"Now that I'm not young anymore, it's time to find someone to take care of me in my old age and pass on my mantle of weapon crafting."
"As the saying goes, 'Don't let the good stuff go to outsiders,' so I'd like to find a suitable person within the sect to be my disciple!"
When Qing Lian finished speaking those last few words, everyone present was immediately impressed!
This guy actually wants to take on apprentices!
Let's not talk about that person's weapon-forging skills.

Immediately, one of the elders of Qifeng stood up.

After Qing Lian finished speaking, he withdrew his aura.
The elders felt a sense of relief wash over them.
