Liansong said, "My problem is that although I often forge magical artifacts, I'm generally used to crafting them with magic power. But to handcraft a short blade with such exquisite precision—I've thought long and hard, and the only person capable of handcrafting such a monstrous thing is you, Emperor."
Donghua thought to himself: What a piece of work. He comes to ask for a favor, yet manages to insult him as a monster in a roundabout way.
Donghua shot a lethal glare at Liansong, but Liansong wasn't the least bit afraid. The two of them were close friends despite the generation gap, and this little bit of teasing was well within bounds.
