The weapon refiner is not doing her job properly

Chapter 99 The Treacherous Old Ancestor Su
Xingyuan: [Yes, she and the Mystic Spirits are in the same space, and Su Ninglong must be present when you destroy them.]

Assistant Yu: [What's the difference between this and entering a contaminated area?]

Assistant Yu rubbed her throbbing temples.

Actually, this is not something he should be worrying about; it's Yun Fei who should be the one with a headache.

Xingyuan contacted him hoping he could mediate, and it would be absurd if he didn't know how to relay this request to Yunfei.

The allure of the tranquil earrings could bring him and his assistant, Liang, some peace and quiet.

[Twenty pairs, not for those who have pledged allegiance to the master; otherwise, there's no point in discussing.]

Principal Yan hopes that Star Alliance personnel will also be equipped with such equipment; twenty pairs, divided among themselves, could indeed alleviate some of the immediate crisis.

【make a deal. 】

The response was so decisive that it gave Assistant Yu a heart attack.

Xingyuan, this cunning fox who hasn't been in the game for long, probably foresaw that he would try to raise the price on the spot.

[I need to ask the boss's opinion first.] In other words, it was Yun Fei who finally nodded in agreement.

Xingyuan: [Okay.]

Assistant Yu turned to Yun Fei, who had just finished training, and asked, "Someone has applied to go into the contaminated area with the team. Boss, are you free to take them?"

The two assistants rarely inquired for others, so since they did, it was likely due to an important transaction or a close relationship. Yun Fei casually asked, "How much are they asking for?"

"They didn't mention any compensation."

Is it an unlimited amount? Yun Fei wiped his sweat-soaked hair with a towel and said, "More than three million."

After a while, not hearing a reply from Assistant Yu, he asked, "Have you already agreed on a price?"

"No, that's not it," Assistant Yu stammered. "The other party wants to get something for free."

Who's so arrogant as to try and freeload off his labor? Yun Fei: "Block him."

"Okay, it was sent by Xingyuan." Assistant Yu's voice suddenly perked up. Su Ninglong was such a troublemaker. "I'll block him right now."

"Wait a minute." Yun Fei took the problem seriously. "Why do you only say half of what you mean? Special people deserve special treatment."

Assistant Yu smirked and muttered under her breath, "Double standards."

"No need to block him, what does he want again?"

"Bring Su Ninglong into the contaminated area and eliminate the Mysterious Spirit."

Did they say why?

"They only said they had to be present when the Mystic Spirit was destroyed, and didn't make any other demands."

Yun Fei seemed thoughtful. This request was easy to fulfill. "Did she make any sacred artifacts?"

"Yes, there are twenty pairs of non-owner earrings."

"We require thirty couples to depart Friday night and add her name to the list of parasites to be eradicated on Ghostwood Planet."

Assistant Yu was taken aback, but then thought it made sense; that task was indeed suitable for Su Ninglong. "I understand."

There was a long and multi-round negotiation process in the middle, but after omitting those, Xingyuan and Su Ninglong reached an agreement.

Su Ninglong: "Planet Ghostwood is eradicating parasites? Will there be any Mystic Spirits?"

"If Yun Fei can take you there, there must be some secret spirit that can be easily destroyed in front of you, right?" In everyone's impression, Yun Fei is a reliable adult.

"Could you ask Assistant Yu to lend me a book, a mystery book of the same type as Fear of the Cold Abyss?"

"I've already asked for you, it will be delivered soon."

The thoughtful assistant, Su Ninglong, blew a kiss to Xingyuan and asked, "Xingyuan, do you want to come with me?"

She was a little worried that she wouldn't be eating or sleeping well.

"Not only am I going, but Lei Qingya will also be taken along. We'll also need to borrow Aoli." Xingyuan had summarized some experience. Su Ninglong's trip had to be fully prepared. Not only would trouble come knocking, but she herself would also actively invite trouble.

Su Ninglong: "..." Kids are such a hassle.

Xingyuan reminded him, "You need to think carefully about how you will pay for the loan from Ollie. Principal Yan doesn't accept star coins, and he won't accept anything too valuable either."

Ugh, isn't this forcing her to make a sacred artifact for that old man? It's not worth it!

"You can also have items with high artistic value."

Su Ninglong pondered calmly, "Could I borrow it first and pay it back later?"

"What do you think?" Principal Yan would probably rather read from a prepared statement than accept the "borrowing but not repaying" model.

Forget it, that's unrealistic. Without Principal Yan's permission, Ollie is only willing to stay on campus.

Su Ninglong thought carefully about what her special skills were.

Calligraphy? No, nobody appreciates it. The old master's cursive script was as wild as the man himself.

Painting? After being an ancestor for so many years, her achievements in painting are not as high as her level in composing. She has mastered 90% of the decadent music and could even do sound editing, but she has no interest in it.

As for carving, yes!
We already have the Summer Fragrance Wood Amulet 1.0, how about a 2.0?

Combining weapon crafting skills with musical talent...

