura at the first sight.

Luxurious. Such a luxurious offer. Was it someone else who was serving as the president of Yulee Blacksmith Union, he might promise Qian Jin the post of a manager or even the vice president. But Yunxing Huisheng was trying to take him in with the president’s post.

“As long as you take up the president’s post, Ray Guamin will serve as your subordinates.” Yunxing Huisheng said straightforwardly. “By that time he has to listen to you, or chooses to leave the Blacksmith Union.”

Qian Jin tried with great efforts to calm himself down. Though he had already prepared himself for succeeding the Torrent Battle Fort from Uncle Marc, or Wudo Group from Uncle Jun Wudo, the news that he was chosen to take over the presidency of the Blacksmith Union was as shocking as could be.

Each and every major force in Yulee City carried inestimable strength which was embodied not only in wealth and combat power, but also a huge social network which was much more compelling than the superficial wealth.

Yet the Torrent Battle Fort itself was not enough to counter the Qian Family which had stood as a huge pain in the ass to all demonkind for years.

Similarly, neither Wudo Group nor the Yulee Blacksmith Union was cared for by the Qian Family, whereas the alliance of the Torrent Battle Fort, Wudo Group, and the Yulee Blacksmith Union wasn’t the rival of the powerful Qian Family either. However, to the other forces, these three constituted an undoubtedly strong force.

Qian Jin pondered for few seconds and then looked at Yunxing Huisheng in surprise. “Mr. Yunxing, could you please tell me why are you granting me the seat of Yulee Blacksmith Union President?”

Yunxing Huisheng felt strong feelings toward this young person called Qian Jin. Should York Leigh be offered this post, he would feel so exhilarated as to lose all sense of directions.

But Qian Jin, despite his young age, was able to keep calm and inquire for the hidden reason in front of such huge allure.

“Here are three reasons.” Yunxing Huisheng poked out the forefinger and middle finger of his right hand. “You may be confused with the first one. I started an investigation on you ever since my disciple complained about you to me. The little boy Ray Guamin thought that I had him as the only way of collecting information. Well, in fact, as the president of the Blacksmith Union, I have more information channels than he could ever imagine.”

All of a sudden, the aura of this Blacksmith Union President was changed. Instead of standing there as a veteran blacksmith immersed in forging, he had turned into a high-ranking figure with indomitable bearings typical of powerful leaders.

“My disciple has great flairs in forging. Pitifully…” Yunxing Huisheng swung his forefinger with a lamenting look. “He couldn’t concentrate on forging, and thinks me as an old man who only has eyes for forging.”

“I have your experiences to my fingertip.” Yunxing Huisheng suddenly raised his eyebrow. “You are a good person in nature and this is of supreme importance. The Blacksmith Union won’t be handed over to an unprincipled person, who might betray his country and sell weapons to the Demons or Barbarians for his own benefits.”

“Originally, I was merely curious to know whether you were good at forging. In case you proved to possess the appropriate qualities, I would take you as my apprentice. However…” Yunxing Huisheng said while smiling in a bitter way, feeling it awkward that he was intending to take Qian Jin as his apprentice. Given Qian Jin’s forging realm, it was he himself who ought to call the other one “master”.

“Were it not for knowing that you wouldn’t take me as an apprentice…” Yunxing Huisheng wore a scornful smile. “I would adopt you as my master.”

To adopt him as the master? Qian Jin kept shaking his hands. Despite his little understanding about Yunxing Huisheng, he could judge from the way York Leigh treated him that he enjoyed a high reputation. To take him as the apprentice? Wouldn’t those people who adored Yunxing Huisheng tear him to pieces? Though he had no fear for getting on the wrong side of others, he saw no need to make so many enemies needlessly.

“Mutual learning and communication…” Qian Jin said hurriedly. “I got a lot of inspiration from your Junyang Sword. So it’s mutual learning and communication from each other.”

Yunxing Huisheng released a nonchalant smile. For someone of his age, nothing except for the hatred of having one’s wife killed or the extermination of the entire family couldn’t be amended. With regards to forging techniques, in particular, he attached no importance to the so-called fame, as all he cared about was ascending into a God-tier Blacksmith Master with unremitting dedication.

“In this way, why not call me brother instead of a so-called master.” Yunxing Huisheng said lightly. “I will call you younger brother rather than master.”

Qian Jin lifted his fists around his chest and made a bow with a smile, “Then I will just shamelessly refer to you as my older brother.”

Yunxing Huisheng acquiesced Qian Jin’s bow and didn’t do the same as a hypocritical etiquette. “Apart from your personality and your forging fortes, there is one more factor. The God-tier Blacksmith Master Competition will be soon upon us. In recent years, the contestants from the Yulee Blacksmith Union keep changing. As I’m getting older and older, the Yulee Blacksmith Union might be deprived of the judges’ seats and only left with the right to take part in the game.”

“What’s more, the Yulee Blacksmith Union has been performing poorly in recent years.” Yunxing Huisheng released a sigh. “As a judge, it’s not permissible for me to leave the judge’s seat and compete with others in forging techniques.”

“So am I required to take part in the competition in the name of the Yulee Blacksmith Union?”

“No no no.” Yunxing Huisheng waved his hands repeatedly. “To attend the competition with your proficiencies is unfair to others. I’m taking you there to serve as the judge. Ahead of this, you may tour around in the union to see whether there are people with decent qualities who might be able to take part in the competition after instruction from you.”

Unfair? Qian Jin lowered his head to look at his palms. If his performance on forging stood as unfair for other contestants, the forging competences of Uncle Blake would scare the competing blacksmiths to death instantaneously.

“So, if you have no other questions, please just join the Yulee Blacksmith Union.” Yunxing Huisheng looked at Qian Jin seriously. “I’m aged and I do not know how long I can sustain this life. Before our first encounter today, I have already accumulated some knowledge about you. Young boy, it doesn’t matter if you care about my business or not, but you won’t let your father down. Will you?”

Qian Jin’s body trembled all of a sudden, as he turned to look at this weather-beaten Forge Master in great shock. His agonies in the Qian Family were largely kept secret by Qian ZHanxuan, known only to those who cared for him from the very beginning. How could this old man…

“I wonder if you were trying to draw my attention by confessing to me the tricks of forging just now.” Yunxing Huisheng patted Qian Jin on the shoulder softly. “You are really outstanding. I have to say that I have been deeply moved by your skills, as well as your courage exposed under the suppression of the Qian Family. A lot of blacksmiths are taking pride in making armament for bloodline warriors nowadays, but they lack the cognition that every warrior is equal in front of weapons.”

Qian Jin looked at Yunxing Huisheng blankly, feeling shocked that this old man who seemed to be exclusively engaged in forging harbored something no one knew. In this sense, what he had done just now seemed a little childish.

“You have done a good job.” Yunxing Huisheng walked with Qian Jin shoulder to shoulder, laying his coarse hand at Qian Jin’s back. “It’s beyond any blame to do so for your father, failing which you will be cursed. So now, will you accept the invitation of serving as the president of the Yulee Blacksmith Union without any psychological burden?”

Qian Jin looked at Yunxing Huisheng with gratitude. Apart from adding to the strength of the Yulee Blacksmith Union, this old man was also trying to help him by doing so. He, as someone completely unfamiliar with Qian Jin, showed such candid warmth and support for him… but the people of the Qian Family with whom he grew up… they…
