Chapter 1310 Genius and Double System 11
Wen Nanfeng was punished with three months of reflection because the sect's Heavenly Vault Secret Realm would open in three months. Even if Ji Wujiu wanted to discipline his disciple, he wouldn't let him miss such an opportunity. Otherwise, given Wen Nanfeng's previous attitude, he wouldn't have been punished with just three months.
Azhen didn't care much about these things. It was already quite good to have a master who could distinguish right from wrong.
She could handle the minor friction with Wen Nanfeng herself; there was no need for Ji Wujiu to intervene.
In the days that followed, Lin Ya remained relatively quiet. Perhaps Azhen's warning had taken effect, as the incident of Wen Nanfeng being punished to reflect on his mistakes at the Cliff of Repentance did not cause much of a stir.
Since Azhen didn't get a spot to enter the Heavenly Vault Secret Realm, she naturally didn't plan to wait three months before setting off for training. She didn't make many changes, intending to depart at the same time as the original client, taking all the opportunities the client could obtain. Whether she would encounter anything else depended on fate, since she didn't really rely on these things to improve her cultivation.
Before setting off, Azhen went to Lianhuo Peak.
The reason was that two months ago, the client took some good materials and asked the weapon refiners at Lianhuo Peak to help her forge a spiritual weapon. Some of those materials were obtained through her own training, while others were given to her by her master, Ji Wujiu.
One of the materials inside was so special that it caught the attention of the peak master of Refining Fire Peak, who decided to forge the magical weapon himself. Just yesterday, a servant disciple from Refining Fire Peak came to report that the magical weapon had been forged and that she could pick it up from Refining Fire Peak when she had some free time.
The peak master of Refining Fire Peak is named Mo Wuchen. Despite being the master of a peak, he is actually quite young. It is said that he entered the sect in the same batch as Wen Nanfeng. Due to his exceptional talent in weapon refining, he was taken in as a disciple by the former peak master of Refining Fire Peak, who was about to ascend to immortality at the time. Ten years after taking Mo Wuchen in as a disciple, the former peak master of Refining Fire Peak ascended to immortality.
At that time, Mo Wuchen's weapon-refining skills had already surpassed his master's, so when he finally took the position of peak master, no one in the sect objected; in fact, they were quite pleased. No cultivator wouldn't want to befriend such a talented weapon refiner, and naturally, no one would want to offend him.
"Senior Sister Yun, are you here to retrieve a spiritual artifact?" As soon as she arrived at Refining Fire Peak, a menial disciple came up to greet her with an extremely flattering attitude.
Azhen nodded gently: "Is Peak Master Mo available now?"
"That's convenient." The handyman hesitated for a moment before saying this, which made A-Zhu sense something was amiss.
But Azhen didn't ask any more questions. She figured she'd find out what was going on once she went inside.
Led to the main hall by a servant disciple, Azhen finally understood what was going on when she saw the people inside; it turned out that Lin Ya was there.
The client didn't actually pay much attention to Lin Ya, rarely inquiring about what she was doing today or tomorrow. If there was anything they cared about, it was probably how Lin Ya had cultivated so quickly.
However, everyone in the sect knew about Lin Ya's cultivation method. Unlike others, she didn't need to undergo trials or go into seclusion. She could simply do what she wanted, and her cultivation would automatically increase in time, making her the envy of everyone. To this day, even the sect's experts couldn't figure out how she developed this talent.
At least for now, there seem to be no side effects, and everything is moving in a positive direction.
Azhen glanced at Lin Ya, who was sitting in a certain spot in the main hall, sipping tea with a hint of boredom, her gaze fixed in another direction, as if waiting for someone.
Suddenly noticing someone else approaching, she turned around and saw Azhen stepping into the main hall. She paused for a moment, then quickly stood up and greeted Azhen, "Senior Sister Yun, what brings you here?"
"I've come to retrieve a magical artifact," Azhen replied. "And you? What are you doing here?"
She didn't really understand Lin Ya's purpose in wandering around the sect all day. In short, it seemed that Lin Ya didn't have any particular purpose; she just liked to wander around and wanted to be noticed. But today, on Refining Fire Peak, Lin Ya seemed a little different.
"She looks even better than that day; she's dressed up meticulously from head to toe." At this point, 997 chimed in, "Her makeup is much more vibrant; someone she likes must be here."
Azhen raised an eyebrow: "Since she already has someone she likes, why is she bothering so many other people? Is it just infatuation?"
Lin Ya clearly didn't like Wen Nanfeng and Yun Xuan, yet she constantly sent them special signals, allowing them into her circle. At first, she thought Lin Ya was just the kind of person who enjoyed seeing men fall for her and liked to show off her charm in front of the opposite sex; she never expected that Lin Ya actually had someone she liked.
The client didn't remember these things clearly, since the client was focused on cultivation and didn't have much interaction with Lin Ya, nor did they care much about her messy affairs.
"I came to see Peak Master Mo, but he seems to be quite busy and I haven't been able to see him." Lin Ya said this quite frankly. "I have some good materials and would like to ask Peak Master Mo to help me forge them into spiritual artifacts."
"Hmm." Azhen responded indifferently, not very interested. Since Mo Wuchen was still busy, she would wait for the time being.
She found a seat and sat down. The servant disciple quickly served her tea and told her to wait a moment before leaving the main hall, presumably to report some news.
While Azhen was drinking tea, she was also observing Lin Ya.
She saw the determination and a hint of frustration in the other person's eyes.
It seems that Lin Ya's goal this time is Mo Wuchen, but judging from the other party's behavior, it doesn't seem like she genuinely likes Mo Wuchen; rather, it seems like she has encountered some kind of challenge.
Recalling the other party's performance at the Sword's Edge last time, Azhen had some understanding.
Perhaps Lin Ya doesn't really have anyone she likes right now. The people she's set her sights on, if they don't "submit" to her, are seen as provoking her, and she just feels unwilling to accept it.
Azhen had seen many such things before, so it wasn't hard to guess.
[Yun Zhen came to retrieve the spiritual artifact, probably planning to go on a training expedition. It's good that she's working hard in her cultivation; that way, I can progress faster. Sometimes I'm quite glad I'm bound to Yun Zhen; otherwise, someone else might not have her unwavering resolve, and it would probably affect my cultivation.]
After saying this, Lin Ya suddenly became angry: "I refuse to believe that Mo Wuchen is truly a blockhead. Aside from Ji Wujiu of Jianfeng, he's the only one who's never given me a kind look. As for Ji Wujiu, he's a top expert in his sect; I'm not strong enough to provoke him right now."
[This Mo Wuchen is indeed formidable, with considerable strength, but he has only been cultivating for a short time, so the gap between him and me isn't that large. As long as Yun Zhen cultivates diligently for a few more years, it's only a matter of time before I surpass Mo Wuchen.]
"Since the host is interested in Mo Wuchen, and he's so arrogant, why not just use the last spot to bind him and obtain his weapon-refining ability? That would naturally draw his attention, and he might even have to obediently come to the host for guidance in the future," the system said.
[The last spot is too precious; using it solely to exchange for weapon-refining ability isn't worthwhile. And who knows when we'll get more bound spots? I don't plan to use it like that.] Lin Ya thought to herself. [So what if I've run into a blockhead? Spending some time playing with him is worthwhile, otherwise it's quite boring.] (End of Chapter)
