Chapter 1948: Lump of metal
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Many people had chased after them. They knew that. Although they couldn’t help but exclaim that they were rather bold, they understood the lure that treasure had towards people. It wasn’t too strange that they would do this.
That was why they didn’t really plan on taking their lives directly. However, they quietly disappeared after staying in the inn for two days.
As for where they disappeared to, nobody knew.
After those people who were tailing them couldn’t find them after looking for them, they had no choice but to leave with dissatisfaction. However, they did not give up. They just went to look elsewhere.
Once everyone had left, Sima You Yue’s group appeared in the inn again.
“Alright, it’s pretty quiet now.” Sima You Yue said to Fu Xi when she realised that everyone had left, Now, let’s look into your condition.”
“Alright.”
Fu Xi was thinking about this long ago. Now that she was finally ready to start looking into his condition, he hopped over happily, “You Yue, what do you want me to do?”
“Tell me about how you used to be. Then, tell me what your masters and the others have tried.” Sima You Yue said.
“When I was seven years old, I once made a bet with a person. One of us would run to the ruins. Then, that’s where we found the Mythical Dragon Order. Then, my father told me that it was the divine dragon ruins. However, even though others had gone there many times, they couldn’t find the Mythical Dragon Order. I don’t know how I managed to find it.” Fu Xi was speechless towards this. If the others had found this Mythical Dragon Order then it would have been great. He would not have had to suffer for so many years.
Sima You Yue’s eyebrows raised when she heard this and asked, “Based on what Mo Yu has said, the Mythical Dragon Order sustains the majority of the divine dragon’s strength. It also has a certain consciousness and obeys the will of the master. Who knows, it might have chosen you. Otherwise, how could the others have failed to find it so many times while you, a seven or eight year old child, managed to find it?
“Sigh, my master and the others said the same thing.” Fu Xi sighed, “However, if it really chose me, why didn’t it spare a thought for my body!”
Ever since he had formed a contract with the Mythical Dragon Order, his body has stopped growing. Even up till now, he looked like a seven or eight year old child. His master had said that it was because the Mythical Dragon Order was too powerful that his body could not bear it. Instead of allowing him to grow stronger, it actually pressured his body, preventing him from growing.
“Perhaps it had waited too long. However, there’s no need to think about this.” Sima You Yue guessed, “Did your masters do anything for you?”
“Actually, my body has always been nourished by herbs. This is the list of items that I’ve used before. Fu Xi took out a thick stack of paper. Inside it listed a few herbs as well as some pill recipes.
Sima You Yue looked at those recipes with surprise. It contained the success rate of the pill, the necessary herbs and the method.
“These…”
“My master said that, since you are able to help. Then this is our gift of gratitude. If you are able to treat me, there’s an even bigger gift to thank you.” Fu Xi said.
Sima You Yue did not have much expectations towards his great gift of gratitude. However, she liked the pill recipes quite a lot. She looked at them attentively, feeling like the usual ones could be used to strengthen the body, which was what she needed right now.
However, this was not the time to study them. She continued to look at the remaining herbs and was incredibly awed at the ingredients needed.
They were truly a lot more powerful than the herbs that she had encountered before.
“Your master is quite sincere. Now that I’ve seen these pill recipes, I can’t not treat you properly.” Sima You Yue mentioned as she placed the paper on the table with her right hand knocking it lightly.
“Hehe, Master really did mention it before.” Fu Xi sat in front of her. He took out a few walnuts and placed them in front of her. Then, he took two of them and ate the inside.
“You really like walnuts. Sima You Yue looked at the walnuts. She hadn’t even eaten the ones that he had given her before.
“In the past, Master was the one who forced me to eat them. He said that these were good for me because I always didn’t use my brain. Then, I just got used to it and liked it.” Fu Xi said, “Try it. It tastes pretty good.”
Sima You Yue took one. He had already opened it slightly, but she still had to use force to open it. She tried a bite of the nut inside and it truly tasted decent. As she swallowed it, she could feel the vigorous spirit energy release in her body. The thing that surprised her the most was that the spirit energy did not randomly dissipate, but entered straight into her bones.
It seemed like Fu Xi’s master had given these to him to strengthen his body.
“The shells on these are too tough, they’re difficult to pry open.” Fu Xi said, “However, I found a chunk of iron recently. It’s unexpectedly easier to use. That’s why I use it to open them whenever I’m bored and continue eating.”
“Can you give me these shells so I can study them?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Sure, I have no use for them anyway.” Fu Xi’s reply was straightforward.” Are you going to use it to study its use as a tool? I heard that its possible. However, I’ve never tried.”
Sima You Yue truly did want to use it in tool refinement.
“These are my last few pieces. I’ll open a few more for you.” Fu Xi took out a pile that had not yet been peeled, then took out a dark black squarish lump of metal. With a push, a crack appeared in the tough walnut shell. After two more knocks, it split into half.
Sima You Yue was a little surprised at how sturdy the tool was. She knew just how hard this walnut shell was. Even Mo Yu and the others couldn’t shatter them but this lump of metal actually cracked it in a moment and split it in two to three moves. It was clear how powerful this lump of metal was.
Fu Xi peeled a pile of it, then placed them in front of Sima You Yue, saying, “These are for you.”
Sima You Yue looked at those walnuts and said, “These walnuts aren’t cheap, right? Are you giving them to me just like that?”
“Others may find it difficult to get them, but I have many of them. You don’t have to stand on ceremony with me.” Fu Xi beamed at her as he spoke.
“I won’t hold back, then.” Sima You Yue knew that he definitely had his own secret. Since he didn’t want to say it, she didn’t need to hold back on him.
“What are you guys talking about?” Wu Lingyu and Mo Yu walked in from the courtyard. He saw that the two of them were talking and laughing happily in the pavilion and walked over to ask.
“We’re talking about these walnuts!” Sima You Yue pointed at the walnut shells, “I want to try and see if they can be used to refine tools, so he gave me a pile of them.”
“These have all been deshelled. They’re not easy to deshell.” Mo Yu said.
“He has a metal tool. It’s really useful. He managed to deshell one in just two to three moves.” Sima You Yue said.
“Oh? Most things aren’t that hard. You brat, you couldn’t have used a divine tool to deshell walnuts, right?” Mo Yu asked.
“No way, right? No matter how I look at it, it doesn’t look like a divine tool. Even if it was one, it’d be a useless divine tool because no matter how I use it, I don’t get a response. It doesn’t have a single bit of spirit energy, so it’s just an ordinary piece of metal.” Fu Xi said as he took out the piece of metal, placing it in front of everyone.
When Mo Yu saw it, he took in a sharp breath.
