"But speaking of which, besides the hammer, I also had some clothes custom-made by a tailor. You can try them on, Master Qian."
"Whatever." Bai Qian glanced at Ling Xi in the corner. This person had been fiddling with something in the corner since the beginning.
Perhaps noticing Bai Qian's gaze, Ling Xi raised her head, revealing her slightly chubby face, a hint of smugness on her face.
He took out a bluish-green jade pendant.
Bai Qian glanced at the jade tablet, then looked away.
There's no difference from before; to put it bluntly, it's still the authority of the River God.
"I already said, you can keep this yourself, I don't need it. Do I need to repeat myself a third time?" Bai Qian tilted her head as she looked at Ling Xi.
She doesn't want to touch divine authority for the time being. Although, in reality, with the ability to [avoid all taboos], the influence of incense offerings on her is negligible, or even nonexistent.
But she really had no interest in becoming a god.
This is completely contrary to what she pursued. Becoming a so-called god is like drawing a circle around oneself and imprisoning oneself, except that the prison of a god is larger than that of a hospital ward.
“However, I’ve made some slight modifications to this. Although it’s still authority, you don’t need to absorb it anymore. You can use it directly as a magic tool,” Lingxi retorted.
"Because of the power, it contains the moisture of half a river. You can control this river by manipulating this jade tablet. It can be used for both attack and defense. It is a magical artifact."
Bai Qian tilted her head slightly upon hearing this, her hair falling across her cheek.
He took the jade pendant from Lingxi and glanced at it.
"Then you can take it yourself." He tossed it back to Lingxi.
That's how it should be, but Bai Qian doesn't really need it.
Compared to her, Lingxi is better off keeping this thing in her current situation.
The situation of Chenghe God is unknown, but he has probably been corrupted by something strange, which is why he has to give up half of his power.
Bai Qian felt that it was better for Him to take care of Himself than to take care of Himself.
"Doesn't this make me look useless?" Lingxi was quite straightforward.
Bai Qian ignored her and jumped off the carriage with Pei Huan.
The rain had lessened a bit by then, so there was no need to carry an umbrella.
We arrived at a bright and spacious shop. The shop wasn't in a great location; it was situated in a secluded alley, but because of that, the shop was quite large.
The moisture did not affect the heat in the air; you could feel the faint heat as soon as you stepped through the door.
Everywhere you look, there are all sorts of unsharpened iron tools, mostly axes, kitchen knives, and the like.
A middle-aged man was sitting in front of an axe, examining it. When the two men walked in, he looked up at Pei Huan and seemed to realize something.
"Miss Pei," she greeted with a smile, her face beaming.
"Hello, Uncle Hong." Pei Huan greeted him with a smile as well.
"The one I entrusted to you before..."
"That hammer? It's already finished, it's in the back." The middle-aged man nodded.
"However, that hammer is a bit heavy, so it might be troublesome if you want to take it back."
"Speaking of which, I've always been curious about what you use this hammer for."
Bai Qian blinked and raised her hand.
"For smashing heads."

