Yang Luo pursed her lips, finally accepted the candy, and whispered thank you.
Zhi Zixun smiled and gently patted her head, then stood up and said to Shi Guijia, "What a lovely child."
"……Um."
"Her hair color is also very pretty; she'll probably grow up to be a little beauty."
"Thank you for your flattery."
"No, that's not true. She's really cute."
Isn't it cute...?
Shi Guijia looked down at her, and the child quickly looked up as well, her eyes reflecting the image of her mother.
"...Tsk."
Their hands met without them even realizing it.
"There's nothing else, we'll be going now, we'll visit you again next time."
"Yes, it is getting late today. Be careful on your way back."
The two said goodbye to each other.
Finally, Zhi Zixun looked at Shi Guijia with gentle eyes and said, "I sincerely hope that you will have a happy life in the future, Miss Shi Guijia."
"……Thanks."
The final words conveyed blessings, which Shi Guijia accepted.
When they turned around after walking a short distance, the girl named Zhi Zixun was still standing there, gazing at them tenderly. When she saw them turn around, she smiled and waved goodbye to them.
On the way back to town, the plane roared along. Shi Guijia turned her head slightly, but this time Yang Luoyi didn't look at her. The little guy was quietly looking at the dandelion seeds in his palm, seemingly thinking about something.
"Um, Luo Yi..."
"Ok?"
What did you wish for?
"Hey?"
"I don't mean to inquire. How should I put it? You see, if a wish is kept in your heart and not known by others, it's very difficult to fulfill. So if you tell me, maybe I can make it come true for you."
"...I hope my dandelion can grow up."
Ah, in every sense, it aligns quite well with the wishes and desires of children.
Just as Shi Guijia was about to say something, Yang Luoyi interrupted her with her unfinished words: "...Also, Mother and Aunt are in good health."
"..."
"Mother, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just feel that health depends on the individual, and the dragon probably can't control health."
"I see..."
"But, but, since you made this wish, I think it will have some effect, for example, right now, I don't really want to drink."
"Oh, really?"
"Ah."
Wow, that's amazing!
"Next time, make another wish that you want."
"Can I come with my mother next time?"
"...if I have time."
"it is good!"
The little creature's eyes shone brightly, like fireworks, or like the sun.
Shi Guijia's lips curled up slightly, but the smile vanished immediately.
"Luoyi..."
"Ok?"
"Let's get along well for the next three months."
"Um!!"
The plane streaked across the clouds, leaving a long trail.
A young girl by Shenlong Lake looked up, placed her hands on her chest, and made a sincere wish, hoping that the mother and daughter could find their own happiness.
Chapter 327 Countdown: Twenty-Five Days
On the fifth day of living together, the mother and daughter ended their trip and returned to their small town.
"How was the game?"
"...It's alright."
The tool, known as the "telephone," was originally conceived and created by Yang Pingsheng. Over the years, Shi Guijia has lived a life of decadence and debauchery, and this is the first time she has taken it out again.
"Hmph, I knew you couldn't just ignore Xiao Yi. Knowing she was on vacation, you would definitely take her out to play."
"...You really have faith in me."
Not in a dark room, with the doors and windows open and sunlight streaming in, Yang Luoyi was intently assembling some kind of mechanical toy on the table, while Shi Guijia leaned against the corner, chatting idly with her younger sister.
"Hey, Luoyi, do you want to talk to your aunt?"
"..."
Seemingly engrossed in assembling his toys, Yang Luo didn't respond to any of the questions.
"Never mind, never mind." Shi Guiyan's voice came from inside, with a smile, "That's just how that child is, when he's completely focused, he ignores everyone, just like someone used to be."
"...How are they the same?"
"Refining weapons, you used to be like this too, right? And your temper was much worse than hers. If anyone bothered you, you would beat and scold them, like a tyrant."
"……really."
"That child is very interested in weapon crafting and has a talent for it. Why don't you teach her?"
Refining weapons...
The sun was shining brightly, but Shi Guijia was still sitting in a place where the light didn't reach her. Her phone call with her younger sister stirred up her memories once again.
Once the world's number one weapon refiner, he dabbled in ninth-grade immortal artifacts. At his peak, even True Immortals had to give way to him.
But that's all in the past now.
"What you've taught me is enough."
"Can my teaching be the same as yours? Besides, you're much better than me."
Shi Guiyan was telling the truth.
While she was still studying sixth-grade magical artifacts, Shi Guijia had already begun disassembling and researching ninth-grade magical artifacts.
"How about it? Think it over and teach her. You don't want your skills to die out, do you?"
Shi Guijia remained silent.
She glanced at the little one's focused expression, coughed, and changed the subject: "By the way, what made you stay so long this time?"
This question seemed to have touched a nerve, and Shi Guiyan immediately became serious: "I don't know the specifics yet, but I've received news that it might be related to the catastrophe."
Catastrophe, in this world, is also known as an extraterrestrial disaster.
At certain intervals, extraterrestrial energy breaks through the world's barriers, polluting the world and bringing various disasters—celestial fire, deep water, destructive thunder, sorrowful snow, and so on.
After so many years of operation, the world's barriers have developed many loopholes. The essence of royal rituals is to repair these loopholes, and the ritual objects are the tools used to repair them.
This is why weapon refiners are so highly valued in this world. You must know that calamities carry the aura of extraterrestrial realms. Even True Immortals risk being downgraded if they rashly come into contact with them. Therefore, every time a calamity descends, we can only wait for it to disappear silently. The only thing people can do is to constantly repair the loopholes in the world.
"...Is this serious?"
"It's quite serious. I heard that the simulations have already come out that this catastrophe may spread all over the world. The royal family has summoned all the high-level weapon refiners to carry out a large-scale repair and protection."
"Is that so? Thank you for your hard work."
"Yes, sis, don't let Xiao Luo be sad."
"……understood."
After hanging up the phone, Shi Guijia leaned against the wall, feeling utterly bored.
Cataclysm, sacrificial artifacts, world guardians—these were things she might have thought about before, but now…
"Hey, Luo Yi."
There was no response; he continued working very diligently.
"Hey!"
Still no response.
Shi Guijia had no choice but to stand up, walk over, and pick up her toy, at which point the latter exclaimed as if startled awake from a dream, "Ah..."
Shi Guijia said helplessly, "You're too focused. I'm calling you."
"Um……"
"Weapon crafting, would you like to learn?"
"miss you!"
I answered without hesitation.
The little guy's eyes lit up, and his whole spirits lifted, making him exceptionally bright.
The path of weapon crafting can be both difficult and easy.
What's rare is that the higher the grade of the magical artifact, the more complex the design becomes, and therefore the harder it is to succeed. What's simple is that it's very easy to get started, unlike alchemy or practicing killing moves, which have extremely high barriers to entry.
Practicing killing moves requires reaching the Earth Immortal cultivation level and awakening a celestial artifact. Alchemy requires recognizing various herbs and understanding the compatibility between one's own spiritual energy and the herbs. However, weapon crafting is not so complicated. Its first step is simply to manipulate spiritual energy to inscribe a spiritual energy circuit.
