Watch out! Something's wrong with this guard.

Chapter 137 Goodbye to the Old Blacksmith

On the first day after the first assessment, all the students went home to rest, while Lu Yunshi mustered up his courage and went to Lu Yunxi's house.

He was looking at the two talismans in his hand, hesitating whether or not to stick them on his body.

As for Tieba (a Chinese online forum), the young lady already knows about it; but if she doesn't use Tieba... she doesn't want to get too badly beaten up.

After hesitating for a long time, Lu Yunxi sighed. "Well, the young lady and I have been through life and death together, so she wouldn't hit me, would she?"

Lu Yunshi nodded, then stepped inside, only to find Lu Yunxi sitting in the courtyard, seemingly having been waiting for a long time.

Lu Yunshi blinked, immediately pulled out a lunchbox, and stepped forward with a smile. "Miss, I've brought you your lunch."

As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Yunxi's expression. Seeing no sign of anger, he felt uneasy.

Very good, Miss is in a stable mood today.

"Sit down!" Lu Yunxi said calmly, glancing at Lu Yunshi.

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Lu Yunshi quickly sat down, then opened the lunchbox for the other person, took out all the food inside, and placed it in front of them.

Lu Yunxi remained calm, quietly picking up her chopsticks and starting to eat. After a couple of bites, perhaps finding it boring or unpalatable, she suddenly spoke up.

"During the assessment, you put on a really strong act."

"Uh...is...is there?" Lu Yunshi smiled awkwardly, naturally knowing what the other person was talking about.

Lu Yunxi gave a cold laugh, then suddenly changed the subject. "Lu Yunshi, your cooperation with that woman is truly perfect. Do you know what I heard? Many people think that you, Lu Yunshi, and that Li Hongying are a match made in heaven."

"So? Do you want me to set you free and let you be with her?"

"Of course not. I haven't served you properly enough yet, Miss. How can I leave now?" Lu Yunshi said sincerely with a serious expression. "Besides, Li Hongying and the others have done a lot for me in the academy. If it weren't for them, it would be difficult for me to do anything for you, Miss."

"Really? I thought you always wanted freedom. I was going to let you go. After all, being a guard, you never know when I'd throw you away like trash," Lu Yunxi said with a smile.

"How could that be? Even if that moment comes, it will only be fulfilling my duty as a subordinate, and I will do it willingly," Lu Yunshi said with a smile.

“I have no interest in your promises, but I’ve taken note of that.”

After saying that, Lu Yunxi suddenly stood up and gave Lu Yunshi a provocative look.

“I’m upset, so I’m here to get beaten up.”

"Huh?" Lu Yunshi was stunned. How did it come to this? And they just let him get beaten up without even giving a reason.

As if she could see through Lu Yunshi's thoughts, Lu Yunxi said with a faint, cold smile.

"I've been thinking about it, and I don't really need a reason to hit you. I can just say so when I want to hit you, so you won't forget who you are all the time."

"...certainly."

Lu Yunshi nodded, accepting the attack with an open heart. He then limped out and, after leaving Lu Yunxi's door, tore off the two talismans hidden in his sleeve.

"As expected, we still can't trust our young lady's temper too much."

Lu Yunshi was unaware that behind him, a figure was calmly watching all his movements, revealing an angry yet helpless expression.

"As expected, I knew you were like this. I should have hit you harder, otherwise you wouldn't feel any pain and I wouldn't be able to vent my anger."

On the other side, Lu Yunshi left the academy with aches and pains all over his body and came to the old blacksmith's blacksmith shop. He saw the old blacksmith sitting at the table with his back to him, holding a book and reading it intently.

The dashing Long Aotian looked at Lili with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Why are you wearing Duoduo's clothes?

Lili smiled charmingly and gently pulled down her collar.

"What? Isn't this more exciting?"

Long Aotian stared at the other person for a moment, a satisfied smile curving his lips.

"You feel so hot!"

Then, Long Aotian and Lili rolled into the house. Just as they were about to perform the Yin-Yang Dao, a series of urgent knocks suddenly rang out, startling Long Aotian so much that he immediately shrank back.

Suddenly, the door opened, and Duoduo, who should have been killed by the two, appeared before them. She had transformed into a ghost immortal, coldly watching everything with her icy gaze, like a cold judge.

To be continued…

"Damn it, Duoduo, wait until Aotian and Lili finish what they're doing before you come back. I was about to take my pants off, and to make matters worse, you even cut off the chapter. You dog of an author, go to hell."

The old blacksmith threw "Duo Duo's Dark Adventure" to the ground, venting his inner resentment and pent-up anger.

"Luckily you didn't take your pants off." Lu Yunshi's voice came from the side, startling the old blacksmith so much that he almost shrank back.

"Ah!" Upon realizing that the speaker was Lu Yunshi, the old blacksmith breathed a sigh of relief and almost couldn't resist punching Lu Yunshi in the face to greet him.

"You little rascal, are you pretending to be a ghost in broad daylight?"

"It's better than people who stare at the young imperial uncle in broad daylight," Lu Yunshi said disdainfully.

"What little imperial uncle? That's proper, there's nothing like that in it," the old blacksmith said, his eyes darting around.

"I bet you're disappointed that it's all serious stuff." Lu Yunshi became even more disgusted. We're all men, we all know each other, why are you pretending?

The old blacksmith wanted to speak up and argue, but Lu Yunshi raised his hand to stop him. "Stop. I'm not interested in your idea of ​​taking your pants off in broad daylight. I'm here to get Lanlan."

Seeing that the other party was getting down to business, the old blacksmith was naturally happy not to pester them any further. He turned around, went into the house, and took out the bracelet.

"The materials you gave me last time were very good. I used them all as you suggested, and I even made a small upgrade for you. This thing will be more durable than before and won't break as easily. There's also something new; you'll find out when we get back."

"Oh, really?" Lu Yunshi immediately transformed the bracelet into a sword and examined it in his hand, finding it quite satisfactory.

As for where the materials he gave to the old blacksmith came from?

Didn't he get some funeral expenses from someone in Lijia Village? Those were all good things.

"Hey, if you ask me, as the weapon that I, the world's number one weapon refiner, repaired and upgraded, could you please not give it a name like Lanlan? I'm ashamed to even say it out loud." The old blacksmith suddenly suggested. When he learned that Lu Yunshi had named his weapon Lanlan, he was speechless.

"Hmm." Lu Yunshi shrugged. "If it has any objections, it will tell me itself, don't worry."

Hearing this, the old blacksmith's anger, which had just subsided, flared up again. How dare this weapon, which couldn't even pass the Xuan rank at best, speak like that?

"Alright, whatever you want. Pay up, you still owe me from last time." The old blacksmith sighed, too lazy to argue with Lu Yunshi.

"Hmm..." Lu Yunshi pondered for a moment. "Aren't you the number one weapon refiner? Why do you need money?"

"Is there any connection? Besides the materials you gave me, I added some things myself, and I didn't even charge you for those, only for the handling fee. You wouldn't refuse to pay the handling fee, would you?" The old blacksmith crossed his arms, still restraining his urge to start working himself.

"Well... alright." Lu Yunshi sighed, finally giving in, tossing the storage ring over before turning and leaving.

The old blacksmith scanned the storage ring with his spiritual sense, and his expression suddenly changed.

"This is... the complete 'Night Raid on the Widow Kingdom'? You're trying to tempt me with this, kid? What weapon refiner wouldn't resist such temptation?"

"...Fine, since you've already run away, I'll let you owe me one more time."
