The Metallurgical City Artifact Refining Conference is held in the city every other year.
Since it was only an internal weapon-refining conference within the Metallurgical City's Artificer's Association, it was limited to Metallurgical City in terms of scale and excitement.
But if you can stand out in the weapon refining conference and be taken seriously, you will still have a bright future.
Every year, weapon refining masters who show their talent in the weapon refining conference are sent to Tianhua City headquarters to learn more advanced weapon refining skills and become higher-level weapon refining masters.
Su You and Jiang Nuer sat down early at an inn near the Artifact Refiner Association.
Money can make the world go round.
When the guy who had refused in every possible way and refused to say a word no matter what, saw the high-grade spiritual stone in his hand, he immediately patted his chest and said that he was the know-it-all in Metallurgical City. No matter big or small, there was no one he didn’t know about. of.
"oh?"
Seeing the confident expression on the waiter's face, Su You immediately asked: "Since you say you know everything, there is nothing in Metallurgical City that you don't know, then do you know Li Yongji?"
The words "Li Yongji" came from Su You's mouth to the waiter's ears. The waiter was so frightened that he sat weakly on the chair and almost didn't fall off.
"Guest, guest, are you sure you are asking not Li San or Li Si, but Li Yongji? And is he the most notorious Li Yongji in our Metallurgical City?" The waiter who was holding himself back from falling off the table asked Su You repeatedly. confirm.
After seeing Su You nodding in confirmation again and again.
The guy who finally came to his senses suddenly became serious and cautious.
He stood up and approached Su You, looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and then said to Su You and Jiang Nuer in an extremely low voice: "Guest, you don't know something. If you are asking me about someone else, Maybe I will think about it for a small matter, but as for Li Yongji's matter, no one who has lived in Metallurgical City for more than half a month does not know about it."
Su You, who didn't expect the waiter to say such a thing, became even more curious and asked the waiter to continue talking.
"You must not know what evil things that beast Li Yongji has done!"
It seemed that the name Li Yongji aroused some bad memories. The clerk's eyes suddenly became bloodshot, his face was gloomy and he said in a murderous tone: "Li Yongji has a person who works in the Metallurgical City Refiner Association. The vice-president’s father’s name is Li Sanjin. Not only is he a fourth-grade weapon refiner, he also controls nearly half of the mines and land near Metallurgical City. Even the land under our inn belongs to Li Sanjin. of."
"It is precisely because he has such a good father, and because Li Sanjin came to have a son in his old age, he just lets Li Yongji do whatever he wants and dotes on him to the extreme. No matter what Li Yongji wants to do, he will help his son to complete it."
"So that Li Yongji has been domineering since he was a child because he has a good father. In the fish and meat village, as long as he wants to do something, he will definitely do it, and he is not afraid of anything because he has a good father."
As he spoke, the waiter quietly pointed to the innkeeper who was at the counter.
The innkeeper is a middle-aged man, but he looks as haggard as an old man. There is not even a trace of life in his cloudy eyes. He looks like a walking corpse.
At this time, the waiter came closer and said in a deep voice: "You still don't know that Li Yongji's greed for beauty has reached a perverted level. He will take a fancy to anyone at a glance, even if he is a married woman. I will never let it go.”
"You should have seen the appearance of our shopkeeper, right? The proprietress was spotted by Li Yongji who came to the inn for dinner half a year ago, and was abducted by forceful means."
"Although the boss lady came back later, she was already covered in bruises and the traces of being tortured and beaten by Li Yongji could be seen everywhere."
"In addition, I have been insulted by Li Yongji for half a year, so the landlady hanged herself in the room a few days after she came back..."
"Is this Li Yongji so vicious?" After hearing what the waiter said, the anger on Jiang Nuer's face could no longer be concealed. She held back her anger and gritted her teeth and said, "This kind of person simply does not deserve to live in the world!"
"You feel the same way about this girl, right?"
The waiter laughed helplessly at himself: "Li Yongji has done similar things no less than a hundred times, so that no one in the metallurgical city knows about it, but what's the use of this? Li Yongji has someone in the Weapon Refiner Association. As the father of the vice-president, and Li Sanjin himself has some relationship with the Tianhua City headquarters, there have been people who wanted to resist, but without exception, they were all dealt with by Li Yongji."
