The rag picking sister turned out to be a weapon refiner

When Hu Xingtong returned to the villa, he was greeted with cheers and congratulations from his fellow students.

After reading the memories of my previous life, I feel much more familiar with these people when I look at them again.

"Senior Sister, congratulations!" Xiao Yuheng walked forward and congratulated.

"Senior Sister, you are finally awake..." Tan Yuruo hugged Hu Xingtong and sobbed.

This girl wasn't so clingy in her previous life, why is she so clingy in this life?

"Relax, relax, I can't breathe." Hu Xingtong smiled and pushed Tan Yuruo. He didn't use much strength in his hands. He just felt that the scene in front of him was particularly warm.

Tan Yuruo was obedient. Upon hearing this, she let go of Hu Xingtong. Seeing that Hu Xingtong was in good condition, she took the lead and asked, "Sister, are you fully recovered now?"

"Of course. Not only has it recovered, but it has become even stronger. It's already in the early stage of out-of-body state." He was about to summon his sword to show off, but he suddenly came to his senses. His Qing Huan sword seemed to be broken. Now he no longer had the energy to show off.

"No, senior sister, you have reached the state of leaving the body so quickly? My junior sister and I are just in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul." Xiao Yuheng muttered, unable to understand why he could not keep up with Hu Xingtong's speed when the three of them were obviously of the same age.

"Be good, you are my junior brother after all." When he was in a good mood, he had the energy to tease others. However, after hearing what Hu Xingtong said, Xiao Yuheng became indignant. He shouted that he wanted to go back and practice as soon as possible and disappeared.

Then there were Tan Yuruo and Han Qianyu. They had also wasted time during this period. Now that Hu Xingtong came back, they had no more worries and just said hello and left.

Thus, only Hu Xingtong and Sun Ze were left in the lively courtyard.

"Junior sister, you have just reached a new realm, and you still need to stabilize your cultivation. I still have official business to attend to, so I have to leave as well." Sun Ze still took on the responsibility of the head of the family as always and gave instructions.

Now that they were all gone, Hu Xingtong was still a little confused. Just as he was about to say something, Sun Ze seemed to remember something and added, "By the way, when you have time, go to the Yujian Sect and Tianhun Sect to take a look. Senior Mu took Ji Changfeng back, and Gu Sihe took Gu Qingzhe to the Yujian Sect to recuperate. Master told me when he brought you back that day that Gu Sihe also suffered considerable injuries protecting you. He even sent someone to inquire about your condition a few days ago."

Thinking of Gu Sihe, Hu Xingtong remembered how she hugged him that day. This good friend seemed to have nothing in common.

"Also, since you are fine, go and see the master. He... never mind, you'll know when you see him for yourself." Hu Xingtong felt uneasy at Sun Ze's hesitant look, but seeing that the latter was unwilling to say more, he guessed he couldn't ask anything.

"I understand. Brother, if you're busy, please go first. I'll pack up and go pay my respects to Master."

After getting the answer, Sun Ze did not stay any longer, but raised his sword and flew away.

Thinking about the fact that his Qing Huan Sword was broken, he lost his natal sword, and had to spend time refining the weapon. He was so busy that he couldn't stop for a moment.

"Xiao Wuzi, where are the fragments of Qing Huanjian?" I lost consciousness that day and really didn't know where those things were.

[White Soul Grass, Blue Sky Bamboo, Vermillion Jade Spring Water, and the fragments of your Qing Huan Sword are all in the storage bag where you keep your important items. Also, Yan Hui and Xing Hui—they have similar names. They're both with Tan Yuruo, and they took care of you when you were unconscious. And Ling Xian—he went to the Wuji Volcano.]

"Why go there?" He should have sensed that he had woken up, so why should he go there?

[Mineral Bone Fire Body, are you aware that your current body is a complete combination of flame and metal? The contract you and Lingxian signed is the one I gave you, and it will change Lingxian's physical condition accordingly. So, in order to adapt to your state, he needs to go to the Wuji Volcano to practice.]

This reminded Hu Xingtong that Tan Yuruo and Ling Xian seemed to have signed an equal contract.

"Will Junior Sister be okay?"

[No, when you were unconscious, Ling Xian was afraid that he would affect Tan Yuruo, so he terminated the contract.]

Tsk, it seems that I have one more arrangement to make.

He found the one that belonged to Qing Huanjian among a pile of storage bags and poured out all the fragments. At this moment, Qing Huanjian had lost its luster and was as dim as ordinary iron.

[There is still a fragment within your body. The bones that weren't fully fused have been removed, and that fragment has merged into your soul, serving as the medium for you to communicate with the three-dimensional world. Therefore, if you later refine the Qing Huan Sword, you can try to imprint the sword within your soul.]

[Use yourself as a carrier to store the Qing Huan Sword. This way, when you return to the three-dimensional world, your sword can follow you.]

This is pretty good. Imagine playing with swords in the modern world, how cool!

"Okay, let's talk about this later. I'll clean up first and see my master."

……

By the time I had packed up and changed my clothes, it was already dark outside.

Hu Xingtong flew all the way to Tan Luo's residence before stopping.

I knocked on the door, but I didn't know whether Master was in retreat or out, as there seemed to be no movement.

[Your master is inside.] Chen Wu reminded him, as if he understood Hu Xingtong's thoughts.

"Enter."

The voice didn't seem as strong as usual, it felt a little weak and a little old.

"Master..." Before Hu Xingtong could finish his words, he saw an old man with white hair and a hunched body sitting in front of him.

The long green robe with water sleeves and the familiar features told her that the old man in front of her was her wise and elegant master.

"Master, why...are you like this?" Hu Xingtong couldn't bring himself to ask. In this world, the only people who could hurt Tan Luo, besides the Four Seasons Demon and Si Xu, were his disciples and himself.

She should have thought that Chen Wu, a life system in a high-dimensional world, did not have high spiritual power. In order to wake herself up and reshape a suitable body, she would need a person with strong cultivation. In today's world, the recognized number one person is none other than Tan Luo.

"No problem." The low and hoarse voice sounded like an old bellows. The word "no problem" sounded even more harsh to Hu Xingtong's ears.

Tan Luo's mission was originally designed to be just a guide for the disciples, an elder who could be sacrificed, and an elder who was kind to the younger generation. But now, in Hu Xingtong's opinion, the emotions of this NPC are really touching.

"Master, thank you."

What kind of emotion does the word "no hindrance" express?

"I remember you said that you didn't want to embark on the path of cultivation again in this life. Have you made up your mind now?"

The gratitude that had just surged up in his heart instantly vanished after being brought up about the past. Hu Xingtong looked at Tan Luo solemnly and said, "My words and actions have been inappropriate. I hope Master will forgive me."

"I have thought about the path ahead. My path lies in its origin, in truth, and in exploration. I am willing to give my all and continue on this path with unwavering determination."
