Liu Tian said this, motioning Liu Yi to present the reward.
Jiang Qiong and others looked at the miserable appearance of the Liu family's master and servants, and the anger in their hearts gradually subsided.
But they also understand that in this world of cultivating immortals, the rule of the jungle will always exist, and only by constantly improving their own strength can they truly protect their own rights and interests.
Jiang Qiong took the reward steadily, and his sharp eyes slowly swept across the faces of Liu Tian and Liu Yi.
The two of them had looks of shame on their faces, with their heads lowered, not daring to look at Jiang Qiong.
Although Jiang Qiong still felt dissatisfied, he knew that he should forgive others when he could, and he did not want to dwell on the matter too much.
His expression was stern, and he said in a deep voice: "I hope the Liu family can learn from this incident and never do such treacherous things again in the future."
Upon hearing this, Liu Tian nodded hurriedly, the fat on his face trembling. He hurried away with Liu Yi, his back looking a little embarrassed.
After this battle, Jiang Qiong and others became famous in the county city. The business of Lingxiao Weapon Foundry Pavilion became more and more prosperous. Every morning, as soon as the door of the Weapon Foundry Pavilion was opened, practitioners poured in like a tide.
They may come here to buy the magic tools they like, their eyes wandering among the dazzling array of weapons and magic tools, full of desire;
Or they would gather around the foundry master to consult about advanced casting techniques and humbly seek advice.
In a short period of time, the Foundry Pavilion made a fortune and accumulated a large amount of spirit stones, filling up the warehouse.
Everything went smoothly and the sun was shining brightly that day.
Jiang Qiong looked at Nan Fengxue and Lang Nana who had been busy for a long time, and felt relieved. She suggested:
"Everyone has been working really hard these days. Now that we have more money, let's go to the best restaurant in the county town to taste the spiritual food and relax our tense nerves."
When Nan Fengxue heard this, a bright smile broke out on her face and she readily agreed; Lang Nana was so excited that she jumped up and clapped her hands.
The three of them came to the most famous "Lingyun Tower" in the county town.
The restaurant is located in a prosperous area. Its appearance is magnificent, with flying eaves and brackets, layer upon layer, just like a roc spreading its wings to fly.
The exquisite patterns among the carved beams and painted buildings tell the ancient legends of cultivating immortals.
The vermilion gate is tall and heavy, exuding a noble and solemn atmosphere, and the copper nails on the door sparkle with a cold metallic luster.
As you step inside, you will find the interior decoration is extremely luxurious. The walls are inlaid with sparkling spirit crystals. The light emitted by the spirit crystals interweave with each other, illuminating the hall as bright as day, and every corner is clearly visible.
The tables and chairs are all made of rare spiritual woods. These spiritual woods grow in places with rich spiritual energy. After years of baptism, they exude a faint, refreshing wood fragrance, as if silently telling their extraordinary origins.
The waiter at the restaurant had sharp eyes and spotted Jiang Qiong and the other two from a distance. His face was immediately filled with a warm smile. He walked quickly over to them and respectfully led them to a private seat by the window.
The private seats have an excellent view, and through the windows, you can have a panoramic view of the bustling street scenes of the county town.
Jiang Qiong took the menu handed over by the waiter, and saw that it was filled with all kinds of rare and spiritual foods. The dishes were rich and varied, dazzling.
There is the "Lingshen Yulu Soup" carefully stewed with thousand-year-old Lingshen as the ingredient. Lingshen absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and has been nurtured for thousands of years. It is a nourishing holy product;
There is the "Spiritual Valley Phoenix Breast" which is made from the meat of spiritual birds and spiritual valleys. The spiritual birds grow and shuttle between the spiritual valleys, and their meat is delicious and contains powerful spiritual power.
There is also the exquisite dessert "Lingyun Fairy Fruit Pastry" made with spiritual fruit as raw material. The spiritual fruit is picked from the mysterious spiritual garden and is full of fruity fragrance. After being made into dessert, it has a unique flavor.
Jiang Qiong carefully considered and ordered a few signature dishes. Soon, the spiritual food was served.
The Lingshen Yulu Soup is served in a warm jade bowl. The soup is light golden, clear and transparent, like a pool of golden spring water. A few Lingshen slices as thin as cicada wings float in it, like lively fairies playing in the spring water, exuding an appetizing aroma.
Jiang Qiong gently scooped a spoonful and put it into his mouth. The soup was delicious and mellow. As soon as it touched the tip of his tongue, a strong spiritual power instantly spread throughout his body, nourishing his meridians like a trickle, making him feel refreshed and all his fatigue was swept away.
