Conceptual melting pot, the fusion of all realms starting from the Qin Dynasty.

Seeing Zi Nu's worry, Chen Hao immediately adjusted his mindset and said seriously.

indeed!

Since Chen Hao reached the Grandmaster level in just over two months, his ego has begun to swell, and he no longer takes the world seriously.

If Chen Hao doesn't learn his lesson, he'll suffer a great loss sooner or later.

Fortunately, Chen Hao had a confidante like Zi Nu by his side to remind him, otherwise he wouldn't know when he would have realized it.

Chapter 074 The Deal with Wei Zhuang

At this moment, Han Fei looked at Chen Hao and Zi Nu's tightly clasped hands and Zi Nu's unusual intimacy with Chen Hao, and said with a smile, "Congratulations Mr. Chen Hao on winning the heart of Miss Zi Nu."

Upon hearing what Han Fei said, Zi Nu blushed and involuntarily withdrew her fair and delicate hand from Chen Hao's.

Chen Hao, however, smiled generously and said, "Thank you, Young Master Han Fei."

Twist it!

Seeing the two working together so well, Zi Nu pinched Chen Hao's waist soft flesh lightly in embarrassment and annoyance.

"Oh~!"

Chen Hao cried out in pain, clutching the soft flesh on his waist, and looked pitifully at Zi Nu.

"Hahaha~~!" Han Fei burst out laughing as he watched the interaction between Chen Hao and Zi Nu. "Mr. Chen Hao and Miss Zi Nu are really quite interesting."

...

Chen Hao, Zi Nu, and Han Fei chatted idly in the room while waiting for Wei Zhuang's decision.

With the cooperation of the city guards, none of them believed that Wei Zhuang could possibly fail.

After all, at this critical juncture where 100,000 military funds have been lost, no matter how bold Ji Wuye may be, he would not dare to send more people to guard the 100,000 gold coins.

Soon, Zhang Liang and Wei Zhuang arrived together.

The moment Zhang Liang stepped into the room, he bowed to Han Fei and reported the good news: "Young Master Han Fei, the lost 100,000 taels of military pay have been fully recovered."

"Good!" Han Fei excitedly walked up to Zhang Liang and personally helped him up.

Then he turned to Wei Zhuang and said, "This time, we owe a great debt to Brother Wei Zhuang, Zi Fang, Miss Zi Nu, and Mr. Chen Hao. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy to recover the lost military funds of Han."

Wei Zhuang ignored Han Fei's thanks and instead stared at him calmly: "Only with this achievement can you truly enter the court."

"I hope you can make good use of this opportunity."

Han Fei, already used to Wei Zhuang's coldness, said with a wry smile, "Brother Wei Zhuang, you really are a real spoilsport."

“However!” Han Fei suddenly became serious and slowly paced around the room: “In the current situation, I do have the power to do what I want to do only by entering the court.”

"By the way, Han Fei! Be careful these next few days." Chen Hao suddenly reminded him, "Although you recovered 100,000 taels of military pay, you have now become a thorn in Ji Wuye's side. He may send someone to kill you at any time."

“That’s right.” Zi Nu stepped forward and stared at Han Fei, saying, “Han Fei, try not to walk at night these next few days, so as not to be watched by others.”

"Ah~!!!"

Han Fei clutched his head and cried out in despair, "Then am I really in big trouble?"

Although they were just joking around, Han Fei knew that Chen Hao and Zi Nu were right; if he wasn't careful these next few days, he could easily be attacked.

As he spoke, Han Fei suddenly looked at Wei Zhuang pitifully and said, "Brother Wei Zhuang, my safety will depend on you from now on."

Just then, Chen Hao suddenly handed Han Fei a jade pendant: "Here, take this, in case something happens to you."

“What is this…?”

Han Fei took the jade pendant and asked with some doubt.

Chen Hao explained, "This is a magical artifact that can erect a defensive barrier upon receipt."

As he spoke, Chen Hao flicked a wisp of wind from his fingertips.

The power of the wind was not great; it was only enough to make Han Fei feel pain and turn purple, but it would not actually harm him.

Wei Zhuang seemed to have noticed this situation as well, so he did not help Han Fei stop him.

Poof~!

The wind was so fast that Han Fei didn't even have time to react before it crashed into him.

Then, in the next moment, a golden light enveloped Han Fei.

Only then did Han Fei realize what had just happened, but he had no intention of blaming Chen Hao. Instead, he looked at the layer of light surrounding Chen Hao and exclaimed, "This is...this is...?"

"This is the defensive barrier I was just talking about," Chen Hao explained with a smile. "However, this defensive barrier has a limit to the attacks it can withstand. Once the light membrane breaks, you'll have to find a way to defend against the subsequent attacks yourself."

Even Wei Zhuang's usually cold eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of amazement: "It's a very amazing thing."

“Using one’s own Qi to refine something into an independent supernatural ability is called weapon crafting.” Chen Hao looked at Wei Zhuang with a smile. “And those who can do this are called weapon crafters, and the weapons they craft are magical artifacts.”

