The rag picking sister turned out to be a weapon refiner

"Oh, young people are so energetic..." Sun Ze and Han Qianyu sat directly on the snow, and couldn't help but sigh when they saw the three people who were still picking and choosing in the distance.

Along the way, Hu Xingtong stopped more than once to dig and pick up all kinds of things on the snow. She picked up everything, useful and useless. However, this process was undoubtedly tiring. Although Sun Ze and Han Qianyu were at a high level, they lacked energy and could not catch up with the energy of the three young people. They could only find a place to sit and watch the snow scene and watch them... picking up rubbish.

It seems that picking up junk is contagious. After following Hu Xingtong to dig up unnecessary things a few times, Tan Yuruo and Xiao Yuheng also became interested in it. They collected ice grass, jade and other things that were of no great use. They followed Hu Xingtong around, looking around, and seemed to have unlimited energy.

But Han Qianyu was sometimes curious about how Hu Xingtong had such good eyesight. She could easily find things hidden deep in the snow. Could it be that she had been using her spiritual sense all the way?

Hu Xingtong wouldn't tell her about this. Shortly before arriving, the system had issued a new quest: [Host, please complete the quest 'Special Treatment for the Boss's Family and Friends'. Please use this to craft personal weapons for Tan Luo, Sun Ze, Han Qianyu, Xiao Yuheng, Tan Yuruo, Gu Sihe, and Ye Nanhe. This quest has been completed exclusively for Xiao Yuheng. The quest reward has been distributed. Please continue your efforts.]

So, for the friends and family mission, the reward is not materials or something, the reward is the power of faith of the boss, woo woo woo, it's not worth it at all.

"By the way, Qianyu, do you have any extra storage bags?" Sun Ze asked.

Han Qianyu looked at him and immediately understood what he meant. She took out a brand new, bulging storage bag from her storage ring and said, "Why would I need any extra? As your senior sister, I haven't given you a gift yet. This is a perfect opportunity."

Hearing this, Sun Ze smiled and took out a storage bag from his storage ring. He replied, "It's the same as mine. I'll give it to her when the time comes."

"That's a coincidence. You can just wait for the third brother to give me the weapon and then give it to her." Han Qianyu was a little proud. She put away the storage bag and continued to look in the direction of Hu Xingtong.

Sun Ze frowned, not because he wanted to attack Han Qianyu, but because he felt that Gu Xing's weapon was somewhat valuable. "But how can you be sure that the Third Brother will definitely give it to you?"

Hearing this, Han Qianyu was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at him and answered with a firm tone, "I just think that Third Brother is a man of his word. If he says something, it means he will give it to me in the future. Although I also think Lone Star's things are too valuable, I urgently need something like that to help me comprehend the Dao." As she spoke, Han Qianyu looked in Xiao Yuheng's direction and continued, "The other day, I sensed the Dao of the thunder element in Fourth Junior Brother's staff and sword. The elemental power was pure and harmonious, as if it was innate. I felt it and even sensed a hint of its aura. I thought, if I could also have a weapon like that, I should be able to choose the Dao."

"Really?" Sun Ze confirmed in surprise. If Han Qianyu could have this feeling, then he could too.

Han Qianyu nodded, her eyes deep and long, looking in the direction of Hu Xingtong and continued: "Brother, did Master look for you before we set off?"

Hearing this, Sun Ze seemed to understand something and responded, "I have. My master told me that this experience will give me an opportunity to advance to a higher realm."

Han Qianyu was not surprised and continued, "Master also told me that my chance might lie with Xingtong. Xingtong is a great help in my choice of path. Master told me to follow my heart."

Sun Ze smiled with relief when he heard that. If all the opportunities were with Xing Tong, then the two of them would be very lucky. They were lucky to have met such a good junior sister, and they were lucky that this junior sister was so cute, which made him want to treat her better.

