"Semi-finished product?" Sima Yunxin looked in disbelief and shook his head repeatedly, "No, I won't be mistaken. If I can't see this, then how can I deserve to step down from the Refining Peak!"
"In my opinion, this weapon should be a Kit Kat design, so it's normal that you can't see it."
Lin Ming said in a straight tone, as if he was telling the facts.
Sima Yunxin retorted: "You don't know how to cast or refine weapons. This is just you..."
Xiao Ye interrupted loudly: "If Mr. Lin Ming doesn't know how to refine weapons and forge, then I am a complete layman."
After a slight pause, he spoke loudly: "On the ferry coming to Tianyuan Continent, the Zhong family ferry encountered a crisis. At that time, the entire core power formation and many surrounding structures began to loosen. If Master Lin Ming had not come to help, only I’m afraid that a whole boatload of people will be buried in the belly of the big fish.”
An Ruo took half a step forward, preparing to add fuel to the fire.
At this time, the little guy jumped on An Ruo's head and gently lowered his paws.
"Xiao An'an, you're not good. Brother Ming said you can't reveal his identity, but you still don't follow the rules."
An Ruoru was struck by lightning and froze in place, swallowing back the words that he had originally not expected to reach his throat.
She originally wanted to say: "If none of the commanders of my Xuanzong Xuanzhu lineage know how to forge, then how many people in the world can?"
but!
What do the little guy's innocent words mean?
Could it be a hint from Lin Ming's junior master's great-uncle?
An Ruo Gulu swallowed her saliva and glanced at Lin Ming's face carefully for a long time.
At this time, Lin Ming was talking to Sima Yunxin and did not look at An Ruo at all.
However, when she observed Lin Ming from the side, Lin Ming's gentle and calm eyes suddenly turned into calm and silent, but also revealed a little alienation.
An Ruo was a little scared for a moment, lowered her head quickly and took two steps back.
She didn't even dare to seek Lin Ming's forgiveness directly.
Next to him, Peng Lusheng was thoughtful. He had been panicking even when An Ruo revealed Lin Ming's identity just now.
Now when I saw the little guy's behavior towards An Ruo, he thought like An Ruo, and decided that this was the instruction of the little master's uncle, and asked the spiritual beast next to him to beat An Ruo.
Oh my god! ! !
Before he returned to the mountain gate, he unknowingly offended his uncle. This was not a good thing.
Peng Lusheng looked at An Ruo and the little guy.
He hurriedly walked in and said in a low voice:
"I would also like to ask Brother Lu to help me with a few words of kindness so that my uncle will not be surprised. Senior Sister An Ruo and I both see the rare opportunity in front of us. We can help our uncle gain prestige in advance and gain more weight in the hearts of everyone, so that he can be more powerful." Can suppress the die-hards in Xuanzhu Pavilion."
Seeing this, An Ruo seemed to have a lightbulb of inspiration popping up in her mind, and then nodded hurriedly.
"Yes, yes, please help Brother Lu."
She was too impatient for a while, so she and Peng Lusheng accidentally called the little guy Brother Lu.
The little guy was stunned for two or three seconds before he realized that An Ruo and Peng Lusheng were talking to him.
The little guy's two paws moved up and down, stacked on each other, and touched lightly.
Boom! ! !
Yes, my name is Lu Xueye.
Brother Lu = Lu Xueye, so they are calling me...
But why?
The little guy didn't understand, his big eyes sparkled, he scratched his head and said, "What are you talking about?"
Done!
Brother Lu is pretending to be stupid and unwilling to help.
It seems that I have offended my uncle.
There was a hint of bitterness on Peng Lusheng's face, and An Ruo was not far behind either.
The two of them frightened themselves with their random thoughts.
The little guy was confused and simply didn't bother to answer.
call out!
Its four legs were slightly bent, and it gathered strength to jump up, leaping into a white shadow and landing on Lin Ming's shoulder.
In the same place, An Ruo and Peng Lusheng looked at me and I looked at you, stupidly in place.
On the other side, Sima Yunxin and Xiao also took the broken long knife from Lin Ming's hand.
Sima Yunxin wanted to get closer and study it carefully, but was blocked by Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye applauded repeatedly and said: "That's how it should be, that's exactly what it should be. The works I saw can't be broken by someone's touch. This should really be a semi-finished product."
Sima Yunxin shook his head, "No, I don't believe it."
At this time, Lin Ming said: "You are stubborn and stubborn. If you still don't believe it, let everyone around you take a look and let everyone comment on whether this thing is a half-finished product."
When the people around heard this, they gathered around one after another.
