The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2845 I can teach you, but don't blame me if you can't learn it!

How did you get it?

Lin Chen blinked and casually replied, "By chance, we discovered the graveyard of the demonized crystal scorpions. When they are about to die, they run to the graveyard, and over time, they have all died there..."

Gong Jianying's eyes widened, her gaze filled with shock, yet also with a hint of strangeness.

Are you so lucky?
Even though she wasn't a weapon refiner, she could still sense the extraordinary nature of such a tail stinger. One stinger was already astonishing, yet Lin Chen had obtained more than a thousand.
Su Hao sighed: "This is luck, destiny. I've also encountered demonized crystal scorpions. Their strength is comparable to a Grand Luo Immortal, and some are even stronger than a Grand Luo Primordial Immortal. With your strength, you probably couldn't handle more than a few, but you got so many tail stings. What good luck!"

"Since you have so many tail spikes, I really can't help you with this. So, you want to learn how to make these tail spikes?"

Lin Chen nodded and said, "Yes, I won't be staying in the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm for long, so I'm thinking about whether I can learn to refine it myself. That way, I can refine it slowly when I have time in the future, without wasting time or bothering others."

"If the refining process involves the secrets of the Star River Sect, then disregard what I said. I'm still willing to lend you the Phoenix Flame for the competition..."

Su Hao laughed heartily: "You little rascal, you've put me in a difficult position. Do you think an old man like me would take advantage of a junior for nothing?"

Su Hao pondered for a moment before speaking, "You have Phoenix Fire, so refining this tail spike isn't actually that complicated. Even if you find an ordinary weapon refiner, they can refine it using their methods, but the quality will probably be much worse."

"If I were to refine it, I would use the 'Floral Refining Method' from the Hundred Refining Techniques, the supreme technique of my Star River Sect. It is a secret that must not be passed on, but it is generally not taught to outsiders who are not disciples of the Star River Sect."

"Personally, I don't really care about the outcome of this match, but it involves the reputation of my Star River Sect, so winning would be the best outcome. Your willingness to lend me fire is equivalent to doing my Star River Sect a favor, so I will pass on this magnificent refining method to you. Just promise me you won't spread it outside."

Lin Chen was overjoyed and quickly cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you, senior. I will keep my promise and never tell anyone."

Su Hao smiled and said, "Since you are valued by Master Taixu, you must be an outstanding person. I am willing to believe in you. However, I agree to teach you, but whether you can learn it depends on whether you have the talent for weapon refining. If you can't learn it, don't blame me."

Lin Chen laughed heartily, "If I can't learn it, it's because I'm not talented enough, it's my problem, it has nothing to do with you, senior, or the Hundred Refinements Technique."

Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Su Hao readily agreed, "Deal. You lend me the Phoenix Fire for the competition, and I'll return it after the finals. In return, I'll teach you the Blooming Flower Refining Technique. It's a deal."

Lin Chen nodded: "Deal, thank you senior, I got a good deal."

Su Hao laughed heartily: "It's a mutually beneficial arrangement, so how can you say I'm taking advantage? Speaking of which, you've solved my immediate problem. Now it's Dai Yunshen's turn to have a headache." Lin Chen put the Phoenix Fire into the porcelain bottle, exchanged a few words with the other party, and then handed the porcelain bottle to Su Hao.

Su Hao put away the porcelain bottle and asked, "Have you ever been involved in weapon crafting or array formations before?"

Lin Chen answered honestly, "I have a friend who is very skilled in array formations. I have spent a lot of time with him, so I have some contact with array formations, but I have not studied them systematically. As for weapon crafting, I have never been exposed to it at all."

Su Hao nodded, took out two jade slips from his spatial ring, and handed them to Lin Chen: "One is the basics of weapon crafting, and the other is a detailed explanation of formations. You need to understand and master the former completely. As for the latter, if you only consider crafting the tail spike, you only need to understand the principle that weapon crafting and formations complement each other, as well as the formations needed to craft the tail spike. You can ignore the rest for now."

"Once you've learned how to forge tail spikes, and finished forging all these thousand-plus tail spikes, you'll be considered a true weapon refiner. However, if you want to advance further on the path of weapon refiner, you'll need to continuously broaden your horizons, master more forging techniques, and refine more and more magical treasures."

Lin Chen accepted it: "Thank you, senior."

Su Hao asked, "Are you here to participate in the weapon crafting competition, or to attend Wanyan Bo's birthday banquet at the Xuan Kong Sect?"

Gong Jianying replied, "I'm here on behalf of my master to attend the birthday banquet; he's accompanying me."

Su Hao smiled and said, "Alright, after the competition, you can come find me and retrieve the Phoenix Fire."

"it is good!"

Su Hao smiled and said, "This place is not far from Xuanbai Valley. Since you don't want to be noticed by others, then you can go back by yourselves. I'll go first."

"Senior, walk slowly!"

Su Hao moved like lightning, disappearing in an instant.

Gong Jianying turned to look at Lin Chen, her gaze subtle, as if she were looking at a rare animal on the verge of extinction...
