Ning Cheng didn’t care about Rui Si’s thoughts or attitude and said without hesitation, “I am naturally willing to help out for Fairy Tong Hua.”
Ruisi was furious, any of her guards, as long as she asked this question, would definitely say that although they wanted to serve Tong Hua, they were unwilling to leave her, Ruisi. This Ning Cheng was just a casual cultivator from the Mortal Realm, yet he was so unreasonable. If she had known, she should have taught him a lesson first, otherwise a casual cultivator from the Mortal Realm would still think that she, Ruisi, was an easy person to beat up.
“Then, thanks to guard Ning Cheng, sister Ruisi ……,” Tang Hua thanked Ning Cheng before looking at Ruisi with a smile.
Ruisi smiled somewhat unnaturally, “Since Ning Cheng is willing, then he will naturally be Sister Tong Hua’s escort in the future. When Sister Tong Hua doesn’t need him anymore, just let him come back.”
This time, Tong Hua did not say anything.
Ning Cheng sneered in his heart, at that time, even if he had not found the Darkness Attribute Rule, it was not something that a small Imperial Domain could bind.
After Ruis finished saying this, she waited for Ning Cheng to make a statement. What she did not expect was that Ning Cheng acted as if he had not heard those words and remained as if nothing had happened. With a great hatred in her heart, she could only casually say goodbye and turn around to leave in depression.
When Ruis left and Ning Cheng did not react half-heartedly, Tong Hua did not seem to be surprised, but casually struck out a few forbidden blocks to separate Ning Cheng’s room.
After doing so, Tang Hua then looked at Ning Cheng with a smile, “Friend Ning, if I’m not wrong, your cultivation level should be far stronger than mine. Moreover, you are not Ruisi’s escort either. In other words, there is a purpose for you to be Ruis’ escort.”
After being tricked by Tong Hua with his words last time, Ning Cheng knew that this woman was not simple. He wasn’t surprised and simply sat down and said, “Miss Tong Hua, since you know that I am stronger than you, you still dare to stay with me alone? Aren’t you afraid that I will make a move against you?”
Tong Hua smiled faintly, not only was she not worried, but she sat down opposite Ning Cheng and took the initiative to take out the teapot and poured a cup of spiritual tea for Ning Cheng before saying, “You won’t kill me, although you are slightly stronger than me, you may not necessarily be able to kill me. Even if you could kill me, why would you do so? Not to mention that once you do it, you yourself will definitely die.”
Ning Cheng didn’t say anything, he didn’t quite believe that Tong Hua really wanted to help her refine her weapon himself.
Seeing Ning Cheng’s silence, Tong Hua said again, “Your divine sense is very odd, last time you used your divine sense to spy on me, I almost didn’t notice ……”
“Just say what you have to say, I don’t like to babble.” As Ning Cheng spoke, he felt a slight tremor in the cabin, and he knew that the airship should be departing.
“Good, then I’ll be straightforward.” Tong Hua stood up, “What level of smithing can you achieve? How well can you recognise materials?”
Ning Cheng said in a light voice, “My level of refining is alright, but my level of identifying materials is even a hundred times better than my level of refining.”
Speaking here, Ning Cheng even pretended to be proud, “Even if the entire Bright Sky is better at identifying materials than me, there would not be more than a handful of them.”
Even though she knew that Ning Cheng was bragging, Tong Hua was still a little surprised as she raised her hand and grabbed out three materials and placed them on the table, “May I ask what these three materials are?”
Ning Cheng was a little surprised when he saw these three materials, because the first two of these three materials were extremely rare items. Tong Hua was only a Dao-shaping realm, and to be able to come up with such materials showed that the strength behind her was not weak.
“This is Evil Light Ghost Mist, it is relatively rare and is a material for refining top-grade Soul Devouring Magical Treasures.” Ning Cheng pointed at one of the grey fogs with a glowing light and said.
Hearing Ning Cheng recognize the Evil Light Ghost Mist, a hint of astonishment appeared in Tong Hua’s eyes.
Ning Cheng did not care about the expression on Tong Hua’s face and pointed at the second grey, unpleasant object and said, “This is the Que Lightning Underworld Fruit, people say that it is difficult for thunder dao fruits to exist in the Underworld, and this Que Lightning Underworld Fruit is really a product of the Underworld. In terms of value, it may not be as valuable as the Evil Light Ghost Mist, but it is even rarer. This is not a weapon refining material, but an alchemy dao fruit.”
Tang Hua was truly moved this time, in fact, as long as Ning Cheng could recognise one of the three, she would be extremely satisfied. After all, these three items she had brought out were all extremely rare, most people had never heard of them in their lives, not to mention seeing them.
And Ning Cheng had not even touched them with his hands and had actually recognised these two items.
“Brother Ning, aren’t you proficient in refining weapons? How come you even know alchemy materials?” Tong Hua was amazed in her heart, but her mouth was calm as she inquired. Unconsciously, she had already changed Ning Cheng’s title.
Ning Cheng smiled mirthlessly, “I can also refine some simple pills, I’m just not as good at refining pills as I am at refining weapons.”
Ning Cheng was not making this statement blindly, among his auxiliary skills outside of cultivation, the one he had studied the longest was the Dao of Formation, followed by the Dao of Dan and the Dao of Weaponry. To put it in perspective, after he had successfully refined the Creation Divine Spear, his Dao of Weaponry would not be weaker than the Dao of Dan at all.
“Good, then does Brother Ning know what this third material is?” Tong Hua’s gaze brightened even more as he pointed at the third clump of material and asked.
The third mass of material was grey with a slight pale blue tinge, and looked like a cut of bamboo, with elusive aura fluctuations.