A brilliant idea gradually formed in my mind.

Su Ninglong revealed a sly smile, slapped her thigh, and thought, "What a bargain! It's such a bargain! Why did it take me so long to think of this?"

After deciding what to do, she immediately began working on the second version of the Xiaxiangmu talisman.

The workshop door closed again, and occasionally sharp, explosive sounds would come from inside. Anyone who didn't know better would think that her robot had come up with yet another new trick.

In the second version, Xia Xiangmu is no longer a talisman, but a magic weapon, a magic weapon for sound cultivation.

The fragrant wood was directly made into a flute, combined with a small bamboo called purple bamboo. It is fifty centimeters long, and playing each hole consumes spiritual power, but it is definitely a healing artifact.

Spiritual power, when transformed by magical artifacts, can repair one's divine consciousness.

If Su Ninglong's spiritual power were used to repair her divine consciousness, it might be completely drained in an instant. Even after it was drained, it would only repair a small part of her divine consciousness, which would be a drop in the ocean.

But Principal Yan has enough spiritual power.

She's such a clever little genius, killing two birds with one stone.

"Xingyuan, Xingyuan, look, isn't it beautiful?" Su Ninglong showed off her new work.

"Beautiful." Xingyuan praised it before even looking at it.

Lei Qingya moved the stone frog out to bask in the sun, then watered the potted plant. "It looks very nice."

The wood is a deep, dark ebony color, with a hint of purple in the center that resembles the warm, smooth texture of jade. The entire flute is shrouded in mystery, making it quite unique.

"But what is this?" Lei Qingya asked.

"Musical instruments."

Xingyuan and Lei Qingya exchanged glances. It must be another new gadget that Su Ninglong had been messing around with. The two couldn't help but worry about the principal's ears. Wouldn't the sound of this instrument be like a dull knife scraping through sheet metal?

Su Ninglong, who had never been able to fix a robot, had never lost a battle with magical artifacts. She patted her chest and assured her, "Don't worry, with this, wherever Ollie wants to go with me in the future, it's just a matter of saying the word."

Lei Qingya: "Do you need me to run an errand to deliver it?"

"To show my sincerity, of course I have to deliver it in person!" Su Ninglong's eyes lit up, and she immediately pulled the two of them to find Principal Yan.

Principal Yan happened to be in the office as well, and Ollie obediently lay down at his feet. Footsteps came from outside the corridor, and Ollie immediately sat up, a grin spreading across his face, clearly recognizing who it was.

"Are you my dog, or Su Ninglong's dog?"

Ollie tilted his head. "Dogs love outdoor activities. It's the energetic kids who are the most fun! You're an old man, staying in the office all day. You're turning into a rotten wooden man."

Principal Yan sensed Ollie's emotional fluctuations and reluctantly pressed the open button. Su Ninglong didn't even need to ring the doorbell; she could just push the door open and rush into the office.

"Principal, Principal." Su Ninglong hugged Ollie's head tightly. The fluffy fur was so nice to pet, and the pressure was instantly released.

Everyone: "..."

Principal Yan stopped what he was doing and said, "I think it would be very difficult for Ollie to serve as principal."

"Don't be so serious, I came to give you a gift." Su Ninglong's face clearly said, "You got a great deal, hurry up and thank me."

Xingyuan closed the door casually. Lei Qingya stood with Xingyuan, their manners impeccable and proper, but they dared not speak.

Principal Yan looked up and pondered for a moment before asking, "What gift are you going to give me?"

"this!"

The gift was placed on the table. Principal Yan examined it for a while, twirled it in his hand twice, and said without asking what it was for, "Ning Long, you wouldn't give me a gift for no reason."

“I need to borrow Ollie,” Su Ninglong said. “Yun Fei is taking me to the Youmu Planet to eradicate the parasites. For safety, I think it’s necessary to bring Ollie and Qirui along. But Qirui is too young; it needs to learn some experience from Ollie.”

Very good idea.

When Ollie heard Su Ninglong mention him, he straightened his posture and his eyes lit up. "Can I go out and play now?"

Principal Yan now understands what his pet means.

"I accept your gift."

Do you know what I gave you?

“A musical instrument.” Principal Yan has traveled extensively and has seen the Haidan people, who live on remote planets, playing it.

"You actually think I'm just giving you a musical instrument?" Su Ninglong said in a deep voice, "Are you looking down on me, or on Ollie? Ollie is worth a lot of money."

Ollie, who was being held tightly by Su Ninglong, rubbed his cheek against Su Ninglong's.

Its eyes were gentle; the more it looked at the child, the more it liked him. No wonder he was the owner of another lead dog.

Principal Yan was surprised. Could musical instruments be sacred objects?
He rubbed the mouthpiece in his hand, unable to detect anything. After studying it for a while, he hesitated before placing the mouthpiece between his lips and, mimicking the movements of the Haidan people in his memory, tentatively exhaling a breath.

