After replying to the letter, Chu Liang took a nap in his small house and only woke up in the afternoon to tidy up and report to his master.

When he arrived at his master's loft, he found Di Nvfeng sitting there crying while holding a picture book.

Seeing Chu Liang enter, she quickly closed the book and wiped her eyes.

"...Did you cry, Master?" Chu Liang asked.

"No," Di Nvfeng shook her head with red eyes.

"Did the relationship between the male and female leads break down?" Chu Liang asked.

"It's not that serious...the male lead just died," Di Nvfeng shook her head again.

"Take care," Chu Liang said silently.

Who would have thought that this tyrant of Shu Mountain would have a sentimental heart of a young girl?

Di Nvfeng looked at him again, "Did everything go smoothly?"

Chu Liang briefly reported what he could, and it went smoothly overall, and he didn't even need to use the jade talisman given by his master.

"Not bad, you can handle things on your own now," Di Nvfeng praised.

"I still rely on the confidence my master gave me," Chu Liang immediately responded with emotional intelligence.

"Okay, then give me back the jade talisman," Di Nvfeng said casually.

"Huh?" Chu Liang frowned, seeming to not understand the word, "Give it back?"

"You've finished your task, aren't you going to give it back to me?" Di Nvfeng blinked.

"But Master said it's a life-saving skill for disciples," Chu Liang said.

"Alas, who knows you've never used it," Di Nvfeng sighed, "I've been worried these days that I won't be able to rush over when I receive your call for help. I used to sleep for seven hours a day, but now I wake up after only five hours. If this goes on, I'll have a nervous breakdown."

Okay.

You know you sleep for seven hours a day.

Aren't you afraid of becoming a vegetable?

Chu Liang silently criticized, but still had to maintain a smile and said, "Master, I suddenly remembered that I saw a drink with a good taste at the foot of the mountain. I bought some and brought it back for Master to taste."

As he spoke, he took out a can of honey tea.

"What is this?" Di Nvfeng took it and suspiciously sniffed it, "Are you trying to drug me?"

Chu Liang smiled.

The amount of medicine that could poison your constitution could probably poison thousands of elephants in a bucket of water, which is not enough to fit in this can.

As he spoke, he saw Di Nvfeng take a sip and her eyes light up.

"Hmm...this stuff really tastes good. I've never had such...such sweet water before," Di Nvfeng sipped, "If you add some alcohol to it, it should taste even better."

"Do you like it, Master?" Chu Liang asked.

"It's not bad," Di Nvfeng nodded.

"Then I'll buy more next time and give it to Master as a filial piety," Chu Liang said, then immediately said goodbye, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back now. I still have to go to the Sword Transmission Hall later."

Without waiting for Di Nvfeng to wave her hand, he directly left.

His back seemed to have a sense of urgency.

Di Nvfeng looked at him leaving and suddenly frowned.

"Huh? Did I forget something?"

...

Chu Liang's claim of going to the Sword Transmission Hall was not a lie.

He went straight to the top of the mountain, handed over some useless items he had confiscated, exchanged them for a few sword coins, and then came to the second floor of the Sword Transmission Hall.

The corridors of the Sword Transmission Hall were decorated with many ancient scrolls, all of which were human artifacts ranked high on the Wanbao Record. The most prominent of them was the legendary Shu Mountain Demon-Sealing Tower.

At first, Chu Liang had suspected that the white tower he had obtained might be the lost Demon-Sealing Tower. However, the appearance of the white tower was very different from the Demon-Sealing Tower depicted in the scroll, which dispelled his suspicion.There are several special quiet rooms on both sides of the long corridor.

"Hello, I want to refine a magic weapon." Chu Liang walked into one of them and directly stated his purpose.

"Senior brother, please sit down."

In the room was a male disciple who looked younger than him, fair and thin, with childishness on his face but a calm and mature gaze.

However, Chu Liang would never underestimate the younger disciple because of his age. Those who were responsible for refining magic weapons here were all personally transmitted disciples of Elder Chuanjian, and they must have achieved something.

Elder Chuanjian was one of the four elders of the Zhenshan Mountains and his status was above that of the thirty-six peak masters. To become his personal disciple, both talent and effort were indispensable.

Being young only meant being more talented.

"My name is Wen Yulong. You can tell me if you have any needs or questions about refining." The young disciple was very polite.

"I accidentally obtained a good material." Chu Liang took out his own green leaf, "I want to refine it into a magic weapon. Do you have any recommendations?"

Wen Yulong took the green leaf and carefully examined it in his palm, injecting a trace of true energy to catalyze it to glow.

"Hmm?" He nodded lightly, "This green leaf... should be the life object refined by a tree demon at least at the peak of the fourth realm, but it is not complete enough. The material is indeed excellent."

Immersed in thought, he continued, "If it is to be refined into a magic weapon, I recommend two sets of formations that can be refined. One is for flying, which can be refined into a wind-control magic weapon; the other is for defense, which can be refined into a defense magic weapon. These two are more suitable for the material itself. If you want other abilities, you can also consider them, but the effect will not be as good."

Flying... defense...

Chu Liang thought for a while, and he really didn't have both of them at the moment.

But he didn't know much about refining, so he asked again, "Which set of formations do you think is better?"

"The flying formation is simpler and less risky, because we are not responsible for the failure of refining. Do you know that? We will only refund the refining cost but not the material cost." Wen Yulong said, "The defense formation is slightly more complicated, but it is more practical and definitely better to use in battle."

As he spoke, he seemed hesitant and stopped talking.

"Of course, because the effect of the first refining is the best, it is best to add both sets of formations in the first refining." He finally couldn't help but add.

"Can I add both?" Chu Liang was puzzled, "Of course I want both."

"Adding both is indeed the best, but it will be... expensive." Wen Yulong whispered, "And the difficulty is higher, it is easy to fail. Master usually does not allow us to do this..."

Chu Liang then understood why he was so hesitant.

If a disciple of Chuanjian Hall recommended a more expensive option, it would likely be seen as a sales pitch and easily misunderstood. Moreover, it was still a more likely to fail direction, which would damage the reputation of Chuanjian Hall.

It would be better to make more simple magic weapons that everyone would be happy with.

But...

Those mediocre magic weapons were meaningless, and they were easily eliminated as one's cultivation improved. In fact, it was a loss when calculated carefully.

Chu Liang said without hesitation, "Then add both sets. I just want the best effect."

Wen Yulong's eyes lit up, "Senior brother, aren't you worried about the risk?"

"There is always a risk in refining magic weapons, but I believe you will do your best, right?" Chu Liang smiled, "How much does it cost?"

"If both sets of formations are added, it will be one hundred sword coins." Wen Yulong said.

The smile on Chu Liang's face disappeared instantly.However, he also knew that, compared to refining tools, this was indeed a fair price. After all, if successful, it might mean having an additional treasure of good quality.

So he gritted his teeth and said, "A hundred sword coins is not a small amount, I hope it can be successful."

"Senior Brother, rest assured, even though I am young, I have already refined twelve magical tools on my own..." Wen Yulong nodded heavily in response, "I also hope to succeed once."
