Chapter 1269 Why is Everyone Gathered Here?
"Let me explain..." Seeing the confusion on Qing Yi's face along with the disbelief on Chu Yang and Chun Hua's faces, Xuan Hao decided to step forward to explain what had happened while observing the drastic change in Qing Yi's expression when she heard that she had broken through to the Fourth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm with the help of some kind of strange ball of fire that had been made by Mui.
"This... Thank you for the helping me breaking through to the Fourth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm and stabilizing my cultivation base, I really don't know what else to say..." Calming down quickly after listening to Xuan Hao explain what had happened, Qing Yi rushed over and thanked Mui for her help.
"Hehe, no need to thank me, I just didn't want to wait for weeks until senior sister stabilized her cultivation base." Smiling proudly, Mui looked like she had planned out everything from the start as she said this.
""...""
Watching Qing Yi and Mui talking happily with each other, Chu Yang and Chun Hua could not help silently thinking about what would have happened if the ball of fire hadn't been perfectly absorbed by Qing Yi, but instead blew up instead.
In a sense, both of them didn't dare think about asking their junior sister for help when they broke through in the future after remembering what their master said.
What happened today with Qing Yi could be considered a coincidence that was best for them to not try and recreate or they might end up dying without even knowing how. After all, the things created by this little junior were strong enough to avoid their master, let alone them...
Following the small get together between his disciples to celebrate Qing Yi's breakthrough to the Domain Lord Realm, Xuan Hao also decided to spend the next few days teaching and guiding all of them together.
Allowing the four of them to get an opportunity to train together without it being related to Chu Yang dragging someone off to the Combat Hall... And to make things fairer when they did a few practice battles, Xuan Hao made sure to lower their cultivation realms down to the Nascent Soul Realm so Mui could also participate.
Surprisingly, even though Mui should have stood no chance against the three as their insight and combat experience was far superior to her, she still somehow managed to come out victorious in any battle she participated in due to the countless strange metal balls that she had stored away inside of her interspatial ring.
From a metal ball that could create countless balls of ice that seemed to increase in strength along with the strength of the user to a metal ball that could grow without a limit and used to smash into opponents as long as there was enough qi, Mui's fighting style was unpredictable and hard to counter.
Even when all three of them tried to team up on her with their Nascent Soul Realm cultivation base, none of them were able to win against her and only after Xuan Hao put a ban on her using her metal balls, did she return to the level of an ordinary Nascent Soul Realm cultivator
After all, his goal with them having a few practice battles was for them to practice some of the techniques he taught them together. Not for Mui to single-handedly beat up the others with her strange creations.
In the end, all four of them were fine with this and continued practicing together even after Xuan Hao finished teaching them what he had planned to teach them.
Of course, Xuan Hao was overjoyed to see this as it meant his disciples got along well with each other. Although, he did feel that it was a bit of pity that Bai Ning wasn't around, so he decided to pay a visit to the Sea of a Thousand Furnaces to check up on him and see if he could get him to join the rest of his disciples after he finished crafting the Mystic Grade Greatsword he had seen him working on while watching over Qing Yi during her breakthrough.
Cling~ Cling~ Cling~
"Yeah, he was just a bit confused!"
"Indeed, I also heard he has been drinking quite a bit of spiritual wine before coming here, the kind crafted by that Peng Yun fellow."
Narrowing both his eyes after hearing the words by these elders, Feng Chen didn't have to listen to the entire story from the now silent elder to know what these elders were up to.
They wanted to try and get Mystic Grade Weapons directly from Bai Ning instead of going through Elder Song to get their hands on them. Hoping that they would be able to get them cheaper this way, as the contribution points required to get a single Mystic Grade Weapon was not something any of them could afford without years of hard work.
This was normal considering how rare Mystic Grade Artifacts and Weapons were in the first place and the resources required to craft them.
Even in a massive empire like the Blue Sea Empire, it was hard for anyone below the Late Stage of the Domain Lord Realm to afford something like a Mystic Grade Weapon, let alone someone in the First Stage of the Domain Lord Realm...
"Oh... Are all of you really that free? Hm... Seems like I will have to ask Elder Song to assign all of you to help out the sect in the future. Maybe sending you to help stabilizing the newer territory of the sect or helping with the border situation?"
"S-Sect Master, let's not jump to conclusions, I-I'm really busy right now and just happened to pass by, I will get going!"
"Me too, my disciples are still waiting for me..."
"... I have lecture to attend to..."
"... My husband is going into labor!"
"Huh? I'm what?"
"Let's go!"
Whoosh-!
Whoosh-!
Whoosh-!
Not wasting any time after hearing what Feng Chen said, all of the elders scattered like the wind. Disappearing from the area in front of the forge like they had never been there in the first place.
