Only after becoming emperor did he realize he was in a fantasy world of immortal cultivation.

Renxin Hall.

Gong Ren's residence.

After Gong Xing and Gong Yong explained the current progress to Gong Ren, the three of them fell silent.

However, the empty living room was not quiet at this moment.

The soft, intermittent sounds of nibbling on spiritual fruits could be heard.

Gong Yong was already used to it, and his face remained calm and composed.

"Gong-xing—" Gong Ren's gaze fell on the unsightly spiritual fruit in Gong Xing's hand, and he gritted his teeth as he spoke.

"Alright, alright." Seeing Gong Ren's bulging veins, Gong Xing had no intention of doing anything that would provoke a tiger. Under Gong Ren's angry gaze, he quickly finished off the spiritual fruit in his hand.

Then, waving his hands, he said earnestly, "I won't eat anymore."

However, Gong Ren's complexion was not much better than before.

"Gong Xing, you are at least a disciple of a collateral branch of the Gong Clan, yet you..." At this point, Gong Ren's gaze towards Gong Xing became more disgusted, but considering that he still needed him, he paused for a moment before continuing, "Your gluttonous habit is truly a disgrace to the clan."

Gong Ren wasn't angry when he heard this. He put on his usual shrewd face and said with a smile, "Senior Brother Gong Ren, I've been like this for more than a day or two. Why bother with me?"

"Let's talk about Lin Yuan instead."

Upon hearing the name "Lin Yuan," Gong Ren's attention immediately shifted.

He stopped dwelling on Gong Xing's "old habits" and simply snorted, "Things have come to this, Lin Yuan..."

After a pause, Gong Ren narrowed his eyes, his dark pupils devoid of light, and then said in a deep voice, "He has nowhere else to go."

At this point, he seemed to remember something, and his expression became more serious. "However..."

"Now that Lin Yuan hasn't produced any magical artifacts, how does the Weapon Refining Hall plan to explain this to my father?"

This time, he was determined to cut off all of Lin Yuan's escape routes.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gong Ren's gaze fell on Gong Xing.

Interspersed among them were countless tiny awns and needles.

However, Gong Xing seemed completely unaware. He even subconsciously took a spiritual fruit from his storage bag and was about to put it to his mouth when he suddenly felt the cold light on his body getting stronger. So he regretfully put the spiritual fruit on the table.

Then he looked at Gong Ren and said, "Don't worry, senior brother, we have already purchased a high-grade magic artifact from another place beforehand."

"Oh?" Gong Ren's expression clearly showed satisfaction. "Let me take a look."

Upon hearing this, Gong Xing shifted his gaze to Gong Yong, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Gong Yong then waved his hand, and in the blink of an eye, a dark gold longsword appeared before the three of them.

It hovered in the air, its blade simple yet possessing a unique character, like towering mountains, not to be trifled with.

"What a fine sword." Even though Gong Ren considered himself to be quite knowledgeable, he couldn't help but praise it when he saw the longsword.

"This sword is called the 'Yin Yang Twin Swords'," Gong Xing said at the opportune moment.

Gong Ren asked in confusion, "Dual swords?"

"Senior brother, please watch." Gong Xing then uttered a true word and cast a spell into the sword.

A moment later, Gong Ren saw the longsword split in two.

The room was filled with the gleam of swords.

Gong Ren's eyes were completely occupied by the two swords.

One left and one right.

He couldn't even tell which of the two swords, one heavy and one light, was better.

Gong Xing slowly stood up.

He flashed to the sword's side.

Control the sword with incantations.

The Yin-Yang Twin Swords then spun around Gong Ren several times.

Gong Ren felt the power of the twin swords even more deeply, and his love for them grew even stronger.

Without hesitation, he blurted out, "Where did you purchase these twin swords?"

Gong Xing, who was idly fiddling with the spiritual fruits on the table to satisfy his cravings, replied upon hearing this, "Hundred Treasures Pavilion."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a strong tremor suddenly struck him.

