The Attack Of The Wastrel Chapter 432

Gu Lingzhi did not know about Pan Luo's suspicions. Now, she was using her time wisely to create a weapon for Li Yi.

When making a weapon for her enemy, she could not give her best but she also had to make sure the quality was good enough to interest them.

This fine line caused Gu Lingzhi to be in a dilemma. All Spiritual Weapons better than high-grade Heaven level weapons were all called G.o.dly Weapons. This caused the grades of G.o.dly Weapons to be unevenly matched.

When Gu Lingzhi was making the weapon for Li Yi, it had to be powerful, but not too powerful in case one of her own people were to fight him in the future. Seeing how Gu Lingzhi had rejected his numerous proposals to hand out because of this, Rong Yuan could not bear it any longer and gave her a suggestion. He suggested that when making the weapon for Li Yi, she should make a weakness that only she knew. In this manner, even if they exchanged blows in the future, she would not lose out facing a weapon that she made.

Gu Lingzhi seemed to be enlightened as she knew how to make the weapon for Li Yi. She quickly rushed to thank Rong Yuan before starting her weapon crafting. This caused Rong Yuan, who was once again neglected to feel itchy. He swore to quickly increase his abilities and finish off Pan Luo so that nothing would distract Gu Lingzhi ever again.

The next day, everyone in the Gui Yuan Clan realised that Rong Yuan, who was usually following tightly behind Gu Lingzhi, suddenly made the decision to enter the Thousand Mountains Range alone to train.

Tianfeng Jin also wanted to follow along but was stopped by Nie Sang.

“The last time you went with Elder Rong to train in the Thousand Mountains Range, you left all the clan matters to me and the others. Now, no matter what, it should be your turn to stay back in the clan.”

With one sentence, he rendered Tianfeng Jin speechless. She could only stay back obediently as she watched Nie Sang bring a group of people and followed behind Rong Yuan into the Thousand Mountains Range happily. Her eyes shone with jealousy.

Sitting by the side, Zhuo Haotian was dumbfounded.

That was the Thousand Mountains Range!

He had never seen anyone so happy to enter the Thousand Mountains Range before. Looking at the people who were leaving, their faces were all lit up in excitement. It looked like they were going sightseeing and not entering the world's most dangerous place. They were so relaxed it was unbelievable.

“Are you really not going?” Seeing him stare intently at the group entering the Thousand Mountains Range to train, Xin Yi thought that he was regretting and asked once again.

“I won't go! I won't go!” Zhuo Haotian shook his head fervently.

He knew what he was capable of. The Thousand Mountains Range was so dangerous, did Xin Yi wish for him to die?

Xin Yi knew what he was thinking but decided not to expose him. He wanted to see Zhuo Haotian's remorseful look when Rong Yuan brought them back safely. Zhuo Haotian was always stealing Tianfeng Jin away from him!

Seeing through Xin Yi's intentions, Qin Xinran breathed out and lowered her voice. Leaning in next to Xin Yi, she whispered, “Don't you think throwing Zhuo Haotian into the Thousand Mountains Range is much better than him swaying in front of you and Xiao Jin?”

He did not think of that!

Xin Yi suddenly came to a realisation and looked at the group that was heading into the Thousand Mountains Range, but they had already gone too far and he could not even see their shadows anymore. He could not help but lower his chest in disappointment. He was really stupid. How could he miss out on this opportunity just because he was excited to see the look on Zhuo Haotian's face?!

Qin Xinran suppressed her laughter and added, “Don't sulk, even if Zhuo Haotian went to the Thousand Mountains Range, there is still me.”

She was a lightbulb too and no less annoying than Zhuo Haotian.

In between laughter, he could hear Hunting Cat call him.

Not sure if the impact was too great, or he had lost the hope of gaining back his freedom or knowing that with his spiritual energy sealed, he had no hope of escaping the Gui Yuan Clan, but Hunting Cat had been extremely honest recently. With the inability to train, he stayed with the Spirit Tribe children in the internal disciples district and trained his physical strength. Whenever the children were training, they would see him.

“Why are you here?” Qin Xinran wondered. The children were training at this time of the day and instead of following them, what was Hunting Cat doing here?

A slight unnatural look flashed across Hunting Cat's face as he glanced at Zhuo Haotian and Xin Yi. His voice hardened as he said, “I have something to tell you, please follow me.”

“What do you have to do with me? Qin Xinran shook her head, “I have to stay here to accompany Xiao Jin.”

As the clan leader, Tianfeng Jin had a lot of official matters to settle each day and she had to help Tianfeng Jin.

Hunting Cat looked at her and spat out, “It is regarding Pan Luo.”

Ever since he knew what kind of person Pan Luo was, Hunting Cat stopped referring to him as the Deity King.

As she heard Hunting Cat say that he wanted to tell them something about Pan Luo, Qin Xinran hesitated before straightening her face, “Let's go.”

She pulled Hunting Cat towards the door. Looking at their interlocked hands, for a moment Hunting Cat did not know what to do as his ears reddened.

After living for a few thousand years, this was the first time that he had been so close to a woman other than when he was trying to catch her. The small hand in his was soft. Yet, when in battle, it could produce such an intense power. Qin Xinran really was a person filled with contradiction yet she drew people's attention to her.

