Chapter 254 The Weapon Refining Master
"I wonder what the relationship between Fairy Nangong and Master Nangong is?" Lu Yu asked while eating.
"He is my father." Nangong Qing said it directly without hesitation.
"That's it!" Lu Yu was immediately relieved after hearing this.
No wonder there is some similarity between their eyebrows, no wonder the other person appears here.
"You look very young, you should be Elder Bai's student, right?" Nangong Qing also started to ask.
After spending a long time together, the two of them had become familiar with each other, and she was no longer polite and began to inquire about Lu Yu's information.
"Ah, yes." Lu Yu was stunned when he heard this and quickly agreed.
"No wonder." Nangong Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
She felt that the other party did not look like a master, after all, he was too young.
After knowing that the other party was not a master, the two of them finally spoke more casually, and this was what Lu Yu was happy to see.
But the next scene made Lu Yu dumbfounded.
It was as if Nangong Qing's chat box had been opened, and the fire of gossip was burning.
"By the way, how are your weapon refining skills?"
"It should be good..." Lu Yu said.
"should?"
Seeing that Lu Yu was so unsure, Nangong Qing became even more relaxed.
This guy looked different at first glance. He was completely unlike the other weapon refiners she met, and she couldn't help but reveal his true nature.
"How old are you?"
"..."
"Where do you usually refine weapons?"
…
Next, Nangong Qing showed Xuantianwei's true nature and asked a lot of questions at once, each of which was private and secret, which made Lu Yu feel a little autistic.
So, he finally came up with his trump card.
"Fairy Nangong, actually, my trip is not in vain." Lu Yu suddenly said with a smile on his face.
"Oh? What do you say?" Nangong Qing was stunned when she heard this.
"Because I met you!" Lu Yu joked.
"Uh... Master Mo was joking." Nangong Qing felt a little unnatural when she heard this.
She asked a lot of questions just out of curiosity. Could it be that the other party misunderstood her?
Master Mo looks so polite, why is he so frivolous?
"Don't get me wrong, Fairy Nangong. I just fell in love with you at first sight, so I feel that this trip is worthwhile." Lu Yu explained with a smile.
However, Nangong Qing suddenly blushed when she heard this sentence. She felt like old friends at first sight, didn't she still mean that?
Next step, is it time to launch an offensive?
really.
"I wonder if Fairy Nangong is getting married?" Lu Yu asked again.
"Sorry, let's go back..."
…………………………………………
After saying goodbye to Nangong Qing, Lu Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If the other party continues to gossip like this, his background will be dug out, and his identity will be full of loopholes.
Back in the small courtyard, Lu Yu began to concentrate on studying the inheritance of memories. Although he no longer had to worry about the weapon refining, he still had to help Bai Laodao find the reasons for the previous two failures.
A night of silence.
The next day, the maid delivered sumptuous pastries and spiritual fruits early.
These pastry spiritual fruits are rare treasures. Eating one can be worth several months of hard work.
Lu Yu was not polite. After a good meal, he and Bai Laodao gathered together and went to the main hall of the Divine Sword Sect.
According to the arrangement, today is the day when a group of weapon refining masters go to the weapon refining peak to discuss the refining of artifacts.
Just when he was approaching the main hall of Shen Dao Sect, he ran into an old acquaintance of Bai Laodao.
"Hey, old man Bai, do you still have the nerve to come here?" I saw an old man in gray robes in front of me saying with a sneer on his face.
When Bai Laodao saw the person coming, his mouth twitched slightly and he was about to take a detour.
The gray-robed old man in front of him is named Chang Houhui, and he is also one of the top weapon-refining masters.
Originally, Chang Houhui was supposed to lead the refining of this divine weapon of the Divine Sword Sect, but in the end, due to his appearance, his command position was taken away.
Now that the other party sees the failure of refining the weapon, of course he is gloating.
However, seeing Bai Zhantang avoiding him, Chang Houhui did not let go.
The two have similar reputations. How could he easily give up such an opportunity to suppress the other?
He stopped Bai Zhantang and continued to sarcastically say:
"Old Man Bai, you previously boasted that you participated in the refining of divine weapons, which resulted in the failure of the Divine Sword Sect's refining of artifacts. Could it be that you made up that experience to put yourself in a better position?"
As soon as Chang Houhui said these words, the weapon refining masters who had arrived around him all looked over with strange eyes.
