"Are they not letting people pass anymore? When it cos to housewives, they’re all soppy and emotional. It’s getting dark already!" In the carriage, a stifled Lan Yingwu hollered.
General Lan’s heart was filled with vexation.
That disappointing daughter of his, as people are ready to leave, she knows only to cling to her mother and cry. How co no one cos to pull him aside for a word, doesn’t anyone fear he’d be too heartbroken, to the point of falling into depression or sothing?
And then there’s that Yan Jiu.
Earlier, in front of him, he was all servile, but once he t Lady Lan, he acted like a perfectly behaved grandchild.
It made it seem like he was the only villain, Lan Yingwu felt more and more aggrieved the more he thought about it.
Watching the carriage carrying her parents leave, Lan Cai’er saw her father Lan Yingwu didn’t even give her a glance, she hugged Yan Jiu, crying like a child.
"Yan Jiu, does father truly no longer want as a daughter?" Lan Cai’er cried with a red nose and eyes, while Yan Jiu felt an uncomfortable pang in his heart, like ants gnawing at it, he gently said.
"Cai’er, I promise you, once I finish what I must do, I will personally bring our child and seek Lord Father-in-law’s forgiveness." Yan Jiu tightly held Lan Cai’er’s hand, hoping that day would not be too distant.
"Who wants to have kids with you." Lan Cai’er laughed through tears, playfully hitting Yan Jiu a few tis.
Little did Yan Jiu and Lan Cai’er know that Yan Jiu’s words would turn out to be prophetic.
Years later, he truly would visit the Lan Residence, only at that ti, the person he faced was not Lan Yingwu, but...
After General Lan and the others left, another month passed.
With Yan Jiu’s assistance, rcenary City was gradually getting on the right track.
During this period, a minor incident occurred.
Due to the disappearance of Elder Gu and several disciples from the Outer Sect, Hunyuan Sect sent people to investigate the matter.
Fortunately, Ye Lingyue and Yan Jiu were well-prepared.
The investigation by the Hunyuan Sect concluded that Elder Gu and others had, due to a mishap, encountered Green Thunder and Prohibition from the Green Thunder Dao Sect while at Purple Bamboo Ridge, leading to an unprecedented battle.
As a result, both Hunyuan Sect and Green Thunder Dao Sect suffered heavy losses, with Elder Gu and the Sect Leader of Green Thunder Dao Sect, Huang Daxian, perishing in the battle.
However, inside Ye Lingyue’s Hong ng Heaven, the seven or eight strands of transplanted Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo also underwent transformation.
That night, due to haste, Ye Lingyue only managed to transplant the shoots of the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo.
The flow of ti in Hong ng Heaven is much faster than the outside world. Within one month there, the Qiankun Purple Bamboo sprouted from the soil several tis.
Due to the enrichnt of Spiritual Energy in Hong ng Heaven, the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo also underwent so changes.
The originally half-human tall Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo incredibly shot up to several feet high, and the bamboo body also grew sturdier, covered with nodes. Seeing this, Ye Lingyue suspected that in a few months’ ti, the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo might reach the size of a grown bamboo.
Ye Lingyue had heard from Long Baobao before that the older the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo is, the better its quality.
The Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo that previously grew on Purple Bamboo Ridge was approximately one to two hundred years old, with at most one or two nodes.
However, after being transplanted into Hong ng Heaven, the nodes on the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo increased to three or four, and the most sentient ones reached five nodes.
This signified that they were now five hundred-year-old Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo.
Not just that, there were also so very cute little bamboo shoots sprouting continuously from the ground.
And moreover, the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo planted in Hong ng Heaven need not be chopped down with a weapon fused with a Fire Spirit; Ye Lingyue could easily do so by controlling her Divine Sense.
Everything was ready; all that was left was the refining process.
Ye Lingyue pondered for a mont and decided to chop down so Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo soon to try refining Qiankun Bags with it.
Long Baobao had taught Ye Lingyue how to refine Qiankun Bags, but previously, due to lack of materials, she had never attempted the refinent.
Now that the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo was thriving, Ye Lingyue decided to harvest the first batch for refining.
If the refinent was successful, Ye Lingyue planned to join the World’s First Refining anonymously with her Qiankun Bag.
Ye Lingyue was soone who acted on her decisions imdiately.
That very night, she went to the City Lord’s Mansion’s Artifact Refining Room with Little Zhiyo.
Ever since the eradication of the rcenary Alliance, Ye Lingyue had moved all the refining materials from the small Alchemy Shop to the City Lord’s Mansion, where only Long Baobao would normally use them.
After nightfall, Long Baobao had already gone to rest.
Ye Lingyue took out three segnts of Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo, each about as long as an arm, from a five-hundred-year-old plant.
Fearing that she might fail on her first attempt at refining, Ye Lingyue prepared three segnts.
With a thought, the Qian Cauldron in Ye Lingyue’s palm flew out.
One of the segnts of Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo was sucked into the Qian Cauldron.
Since the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo grown in Hong ng Heaven was very pure, the first step of Purification could almost be skipped.
Ye Lingyue imdiately proceeded to the second step, refining with Elixir Fire.
Although Ye Lingyue had other experiences in Artifact Refining, this was her first ti using her own Lifebound Pill Fire, the Gray Fire, for refining.
As the small Gray Fire leaped from her Dantian into the Qian Cauldron, Ye Lingyue couldn’t help but feel nervous.
But who would have known that before long, Ye Lingyue began to sll a charred scent.
The first segnt of five-hundred-year-old Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo was directly burned to charcoal.
Ye Lingyue felt both distressed and alard.
"What kind of ghost fire is this? It’s such a waste, even the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo, which can’t be hard by Primordial Power and spiritual power, was directly burned."
The little Gray Fire was still jumping around in Ye Lingyue’s Qian Cauldron, like a mischievous child.
Despite her complaints, Ye Lingyue knew clearly at heart that it was her first ti using her Lifebound Pill Fire to refine, and she blad herself for not having enough control.
Ye Lingyue was disheartened for a mont, but then she rethought it; the Gray Fire seed more formidable than she had imagined, otherwise, how could it have charred a piece of Purple Gold Bamboo in the blink of an eye?
Ye Lingyue adjusted her breathing and took out the second piece of Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo.
This ti, Ye Lingyue beca wiser; she carefully controlled the Gray Fire and didn’t throw the Purple Gold Bamboo directly into it.
The Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo was soon heated like an iron block until red-hot, and strands of purple-golden bamboo fibers as thin as hair were pulled out. Along with the slow burning of the Gray Fire, these fibers turned into glowing red threads.
These threads, delicate and soft like spider silk, moved under Ye Lingyue’s control.
In her mind, she sketched out the form of a Qiankun Bag, and the threads moved as if on their own, crisscrossing intricately like an invisible weaver at work.
After a full quarter of an hour, a beautiful small sachet-shaped Qiankun Bag in purple and gold landed in Ye Lingyue’s hand.
