Chapter 767: Chapter 327: World Sealing Saber (Subscription Request)

Chu Xisheng having heard this, felt relieved.

This Thousand Leaves Fairy, whose reputation resounded throughout Jianghu, was not merely due to her beauty.

It was because she was proficient in the art of alchemy and medicine, reportedly mastering the properties of a thousand medicinal leaves, able to freely combine them to concoct various medicines.

To be invited by the Divine Pill Institute of Formless Divine Sect to perform alchemy demonstrated how renowned and talented this woman was.

The alchemical skills of the Thousand Leaves Fairy had caught the eye of the Great Elder of the Divine Pill Institute.

Chu Xisheng, with his hands clasped behind his back, scrutinized the three people, "Then the three of you, what are you arguing about?"

The expression of the Thousand Leaves Fairy turned pensive upon hearing this, her gaze shifting evasively elsewhere.

The middle-aged handsome man slightly furrowed his brow.

A fourth-grade master and a widely acclaimed alchemist, he had some difficulty accepting Chu Xisheng’s condescending tone.

However, the middle-aged man soon suppressed his thoughts.

Not only did the Formless Divine Sect stand behind the other party, but a God supported him.

Not to mention his combat ability was exceedingly high, unparalleled by most fifth-grade masters.

His expression still deferential, he replied, "Reporting to the Holy Transmission, this is because the Thousand Leaves Fairy had previously placed an order for a pair of sabers and swords with Brother Li. However, when the two of us came to collect them at the agreed time, Brother Li refused to hand them over, leading to a dispute."

The Strange Blade Demon Craftsman Li Tiangong’s eyes reddened upon hearing this; clenching his fist and grinding his teeth, he was filled with indignation.

Two months ago, the Thousand Leaves Fairy commissioned him to forge a pair of sabers and swords.

It wasn’t the kind of ’Wind Blade and Electric Sword’ or ’Wind and Thunder Poles’ that other sword and saber wielders used, but a pair of Yang Saber and Yin Sword more suited for married couples.

At the time, Li Tiangong was overjoyed, thinking about his expertise in weaponry.

Thus he not only crafted them meticulously but also borrowed a great deal of money to lavish workmanship on this pair of Yin Yang sabers and swords.

The weapons he created were, naturally, the stronger the better.

Only when the forging was almost done did he learn that the Thousand Leaves Fairy and this scoundrel named ’Poisonous Blade Wanderer’ had become inseparable, appearing everywhere together.

Li Tiangong naturally refused to hand over this pair of sabers and swords, containing his efforts, to complete this couple—dog man and witch!

The Thousand Leaves Fairy, with her pure heart and sharp mind, was excessively naive in matters of affection, undoubtedly deceived by this scoundrel.

Chu Xisheng frowned upon hearing this and turned towards Li Tiangong, "If you promised someone else, why won’t you deliver? Is it that you delayed the work period, haven’t finished forging them, or is there another reason?"

This matter was indeed Li Tiangong’s fault.

Having accepted the order, he ought to abide by his promise.

Li Tiangong hung his head, teeth clenched, and remained silent.

Chu Xisheng, in reality, was reluctant to meddle in these three’s affairs.

However, he still relied on Li Tiangong to put forth his best effort and refine a pair of Golden Jade Marriage Sabers for him.

After a brief consideration, he knew Li Tiangong, this lovestruck fool, must have made a loss-making deal for love’s sake, wanting to back out upon seeing the couple together at delivery.

Chu Xisheng shook his head and looked at the Thousand Leaves Fairy, "It seems this fellow won’t be able to deliver the goods. Let’s cancel this order and have this fellow compensate you with the deposit. According to the rules of Jianghu, I will have him pay you an additional twenty percent of the deposit."

The Poisonous Blade Wanderer was somewhat unwilling; he had waited a whole two months for these sabers and swords.

However, just as he was about to speak, the Thousand Leaves Fairy tugged at his sleeve.

The Thousand Leaves Fairy felt somewhat guilty; this time she truly had no intention of further exploiting Li Tiangong.

After all, her romance was settled, having caught the Golden Turtle, it wasn’t proper to entangle with other men anymore.

It was merely due to the excellent craftsmanship of the sabers and swords Li Tiangong made for her in the past that she habitually approached him for custom orders.

It must have been her tone and demeanor at the time that led this fool to misunderstand—

Chu Xisheng was indifferent to the thoughts of these two.

He wasn’t consulting with them, but instructing.

Chu Xisheng then looked again at Li Tiangong, his eyes containing a warning, "You promised me in the past that as long as the materials are sufficient, you would help me upgrade the Golden Jade Marriage Sabers to fourth-grade for free? I have now brought the materials. You’d better be attentive, as I hope to receive my new sabers in the shortest time possible."

As Chu Xisheng spoke, Zhoou Liangchen took a large bag of materials from Little Xuanwu Turtle’s back and placed it in front of Li Tiangong.

Seeing this, Little Xuanwu ’gurgle’ made a sound, somewhat disheartened as it tucked its head back into its shell.

Among those materials were two sets of his mother’s eyes.

Little Xuanwu looked self-pityingly at a piece of purple-gold scale hidden inside its shell.

It was the only relic left to him by his mother.

Li Tiangong’s mood improved slightly, though he was still heartbroken, but at least he had preserved his money.

The pair of sabers and swords ordered by the Thousand Leaves Fairy, as long as it was sold, could still earn a decent amount, and paying off debts wouldn’t be an issue.

He forced a smile and said, "Rest assured, Holy Transmission! I will do my utmost, and at most within twenty days, I can refine this pair of sabers."

Chu Xisheng nodded slightly, seemingly satisfied, "Furthermore, after the Sect promoted me to ’Heaven Punishment Holy Transmission’, they also awarded me two Daoist positions. Li Tiangong, your forging skills are acceptable, and your sword skills passable, I am considering recruiting you as my Daoist. What do you think?"

Li Tiangong was taken aback upon hearing this; he hadn’t expected Chu Xisheng to recruit him as a Daoist.

He immediately felt tempted.

Being a Daoist for a ’Holy Transmission’ disciple of Formless Divine Sect was akin to having the status of an Inner Sect Disciple.

If Chu Xisheng were to be promoted to elder in the future, he could even enjoy the benefits of a True Inheritor.
