At the moment, the tall woman felt a little sorry! No matter what kind of person Xu Que was, it all boiled down to one thing; Xu Que was knocked unconscious because of her!
Thus, even if Xu Que was nonetheless shameless, she was embarrassed to ask any more questions. She immediately replied,
Since fellow cultivator has forgotten, I’ll explain it to you! We’re now in the Earth Continent that belongs to the World of Near Celestials, but the Earth Continent is only a general term for our realm. In fact, the Earth Continent is also divided into several Celestial Realms…

She could almost be sure that Xu Que came from the Xuanhuang Continent, which wasn’t an uncommon scenario. Hence, when she introduced the situation of the Earth Continent, she basically explained everything in detail. And Xiao Ru added some explanations to supplement too.
With their explanations, Xu Que quickly absorbed all the new information and finally got a preliminary understanding of the Earth Continent. Generally speaking, the Earth Continent was quite different from the Xuanhuang Continent.
Although there were many academies and sects in the Earth Continent and the academies attached great importance to the cultivation of disciples, similar to the Xuanhuang Continent, in terms of geographical divisions, the Earth Continent was much more complex than the Xuanhuang Continent.


It might be because the continent was too vast, so it was divided into six big Celestial Realms, which were managed by the six big Golden Celestials of the Earth Continent! Every Celestial Realm was very vast in area. The one Xu Que was located in belonged to the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm. The Zhen Yuan Daoist was in charge of that Celestial Realm. His cultivation had already reached the peak of a Golden Celestial and his strength was unusually formidable.
The tall woman and Xiao Ru were also in that Celestial Realm and they seemed to have powerful backing. According to Xiao Ru, the tall woman was the Second Miss from the Wind Chamber of Commerce. The president’s precious daughter, her name was Feng Lanwu.
And the Wind Chamber of Commerce also had a long history in the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm; it was tens of thousands of years old and a famous brand. Even the leader of the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm, Zhen Yuan Daoist, had personally visited the Wind Chamber of Commerce!
Xu Que felt that the Wind Chamber of Commerce wasn’t that simple. But he remembered the conversation between the tall woman and Xiao Ru and he suddenly smiled and asked,
Since your Wind Chamber of Commerce is so strong, why do you need to run out personally to find an Equipment Forging Grandmaster?


Because…
Xiao Ru was tongue-tied.
The tall woman named Feng Lanwu had a trace of defeat flash in her eyes as she shook her head slightly.
Fellow cultivator, that’s embarrassing. Xiao Ru only mentioned the past glory of the Wind Chamber of Commerce. Now it’s no longer famous and has fallen to a small local chamber of commerce.


I get it, Miss Feng, you don’t need to be so depressed. After all, time is cruel. If you look back at how many major forces have disappeared throughout history, Wind Chamber of Commerce, after so many years, is still towering like a giant today; it’s already a magnificent task!
Xu Que smiled.
Xiao Ru burst out with a chuckle,
I thought you were a fool just now, and I didn’t know you could talk like that; turning bad things into good things!

Feng Lanwu smiled, looked at Xu Que and said,
Thank you so much for your kind words, but fellow cultivator you have exaggerated your praises!


You’re welcome! You’re welcome!
Xu Que immediately waved his hand and said modestly,
I’m just telling the truth. An old and famous Chamber of Commerce like your Wind Chamber of Commerce must have gone through numerous crises, numerous adversities, and emerged stronger after each crisis. This is a test! Of course, unlike our Exploding Heavens Faction, it’s only 1 million years old. Since its establishment, it hasn’t encountered any difficulties. We’ve enjoyed all the glory along the way and have been strong all the time!




Ah?
Xiao Ru and Feng Lanwu’s smiles stuck on their faces and the corners of their lips twitched slightly. After all that lengthy speech, that fellow wasn’t saying anything courteous; he was merely waiting for the time to praise his own faction! But what was that Exploding Heavens Faction? They had never heard of it before and it already had a history of 1 million years?
Suddenly, both their faces had looks of extreme doubt; they affirmed that Xu Que must be exaggerating.
Even in the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm, some powerful and ancient forces had only a history of more than 100,000 years. That dude mentioned an uncommon faction’s name and claimed it to have a history of 1 million years. It seemed that he was boasting and fooling them!