His body swayed twice, then he looked up and saw that the two swords that Gong Ren had controlled were now stuck straight into the floor tiles.

Spiderweb-like cracks spread out in all directions.

Even now, its swordplay still possesses considerable power.

This doesn't look like a sword-testing exercise.

Gong Xing muttered these words to himself as he looked up.

As expected, Gong Ren looked very unwell.

The creases between his eyebrows and eyes could practically trap a fly.

Gong Xing then exchanged a glance with Gong Yong, who was standing next to him, and the exchange ended with Gong Yong shaking his head.

"Senior brother, what's wrong with you...?" Gong Xing asked tentatively.

He simply couldn't understand why Gong Ren had become so angry in those few short moments.

Gong Ren remained silent upon hearing this.

The hand controlling the Yin-Yang swords pressed down even further, causing many more cracks to appear in the ground.

For a moment, the only sound in the room was the cracking of the ground.

A moment later, Gong Ren raised his hand.

Gong Xing and Gong Yong then saw two long swords suddenly rise from the ground, and then fly as far as they could before finally embedding themselves hard in a wall in the hall.

The ground shook again.

"You guys really know how to pick a place," Gong Ren said, his tone clearly suppressing his anger.

Baibaozhai?

He would never forget the day the owner of Baibaozhai told him who was the person who repaired the Yellow Heaven Sword.

Gong Renxing sat down at the table, his dark eyes sweeping over Gong Xing and Gong Yong, their sharpness like piercing ice.

Gong Xing and Gong Yong exchanged a glance, and finally Gong Xing spoke first: "Senior Brother Gong Ren, is there something wrong with this Hundred Treasures Pavilion?"

"Baibaozhai..." Gong Ren murmured, his eyes narrowing slightly. After a long while, he said, "Do you know who forged the magical artifacts you bought?"

Gong Ren shook his head without hesitation. Regardless of who crafted this magical artifact, being valued by the Gong Clan was an unparalleled honor.

He didn't think it necessary to investigate who made it.

but......

Judging from Gong Ren's expression, he seemed to know who the person who crafted the magical artifact was.

Moreover, this person greatly angered him.

Could it be...

"Senior Brother Gong Ren, could it be that the weapon refiner who forged these Yin-Yang Twin Swords is... Lin Yuan?" Gong Xing slowly revealed his guess.

Upon hearing this, Gong Ren slammed his right hand on the table and said coldly, "It must be him."

After uttering these few words so resolutely, Gong Ren said his piece and clearly did not want to say anything more.

Gong Xing changed the subject at the right moment, his gaze falling on the magic artifact on the wall that had now merged into one, and said, "In that case, Senior Brother Gong Ren, let's go find another magic artifact immediately."

However, a high-grade magic artifact is not an ordinary magic artifact. Even if we search for it in the name of the Gong Clan, it will probably take some time.

"Hmph, trash." Gong Ren looked at Gong Xing with undisguised contempt in his eyes, and then said, "You are both weapon refiners of the Gong Clan, so why can't you refine high-grade magic weapons?"

Gong Xing smiled and shrugged, meeting Gong Ren's gaze, and said, "People are always different, aren't they?"

"Just like not all sword cultivators are Senior Brother Wuchen."

"you......"

Before Gong Ren could get angry, Gong Xing hurriedly said, "Senior brother, this was our oversight."

"Time is of the essence, we..."

However, before Gong Xing could finish speaking, Gong Ren seemed to have thought of something and raised his hand to make a "stop" gesture.

"There's no need to change the ritual implements," Gong Ren then said.

Gong Xing thought about it for a moment after hearing this, and quickly understood Gong Ren's intention.

Even if this magical artifact was crafted by Lin Yuan, it was still crafted by him for the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

If he hasn't refined the magical artifacts he was supposed to, even if they bring out the Yin-Yang Twin Swords that Lin Yuan refined, it will be useless.

He could only watch helplessly.

And this is undoubtedly what Gong Ren most wants to see.

"Lin Yuan, this time..." Gong Ren's words were cut short, but his meaning was already clear.