They had all heard about Bai Zhantang's resume, and they all began to have doubts at this time.
"Humph, I, Bai Zhantang, walk upright and sit upright, and I don't even bother to be a person who is just trying to get fame." The old white-haired Taoist argued with a red face after hearing this.
Since the other party mentioned this, he knew it would be impossible not to respond.
"Haha, who can't say that? But where is the artifact? Who has it?" Chang Houhui didn't believe it at all when he heard this and continued to laugh.
"this..."
When Bai Laodao heard this, he didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he could only hold the words in his stomach.
When the artifact was first refined, everything was done in secret, and in the end, the Evil God of Death was nowhere to be found. So he really couldn't produce any evidence.
But his silence made the surrounding weapon masters feel more problematic, and they all started pointing fingers at Bai Zhantang.
"You alone want to refine a divine weapon?"
At this time, an old man in black robe next to Chang Houhui couldn't help but turn his head and look over.
"Who is this?" The white-haired old man hesitated when he saw the person in front of him who spoke.
The other party's clothes and aura were extraordinary at first glance. He didn't dare to say anything nonsense before he understood it clearly.
"This is Zhang Boyuan, Master Zhang, whom I specially invited from the Tianwei Sect!" Chang Houhui introduced proudly.
In order to save face, he spent a lot of money this time. It took a lot of effort to convince the Heavenly Weapon Sect's weapon refining master, and he was ready to come over to avenge his shame.
"hiss!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately took a breath.
The person in front of me turned out to be Zhang Boyuan? The legendary weapon-refining master?
Isn't that awesome?
You must know that the weapon refining master is already the top weapon refining master in Xuantian Continent, and there are less than ten in the entire Xuantian Continent.
I didn’t expect to be lucky enough to meet one of them today.
Bai Laodao was secretly frightened when he heard the other party's name, and quickly answered honestly:
"Back to the Divine Master, this junior has indeed participated in the refining of the artifact."
However, his words made the old man in black robe quite disdainful.
"Hmph, is a divine weapon so easy to refine? What a shame!" The old man in black robe scolded him mercilessly with a straight face.
He has been a master of weapon refining for so many years, but he has not refined many items. He knows how difficult it is.
When the white-haired old man heard this, his face turned red with embarrassment, but he did not dare to say anything more, so he could only swallow his anger.
If the other party's words spread, it will be a huge blow to his reputation, but what can he do?
Lu Yu couldn't stand it and wanted to defend the white-haired old man, but was stopped by the white-haired old man.
They can't produce any evidence, so it's useless to say more.
After all, that person is one of the few weapon-refining masters in Xuantian Continent. If he offends the weapon-refining master, the consequences will be very serious.
Lu Yu wasn't that afraid. He was easygoing now, so what if he was offended.
However, I was worried about the old man Bai Fa beside me, so I decided to forget it. I could only see if there was a chance to help the old man Bai Fa regain his position later.
Zhang Boyuan saw that the other party only dared to endure it and did not dare to express his anger, so he snorted coldly and walked past arrogantly.
Chang Houhui followed Zhang Boyuan and couldn't help but feel gloating.
Soon, all the invited weapon-refining masters from all parties arrived, and the top executives of the Divine Sword Sect and a group of weapon-refining masters also appeared one after another.
Nangong Qing's figure finally appeared in the crowd again.
However, Lu Yu found that the other party looked at him in a strange way, seeming to be evasive.
Under the guidance of the master of the Divine Sword Sect, everyone came to the open-air weapon refining square on the weapon refining peak and saw two quasi-sacred weapons that had failed to be refined.
I saw only two quasi-divine weapons. The blades were blood red, as if blood was flowing, but the spirit of the weapons was sluggish and not very spiritual.
One by one, the masters of weapon refining went up and looked around, but they did not fail to see the problem.
Lu Yu also went up and took a look, but also found nothing.
"Master Mo, what do you think the problem is?" The white-haired old Taoist couldn't help but asked in a low voice when he saw Lu Yu coming back.
"I can't tell yet. I'll think about it later." Lu Yu said solemnly.
After saying that, he started the simulation without stopping.
When Bai Laodao heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
The other party's performance last time was really amazing, and he thought that the other party could have some different insights this time.
After most of the day, each master fumbled several times and racked his brains, but still couldn't figure out what the problem was.
In the end, all the weapon refiners looked at the black-robed weapon refiner.