Uh, don’t look at me like that. I’m telling you the truth. There’s no need to lie to you. Every one of us in the Exploding Heavens Faction is an elite and a proud son of heaven!
Xu Que said as he slapped his chest.

Psshh!

Xiao Ru burst out laughing,
Elite and a proud son of heaven? Does that include you?

You’re right!
Xu Que smiled and said,
I know what you’re laughing about, but it doesn’t matter. Believe it or not, it was merely a blunder just now. I’m actually very strong. If I’m serious, I can beat both of you in one move!

But in fact, Xu Que himself wondered why he was struck unconscious with a single move!
When the Magic Art of Feng Lanwu was about to hit him, he didn’t feel any danger. Even the power of the Magic Art was similar to those cultivators in the Human Celestial Stage in the Lost Land; it was very ordinary. But when the Magic Art fell onto his Dark Heavenly Sword, he was struck unconscious!
So it wasn’t that Feng Lanwu was too strong, but that Xu Que seemed to have some problems after he was injured; he was weaker now! He had just regained consciousness and hadn’t had the time to find out why.


But for Feng Lanwu and Xiao Ru, Xu Que was really weak. Whether or not he was knocked unconscious from a single blow, he was still a cultivator in the Initial Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage. He was a little inferior as compared to Xiao Ru who was in the Medium Stage of the Half Celestial Stage. Naturally, it was impossible to believe his words.
Someone in the Initial Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage could defeat a person in the Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage and a person in the Medium Stage of the Human Celestial Stage at the same time? If that wasn’t bragging, then what was?

Fellow cultivator, not far ahead is Li Qiu City. We’re entering the city and taking the Teleportation Spell to go home; we’d better let you off the Flying Boat here. We’ll leave our next encounter to fate!
Just then, Feng Lanwu said.
Her Soul Strength had always been in control of the Flying Boat, as she was about to reach Li Qiu City, she had to let Xu Que go first.
Although the Wind Chamber of Commerce was in a decline, she was talented in cultivation, beautiful in her looks, and had a reputation among the younger generation of cultivators. If someone saw a man in her flying boat, there would inevitably be gossip. And if that happened, Xu Que would surely be under the watch by those lurking in the dark too.
Hence, whether it was for her innocence or for Xu Que’s safety, she felt that she should keep a safe distance away from Xu Que; it could save them from a lot of trouble!
But Xu Que was unhappy to hear that.
If he hadn’t been injured, he would have left straightaway, but now he realized that his body might have problems. Moreover, he had just reached the Earth Continent and he wasn’t familiar with the place. In case of any trouble, he was afraid that he couldn’t even win over someone in the Half-Celestial Stage! If that happened, it wasn’t as simple as being bullied; he might die at any moment!
Hence, before finding out the reasons for his weakness and restoring his strength to its peak, he felt that he shouldn’t be left alone. Moreover, Feng Lanwu’s Wind Chamber of Commerce seemed to have some status and strength in the area. If he could be shielded under them temporarily, it would be the most appropriate and safe choice.
However…which excuse should he use to stay?



Wait a minute!

Suddenly, Xu Que seemed to have an idea. The corner of his lips raised and he looked at Feng Lanwu with a smile and said,
Miss Feng, I heard you mentioned before, you’re looking for an Equipment Forging Grandmaster?


Yes, we’re not going to hide from you. It concerned the life and death of me and the future of the Wind Chamber of Commerce. It’s a pity that we’ve searched countless places in recent years, and we’re still empty-handed!
Speaking of that, Feng Lanwu couldn’t help but looked defeated and slightly disappointed.

Oh, Miss Feng, you’re in luck today. I’ve good news for you!
Xu Que straightened his chest immediately, and his smile was akin to a man of great sanctity.
Subsequently, in the confused expressions of Feng Lanwu and Xiao Ru, he confidently said,
In fact, I happen to be an Equipment Forging Grandmaster!

You?


Equipment Forging Grandmaster?

Feng Lanwu and Xiao Ru were shocked, and they stared at Xu Que in a daze.
Is there a need to be so shameless?


