Chapter 22 — Sculpting
The plaza of the Han City was a crowded area with many people frequently coming to sell their items and some also came to purchase some item.
Yu Long looked around the plaza after arriving and was amazed by the number of people.
He went toward a large fountain and quickly placed a thin blanket he had carried on his way, on the ground.
Yu Long sat cross-legged on the blanket and quickly took out all the small block of woods from his pendant while making sure no one was looking at him.
He was gonna show some of his sculpting skills inside the plaza to attract some attention and then sell the sculpting he made.
Yu Long held the ash-grey wood on his hands and took out his chisel.
Thud!
He quickly used his iron chisel to slice parts of the wood and carve some details on it.
Yu Long finished sculpting and a small ash-grey bunny was now on his hand instead of a wooden block.
The bunny looked cute and realistic due to it being made by Yu Long with fine precision.
Yu Long placed the bunny statue infront of him in the ground as he continued to sculpt.
The wooden statue infront of him continued to increased from the small bunny to bear, dog, and boar.
People soon got attracted by Yu Long's sculpting.
They didn't know what he was doing and just knew Yu Long was making many small statue with a good craftmanship.
The crowd surrounding Yu Long got bigger and was filled noise.
"So pretty!" A pretty woman who wore a revealing outfit, walked toward Yu Long.
The woman stopped infront of Yu Long and then lowered her upper body making her cleavage to be seen.
"Little brother, how much for this statue?" She asked seductively.
"Big sister, it's only 10 gold," Yu Long did not raised his head and just said while sculpting
The woman let out a sly smile as she said, "Little Brother, how about a discount?"
Yu Long firmly shook his head after hearing what she said.
"Then I'll take this little bunny.." The woman bit her red lips while wondering if she was not sexy enough to Yu Long.
Yu Long gave her the little bunny and received the 10 gold coins.
He hummed happily seeing the sparkling gold coin on his hands.
"I'll be a rich senior brother soon! Kukuku."
Many more people came to purchase his wooden figures.
...
Inside the large plaza, a handsome blonde-haired man was currently wandering around in a dillemma.
"What present should I give?" The man shuddered as he thought of his wife.
The man was called Luo You, a man who was currently thinking what to gift to his wife.
Lou You who was in a deep thought, noticed many people were gathered next to the fountain.
He became curious on what was going on near the fountain.
Lou You went toward the crowd and then he felt his breathing stopped as he looked infront of him.
A young boy holding a carving chisel was sitting on a thin blanket on the ground.
Everytime his carving chisel went up and down, the block of pine wood he was holding was forming into something.
Every move he made was precise and graceful to the eyes.
It seems the boy was carving a beautiful maiden.
Through his precise and skillful craftsmanship, the wooden maiden seems to gained it's own life.
Soon the boy finished the maiden statue and placed it infront of him on the ground next to a chubby boy.
The two statue was Xiao Yi and Fatty.
Luo You heart was amazed by Yu Long's amazing sculpting skills.
He didn't expect to see someone to be sculpting so good in his life.
The sculpting occupation was after all dead in this era.
Luo You then formed a excited smile as he hurriedly approached Yu Long.
"Sorry mister, but these two statue are not for sell," Yu Long quickly said seeing a handsome man approaching him.
He planned to gift these two wooden statue to Fatty and Xiao Yi.
Luo You did not stopped even after hearing what Yu Long said.
"Kid, can you sculpt a flower for my wife?" Lou Yue remembered the time his wife fell in love with the works of the moonlight sculptor.
His wife would definitely love it, if she was gifted with a sculptor, right?
Yu Long shook his head and said, "Sorry, I already used up all of my material."
"Don't worry about the materials! I will give you the material for it," Lou You gently rub the silver ring on his finger and took out a golden wood.
Yu Long was quite surprised seeing this man to have a spatial ring.
"This golden wood should do," Lou You handed it toward Yu Long.
Yu Long held the golden wood and inspected it.
"What kind of flower does your wife like the most?" Yu Long said as he prepared himself.
"A rose!" Luo You said after thinking for abit.
Yu Long nodded his head and envisioned a bunch of rose inside his head.
His eyes turned serious and concentrated. He extended his will toward his chisel and became one with it.
Puchh!
The carving chisel quickly move fluidly as the golden wood started to change in appearance.
Yu Long move while paying attention to every move of his muscle made and the chisel movement.
His [Regulus Controlling Art] was working to its full ability to help him with extreme precision over his movement.
Yu Long then thought of the word [Love] inside of him as he engraved that word or emotion into the golden wood.
The golden wood gradually lose it's shape and slowly transformed into many realistic beautiful roses with thorny vines.
The people and Luo You who was watching at the side was enchanted by Yu Long's elegant and beautiful craftmanship.
Their eyes can perceive the emotion called love carved into the golden flowers.
Huff!
Yu Long hold his breath as he did the final carving on the golden flower as his Spirit Star Power fluctuated and covered his chisel.
Thud!
The golden flower let out a brilliant light causing the crowd to close their eyes.
Yu Long felt surprised and at the same time happy seeing this phenomenon.
He had finally reached the Intermidiete stage of Sculpting!
The golden light dispersed. A lovely scent filled the air that came from the golden flower that became more beautiful and seems to gained it's own life!
The golden flower without any smell at first, suddenly released a lovely scent of a rose!
Yu Long realised this was the [Fusing Intent Into Sculpt!] realm!
Where one's intent can cause miracle to the sculpting!
Yu Long held the golden flower and handed it toward Lou You, "Take this Golden Flower Of Love for free.
He was grateful to Luo You who gave him the golden wood and made him reach the Intermidiete rank.
"No, no. I'll pay for it," Luo You quickly shook his hand in refusal.
"It's fine," Yu Long quickly handed the [Golden Flower Of Love] to Luo You.
Luo You felt bitter and shame as he held the golden flower with his hand.
He then got an idea.
"Then take this letter and only opened it once you graduated from your academy. You will not regret it," Luo You let out a mysterious smile as he said that and left the place.
Yu Long looked at the white letter with blood-red star stamp on the center in his hands.
He took it inside his pendant.
Yu Long then took his belonging and quickly left the plaza.
His head was already hurting due to mental strain.
Yu Long left while counting how much had he earned today.
"100 gold coins!" Yu Long exclaimed out.
