Immortal Soaring Blade

Vol.2-Chapter 209 – To Meet Again After a Long Period of Separation

Seeing Fu Hongling’s angry expression, Ou Yezi’s expression became serious, and he put away that unruly expression.

“What? If I don’t help your little junior brother refine a treasure, you will use force?” The aura around Ou Yezi suddenly changed. It seemed like Ou Yezi already knew Zhao Jiuge’s identity.

Zhao Jiuge’s eyes narrowed. He wondered if his senior sister was really going to make a move. This was the Sword Casting Hall! Also, last time Zhao Jiuge was here, he saw Ou Yezi’s strength. Ou Yezi also had Soul Formation cultivation like his senior sister.

Sha Sha didn’t seem to care, and when she noticed Fu Hongling’s aura, she was very happy. She was just waiting for her senior sister to give the command so she could cause a mess here. She was not afraid of anything.

Seeing Fu Hongling’s expressionless face remain silent for a long time, Ou Yezi’s expression sank and he solemnly said, “Although you have been at the peak of the Soul Formation Realm for many years, this master’s cultivation is not bad either!”

It seemed like a big battle was going to erupt. However, the tense atmosphere seemed to find an outlet and suddenly dispersed.

The fierce Fu Hongling suddenly smiled, which shocked Zhao Jiuge. Fu Hongling shook her head and smiled. “What is the Grandmaster saying? How would I dare to make a move against you? However, Teacher told me to bring my little junior brother here to refine his life flying sword. Grandmaster knows how important a life flying sword is to us sword cultivators.”

Seeing Fu Hongling smile and her oppressive aura disappear, Ou Yezi secretly felt relieved. Although he was not afraid of Fu Hongling, it would be a headache to deal with her.

At this moment, he withdrew his arrogance a little and his tone loosened a bit. “A life flying sword is very important, but even if your teacher came here, it would be impossible for him to force me to refine a flying sword. Refining is my choice, and I refine what I want to refine. Who can force me? Are you disciples from the Mysterious Heaven Temple all the same? Only know how to use the name of the Head Teacher to bully people?”

At first, Ou Yezi’s tone was relaxed, but he got more and more angry as he spoke. He seemed to remember when Fu Hongling made him refine a treasure in the past. Zhao Jiuge became nervous when he heard Ou Yezi’s tone shift to anger. He was afraid his senior sister would get angry as well.

Fortunately, Fu Hongling’s smile remained. “What is the Grandmaster saying? Even if our teacher came to ask you, he would only ask and not force you.”

Fu Hongling suddenly changed the topic. “However, I heard that if there are good materials, Grandmaster would even refine a treasure without being asked.”

After she finished speaking, the smile on her face became playful.

At first, Ou Yezi only let out a cold snort, but after hearing the latter part, his face became curious like a child. He said in an uncertain tone, “That’s true, but normal materials won’t catch my attention. If you want me to refine something ordinary, then don’t even think about it.”

This time, Fu Hongling ignored Ou Yezi and turned toward Zhao Jiuge. She softly said, “Little Junior Brother, take out the Chilling Ice Luan Phoenix’s soul essence, the sword embryo, and the Purple Ji Spirit Stone for the Grandmaster. As for the rest of the materials, I’ll get them for you from the Treasure Pavilion.”

Hearing this, Zhao Jiuge obediently took them out.

When Ou Yezi heard “Chilling Ice Luan Phoenix’s soul essence,” he was startled and then his face was filled with disbelief. Then his unblinking gaze locked onto Zhao Jiuge.

Fu Hongling looked like she had everything planned from the start. She had a faint smile on her face and coldly watched from the side.

When he saw the Chilling Ice Luan Phoenix’s soul essence, Ou Yezi’s expression suddenly changed. Watching the mini ice phoenix struggle, Ou Yezi trembled in excitement and quickly said, “I’ll refine this flying sword for you, I’ll refine it for free. I guarantee it will be a spirit treasure, perhaps even a top-quality spirit treasure!”

Zhao Jiuge was still a bit confused. Why had Ou Yezi’s attitude changed so much? Could it have been the Chilling Ice Luan Phoenix’s soul essence? Zhao Jiuge knew it was precious, but it didn’t seem like it would be enough to make Ou Yezi this excited.

“What? Didn\'t the Grandmaster say he wouldn’t refine a treasure for my little junior brother?” Fu Hongling folded her arms and had a playful smile on her face.

Ou Yezi smiled mischievously and didn’t mind the embarrassment. He was like a child who had found their favorite toy. His gaze was locked onto the soul essence in Zhao Jiuge’s hand. “Well, isn’t there a material that makes me want to refine now? This is the soul essence of a spirit beast! Normally, only Soul Formation Realm spirit beasts have soul essences. Even though I have been refining treasures for so long, I have only ever refined two treasures using soul essences.”