Ning Cheng’s gaze fell on this material for a while before he said, “I know this thing even though I haven’t seen it before. If I’m not wrong, this should be a cloth cypress. I didn’t expect Miss Tong Hua to even have this kind of out-of-the-way material, I admire you.”
Bubai was a low-grade body-shaping material, and if the previous two materials were extremely rare, then Bubai was almost extinct. Sometimes not even a hundred planets could find a single plant, but the value of this material was extremely low. It can only be used for shaping the body of a low-level cultivator, and there are many after-effects after shaping the body. Therefore, there are few jade records of this material.
After hearing Ning Cheng recognise Bu Bu Bai, Tong Hua took a deep breath, she knew that the person she was looking for was Ning Cheng.
Before she had taken out the Bu Bu cypress, she had not expected Ning Cheng to recognise this material. When her grandfather had taken out the cloth cypress, one of the top-level artificer patriarchs of the Bright Sky had not recognised it either, while Ning Cheng had.
“Brother Ning, I want to apologize to you, before I thought you were talking big. Now I realise that what you said was the truth.” When Tong Hua finished speaking, he bowed to Ning Cheng and gave him a salute.
After giving his salute, Tong Hua then lowered his stance even more and said, “Brother Ning, I have a matter that I want to ask for your help. After I arrive at the Sacred Domain, I want to identify several materials ……”
Not waiting for Tong Hua to finish, Ning Cheng waved his hand to stop her words, “Wait, although I am quite good at identifying materials. I, however, have no intention of going to help you with your work, I have my own things.”
At this time, Tong Hua naturally did not dare to say that Ning Cheng was already her escort, she knew that Ning Cheng was definitely not an ordinary person. If it was really like what Rui Si said, would a casual cultivator out of the Mortal Domain be able to recognise something like Bubai?
Therefore, after Ning Cheng’s words were spoken, she did not get angry, but instead said sincerely, “I know that Brother Ning is also going to the Sacred Domain for something, and I still have a little means in the Sacred Domain. Please speak up, Brother Ning, as long as it’s not something particularly difficult, I believe I can still help you a little.”
Ning Cheng’s heart twitched when he heard this, and he said with a fake sneer, “That’s a bit big of a statement from Miss Tong Hua, isn’t it? If I say that I want the Light Origin Pearl, or even the Dark Origin Pearl, you can also help me a little bit? So it’s better to be practical and realistic in your words.”
Tong Hua smiled awkwardly, “That Dark Origin Pearl is the belongings of senior Nong Ximu, the number one powerhouse in my Bright Sky, and even the Holy Lord of the Bright Sky Sacred Domain can’t go and take it. As for the Light Origin Pearl, that has never appeared ……”
“Nong Ximu? Is it the number one powerhouse in my Bright Sky?” Ning Cheng immediately asked, he had finally inquired about the destination of the Dark Origin Pearl, but this number one strongest person in the Bright Sky, would he be a match after he recovered his strength?
Tong Hua nodded, “That’s right, senior Nong Xi Mu is exactly the number one strongest person in my Bright Sky, even my grandfather is no match for him. His contribution to my Bright Sky was very great, not only did he protect the overthrow of the Bright Sky, he also snatched back the Five-coloured Star Splitting Bow during the battle with the Dark Sky.”
“The Five-coloured Star Splitting Bow was also snatched back by Senior Nong Xi Mu?” Ning Cheng asked once again.
“Not bad, after senior Nong Ximu snatched back the Five-coloured Star Splitting Bow, he did not take the bow for himself, but handed it over to the Holy Domain. It is now sculpted in the Sanctuary Square, and this bow is pointed at Dark Heaven, so once Dark Heaven wants to make a move against Light Tomorrow, this bow will be the first to be unleashed.” Tong Hua explained.
Ning Cheng secretly sighed in his heart, Tong Hua really did know more than that Ruis. He also knew that the Five-coloured Rift Star Bow was not a decoration at the Five-coloured Rift Star Square, but a defensive magic treasure arranged at the Five-coloured Rift Star Square. It looked like he would have more trouble trying to get this bow.
Tong Hua continued, “After making such a great contribution, senior Nong Xi Mu refused the opportunity to become the Holy Lord of the Bright Sky Sacred Domain and chose to meditate. Unexpectedly, the Dark Origin Pearl appeared again in the Bright Sky, and the appearance of the Dark Origin Pearl once again led to a snatch and grab in the Dark Sky. Senior Nong Xi Mu was still injured and still came out to defend the honour of the Bright Sky.
As a result, in that battle, Senior Nongsimu once again killed several strong members of the Dark Heaven and grabbed the Dark Origin Pearl. Unfortunately, Senior Nong Ximu also burned his soul because of that battle, and his soul eventually flew away and he died in the Light Sky.”
Nong Ximu was dead? Ning Cheng looked at Tong Hua in confusion, Nong Ximu was dead, how come that Dark Origin Pearl was still in his hands?
Knowing Ning Cheng’s doubts, Tong Hua explained, “Although senior Nong Ximu died, he had a daughter. His daughter was called Nong Ximu and was so weak and sickly that she was unable to cultivate at all. To everyone’s surprise, Senior Nong Ximu gave this Dark Origin Pearl to her daughter, Nong Xifei. Therefore, this Darkness Origin Pearl has always been in Nong Ximu’s possession. Because of Nong Ximu’s contribution, the Sacred Lord of the Bright Sky was also extremely protective of Nong Xifei.”
Ning Cheng frowned slightly, this wasn’t right either, what kind of treasure was the Dark Origin Pearl. If Nong Ximu had fallen, wouldn’t his frail and sickly daughter be able to keep the Dark Origin Pearl?
