章 1026: Where Is Jing Wei?

With the playful banter over, Lin Mu finally asked the question that he had been wanting to ask for a while.

"Where is Old man Jing?" Lin Mu questioned.

Duan Ke looked over and replied, "he's… been in seclusion." 

"He's cultivating?" Lin Mu asked.

"Not exactly…" Duan Ke replied.

"Then what's he doing in seclusion?" Lin Mu asked, feeling even more confused.

"Well, he's… Forging. He has been for the past five years and I don't know what." Duan Ke answered.

Hearing this, Lin Mu found it strange, but Jing Luo seemed to have some insight.

"Oh! Grandfather went into one of his forging bouts. He used to do this in the past too. Whenever he reached a certain point of breakthrough in his skill, he would start forging and won't stop until he finally accomplished it." Jing Luo explained.

"Ah, really?" Lin Mu had not expected this.

Duan Ke too looked on in interest, having not known this.
