Weapon seller in the world of magic Chapter 356

Silence filled the carriage traveling at the front as Qin Yu became completely honest with Mark, who left Song Yue and joined the other one.

The crown prince expected to get snubbed by Mark after revealing his current situation, but instead, he saw the weapon seller break into a peal of laughter and commented, "It is perfect, Prince Yu. It made my job a lot easier."

Qin Yu misunderstood that he was being mocked by him too and felt a bit angry. However, in the next moment, his eyes widened as Mark continued to say, "How about I solve your problems? There's a simple solution."

"Eh? What do you mean?" Qin Yu wondered whether Mark was suggesting the assassination of the fourth prince and he planned to reject the idea as he was against such a thing. Not to mention, the repercussions in case the plan will fail. Thankfully, he didn't voice it out and his patience rewarded him quite well.

The misunderstandings cleared when the weapon seller went on to explain the details of his proposition.

"500 battle tanks are nothing… I can provide you with manpower, better weapons, and required ammunition. You just need to establish a guild.

The robots are puppets that won't betray their owners like the people. You can trust them and create a private force that will be loyal to only you and no one else. They will be strong enough to contend against any army with only a few weeks of training.

Using your influence, bring tasks to your guild and then complete them using your army. The more your fame grows, the more elite adventures will be willing to join your guild. Eventually, it leads to support from the ministers and nobles.

Now, the only question that is remaining is, are you willing to put your future in the hands of a stranger like me?" Mark asked while looking straight into the eyes of Qin Yu.

The crown prince of the Kun Empire was obviously tempted by the offer laid out by Mark. It felt like a devil's whisper and he who was on his wit's end couldn't resist the offer, fearing that the opportunity will disappear once again

Mark expected Qin Yu to ask for time but the latter only thought for five seconds and gave a nod, "I'm willing, Owner Lu. As long as you are on my side, I'm confident that I will gain everything that I have lost."

Mark let out a smile, inwardly rejoicing that he easily acquired a puppet that he needed, and then said, "As a gift for the beginning of our friendship (more like the beginning of Qin Yu's servitude), today, I will do you a favor. If you are lucky, perhaps, you might have a small victory against your brother."

"Hmm?"

Imperial Palace of Jingyu;

The Emperor of the Kun Empire was in the middle of having tea with an old man. The latter was a grand elder of the Xianshu sect and he visited the palace to formally invite the emperor to the Dragon warrior tournament.

The opening ceremony and the finals are both equally important days for the tournament. Hence, the sect elders wanted the Emperor to grace them with his presence.

Other than that, there was one more thing that the old man wanted to discuss with Emperor Qin Mo.

It is about the fourth prince, Qin Zhi's marriage. Unlike the families living in cities, sects weren't interested in things like marriage and having kids, etc... The members of the sects were usually more interested in finding a cultivation partner.

The top sects have these qualitative dual cultivation techniques that will help a couple to speed up their cultivation progress if they practice it together. There will also be several other benefits and it cannot be practiced just with anyone.

As someone said to be born with enormous potential, it is impossible for Prince Qin Zhi to stay single with everyone having eyes on him for different reasons.

"Your Majesty, our Xie Mei will legally turn adult (16 years) in a couple of months and Patriarch Xie wanted his granddaughter to be wed to Prince Zhi and both of them to become cultivation partners."

Emperor Qin was slightly surprised, not because of a marriage proposal but more because of the fact that the girl is just 15 right now. She is just a teenager. And his son is atleast twelve years older.

By the time she enter her mid-20s, an ideal age for marriage (in his opinion), Qin Zhi would be already in his late thirties.

However, he cannot make fun of the guest's mindset when it was his ancestors who wrote that rule in the empire's constitution in the first place. Moreover, he had to be careful when dealing with a supreme realm expert.

Hence, Emperor Qin tried a different method to reject the proposal.

He grabbed his chin as if he was contemplating and said, "Hmm… Xie Mei, huh? Can't believe the little girl already reached that age. I guess time flew very quickly.

As far as Xie Mei is concerned, I have no problems with her. Just like my son, she is also considered the heavenly child with the potential to become a demigod. They are a good match.

However, when I talked with my son about his marriage, he informed me that he is fond of Princess Shen Ling of the Western Moon kingdom.

Soon, we are already planning to send a marriage proposal to King Shen. It would be extremely unfair for a girl like Xie Mei to end up as a secondary consort."

Emperor Qin thought that this guest would back away after hearing this explanation but little did he expect that he would be the one to get surprised instead.

"But, Your Majesty, Princess Shen Ling was already engaged to that weapon seller. How could Western Moon even accept your proposal?" The supreme realm expert responded with a question. He looked at the emperor as if the latter had gone crazy for going to do such a stupid thing.

"Eh? Weapon seller? Who?" Emperor Qin looked clueless on the matter.

The supreme realm expert felt the urge to slap his forehead but forcefully calmed himself down with a deep breath and explained, "Those chunks of metallic puppets you snatched from the crown prince and gave to Prince Zhi were actually sold by the weapon seller named Lu Zhen.

He is a commoner from Phoenix Empire with no special background but surprisingly has a supreme being on his side and sells powerful weapons known as firearms.

If I should say, those things he introduced to the world should be called an abomination as they defy all the hard work our ancestors had done over the centuries to create fighting techniques.

King Shen Niu might have not made an official announcement but it is true that he betrothed his daughter to Lu Zhen. "

The supreme realm expert had a serious look on his face as he warned the emperor to not go with the proposal.

Meanwhile, Emperor Qin quietly stared at the old man with a goatee as if he wanted to say, aren't you guys mountain dwellers who were cut off from the rest of the world? How in the hell is it that you guys know so much about the matters of the south when he, the emperor of Kun was left in dark?

With the matter of Shen Ling being resolved, the supreme realm expert then once again urged the emperor to consider the Xianshu sect's proposal.

The Emperor now was thinking about how to respond. It was at that moment; a soldier entered the room and informed him that the crown prince is requesting an audience.
