Golden Haired Man.

A month had gone by, The soldiers and young masters of the family had presented their desired weapons.

There were ladies who wanted rapiers, whips, or fans as their weapons.

The elite and common soldiers had gathered together to not make a stupid decision and take weapons that work best for their job, these were either long swords, tai chi sword to any type of sword that suits them while some had chosen spears, tiger claws and few took daggers for as their choice.

All the weapons were not the same, daggers came in different shapes, so did spears.

Ivor had spent a month making about five hundred peak-fifth grade weapons, this is an outstanding achievement to the society however to Ivor, it was a joy of honing his blacksmithing skills.

Ivor could have made sixth-grade weapons yet he did not, he did not want to give weapons that they cannot handle.

Between fifth and sixth grade physical weapons is a great deal, a fifth-grade weapon can be held by mortals while sixth-grade weapons weight is increased to be held by at least a sixth-grade cultivator.

This is due to the material used and sixth grade materials are extremely heavy, it is pointless to own a weapon that cannot be used.

Ivor also created techniques for the weapons: A spear user could choose between Mountain Stance, this technique is used to protect others and their self without moving, the stance that is used allows man to wield his spear with unpredictable movements, this would make the opponent feel that they cannot bypass the man neither can go through without dying.

The other technique is Butterfly strike: it is an offensive technique that will make the spear look like it is a butterfly flying however it will take off an enemy's head, arm, or anything to kill.

For dagger users had one choice: Silent Dagger, this technique is offensive which uses footwork that cannot be heard by others and it will allow the man to strike and it had few dagger techniques in it which will allow head-on fight with any other weapon.

There were many techniques for each weapon, they can be considered good but not great but he still provided skills that they can learn optionally.

...

Somewhere in a snowy mountain, there is a large fortress, the doors are at least 100 meters high while the walls are up to 500 meters, and there at the back is a tower that reached 800 meters in height.

An old man is walking towards it, it was the second ancestor of the Ai family. He is walking up a set of stairs with more than a thousand steps to reach the entrance.

It is snowing heavily and the old man kept enduring the pain. After a few hours, the old man reached the top and noticed two men sitting at the front of the gate. They are known as the twin gatekeepers.

"This Junior greets the Seniors!" The old man cupped his hands and bowed towards the two old men.

Both the men opened their eyes, one man had golden eyes while the other had green. These eyes showed who had more of who's blood from their ancestor.

The old golden-eyed man looked at the old man.

"Why have you traveled here?"

"This junior has traveled from the capital to request for help, the empire is turning their back on us." Said the old man while bowing.

The green-eyed old man replied instead.

"You can enter and meet the Golden-Green ancestor."

"Thank you, Seniors."

The massive door began to open, the old man walked in and the doors slammed shut.

There was nothing except darkness, then the old man saw two eyes one was gold while the other was emerald green.

"This junior greets the Golden-Green Ancestor."

"Tell me, how is the family."

"The empire is trying to destroy our family however our power is too weak, also the great-ancestor... Nellie's master, Ancestor's Ai was found." after talking the old man did not dare to even take a sigh.

"I see, I will talk to the others. You may return to the capital, Junior."

"Thank you for your time, Senior." The old man cupped his hands and left, he can't ask for much since these ancestors were not that bothered with otherworldly affairs.

Once the Junior left, the old man quickly moved and entered a room fast as possible.

He knelt down and put kept his head down.

"Why do you disturb me, young one?" asked a man, he had golden eyes, golden hair, a golden beard, and his fingernails were even gold.

"This junior disturbs the True Golden Ancestor with news that you have been looking for." said the Golden-Green ancestor.

"Elaborate."

"The Great Ancestor, Nellie's master, and Ai's Grandfather have been found by the capital family." The man was trying to hold his breath while talking.

"Good, you may leave."

"Thank you for your time." and the man left the room, then he started to sweat heavily with heavy breathing... he could not take the pressure.

The golden-haired man stood up and opened a door behind his seat.

"He entered a room with lanterns on the wall and in the center, there is an old woman, rippled skin, white hair and she looked like she was on the verge of death and on top of that she was chained to by golden chains with her head looking at the ground.

"Oh, my dear daughter... You may not tell me where the orb is or where the rest of your siblings have gone to hiding however I have news for you." Said the golden-haired man.

The woman looked at the man angrily with her pure green eyes.

"Oh don't you look at me like that you insolent child, I am your father!" shouted the golden-haired man.

"Anyways, Guess who has been found... Thought so, you won't even guess, how boring... Let me tell you, I have found your Great-Grandfather." The next second, the white-haired woman showed shock in her eyes.

"D...Do...Yo...You...Beli...Believe...that...he...will...belie...ve...you." said the woman in a weak old voice.

"So now you talk, anyways you really haven't talked since I exterminated your husband and son." A smile had appeared on the golden-haired man.

"BASTARD!" shouted the woman and fainted from exhastuion.

"How boring, well I'll get that orb one way or another, my dear wife." said the golden-haired man while looking at the roof of the room with a sinister smile.
