So what if I have a few billion concubines while I'm cultivating immortality?

The same scene also played out inside the Ziyan Pavilion.

Mu Yunshan felt a momentary blur before his eyes, as if his thoughts had been momentarily frozen.

After calming down, I saw Qin Xiao and Mu Ziyan standing calmly not far away.

The guards, including Wang Gang, and the maids, including Zhi Shu, all wore similar expressions of bewilderment.

A strange feeling lingered in everyone's hearts.

I have a feeling that something very important has happened.

But what exactly it is remains unclear...

Suddenly, Mu Yunshan realized something and looked at Qin Xiao in a panic, urgently saying, "Young Master Qin, the Prince of Jin has led a large army to besiege the pavilion! What should we do?!"

Wang Gang, Zhi Shu, and the others became anxious after being reminded of this, and all looked at Qin Xiao, waiting for his decision.

Only Mu Ziyan, upon hearing Mu Yunshan's nonsensical words, suddenly looked astonished.

Hasn't the matter been resolved?

What's wrong with Father?

"President Mu, there's no need to panic. Qin Yuan has already withdrawn his troops; everything is fine now."

At this moment, Qin Xiao calmly spoke up.

"They...they've withdrawn?"

Mu Yunshan was taken aback.

The Prince of Jin mobilized a large army, but he only shouted a few words at the besieged pavilion.

And then they just left like that?

Filled with suspicion, he cautiously moved to the front of the Ziyan Pavilion.

After hesitating for a moment, he gently pushed the door open a crack.

They peered out nervously.

The street outside was deserted.

The dark, imposing army seemed to have never existed.

However, there were large patches of blood on the ground.

There were also the corpses of martial arts masters.

"this……"

Mu Yunshan was dumbfounded.

Gradually, an idea came to mind.

It must be His Majesty's hidden guards who have made their move!

Soon, Wang Gang and the others also came forward and pushed the door open a little more.

Wang Gang was startled and asked Mu Yunshan in surprise, "Master, what's going on?"

Mu Yunshan said seriously, "Didn't I tell you before? In the face of important matters, one must remain calm and have everything under control!"

Zhi Shu nervously asked Mu Yunshan, "Master, who killed these martial arts masters?"

Mu Yunshan stroked his beard, shaking his head solemnly, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed!"

Seeing Mu Yunshan and the others' reactions, Mu Ziyan's doubts deepened.

She glanced at Qin Xiao, her beautiful eyes filled with doubt.

Qin Xiao smiled slightly and transmitted his voice to Mu Ziyan: "Yan'er, don't worry. I've erased some of their memories. There's no need for too many people to know these things, as it only adds to their troubles and panic."

Mu Ziyan was startled when she heard the telepathic message coming directly into her mind.

Immediately, her beautiful eyes lit up with amazement as she marveled at this incredible skill.

Finally, he nodded obediently to Qin Xiao and didn't ask any more questions.

Qin Xiao straightened his expression, looked at Mu Yunshan, and said, "President Mu, may I speak to you in private?"

"good!"

Mu Yunshan quickly turned around and respectfully replied.

Soon, Qin Xiao led Mu Yunshan and Mu Ziyan to a private room on the second floor to discuss their business.

Wang Gang and the others then dispersed and went about their own business.

Inside the private room.

Qin Xiao sat down, and Mu Ziyan naturally sat down beside him.

At Qin Xiao's suggestion, Mu Yunshan sat down in the seat opposite him.

Qin Xiao cut to the chase, asking, "President Mu, Jinyang Prefecture is located on the border of Dayong, with rolling mountains, and it seems to be rich in various kinds of minerals?"

Mu Yunshan nodded and replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, that is indeed the case. Jinyang Prefecture is rich in mineral resources, especially iron and copper ore, as well as some rare black iron veins, but mining them is not easy."

Then, he gave Qin Xiao a brief introduction to the mineral distribution in Jinyang Prefecture.

Qin Xiao nodded slightly and continued, "In that case, there must be many skilled craftsmen in the state, especially blacksmiths who are adept at smelting and forging?"

"That's natural."

Mu Yunshan affirmed, "Within Jinyang Prefecture alone, there are no fewer than dozens of good blacksmith shops, and several master craftsmen possess superb skills. May I ask, Your Majesty, what kind of weapons or armor do you require forged?"

Qin Xiao shook his head: "No, what I want to forge is a weapon-refining cauldron. This matter requires you to secretly find the best blacksmith and carry it out in secret!"

Mu Yunshan's spirits lifted, knowing this was an opportunity to make a contribution. He quickly assured his master, "No matter what it is, as long as Your Majesty provides the design, this old minister will certainly find the best craftsmen and use the best materials to forge it for Your Majesty!"

Qin Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "I will provide the materials, and this matter must be kept absolutely confidential. Find a reliable person to make it strictly according to the blueprints."

Mu Yunshan quickly rose, bowed respectfully, and solemnly replied, "Your Majesty, rest assured! This old minister will personally oversee the project, finding the most reliable craftsmen and conducting it in absolute secrecy, ensuring that not a single detail is leaked!"

"Um."

Qin Xiao nodded in satisfaction. "Go and find the craftsmen first. I'll give you the materials and blueprints later. Get them done as soon as possible!"

Having received Qin Xiao's instructions, Mu Yunshan felt both a heavy responsibility on his shoulders and an overwhelming sense of excitement.

He bowed respectfully and took his leave, then went off to secretly search for a reliable craftsman.

Only Qin Xiao and Mu Ziyan remained in the private room.

Qin Xiao was not in a hurry to leave.

Instead, he frowned slightly and fell into thought.

The spirit ore is already in hand.

Refining one's own natal magic weapon and even other magical artifacts is now an urgent matter.

Without magical treasures to aid them, cultivators' strength will be greatly diminished.

Moreover, once you successfully craft your natal magic weapon, the system will also give you a generous gift package.

However, he was completely ignorant of the art of weapon crafting.

As the emperor, Qin Xiao had already read through the books in the imperial palace's treasury countless times.

Although it contains some strange and fantastical tales.

However, there are no texts on cultivating immortality.

If even the royal collection is like this, one can only imagine what it's like for the common people!

Looking at the entire Dayong Dynasty.

I have never heard of any other cultivators.

There are no records related to weapon crafting.

The current training methods are all provided by the system.

The earliest version was the "Hehuan Immortal Scripture".

In addition, the gift pack after Core Formation contains only a few low-level spells such as Fireball, Sound Transmission, and Sword Control.

Without a system, even with spiritual roots, he would be unable to cultivate immortality.

He was even less able to lead Luo Qingluan and Mu Ziyan onto the path of cultivation.

However, regarding weapon crafting, the system didn't mention providing a weapon crafting furnace or cauldron.

There were no techniques for weapon crafting either...

Thinking of this, Qin Xiao sighed, "Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice!"

In the current situation, let alone refining a natal magic weapon.

Even when it comes to refining cauldrons used for crafting weapons, they are completely clueless.

There are no precedents or traditions to draw upon.

You can only figure it out and try it yourself.

You can imagine the effort and time it took!

Mu Ziyan sat quietly to the side, and seeing Qin Xiao's troubled expression, she couldn't help but feel concerned.

She moved closer gently and asked softly, "Young master, have you encountered any difficulties?"

"If it's convenient, perhaps you could tell me about it."

"Although Yan'er is dull-witted, she still wishes to share the burden for the young master..."