Linggu Phoenix Breast is golden in color, with a crispy outer skin and an attractive sheen of oil, and the meat inside is tender and juicy.
Take a bite, and the fresh aroma of the spiritual bird meat and the refreshing fragrance of the spiritual valley blend together, creating wonderful sparks in the mouth. Spiritual power also bursts out at the tip of the tongue, making people intoxicated and unable to stop, eating one bite after another.
Lingyun Fairy Fruit Pastry is exquisitely shaped, resembling a blooming flower, with lifelike petals, as if you can smell a faint floral fragrance.
It melts in your mouth, overflowing with fruity aroma and a hint of spiritual power, lingering between your teeth, immersing you in the double enjoyment of sweetness and spiritual nourishment.
Just as they were enjoying the food, a beggar walked into the restaurant.
The beggar was dressed in rags, his clothes were full of patches and stains, and gave off a sour smell.
His hair was as messy as weeds and his face was covered in dirt, making it almost impossible to recognize his original features.
He walked in timidly, his eyes filled with extreme desire. He stared at the delicious food on the diners' tables, his throat rolling and he swallowed.
The diners around him all frowned with disgust, some even cursed in a low voice, urging the waiter to send him away quickly, fearing that the beggar's appearance would ruin their mood for dining.
Seeing this, Jiang Qiong's heart was moved slightly, and a surge of pity surged up. He said to the waiter: "Give this brother a portion of the spiritual food on our table as well."
The waiter looked embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and whispered:
"Sir, this...he is a beggar. I am afraid that he will dirty your place and affect your mood for dining."
Jiang Qiong waved her hand, her expression gentle but revealing an unquestionable firmness:
"It's okay. We are all cultivators. We should all be equal. Don't judge people by their appearance."
Nan Fengxue and Lang Nana also nodded in agreement.
The waiter had no choice but to turn around and bring the beggar a spiritual meal.
The beggar's eyes were full of gratitude, and his eye sockets instantly became moist. His hands were trembling as he picked up the bowl and chopsticks and began to wolf down the food impatiently. His movements were eager and a little clumsy. It was obvious that he had been hungry for a long time and was already starving.
Jiang Qiong smiled and said, "Brother, eat slowly. No one is going to snatch the food from you. There is enough food here for you to enjoy."
The beggar raised his head, tears in his eyes, and said incoherently:
"Thank you all for your kindness. I haven't eaten such delicious food for many days. I am so lucky to have met a noble person today."
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the restaurant. A group of people in red robes walked in in unison. The robes were embroidered with flame patterns, which fluttered in the wind like burning flames.
When the leading disciple saw the beggar, his face changed instantly. He looked horrified and awed. He hurried forward and knelt down to salute: "Greetings, Sect Master!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiong and the others were surprised and looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes.
This beggar-looking man in front of me could actually be the leader of a sect?
This is unbelievable.
The beggar smiled, the dirt on his face cracking slightly as the smile unfolded. He patted the leading disciple on the shoulder and motioned him to stand up.
He said slowly: "I just like to act spontaneously. I had a sudden urge these few days to experience the life of the city, but I didn't expect to cause trouble for you."
After saying this, he looked at Jiang Qiong and the others, his eyes full of gentleness and gratitude, and said:
"My dear friends, thank you for your kindness today. It is rare to find cultivators like you who do not judge people by appearance and have compassion in their hearts in this world."
After saying that, he took out three tokens from his bosom. The tokens were dark red in color and engraved with lifelike flame patterns. They gave off a fiery breath, as if they would burn at any time.
He handed them to Jiang Qiong, Nan Fengxue, and Lang Nana respectively, "This is the token of my Flame Sect. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can bring the token to the Flame Sect to find me, and I will definitely help you with all my strength."
Jiang Qiong took the token and felt the blazing heat coming from it. A warm current surged in his heart. He bowed and said, "Thank you, senior. But how can we be so kind to you?"
The beggar smiled and waved his hands, with a look of relief on his face:
"For a cultivator, it is important to have good intentions in your heart. You did not despise me because of my poverty, and even invited me to eat spiritual food. This kindness is precious and deserves my courtesy."
As everyone was talking, the disciples of the Flame Sect had already prepared the funeral sedan.
The funeral sedan is made of precious materials and is exquisitely decorated. The body of the sedan is engraved with runes and exudes a mysterious glow.
The beggar got on the hearse and slowly left surrounded by the crowd.
Jiang Qiong and others looked at their departing backs, their hearts unable to calm down for a long time. Today's adventure seemed to have added a touch of brilliant color to their path to immortality.
