The Ghost of Fog
Chapter 22. The Snow Goddess Sword

"This is your sword." Said the grandfather after he and Lin Tian walked into the inner room.

"Thank you very much Sir."

Lin Tian received the sword and twirled around to see the polish on the scabbard.

The scabbard and the handle of the sword are dark brown, with a little decoration and beautiful carvings in golden yellow. Seeing this, Lin Tian was only able to look in astonishment without being able to utter words.

On the handle of the sword there is also a light blue ronce decoration that seems to be made with silk thread material. Lin Tian was a little astonished because as he remembered he had never ordered the decoration.

"Sorry sir, I don't remember ordering this decoration?" Ask while holding the ronce.

"What's wrong.That's okay.just take a gift from me." The old man replied graciously.

Lin Tian only frowned looking in astonishment at the grandfather in front of him. But he did not bother and preferred to re-examine his new sword.

After a while, it was time for Lin Tian to look at the blade of the sword. His hand trembled as his fingers touched the handle of the sword prepared to pull it out.

Lin Tian's hands trembled like that because this young man was very nervous and guessed what the shape of the sword blade would look like. Considering the form of the raw crystal alone is very beautiful especially when used as a sword.

"Look, why hesitate?." Grandpa finally asked. He was also impatient to see Lin Tian's reaction after seeing the sword he created.

Lin Tian looked at the grandfather then nodded his head.

After sighing a few times, he finally pulled out the sword and straightened his eyes so amazed and amazed at the beauty of the sword.

It was seen that the blade of the sword was pure white shining, having a length of about seventy centi and a width of about three centi. The blade had two eyes all of which looked extremely sharp and deadly.

At the base of the sword blade was seen a very beautiful and charming snowflake carving. Even more powerful, if you look at the sword is indeed white, but if you pay attention to it more carefully, as if it looks another color that is bright blue.

Once plucked from the sheath, the blade of the sword let out a cool, soothing air. It is very different as when it is still in the form of a crystal whose aura alone is able to make people stiff with cold.

"Hehe...how? Great right?" Asked the grandfather while puffing his chest a little thinking of himself.

"Honestly it was my best work as long as I was a blacksmith." Further.

"It's pretty...." Mumbled Lin Tian involuntarily who was still staring at his new sword with eyes twinkling with admiration.

Hearing the murmur that came out of Lin Tian's mouth, the grandfather nodded his head while smiling happily.

"As I said earlier, the sword is my best work. Therefore, give him a name, son, he will be your most loyal friend more than anything." Grandpa said back.

Hearing the grandfather's words, Lin Tian regained his admiration and frowned. He thought what name would best match this sword?.

A very beautiful sword with a blade of cold crystal sword taken from the highest peak of the mountains. A peak that was always covered by a thick blanket of snow. Lin Tian thought as he propped up his chin to think of a name that fit all of those realities.

Not long after, Lin Tian smiled widely and his face looked radiant. Presumably this young man had already found a suitable name for his new sword.

"Hm...? Have you thought of a name?" Asked the grandfather who was aware of the change in look on Lin Tian's face.

"Yes...I found it!!" Reply Lin Tian spirit.

"Hoho..what's that?"

"Because of its beauty, and since the main ingredient of this sword blade came from the top of the snowy mountains, then this sword will be named...."Lin Tian paused for a moment to take a breath, this made the old man even more anxious and curious.

"Snow Goddess Sword!!" Said Lin Tian firmly and steadily.

"Hahaha.great, good name." Grandpa said while laughing.

"The Snow Goddess Sword will forever accompany you both when it's good and hard, so take good care of her!!" He resumed his words.

"Of course!!"

...****************...

"Excuse me sir if I am presumptuous, but I am very curious why did those warriors attack Master? What's the matter with you with them?" Lin Tian asked expressing his curiosity.

He was actually not curious about the attackers to the grandfather. But he was more curious as to why the black warriors had stormed just when there was a conflict between the Xiao family and the Hu family. That's why this young man took the initiative to ask the matter between the grandfather and the attackers. He thought if the possibility of both of these things had something to do.

Hearing the question Lin Tian asked, the grandfather did not immediately reply. There was only the repeated sighs of the grandfather.

After a while, he finally said, "Huh. Before that I want to know first what is your name? My name is Gong Fai."

"Call me Lin Tian."

"Well Lin Tian, my story will probably be long, won't it matter?" Grandpa asked back.

"No problem sir, tell me."

"Huh.so like this..."

Gong Fai started his story and Lin Tian just silently listened.

According to Gong Fai, he was attacked by black warriors because he was considered a traitor, which is why they all held a grudge against him and wanted to kill him.

"What, you're considered a traitor? Whatchu mean?" Lin Tian asked confused by the grandfather's opening story.

He then continued his story. Gong Fai admitted that he was a member of the Black Alliance who became the scourge of evil in the martial world.

This grandfather also said that the Black faction Alliance had existed for a long time, but had always moved secretly and secretly. And it is only now that they dare to show their existence.

Gong Fai said that back when he was in an alliance, he was not a disembodied warrior. On the contrary, he is a warrior who belongs to a leader in an alliance whose power is exactly under the chairman and vice chairman, which is why none of the alliance members dare to mess with him.

