Lan Xuanyu smiled and said, "Welcome, Teacher Nana and Uncle Le. This is actually our first time having a meal together. You are all my most important elders. Let's toast with water. I propose a toast to you."
Saying that, Lan Xuanyu lifted the glass of water in front of him. Nana and Uncle Le naturally picked up their water glasses too, and the three glasses lightly touched each other. Lan Xuanyu took a sip, but when he put down the glass, he noticed something strange.
Uncle Le drank all the water in his glass in one gulp, which was understandable if he was thirsty. But what about Teacher Nana? Water was composed of water elements. How could it spill on her clothes?
"Teacher Nana, are you okay?" Lan Xuanyu asked hurriedly.
Nana waved her hand lightly and the water elements on her clothes were instantly stripped away and dissipated in the air. "I'm fine. Let's eat."
Lunch began. However, to Lan Xuanyu's dismay, what was supposed to be a lively and cheerful meal turned out to be unusually dull. Nana and Uncle Le rarely spoke throughout the meal and only answered in the simplest way when he asked them questions. This was completely different from what he had expected.
Lan Xuanyu had originally intended to introduce the two of them and even try to play matchmaker. But now it seemed that both of them were clearly uncomfortable with each other's presence. It seemed that they still didn't want to eat with strangers after all!
Lan Xuanyu had this thought in his mind and naturally felt regretful.
The meal ended with Tang Le and Nana seemingly not enjoying it. Lan Xuanyu cleaned up and said, "Nana, Uncle Le, do you want to rest for a while?"
Tang Le shook his head and said, "I need to hurry back and Soul Refinement is not easy. Lets start now."
Lan Xuanyu nodded and said, "Okay. Teacher Nana, why don't you rest in my room for a while, and Uncle Le and I will go to learn forging? Uncle Le has a concert in Heavenly Duo Planet in a week, so he can only stay for two days."
To Lan Xuanyu's complete surprise, Nana almost subconsciously blurted out, "I'll go with you guys to see."
"Huh?" This time it was Lan Xuanyu's turn to be surprised. Wasn't Nana somewhat repulsed by Tang Le? Why would she want to go and see forging together?
"With pleasure!" Before he could speak, Tang Le had already agreed.
Lan Xuanyu looked at the two again with confusion, realizing that he couldn't quite understand them.
What he didn't know was that when Nana heard that Lan Xuanyu and Uncle Le were leaving to learn forging, she suddenly felt an urgent feeling, a feeling of not wanting to be separated from them.
The three of them left the dormitory and walked side by side, with Lan Xuanyu in the middle and Tang Le and Nana on either side, heading towards the forging center.
Then Lan Xuanyu found himself helpless again as Uncle Le and Nana fell silent. When they were together before, they didn't talk much, but it wasn't to this extent! What's going on today?
As they walked, they suddenly met an acquaintance.
"Big brother, where are you going? Wow, are these Uncle and Aunty? They look so young! The three of you look so alike."
Coming towards them was Ding Zhuohan.
Lan Xuanyu chuckled and said, "What are you talking about? These two are my teachers, Nana and Uncle Le." Although Nana had given guidance to the seven members of their team, the other students had not seen her much.
Ding Zhuohan asked in confusion, "They are not your parents? But you really look alike! Hello, Uncle and Aunty. Uncle, why do you look so familiar?"
While they were talking, Nana and Tang Le both looked at Lan Xuanyu and the person next to him.
Tang Le looked at Lan Xuanyu's beautiful big eyes, the soft lines of his profile, and then at Nana's stunning beauty on the other side, and subconsciously thought, yes! They really do look alike!
Nana also happened to look over at him, she looked at Lan Xuanyu's handsome nose, tall figure, and the way he moved his hands and feet, especially the way he walked, which was almost identical to Uncle Le's. They really do look alike!
Four pairs of eyes met again, and they both saw the trace of doubt in each other's eyes.
"Ah! You, are you Mister Le?" Suddenly, the strange atmosphere was interrupted by Ding Zhuohan, who flew towards Tang Le with a red face.
"Mister Le, our whole family are your fans! Can you sign for me?" As he spoke, he produced a pen and paper out of nowhere.
Only then did Tang Le realize that he had not worn a mask and a hat when he came out.
Under the fierce gaze of Lan Xuanyu, Tang Le finally managed to send Ding Zhuohan away, and he put on a mask to cover up his celebrity face.
As Ding Zhuohan was leaving, he muttered to Lan Xuanyu, "You really look alike! If you didn't say it, I would have thought you were a family."
At this moment, even Lan Xuanyu became a bit curious. He looked at Nana and then at Uncle Le, did they look alike? Did he and Uncle Le, as well as Nana, look alike? Perhaps because they had known each other for too long, he himself did not have this feeling.
They arrived at the forging center and went straight to his own forging room. Lan Xuanyu brought a chair for Nana to sit on, and then he went to the forging platform.
"Uncle Le, how about a demonstration first?" Lan Xuanyu said eagerly.
These days he had also tried forging, and the success rate of Spirit Refinement had once again increased, reaching over seventy percent. This was simply unbelievable for a Rank Sixth Blacksmith. It should be noted that creating life through Spirit Refinement was not one hundred percent successful even for a Divine Blacksmith. He felt that he was really only one step away from breaking through to Soul Refinement.
Tang Le explained, "Spirit Refinement is creating life, and you have a natural affinity with life, so it's much easier for you to do Spirit Refinement. Soul Refinement is about giving this life wisdom, essentially elevating its level of existence. And in the future, with Heavenly Refinement, this life will become whole, no longer confined to the realm of metal, perhaps even transcending it. That's why adding fusion forging in the process of Heavenly Refinement is meant to make this created life more complete. The fewer the defects in Heavenly Refinement, the better the result."
Tang Le said, "Giving life wisdom requires a high level of spiritual power from us blacksmiths. This process largely requires us to carefully feel it and fully integrate our spiritual power into the metal, gradually raising its level of life from only instinct to have a certain level of wisdom. The higher the degree of wisdom, the higher the quality of Soul Refinement. Therefore, Soul Refinement is called so because it's like using your spiritual power to forge it, and the forging hammer is just a carrier of the spiritual power. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Lan Xuanyu nodded slightly and said, "I think I understand."
"Well, then pay close attention to my forging process afterward. I will slow down the speed and enlarge the different forging methods during the process," Tang Le said seriously.
Speaking of this, his gaze unconsciously glanced at Nana.
Nana sat in the corner of the forging room, listening attentively as if she was also there to learn forging. It seemed that she felt Tang Le's gaze and raised her head slightly, making eye contact with him. Tang Le quickly avoided her gaze, his eyes slightly flustered.
It was still Heavy Silver, and after smelting on the forging table, a piece of Heavy Silver slowly rose up from under the forging table.
The bright red Heavy Silver emitted a faint halo. Tang Le took the forging hammer from Lan Xuanyu and said, "There's nothing to say about the previous steps. I'll start now."
