“Yes, yes, Jiuli, what do you think?” Zi Yunshan nodded as he spoke.
A twenty-year-old ninth-grade artifact refiner—this was simply a heaven-defying artifact refiner!
They had lived for so long but this was the first time they had encountered such a person.
How could they let Mo Jiuli slip away so easily…
No matter what, today, they had to establish some connection with this heaven-defying artifact refiner!
If it weren’t for the fact that Mo Jiuli’s artifact refining genius and level were too heaven-defying, Zi Yunshan and Lan Huashuo would probably have been fighting to take her as their disciple already…
However, Mo Jiuli’s artifact refining level was almost the same as Zi Yunshan’s.
Neither felt fit to become Mo Jiuli’s master, so they could only think of another way…
Seeing the eagerness in the eyes of the two men, Mo Jiuli understood their feelings very well.
She guessed that if she didn’t agree today, she might not be able to leave the Artifact Refining Alliance…
After some thought, Mo Jiuli said, “Alright, but I dislike trouble, so…”
“Don’t worry, little girl Jiuli, our Artifact Refining Alliance has been smooth and uneventful for thousands of years!
Heh heh, rest assured…” Upon hearing this, Zi Yunshan immediately smiled benevolently.
Yet, for some reason, Mo Jiuli felt that this old man’s smile was too glaring, as if there were some sort of scheme behind it…
Before Mo Jiuli could think too much about it, Zi Yunshan and Lan Huashuo exchanged glances.
Each took out half a jade pendant and then simultaneously handed them to Mo Jiuli…
Upon seeing this, Elder Bai’s eyes flashed with shock, and he looked at the two alliance leaders in confusion.
After being warned by a stern glance from the two men, he conscientiously chose not to speak…
Mo Jiuli did not immediately take the jade pendant; instead, she looked at them, puzzled, and asked, “What is this?”
“Ah, little girl, this is the symbol of a Minister Elder in the Artifact Refining Alliance.
It’s just that we accidentally damaged it, and it ended up …” Zi Yunshan explained with a flicker in his gaze.
Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuli glanced at the two men but still did not reach out to accept it.
She wasn’t a fool; although she hadn’t turned around earlier, she had seen the menacing looks they shot toward Elder Bai behind her…
Moreover, Elder Bai’s rapid breathing and his startled gasp clearly revealed his shock and emotional agitation upon seeing the items the two men had taken out…
Clearly, these two seemingly ordinary jade pendants had an extraordinary origin…
While Mo Jiuli was hesitating and reluctant to take the jade pendants, Zi Yunshan and Lan Huashuo, both of whom were very strong, decided to go all out…
Before Mo Jiuli could react, she saw a blur in front of her eyes, felt a prick on her fingertip followed by a flash of light that fell upon her…
When she looked at her hands again, the two halves of the jade pendant had fused into one, becoming a round pendant the size of a gold coin…
Then, under the watchful eyes of Mo Jiuli and others, the jade pendant swiftly landed on the back of Mo Jiuli’s hand, upon the purple flower-shaped tattoo.
After a flash of purple light, the jade pendant disappeared…
This scene took even Zi Yunshan and Lan Huashuo by surprise.
They stared at Mo Jiuli’s hand, wondering where the jade pendant had gone.
Could it have been devoured by the tattoo?
“Master, this tastes so good, I saw it and couldn’t resist…” Mo Jiuli also looked somewhat stunned at the back of her own hand, unsure of what had just occurred.
It was only then that Yun Xia’s voice finally entered her mind…
