My Wife is A Sword God

Guided by the people from the Divine Workshop, Qin Feng  entered the refining room that the old man had mentioned.

At first glance, everything was there.

He nodded with satisfaction, and then took out the things he had prepared in advance.

First, a thin armor as a precaution, followed by an iron outer jacket for added security. A helmet was of course indispensable, and shields on both sides made him even safer.

Lan Ningshuang showed a surprised expression, “Young master, with this appearance, what exactly are you planning to do?”

Qin Feng  had already protected himself thoroughly, but there was a problem. He couldn’t move freely to refine the gunpowder with this costume!

Qin Feng  looked at his clumsy hands, sighed helplessly, and took off all the equipment, leaving only a thin armor.

Soon, someone brought the necessary materials and placed them on the stone table in the refining room.

The main ingredients of gunpowder are sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal, and the proportions are very specific.

Qin Feng  took a deep breath, mobilizing the Righteous Qi within him to protect himself. If the reaction of the gunpowder got out of control, he could use the Heavenly Mirror to counter its partial power.

Next to him, Lan Ningshuang asked, “Young master, how can I help you?”

After thinking for a moment, Qin Feng  said, “Stand behind me. If I call for help, pull me away immediately.”

Lan Ningshuang nodded solemnly with her big questioning eyes.

And Qin Feng  seriously immersed himself in the gunpowder refining experiment.

Three days later, in the main hall of the Qin residence, Second Mother asked curiously, “Why haven’t we seen Feng’er lately?

Qin Jian’an took a sip of porridge and replied, “Maybe he’s busy with something. The kid is an adult, knows how to handle things, and this is the Imperial City. What danger could there be? Don’t worry.”

“How can you say that? Just because it’s Imperial City doesn’t mean it’s absolutely safe. What if Feng’er offends someone he shouldn’t? You, husband, don’t care about anything, that’s why the Qin family is gradually declining.” Second Mother reproached.

“It has nothing to do with me, Madam, if the Qin family is declining.” The old man could hardly defend himself.

Off to the side, Second Young Master was holding a steamed bun and chewing loudly, seemingly enjoying the spectacle.

At that moment, Liu Jianli, who was eating with them, whispered, “Mother, Ningshuang said that Master is refining something in the Divine Workshop and can’t leave.”

“I see. That explains why I sometimes see Ningshuang come back in a hurry, bring some new clothes, and then leave in a hurry.”

“But what exactly are they doing? Why is her face so dark when she comes back?” 

Liu Jianli shook her head slightly, “I’m not sure.”

Inside the refining room, Qin Feng’s eyes were bloodshot. It turned out that knowing the formula for gunpowder was one thing, but refining it was another.

He had not closed his eyes for three days and nights, constantly adjusting the proportions of various materials.

But the effort always paid off. From only producing thick smoke at first, he could now see sporadic sparks of explosion.

Moreover, the power of these sparks was steadily increasing. He believed that after a few more experiments, he could refine gunpowder with a certain power!

“Brother-in-law, take a break and have some tea.” Lan Ningshuang said worriedly.

“Alright.” Qin Feng took the tea and drank it in one gulp, ignoring his face covered in black ash.

At that moment, Lan Ningshuang carefully wiped his face with a wet towel and said with concern, “Brother-in-law, what exactly are you trying to refine that you have to work tirelessly like this? I have heard people from the Divine Workshop say that refining new things requires years of research and cannot be rushed.”

Qin Feng’s expression froze at her words.

Originally, it shouldn’t have taken this long, considering that there were predecessors with experience. It’s just that he regretted choosing the liberal arts at the beginning because he lacked theoretical knowledge..

‘The physics teacher was right. If you’re good at science, you can go anywhere in the world without fear. It’s just that I was too young at the time. Who said that guys in the humanities could get girls?’ Qin Feng sighed in his heart.

After shaking his head, he explained, “The number of human races is not large, unfortunately, the great families of the Great Qian cherish their own resources.” 

“Therefore, the number of people who truly enter the orthodox cultivation path is rare. Even though the three major sword families have established the Sword Dao Alliance, it’s not something that can be achieved overnight to increase the number of human martial artists.” 

“The thing I want to refine is called gunpowder. If I succeed, even ordinary people will be able to fight against demons and ghosts. When that time comes, humans may be able to change the current situation.”

So everything the brother-in-law did was for the sake of humanity.

“I understand. I’ll stay by your side until you successfully refine the gunpowder,” Lan Ningshuang said.

“Good.”

‘Sulfur, coarse charcoal powder, bamboo root, tung oil. Crush and grind them into powder, then melt and mix with oil. Saltpeter, sulfur, carbon substance, in a ratio of two to one to one.’ Qin Feng muttered as he continuously mixed these ingredients.

He could feel that he was about to succeed.

When the last material was added and ignited, the reaction was more intense than before!

In an instant, a trance appeared in his mind, a scene flashed through, and the scene in this vision was the alchemy room.

The flames surged, and the powerful explosive force completely engulfed him!

Intense heat rushed in, and Lan Ningshuang sensed something unusual. It was a warrior’s keen sense of danger.

Qin Feng snapped out of his reverie and realized that the scene he had just witnessed was probably the ability of a Literature Saint of the Sixth Stage Divination Realm to seek fortune and avoid misfortune!

Without much time to think, he hastily shouted, “Help!”

Upon hearing the voice, Lan Ningshuang immediately grabbed the back of his clothes and jumped backward.

At the same time, a powerful burst of flames erupted, followed by the roaring sound of the explosion.

The power of the explosion far exceeded Qin Feng’s expectations. Not daring to be careless, he mobilized his Literature Qi and erected the Heavenly Mirror in front of the two.

The force of the explosion, accompanied by the searing flames, made Qin Feng feel like a small boat in turbulent waves, ready to be swallowed up at any moment.

Had it not been for the soft body shielding him from behind, he was afraid that the impact would have smashed him directly into the wall!

Boom!

Inside the Divine Workshop, there was a rumbling that shook the earth.

“What’s that sound?”

“Did someone blow up the furnace again?”

Everyone in the courtyard stopped what they were doing and looked at the source of the explosion.

“Wait, that refining room seems to be where Master Qin is!”

As soon as this was said, everyone turned pale with shock and hurriedly ran towards the attic.

The hard floor of the first floor was already covered with dense cracks, and the sturdiest door of the Refining Room was shattered like a mirror.

Thick black smoke billowed out, making it impossible to see the situation inside.

Gong Liang shouted anxiously, “Why are you all standing there? Hurry and go in to save Master Qin!”

A cracking sound echoed, and Grandmaster Yuan Zhai appeared in the hall at an unknown time, looking at the forging room with a furrowed brow.

Without saying a word, he stomped his right foot, and the dilapidated door of the Forging Room collapsed in an instant.

Just as Master Yuan was about to enter, a coughing sound was heard. Then, two dark figures stepped out, their true faces completely unrecognizable.

“Master Qin, Miss Lan?” Gong Liang inquired cautiously.

Qin Feng, who had just escaped from a life-threatening situation, didn’t answer. He greedily breathed in the fresh air, then excitedly clenched his fists and said, “It worked, it finally worked!”