Feeling the soft hand in his, Hunting Cat forgot for a moment why he had looked for Qin Xinran. It was only after Qin Xinran asked him numerous times then did Hunting Cat finally regain his focus. The tips of his ears were fiery as he said, “Actually…it isn't anything urgent. I just want to tell you that Pan Luo's strength is currently the best in the Realm of the G.o.ds, but he is mediocre in other things. He is absolutely hopeless in Alchemy. If you all want to get close to him, you all can try using both Alchemy and Weapon Forging.”

Qin Xinran was slightly disappointed, “Oh, so this is what you wanted to say. We have already started approaching him using this. Lingzhi spent days creating weapons so as to get Pan Luo's attention. If there is nothing else, I am going back to help Xiao Jin.”

“Don't leave.” Hunting Cat subconsciously grabbed Qin Xinran's hand as he saw her turn to leave. When he realised what he did, he quickly dropped her hand as if he touched something scalding.

“This is not all that I wanted to say.” Hunting Cat cleared his throat, “Pan Luo has no talent in Alchemy and Weapon Forging and really appreciates people who are talented in this area. The Deity King's Palace has a huge supply of Alchemists and Weapon Forgers that are meant solely to serve Pan Luo. If you all can seize this opportunity, you might be able to fall into Pan Luo's good graces and get the opportunity to enter the Deity King's Palace.”

Qin Xinran's eyes lit up, “Really?”

“Of course, my life is now in your hands, how would I dare to lie to you?”

“As long as you know it.” Qin Xinran laughed bitterly. Her two canines shone under the rays of the sun causing Hunting Cat to become slightly dazed as he looked at her.

What was happening? All they did was hold hands. Why did Qin Xinran suddenly seem so different? Hunting Cat scolded himself internally but could not deny his attraction to Qin Xinran.

After he realised that the Ascension Members from the Tianyuan Continent were innocent and that he had almost handed Qin Xinran over to the Feixing Pavilion, he felt extremely guilty. Naturally, he would pay more attention to Qin Xinran over anyone else. After some time has pa.s.sed, the guilt slowly turned into warmth. After they held hands today, it made his slightly dark feelings suddenly see the light.

The reason why he thought Qin Xinran was getting prettier and why it was getting harder to take his gaze off her was because he had feelings for her…

As the days pa.s.sed, Qin Xinran told Gu Lingzhi what Hunting Cat had told her and Gu Lingzhi became more meticulous with the Spiritual Weapon that she was going to give Li Yi.

According to Li Yi, he had gold and fire Spiritual Roots and was used to using a blade.

Gu Lingzhi had created a curved blade that was delicate and thin, suitable for Li Yi's skinny figure. However, due to Gu Lingzhi's unique shaping abilities the final curved blade looked more like a centipede that was leaning to one side. The quality of the curved blade was good and it was capable of activating three extremely powerful arrays. As long as sufficient spiritual energy was directed in it, it would be able to produce three powerful attacks. The time needed to re-activate the attack was 12 hours.

When Gu Lingzhi tested the curved blade on the ground, she saw Xin Yi looked regretful.

“Do we really have to give this curved sword to Li Yi? In the future, if we go against him, won't we lose out?”

The three powerful arrays that this curved sword could produce were all extremely wide range attacks. No matter how he thought about it, giving the sword to Li Yi seemed like they were losing out.

“We won't.” Gu Lingzhi laughed, “How can I let us lose out?”

“Oh? Could it be that this sword has a weakness?” Nie Sang asked and took the curved sword over to inspect. He concentrated on the curved sword but could not find anything wrong with it.

Gu Lingzhi smiled mysteriously, “Unless critical, I will not expose it.”

If she had done something to it and it could be easily exposed, how would she be able to deceive Pan Luo?

Thereafter, Nie Sang followed Gu Lingzhi to the Tianbao Store in Juluan City.

It was no wonder that the Juluan City was one of the top ten biggest cities in the Realm of the G.o.ds. Just from the ground area, it was already three times bigger than the biggest city in the Tianyuan Continent. Much less the myriad of shops in it and the Martial Artists who were roaming the streets.

Be it quality or quant.i.ty, it was nothing that any city in the Tianyuan Continent could compare to.

Gu Lingzhi gasped slightly at the ma.s.siveness of the Juluan City before asking for directions to the Tianbao Store.

Telling the store keeper their intentions, the shopkeeper with a goatee narrowed his eyes and huffed through his nose, “You are the Black Thorn?”

“That's right.” Gu Lingzhi nodded slightly.

“Any proof?”

“Proof?” Gu Lingzhi raised her brows, “When the vice-manager came to see me, he did not need anything to confirm my ident.i.ty.”

The shopkeeper snorted, “No evidence? Then you can't prove your ident.i.ty. If that is the case, then forgive me for not tending to you. My vice-manager of the Tianbao Store is not someone that any random strays on the street can meet. Lady, if you can't prove your ident.i.ty then please return!”

He then signalled to an attendant by the side and gestured to get rid of them.

Gu Lingzhi looked at him coldly. If until now, she could not tell that he was purposely trying to make things difficult for her, then she would have wasted her life.

The shopkeeper was proud of himself as he lifted his head slightly, impatience s.h.i.+ning in his eyes.

She was just a dog that Zhuo Rong took in, did they really think they could bother the Tianbao Store?
