Xu Fan felt a bit regretful as he was saying goodbye to the young couple. The materials for the two magical instruments were not particularly precious, but refining them was the most troublesome part.
“I will leave the sect on the 15th of next month to attend their wedding.”
“It’s my first time travelling far away, I should prepare.” Xu Fan said, looking at the invitation in his hand.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Pang Fu.
The next day, Xu Fan first went to the alliance base, which had been renamed the Chamber of Commerce. Pang Fu had been waiting outside the door for a long time.
After three years of development, the Chamber of Commerce established by Pang Fu had become a well-known Chamber of Commerce in the Outer Sect. It was said that it enshrined an Alchemy Master, and there might be high-quality elixirs suitable for Qi Refining stage inside the Chamber of Commerce.
There was also a Refining Grandmaster. As long as the conditions were met, the grandmaster could customize a magical instrument for you, which would definitely not be inferior to ordinary fine artifacts.
Because the Chamber of Commerce had the two masters, the number of its direct personnel had now grown to over 10,000.
In the Guest Reception Room, Pang Fu respectfully handed a Storage Bag to Xu Fan.
“Master Xu, someone from the Refining Equipment Peak wants to ask you to join them to maintain the Floating Skyships,” said Pang Fu respectfully. He had no choice but to be respectful, as Xu Fan was the main pillar of the official Chamber of Commerce now.
It could be said that half of the Chamber of Commerce’s development was attributed to the two mysterious masters, one of whom was right in front of him – Xu Fan.
“Hmm, I’ll go, but I can’t go as the Artifact Refiner of the Chamber of Commerce. My reputation is too loud.”
“I understand.” Pang Fu nodded.
“By the way, our Sect’s newly-promoted Celestial Favorite wants to commission you to refine a treasure artifact. Do you want to take this commission?” Pang Fu continued.
“What artifact?”
Will the protagonist produce magical treasures?
“What artifact, and what reward?”
“A sword box that can hold 100 flying swords, and its grade must be a treasure artifact.”
“The rewards are a piece of Soul Iron that you have been trying to buy but haven’t been able to. The Soul Iron weighs about four pounds.”action
When Xu Fan heard that the reward was Soul Iron, he was immediately excited. This was an important material he had been lacking. He only used less than three ounces when refining the Jiaolong Pearl supporting magical instrument.
“No problem, what are their requirements?” Xu Fan said happily, feeling that God was taking care of him and that he was getting everything he wanted.
“The sword box should nourish the flying swords and increase their spirituality. Most importantly, the sword box should have a system to convert Spirit Stones into Spiritual Qi.”
“Also, there is another strange requirement: to not make the Flying Swords bored inside.” Pang Fu said with a puzzled expression.
“Not bored.” Xu Fan thought for a while, then understood what they meant.
“I can do it. I’ll make a list later. Charge this Celestial Favorite based on the value of the items on the list.” Xu Fan said confidently.
“Alright.”
After leaving the Chamber of Commerce, Xu Fan went directly to Earth Heart Square to refine some magical artifacts he would need for the trip.
A month later, a fully-armed Xu Fan walked out of the Heavenly Gate for the second time. The first time he had been out was to test the Jiao Soul Pearl.
Wang Yulun’s wedding was held in an Immortal City called Dai Ding City, more than 6,000 kilometers away from the Sect. Wang Yulun’s family was considered to be of mid-level strength in the Immortal City.
As soon as Xu Fan stepped out of the Heavenly Gate, he was about to take out his Lingfeng Boat and activate the invisibility function when he was interrupted by a rapidly approaching Escaping Light.
A handsome young man with a sword between his eyebrows and the demeanor of a carefree nobleman appeared beside the Lingfeng Boat.
Upon seeing this man, Xu Fan’s excitement about the trip was suddenly disturbed.
Why is it him? He can’t be going the same way, can he?
“Junior Brother Xu, it has been three years since we last saw each other.”
