Chapter 10: Goodbye Iron Fishing Village!

Yi Xiong then put out four items from his spatial ring and gives it to Yi Xiang

Two of them are books, one of them is a torn piece of paper, and another one is an ordinary cross necklace

Yi Xiong said: "Son, soon you are going to go to Nightmoon city and you will wander very far away from this place after that, so I would like to pass my legacy and dream to you, I hope you can achieve something that I once dream to achieve"

Yi Xiong continued: "These two books are the only remaining 'Alien Blacksmithing Manual' in this world. This two-book are filled weapon and equipment blueprints, the thick book contains the blueprint for all weapon and equipment up to Black Steel ranked weapon, as for another book that is not as thick as the first one, it contains the blueprint for weapon and equipment from bronze to gold ranked tier"

Yi Xiang replied: "Dad, why is it called 'Alien Blacksmithing Manual'?"

Yi Xiong replied: "Because all the weapon and equipment blueprint in this manual are not originated from the 3 great kingdoms in this continent but from the combination of all unique weapons and equipment from small villages, small sects, and other origins outside of the 3 great kingdoms"

Yi Xiong continued while explaining the torn piece of paper in front of them: "Since you already helped me for so long in forging weapons and equipment, you should be able to forge the weapon if you have enough resources in Night Moon city, and this one, this torn piece of paper is an incomplete piece of legendary blueprint I wished to complete in my lifetime but I was not able to. This blueprint is rumored to be shattered into 24 pieces, it is also rumored that this blueprint is the foundation on forging weapon as might as 'Ultimate Scarlet Shield' that was wielded by the previous South Sea Emperor. The name of this blueprint is 'Ultimate way of Weaponry'. Today I am passing my dream to you, I hope you can fulfil my dream and show me the ultimate weapon before I left this world, Yi Xiang"

Yi Xiang feels touched upon hearing his father unfinished dream and said: "Dad, I will try my best finding the remaining piece of the blueprint, I will not let you down, when I become top-ranked monster hunter, nothing in this world can stop, not even a Gold ranked tier monster. I will find the remaining pieces and forge the weapon!"

Yi Xiong nods with smile on his face and replied: "Good son, now as for the last item, this necklace I want to give to you, this is Griffin Cross necklace, this necklace is made from ordinary metal but it has been tempered with blood of Holy Griff, although it only has a very low White/Holy property within it. I hope it can protect you on your journey"

Holy Griff is a rare subspecies of Griffon, it has silver coloured body and feathers, unlike ordinary Griffon that has light brown coloured body and feathers. It also has a rare holy/light elemental attribute.

Yi Xiong continued: "As for another reason I gave this to you is that I hope you can meet my master, the one who taught me how to forge weapons, this necklace was given to me by him. I hope this necklace can lead you to him someday. When you meet him please give me the details of his location and condition. I was separated from my master 15 years ago and I really wish to know his whereabouts. I hope I still have the chance to meet him in this lifetime or else I will die with full of regret"

Yi Xiang replied: "Dad, can you tell me your master name, appearance and the last time you see him? When I am strong enough, I will prioritize going to the place that you saw him for the last time"

Yi Xiong replied: "My master race is a Chinese, he has an ordinary oriental face but with strong and muscular body, but that was 15 years ago, maybe he does not have that kind of appearance anymore. The last place we were together was at 'Loch Lake Village' located at the borderline between North Lotus region and our South Sea region. His name is Meng Hao"

Yi Xiang looked determined and replied: "Okay dad, I will not disappoint you, If I could not find Master Menghuo whereabouts in Loch Lake village, I will gather information from all around the world. I will not return home with empty hands regarding Master Meng Hao information!"

Yi Xiang then equipped his Griffin Cross necklace and he continued his chat with his father

In this last day before departure, Yi Xiong family has a memorable dinner and Yi Xiang enjoys his last day with his family

On his bed, he keeps imagine how is the world outside, he keeps thinking it over and over until he fell asleep

The very next day

The time has come

The dock in Iron Fishing Village looks very crowded

There is a mid-size trade galleon ship

Many workers are holding bags of commodity into the ship

Yi Xiang comes with Yi Xiong and Ye Ling into the dock and they head directly into the trade galleon ship

Upon the stairs into the ship, there are 3 middle-aged men standing and controlling their sailors and workers

They are Uncle Eh, Uncle Bi, and Uncle Sih

Uncle Eh noticed that Yi Xiang has come and said: "At last, you will leave your hometown today, and set on a new journey Yi Xiang. Yi Xiong, we will depart in 5 more minutes, are you sure you do not want to join to go to Night Moon city?"

Yi Xiong replied: "I know you will ask me to go there but, no, my wife will cry even more if we go there with him"

Ye Ling hugs Yi Xiang with love

Although she is sad that her son is going to Night Moon city but she knows it well that this day will surely come

She said to Yi Xiang: "Yi Xiang, be careful out there okay, do not provoke trouble, remember that your life is more important than anything else"

Yi Xiang nods and replies: "Yes mom, dad has made me various weapons to protect me, mom need to worry"

Uncle Bi then comes and says: "Eh, everything is ready and we are ready to sail anytime"

Uncle Eh then looks at Yi Xiang and says: "Yi Xiang, are you ready?"

Yi Xiang nods and he looks into his father and mother says: "Mom, dad, Wo cou le" as he walks into the ship

('Wo cou le' means 'I am going')

Ye Ling cries and Yi Xiong puts his hand into her shoulder and both of them look high into the decks of the ship

When the ship set sails, the ship gradually becomes further and further from the dock and Yi Xiang shout loudly into the direction of Yi Xiong dan Ye Ling:

"MOM! DAD! TAKE CARE! WHEN I COME BACK I WILL BRING YOU DAUGHTER IN LAW!! GOODBYE!!!"

Ye Ling cries even more and Yi Xiong who looks into the direction of the says to himself:

"Son, I know you can do it, I hope you can achieve your dream and

....

...

...

....my dream"

The ship is moving at a constant pace

The wave is a very pleasant companion

Seagulls cry below this clear sky

Today new adventure starts!
