Xue Lianzi's gaze lingered on Meng Wan for a moment, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
She needs subordinates who are capable and know their place.
"You are a good talker, girl. Since you got this spirit stone by your own ability, just keep it. As for Xiao Youzhang, just kill him."
"Thank you, senior."
Meng Wan respectfully put away the spirit stone, her eyes full of gratitude.
"You've been at the foundry for over a month now, right? How are you adjusting?"
Xue Lianzi walked into the foundry and motioned Meng Wan to follow.
"It's good. I really like refining equipment."
Blood Lotus Seed's gaze swept through the foundry and finally stopped on an unfinished spiritual weapon.
She pointed casually and said, "You continue to refine this spiritual weapon."
Meng Wan's heart trembled, "Yes, senior."
Meng Wan walked to the forging table, but did not rush to work. Instead, she took a closer look at the spiritual weapon.
This is a low-grade spiritual weapon of the spirit whip type. The main material is the snake skin of the green water snake, and the auxiliary material is cloud-patterned iron.
After being soaked in a special potion, the already flexible snake skin will become even tougher. Then, using cloud-patterned iron and a unique refining method, a low-grade spirit whip can be obtained.
The snake skin part has been processed. All that needs to be done is to forge the cloud-patterned iron into a thin iron wire, and then combine the two together to refine this spiritual whip.
Seeing this, Meng Wan was certain that the test given by the blood lotus seeds was not difficult.
She picked up the cloud-patterned iron, put it into the furnace, and carefully felt the temperature inside the furnace.
As the temperature rises, the cloud iron gradually becomes soft and it is time to shape it.
Meng Wan took out the cloud pattern iron, placed it on the forging table, and swung the hammer to hit the cloud pattern iron evenly, causing it to gradually extend into a thin iron wire.
When she thought the length was about right, she took the prepared snake skin and wrapped it tightly around the cloud-patterned iron.
“Squeak…”
The high temperature caused some strange changes in the snake skin, making it fit perfectly with the cloud-patterned iron, as if they were one.
Meng Wan's movements were light and quick, and each wrapping was just right, ensuring a tight bond between the snake skin and the cloud-patterned iron without leaving any gaps.
Half a minute later, a flexible snake-skin whip appeared in her hands.
Meng Wan picked up the snake skin whip and handed it to Blood Lotus Seed respectfully.
"Senior, I have fulfilled your mission."
Blood Lotus Seed glanced at the snake-skin whip in Meng Wan's hand and nodded slightly.
"Although it's just the most common low-grade spiritual weapon, you were able to complete it in such a short time, and there were no mistakes during the refining process. It seems that the past month or so has not been wasted."
Facing the boss's praise, Meng Wan remained as humble as ever.
"Thank you for your kind words, Senior. I have been exceptionally promoted to the foundry. I feel deeply grateful and cannot repay you for your kindness. I can only diligently hone my forging skills in the hope that one day I can serve you."
Xue Lianzi nodded with satisfaction. "Among the new disciples I brought back from Jiuhua City last time, you are the most sensible. I'm going to start refining weapons tomorrow. Can you come to the weapon workshop and help me?"
"yes."
Meng Wan's mind moved. The weapon workshop was where the blood lotus seeds refined weapons.
Being able to observe the foundation-building cultivators refining weapons up close, or even participate in it yourself, is definitely a good opportunity to learn.
After watching Blood Lotus Seed leave, Meng Wan stepped out of the foundry and found that the disciples of the foundry had not left yet.
"Sister Meng, thank you so much for today."
"If it weren't for you, we would be the ones forced to hand over the spirit stones."
"The spiritual stones are a minor matter, but causing Senior to lose face is a major issue..."
Listening to everyone's flattery, Meng Wan smiled without saying anything.
Despite such a big incident, Zhang Lin, the person in charge of the foundry, was called away, contrary to his usual behavior, and he didn't even respond to any messages.
She realized something was wrong and guessed that Blood Lotus Seed might have paid attention to this place, so she risked offending Dan Juezi and forcibly killed the leading cultivator on the opposite side.
Otherwise, with the little tribute they gave, why would it be worth her taking such a big risk?
But now that the thing has been done, the benefits that should be reaped must naturally be reaped.
After they had almost finished talking, Meng Wan spoke in a kind tone.
"Since I have said that I will protect you, I will do my best.
But today, when I killed Xiao Youzhang, it seemed easy, but in fact, I had to use some trump cards to successfully eliminate him."
Everyone was a little surprised, but also felt it was reasonable.
Although Senior Sister Meng is very strong, Xiao Youzhang is a veteran Qi Refining cultivator who has been stuck at the ninth level of Qi Refining for several years.
If Senior Sister Meng wants to kill him, she must use some extraordinary means.
Facts have proved that Sister Meng’s approach was correct.
When the enemy is strong and we are weak, the only way to severely dampen the opponent's fighting spirit is to use our trump card and kill Xiao Youzhang with one blow!
Qingzhu's mind was working quickly. He rolled his eyes twice and said considerately.
"Senior Sister Meng used such a precious trump card to help us out. I don't have much, but I do have a moonstone, which is excellent forging material. Please accept it."
Others understood and vied with each other to offer benefits to Meng Wan.
"Sister, I have a bottle of spiritual spring water here. It tastes sweet. Please don't refuse it."
"Sister, I have a few pieces of Fire Cloud Stone here. Although they are not precious, they are a token of my appreciation."
Meng Wan accepted them one by one, "I appreciate everyone's kindness. If those people dare to cause trouble for you again in the future, just come to me, and I will definitely seek justice for you!"
After Meng Wan left, someone showed a look of pain.
"Although I saved the head fee, I still gave gifts to Senior Sister twice today, which adds up to more than a thousand spirit stones."
The others felt the same way. "Those people were originally coming for Senior Sister Meng. I feel like we've been innocently implicated..."
Qingzhu glanced coldly at the person who spoke, "Don't forget, in the Xuanyin Sect, weakness is the original sin! Moreover, aiding the enemy and being filial to your own senior sister are two completely different concepts!"
The others fell silent. Although they had lost some money, at least today's incident did not bring shame to Senior Xue Lianzi.
If you really have to pay a "head fee" to the opposing forces, you will definitely be severely punished!
Judging from this, the little gifts they gave to Senior Sister Meng were not much.
Meng Wan didn't care what other people were thinking. She had made a fortune today, and the cultivation resources she got were enough for her to cultivate to the eighth level of Qi Refining.
Xuanyin Sect is truly a blessed place.
After feeling this emotion again, Meng Wan was about to count the harvest when the wooden communication sign on her waist suddenly vibrated.
It’s Zhang Lin.
"Sister Meng, I was called to the Weapon Shop early this morning to help. I wanted to rush back after receiving your message, but Senior ordered me not to get involved. I didn't mean to ignore you."
Oh, I almost missed him.
After she came out of the refining room, she realized that something was wrong and sent a message to Zhang Lin, but she never received a reply.
Meng Wan picked up the wooden message board with a smile on her face, but her tone was cold.
"Using seniors as an excuse, who knows whether you are telling the truth or not?"