"Buried in a mass grave outside the city."
"So now everyone avoids Li Yongji when they see him, and even those with wives and girls at home deliberately act ugly just to avoid being spotted by Li Yongji."
"As for revenge?" The man shook his head and said, "Unless you have someone who is the vice-president of the Weapon Refiner Association as your backer, the consequences of provoking Li Yongji will be the destruction of your family."
After saying this, the waiter got up and went to clear other tables and entertain other guests.
Su You's eyes followed the waiter's back, and he was surprised to find that just as the waiter said, most of the guests gathered in the inn had a deep sense of resentment and murderous intent hidden in their eyes, but most of them were still helpless. and loss.
There were only a few outside guests sitting at the table talking and laughing.
"brat···"
After listening to what the waiter said, and thinking of Li Yongji's evil face that he had seen with his own eyes in the courtyard, Jiang Nuer, who was already furious, whispered to Su You: "What are your plans next?" Don’t you want me to just go and kill that Li Yongji?”
"No."
Su You immediately rejected Jiang Nuer's proposal and explained: "Let's not mention that if you leave traces when you kill Li Yongji or are discovered by others, Li Sanjin, who dotes on his son in every possible way, will definitely give up everything. Pursuing us with all your strength, let alone just killing Li Yongji, would be too cheap for him and his family."
"What are your plans?" Jiang Nuer asked.
Hearing this, Su You smiled slightly and said: "Although Li Yongji does have a good father, and there are indeed few people in Metallurgical City who can cure him, don't forget that I am going to the Alchemist Association today to get the representative. The days of fourth-grade alchemist clothing and tokens.”
"Coupled with the fact that Master Gu is the manager of the Metallurgical City Alchemist Association, I think our backer should be higher and stronger than Li Yongji's, right?"
"That's right!" Jiang Nuer clapped her hands and said happily: "And the headquarters of the Alchemist Association must already know that there is a genius like you. The Alchemist Association will never allow someone to be promoted at a young age. If a fourth-grade alchemist who also possesses a fifth-grade strange fire is harmed, he will definitely put pressure on the Alchemist Association after learning about the conflict between you and Li Yongji."
Su You then said: "Once the Weapon Refiner Association puts pressure on Li Sanjin, what kind of disturbance can Li Yongji cause when he can't get help from his backers? But we can take this opportunity to make Li Yongji do what he once did." All the things that happened in the past are exposed, not only to give the people of Metallurgical City a clear sky, but also to eliminate a scourge for the Weapon Refiner Association. I believe that the Weapon Refiner Association will not refuse such an excellent opportunity to clean up the internal affairs. of."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to the Alchemist Association as soon as possible."
The words fell.
Su You and Jiang Nuer left the inn and rushed to the Alchemist Association.
As soon as they entered the lobby of the association, they saw Master Gu, who seemed to have been waiting for them to come, walking over with a piece of clothing in his arms with excitement on his face.
After greeting Su You and Jiang Nuer to his room, Master Gu handed Su You a brand new and exquisite black robe with four flame marks embroidered on the chest, and at the same time handed a golden engraved alchemy furnace to Su You. The token was hung on Su You's waist.
Then he smiled happily and said: "This is the alchemist costume and token sent to you from the headquarters. From today on, you are certified by the association and are the youngest fourth-grade alchemist in history. Congratulations."
"Thank you Master Gu." After putting on his clothes, Su You immediately said to Master Gu, "But I would like to ask Master Gu for a favor."
"oh?"
Master Gu looked surprised when he heard Su Youyou's words, and then asked: "Did you encounter any difficulties during the alchemy process? You can tell me, and I will help you solve it as long as I know it."
Su You shook his head: "It has nothing to do with alchemy, but something to do with a person."
"who?"
"Metallurgical City Li family, Li Yongji."
Except for the three people in the room, no one else knew what Su You and Master Gu talked about.
All we know is that after Su You and Jiang Nuer left the Alchemist Association with satisfaction, an urgent and secret letter was quickly sent from the Alchemist Association to the Tianhua City headquarters.
