Chapter 196

Chapter 196: Don’t you really want to kill Ming that much?

“Holy Maiden-sama.”

“Greetings, Holy Maiden.”

“Nice to see you, Holy Maiden-sama.”

“Greetings, Holy Maiden.”

“Wow, I was just wondering who this is? Isn’t this Her Highness the Holy Maiden ranked tenth on my Red Beauty List? Why does Her Highness grace my humble little city?”

In the Lord’s residence of Falling Star City, a woman walked out and teased, reaching out her hand to pat Mo Zhu’er’s perky butt.

Mo Zhu’er slapped the other person’s hand away directly and said seriously, “Don’t fool around. Prepare a room for me; I need to seclude myself.”

“Seriously, we haven’t seen each other for three years, yet you’re so cold to me.” The woman named Ruyan gave Mo Zhu’er a glare but didn’t continue teasing her.

“You all may leave,” Ruyan said to the maidservants.

“Yes,” several maidservants left.

“Follow me,” Ruyan swayed her waist, walked to a stone wall, moved a vase, and the bookshelf opened, revealing an entrance to a secret chamber behind it.

Ruyan led Mo Zhu’er into the secret chamber, which was decorated like a boudoir.

“This is where I usually seclude myself. There are magic arrays set up around here that can block all spiritual awareness. Even cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage cannot detect it.”

Ruyan opened a cabinet.

“Inside here are Qi replenishing pills, heart-stabilizing pills, and various other pills. If you need them, just take them yourself. No need to be polite with sister~”

“Alright, sister, you can leave now. From here on, I’ll handle it myself,” Mo Zhu’er smiled, no longer as cold as before.

“Hmph~” Ruyan pouted, “You’ve been so heartless after not seeing each other for years. After I provided you with lodging, you immediately drive me away. But well, I do like you this way. Call me if anything happens~”

However, just when Ruyan was about to leave the room, she turned around curiously, “Eh, by the way, why does it feel like you’re walking strangely? Is your foot injured? Should I get some wound medicine for you?”

Mo Zhu’er’s cheeks turned red, but she quickly steadied her mind and smiled, “No need, thank you!”

“Don’t mention it, what kind of relationship do we have,” Ruyan laughed twice and closed the stone room.

“Could she…? It shouldn’t be possible,” Ruyan glanced back at the tightly closed stone room, recalling her strange posture while walking, having a bold guess in her heart.

“It should be impossible.” Ruyan shook her head.

I must have thought too much.

This girl looks down on every man, how could she do such a thing?

Inside the stone room, Mo Zhu’er sat cross-legged on a cushion, took out the Mandarin Duck Cauldron from her storage bag.

Mo Zhu’er took out a short sword, cut her wrist, dripped some blood on the Mandarin Duck Cauldron, and began refining it.

A half-immortal weapon needs to recognize its master. Mo Zhu’er didn’t know if she could gain the recognition of the Mandarin Duck Cauldron.

But if she could become the owner of the Mandarin Duck Cauldron, then she could control it freely.

This Mandarin Duck Cauldron is a half-immortal weapon! It can effortlessly slay enemies!

And because she refined the Mandarin Duck Cauldron, even if both her and Ming entered the Mandarin Duck Cauldron simultaneously, she could still control the cauldron to kill Ming without being affected herself, and there would be no need for her to do that kind of thing with Ming.

Moreover, the “Cauldron” type of weapon is both offensive and defensive.

The large cauldron can completely cover oneself, blocking the enemy’s attack.

Mo Zhu’er’s divine consciousness gradually connected with the Mandarin Duck Cauldron.

The two mandarin ducks carved on the large cauldron seemed to come alive, leaving the cauldron and swimming around inside it nonstop.

Just as Mo Zhu’er was refining the Mandarin Duck Cauldron, scenes of everything she and Ming did inside the cauldron surfaced again in her mind. She was pressed against the wall of the cauldron by Ming. His broad, rough, and hard palms roamed over her body.

The more she thought about it, the more disturbed her mind became, and her breathing even became somewhat rapid.

“What am I thinking about!”

Mo Zhu’er took a deep breath, suppressing the uncontrolled memories in her mind.

Three days passed.

In the stone room, as the pair of mandarin ducks cried out, the two mandarin ducks flew down from the air simultaneously and landed at Mo Zhu’er’s feet.

“Go!”

Mo Zhu’er opened her eyes and pointed at the large cauldron.

The two mandarin ducks transformed into wisps of green smoke, returning to the walls of the cauldron.

The blood Mo Zhu’er had dripped onto the cauldron gradually manifested on it, eventually forming the shape of a bamboo.

The spiritual energy in the stone room gradually calmed down. Mo Zhu’er exhaled deeply, wiped the sweat off her forehead.

It was simpler than she imagined. This Mandarin Duck Cauldron has thus been refined by her.

She was still thinking that if she couldn’t refine it, she’d exchange it for something else.

Mo Zhu’er stood up, extended her finger, and lightly tapped the cauldron, producing a crisp sound.

The Mandarin Duck Cauldron kept shrinking, ultimately turning into a shadow and entering Mo Zhu’er’s spirit sea.

This is the benefit of refining treasures.

Once a treasure is refined, it can be absorbed into the spirit sea and doesn’t need to be stored in a storage bag.

Mo Zhu’er opened the cabinet, ate two Qi replenishing pills, then set up a magic array and placed a scroll in the center of the array.

Mo Zhu’er chanted the spell incantation.

After three breaths, a wisp of green smoke floated out from the scroll, and a phantom of a middle-aged man appeared above the scroll.

“Disciple Mo Zhu’er pays respects to Master.”

Mo Zhu’er bowed to the phantom of the middle-aged man.

The leader of the Black Lotus Sect calmly looked at Mo Zhu’er, “Wuming is dead, did you know?”

Mo Zhu’er was surprised, “Such a thing happened? I don’t know who killed our Holy Son of the Black Lotus Sect, but I, Mo Zhu’er, must avenge this blood debt!”

The leader of the Black Lotus Sect laughed twice, “Looks like you don’t know?”

Mo Zhu’er nodded, “Indeed, disciple doesn’t know.”

The leader of the Black Lotus Sect stared at Mo Zhu’er, “If you don’t know, then you don’t know. Wuming is dead; it’s already good enough that you don’t drink a few cups of wine to celebrate, let alone seek revenge.”

Leader of the Black Lotus Sect, “How about that Ming? Did you kill him?”

Mo Zhu’er shook her head, “Reporting to the Sect Leader, Ming practices both physical arts and cultivation. His Martial Artist realm has reached the Heroic Soul Realm, and his Qi Practitioner realm has reached the Sea Observing Realm. The strength of both realms is abnormal. With only myself, I can’t kill him.”

The Black Lotus Sect Sect Leader thought for a moment, “I will send three envoys from the main base to help you. Not just you, the other Holy Sons and Daughters of the Black Lotus Sect have also taken on the task of assassinating Ming. Don’t let others beat you to it.”

“Disciple understands,” Mo Zhu’er nodded, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

“How? Seems like you’re not very willing to kill Ming?” The Black Lotus Sect Sect Leader squinted his eyes.
