Xu Fan turned around and glanced at his disciples, his gaze lingering on Li
Xingci.
“l didn’t expect the senior to be interested in my mediocre disciples.” Xu Fan said to the four disciples behind him: “Introduce yourselves to the senior.”
“In case he could give you a few pieces of advice, that would benefit you all for life.” Xu Fan said, against his heart.
“Xu Gang, the eldest disciple under Master’s instruction.” Xu Gang said expressionlessly, thinking that he could probably defeat this female cultivator after he advances to the Void Refining Stage.
“Xu Yuexian, second disciple under Master’s instruction.” Xu Yuexian said. Looking at the red-robed female cultivator staring at Li Xingci, she started pondering a question, can this invisible talent also be inherited?
“Wang Xiangchi, third disciple under Master’s instruction.” Wang Xiangchi said in a plain voice, his mind still preoccupied with the profoundness of the few sword stances that the Integration Stage middle-aged cultivator used just now.
“Li Xingci, fourth disciple under Master’s instruction.” Li Xingci said nonchalantly. He seemed to have never been financially dependent on someone else in his past lives, he might give it a try next time.
The red-robed female cultivator looked deeply at Li Xingci, feeling a special charm about him that attracted her, especially those deep eyes. It seemed as if they attracted her to delve into the layers of mist beneath and probe Li Xingci’s true mind.
Seeing the female cultivator’s intoxicated eyes, Xu Fan felt that something was off – this unguarded expression of hers wasn’t quite fitting with her status as a Great Power of the Integration Stage.
The middle-aged cultivator, being a good friend and colleague of the red-robed female cultivator for many years, looked at Li Xingci with surprise after seeing his friend’s gaze.
This almost 500-year-old woman, thankfully, has finally shown some worldly desire. After being colleagues for three hundred years, I can finally relax, the middle-aged cultivator thought.
The red-robed female cultivator cast a meaningful glance at Li Xingci, then softly said to Xu Fan, “Elder Xu, I quite like this immortal-like scenery. I wonder if I could arrange a place for me to cultivate here.”
“I exerted a bit too much strength in the fight against that Integration Stage Thick Armored Honey Badger earlier, now, I’m feeling a little unwell in my operations of spiritual qi.”
I call bullshit, just how insincere can your excuse be?
Out of the intention to seek help, Xu Fan cast a glance at the middle-aged cultivator, implying if he could control his colleague.
Unknowingly, the middle-aged cultivator just gave Xu Fan an only-men-would-understand glance and told Xu Fan through a voice
transmission to agree to it for the time being.
“It just so happens, Elder Xu’s sect doesn’t have a fighter at the Integration Stage. ”
“If Elder Xu is not particular about it, you could give the title of nominal elder to Fellow Daoist Rantian.” The middle-aged cultivator said to Xu Fan.
“Fine”
Following the spirit of love to see excitement, Xu Fan said to Li Xingci, “Since the senior wants to find a place to rest here, Star Ci, you should lead the senior to choose a location and get the design done along the way.”
“My disciple was born with a knack for ideation, the current scenery of the sect is all his doing.” Xu Fan said to the middle-aged cultivator and the red-robed female cultivator.
The red-robed female cultivator then got up and said to Li Xingci, “Let’s go, take me to choose a location.’
Sitting behind Xu Fan, Li Xingci looked at his master and then at the red-robed female cultivator, suddenly feeling as if he was a girl being pushed out to be sold by the madam in a worldly brothel.
“l obey,” Li Xingci reluctantly paid a salute to Xu Fan after getting up.
“Senior, please follow me.” Li Xingci said to the red-robed female cultivator, wondering what he should do if this woman really has taken a fancy to him.
Should I awkwardly reject or go with the flow? Li Xingci fell into deep thought.
After the red-robed female cultivator and Li Xingci left, the middle-aged cultivator took out his spiritual sword.
“Elder Xu, please have a look at this sword.”
Xu Fan took the spiritual sword handed over by the middle-aged cultivator.
“Xuantai Steel as the main body, supplemented with Thousand Star Stone and
Shattered Star Iron, the Rune Array of the sword itself has the capabilities of PO Ling, Beheading Evil, Sword Transformation, and Heavenly Punishment.” Xu Fan then pointed to the blade and the tip of the sword.
“Slightly damaged, it should be the result of colliding with a Dao Artifact of the same level, the issue is not serious for the time being.”
In a few concise words, Xu Fan revealed all the information about the spiritual sword, almost to the point of evaluating how the Artifact Refiner who refined this spiritual sword was thinking while refining it.
Hearing Xu Fan’s words, the face of the middle-aged cultivator turned a bit dark.
Why are the evaluations exactly the same as the Refining Masters in the headquarters, even the tone sounds similar? This is an impressive Dao Artifact spiritual sword, why are you guys describing it as so ordinary?
“Can Elder Xu critique it further. but more in-depth?” The middle-aged cultivator asked.
Xu Fan looked at the sword, his expression froze for a moment. Could it be that there’s more than meets the eye with this sword?
“This is just a very ordinary Dao Artifact spiritual sword. If you really want me to go deeper, then it’s that the Artifact Refiner seemed a bit distracted while refining this Dao Artifact spiritual sword.”
“No wonder, after all, they don’t need to be focused when making this sort of beginner-level spiritual sword made by Refining Masters.” Only after observing the spiritual sword for a while did Xu Fan formally comment.
“Elder Xu, can you fix this sword?” The middle-aged cultivator asked.
“No need for repairs, for the time being.” Xu Fan replied. The current state of this spiritual sword, according to the terms used in the game, it still has more than half its durability, there’s no need for repairs yet.
“l want to find someone to repair this sword.” The middle-aged cultivator said somewhat helplessly. The Refining Masters at the headquarters of the Elder Council used to have some free time.
Since the merge of the two realms, these Refining Masters’ orders have been lined up decades later. This made him, a Sword Cultivator who does not like to socialize, experience the harshness of the worldly life.
“Sure, it’ll be 500 million Spirit Stones if the senior wants me to repair this spiritual sword.” Xu Fan skillfully replied. Fetching a few times the price by relying on his own craftsmanship, this shouldn’t be considered excessive, should it?
“l can also help senior upgrade your Dao Artifact spiritual sword, increasing the power of the spiritual sword by 20%, for 5 billion Spirit Stones.” Xu Fan said with a smile.
“Can’t it be cheaper?” The middle-aged cultivator’s expression was quite flat, but there was a hint of embarrassment in his heart. To get this Dao Artifact spiritual sword, he had to put all his wealth on the line.
“How much does the senior think it should be?” Xu Fan asked. Has the once high-spirited senior turned into a different person?
“Would 50 million Spirit Stones be alright?” The middle-aged cultivator uttered a number that shocked Xu Fan.
“Senior, this…
“What Spirit Stones and all, l, junior, will repair and upgrade the senior’s sword for free, just because I made a friend like you.” Xu Fan initially wanted to mock him, but he held back.
“It’s so embarrassing.” The middle-aged cultivator showed a hint of surprise in his expression.
“Senior, how much did we agree on for the price of the Heavenly Patrol Satellites just now?” Xu Fan suddenly asked an unrelated question. “Didn’t we agree on 50 million Spirit Stones per piece?” The middle-aged cultivator said, not understanding why Xu Fan would suddenly ask this question.
“No, senior, you remember it wrong, it’s 60 million Spirit Stones each..”