In the instant the air trembled, a high-pitched sound like a clear spring pierced the sky. Su Ninglong's consciousness seemed to be immersed in a hot spring in a bamboo forest shrouded in morning mist, and the fine cracks in her consciousness began to heal on their own.

Principal Yan could hardly believe that the music could actually draw energy from his body through the sacred artifact and transform it into energy that could heal his soul.

As he tried to change his fingering, Su Ninglong rested her head on Aoli's soft belly and swung her legs.

Lei Qingya and Xing Yuan also felt their souls being sublimated, feeling light and airy.

Once the principal figured out the rules of the musical scale, he spontaneously played a lively little tune.

As the last syllable ended, the principal, leaning on the armrest of his chair, was slightly out of breath, trying to regulate the boiling energy within him.

“I am very pleased with this gift. Ollie can use it freely while you are studying.”

Ollie pricked up his ears in shock. "No way, you just sold me out like that?"

"It's settled then." Su Ninglong smiled at Xingyuan and Lei Qingya, as if to say, "See? You can trust me."

She rolled over on Ollie and then said goodbye to the principal.

Before leaving, he said, "Principal, the more people there are, the greater the consumption. Also, please treat it gently; it cannot withstand all your power."

The principal smiled and expressed his understanding.

Su Ninglong skipped away, saying, "Oli, let's go for a walk, leaving your owner to quietly admire this amazing work of art."

After hearing this, Ollie followed Su Ninglong with small, quick steps.

The elderly man, now alone, was left in the office.

Principal Yan stroked his beard and chuckled, "He's a good kid."

Let Principal Yan be happy for a while longer. Next time he plays, he will understand that the reason he was so tired the first time and lost so much spiritual energy was all Su Ninglong's fault.

Su Ninglong patted her bottom and left, with Ollie wagging her tail as she followed.

"Even the good-natured dog has been turned into a little rascal by Su Ninglong." Lei Qingya admired Su Ninglong's influence; no matter where she was, she could assimilate the pets and people around her.

Xingyuan: "Perhaps, this is just how Ollie's personality is?"

Lei Qingya was stunned for a moment, then said, "That makes sense."

A person and a dog ran down the corridor when a figure suddenly appeared at the corner. Due to the excessive speed, Su Ninglong bumped into it.

Ollie stopped himself in time, sat up straight, and tilted his head to look at the person who had come.

Su Ninglong was lifted up by Funi, who was standing on a hoverboard, and gently placed on the ground. "Don't run in the corridor. You have to follow the school rules."

With a high-pitched voice, she delivered gentle yet powerful advice, and Su Ninglong nodded repeatedly, "Aoli and I both know we were wrong."

I never expected that Fennie, who is so small, would be so strong.

Ollie barked defiantly: I didn't crash into it!
"Are you here to see the principal?"

“We’re taking Ollie out for a walk, but the principal is busy.” Su Ninglong spoke the truth, but others interpreted it in the exact opposite way.

Sure enough, Furney believed it and said, "Good girl, you've learned to share the principal's burdens."

Lei Qingya, who was not far away, tilted his shoulder and wondered if he himself had been fooled by Su Ninglong in the same way.

But she couldn't remember when she had made that promise.

As I walked back to my workroom, the cabbage suddenly fell from the sky and landed on top of my favorite Ollie's head.

"Oli, Oli." Bai Cai rubbed against Oli and directed Oli to play in the foreign teacher's yard. Qi Rui was there. Recently, there had been more rat noises around the house, and cockroaches had also appeared. Qi Rui stayed behind to patrol around the house and catch these nasty little things.

"Which subject is Su Ninglong's teacher who was just standing on the hoverboard?" Lei Qingya asked Xingyuan in a low voice.

"Historical".

"Studied history? I thought you worked in a research institute."

Shen Zhaoming said more than once that Ling Gong was amazing, but he couldn't say exactly why he was amazing.

So she only had a vague idea that the Chilan dwarves were all quite intelligent, and subconsciously assumed that Funi would also be involved in technology-related work.

"Gah, Funi, little sister, Bell Demon, big sister." Cabbage flew to Lei Qingya's shoulder and repeated, "Funi, little sister. Bell Demon, big sister."

The parrot proudly showed off its knowledge, "Little sister, big sister."

"Are you saying that Funi and Lingfei are sisters?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Yes, yes, yes!" As a knowledgeable parrot, it knew many secrets about people on campus. But it wouldn't remember them unless others brought them up.

Xingyuan was surprised that the two were actually sisters. She couldn't believe it, and no one had ever mentioned it.

"Cabbage, you're amazing! How did you know they're sisters?"

"They've fallen out, quack quack, la la la, chirp chirp chirp. They're separated, they won't meet." The cabbage spreads its wings, vividly expressing the emotional state of the two sisters.

"Hehehe." Su Ninglong stretched out her finger, making the cabbage fly over. "Cabbage, how about we make a deal? If it works out, I'll give you half a pound of snow cicadas."

Upon hearing this, Bai Cai perked up and said, "What is it? Tell me."
