"This is outrageous! Let go of me! Let go!"
But Ji Jiuying heard the voice of a three-year-old child, and burst out laughing instantly. She loosened her grip, and the voluptuous body of the evil fire fell to the ground.
He lay there like a dead dog!
Evil Fire; Ah~ The mighty Lord Evil Fire was just thrown to the ground by this wretched woman, and his lifelong reputation is ruined!
"Also, alchemy?" Ji Jiuying said with a smile.
"Yes." Xie Huo answered reluctantly. There was nothing she could do; after all, she was the master of the Cloud Butterfly Dream.
"Why didn't you say so before?" Ji Jiuying asked through gritted teeth, her anger rising.
"Hey, hey, let go! Let go! You didn't reach level four of the Divine Control Technique before, so telling you won't help!" The evil fire struggled wildly in the air with its four claws.
That damn stupid woman is too presumptuous, daring to lay a hand on it.
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying released it, then touched her nose somewhat guiltily, "Oh~ I'm sorry!"
Enraged, Xie Huo turned his back to Ji Jiu Ying.
Ji Jiuying patted its head and then ignored the evil fire that was turning its back to her.
Just as Xie Huo had said, Ji Jiuying looked at the refining stone on the ground and fell into deep thought again.
Why does this Heavenly Punishment Manual only provide materials and not a refining furnace? I was just about to ask Evil Fire.
The Nine Nether Cauldron flew right in front of her, but Ji Jiuying slapped it aside, saying, "Little You, get out of the way and stop causing trouble."
"Little evil fire, why did it only give me materials and not a furnace?" Ji Jiuying poked the evil fire on the ground and asked in confusion. Did it mean I had to find a furnace myself?
"Hmph~ You stupid woman, you're really stupid!" After a while, she said angrily.
The Nine Nether Cauldron flew to Ji Jiuying once again, but was once again mercilessly swatted away by her! At this moment, the Nine Nether Cauldron wished it could speak!
······
Ji Jiuying stared at the evil fire in confusion. Just then, the Nine Nether Cauldron slowly grew larger and came to Ji Jiuying's front again!
Ji Jiuying; ······
Could it be that Little Youyou can also be used for weapon crafting?
Ji Jiuying awkwardly touched the Nine Nether Cauldron. "You mean, you can refine weapons?"
The Nine Nether Cauldron hummed in agreement.
Ji Jiuying suddenly realized, but it really wasn't her fault. After all, who would have thought that an alchemy furnace could also be used to forge weapons?
Without hesitation, Ji Jiuying condensed the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire as instructed in the book, heated the refining furnace, threw the materials into the furnace, and used her spiritual power to observe the situation inside the furnace.
Half an hour later, all the materials inside had melted. Ji Jiuying controlled the heat to reduce it and used her mental power to condense it into the shape of a dagger.
Xie Huo turned around and watched her forge the weapon at some point. Seeing that she was doing a pretty good job for her first time, he couldn't help but nod in approval.
Ji Jiuying used her mental power to condense the shape of the night into a form.
Half an hour later, Ji Jiuying used her mental power to slowly move it from the furnace to the outside.
At this moment, Xie Huo couldn't help but hold his breath, his eyes fixed on the alchemy furnace.
A finely crafted dagger lay quietly on the ground, its handle adorned with simple patterns. The dagger gleamed with a cold light, and one could even sense its sharpness.
Upon seeing this top-grade spiritual artifact, Xie Huo had to admit that Ji Jiuying was a genius at crafting artifacts.
On his first attempt at weapon crafting, he skipped both the low-grade and mid-grade levels.
But Ji Jiuying was still not satisfied, and continued to refine the stone materials next to her.
Ji Jiuying only came out of the space after noticing the strange movement outside the room.
It turned out that Ya Ya was knocking on Ji Jiu Ying's door.
Ji Jiuying opened it from the inside and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Princess, Steward Sun just asked me to tell you that the Emperor has issued an edict summoning you to the palace."
"Now?" Ji Jiuying asked.
"Yes, His Majesty even sent a carriage to pick up the Princess, and he's waiting at the gate," Ya Ya said respectfully.
The princess is so lucky! The emperor even sent a carriage to pick her up.
Ji Jiuying raised an eyebrow. This shrewd emperor was already testing her so quickly!
"Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes and come right away."
At the entrance of the Princess's residence, the one who came to deliver the imperial edict was none other than Eunuch Min, who served the Emperor.
Upon seeing Ji Jiuying emerge, Eunuch Min hurriedly stepped forward. Before he could speak, Ji Jiuying said, "I'm sorry to have kept Eunuch Min waiting!"
This made Eunuch Min feel more at ease. "Your Highness, you flatter me! The banquet is about to begin, we should set off quickly!"
Ji Jiuying readily agreed and pulled Qingling directly into the carriage.
While changing her clothes, she instructed Yingyue to bring Qingling back from the winery so that she could go to the palace with her.
"Eunuch Min, why has His Majesty suddenly decided to hold a banquet today?" Ji Jiuying asked.
"Princess, don't you know? Today is the day the Western Jin Kingdom and the Jialan Kingdom are visiting." Eunuch Min replied in confusion. How could the princess not know about such an important matter?
Ji Jiuying then realized that it wasn't because of her, but she really didn't know about the visits from the Western Jin Kingdom and the Jialan Kingdom.
But Ji Jiuying had a premonition that the simultaneous visits from Xi Jin and Jia Lan were likely to expose the matter of the dragon to her.
"Oh~ I've been in seclusion these past two days, so..." Ji Jiuying replied perfunctorily.
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Min understood.
At the palace gate, many court officials were already entering the palace with their children, including Ji Chenyuan with Ji Fengyan and Ji Rufeng.
The daughters of officials around Ji Fengyan all fawned over her.
"Yan'er, you look so beautiful in this dress today!"
"Feng Yan is one of the most beautiful women in the capital, so naturally she looks good in anything she wears."
"Of course, only a beauty like Yan'er is worthy of His Highness the Third Prince."
"Unlike some people, who failed to catch the Third Prince's eye even with their underhanded methods."
Upon hearing this, Ji Fengyan's smile froze, and then she forced out a very unnatural smile.
As luck would have it, these remarks were overheard by Liang Bingyan, who had just arrived at the palace gate.
"Hehe~ I think what Minister of Revenue Liu Sisi said is right. Some people just love to rely on underhanded means." Liang Bingyan chuckled sarcastically, her eyes filled with a meaningful look as she looked at Ji Fengyan.
Upon hearing this, a hint of panic flashed in Ji Fengyan's eyes, but she quickly concealed it.
Could it be that Liang Bingyan knows something? The thought was interrupted as soon as it came to mind. Impossible. If she knew, why didn't she say anything in front of the Emperor?
"Sisi, don't say that about Liang Meimei, she didn't mean it..."
"Sister Liang, Sisi is just being straightforward, please don't mind her." Ji Fengyan said with a gentle smile, her expression understanding, as if she truly couldn't see the sarcasm in Liang Bingyan's eyes.
"Yan'er, she's framed you like this, and you're still defending her. You're just too soft-hearted," Liu Sisi said indignantly.
Liang Bingyan watched their performance with a half-smile.
