一女战三老外一女战三黑人

He entered the city-state and made his way to the foundry.

Even in the cold winter, Zhu Minglang maintained the good habit of tempering his casting art. Little White and Little Qing Zhuo could both have a set of armor suited to their attributes, as long as all the materials were gathered. The rest was a matter of his own craftsmanship.

Ever since the moving romantic love story of their instant connection and mutual affection spread throughout the academy, the citizens’ attitude toward Zhu Minglang was no longer as hostile as before. There were even some who believed the story to be true and constantly sought to curry favor with him.

Zhu Minglang preferred to keep a low profile on ordinary days, not wanting these matters to disturb his state of mind for cultivation. So even now, as he went to the foundry, he merely greeted a few familiar people before diving headlong into the work of the furnace fire.

The effects of the Spiritual Realm Fruit were extremely significant. Zhu Minglang’s spiritual power had increased by quite a bit, making it easier to temper the scales that required the infusion of spiritual power.

The Dragon Mother had given Zhu Minglang a Green Inverse Scale, which was a rare item, as one might not find such a scale even after slaying dozens of dragons.

It was a pity, however, that this Inverse Scale could not be used to make Dragon Armor; Dragon Armor required larger scales. Selling it seemed unprofitable no matter the price, so in the end, Zhu Minglang decided to make it into an Inverse Green Soft Armor for his own protection.

Zhu Minglang had been working on this Inverse Green Soft Armor for some time now, and recently he had realized just how unskilled he had been before…

The size and scale materials both had significant deviations.

If he forcibly matched it with other materials, it would only result in many weaknesses in the Inverse Green Soft Armor, limiting its effectiveness.

“Zhu Minglang, Zhu Minglang.” Outside the casting room, Master Zhao Long knocked on the door as if he had some good news for Zhu Minglang.

“What is it, Master Zhao Long?” Zhu Minglang did not come to the door but shouted from inside.

“Have you heard? Your Female Monarch is returning to the city, ” Master Zhao Long also called out loudly.

“Ah?? Great news!” Zhu Minglang replied.

“Why are you still cooped up in there, not going to the southern part of the city to meet her earlier?” Master Zhao Long seemed even more anxious than Zhu Minglang himself.

“There’s no need, no need, she…’

“Oh, I see, are you making her an Armor of Love? I saw you with a half-finished small armor some time ago, and I never would have guessed. Did you know through letters long ago that the Female Monarch was coming back, so you’re working hard these days just to give her a surprise? What a romantic, you young people!” Master Zhao Long suddenly exclaimed as he understood.

The door suddenly opened, Zhu Minglang’s face slightly reddish from the heat of the forge.

He glanced at Master Zhao Long.

Turning his head, Zhu Minglang looked back at the Inverse Green Armor that was obviously too small for him to wear and thought of Li Yunzi’s delicate and graceful figure…

Indeed, why was he being so stubborn?

Making a woman’s soft armor was just the thing, wasn’t it?

He had never had the chance to thank Li Yunzi for the enrollment letter she sent him. For someone like her who often found herself on the battlefield, how could she be without a good soft scale armor?

Moreover, he had fabricated the story of their instant connection and mutual affection, which had already spread throughout the city. She had been on the southern battlefield previously and had no time to hold him to account…

When the time came and he offered this precious armor to her, if she had any dissatisfaction, it would be dispelled. If she didn’t mind, wouldn’t that make things even more perfect and sweet?

A fair lady, a gentleman’s good match.

Even though some things had taken their course, Zhu Minglang felt that it was appropriate to take some initiative in a fitting manner. What the outcome would be he couldn’t yet say, but surely making a good connection couldn’t be wrong.

He continued to strive hard, taking advantage of the days before Li Yunzi’s arrival in the city, to quickly finish this Armor of Love… the Inverse Green Treasure Armor!

Luckily, he had always been a man of meticulous attention to detail.

If he were to make clothes for another woman, Zhu Minglang might not necessarily get the size just right.

But for Li Yunzi, it should be no problem.

The mountain flowers were dazzling, and the leaves in the forest serene in their beauty. The autumn nan trees had grown fuzz-like buds that changed a little each day. Yet not every change was watched daily by an attentive eye, slowly savoring the unfolding romance beneath the trees.

Standing by a light-colored wall beneath the autumn nan tree, Zhu Minglang was clad in clean garb, looking up in admiration at the branches and leaves sliding down the rooftiles.

A maiden approached and, upon seeing Zhu Minglang, standing august and bright, couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised.

He seemed different from when she first met him, even his disposition seemed softer and more refined than before.

“Mr. Zhu, my miss said that she really likes your gift,” Frost said with a polite bow as she addressed Zhu Minglang.

“Then please convey my regards to your miss,” Zhu Minglang said, nodding with satisfaction.

“Why not tell her yourself?” Frost asked with a light laugh.

“Isn’t she injured and not seeing anyone?” Zhu Minglang asked in confusion.

“Are you, someone else?” Frost blinked her eyes teasingly.

Zhu Minglang’s face turned red, obviously, the maid had heard the wonderful stories that Zhu Minglang had crafted all by himself.

Being invited into the courtyard should be considered a great honor; after all, the courtyards of wealthy families never welcomed any men, and even some relatives had to stay away.

Yet for some reason, as he stepped into the courtyard, Zhu Minglang felt a bit cautious.

In his mind, he recalled the lieutenant who had lost an ear…

Upon entering, would he witness Li Yunzi’s swordsmanship that he couldn’t forget?

There was a thin screen, and Zhu Minglang had thought they would be separated by it, but Li Yunzi wasn’t fond of such cumbersome social decorum. She invited Zhu Minglang to sit in front of the house while the maid Frost brewed two cups of clear tea.

Listening to Frost’s light footsteps, she must have walked away, perhaps intentionally.

Zhu Minglang drank a cup of tea, his gaze wandering elsewhere.

He wasn’t sure if he felt like a thief or if he was simply admiring the uniqueness of the courtyard’s residence.

“This return has been much more pleasant than the last. At least I haven’t heard any vulgar language,” Li Yunzi smiled, realizing that the man before her was actually quite good at playing dumb.

“You know, I’ve always been quite skilled at acting,” Zhu Minglang said, slowly smiling as well.

“Really? The night encounter in the bamboo forest, the exchange of tokens of affection, was it all just an act for the occasion?” Li Yunzi sipped her tea.

Zhu Minglang’s smile gradually stiffened on his face.

There were sweet stories and scandals as well.

Nan Lingsha’s words from before had been twisted beyond recognition by the rumor mills, mutating from the gift of a disabled dragon to an exchange of tokens of affection.. Even though most now believed in Zhu Minglang’s narrative of instant rapport and mutual affection, there were still rumors that Zhu Minglang, a scoundrel at heart, was hopping from one side to the other, playing two ends against the middle!