“After the Secret Realm, I wanted to find you and become friends, but I was always caught up in trivial matters.”
“I didn’t expect to meet you here today, what a coincidence.”
Ye Xiaoyao clasped his hands and said, looking at Xu Fan with genuine sincerity in his eyes.
He still remembered the warm words of encouragement during adversity.
“What a coincidence, Senior Brother Ye. I heard that you’ve become the pride of our sect. Congratulations.” Xu Fan said with a smile, clasping his hands. With such a sincere expression, it wouldn’t be right for Xu Fan to refuse someone who came from miles away.
“We don’t need to exchange such pleasantries between us.”
Ye Xiaoyao said, making himself comfortable on Xu Fan’s Lingfeng Boat.
“Is the tail wing of Junior Brother Xu’s Lingfeng Boat specially designed to increase speed?” Ye Xiaoyao asked curiously.
Xu Fan decided that before leaving the sect, he would definitely wear a disguise.
“I obtained this in a secret realm. The tail wing has added wind runes, which can increase the speed by a fraction at critical moments.”
“Senior Brother Ye, you go ahead to do your business first, lest it delays the main event.” Xu Fan said, fearing that the journey would be delayed if this guy didn’t leave soon.
“I’m going to attend a junior fellow’s wedding. What about you, Junior Brother Xu?” Ye Xiaoyao said, feeling a little pity that there was one less innocent and lovely junior sister in the world.
“Is your junior fellow’s name Wang Yulun?”
Xu Fan had a bad feeling.
“Haha, yes, are you attending too, Junior Brother Xu?”
“Might as well go together. Just so we can have a chat.” Ye Xiaoyao said, and a sword light shot out from behind him. A sword boat appeared next to the Lingfeng Boat.
“Junior fellow, ride my sword boat, it’s faster.” Before Xu Fan could agree, Ye Xiaoyao took Xu Fan onto the sword boat and gestured for him to put away the Lingfeng Boat.
I, umm…
Left with no choice, Xu Fan could only travel with Ye Xiaoyao.
‘Bang~~’
With a sonic boom, accelerating from 0 to the speed of sound in just 0.1 seconds, Xu Fan instantly added a layer of air shield around himself at that moment.
On the supersonic sword boat, Ye Xiaoyao slightly regretted opening up the protective shield.
“Sorry, Junior Brother Xu, I didn’t pay attention just now.” Ye Xiaoyao apologized, forgetting that Xu Fan’s cultivation level was only at Qi Refining high layer.
“It’s fine. It’s my fault for intruding.” Xu Fan said indifferently, having a bad premonition in his heart.
On the sword boat, Ye Xiaoyao started to attend to Xu Fan wholeheartedly, continuously offering top-notch immortal fruits and spirit tea.
“Enough, enough, Senior Brother Ye, don’t take out any more, there’s no room left on the table.” Xu Fan looked at the table full of spiritual fruits and said helplessly. This pig’s trotter was too enthusiastic.
The intimacy index had already reached Xu Fan’s alert line.
At this moment, almost at the same time, both of them looked forward.
Ye Xiaoyao turned into a sword light, rushing out of the sword boat.
“Junior Brother Xu, wait a moment. I need to clean up some bugs.”
“You vermin, this place is less than ten thousand miles from my Heavenly Gate, and yet you dare to be so presumptuous.”
Ye Xiaoyao stood proudly in front of the sword boat, holding his sword with five unparalleled flying swords revolving around him.
“Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth attributes flying swords. Is it because the pig’s trotter has compulsive obsession disorder?” Xu Fan thought as he looked at the five flying sword treasures surrounding Ye Xiaoyao.
“Ye Xiaoyao, you killed my Desire Demon Sect senior fellow. Even within the Heavenly Gate, you must die.”
As a soft and gloomy voice rang out, five Desire Demon Sect cultivators surrounded the sword boat.
“Damn, I knew nothing good would come from following a pig’s trotter.” Xu Fan thought with a frown.