Continuing forward, the group gradually penetrated deeper into the snowy mountains. At this moment, the system suddenly reminded Hu Xingtong in his mind: "Xingxing, take out the Qi Gathering Domain Plate. There are some powerful monsters deep in the snowy mountains. They contain a lot of innate energy. Be careful to collect it."

Upon hearing this, Hu Xingtong immediately took out the Qi Gathering Domain Plate. Fearing that it would be lost, he used talismans to seal it on his chest. This way, he could not only absorb the innate Qi from the surrounding environment at any time, but also hide it to prevent it from being stolen by someone with ulterior motives.

The deeper they went into the snow-capped mountains, the colder the surrounding air became. At this time, the robes refined by Hu Xingtong came into play. Various colored spiritual lights emerged from the bodies of several people, wrapping them up.

"Third Senior Sister, this energy is so warm." Tan Yuruo reached out and touched some energy outside of herself, and was surprised to find that this power could cover the surface of her skin, just like liquid.

"It was only for a short time, because the temperature here changed too quickly, so the robe automatically entered the defense mode, which allowed you to see the liquid spiritual power. However, these spiritual powers are all my own strange fire, and there will be times when they are insufficient. I will replenish them for you then." Hu Xingtong introduced, his face full of pride and arrogance.

Several people couldn't help but praise: "Great! This way we won't have to worry about freezing in the snowy mountains."

Hu Xingtong was a little flattered by the praise. Who doesn't like to be provided with full emotional value?

At this moment, Xiao Yuheng, the funny guy who deviated from his character and had a lack of ideas, came out again, approached Hu Xingtong and asked, "Senior Sister, what does your strange fire look like?"

Hu Xingtong reached out and pushed his head, saying unhappily: "Get out, I won't tell you, this is my little secret." It was so funny, how could Hu Xingtong possibly tell her, the Nine Golden Cold Star Fire was the symbol when she refined the weapons, and it was also a logo method often used by Gu Xing. She didn't intend to reveal it in advance.

While playing and joking, they unknowingly walked to the edge of a cold pond. They stopped at the edge of the cold pond and looked at the endless water in a daze.

Han Qianyu pushed Sun Ze's arm and urged, "Hurry up and take a look. Is this the Ice Jade Cold Pond?"

Sun Ze finally realized what was happening and took out the photo stone. He compared it with the photo on it and after a while, he smiled and nodded to everyone, saying with certainty, "This is the Ice Jade Cold Pond. We found it."

"Wow, our luck is so good. We didn't encounter any monsters along the way and we reached our destination directly!" Xiao Yuheng instantly became like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, circling around the cold pond at a very fast speed, shouting as he went along.

Sun Ze and Han Qianyu were too late to stop him, and Xiao Yuheng's figure disappeared amid the shouts.

"Shit, where's Fourth Junior Brother? Where is he?" Hu Xingtong instantly noticed Xiao Yuheng's disappearance and immediately observed the surroundings vigilantly. It was snowing everywhere around the cold pond, and the vast expanse of white didn't look like there were any monsters there at all.

"Xingxing, there are unusual spiritual fluctuations around here. Even Xiao Yuheng, a Jindan stage cultivator, could disappear silently. Be careful." The system issued an urgent alert about the surrounding spiritual energy. Hu Xingtong immediately repeated the system's message: "Fourth Junior Brother, even a Jindan stage cultivator, could disappear silently. Everyone, be careful."

Sun Ze and Han Qianyu released their spiritual senses simultaneously, but they did not find any trace of Xiao Yuheng's aura wherever their spiritual senses passed. They only vaguely sensed the abnormal fluctuations of spiritual power around them.

"There are abnormal spiritual power fluctuations around. Two junior sisters, come over here!" Sun Ze's aura suddenly changed, and a long sword instantly appeared in his right hand. At the same time, Hu Xingtong also took out the Qing Huan Sword and pulled Tan Yuruo to approach Sun Ze and Han Qianyu in an instant.

The atmosphere was too tense, and for a moment there was a sense of tension.
