Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The forging of the Demon King Palace, which was the Lingxiao Treasure Palace that Zhou Shu had planned, had actually been ongoing all along.

But what was happening now was just preparation work.

At least a dozen Great Demons were helping Zhou Shu mine. There were also Zhang Chunlin and the more than a hundred humans, as well as Yao Yi and the 108 demonic beasts from the Nine Heavens Nine Sections, who were processing forging materials day and night.

The method Zhang Chunlin and Zhou Shu had decided on to deal with the forging materials had already begun to show results.

The processing speed of the massive amount of ores had more than doubled.

It had to be said that Zhang Chunlin, a former grand minister of the Great Xia Forging Division, was quite capable.

If he hadn’t been captured by demonic beasts back then, the Great Xia Forging Division might not have declined to that extent.

But then again, if the Great Xia Forging Division hadn’t declined, Zhou Shu’s predecessor might not have died of exhaustion, and the current Zhou Shu might not exist.

Every bite and every sip was preordained. Was it not fate?

“Lord, we now have 448,800 kilograms of processed forging material. And there are 17,750 kilograms of initial composite forging materials…” Zhang Chunlin reported to Zhou Shu. He remembered all the numbers clearly. This was the result of his hard work these days.

“Not bad.” Zhou Shu nodded. “From today onward, I will officially start forging. I need you to help me. You can leave the ore extraction to someone else for now.”

“That’s easy.” Zhang Chunlin nodded. “The ore extraction was carried out in an institutionalized manner from the beginning. Even if I leave, it won’t affect much.”

This was also Zhang Chunlin’s foresight. In the beginning, he had wanted to make the Great Xia Forging Division break away from its dependence on Forging Masters. Later, after twenty years of thinking in the Demon Realm and Zhou Shu’s guidance, he had already implemented all the processes that could be streamlined in forging.

As long as these procedures were followed, even if there were no Forging Masters, they could still be carried out as usual.

With such independence, these jobs both rid themselves of dependence on people and accelerated productivity.

“Lord, can the forging of the Demon King Palace be done in parts? In that case, can we coordinate it with you?” Zhang Chunlin asked out of habit. He had already become used to researching process optimization and always wanted to break down the forging process.

Zhou Shu shook his head. “I can’t split it up. I can leave the processing of the forging materials to others, but only I can do the final forging.”

The Lingxiao Treasure Palace was very important. Not to mention that it couldn’t be split up, even if it could, Zhou Shu definitely wouldn’t do it.

Zhang Chunlin was a little disappointed and continued to ask, “Then, what do you need me to do?”

“You’ll see.” Zhou Shu didn’t say much. He asked Zhang Chunlin to arrange for the forging materials to be transported to his forging room.

Without using a forging furnace, Zhou Shu directly used his Iron Smelting Hands Technique and began to forge.

Zhang Chunlin stayed in Zhou Shu’s forging furnace and acted as a porter!

For several days in a row, Zhang Chunlin had nothing to do except move the forging materials that others had sent to the door to Zhou Shu’s side.

If Zhang Chunlin had ever heard an advertising slogan, he would have said, “I don’t produce forging materials. I’m just a porter of forging materials…”

Fortunately, he had more than 20 years of training, and his endurance was extraordinary. Otherwise, if ordinary Grand Craftsmen did such work, they would have long blown up.

For many days, he worked diligently and didn’t complain.

In fact, Zhang Chunlin understood Zhou Shu’s actions. He even felt honored.

It was obvious that Zhou Shu wasn’t creating the Demon King Palace to give to Hu Li.

Such a secret couldn’t be known by outsiders.

His forging room was now a restricted area.

To be able to enter and leave easily, it was clear he had gained Zhou Shu’s trust.

Zhang Chunlin thus comforted himself.

…

A few days later, Zhou Shu suddenly stopped Zhang Chunlin. “Sir Zhang, there’s something I need you to do.”

Is it finally time??Zhang Chunlin perked up. Am I finally going to do something technical?

“Please tell me, Lord.”

“From now on, forge a Demon King Palace according to this blueprint.” Zhou Shu handed the blueprint to Zhang Chunlin.

“What do you mean?” Zhang Chunlin wondered. “There’s only the blueprint and no secret forging formula. Even if I can forge it, it’s just for show.”

“That’s right. All I want is for it to look good.” Zhou Shu nodded. “As long as it looks exactly the same, it’s fine.

“You don’t have to forge it as a weapon. Think of it as making a model out of forged materials.”

Zhang Chunlin looked at Zhou Shu and came to a realization. “You mean we forge two Demon King Palaces, one real and one fake? With this method, we can take away this massive amount of forging materials without anyone knowing!”

“You got it. That’s the idea.” Zhou Shu nodded. “We can’t really build a Demon King Palace for Hu Li.

“When the time comes, I’ll show the real Lingxiao Treasure Palace to Hu Li. In the end, I’ll leave him with the one you forged.

“There wasn’t any need to go through so much trouble at first. It’s easy for me to escape alone. But with so many of you, it will be quite dangerous if I fall out with Hu Li.”
