"Do you like it?" Ye Liang asked with a smile.
Lu Ruoshui was taken aback for a moment, then immediately nodded firmly, excitedly saying in a loud voice, "Brother Ye, I love it! I really love it! What a beautiful magic weapon! It feels like I lived with it in my past life. Thank you so much, Brother Ye, for giving me such a wonderful magic weapon!"
Ye Liang hadn't expected that Lu Ruoshui would like this magic weapon so much, and he was immediately overjoyed.
However, despite his joy, he still had some words of advice to give to Lu Ruoshui, explaining clearly: "This magic weapon is also a Foundation Establishment realm magic weapon. Because of the haste, I don't have the right materials to refine a Golden Core realm magic weapon for you. For now, use this Demon-Slaying Pearl. Later, I will refine a higher realm magic weapon for you, okay?"
"No need, Brother Ye! I'm already very happy to have the Demon-Slaying Pearl. Really, thank you, Brother Ye!" Holding the magic treasure Ye Liang gave her, Lu Ruoshui almost burst into tears on the spot.
But then he suddenly remembered something and excitedly ran out.
"Ruoshui, Ruoshui, why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going?" The master stood up unexpectedly and called out to Lu Ruoshui, but received no answer.
However, Lu Ruoshui quickly ran back.
She ran back quickly and brought back a pile of True Immortal materials.
All of this was the result of her hard work outside these past few days, teaming up with people everywhere to fight the Beast King, risking her life.
"Brother Ye, I've given you all these materials. I know it's not enough, but now that I have the equipment you gave me, I'm much stronger. I can fight more and more powerful beast kings and bring you even more materials! Please believe me, Brother Ye, I will definitely work hard and won't slack off!"
Hearing the words of the Sword Pavilion's chosen successor is heartbreaking and deeply distressing.
Because she's such a sensible girl!
How can it not break one's heart!
Ye Liang immediately said softly to her, "Brother Ye believes in you. I'll accept all the materials you gave me. This is me being very friendly with you, but you can't be so polite to me from now on. This is two thousand gold coins, not much. Take it back to the master and use it to buy more rice and grain for all the disciples of the sect. Don't say no. Your Brother Ye is not short of money. I'm already being very friendly by not giving you twenty thousand gold coins. If I were being friendly, I should give you a mountain of gold."
Ye Liang knew that the Daoist sect lived a hard life, so why would he take the harvest that the Daoist sect used to purchase necessities such as rice for their daily needs?
Ye Liang's words effectively shut Lu Ruoshui down, leaving her with nothing to say.
Everything is now in the hands of the masters of the Hidden Sword Pavilion.
The master had no way to refuse, and in the end, he could only happily accept it.
The Taoist sect lived a frugal life, and with these two thousand taels of gold, it would be enough for the sect's expenses for more than half a year.
The master was naturally grateful for Ye Liang's generosity and felt even more admiration for Ye Liang's righteousness.
"Brother Ye, I'm going to put on the new equipment you made for me. I'm all dressed up, come over and show it to you!" Lu Ruoshui, the successor of the Sword Pavilion, was filled with anticipation, eager to wear the new equipment Ye Liang had made for her and show it to him.
Happiness is rather bland if it comes to one person alone, but if it comes to two people, it's more than just double the joy.
Ye Liang laughed and said, "Great! If Ruoshui wears the new equipment, it will truly make our humble abode shine, and she will be absolutely radiant!"
"Brother Ye is making fun of me!" Ye Liang's words made Lu Ruoshui blush. She looked flustered and embarrassed, and immediately turned and ran away.
The master of Cangzhen Sword Pavilion smiled broadly, not thinking at all that Ye Liang's words were frivolous, and left happily.
After seeing the master off, the senior sisters unknowingly came to Ye Liang's side.
They didn't speak, but quietly watched Ye Liang. However, their eyes still revealed their concern for Ye Liang, knowing that he had been working hard these past few days.
Ye Liang felt embarrassed by his senior sisters' concern and took the initiative to change the subject, saying, "Gugu, can you sing? Sing a song for me!"
When Ye Liang said this, he never really thought that Gugu could sing.
However, reality is often just that fantastical.
Before Ye Liang could finish speaking, Gu Gu had already started singing a song.
"Watching chess, the axe handle rots; chopping wood, the sound of logs echoes; strolling slowly by the valley entrance, clouds in the distance. Selling firewood and buying wine, laughing wildly, indulging in self-satisfaction. On the high autumn path, facing the moon, I rest my head on a pine root, and sleep until dawn."
A mountain song sung by a woodcutter in the mountains, with its unique and desolate tone, makes people in the city feel as if they have been transported to a carefree paradise of mountains, rivers, and fields.
Although they have access to mountains and rivers, they are immortal cultivators living in the martial world, inevitably subject to its conflicts. They are not woodcutters and rarely experience the carefree life that other people do.
In Gugu's singing, they can find a peace that they cannot find in the real world of martial arts.
After listening to the song, the lingering melody made Ye Liang exclaim, "Gugu's song has truly shown me what it means to have a lingering melody that lasts for three days. It seems that getting Gugu has been a real stroke of luck."
"I never would have guessed that this grumpy bird could sing. And sing so beautifully!" The junior sister found it all quite amazing.
It's already quite rare for a bird to talk, but it's even more amazing to sing, and sing so beautifully.
Second Senior Sister happily added, "That's perfect! With such a talkative and eloquent girl like Gugu accompanying Eldest Senior Sister, her days won't be as lonely as before."
"Coo coo, coo coo!" As soon as the coo hears someone mention Senior Sister, it will protect her and stick to her neck as if afraid that someone will take her away.
They're so persistent.
This was a spirit pet given to her by Ye Liang, so the senior sister naturally wouldn't get annoyed by Gu Gu's clinginess. Although she still didn't speak, she reached out and gently stroked Gu Gu's feathers. This stroke revealed the deep-seated tenderness hidden in the senior sister's heart.
Senior Sister doesn't like Gugu; she likes the Gugu that Ye Liang gave her. It was a gift from Ye Liang, and that's why Senior Sister feels so close to Gugu.
"Brother Ye!"
At this moment, a cry of "Brother Ye" drew everyone's attention to the courtyard gate.
Fresh and elegant!
Youth is boundless!
Dazzlingly charming!
This is Lu Ruoshui, who has changed into new clothes and equipment, and everything has become different, a completely new Lu Ruoshui!
Everyone was stunned, except for Ye Liang, who was simply happy and said with pure admiration, "So beautiful. Now, this is the aura of the chosen successor of the Hidden Truth Sword Pavilion, the Daoist sect of the world!"
Our young master is not a man who has never seen the world. He becomes stunned and drools when he sees a stunningly beautiful woman.
His gaze was one of pure admiration, appreciating the exquisite masterpiece created by this naturally beautiful woman.
Ye Liang's pure appreciation of beauty surpassed that of most of the so-called promising young heroes in the martial arts world.
Therefore, it's no wonder that the masters of the Sword Pavilion trusted Ye Liang's character so much and were comfortable with him befriending their Sword Pavilion's chosen successor!
