Since both of them were a little tired after the test, Meng Yi just took Ji Fan and Hu Tian to get familiar with the sword pavilion, so that it would be easier for them to enter and exit the sword pavilion to study ancient magic texts.

On the wooden stairs, Ji Fan and Hu Tian were flanked by Branch Meng Yi. Meng Yi was introducing Jiange to them.

"The first floor is where Taoist skills are stored. We are about to enter the second floor. This floor is filled with weapons and some knowledge related to the manufacture of spiritual swords! Of course, most of the weapons are spiritual swords."

Ji Fan nodded and followed Meng Yi's gaze. There was basically no one on this floor. Most of the sect disciples were browsing the Taoist techniques on the first floor.

"Do you know why there are so many methods related to sword forging on the second floor?" Meng Yi deliberately put it off, wanting to see how Ji Fan and the others would answer.

"Is there any secret hidden in this?" The person who spoke was Hu Tian. Meng Yi asked him this. It was probably related to practice, so he tried his best to rely on that aspect.

But Meng Yi shook his head, obviously what Hu Tian said was wrong.

"After all, Wanjian Sect has a lot of sword cultivators, and the sword cultivators will have a deep understanding of swords. The method of storing these castings should be normal!"

Ji Fan smiled and then said. He was also a little strange. Only a quarter of the entire second floor displayed some weapons. The rest were filled with rows and rows of bookshelves. He opened a book at random and found all the contents inside.

They all have knowledge about making spiritual swords.

Ji Fan's answer didn't hit the mark, but it was more reliable than Hu Tian's answer.

"Then it's time to reveal the answer. In fact, there is nothing particularly interesting. I regret asking these questions! There are so many sword-making methods on the second floor because the previous casting technology of Wanjian Sect is here.

No one on the mainland can rival him! Every year, many cultivators come to Wanjian Sect to ask for help in making swords."

Meng Yi led the two of them around the second floor and took out a yellowed book from the bookshelf.

He turned the pages gently. The paper had become a little hardened by time. The handwriting on it needed to be carefully identified to know what was written.

"Why are you looking at this? It should have been lost a long time ago." Hu Tian also took down a book from the bookshelf.

Meng Yi glanced at him and said, "If you lose many things, you will never be able to find them again."

"Why not reprint the content on the scroll? And why is the sword-making method of Wanjian Sect no longer popular?"

This is what Ji Fan is most puzzled about. Since the casting technology of Wanjian Sect had reached the ceiling of the mainland at that time, why did it decline?

So which family or sect is doing this business now?

"It's not that it's no longer popular, it's that the old sect master voluntarily gave up the sword-making business." Meng Yi sighed, "And you should all know the largest sword-making industry leader now, the Sixteen Provinces Huang Family!"

Huang family?

Ji Fan really didn't know about this and was a little surprised. When asked what weapon is used most by cultivators, the answer is definitely the sword.

Among weapons, swords are both convenient for carrying and useful for combat.

The Huang family controls the casting process, so they should be able to occupy the majority of weapons manufacturing!

Can……

"The old sect master gave up the competition with the Huang family...why?" Ji Fan was more interested in what happened next, especially about the Huang family.

Meng Yi put back the book in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and said, "The Huang family bribed the old sect leader's friends in some way. After the Wanjian Sect's only swordsmith left, they had skills but no real craftsmanship.

people."

"The old sect leader tried to train another master. Although he succeeded, the Huang family threatened the old sect leader that if the Wanjian Sect continued to get involved in the sword-making industry, they would kill his old friend."

"Is it because of this incident that the old sect leader gave up making swords?" Ji Fan felt a little tight in his chest after listening to Meng Yi's narration.

"Can a friend who betrayed him still be called a friend?" If Ji Fan were in the position of the old sect leader, he would definitely not care about that guy's life and death. Those who betray him do not deserve to be forgiven.

"Humph, you think too simply." Hu Tian never intervened after Meng Yi mentioned the Huang family. It was only now that he couldn't help but stand up and oppose Ji Fan's point of view.

"Do you really think that there will be people in this world who would give up their lives for their friends? The old sect leader gave up the sword-making industry. There are probably reasons you don't know. To be able to achieve the position of a sect leader is not simple. They understand

Living a lonely life is something you can’t imagine out of thin air!”

Hu Tian gave a long speech and debated with Ji Fan. This time it was no longer a simple mockery. In Meng Yi's eyes, the two of them were really exchanging ideas.

Both of them think more rationally, Hu Tian's thoughts are more realistic than Ji Fan's.

On this continent, there are always teams that are betrayed while fighting for treasures.

Hu Tian's idea was too absolute. He had seen many people who died trying to save teammates, friends, and relatives while blocking powerful enemies.

Until the last moment, he didn't see any regret on their faces.

If he really had to take sides, he would definitely choose Ji Fan. Because he has a very good friend. If one day the Huang family uses the same method to bribe him.

He would not let Luo Yunlin have so many things to worry about.

After this little episode, Meng Yi didn't look for any topics or ask any questions.

Otherwise, you will have to spend the evening after visiting Jiange.

He led Ji Fan and Xiao Jian upstairs and then walked into a huge room.

There are no bookshelves in this room, only tables arranged in circles, and the things on the tables are all ancient magic texts.

Several deacons were currently debating the content they had just analyzed. It seemed that they did not get a consistent result, and everyone was blushing and thick-necked.

One of them was arguing. He glanced at the stairs and saw three people walking towards this direction, secretly reminding the other two deacons.

"Brother Meng!"

The three deacons greeted Meng Yi politely.

"In the future, we will have two new members in our research team!" Meng Yi said with a smile.

"We will definitely cooperate fully with the two of them in their research!" the deacon who first discovered Meng Yi said with a smile.

"That guy Luo Yunlin has already conveyed the news?" Meng Yi was a little surprised.

The deacon nodded.

Meng Yi was a little surprised at Luo Yunlin's speed in doing things. This guy kept procrastinating on things, except for practicing, but there was only one thing that made him serious enough.

This time he put matters related to Ji Fan in the second most important position.

This old friend of mine really pinned all her hopes on him! Alas... Meng Yi sighed and glanced at Ji Fan.

Ji Fan and Hu Tian's attention was focused on Meng Yi at this time. His sigh could not escape their senses, as the reason was probably because he encountered something disturbing.

Neither of them thought to ask, and Ji Fan didn't know that Meng Yi was not upset at all, but because he was highly valued by the sect master and worried that the pressure on him would be too great.

There was nothing to introduce after that. He was just a beginner in the study of ancient magic texts. He couldn't explain why. Meng Yi took Ji Fan and Meng Yi for a casual walk and then left.

The three deacons also left the Jiange, probably to change places to quarrel.