They are also very curious, no, it should be said that they are extremely curious.
Such a big turmoil, if it is really Sima Yunxin who cannot tell whether the artifacts in Yunxiao Pavilion are semi-finished products...
It's conceivable, it's so absurd, but it's so interesting.
This can almost be said to be that he smashed his own sign.
Among the people around were spies from the powerful Forging Pavilion and Weapon Refining Pavilion in Master Town. They were waiting here for a big news.
Well, the news that is about to appear is bigger than imagined.
It is unimaginable how the real secrets of the master town - the grand masters - will view this incident.
A few minutes passed, and Sima Yunxin still didn't want to admit that he had made a mistake.
He quibbled: "If this is really an unfinished semi-finished product, then why don't the people in Yunxiao Pavilion know about it?"
Pointing at the two people lying nearby, still unconscious, Sima Yunxin seemed to be grasping at the last straw for a drowning person.
Xiao Ye shook his head and said: "Actually, this is not important. Anyway, you have caused such a thing. What is really important next is how we settle our grudges."
Sima Yunxin stamped his feet heavily, spreading his momentum, and the light and shadow of the earth-yellow giant cauldron hanging above his body flowed out a stream of earth-yellow aura.
He used one of these functions to teleport to the unconscious two people.
Afterwards, Sima Yunxin woke them up.
Among the two, one is an old man whose cultivation level is not advanced, but the old man's casting method has reached the master level.
Because of previous physical and mental trauma, it was difficult for the old man to speak.
The other person is Master Qiao's chief disciple, named Qiao Da. He is an orphan. Master Qiao picked him up, provided him with food and drink, and taught him skills. In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that his relationship with Master Qiao is that of father and son.
In the past month, Jodha has been able to reach the master level of forging with only one weapon being cultivated.
Generally speaking, people like him would be called half-step masters.
He must wait until the weapons he forged are actually produced, and then he can reach the upper level of the earth level before he can be designated as a master.
Qiao Da's cultivation level is pretty good and he has the Taihe Realm, so he recovers relatively quickly.
When he heard that Master Qiao's creation was only a semi-finished product, he couldn't believe it for a while.
but!
After thinking for a moment, Qiao Da suddenly realized:
"Master once asked me a difficult question before he left Yunxiao Pavilion and went to Yunyou. He said he wanted me to observe and practice this sword that has not yet been named. When he came back, he wanted to test me. He said it was because I had already reached half-step. Master, that’s why you won’t tell me what the topic is. I need to realize it myself, from this nameless sword.”
"However, as far as I know, Master left precisely to find an extremely rare material."
This sentence is tantamount to admitting Lin Ming's inference - the Nameless Sword is indeed a semi-finished product.
Sima Yunxin took a few steps back, "You... you suddenly said this now, it's just nonsense."
"Whether it is nonsense or not, you will know soon." Qiao Da pressed his chest and spat out blood. "Master has found the materials he wanted. He will definitely return in less than half a month."
After the words fell, Qiao Da realized the crucial possibility in his heart, but he kept silent and even buried his head, unwilling to attract anyone's attention.
Because, he suddenly understood that this handful of fragments, plus the special materials that the master had recovered... might mean that the master would step into the realm of a grandmaster from now on!
The master of casting, the master of refining, that kind of energy is completely unmatched by the masters.
In the huge Cangxuan world, there are not many masters, but they are definitely not few.
However, people at the master level are rare and rarely seen.
Even Master Town, known as one of the three holy places of the Way of Forging, only has three masters living in seclusion behind the scenes.
Qiao Da clenched his hands tightly, trying to suppress his inner emotions.
He clearly remembered the humiliation Yunxiao Pavilion suffered today, but he knew even more clearly that one day in the future, Sima Yunxin would definitely kneel in front of his master and repent.
Even with the support of Refining Peak, there is no exception.
the reason is simple--
The Grandmaster cannot be insulted! ! !
Someone in the crowd shouted: "You will know the difference at a glance. Now let's proceed to the next duel. Master Xiao Ye and the weapon-refining madman Sima Yunxin. We have all watched for so long and are waiting for your duel."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone responded one after another.
"Stop the ink stain and quickly set a date for the duel, or you can just do it today."
"Yes, Sima Yunxin is so crazy that he wants to take off someone's plaque. This matter must not be done casually!"
"Master Xiao Ye had a bad temper back then. Now that he sees his junior brother's reputation being deceived, there is no way he can get away with it."
"Yes, we should quickly decide on the duel. When will it start? How many days will it last? What are the stakes?"