This is where the opponent’s level is the highest.
I saw the black-robed divine master Zhang Boyuan walking out without hesitation.
However, he only took a rough look at the two quasi-divine weapons, and then said with disdain: "What kind of thing is this? It's so rough!"
As soon as these words came out, all the weapon refining masters were shocked.
This design is excellent in their opinion, but in the eyes of the other party, it is worthless?
Are the gaps between people so big?
Bai Laodao and all the weapon refiners from Shen Dao Sect suddenly turned pale.
These two failed artifacts were made by them together.
To say it is extremely rough, doesn't it mean that their level is too low?
"I wonder if the Master has a better way?"
Sect Master Nangong didn't look very good either, but he still asked politely.
"Of course there is. If I were to refine this artifact, it would never be like this. There is even a glimmer of hope that it can reach the middle grade." The black-robed old Taoist said calmly.
"Medium grade?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and their hearts were filled with turmoil.
You know, every artifact is extremely precious.
Unlike imperial weapons, many can be produced every year.
Nowadays, many long-established god-transforming monks are considered top-notch if they can own an artifact. It is hard to know how difficult it is to possess a mid-level artifact.
Therefore, the words of the black-robed old man made Nangong Sect Master very excited.
"I dare to ask the master, I don't know how to ask you to take action?" Nangong Sect Master asked quickly.
Although he had already thought about this when he learned that the other party was willing to come, he never officially sent out an invitation.
At this moment, he finally made a decision in his mind.
However, the other party's reaction was somewhat beyond his expectation.
"I'm really sorry. I've been very busy recently and may not be able to spare the time." The old man in black robe said with an embarrassed look on his face.
"this…"
The answer of the black-robed veteran shocked all the weapon refiners.
If the divine weapon is made, the reward from the Divine Sword Sect will definitely be quite large. How could anyone refuse it?
This divine master is so powerful. They fought for something to the death, but the other party abandoned it like a pair of worn shoes.
"I also ask the Divine Master to help me. If you want any reward, just ask. As long as the Divine Sword Sect can do it, I will not refuse!" When Nangong Jinghui saw what the other party said, he suddenly became anxious and quickly begged again.
"Yes, Master Zhang, since you are here, can you help Nangong Sect Master?" Chang Houhui on the side also helped to persuade him.
He personally invited the divine master. If he had facilitated this matter, the reward from the Divine Sword Sect would certainly not be less.
Although Bai Zhantang felt a little uncomfortable with Master Zhang's disparagement just now, he still hoped that the other party would follow suit.
No matter who helps the Divine Sword Sect refine a magical weapon, he will be sincerely happy. As for personal honor and disgrace, he has long put it aside, as long as he can help his old friends.
However, the old man in black robe remained indifferent to everyone's pleas.
"Master Nangong, it's not that I don't want to, it's actually that I have other invitations in hand and I have already agreed to them. How about I wait a few years to help you?"
The old man in black robe said with an embarrassed look.
"A few years later?"
"This is taking too long! I wonder how the master can help me first? Please tell me clearly!" Seeing that the other party continued to shirk, Nangong Jinghui gritted his teeth and raised the price again.
The other party is obviously being perfunctory. Who can say for sure what will happen in five years? Maybe the other party is busy with other things? So he couldn't let go.
Zhang Bo couldn't help but feel a little helpless when he saw that the other party was so persistent. He held his long beard and pondered for a moment before saying reluctantly:
"Well, give me a reward of one billion, and I can make an exception and help you practice once."
Zhang Boyuan seemed to have made an extremely difficult decision.
One billion?
Upon hearing this number, everyone present took a deep breath.
They usually work very hard and refine weapons for a lifetime, but they may not be able to earn one-tenth of this number.
"This..." When the Nangong Sect Master heard the price, his face suddenly turned ugly.
Although he was prepared for a heavy hemorrhage, he did not expect that the other party's asking price would be so high.
However, he still asked without giving up:
"I wonder what the success rate is?"
If he could be very sure, he gritted his teeth and agreed.
However, Zhang Boyuan just said matter-of-factly:
"Of course this cannot be guaranteed."
"..." When Nangong Jinghui heard this, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
A divine weapon cannot be completed by just one person, it must require the joint efforts of many weapon refiners.
One billion spiritual stones are required for him alone. If you include the remuneration of other masters and assistants, as well as the value of materials, how much will it cost?