You said you’re from the Earth Continent, we didn’t expose you!
You said you pretended to faint earlier, we also didn’t expose you!
You said you’re actually very strong, all right, we didn’t expose you then either!
But this time round, you have gone overboard! How could you say you’re an Equipment Forging Grandmaster? Refine, my ss!
Looking at the whole of the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm, who had ever heard of an Equipment Forging Grandmaster who was only at the Initial Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage? Without the cultivation of an Earth Celestial Stage, how could it be possible for him to support the consumption of True Core Strength, Soul Strength, and Taoist Connotation needed in the refining of equipment?

Uh, from your stares and expressions, I know you don’t believe me. Forget it, believe it or not!
As Xu Que finished talking, he proudly pulled out an ancient Bronze Lamp and played with it in his hand.
At that moment, Feng Lanwu couldn’t maintain her cool and she exclaimed,
This is…an Inferior Celestial Artifact?

A weak cultivator in the Initial Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage actually owns an Inferior Celestial Artifact? It’s really unbelievable!
Whoosh!
Xu Que didn’t reply. He waved his hand, like a magic trick, and took out a piece of golden rope and played with as if he was bored!

An…another Inferior Celestial Artifact?
This time round, Xiao Ru was staring with eyes wide opened; it was incredible.

They’re just Inferior Celestial Artifacts. I have so many of them!
Xu Que responded disdainfully, and then he added,
They’re my master’s failed creations.


What?
Feng Lanwu cried out loud. She was tremendously shocked.
These Inferior Celestial Artifacts are failed creations?
Then what’s the grade of a successful creation? Middle Grade Celestial Artifact? High Grade Celestial Artifact?
God, is this man finally telling the truth that his master is the King Refiner of the Inferior Artifact?
At that moment, Feng Lanwu could no longer maintain her composure.She immediately rushed up to Xu Que and said in an anxious tone,
Fellow cultivator, you…could you recommend your master to us?


My master? Sorry, he’s not in this realm. But you only need an Equipment Refining Master. Is it necessary to send my master here?
Xu Que winked and laughed.

Then…who should we look for? Your seniors? Where are they?
Feng Lanwu asked hastily.
She had spent many years searching for an Equipment Forging Grandmaster, but she had found nothing. Famous Equipment Forging Grandmasters were reluctant to help, and the Equipment Forging Grandmasters who were concealed were unreachable. It had almost made her give up in despair.
But now, Xu Que’s words had rekindled her hope.

Ha, ha, Miss Feng, my master only has one disciple. Don’t look only at my cultivations of the Half-Celestial Stage. In fact, I’m an Equipment Forging Grandmaster. Look at this if you don’t believe me!
Xu Que with a slight move of his wrist took out the Firestorm Wheels.

Middle Grade Celestial Artifact?

Suddenly, Feng Lanwu’s expression changed and she looked at Xu Que, gasping with astonishment.
As a Second Miss of the Chamber of Commerce, she had naturally seen a Middle Grade Celestial Artifact. But only the aces in the Human Celestial Stage or those in the Earth Celestial Stage could own Celestial Artifacts of such grades. And here she was seeing a dude at his Half-Celestial Stage taking that out from his pocket! How could she not be shocked?
However, she carefully recalled Xu Que’s words and found something was amiss. He said he was an Equipment Forging Grandmaster. How could he show them a piece of Middle Grade Celestial Artifact? After thinking about that, Feng Lanwu immediately returned to her senses and looked at Xu Que. If Xu Que dared to say that the Middle Grade Celestial Artifact was made by him, she would definitely dash up and uncover the ultimate liar!
Fortunately, Xu Que was serious and sincere in his deception this time; he wouldn’t commit such a silly mistake.
He put away the Firestorm Wheels and the two other Inferior Celestial Artifacts and smiled,
This Middle Grade Celestial Artifact was made by my master. I showed you to prove my master’s strength. Give it careful thought. If he’s so strong, but only accepts me as his disciple, how bad could I be?

Feng Lanwu and Xiao Ru were silent for a moment. It seemed that Xu Que’s explanation was pretty plausible!
If he was the sole disciple of a King Refiner of the Inferior Artifact, maybe he was also a genius in refining equipment. What a genius could accomplish shouldn’t be judged from an ordinary point of view. His cultivation of the Half-Celestial Stage might not be a disadvantage for him!

That…fellow cultivator, which grade of an Equipment Forging Grandmaster are you in?
After a moment of silence, Feng Lanwu finally asked since she was still dubious about his explanation.

Which grade do you need?
Xu Que asked instead of replying.

