âHehe! I think so too.â Fu Ran chuckled. Then, he looked at Zheng En and said apologetically, âThank you for refining the pill to treat my injuries.â
âYouâre welcome. Iâm just following Missâs instructions.â Zheng En did not dare to take credit. After all, Miss had asked him to do this. Otherwise, he might not have interfered.
âI still have to thank you. If you hadnât refined the pill, my injuries wouldnât have healed,â Fu Ran said gratefully. He knew his injuries very well. Ordinary alchemists couldnât refine pills that could treat his injuries. As for alchemists above the Alchemy Supremacy level, even if he could afford them, he wouldnât be able to prepare so many medicinal herbs.
There was no alchemist like Zheng En on the Divine Continent who did not need the injured to prepare the medicinal herbs to deliver the pills to him. He knew that he had borrowed the glory of his old friend. He was afraid that he would never be able to repay this favor in this lifetime.
âUh! Youâre too kind,â Zheng En said helplessly. How long would it take to thank him like this? Their own people did not like this.
âBy the way, whereâs the Cheapsake Old Ancestor?â Leng Ruoxue changed the topic.
âHe went to see His Excellency Mo Yan,â Fu Ran said. Alas! He knew that Leng Xiaoyu must have gone to see Mo Yan because of him again. In fact, after so many things, he no longer wanted to stay in the Artificer Association.
âWhat are your plans?â Leng Ruoxue asked calmly.
âI want to⦠leave Flame City and explore,â Fu Ran said after some thought.
âThen go! Itâs very boring to be trapped in one place all the time,â Leng Ruoxue encouraged.
âButâ¦â Fu Ran was in a difficult position. Even though he wanted to leave Flame City, he did not know how to speak to Leng Xiaoyu. After all, Leng Xiaoyu had already gone to look for Mo Yan for him.
âThe Old Ancestor wonât blame you. After all, this is your choice. He will understand.â Leng Ruoxue saw through him and comforted him.
âYou wonât blame him for anything?â Suddenly, Leng Xiaoyuâs voice interrupted them. He had just returned from outside and heard Little Xueâer saying that she wouldnât blame him.
âLet Fu Ran tell you himself!â Leng Ruoxue chuckled and then brought the others to another garden, leaving this place to the two of them.
When they arrived at the garden, Leng Ruoxue took out a recliner. Just as she lay down, she saw the freak pouting as he sat beside her. She couldnât help but be puzzled.
âWhatâs wrong!â Leng Ruoxue couldnât help asking curiously.
âXueâer, is silver-white hair very good?â the freak asked aggrievedly.
âUh!â Leng Ruoxue was speechless. Was the freak jealous again? Actually, she was just saying it casually. She didnât expect the freak to take it seriously.
âWho said that? I still like black,â Leng Ruoxue quickly coaxed.
âThatâs better. However, if you really like silver-white hair, Iâll find a way to make them into the color you like,â the freak said very seriously as he pulled his hair.
âNo need! Thereâs really no need.â Leng Ruoxue quickly stopped him. This guy was already very monstrous now. If he had silver hair, would he still want to live?!
âXueâer, you donât have to be polite with me,â the freak said with a naughty smile.
âIâm not polite. Thereâs really no need,â Leng Ruoxue said speechlessly. She knew that this freak did it on purpose.
âHaha! You said it!â The freak laughed in satisfaction. Then, he stretched out his long arm and hugged Xueâer.
âCough, cough!â Suddenly, two coughs sounded in their ears. The two of them looked up in unison and saw Leng Xiaoyu and Fu Ran standing not far away from them.
Leng Xiaoyuâs face was filled with mischief, while Fu Ranâs handsome face was filled with embarrassment.
âAre you done talking?â Leng Ruoxue was a little surprised. These two people talked quite quickly!
âYes, Little Xueâer, why arenât you paying attention to your influence when flirting in broad daylight? What if you lead children astray!â Leng Xiaoyu teased with a smile.
âAre there children here? Donât look, donât look!â Leng Ruoxue said angrily. Alas! Her Cheapsake Old Ancestor had learned bad things and knew how to tease her.
âHaha! Is Little Xueâer angry from embarrassment?â Leng Xiaoyu said happily.
âNo way. Oh right, tomorrow is the weapon refinement competition, right? Didnât Mo Yan tell you anything?â Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.
âIâm not participating in the competition. What can he tell me? However, he asked me to remind Old Man Zao to pay attention to a few opponents. Those people are very strong,â Leng Xiaoyu said worriedly. He had left the Divine Continent for too long and had not seen those people before. Therefore, he was not very clear about the true strength of those people, and he could not give Old Man Zao too good an opinion. Therefore, he could only remind Old Man Zao to improvise tomorrow.
âOh! Donât worry, Old Man Zao can handle it,â Leng Ruoxue said calmly. She was very confident in the Old Man Zaoâs strength and mental endurance, so she was not worried at all.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYes, Iâve already instructed him.â Leng Xiaoyu nodded.
The next day.
The once-in-a-century artificer competition officially began.
The artificer competition this time did not change much compared to the previous years. However, the number of matches increased from three to five. Moreover, there was an additional assessment of basic skills. However, the rules of the competition did not change. The highest score was also determined by victory.
The competition this time was divided into a total of five days. There would be a competition every day so that every artificer could have enough time to rest. Not only that, as a gathering to choose outstanding artificer, the competition also attracted the attention of the various families. Therefore, many families sent people to watch the battle.
Leng Ruoxue and the others walked into the competition venue under Leng Xiaoyuâs lead. Because of Leng Xiaoyu, their seats were relatively forward and happened to be in the middle, so their line of sight was very good.
âHaha, this seat is not bad!â Feng Da praised happily.
âWeâre all benefiting from our Cheapsake Old Ancestor Otherwise, we wouldnât be qualified to sit here,â Leng Ruoxue said with understanding. Even the eight great families probably werenât qualified to sit in such a good seat.
