Prodigiously Amazing Weaponsmith

Chapter-10

Huang Yue Li's refined eyebrows arched upwards, "You said you cannot? Little brat, you have already free-loaded for two days. You also absorbed so much profound qi too. I just ask you do a little bit of work and you are complaining you're tired?"

Suffering her glare, his voice turned soft.

"What freeloading, eating and sleeping for free. I only ate two meals here, and they were all thin rice gruel...."

"Oh, I know now. You lied saying you are some ancient beast, you definitely deceived me. You can't even spit out a mouthful of fire. You can only be a phoenix, or your phoenix race isn't some godly race at all...forget it, forget it. Go to the side. Seeing as you are still young, I won't fuss over your lies. But you must remember, lying to people is not a good thing to do. You must be a honest child...." Purposefully Huang Yue Li said this.

"Who said I can't release fire!"

When he was questioned, the arrogant little phoenix immediately jumped up!

'You can insult this little lord, but you could not insult this little lord's race!'

Jumping up, he breathed in and let out a large breath of air.

"Swoosh" it sounded out.

A bright golden flash appeared. That stream of golden coloured flame lit up the entire study brightly!

Huang Yue Li couldn't help herself but excitedly step forward.

"True Phoenix Flames! This is the legendary Phoenix True Flames!"

In the top ten rankings of flames, the True Phoenix Flames were ranked first. It was also said that it was only the God Realm that possessed this type of heaven defying flame. With it, you were able to greatly increase the armament's grade and efficiency.

This was a flame type that she never saw in her previous life. Yet today, she easily saw this flame enter her possession!

Smiling joyfully, Huang Yue Li rubbed the phoenix's head, "So clever. Your performance today was very good. So tomorrow this older sister will add meat to your meal!"

Looking at her for a while, the little phoenix suddenly with a "swish" shrunk, changing back into its fluffy feather ball shape.

Flabbergasted, Huang Yue Li stared at it.

Looks like what the little brat said was true. Just blowing out that ball of fire was really taxing on it. It wouldn't really affect its growth?

Feeling a bit guilty, she cupped the little phoenix in her hands and placed it on a soft surface.

"Creak——!"

Heading tilting to the side, the little phoenix fell asleep.

After rubbing its fluffy stomach briefly, Huang Yue Li returned to the furnace.

In her previous life, she was a grand ninth rank Armament Refiner in the Soaring Heavens Continent. Her techniques in the refining had reached the pinnacle.

But the current her didn't possess the slightest shred of profound qi or dual attributes in fire and metal. Not matter how high her skills, it would be hard to succeed.
But now she possessed the True Phoenix Flames, making it an entirely different story altogether.

Huang Yue Lie threw in all the materials she bought in the afternoon in one motion. Holding her breath in concentration, she then closed her eyes.

As the golden coloured phoenix flames burned around the furnace, it cast a disk of light on her face.

She sat there without moving for a long time before abruptly opening her eyes.

In the next moment she sent a palm towards the fire, then another one and another one...

In a blink of an eye, she had already sent out more than a hundred palm strikes!

The originally weak golden flames burst into a raging inferno. The materials instead the furnace also gradually began to merge together. At speed in which normal people could still see, they gradually molded into a distinct shape!

If a true refiner were to stand by her side, they would most definitely by stunned by the sight. 

Which Armament Master didn't anxiously and cautiously watch their flames while oh so carefully put the materials into the furnace, one by one? Only when the first item's impurities were eliminated, did they dare to add the second item. Just this process of eliminating impurities would take several hours.

This was even more stressful in the forming of the weapon's actual shape. Each and every palm strike could incur a different reaction. If you were to make even the slightest error, all your previous effort would have gone to naught while also wasting all those materials.

A more serious consequence would be an explosion.

This was especially concerning for fires of such intensities and sizes like the one she was using. If this fire were to explode, then it could raze the surrounding area to the ground.

Yet Huang Yue Li's current actions were the complete opposite of careful and cautious. She directly threw all her materials into the furnace in one go and afterwards, they condensed and solidified together.

In the time it took burn half a stick of incense, Huang Yue Li snorted out and stopped her hand movements.

The raging inferno gradually calmed and died down into a weak and small flame.

Wiping the sweat from her forehead, she opened up the lid.

Lying quietly at the bottom of the furnace lay three different armaments. These three were emitting a vibrant cyan glow. With a single glance, you were able to tell the immense energy contained within them.

Taking out the armaments, Huang Yue Li gave them a look and let out a sigh.

"Third Rank Armament.....isn't this a little too trashy! As expected. Without any profound qi, my dreams of refining top quality armaments is a bit too far fetched....looks like I need to quickly obtain those herbs to begin my cultivation. Otherwise I will not be able to refine higher quality armaments..."

If anyone else whereto be informed of her thoughts, they would spit out mouthfuls of blood on site.

For an ordinary refiner, the success rate was only around ten percent. Not only did she succeed in one try, she also refined three armaments.

Furthermore, these three armaments were all formed from low quality materials.

This type of monstrous result was too hard to imagine. Against all expectations she was this displeased with this result!

Putting the newly refined articles to the side, Huang Yue Li allowed herself to rest for a awhile and recovery her energy. Afterwards, she threw in another batch of materials and began refining again.

Diligently without much rest, she refined the entire night. By the time the morning rays had started to creep out, her finished goods were littered in small mountains around her.

