But at that moment, a scene that left Gu Changqing and Jiang Qingcheng dumbfounded appeared.

The precious sword shattered into several pieces again, returning to its original fragmented state.

Holy crap, what the hell is this? This precious sword can be operated like this? I've never seen anything like it before.

This treasured sword is incredibly powerful, no doubt about it, but how come it just turned the mountain back into its original shattered state after cutting it once?

Is it disposable, breaking after use and then having to be reassembled? If so, it's practically useless.

"System, come out quickly! What's wrong with my knife? It broke after just one use. Is it some kind of fake treasure?" Gu Changqing thought to himself and said to the system.

Just then, a mechanical voice sounded in my mind.

"Greenie is here. Host, you may not know this, but this treasured sword is indeed incredibly powerful. However, the premise is that you haven't properly restored it. It's not that everything will be fine once you put these parts back together. This is just one step. There is still an important process missing to fully restore it. Otherwise, it will break after just one use and won't be able to unleash its full power."

"Oh, I see. That makes things easy. You can just help me synthesize it, right?" Gu Changqing said casually.

"I'm sorry, host, Greenie's expertise lies in smelting and synthesis. This precious sword doesn't need synthesis, but rather repair and reinforcement, which requires a specialized craftsman. Greenie isn't good at that," the system quickly explained apologetically.

"Huh? You think this can stump your all-knowing system? I'm quite surprised. You should know where I can repair this precious sword to its original state and prevent it from breaking again," Gu Changqing said to Lü'er, somewhat speechless.

“Greenie knows this. There are many shops in the city you just visited. Just go to the biggest one. They forge thousands of weapons every day, forming their own unique style. Nothing can stump them. Go ahead and I guarantee you'll have a great time and leave satisfied,” Greenie said knowledgeably.

"Alright, I understand. You may leave now." After getting the answer he wanted, Gu Changqing immediately started to chase Lü'er away without saying another word.

"Host is so heartless to Greenie. Sigh, so sad. Greenie will take her leave now." The system said playfully, and then Greenie's voice disappeared from my mind and stopped making any noise.

Gu Changqing found it funny. Why had Lü'er become so lively and mischievous? Could it be that she was in love?

Gu Changqing shook his head, not wanting to think about it too much. With a wave of his hand, he put the parts into his pocket and prepared to return to the city.

"Qingcheng, let's go back to the city and find a professional swordsmith to take a look at this precious sword and see what's going on," Gu Changqing said seriously.

"Mm." Jiang Qingcheng nodded in agreement.

Then, with a thought, the two transformed into a bolt of lightning and flew towards the city.

In the blink of an eye, the two were safely back in the city.

The city was still the same as before. Although it wasn't particularly bustling or lively, everything was in good order and proceeding smoothly.

Gu Changqing then walked up to a vendor and tossed him a top-grade spirit stone. The vendor was overjoyed and asked with a beaming smile, "What can I do for you, sir?"

“Tell me, in your city, which craftsman has the best skills?” Gu Changqing asked directly and incisively.

"Sir, you've come to the right person. If we're talking about the best craftsmen, without a doubt it's the biggest shop in the city—Quanbaoge." The vendor, having accepted the spirit stones, spoke frankly and without reservation, putting in a great deal of effort.

"Where is Quanbaoge located, and how do I get there?" Jiang Qingcheng asked, seizing the opportunity.

"Just keep walking along this road until you reach the end, then turn right," the vendor replied with a smile, pointing in the direction.

After hearing this, Jiang Qingcheng and the other person went to the location he indicated.

In no time, the two found the place.

From afar, one can see the three powerful, gilded characters "Quanbaoge" on the plaque, gleaming in the sunlight and giving a high-end and grand impression.

This treasure pavilion is two stories high, and its exterior decoration is very stylish and unique, making it easy to notice at a glance.

Gu Changqing was overjoyed and, without saying a word, strode inside.

As soon as I reached the door, I saw that the room was densely packed with all kinds of weapons, parts, knives, spears, halberds, and so on. The variety was dazzling and astonishing, leaving me speechless and dumbfounded.

It's incredibly well-stocked, and the flow of customers here is enormous. Compared to the small vendors outside, this place is much more lively.

"Husband, this place is so prosperous. This is the first time I've ever seen such a complete crafting workshop. The craftsmen here must be top-notch." Jiang Qingcheng said with a hint of excitement in her eyes.

Gu Changqing nodded without saying anything, and the two continued walking inside. They had only gone a few steps when they heard people arguing incessantly.

Gu Changqing had no time to pay attention to any of that; all he wanted to do was restore the precious sword to its original condition as quickly as possible.

He took a few more steps forward and asked a man dressed in black beside him, "Fellow Daoist, do you know who the most skilled craftsman here is?"

"Fellow Daoist, you must be from out of town. You don't even know this? See that craftsman arguing with the customer? He's the most skilled craftsman here. As long as he takes action, he can forge any weapon perfectly. What's even more amazing is that his repair skills are also superb. He can perfectly repair weapons that are broken like shards of glass, and they will be exactly the same as before."

The man in black seemed to have been given a tap on his tongue, and began to talk incessantly.

"Did you see it, fellow Daoist? How can you be so sure? What if it's just all show and no substance?" Gu Changqing said with some doubt.

“Fellow Daoist, of course I’ve seen them. I come here every day, and I spend more time here than at my own home. To tell you the truth, I specialize in forging weapons for people. To put it bluntly, I’m an errand runner. There are always a lot of people here, and you have to queue. If you come late, you won’t get a turn at all. You can imagine how many people would come looking for me if I didn’t have some skills.” The man in black told the whole story in detail.

Gu Changqing thought to himself, "I thought the purchasing agent industry was something that only people on Earth started developing, but I didn't expect that such an industry already exists now."
