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

As she spoke, her gaze swept towards Lin Yuan, intentionally or unintentionally.

"There are only five days left until the Gong family's banquet for all the immortal sects, which is also the day when the Weapon Refining Hall promises to complete all the magic weapons."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan scoffed inwardly: What a promise! Who made such a promise?

Lin Yuan stood tall and elegant, his expression unchanged as Gong Ren's gaze gradually turned into a knife.

Gong Ren didn't care about Lin Yuan's appearance.

At this point, he had come to regard Lin Yuan as a dying prey.

What he needs to do now is to slowly torture his prey to death.

"Gong Xing," Gong Renhao turned his gaze to Gong Xing in a good mood, and then said, "You tell me, what are the arrangements for the magical artifact? And how is its forging progressing?"

"Reporting to Sixth Elder and Young Master Gong Ren," Gong Xing bowed to the head of the table, his expression noticeably more solemn than usual, and said, "Lin Yuan will be in charge of forging the magical artifacts, while we will assist him from the sidelines."

"There are a total of seventeen magical artifacts for sword practice," Gong Xing said at a measured pace. "Fifteen of them are mid-grade magical artifacts, and all of them have been forged."

"Of the two high-grade magic artifacts, the flying sword that Junior Brother Gong Yi needs has already been forged," Gong Xing paused, a hint of hesitation in his voice, "As for the magic artifact that Young Master Wu Jue needs, Junior Brother Lin Yuan needs to specify it himself."

Upon hearing this, Gong Ren's gaze gradually shifted to the side.

At this moment, he stood at the head of the table, his gaze fixed on the viewpoint above him.

He looked at Lin Yuan, and his mind couldn't help but recall the past when Lin Yuan was arrested in the main hall, and when he was subjected to ten spiritual whips in the Hall of Enforcement...

All of this made him, the direct descendant of the Gong family, utterly humiliated.

"Lin, Yuan!" Gong Ren gritted his teeth in his heart.

Gong Ren exerted a great deal of effort to calm his emotions.

"Lin Yuan, you can't possibly not know why the Gong family is hosting this banquet for all the immortal sects." Gong Ren spoke much slower than usual, each word like a knife slowly grinding Lin Yuan's heart, aiming to make him unable to live and only lead him step by step towards his predetermined death.

Unfortunately, Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged.

Upon seeing this, Gong Ren's smug smile unconsciously faded.

Lin Yuan, I'd like to see if you can still be so calm later.

"Young Master Wujue's magic weapon is of utmost importance. Lin Yuan, why don't you tell me why you haven't been able to forge a magic weapon yet?" Gong Ren deliberately emphasized the last few words.

Upon hearing this, everyone's positions remained unchanged.

But something seemed to have changed imperceptibly.

Perhaps it's about everyone's state of mind.

He Buxi: It seems his risky suggestion was ultimately superfluous. What a pity, such a talented weapon refiner...

Gong Xing: The Pisces artifact is mine now.

Gong Yong: ......

Lin Yuan himself, at the center of the vortex, remained expressionless.

He slightly raised his eyes, and Gong Renzhi's smug expression came into view without any deviation.

Gong Ren knew exactly what he wanted to hear.

but......

Lin Yuan slightly shifted his gaze to the side.

The Sixth Elder sipped his tea, seemingly detached from the situation, his every gesture exuding elegance.

Lin Yuan thought to himself: What does the Sixth Elder want to hear him say again?

Did he want him to go along with what Gong Ren said?

Or... should we watch a play?

A moment later, Lin Yuan bowed in greeting.

The Refining Hall is, after all, the Sixth Elder's territory. If the Sixth Elder intends to protect Gong Ren, his chances of winning are too slim.

He might as well use this incident to test the Sixth Elder's attitude.

It would also be good to see if this place was indeed the place where he could unleash his full potential.

"Lin Yuan knows he is wrong, and begs the elder to punish him."

Everyone only heard Lin Yuan say this.
