"Interesting. This old man has forged countless weapons in his life, but I have never seen a weapon that I am unable to create." You can go ahead and call first, and I'll name a price when the finished product is out. "

Elder Iron's lifelong wish was to forge out all the weapons in the world. Now that someone had suddenly come looking for him but not for the sake of forging the weapons, although he felt uncomfortable in his heart, there was also a trace of anticipation.

"Alright, old man, lead the way!"

Bai Zhixi saw that the old man did not believe that you could forge a weapon and did not point it out. She had used her actions to prove that she had gained the approval of others.

"Let's go!"

With that said, he waved his hand towards the door. Soon, a man who looked like a waiter came out and pushed him towards the door.

"Old man, you …"

From the moment Bai Zhixi entered the room, he had been observing the room and talking to the old man. He had not realised that the old man's legs were actually convenient.

"What's wrong? Do you not believe that a person like me can fight a weapon?"

Elder Iron's eyes flashed as he rubbed his legs, but he calmed down in an instant. But Bai Zhixi found out, and thought that he mentioned someone else's sore spot, causing them to think of something sad. He awkwardly stood there.

"Old man, I didn't mean that. "I just thought that you could forge iron for someone else even though you are acting in such a manner. That spirit of yours is worthy of respect and admiration."

Although his life was not as good as expected, but to be able to support himself through his own hard work. Bai Zhixi admired this kind of person, and his good impression of Elder Iron increased by another level.

"Hey, where is he? He had to find a job to support his family. Forging weapons is the greatest wish of my life. I must learn to forge weapons in my lifetime. As an old man, I don't like to be condescended to others. The best thing to do is to be the best, the best in the world. Little miss, if you don't mind, please call me Elder Tie. "

Elder Iron looked at her. The aura he exuded was different from that of an ordinary girl, possessing an awe-inspiring aura. Furthermore, she had broken all the traps that he had discovered after dozens of years of research. Who would have thought that this girl would break it with just a single glance? Who was her teacher and what sect did she come from? Which family's daughter was she?

The more Elder Iron saw, the more satisfied he became.

"Elder Iron, I quite agree with your words." Humans must have a goal, and they must strive to achieve it. Only then would their lives not be in vain. If you don't mind, you can call me Lady Liu. "

Bai Zhixi smiled, feeling very happy in his heart. The reason Elder Tie could tell him his name was a form of acknowledgement towards him. In this world, one must have a few friends. Although there was a huge difference in age between Elder Iron and her, it was still a form of fate that they shared the same view of life.

"Look, here it is."

"Elder Tie brought them to a stop in front of the stone door built on top of the mountain. He saw the waiter push him towards the stone door on the right side, lightly pressing on the protruding tiger head and forcefully twisting it." Kacha. The stone door was instantly opened.

Elder Tie signalled for them to follow closely. There must be more traps hidden inside, so he couldn't help but to reach out and pull Lan Yi who was behind him. This caused Lan Yi to not know whether to laugh or cry.

Each part of the winding corridor had different mechanisms. The deeper they went, the more spacious it became. It was not as frightening and pitch-black as they imagined it to be. It was instead brightly lit, with the cave extremely flat. It was as if there was no way anyone could lead them into such a huge underground palace, and that they would die without a doubt.

After a long time, the rumbling sound of a rotating machine came closer and closer. The sound alone was terrifying. One could only imagine how many machines were operating.

"Miss Liu, I usually forge iron at the platform up ahead. Miss can go there and fight your weapons. I and the waiter will wait here."

Elder Tie stopped at a bright and spacious area, pointed at an empty area in front of him and said to Bai Zhixi. He was very curious as to why a little girl could make weapons.

"Wow, Elder Tie, I didn't think that you would have such a miraculous place, it's practically a paradise on earth. I am using your tools to make jewelry today, not the weapon you are talking about. This piece of jewelry is very special, but it means a lot to me. "Thus, it is not that I do not believe in your skills, but rather, I want to make it myself. It will be more valuable."

She knew that the reason why Thistle had agreed to let her come to her secret base was because of what he had done. But she didn't want to lie to Elder Iron and could only tell him the truth. She only hoped that Elder Iron wouldn't have any thoughts in his heart.

She looked around at the design of the mechanism and the various forging tools, and was amazed. Earlier, she thought that the ones outside were just there, but she didn't expect that they were just there to hide from the eyes of the onlookers. The real quality of the goods was hidden in a place that no one could think of.

"What?" "Lending me some tools is a thug's thing, you're not joking with me!"

Elder Iron looked at her with a joking expression, seeming as if he would scold her if she nodded.

But Bai Zhixi really nodded at him, causing his lungs to explode in anger. This girl was too scheming. It would be an insult to his reputation as a master craftsman if she were to tell him outside that she would never be allowed into this place.

"Elder Iron, don't be angry." I want to make jewelry that only you can make. "You wait here for me. After I finish doing it and show it to you, it won't be too late for you to scold me again."

