Holding the space chat group, the cannon fodder female supporting role ascended

Chapter 981 A Dignified Departure
A mocking smile appeared on Wan Qiyin's cold face as she turned to look at Wan Qirui and said:
"Xiao Rui, you must remember that only when we are strong enough can we be our own masters. Right now, we have the inheritance to support us, and the family will definitely support us. But it may not be the case when they drain us dry. So we must always learn to keep something in reserve."

Wan Qirui wasn't naive; she understood her cousin's meaning and nodded seriously:

“I understand. We can give the family some benefits, but not all of them, until we can completely control our own destiny.”

"Don't worry, Sister Yin, I know what to do."

The two then went together to see Elder Wanqiyou, explaining how they entered the Inheritance Stele and mentioning that they had received help from Fairy Ranxi.

Wan Qiyou sighed again, his feelings beyond words. Four hundred years later, he realized the extent to which Ranxi had done for the Wanqi family. She had repaid the Wanqi family's kindness with her actions.

"I understand about this matter. For your safety, do not spread the word about receiving the inheritance. The family will increase its support for you, so you only need to focus on your cultivation."

"Yes, Elder You."

After discussing the matter, the two received a separate reward and returned to continue their cultivation.

Soon the elders and patriarch of the Wanqi family also learned of this matter. They were glad that the disciples of the Wanqi family had obtained the inheritance in the Fire Forging Secret Realm, and felt a little more grateful to Ranxi.

"It seems this ascended cultivator is grateful and repays kindness. If I had known this would happen, I should have completely brought her onto the Wanqi family's big ship when she was cultivating there. What a pity!"

As for what's a pity, everyone knows.

In fact, Wan Qiyou also had some regrets. He viewed ascended cultivators with the usual attitude of the Immortal Realm, wanting to obtain divine-level cultivation techniques from Ranxi, but he did not want to make any actual sacrifices. Because of the kindness of saving her in the past, he thought that when the time came, the other party would naturally offer up the cultivation techniques on her own initiative.

But the reality is that Ranxi gave the Wanqi family a gentle slap in the face. Now, not only does she not owe the Wanqi family anything, but the Wanqi family owes her a favor. Although Wanqi Ye and Wanqi Li perished, she protected Wanqi Yin and Wanqi Rui and helped them obtain the inheritance. She also destroyed the Jin family, a poisonous snake. Her actions were beyond reproach.

Elder Wanqitan coldly replied:
"What's the use of regretting it now? Back then, Ranxi only used the Wanqi family's territory for seclusion and didn't consume a single immortal stone from the family. Some people couldn't stand it and made sarcastic remarks everywhere. Now they've been proven wrong, haven't they?"

Don't say I didn't warn you. She ascended from the Weiling Realm. How could a cultivator with the courage to lead an entire realm to ascension be stupid, and how weak could she be?
Fortunately, the Wanqi family did not go too far and did nothing to harm the other party, otherwise things would not have turned out this way.

"Don't look down on ascended cultivators, and especially don't look down on ascended female cultivators. Ran Xi is a top-tier existence in the Wei Ling Realm. If you carefully study her process of ascending from the cultivation world to the immortal realm, you won't treat her so hastily."

Wan Qitan is the only female elder of the Wanqi family. Her cultivation is at the Luo Tian Shang Xian realm, and she is a person whose word is law. If she had gone to handle the matter of the immortal stone mine, the Wanqi family would not have regretted missing out on such a great help.

However, she was consolidating her cultivation at the time and had only recently emerged from seclusion. Furthermore, Wan Qirui and Wan Qiyin had told their families the truth about accepting the inheritance. After understanding the whole process, she was certain that all of Ranxi's actions were a way to break free from the control of the Wanqi family in the most dignified manner.

After learning about Wan Qiyou's actions, she was so angry she almost laughed. She thought Wan Qiyou was incredibly stupid, having completely missed the opportunity to win over Ranxi.

When Wan Qiyou was scolded, he simply stroked his beautiful beard in silence and did not respond. Could he say that he also regretted it a little?
The meeting of the elders ended in a somber atmosphere. Soon after, Wan Qiwei learned of Ranxi's actions from Elder You, which further confirmed his judgment. "Elder You, the Fire Forging Secret Realm cannot trap Ranxi; she must still be alive."

Meanwhile, Yunxi, whom Wanqiwei was certain was still alive, was miserably hammering a piece of refining material with a giant white hammer. At this moment, she was trapped in the core of the Forging Fire Secret Realm.

It took Yunxi four hundred years to finally fight the two Ice-Yi White Tigers to a draw, barely passing the test to enter the Ice House and begin receiving the weapon-refining inheritance.

The weapon that imparted its crafting skills to her this time was this giant white hammer. It had already developed sentience and claimed to be named Hammer Ice Wash. After verifying Yunxi's aptitude, it decided to reluctantly teach her the crafting skills.

Yunxi even rubbed her ears to make sure she hadn't misheard, which greatly displeased Chui Bingzhuo, who immediately flew in front of Yunxi and said:
"Little girl, you heard me right, it's me, Hammer, who will teach you."

Yunxi took a step back and said with a smile:
"That would be too much trouble for you. Just condense the inheritance into a ball of light and give it to me. I will definitely study it carefully."

Hammer Ice flew around Yun Xi once, then stopped in front of her and said:

"Don't even think about it. You're so young, what are you rushing out for? Refining weapons requires a calm mind and not being disturbed by external things. Only then can you make a breakthrough."

Before his former master perished, he dissolved his contract with me, hoping that I could take on a disciple in his stead and pass on all his skills. I will personally teach you; you should feel honored.”

Yunxi sighed inwardly, but still politely asked:

"Master Hammer, how long will it take my daughter to complete her apprenticeship?"

Hammer Ice Wash was quite pleased with this honorific title. He circled Yunxi once more before saying:
"That depends on your talent. However, based on your current cultivation level, it will take at least a thousand or eight hundred years to complete your apprenticeship. This is assuming you are exceptionally talented. So don't try to take shortcuts. Just follow me and learn weapon crafting."

Yunxi felt an urge to facepalm. She felt that everything in the Immortal Realm was measured in centuries. Fortunately, she was still young (Yunxi calculated that she was almost a thousand years old). However, she quickly dismissed the thought, resignedly bowed to Hammer Ice, and officially embarked on her life as a weapon-refining apprentice.

During the first hundred years, Yunxi studied all kinds of refining materials in the Immortal Realm. The strange and wonderful refining materials broadened Yunxi's horizons. Among them, ores were the most common materials. In the Immortal Realm, even plants could be used as refining materials.

Therefore, she had to memorize the properties of all existing refining materials and learn to select the best ones. Some materials may look similar, but their effects are vastly different. If she used the wrong material, it would lead to refining failure.

After memorizing these points, Yunxi began the first step of weapon crafting: hammering the materials to remove impurities. This required skill and a good feel for the materials; there were no shortcuts, only practice makes perfect.

At this moment, Hammer Ice Flying flew into Yunxi's hand and became her weapon-refining hammer. At first, Yunxi had some difficulty even just holding the white giant hammer.
