Chapter 190
“Ling’er, why is she here?” Li Su asked as he observed Auger Loli entering Bai Ling’s palace from a distance.Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com
“Father, Aunt Mo is Mother’s close friend. She often comes to visit Mother,” Li Ling’er replied.
Indeed, their daughter was a true prodigy. Despite being in her early teens, she had already reached a level equivalent to the Peak Qi Refining stage and was rapidly approaching the foundation-building stage. Her extraordinary bloodline and excellent physique had given her a head start, as she had begun her foundational training at the tender age of eight.
Li Su estimated that she might reach the foundation-building stage before the age of 13. It was no wonder that those with Immortal Spirit Roots could live for a hundred years as Nascent Soul stage cultivators. Their daughter was exceptional, even if catching up to her father would be challenging, given his unique advantages.
“Aunt Mo?” Li Su looked at Auger Loli and then at his daughter. They were about the same height and had a similar youthful appearance, with Auger Loli having a more curvaceous figure. Nevertheless, it was not entirely inaccurate for Li Ling’er to address her as “Aunt” considering their age.
Li Su hadn’t anticipated that Auger Loli had become such good friends, even confidantes, with Bai Ling. Although Bai Ling had been frozen in the Immortal Sect’s ruins for tens of thousands of years, her actual age wasn’t very old. Her ability to become best friends with Auger Loli might be related to the fact that Bai Ling had retrieved a fragment of the sacred artifact during her last expedition and gained the recognition of the Sea Clan’s influential figures. As women, they likely had plenty to discuss, therefore, they became best friends.
“Let’s go, Ling’er, and take a look,” Li Su suggested. He concealed his identity by wearing the clothes provided by Bai Ling and then led Li Ling’er towards the palace. Upon entering, they saw Bai Ling and Auger Loli engrossed in conversation.
“Ling’er~” Auger Loli greeted Li Ling’er with a rare smile. This young girl, seemingly ice-cold wherever she went, appeared pleased to see her.
“Ling’er, come, I brought you some treats,” Auger Loli said. She had also brought a gift for Li Ling’er on this visit.
Upon hearing her words, Li Su had a hunch about what she was referring to. Most likely, the Sea Clan had attempted to reforge the sacred artifact and failed, therefore, they were now seeking a skilled craftsman. Auger Loli probably hadn’t realized that the person who had given the fragment of the sacred artifact to Bai Ling was Li Su.
“Bai Ling, agree to her request,” Li Su telepathically communicated with Bai Ling, ensuring Auger Loli wouldn’t overhear.
After receiving Li Su’s message, Bai Ling hesitated for a moment and then said, “Alright, I’ll get in touch with him and see if he’s willing to help.”
Upon hearing Bai Ling’s response, Auger Loli smiled and said, “Great, I appreciate your help.” After a bit more conversation, Auger Loli left with Li Ling’er.
“Su, can you find a skilled craftsman? Reforging the sacred artifact is no easy task, even with the previous forging methods and key components. It’s a challenging endeavor,” Bai Ling inquired.
Li Su responded, “No need, I am a craftsman.”
“What?” Bai Ling couldn’t help but look at Li Su in surprise.
Li Su continued, “We can do it this way...” and then explained his plan. This opportunity presented a chance for Li Su to gain insights into the process of forging a sacred artifact. His current expertise in crafting artifacts was exceptionally advanced, but specific treasures required more exposure for him to understand them truly. The more he could interact with such items, the better.