Since she did not use profound qi to refine these, her consumption of physical strength was great. Without choice she was forced to return to her room. Falling onto her soft bed she immediately dozed off.
Sleeping beside her, the little phoenix was startled awake by her movements. He cried out as he awoke and flapped his wings. But very quickly, he returned to his world of dreams.

It was like that one person and one pet slept all the way to the afternoon of the next day.

...

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Huang Yue Li was awoken but a series of knocks at her door.

Rubbing her eyes, she sleepily asked, "What's the matter?"

"Third Young Miss, not good! Second Young Miss has brought a group of people over. She is adamant on meeting you. I have no way to obstructing her....."

In a single and smooth motion, Huang Yue Li pulled the door open, asking: "What's the situation?"

Anxiously Cai Wei informed: "Third Young Miss, hurry up and find a place to hide! Second Young Miss has already heard the rumors spread yesterday, that's why she came here. It's probably to vent in the place of Fourth Young Miss..."

It was at that moment following a 'bang' sound, were the back courtyard's gates kicked opened roughly by someone.

An old woman shouted out loudly: "Open up! Hurry and open up! Did everyone die? The Second Young Miss has graced her presence here. Why aren't you all rushing to pay your respects?"

Huang Yue Li revealed a mysterious smile.

"Turns out it was Second Elder Sister.....that's good. It saves me the trouble of going to find her myself."

Cai Wei urgently pressed: "Third Young Miss, what time is it now to joke! Please take this chance to escape through the back door. This servant will use herself to buy you some time! Otherwise, when Second Young Miss arrives, she will definitely attack! Second Young Miss is the daughter of the first wife of this household's master. Additionally, she is also a great genius in regards to cultivation. If she were to hit you, there would be no one to defend you!"

Huang Yue Li's thin lips hooked up: "Hit me? What she seeks, I won't let her obtain it! Go, let us go meet this Second Elder Sister of mine. Let us see just how mighty this South Yue Kingdom genius is!"

"Third Young Miss!"

Huang Yue Li steadily walked out.

On the other hand, Cai Wei was dashing and jumping to her in small steps. She was already worried beyond compare.

What was wrong with Third Young miss? Ever since the day she was carried home, all the things she did were unconventional. Not even mentioning the matter of her generous pill giving, now she actually dared to go meet with Second Young Miss!

Who didn't know that Bai Ruo Qi possessed fourth grade talent? She was only sixteen this year yet was already at the seventh level of the Qi Profound Realm. In the entire kingdom of South Yue, you could count the amount of people who possessed this type of talent on one hand.

It was because of her, did Bai Rou Li seem even trashier than normal.

As for Bai Rou Qi, she didn't allow a single bullying opportunity to slip by. When she didn't have anything to do, she would come to give a her portion of frigid irony and scorching sarcasm. Grabbing at every chance to torment her miserably.

Normally, Third Young Miss didn't have enough time to hide. While today, she took the initiative to seek her out? This time will be catastrophic. Who knows how wretched she will be after her torment!

Burning with anxiety Cai Wei but was unable to do any preventative measures.

The back courtyard's entrance doors were roughly smashed open by the old servant Bai Ruo Qi brought with her. With a high and mighty demeanor, she crossed over the and met with Bai Ruo Li face to face.

"Bai Ruo Li! Seems like you really didn't die, you cheap slut!"

Bai Ruo Qi's figure was outstanding, her five facial features displayed her feminine beauty. Her temperament was cold and arrogant. Adding these together and placing them with her fourth grade talent, she truly a "Ice Beauty" and the goddess to many noblemen sons.

It was only Bai Ruo Li who constantly constantly suffered her bullying knew of her true persona.

Under that mask of cold arrogance lay a wicked, harsh, vicious and merciless heart!

Huang Yue Li chuckled slightly: "Who is the cheap slut cursing at?"
"The cheap slut is cursing you...."

Watching the satisfied smile on Huang Yue Li's face, Bai Ruo Qi reacted and spat out: "After hanging yourself, you mouth sure has become clever. No wonder Fourth Sister was swindled by you yesterday! Saying that it was some ghost. Clearly it was you cheap girl executing your dirty methods!"

A face full of innocence Huang Yue Li replied: Second Sister, I'm afraid you are falsely accusing me! Yesterday when Fourth Sister came, she started shouting and running away. This gave me quite a fright and made me wonder if she had bumped into something?"

"Continue acting! If it you weren't pretending to be a ghost to frighten her, how could she possibly run home so deranged looking? While also running on the streets....bare! Losing the face of our Valiant Martial Manor!"

When she recalled the scene of a large crowd huddled around the entrance of Wu Wei Manor pointing and talking, Bai Ruo Qi's face turned green.

When this type of thing happened, not only did Bai Ruo Yan lose face, as her elder sister, her own chastity may be questioned!

She still hoped to marry into the Royal Family. How could she allow herself to mingle obtain such a bad reputation?

"What am I pretending?" Within Huang Yue Li's eyes she portrayed great innocence, if she needed more, she would display more innocence, "Fourth Sister is a grand fourth level Profound Qi Realm cultivator, what can I do to her?"

Suspiciously, Bai Ruo Qi thought for a bit.

Her Third Sister was a piece of trash, who possessed as much courage as a mouse. How would she possess the ability to make Fourth Sister suffer such a loss? Could there some unknown point she was uninformed of?
