28 Chapter 28: Good Friend Gets Married

Translator: 549690339

Xu Fan started admiring the Thousand Blades Flying Sword, made of 360 shards and forged with the valuable Meteoric Iron as its main material. The cost of the ingredients alone was tens of thousands of Spirit Stones, a price equal to that of top-tier Artifacts.

As Xu Fan’s Artifact Refining skills improved, his otaku collecting habit awakened. Now, he had more than twenty high-quality Artifacts in his collection room. What’s even more outrageous is that there were five top-tier Artifacts like the Thousand Blades.

In Lingfeng Peak, a small shop opened three years ago. Xu Fan threw the randomly refined Artifacts at Earth Heart Square to the staff and then returned to his small hill.

He had bought this small shop three years ago for over 100,000 Spirit Stones.

Sitting in the small cabin on the Lingfeng Boat, Xu Fan felt a bit emotional. He seemed to be in his twenties already. In his past life, if he hadn’t gone to college, he would have started blind dating.

“Should I find a girlfriend too?”

“I’ve been eating inexplicable dog food lately.”

As soon as Xu Fan’s voice fell, a beautiful figure passed by not far from the Lingfeng Boat, with a green Escaping Light leisurely chasing after her.

“Senior Sister Si Yun, come and chase me.”

The sound like a silver bell could make any young man fall into a fantasy.

“…….”

The Lingfeng Boat burst with a large amount of Spiritual Power, and its speed increased nearly threefold.

Everyone saw a streak of Escaping Light rapidly crossing the sky.

Some of the newcomers who had just entered the sect curiously looked at the sky in awe. Was this the speed of Foundation Establishment seniors?

Xu Fan returned to the small hill he lived on and went to the newly-built collection room from two years ago.

He casually used the Wood Spirit Technique to create a special rack for flying swords. After placing the Thousand Blades Flying Sword on it, Xu Fan began admiring his masterpiece.

At that moment, the phone-like Artifact in his arms vibrated, and the latest news from the Heavenly Gate appeared on it.

1. The address of the Ten-year Xiangzhou Sect Exchange Meeting will be held within the Heavenly Gate. Practitioners from all Cultivation Sects in Xiangzhou will gather at the Heavenly Gate for three months.

2. The Sect’s Floating Skyship is damaged. It is estimated that it encountered a large-scale Beast Tide in the Endless Sea.

3. Recently, a large Spirit Stone Vein was discovered within the Heavenly Gate’s controlled area.

4. Refining Equipment Peak is recruiting a large number of First-tier Artifact Refiners, suspected to be related to repairing the Floating Skyship.

5. Yesterday, Ye Xiaoyao of Ten Thousand Swords Peak fought against our Sect’s Golden Core defector, and the Foundation Establishment killed a Golden Core Cultivator. A new Celestial Favorite has been born within our Sect.

Xu Fan’s eyes flashed when he saw the fourth item. He was now a First-tier Artifact Refiner. He wondered if he would be allowed access to the Floating Skyship after entering the Refining Equipment Peak.

And Ye Xiaoyao, he was truly the protagonist. Just within a few years, he had the ability to kill a Golden Core Cultivator. Was his grandpa-like presence awakened inside?

Over the three years, thanks to Xu Fan’s gluttony, drinking Soul Eater Bee Honey, and using Satiety Skill, his strength had rapidly progressed, and it couldn’t be suppressed. Now, he had reached the 8th Level of Qi Training.

He had already mastered the Ancient Elixir Formula and Divine Technique Jade Slip obtained from the Secret Realm.

“I don’t know if I can fight against Golden Core Cultivators when I advance to the Foundation Establishment Stage.”

Xu Fan said and picked up a Dragon Pearl Artifact the size of a billiard ball. Threads of dragon chanting came from the Dragon Pearl, and it was Xu Fan’s proudest Artifact. It could summon a Flood Dragon Soul and had the average combat power of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Then there was a corresponding soul artifact next to it that matched with the Flood Dragon Soul as a carrier. When the two artifacts worked together, the Flood Dragon Soul would have the top battle power of the Foundation Establishment Stage, killing ordinary Foundation Establishment demonic beasts like butchering chickens and dogs. Xu Fan had tested the artifacts himself.

At this moment, the Forbidden Bell Sound rang, and Murong Qian’er entered with a big food box while Wang Yulun happily followed her.

In the pavilion, Xu Fan looked at the sweet couple with some amazement, rarely seeing someone flaunt their love for three years right in front of him.

“What’s the happy occasion that has you so excited? Has your mother-in-law finally agreed?” Xu Fan asked.

After the Secret Realm, Wang Yulun went back and presented the Soul Eater Bee Honey to his mother-in-law, winning her favor, then the betrothal gift was reduced from 1 million Spirit Stones to 800,000 Spirit Stones.

At first, Xu Fan wanted to help his friends, but then he changed his mind. It’s the Cultivation World, and even getting married at 100 years old is not too late.

“Yeah, the 15th of next month is the big day for Qian’er and me. Brother Xu, you must come,” said Wang Yulun. Over the past three years, he had finally been able to give his lover a proper title.

“Well, congratulations in advance.”

While they were talking, Murong Qian’er had already set the food from the food box.

“How fortunate you are to have such a good marriage,” Xu Fan said, looking at the virtuous Murong Qian’er beside Wang Yulun.

I don’t need such sweet love. I am someone who’s striving to become an Immortal Emperor. What woman in this world could be worthy of me?

Looking at the table full of food, after last time’s trip to the Secret Realm, Xu Fan finished three tables of food, and Wang Yulun found an Artifact Refiner to create a special food box artifact to hold the food.

Every few days, he and Murong Qian’er would bring food from the Wine Pavilion to see Xu Fan, regardless of any obstacles. And of course, this kid also took quite a few benefits.

After eating, Xu Fan thought for a moment and directly took the couple to his Artifact and Magical Treasure collection room.

Entering the collection room, the couple’s eyes instantly shined. A 40-square-meter room was filled with various Artifacts.

“Brother Xu, no wonder you never let me into this room. This is your treasure house,” Wang Yulun scanned the room full of Artifacts with excitement, feeling that every one of them was a masterpiece.

“Brother Xu, you are the most talented person I have ever seen. You are simply omnipotent in battle, alchemy, and artifact refinement,” Murong Qian’er praised.

The topic of their conversations always centered around his life-saving benefactor, and if someone in the Outer Disciples knew that Xu Fan, who had only been in the Sect for less than ten years, had become both an Alchemist and Artifact Refiner, they would be shocked.

What is even more shocking for the couple is that they, who are both Outer Disciples and Preparatory Disciples of the Battle Hall, couldn’t even last one round against Xu Fan. At that moment, Murong Qian’er’s entire worldview was overturned.

Xu Fan taught her what fighting really meant.

“Since you two are getting married, I don’t have anything good to give you. Each of you can pick an Artifact as my wedding gift to you.”

Xu Fan valued the Artifacts in the collection, but refining another one was not too difficult. He should help his friends in their marriage and give them a good Artifact.

The couple was overjoyed. For the Battle Hall disciples, a masterpiece Artifact was a guarantee of their lives.

After careful selection,

Murong Qian’er had her eyes on a set of two Artifacts called the Heart-Sealing Swords. One sword was pink and the other white, with the white sword being faster and having Breaking Armor ability. The other pink sword created illusions to confuse the enemy’s mind.

Wang Yulun, on the other hand, chose the Thousand Blades Flying Sword that Xu Fan had just refined. During a battle, the splitting and random combination of the sword would catch the opponent off guard.
