“Father, Aunt Mo is Mother’s close friend. She often comes to visit Mother,” Li Ling’er replied.
Indeed, their daughter was a true prodigy. Despite being in her early teens, she had already reached a level equivalent to the Peak Qi Refining stage and was rapidly approaching the foundation-building stage. Her extraordinary bloodline and excellent physique had given her a head start, as she had begun her foundational training at the tender age of eight.
Li Su estimated that she might reach the foundation-building stage before the age of 13. It was no wonder that those with Immortal Spirit Roots could live for a hundred years as Nascent Soul stage cultivators. Their daughter was exceptional, even if catching up to her father would be challenging, given his unique advantages.
“Aunt Mo?” Li Su looked at Auger Loli and then at his daughter. They were about the same height and had a similar youthful appearance, with Auger Loli having a more curvaceous figure. Nevertheless, it was not entirely inaccurate for Li Ling’er to address her as “Aunt” considering their age.
Li Su hadn’t anticipated that Auger Loli had become such good friends, even confidantes, with Bai Ling. Although Bai Ling had been frozen in the Immortal Sect’s ruins for tens of thousands of years, her actual age wasn’t very old. Her ability to become best friends with Auger Loli might be related to the fact that Bai Ling had retrieved a fragment of the sacred artifact during her last expedition and gained the recognition of the Sea Clan’s influential figures. As women, they likely had plenty to discuss, therefore, they became best friends.
“Let’s go, Ling’er, and take a look,” Li Su suggested. He concealed his identity by wearing the clothes provided by Bai Ling and then led Li Ling’er towards the . Upon entering, they saw Bai Ling and Auger Loli engrossed in conversation.
“Ling’er~” Auger Loli greeted Li Ling’er with a rare smile. This young girl, seemingly ice-cold wherever she went, appeared pleased to see her.
“Aunt Mo~” Li Ling’er responded with equal warmth.
“Ling’er, come, I brought you some treats,” Auger Loli said. She had also brought a gift for Li Ling’er on this visit.
Bai Ling’s attention was focused on Li Su, and she understood that he was trying to avoid being recognized by Auger Loli, whom he had pushed away in the past. While Li Su had helped them retrieve the fragment of the sacred artifact, he was still a human, and his union with Bai Ling and the birth of Li Ling’er could have repercussions when this information became known.
“Bai Ling, who is he?” Auger Loli asked, inquiring about Li Su’s identity.
“He is Ling’er’s father,” Bai Ling openly revealed Li Su’s identity to Auger Loli. Although Li Su was currently in disguise, it was evident that Bai Ling held him in high regard.
“I see, so you’re my brother-in-law. I am Mo Lin,” Auger Loli introduced herself, addressing Li Su as her brother-in-law. It was official now. Li Su had become her brother-in-law.
Li Su nodded to Auger Loli and then turned to Li Ling’er, saying, “Ling’er, let’s step outside for a moment. Your Aunt Mo needs to discuss something with your mother.”
“We’re all family here. No need to be so cautious,” Auger Loli added. While she might appear cold in front of strangers, her personality seemed quite friendly once you got to know her. Li Su had been waiting for that statement, and with Li Ling’er, he sat beside Bai Ling.
“They’ve been trying for several years but haven’t progressed much. Bai Ling, who gave you the fragment of the sacred artifact last time, seems reliable. Can you contact him again and ask for his assistance finding a skilled craftsman? The cost is not a concern for us, and we would also like to show our gratitude,” Auger Loli repeated, returning to the main issue.
Upon hearing her words, Li Su had a hunch about what she was referring to. Most likely, the Sea Clan had attempted to reforge the sacred artifact and failed, therefore, they were now seeking a skilled craftsman. Auger Loli probably hadn’t realized that the person who had given the fragment of the sacred artifact to Bai Ling was Li Su.
“Bai Ling, agree to her request,” Li Su telepathically communicated with Bai Ling, ensuring Auger Loli wouldn’t overhear.
After receiving Li Su’s message, Bai Ling hesitated for a moment and then said, “Alright, I’ll get in touch with him and see if he’s willing to help.”
Upon hearing Bai Ling’s response, Auger Loli smiled and said, “Great, I appreciate your help.” After a bit more conversation, Auger Loli left with Li Ling’er.
“Su, can you find a skilled craftsman? Reforging the sacred artifact is no easy task, even with the previous forging methods and key components. It’s a challenging endeavor,” Bai Ling inquired.
Li Su responded, “No need, I am a craftsman.”
“What?” Bai Ling couldn’t help but look at Li Su in surprise.
Li Su continued, “We can do it this way…” and then explained his plan. This opportunity presented a chance for Li Su to gain insights into the process of forging a sacred artifact. His current expertise in crafting artifacts was exceptionally advanced, but specific treasures required more exposure for him to understand them truly. The more he could interact with such items, the better.