Due to the excitement, Ou Yezi’s breathing became rushed. “Let me refine it. The other dozen masters here don’t have the experience I do.” In order to refine the soul essence, he had dropped his pride.

“Senior Sister, this soul essence is very precious, you should take it back.” Zhao Jiuge was shocked by how precious it was. He knew it was extraordinary, but he didn’t expect it to be this precious. He felt embarrassed for taking it.

Facing Zhao Jiuge, Fu Hongling only faintly smiled. “Fool, since I gave it to you, how could I take it back? It\'s just an item. If you continue, I’ll become angry.”

Hearing Fu Hongling’s words, Zhao Jiuge didn’t know what to say. His eyes were filled with gratitude, and he remembered his kindness.

Seeing Zhao Jiuge no longer refuse, Fu Hongling turned toward Master Ou Yezi. “Then we’ll trouble the Grandmaster to refine the sword. My Heavenly Phoenix Sword was also refined by the Grandmaster. I hope that the Grandmaster will pay extra attention to my little junior brother’s sword.”

After hearing this, Ou Yezi immediately took the sword embryo, the soul essence, and the Purple Ji Spirit Stone from Zhao Jiuge. It was as if he was afraid of Fu Hongling changing her mind.

Then Ou Yezi’s eyes widened and he somewhat unhappily said, “Of course, my name is on the line. When has any treasure I refined been poor?”

Seeing Fu Hongling nod, Ou Yezi quickly said, “Don’t worry, the sword embryo is already complete and it will be no trouble to refine the soul essence inside. Come back in a bit over a month to drop your blood on it. Your life flying sword will definitely be no worse than your senior sister’s Heavenly Phoenix Sword.”

Then he threw a jade tube at Fu Hongling and rushed toward the furnace underground. It looked like his hands were itching and he couldn’t wait.

After Ou Yezi completely disappeared, Fu Hongling finally couldn’t endure it anymore and laughed.

“Master Ou Yezi has the temperament of a child, and everything has to be his way. He is a bit strange, but there is no questioning his skill. Both mine and Sha Sha’s life swords were refined by him. If it was anyone else, I would feel a bit uneasy and be afraid of them wasting the soul essence.”

Zhao Jiuge secretly felt happy. With the sword embryo, the precious soul essence, and the Purple Ji Spirit Stone as the main materials, along with other supplement materials, the result would not be bad. He would soon have the life flying sword he had always dreamed of.

“Senior Sister, I sincerely thank you. If not for you, my life flying sword would be a lot worse.” Zhao Jiuge sincerely looked at Fu Hongling.

Fu Hongling jokingly scolded, “I didn’t see you as someone so sentimental. Since you called me ‘Senior Sister,’ I won’t let you down.”

“Senior Sister is biased. You didn’t give me something this precious when refining my Delicate Willow Sword.” Sha Sha’s cheeks were puffed; however, it was obvious from her eyes that she wasn’t serious. Her Delicate Willow Sword was a high-quality spirit treasure.

Fu Hongling could only smile and shake her head. The soul essence was precious even to her. She just happened to encounter the spirit beast and had killed it to obtain its soul essence. She really wanted to spoil her little junior brother.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you to where Elder Li is located. You will study with the other direct disciples and inner disciples. What you will learn is not only the sword art, but other basic cultivation knowledge. After I take you there, I’ll go to the Treasure Pavilion and get the rest of the materials for you.”

Zhao Jiuge happily nodded. “I’m really looking forward to it. I was doing missions to slowly gather the materials. It looks like the materials I have gathered are not useful anymore. I didn’t expect it to be so easy.”

Fu Hongling ‘s expression immediately turned stern and she said, “You think the materials are for free? You will have to return them later, we are just lending them to you for now.”

Zhao Jiuge was startled and let out a cry. His mouth is wide open while he looked at Fu Hongling.

Sha Sha couldn’t help but laugh.

The Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect always taught their disciples like this. They first taught character and then cultivation. Even the disciples of the Head Teacher were no exception. The Treasure Pavilion was set up for this reason—it was to inspire the disciples to grow stronger.

“What is there to laugh about? You were exactly the same as Little Junior Brother back then.” Fu Hongling scolded Sha Sha, but she was smiling.

Hearing Fu Hongling’s words, it was Zhao Jiuge’s turn to laugh. No wonder Sha Sha was laughing so happily—it turned out that she thought the same.

At this moment, their expressions switched, and it was Sha Sha who was pouting.
