I took a few steps to catch up with Chu Yan and the others.
They saw the magic weapon in my hand.
Chu Zhou and Zeng Wen once again looked at me with shock, envy, and jealousy.
"The magic weapon in Qingwan's hand is the best, right? The rotating ball just now is also the best." Chu Yan pursed his lips and said.
"That one and this one were both forged by Master Yuxian's great-uncle." I showed off to them with the Emei thorn.
Several people's expressions were more complicated.
"Your master and uncle are so kind to you. I see that you basically use high-level magic weapons." Chu Yan said to me with a sour expression.
I think back on it, I have several magic weapons that were forged by my great uncle, Cosine.
It is indeed good.
I nodded, "Master said that my great-uncle practiced it specially for me."
Although I know it was Master who shamelessly asked for it.
He likes to show off me as his apprentice all day long.
Raising me is like raising a daughter.
They threw anything good at me, for fear that I would be bullied when I went out.
Lize covered his mouth and coughed lightly, seeming to be in a happy mood.
We returned to Motianling.
Because monsters are rampant in the Motian Ridge area recently, Master wants us to practice more.
We were not in a hurry and walked slowly along the road back.
I excitedly shared with Chu Yan how I had an alchemy room separated from the kitchen.
He also used alchemy methods to refine Wuling tea and jade dew.
Chu Yan was surprised, "Then you are so powerful. I never thought that this method of making elixirs and brewing food would work."
"My master said the same thing about me." I smiled proudly.
Lize walked beside me with a slight smile on his face.
I haven't seen this person in the sect for decades. Now that I have just met him, he is so kind to me. I will go back and ask the master.
I squinted at him.
He turned around and whispered to Chu Yan.
Before he finished speaking, he pulled me back by the collar.
I slapped his hand away, "Why are you holding me back?"
The face that was full of smiles just now looked a little cold now. He pursed his lips and said, "Just talk, why are you sticking it on his face?"
"I didn't touch his face..." I looked at him innocently.
"That won't work either." He still stopped.
Chu Yan couldn't stand it any longer and stared at him, "You are Qingwan's nephew, and you have to control her friends? Her master hasn't said anything yet."
Lize snorted softly, "Her master told me not to let her get so close to the opposite sex."
Who just held my waist and carried me over the cliff?
Why are you pretending to be a gentleman now?
I cheered, "You're still the same..."
Lize tilted his head slightly and said with an unnatural expression, "I'm different. I was ordered to protect you."
Well, he has a point.
My senior brothers all protected me as if they were a child, and over time, I got used to it.
"I just hope that I can forge a cauldron that can change its size as I wish, and that I can also refine the elixir myself, so that I can save my worries."
I did not continue to argue with Lize, and instead talked to Chu Yan about the cauldron I had always imagined.
Chu Yan nodded, "It should be possible, but you have to earn spiritual stones. This magic weapon doesn't sound cheap."
"I know, so I'm already saving it." I took out the bag containing the spiritual stones and shook them.
"Although there is still a long way to go, I will try my best to accept the mission."
I clenched my fists and secretly set my goal.
"The thousand-year cold iron needed for the tripod is an extremely hard-to-find raw material. Generally, no one is willing to sell it, so even if you have spiritual stones, there is nowhere to buy them." Lize suddenly interrupted my fantasy.
"..."
I know it's rare, don't you think about it?
Lize added, "I can help you find it."
It sounds nice, but there must be some conditions.
"What conditions?" I nervously covered the spirit stone bag.
He looked at my little movements and smiled slightly.
"I don't want your spirit stone."
so good?
I looked at him suspiciously, and Chu Yan also looked at him with distrustful eyes.
Seeing the two of us looking at each other like this, Lize coughed slightly in embarrassment.
"There are no conditions. You are not my uncle. I should help you."
What he said was serious, but not only Chu Yan didn't believe it, but I didn't believe it either.
I just met him not long ago, so we're not really acquaintances, we're just a master-uncle-nephew relationship.
I have no idea why he helped me find the Millennium Cold Iron.
Since I didn't want to talk to him, and he seemed to notice it.
After returning to the sect, I officially started making Wuling tea and declined all invitations.
Although the alchemy room behind the kitchen is not that convenient.
But something is better than nothing.
The processing technology of Wuling tea is very complicated.
I poured fresh green leaves into a few frames.
Fully loaded with four large frames.
First, we need to select the impurities inside.
This is a job that requires patience.
Because I didn't want to rely on others, I spent a whole day picking out the impurities.
Then separate the core of one leaf from the two leaves.
A leaf core is worth more, I am going to exchange it for spiritual stones.
I put a core of green leaves in a frame and brought them to Xiaoxiquan. The hot spring mouth of Xiaoxiquan can be used to warm and nourish them.
After a day of warming in the hot springs, Yiye Core will absorb more spiritual energy.
Although the two-leaf one is drunk by oneself and given as a gift, steps must be taken.
When we arrived at Xiaoxiquan, there was silence all around.
I called out twice tentatively, but there was no reply from Lize.
I exhaled, "Probably not here!"
I shouldn't be so unlucky.
"If you keep hiding today, you won't blame me. You'll shout when I come."
While muttering, I straightened the exit of the hot spring.
Use some large rocks to raise the bottom to prevent water from getting on the leaves.
After doing it, I also had a thin layer of sweat on my body.
"Every time I make this Wuling tea, it makes me feel tired and happy."
I thought, since I need to warm up Wuling tea anyway, I would be fine, so I wanted to soak in a hot spring.
The fox hissed and ran out of my spiritual pet bag.
"I'll go out for a while. After you wash up, I'll come back." The fox's depressed voice came from a distance.
"Haha, you are really a shy fox."
I set up a barrier to make sure no one would come in and disturb me.
Apart from my outer garments, I only kept the obscene clothes I wore underneath.
The water temperature in the hot spring is very high.
I walked in slowly and squatted down slowly.
Then, a clear cough came from the mist.
In this situation, I don't dare to move. I can still be somewhat sheltered in the water.
"Lize?"
Lize's voice was cold and hoarse, "I just fell asleep. When did you come?"
I wanted to cry but had no tears, so I shrank my body further underwater, leaving only half of my head exposed.
He whispered back, "Just...just got into the water..."
What should we do now?
I couldn't find the right words to talk to him, but he was silent.
The mist in the hot spring got even worse, making it so hazy that I couldn't see my fingers.
I don't know whether it was because of the warmth of the water or because I was embarrassed, but my whole body was glowing with a crimson light.
"Then, I'll go up first, and you can continue soaking." After a while, Lize's embarrassed voice sounded.
"Okay...walk slowly."
"Well, don't fall asleep."
I heard the sound of rushing water.
In panic, I closed my eyes.
Then the water surface rippled with waves.
Then the sound of feet on stone.
Go away slowly.
Why not just fly away?
Where did he go?
Still not leaving?
"Lize?" I called softly twice.
His muffled voice came, "Outside."
"Why...why haven't you left yet?"
"I'll help you look out."
"What, no need, I set up a barrier." I pretended to be calm.
"Your barrier is not very good at blocking people." He didn't mean to mock me at all.
But I am particularly sensitive now, so I felt that his tone was sarcastic.