Seeing Elder Tie's expression as if he was going to eat someone, Bai Zhixi knew that he was angry. There was no helping it, she had to ask around for a long time before finding a suitable place to do what she wanted. She couldn't let Elder Iron kick her out.

"Hmph, I will wait here. Let's see what kind of treasures you can make. If you can't answer my request, the fee will be very high. "

Elder Iron felt quite upset. He'd been played by a little girl. If she didn't succeed, if word were to spread out, then his illustrious reputation would be ruined. He couldn't let her off so easily.

"Alright, you can rest assured. You won't lose anything if I make this piece of jewelry for you. "

In fact, the jewelry she wanted was very simple. It was just a common bracelet, an exquisite ring, and a necklace.

"Miss, what are you trying to do? That's the only thing that the Madam left for you, so you can't smash it! "

When Lan Yi saw Bai Zhixi taking out her mother's only jade pendant from his bosom, he grabbed her hand and shook his head anxiously. This was the only thing that mistress left behind, if Miss were to smash it, how could she face the late Madam.

Lan Yi, since this is the only thing my mother left me, I definitely won't destroy it. I'll just use another method to destroy it.

With it by my side, after my transformation, I think it will be more valuable and protect me even more. "

Even without Lan Yi's explanation, she would not joke around with that thing, she just wanted it to become more valuable.

"Miss, this servant has no other intentions. "I'm just afraid that the young miss might not have any feelings for the mistress when she thinks about her."

Lan Yi lowered his head, unable to see the expression on his face. She had never had a father or mother since she was young. Sometimes, she would miss her family and could only rely on the bright moon in the sky to entrust them. Therefore, she did not wish for the Miss to be like her.

"I know Lan Yi is doing this for my own good. Don't worry, your young miss is no longer that fool, she won't do anything stupid. Get a handle on it and try to get it done before it gets dark. Otherwise, if we go back and get gossiped about, I don't know how to explain it. "

After saying that, she no longer paid attention to Lan Yi and started to look through the tools on the table.

Elder Iron's brow creased slightly as he listened to the duo's conversation. His hand tapped on the edge of the wheelchair from time to time, thinking of something, but he didn't speak.

At the moment, there was no one in the cave who could hear anything but the sound of metal being hammered, Bai Zhixi was completely immersed in his own work, standing at the table busily, with his veiled face faintly appearing and disappearing, like a spirit among flowers, making people unable to look away. Elder Iron and the others watched in a daze, no one making a sound, afraid that they would disturb her.

"Phew, it's finally done!"

Six hours later, with the sounds of the machines operating around him slowly calming down, Bai Zhixi finally finished his left arm. She had thought that it would take one day less to complete. She hadn't thought that Elder Iron's machine would be so impressive. It was actually completed in a short six hours, and it was even so perfect.

"Girl, quickly show me your jewelry!"

After looking through Bai Zhixi's methods, Elder Tie was dumbstruck. He had never thought that Bai Zhixi would use this kind of method to create a weapon for a woman, not even in his life.

Before Bai Zhixi could take it from her, she suppressed the excitement in her heart. Her hands tightly grabbed the edge of the wooden chair, and asked Bai Zhixi with a trembling voice.

"Elder Iron, you're a great Sword Crafting Master, don't you lose so much face?"

Perhaps it was Elder Iron's performance that was too exaggerated, but the attendant standing by the side couldn't stand it any longer and gave him a disgraceful look. He didn't want to meet Elder Tie's "don't speak if you don't understand" expression.

"Brat, what do you know? Shut up. "

Elder Tie slapped the attendant on the head. Although he had realized that he had been disrespectful just now, his expression did not seem to have happened at all. His gaze was fixated on the piece of jewelry Bai Zhixi was holding. This ornament could be considered a unique item, the number one in the world.

"Here is my ornament. "Elder Tie, please give me some pointers."

Bai Zhixi respectfully handed it over. Elder Tie was an expert at it, to be able to obtain his acknowledgement was the best.

"Good stuff, good stuff!" I didn't expect a little girl like you, who looks so weak on the surface, to be this skilled. This item was truly unexpected. Who would have thought that such an exquisite female accessory would be a killing weapon? Little girl, why would you think of such a thing? "

Elder Tie looked at the bracelet and the other accessories as he praised Bai Zhixi profusely. The way he looked at her was even more amiable now.

"Thank you for your praise, Elder Tie. I had originally wanted to make this thing on the spur of the moment, but I didn't expect it to be so successful."

Bai Zhixi did not directly answer Elder Tie's question, but the smart ones knew that it was not a sudden impulse, so they did not probe further.

"Miss, now that you have such a powerful weapon to defend yourself, you are no longer afraid of those villains harming you from behind."

Lan Yi said happily, his hands occasionally clenched into fists, as though he was bringing her harm.

"Girl, quickly bring it to me."

Elder Tie's eyes lit up when he saw the jewelry. He did not wait for Bai Zhixi to receive it, and directly placed the bracelet on her hand, nodding his head happily, as if he had brought it himself.