But a few years ago, more precisely ten years ago. He chose to leave the alliance with eight of his students who were currently workers at the Southern Blacksmiths.

Hearing up to here, knew Lin Tian if the man with the axe and the seven other people who were helping the battle were disciples of Gong Fai.

"After months of escape, we're finally here and we're opening this shop to connect our lives." The grandfather continued his story.

"But I never thought that this shop would become a very famous blacksmith shop. Maybe this is why the alliance can find out our hideout and storm here." Continue Gong Fai with a sad face.

Lin Tian frowned. Something was strange, he thought.

"But sir, I think this store has been famous for a long time. But why did the alliance dare to attack?" Finally Lin Tian said.

"I know that. They did not dare to attack since there was a powerful family here protecting this city, the Xiao Family. But somehow because of what they suddenly dare to attack like this." Gong Fai answered Lin Tian's question which ended with a long sigh.

"What might have something to do with the Hu family?" Lin Tian's chirps were suddenly oblivious to his own words.

Gong Fai frowned after hearing Lin Tian's words. Then he said, "What's up?"

Lin Tian was surprised and realized he had slipped.

"No, it's nothing." The answer is a little bit of a doubt.

What Lin Tian meant was about the Hu family meeting back then. Xiao Mei said that Hu Kai said that the son of the previous leader had an affair with one of the Beautiful Twins of Satan who was a member of the Black Group Alliance.

However, he knew that it was all Hu Kai's fairy tale and that it was likely that the Hu family leader had turned the truth upside down. It was a fact that he himself was the one allied with the Black faction Alliance.

If that was the case, it was no wonder that the Black faction Alliance dared to take revenge against Gong Fai who was still in the Xiao family's territory. Apart from being made up of strong people, they also had the support of one of the other ruling families, the Hu family.

Even now they have the Beautiful Twins of Satan who is also a grandfather of the black martial world or commonly known as the Pillar of Hell.

Since all of this information was still confidential, Lin Tian finally preferred to keep his mouth shut and not explain it further.

"Well...All right if you don't want to say it. But I want to tell you Lin Tian, be careful because your face is already known to them. You also showed your cleverness by slaughtering many of them. So, most likely they will continue to hunt you for revenge." Gong Fai said seriously to give advice.

"Yes, I already know that." Lin Tian replied firmly while nodding his head.

"Then, thank you for everything and I'll excuse you sir." Said Lin Tian who had risen to his feet and saluted.

When this young man had already reached the door, he stopped his steps due to the sudden words from Gong Fai.

"Lin Tian, disguise your identity. When you get out of this Stone Town, lest anyone else find out your true identity. Change your name, cover your face with a mask, a piece of cloth, a sack of rice or whatever is important lest anyone see your real face. It's all for your safety." Grandpa said very seriously.

Lin Tian simply remained silent and nodded his head in response. But he again had to stop his steps when he heard the voice of the grandfather.

"Oh yes Lin Tian, actually the most important thing for you is a face cover." Said Gong Fai with a strange smile.

"You mean?"

"Hehe..you know Lin Tian? Your face is very handsome and I am sure there will be many girls who are captivated by your charm. So while you are young, wear a mask so you will not become a criminal....Ahahahah!!" The grandfather said it ended with a thunderous laugh.

Red face Lin Tian heard that remark. If had this grandfather in front of him not been someone who had made a sword for him, perhaps Lin Tian had already released his fist towards that person's face.

Lin Tian felt annoyed at the extremely piercing words from Gong Fai, let alone when he heard the word 'villain' from the grandfather's mouth.

In Lin Tian's hearing, the grandfather seemed to say, "Because he is still young, wear a mask so that the girls don't know your face. Because if until it happens and your mind is still not strong, you can be a child rapist."

Of course, even if only joking, but this speech is very demeaning. He wanted to curse but was cut off first by Gong Fai.

"Lin Tian, if in the future you need help, don't hesitate to come here. We of the Southern Blacksmiths will always help you." The grandfather said with a warm smile.

"Oh...I just remembered, you don't want to ask the price of your sword? are you going to steal huh!!??" Keep that grandpa.

Lin Tian was also surprised to hear that remark. Being too engrossed in chatting, he had forgotten not to ask for the fee to be paid for making his sword.

Seeing the shock on Lin Tian's face, Gong Fai laughed and said, "Hahaha. You saved my life with my students, it's all so much more expensive than a sword in your hand." The grandfather said with a laugh.

"It is now I who owe you. Don't you pay! I give you the sword and with it, be a great warrior of justice. If until I raise your name to become a black swordsman, I will drag you to hell!!" Gong Fai said firmly.

Lin Tian looked with wide eyes in disbelief, this sword given to him for free? Really great!!.

Lin Tian then looked at his sword for a moment then nodded his head and replied solemnly, "You take it easy Sir, I will engrave my name on the peak of the martial world as a valiant defender of the truth. I swear!!"

"Good Hahahaha.....!!"

After that Lin Tian opened the door and immediately flashed away from it accompanied by the sound of the laughter of the great-grandfather, Gong Fai.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
