After finishing a cup of tea, Tian Lingzi picked up the teapot and brewed it again. Steam rose up and he enjoyed the refreshing feeling brought by the hot steam passing through his eyes.

Just at this moment, footsteps were heard from outside the door.

A thin figure walked out of the door and came to Tian Lingzi, bowed slightly and said, "Master, the Heavenly Stone has arrived."

Upon hearing this, Tian Lingzi immediately put down the teacup in his hand, supported his legs with his hands, and was about to stand up.

The visitor immediately came to Tian Lingzi's side, carefully supporting him, and continued, "Huan Peng personally led the team and delivered the Tianshi Stone to Senior Brother Sun. They also included a box of jade. They said they heard Senior Brother Sun was looking for jade everywhere, so they collected it specially to give to the teacher as a thank you gift."

Tian Lingzi listened to his apprentice's words with a frown on his face, and slowly walked out the door, feeling a little unhappy. "Sun Chou is a little too anxious. He easily revealed his intentions and let the other party find out that he was looking for jade..."

His tone was full of helplessness. Several of his senior disciples had been sent to various places, and the few left by his side were still too young and always did things without considering the consequences.

Still not steady enough, need to practice.

The young disciple who was supporting him lowered his head in shame, knowing that they had done something wrong, and did not dare to look at the master.

Tian Lingzi patted his apprentice's hand comfortingly. "You are still young. You will be fine after a little experience. Fortunately, this time only the Xiang family knew about it. It's not a big deal."

"Yes, Master, the disciples will be more careful in the future."

As they talked, they walked all the way to the valley behind the room.

The valley is not big, surrounded by cliffs on all sides, with only one small path passing through the mountains.

There are several man-made caves inside, and the heavenly stone is now placed in one of the caves.

When Tian Lingzi arrived, Tianshi was surrounded by several shirtless disciples.

"The Master is here."

"Master!"

"Master, be careful with your steps."

The crowd quickly made way for Tian Lingzi to go forward and check.

The small sky stone is pitch black all over, and its surface is covered with a layer of dark black crust, just like charcoal roasted by a fierce fire. Under the illumination of the fire, it faintly reflects a dim metallic luster.

It is covered with dense pits of varying depths and shapes, and there are many tiny cracks intertwined with each other, forming an intricate spider web on the sky stone.

Tian Lingzi picked up the iron hook beside him and smashed it hard at the sky stone.

With a loud "clang", the sky stone did not move at all, but Tian Lingzi's palm was shaken.

He nodded with satisfaction.

"That's it, open the furnace and refine the stone!"

"As ordered!"

After getting Tian Lingzi's confirmation, all the disciples were very excited.

Heavenly stones are hard to come by, and they rarely have the opportunity to refine divine artifacts themselves.

This time, they have to make good use of the weapon-refining techniques they learned before to refine this heavenly stone into a magical weapon.

"Pom Pom Boom Boom"

The sound of refining stones started again, the fire in the furnace was burning, and the surging heat waves were like a transparent barrier, impacting the surrounding air layer by layer.

Tian Lingzi looked up at the horizon, holding the arrowhead that Duan Yuan brought back last year in his hand, his eyes slightly narrowed.

This time, he wants to practice another piece of armor.

I don't believe it can be penetrated by this arrow.

"Master, what should we do with this box of jade?"

Tian Lingzi slowly tightened his grip. Hearing his disciple's question, he lowered his head to look at the jade at his feet. After a moment's hesitation, he raised his head and instructed, "Grind half into powder and blend the other half into the Heavenly Stone for refining."

"Disciple, obey."

This……

He meant well.

However, the main component of this jadeite is sodium aluminum silicate, and there are also some elements such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and chromium.

It is really not suitable for iron smelting.

It seems that if this divine weapon is to be refined, there is still a lot of work to be done...

I don’t know what kind of temper Xiang Yu has. If he knew, would he be anxious?

The fire in the furnace shines on the sky and the earth, and the red stars are scattered in the purple smoke.

The blazing fire sent sparks flying like fireworks, igniting the late summer and early autumn again.

Su Jinyue waved the fan in her hand rapidly and breathed heavily.

"Huh...it's too hot. How come this autumn heat is even hotter than summer?"

Coincidentally, Shi Nudan opened the door curtain, brought in a basin of ice, and placed it next to Su Jinyue.

"Master, His Majesty is worried that you can't stand the heat, so he specially sent some ice. Is one basin enough? Do you want me to get another one?"

Su Jinyue leaned over to the curling stone, sighed comfortably, and said, "No, this basin is enough. Do my mother and brother have any?"

Dan nodded. "We have everything. The engineers have already made a lot of ice according to the ice-making method passed down by the master. There is more than enough ice now."

"That's good." Su Jinyue nodded with satisfaction, "Let's make a smoothie."

Hearing this, Dan looked at Tan with some embarrassment.

Su Jinyue's body was too weak, and the doctors had specifically instructed them not to give her food that was too cold.

However, since their master looked so hot that they couldn't stand it, they really couldn't refuse.

In a moment, Tan had already thought of a countermeasure and gently advised, "Master, how about using some iced fruits? Pour some milk on them and mix them together. It will be sour and sweet and very delicious."

What she said was so interesting that Su Jinyue could only swallow her saliva and nodded repeatedly in agreement, "Put some dried fruits in it."

"Hey, I'll get ready right away."

So, half an hour later, the entire parade team was enjoying freshly made ice bowls.

Ying Zheng and his friends also had fruit milk tea with a tea flavor.

At the back of the post station, in the ministers' room, Li Si scooped up a spoonful of his own milk tea with satisfaction, savored it carefully, and then extended the spoon to his son's bowl opposite him.

Li Xian wanted to protect himself, but then silently put down his hands.

"Father..."

Li Si ignored him and just kept reaching out his hand.

"Have you, my child, been carefully checking out the various Salesian homes lately?"

Li Xian immediately straightened up and answered seriously, "My son noticed a few things were wrong during his recent inspection."

Li Si raised his eyebrows and motioned Li Xian to continue.

"Several orphanages were built in these counties last year. Logically, this should be a good thing, but what my son doesn't understand is that the people who built these ancestral temples are suspected of corruption. Are they trying to whitewash themselves by doing good deeds?"

Li Si swallowed the fruit in his mouth, looked up at Li Xian who was somewhat indignant, and spoke in a gentle voice.

"How about clearing your name? There are so many corrupt people in the world who hide behind the cloak of hypocrisy and do all kinds of bad things."

Li Xian became anxious and immediately asked, "Shouldn't we just do anything about it?"