Returning to the Foundry Pavilion, Jiang Qiong carefully put away the token, placed it in his storage bag, and said solemnly:
"The leader of the Flame Sect is so low-key, he must be a great man. What happened today can be considered a strange fate. Maybe this token can play a big role in the future."
Nan Fengxue nodded and said, "Yes, it seems that there are surprises hidden everywhere in the world of immortal cultivation. Who would have thought that a seemingly ordinary beggar is actually the leader of a sect."
Lang Nana played with the token curiously, with a gleam of curiosity in her eyes, and said, "I wonder what use this token will be for in the future. I really want to see it soon."
As time passed, the business of Lingxiao Casting Pavilion became more and more prosperous. Jiang Qiong and others continued to improve the casting process. They studied day and night, trying to combine various rare materials with unique spells, and launched more novel magic tools.
In the county city, Lingxiao Weapon Foundry Pavilion has already established a firm foothold and has become the first choice for many cultivators to buy magic tools. One day, the sun shone through the clouds and shone on the roof of the Weapon Foundry Pavilion, reflecting a golden glow.
A mysterious man in black robe walked into the Foundry Pavilion with steady steps. He was tall and his black robe fluttered in the wind, like a dark cloud, casting his face in shadow.
His eyes swept across the magical instruments in the store, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, and finally fell on Jiang Qiong.
"Are you the person in charge of Lingxiao Weapon Foundry?"
The black-robed man's voice was low, as if it came from the Netherworld, with a hint of chill.
Jiang Qiong nodded slightly, looking alert but polite, and said, "That's right, what do you need?"
The black-robed man sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in his laughter, and said, "I heard that your Weapon Foundry Pavilion is very powerful. I have a special material here. If you can forge it into a peerless sword, you will be rewarded handsomely."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand, and a piece of black ore emitting a strange light appeared in his palm.
The surface of the ore is uneven and the lines are twisted, as if it contains endless secrets and powerful and strange power.
Jiang Qiong took the ore and just as he touched it, he felt a powerful force rushing towards him. He couldn't help but frown, secretly marveling at the extraordinary nature of this ore.
"This material is quite peculiar and extremely difficult to cast. I wonder what specific requirements you have?"
The man in black robe described the style and function of the sword in detail. His description was extremely meticulous, leaving out nothing from the length and width of the blade, the material and decoration of the hilt, and the special magical effects that the sword needed to have.
Jiang Qiong thought to himself that this was indeed a huge challenge, but if successful, it would greatly enhance the reputation of the Weapon Foundry Pavilion and take Lingxiao Weapon Foundry Pavilion's status in the world of immortal cultivation to a higher level.
After discussing with Nan Fengxue and Lang Nana, the three of them decided to accept the order with a firm look in their eyes. In the following days, Jiang Qiong and others devoted themselves to the casting of the sword.
They plunged into the library of the Foundry Pavilion and consulted various ancient books to find records and casting methods about this special ore. They repeatedly studied the characteristics of the ore and tried different casting methods.
However, the ore was extremely tricky and several accidents occurred during the casting process.
Sometimes the temperature is difficult to control and the scorching flames cannot completely melt the ore. Sometimes cracks appear in the ore, like fragile glass that may shatter at any time.
Every failure made them feel frustrated, but they did not give up. Instead, it stimulated their fighting spirit.
Just when they were at a loss, Jiang Qiong suddenly remembered the token given by the leader of the Flame Sect. He hesitated for a moment, then took out the token with a firm look and injected a trace of spiritual power into it.
The token instantly glowed brightly, a flame flashed, and the voice of the Flame Sect's leader came: "My friend, are you in trouble?"
Jiang Qiong told him in detail about the difficulties in forging the sword, with a hint of anxiety in his words.
The leader of the Flame Sect pondered for a moment and said, "This ore is an extremely yin substance and needs to be tempered with pure yang fire. I have a secret flame technique that can help you."
After saying that, a ray of light shot out from the token and merged into Jiang Qiong's mind. It was the method of practicing the secret art of fire.
Jiang Qiong was overjoyed and practiced the secret art of fire with Nan Fengxue and Lang Nana.
They practiced hard day and night, and with the help of secret techniques, they gradually mastered the skills to control the pure yang fire.
They successfully controlled the temperature of the ore and solved the cracking problem.
After countless attempts and tempering, a sword emitting a faint glow was finally forged in front of the hot casting table.
The sword has a slender blade, flashing a mysterious black light, and the hilt is inlaid with precious gems, emitting faint spiritual power fluctuations. (End of this chapter)
