Han Lingshi and Hao Ren watched as the man crumbled into dust. The impact of the contradictory nature of the flas was so intense that even the landscape had been affected. The immortal soul of the carbonized Sect Master had also been scattered to the winds. He would not even gave a chance to go through the wheels of reincarnation.
The people were stunned, they have seen brutal thods to kill people, but this ti around, they had seen a thod that caused their souls to shiver. Hao Ren looked at the people and said, "Seniors, you all seem to be followers of the righteous path. I am a humble artifact refiner residing in the Cauldron Valley, I go by the na Ren. If you all want, I can try to refine an artifact for you, but please don’t expect it to be a heavenly level one. Those things are not as easy as cooking an egg.
I am telling you all this because I want you to know that all that I did was to retaliate against the greedy cultivators who used innocent people as leverage and tried to snatch away the artifact that I worked hard to create."
He was spewing bullshit without blinking his eyes. However, this bullshit painted the outline of the picture for these elders to understand why he did what he did. In the world of cultivation, people would often find trouble with the one they thought was weak. However, Hao Ren was anything but weak, and his status as a grandmaster refiner was enough for these people to think twice.
Recently a holy land was abandoned and fell from grace because they misused their authority and pissed off the artifact refiners completely. Since then it had beco a taboo to ss with supporting professions. The people nodded and then one of them said, "Grandmaster Ren, you don’t have to worry, we understand that you did these things to protect yourself and your hard work. Many people say that only the strong should take command of the good things, but I disagree, only the righteous shall take command of the treasures. The things that you gained through hard work are yours, and we agree to that. If soone cos to trouble you, my High Tower House would be the first to defy them."
Hao Ren smiled and bowed to the old man as he said, "Elder, you can send ten of your best talents and I will craft a weapon suitable for them."
Hearing this many people stepped forward to vouch for help. Hao Ren smiled and replied, "I will give five talents each from your forces a weapon each, however, I will test their talents first, if they could not reveal the true potential of my weapons, then you will have to find soone who can, that is all."
The elders all nodded with smiles on their faces, and then Hao Ren greeted them as he held his wife’s hand and vanished from the place. The people also decided that they would go back to their forces and run a tournant to decide whom will get the weapons from Hao Ren.
...
The couple returned to the Cauldron Valley and they ca to the refiner council building to find the city lord of the teor fall city. The lady was worried, but then she saw Hao Ren and Han Lingshi coming over with faint smiles, and the young man said, "City Lord Kalai, you can rest easy, the problems have been removed. You can head back to your city and in a few days, I will send you the puppets. You can also use the spiritual contract with my wife to ensure paynt in parts."
Kalai was shocked and she asked, "What do you an by removed?"
Hao Ren smiled and replied, "Lingshi will tell you all this. I will be heading back ho as I have a few more things to handle."
Kalai nodded in a daze, as she turned to look at Han Lingshi who said, "Shall we talk sowhere else, City Lord Kalai?"
The lady nodded and then they left to a different place.
...
After a few minutes, Hao Ren appeared before the refining room and he took out the moon hourglass as he sighed. Xiao i appeared beside him, she asked, "Hmmm, what is this?"
Hao Ren smiled and said, "If you want to know what this is you will need to categorize it as an SSS rank secret, apart from , none could know."
Xiao i frowned and after a thought she nodded and said, "I understand, what is this?"
Hao Ren smiled and replied, "This is an artifact. A divine level artifact that can accelerate the ti flow inside a specific range. However, it burns lifeti."
Xiao i raised her eyebrows and said, "Hmmm, interesting. Can I stand on the side and observe while you use it?"
Hao Ren thought about it and then he said, "Can you set up a few things to record the process, you can focus on the experience first. Then deduce the changes and other things."
Xiao i nodded and quickly set up a few micro caras around the forge and then Hao Ren turned the hourglass upside down as the sand began pour through the small hole. The young man began to refine the various parts of the puppet in peace while Xiao i watched the entire thing from a corner which was not affected by the hourglass.
She was shocked but then she began to do what an AI would do, research, record, and replicate. She tried to decode the reason behind this was happening, and after a few minutes, she stopped and shook her head as she arrived upon a conclusion. This was not sothing that she could understand just because she wanted to, her data about the laws of ti was basically nil.
The young man took a deep breath after a few hours of work, and he looked up at Xiao i as he said, "Keep recording, kiddo, gradually you will find sothing."
Xiao i nodded, and Hao Ren spent several long days inside the moon hourglass range and he assembled several puppets. After he finished doing everything, he turned to look at Xiao i, and said, "Get Yang, and tell him to deliver this to Sypher’s office, that old man would know where to deliver them."
...
Hao Ren ca out of the refining room and he found Han Lingshi sitting on the couch and the young lady took a deep breath and asked, "What do you think will happen now?"
Hao Ren shrugged as he sat down beside her and replied, "Love, now, we will gain so reputation among the people of the Spirit Siphon Continent, and they will learn how to not ss with us, and be respectful."
Han Lingshi humd as she looked at him and said, "Well, I have sothing to tell you."
Hao Ren asked, "What is it?"
Han Lingshi smiled and said, "Only if you promise to be a good boy."
