“Grandpa, I’m going to see Guo Yong and Guo Qiang.” Leng Ruoxue nodded and left Leng Qingtian’s study.
Leng Ruoxue arrived at the yard where Guo Yong and his brother were staying. Just as she entered the yard, she saw the two brothers arguing with their faces red, and they were about to start a fight…
“What are you doing?” Leng Ruoxue shook her head helplessly and approached them.
Guo Yong snorted, rolled his eyes at Guo Qiang, and said to Leng Ruoxue, “Junior Aunt, you came at the right time. Please be the judge!”
“What are you arguing about?” Leng Ruoxue was curious. Is this about artificing?
“I want to refine artifacts, but he insisted on giving his opinions,” Guo Qiang explained angrily.
“The materials you put in were wrong. Of course I have to say it,” Guo Yong said matter-of-factly. He didn’t think he was wrong.
“That’s my business. I can put in any material of mine whenever I want!” Guo Qiang immediately retorted, not backing down at all.
“You two want to fight just because of this matter?” Leng Ruoxue was really speechless. These two people together aren’t young anymore. Can they not be so childish!
“Hmph!” Both of them snorted and turned their heads away at the same time, ignoring each other.
“I have something to discuss with you two.” Leng Ruoxue changed the topic. She didn’t intend to get involved in their fight. After all, every artificer’s refining habits and techniques were different, so how could they be generalized?
“What is it, Junior Aunt?” The two turned their heads simultaneously and looked at Leng Ruoxue with flattering expressions.
“Is everything alright in your Artificer Association?” Leng Ruoxue asked implicitly. What she implied was that it was time for them to go back. Moreover, their gazes made her hair stand on end. It was really unbearable…
Guo Yong and Guo Qiang looked at each other in bewilderment. They immediately understood that Leng Ruoxue was here to chase them away, but they didn’t want to leave yet!
“Don’t worry, Junior Aunt. The Artificer Association is very free. Nothing major usually happens, and we don’t have to deal with small things,” Guo Yong explained with a smile, automatically converting Leng Ruoxue’s words into concern.
“Yes, Junior Aunt. Rest assured. You don’t need to worry about us,” Guo Qiang said cooperatively with a smile on his face.
These two people are obviously pretending to be stupid! Leng Ruoxue was a little speechless. What do they want? To be honest, they had stayed in the general’s mansion for a few days, but they had rarely looked for her. This puzzled her. What is their goal? Leng Ruoxue had been thinking about this question for some time.
“Oh, in that case, just stay here in peace. I’m leaving,” Leng Ruoxue said a little gloomily and then turned and left.
Back at the Listening Snow Pavilion, Leng Ruoxue sat listlessly on a stone bench on the left side of the yard.
“Xue’er, what happened to you?” Freak asked with concern after walking over from the other side. Xue’er doesn’t seem to be in a good mood!
“I wanted Guo Yong and Guo Qiang to leave first, but I didn’t manage to do it. I underestimated their shamelessness,” Leng Ruoxue said helplessly, her beautiful face full of worry. Alas! How can I get those two to leave on their own? She didn’t want them to get involved in this matter. After all, the Artificer Association was different from the Great Families and the imperial families.
“Why don’t I just chase them away?” Freak suggested. Let him be the villain since Xue’er was embarrassed.
Leng Ruoxue frowned slightly and said after some thought, “Forget it. They can stay if they want. But we can’t let them know about this.”
“Xue’er, actually… if the Artificer Association can become our ally, the Xu family will be much easier to deal with,” Freak reminded.
The Artificer Association was a formidable force! As long as the Artificer Association roared, many powerhouses would be willing to work for them. Of course, it was the same for the Alchemist Association and the Beast Trainer Association. The three major associations might not seem to be very strong on the surface, but their hidden strength was unfathomable.
“Freak, I don’t want them to get involved.”
In Leng Ruoxue’s heart, her impression of the Artificer Association was much better than that of the Alchemist Association and the Beast Trainer Association. Moreover, she was very clear that as long as she said a word, Guo Yong and Guo Qiang would definitely not hesitate to side with her. But she felt that as an artificer, it was enough to focus on refining artifacts. There was no need to be embroiled in all these conspiracies. Moreover, she was afraid that this matter would be exposed, so she didn’t want too many people to know.
“Xue’er, not all artificers, alchemists, and beast trainers are as virtuous as you think. Most of them still value fame and fortune,” Freak explained. In this world, people lived for fame, fortune, and status. It was simply impossible to transcend worldliness, and few people could do it.
“Let’s continue. Freak, let’s go to the palace!” Leng Ruoxue said. She had to see how the old man’s preparations were going.
Freak nodded. They sat on Quill’s back and flew toward the palace.
After they arrived at the imperial palace, an old voice sounded just as Quill landed in the remote palace.
“Little girl, you’re here.”
“Old man, how are the preparations going?” Leng Ruoxue asked bluntly after jumping off Quill’s back.
“They’re almost done. What about your end?” the old man asked with concern. He had everything ready and just needed the time to be right.
“Old man, I have something important to tell you,” Leng Ruoxue whispered after looking around cautiously.
“Little girl, can you not scare me? I’m old, and my heart can’t take it.” Seeing Leng Ruoxue being so careful, the old man couldn’t take it anymore. What’s so important that you’re being so careful?
“Let’s talk in the inner hall!” Leng Ruoxue reminded. Hmph! Stinky old man, I’m going to scare you to death!
“Let’s go!” The old man led Leng Ruoxue and Freak into the inner hall.
“Little girl, can you tell me now?” the old man said anxiously. This girl is really too evil. She deliberately whetted my appetite. How despicable!
“Grandpa, I’m going to see Guo Yong and Guo Qiang.” Leng Ruoxue nodded and left Leng Qingtian’s study.
Leng Ruoxue arrived at the yard where Guo Yong and his brother were staying. Just as she entered the yard, she saw the two brothers arguing with their faces red, and they were about to start a fight…