We need at least a Fourth Grade to help us!
Feng Lanwu replied.

I’m in the Fifth Grade!
Xu Que didn’t hesitate even for a second as he held out five fingers in an arrogant manner.
Feng Lanwu and Xiao Ru were staring with their eyes wide open again.
Fifth Grade Equipment Forging Grandmaster?
Is this possible?
They weren’t aware what the situation was like in other Celestial Realms, but they knew very well that in the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm, within the already well-known Fifth Grade Equipment Forging Grandmasters and beyond, they had at least a cultivation at the peak of the Human Celestial Stage; they were also known as geniuses in the field!
But now, a young man who was in the Initial Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage had labelled himself as a Fifth Grade Equipment Forging Grandmaster. Could they trust him?

Wait a minute, you say you’re a Fifth Grade Equipment Forging Grandmaster, then could you show us a Fifth Grade magic weapon you’ve personally refined? No, no, no, you should refine one and show us!
Xiao Ru collected herself and said.
Feng Lanwu had a sparkle in her eyes. She secretly reflected to herself that she was too anxious and missed out on such an important detail. All they needed was to see him refine something to know whether he was speaking the truth!

Refine one for you to see? Uh…it’s going to take quite a while. Forget it, let me be honest. I admit that I was really knocked out unconscious before, and that’s because I was injured, hence I can only create a Nine Star magical weapon now. But if I can recover from the injury after some rest, I can create a Fifth Grade magic weapon!
Xu Que spitted out half-truths. He was indeed a Nine Star Equipment Refiner and he could refine a Nine Star magical weapon.
However, after recovering from his injury, he could still only make a Nine Star magical weapon, unless he took advantage of that period of time to conduct research and learn about the knowledge of refining equipment and break through to a Fifth Grade Equipment Forging Grandmaster. Of course, as to whether he could succeed or not, Xu Que didn’t really have the confidence in that, after all, he had never tried before.
However, since he had already bragged about his ability; he had to give it a try. If he failed, he would have to use violence to solve their problems and he would help them in this way. After all, he believed that he would have returned to his peak by then!

You…how long do you need?
After much consideration, Feng Lanwu looked at Xu Que and asked with an expression of incomparable seriousness. She was pinning her last hopes on Xu Que. She could only hope that Xu Que wasn’t deceiving her.
Of course, even if he lied to her, she was ready for that too. It was because, before she met Xu Que, she already knew that the present crisis faced by the Wind Chamber of Commerce could not be resolved. By placing a trace of hope on Xu Que, it was…better than nothing!

I probably need…
Xu Que thought for a moment and then suddenly sat cross-legged on the ground.
Wait a minute, let me check where I was injured!

After that, he ignored Feng Lanwu and Xiao Ru’s looks of frustration, and he shut his eyes immediately! Next moment, Xu Que called out the System and explored his own situation in detail! It was all good before he decided to check, but he was astonished with his state when he checked!
His injuries far exceeded his expectations. Although his appearance and some meridians were repaired, his Dantian was in a mess. The six balls of light, which were originally created from five Celestial Spiritual Roots and a Thunder Spiritual Root, were mingled up into a huge mess and running all over the place in his Dantian. Every collision would cause his Dantian to break a little and then quickly be repaired by the System. As a result of this vicious cycle, there was no progress in his recovery, and he had been stuck in that awful state of health!
Fortunately, the System’s automatic recovery ability wasn’t shut down. Otherwise, he might have had to suffer from another serious injury, or even worse, his cultivations would have been deemed useless!

Dmn it, what sin have I done? Why do you treat me like that?
Xu Que immediately began to shed bitter tears; he felt helpless and distressed. Although he had encountered many difficulties before, generally speaking, it had been quite smooth sailing for him. But from the moment he entered the Celestial Burial Valley until now, there had been all kinds of disasters and hardships; it was sheer bad luck.

Fellow cultivator, how are you?
Just then, Feng Lanwu saw Xu Que open his eyes and she asked hurriedly.
Xu Que shook his head helplessly.
I don’t know what’s going on now. I guess I’ll have to wait a little longer to tell you how many days it will take!


Is your injury very serious?
Feng Lanwu asked.

It isn’t particularly serious!
Xu Que shrugged his shoulders.
It’s just that my Dantian is about to explode!