Xiao Ye shook his linen clothes, raised his hand and pressed down to signal everyone to be quiet.
Then, he pointed at Sima Yunxin and said, "I'll let you choose the right time."
Sima Yunxin felt a little better when he saw the excitement among the crowd. It would be really uncomfortable if the people around him kept pinpointing his mistakes.
He didn't need to look to know that a certain grandmaster in the master town had spoken, so there were people around him who deliberately changed the subject.
This was a favor given intentionally, because the other party definitely wanted something from the Refining Peak of the Weapon Refining Sect.
Sima Yunxin let out a long breath and took the opportunity to say:
"Then set a date for the fight. In three days, after I recover from my injuries, I will fight with both families at the same time."
After a pause, he said loudly: "Three days later, at noon, I, Sima Yunxin, invite the representatives of Xuanzhu Pavilion and Master Xiao Ye of Yunxiao Pavilion for a casting competition."
Xiao Ye looked ugly, "Sima Yunxin, you are indeed crazy."
After speaking, he suddenly threw up his sleeves and turned around to leave.
The words Xiao Ye left were floating in the air: "You have no idea what you are going to face. In three days, I will wait for you to look defeated."
Sima Yunxin didn't take it seriously and didn't take a serious look at Xiao Ye at all.
At this moment, Xiao Ye walked up to Lin Ming, apologized, and then lowered his voice: "In three days, I will take action with all my strength, and then I will ask Master Lin Ming to help suppress the battle."
"Why me?" Lin Ming tilted his neck slightly.
"Master, don't pretend to be confused. Although I have left the Zhong family temporarily, I am still one of the guests of the Zhong family. I already know some information that outsiders cannot know."
After a slight pause, Xiao Ye sent a voice message: "Based on many clues, it can be concluded that Mr. Lin Ming is the commander of the Xuanzhu lineage of Xuanzong. You have demonstrated the art of casting in front of me, little old man, so you cannot fool me."
Lin Ming raised the corner of his mouth slightly and replied: "I don't want to fool you, but the Xuanzhu lineage and Xuanzhu Pavilion may not be related."
Xiao Ye raised his eyebrows with a look of great surprise on his face, "If they really make things difficult for you, then they are simply out of their mind."
"Who knows, there are many people in this world with bad minds."
Lin Ming replied with a deep meaning.
Then, he took the little guy and walked out of the crowd.
Most of the people in Master Town were obsessed with the art of casting and would not care about unexpected objects. However, Lin Ming's appearance was too outstanding.
Some women around him have long admired him, and one or two of them want to strike up a conversation.
However, An Ruo and Peng Lusheng's words are still in my ears.
Xuanzong's junior master uncle, this level of seniority is destined not to be approached by ordinary cultivators.
They watched Lin Ming go away longingly.
In front of Yunxiao Pavilion, Sima Yunxin took several deep breaths, but did not dare to stare at Lin Ming's back.
He was really a little afraid of this person who didn't play by the rules.
He is really the type who must retaliate against his enemies, and the other party's identity is very bluffing, and the Weapon Refining Sect will not be willing to take action against Xuanzong easily.
However, Sima Yunxin always felt that something was wrong. He remembered that all the experts in Xuanzong had names, but there was no such person as Lin Ming.
Sima Yunxin was thinking and said to himself: "It can't be that it comes from other realms, right?"
As soon as he said this, he frightened himself.
If it was really someone from outside, it was probably from Xuanzong's own sect.
That is a real giant with branches in 360 worlds, and it is also the reason why most forces in the Cangxuan world are never willing to easily provoke Xuanzong's people.
At the same time, Qiao Da helped the old man who was not in good condition, took the fragments of the artifacts refined by his master, and walked into Yunxiao Pavilion.
He relayed everything that happened today to his master, Qiao Jingxin.
Thousands of miles away, Qiao Jingxin was on his way happily. When he suddenly received news from his apprentice, he felt very happy.
After a moment, his expression darkened.
After a moment of silence, the momentum belonging to the saint realm exploded.
In the mountains and forests, all the birds and beasts were frightened and fled in all directions.
Qiao Jingxin replied to the jade slip: "I will definitely be there in three days!"
After saying this, the message jade simplified into light spots and spread out in all directions.
Qiao Jingxin closed her eyes and exhaled slightly: "Brother, I didn't expect that when we meet again after so many years, you would actually take the initiative to help me."
Hooray!
A small boat took off in the forest, and Qiao Jingxin stood on the bow, her eyes seeming to see the scene in Master Town from thousands of miles away.
The next second, the boat turned into a stream of light and sped towards the horizon.