"The world's top-ranked swords all have some unique effects to varying degrees."

Upon hearing what Chen Hao said, Han Fei's eyes flickered, and he thought of the Reverse Scale Sword that he treasured in his room.

Chen Hao noticed Han Fei's unusual behavior, but ignored it and continued speaking:

"It's just that for blacksmiths to forge such a famous sword with supernatural abilities, they need to rely on the right time, place, and people, even a little bit of luck, as well as the slow nurturing by future martial artists. They just haven't found a set of effective methods to replicate this supernatural ability yet."

After saying that, Chen Hao tempted Wei Zhuang, "Brother Wei Zhuang, would you like this method of weapon forging?"

"Although I cannot trade my fundamental weapon-refining method, I do have some common weapon-refining methods here."

"Don't you want to refine your shark tooth into such a magical artifact as well?"

Upon hearing Chen Hao's words, Wei Zhuang couldn't help but glance at his demonic sword, Shark Tooth, and then at the slowly dissipating golden light on Han Fei. After his gaze flickered several times, he coldly uttered two words to Chen Hao: "Conditions!"

It was clear that Wei Zhuang was tempted.

The jade pendant on Han Fei's body, capable of releasing a protective shield, was beyond Wei Zhuang's comprehension. And clearly, the weapon-refining technique Chen Hao spoke of could nurture different weapons to achieve different effects.

Therefore, Wei Zhuang wanted to see what kind of unique power his demonic sword, Shark Tooth, could possess by using this method.

"Brother Wei Zhuang, that's great!"

Chen Hao was extremely happy that he had made another deal and would gain something else.

Then Chen Hao stated his request, "I have heard that the Guigu School is also skilled in the art of Qimen Dunjia. If possible, I would like to exchange the Qimen Dunjia techniques of the Guigu lineage."

"Of course, if Brother Wei Zhuang can find the two volumes of the Three Changes, namely the Lianshan and Guizang, I can increase my stake."

Even with Lady Mingzhu's help, Chen Hao couldn't find the two books, "Lianshan" and "Guicang," so he could only ask these ancient schools of thought for help.

However, Chen Hao is certain that "Lianshan" and "Guicang" have not been lost or damaged in this world, so although collecting them is difficult, there is still a good chance.

Wei Zhuang gave Chen Hao a strange look, then nodded calmly: "Wait for my news."

Chen Hao cupped his hands in greeting to Wei Zhuang and said expectantly, "Then I look forward to good news from Brother Wei Zhuang."

Chapter 075 The Charm of Zi Nu and the Summoning of Ming Zhu

Afterwards, Chen Hao explained some important details about the defensive jade pendant to Han Fei.

After expressing his gratitude, Han Fei and Zhang Liang returned to rest together under Wei Zhuang's escort.

As for the establishment of the Quicksand organization?

Perhaps because Chen Hao was there, Han Fei was too embarrassed to say it aloud; or perhaps because of the news of the world's unification, Han Fei couldn't bring himself to utter such a boast as "I want ninety-nine of the seven kingdoms' empire."

In short, the famous Quicksand organization in Qin's Moon will likely have to be temporarily shelved.

...

In Zilan Pavilion, in Zi Nu's boudoir.

While nestled in Chen Hao's arms, Zi Nu played with the three magical artifacts Chen Hao had just given her: the Three Treasures Beads, the speed-increasing black silk, and the Tranquil Jade Pendant.

Then she glanced at the same three-piece set that Chen Hao had asked her to give to Nongyu, which was placed next to her, and joked:

"It seems that some greedy person wants to swallow both me and Nongyu whole - ah."

"Of course!" Chen Hao's right hand lingered on Zi Nu's long, black-stockinged legs and jade-like buttocks, but his face was filled with a gentle smile: "Since you have met such peerless women as Sister Zi Nu and Nong Yu, you can easily let go."

"If we leave any regrets, wouldn't we regret it for the rest of our lives?"

Chen Hao is now completely obsessed with Zi Nu's voluptuous, long legs in black stockings, and even wants to tell Zi Nu: I could play with these legs for a lifetime.

Zi Nu stared seductively into Chen Hao's eyes, drawing circles on his chest with her right index finger: "Although I don't dislike your greed, little guy, Chen Hao, you belong to me alone now, so don't have any wild thoughts at this time."

"Of course!"

Chen Hao assured Zi Nu.

Just then, Chen Hao noticed the jade bracelet on Zi Nu's wrist and suddenly thought, "That's right, Sister Zi Nu! I just learned the 'Divine Refinement of a Hundred Techniques' technique, so let me help you refine the jade bracelet again."

Zi Nu twirled the jade bracelet on her right wrist with her left hand, a happy smile curving her lips. Then she leaned against Chen Hao's chest, wrapping her arms around his waist: "Let's wait until tomorrow. Tonight, I just want you to stay with me quietly."