I'll post two chapters first. I'm still writing one more, but I might not be able to post it today. I'll try my best to write all day tomorrow and make up for all the updates I've missed.
Volume 1: Chapter 158, Bai Qian's Expectations
"This is it." The man led Bai Qian and the other into the room. The sweltering room was filled with many iron blanks, which looked like weapons that had failed to be forged.
There weren't any decent weapons displayed outside the blacksmith's shop, not even swords or knives. But inside the room, there were quite a few similar weapons.
In the center of the room, there was a hammer.
The hammer wasn't black; instead, it was entirely silver-white. The slender handle was adorned with light gold patterns, and the head of the hammer was engraved with some characters as decoration. The hammer wasn't particularly large by comparison; besides being slender, the head of the hammer was rather thin, slightly smaller than a normal person's head.
Of course, regardless of what the hammer looks like, one thing is certain: for a normal person, it would be difficult to even pick up the hammer, let alone swing it.
Bai Qian walked up to the hammer and stretched out her fair fingers to grasp the handle.
Amid the stunned gaze of the man beside him, he effortlessly lifted it up, so effortlessly that even his breathing didn't change in the slightest, as if he had simply picked up some chopsticks or something similar.
Bai Qian casually swung the silver hammer in her hand, and a turbulent current swept through the room, causing the weapons on the shelf to make a soft clatter.
As for the feel, it's just so-so.
Bai Qian didn't feel anything either, which was true, because in her perception, the weight of this hammer was no different from the other weapons, or rather, it was no different from a leaf.
This was not Bai Qian's illusion, because to her, the weight of the hammer was no different from that of a fallen leaf, and it had no weight at all.
Because of the effects of the [Bright Spirit Body], her physical strength is constantly increasing, and her acquired divine power is developing in an unpredictable direction.
But Bai Qian didn't find any opportunity to test the extent of her current power. Although she might not be able to reach the level of shaking mountains and shaking rivers as some rumors say, she could probably do things like throwing half a street with a single punch just by the wind from the punch.
With this kind of performance, even without using anything else, just relying on this body at this moment, he should be able to compare with Lady Bai Feng.
Most importantly, this body is still growing, absorbing the furnace fire within it with every breath, propelling it towards perfection, purity, and the ultimate.
Perhaps one day, the power of the physical body alone will be enough to crumple the entire world into pieces, like paper?
The middle-aged man next to her was looking at Bai Qian with a strange expression.
He crafted this hammer himself, and only he knows how heavy it is.
At the very least, even if both of them were to try and get moving, they probably wouldn't be able to.
Looking at the white-clad girl in front of him now was like looking at a humanoid giant elephant.
"Thank you for your help. Here is the payment." Pei Huan handed the man a bag of silver.
She was quite satisfied with the hammer. When she had the hammer custom-made for Bai Qian, she had specifically emphasized that it wasn't just about being hard; it also had to be aesthetically pleasing.
After all, if someone as perfect as our Master Qian were to wield something that looks messy, it would greatly spoil the aesthetics.
"Master, are there any other requirements? If there's anything you're not satisfied with, I'll have him change it." Pei Huan then said to Bai Qian.
Bai Qian shook her head, feeling that it was still not bad. After all, for her to have any weight at this moment, she would probably have to take the city gate panel and use it as a weapon to swing it around, and only then would she be able to barely have any weight.
"Then let's go. As for this hammer, I'll have someone take it for you." The carriage couldn't fit it.
"Let's go to the tailor shop. I've ordered some clothes for you and Miss Bai Yao. Would you like to take a look?"
"Okay." Bai Qian turned her gaze away from the silver hammer in her hand and nodded gently.
----
Compared to the blacksmith shop, the tailor shop was in a much better location, situated on the banks of the Cheng River. This bank was a rare quiet spot on the Cheng River. Most of the Cheng River that flows through Changcheng Prefecture was infested with demons, but there were some sections where demons did not pass through, thanks to the previous actions of the river god.
Many corridors and boats are scattered here, making it a rare bustling place in Changcheng Prefecture.
It was getting close to dusk, and the whole street was full of pedestrians. Various riddles and magic tricks were also on display everywhere.
Bai Qian followed behind Pei Huan, standing on tiptoe slightly, trying to see the surrounding scenery through the gaps between the pedestrians who were much taller than herself.
Lingxi had just left, saying she had something urgent to attend to, and that if anything happened, she should go to the cave to find her. In the end, she left the jade token behind. Bai Qian didn't know why she was so insistent on giving the token to her.
So right now, only Pei Huan and Bai Qian are strolling around here. Pei Huan has no interest in what's happening on the street. Having lived in this city since she was a child, she finds many things in this city boring and tedious.
Even the most beautiful fireworks couldn't compare to the smile of the person beside him, although Pei Huan had never seen her smile before.
Unlike Pei Huan, Bai Qian was very interested in these things.
Or rather, she's quite interested in places with lots of people.
After all, I had always lived alone before and had never encountered these things before.
Whether it's the riddles and lanterns on the street or magic tricks like fire-breathing.
I still lack experience. Before, the only things I encountered were doctors and medicine. After transmigrating, the only things I encountered were demons and strange occurrences.
I haven't seen many people.
"Um." Bai Qian gently tugged at the hem of Pei Huan's robe in front of her.
Pei Huan turned his head and glanced at it; it was a magic trick stall.
He led the way, guiding Bai Qian closer.
"This matter probably isn't very interesting for you, Master Qian, is it?" Pei Huan glanced at the magic show stall.
These are some very common magic tricks: fire breathing, breaking stones on one's chest, and acrobatics.
This is all fake; after all, if it were real, they wouldn't be setting up a stall here.
Compared to the people around her, she probably couldn't even compare to one of her fingers.
Bai Qian gently shook her head, quietly watching an actor exhale brilliant flames, the bright sparks reflected in her eyes.
She let out a soft breath and pursed her lips.
I feel much better now.
She had thought about seeing these magic tricks before.
Before, I only watched these things on screen, like fire-breathing and magic tricks, and I could never see them in person.
It's like you're out there running around, going wherever you want.
But how could this be achieved? It certainly couldn't have been done in the ward before.
Many things I want to see can only be imagined in my dreams.
Occasionally, I'll wonder if such a miraculous thing could cure my illness, but that's just a thought in my dreams. When I return to reality and face the icy white walls, I can only shrink into myself and can't bring myself to take a step outside.
And now, I'm witnessing this scene firsthand here.
My heart calmed down and I felt much more relaxed.
My once empty heart now has something more to it.
Something that can't be explained or described.
Or is it anticipation?

Waaah, I can't post anything for now. If you have any opinions, you can join the group and talk to the author. I also hope you can keep reading, keep reading QAQ. It's really hard for the author to get any feedback (T▽T)

Volume 1: 159. Loyalty...Flowed Down (Second Update)
"Master, please try it on." Pei Huan was holding up a moon-white long dress. It was made of light white silk with some light blue and white patterns. The dress was not complicated in style, but the few colors made it look particularly elegant.
Bai Qian was sitting in a chair, fiddling with the lock she had just bought. According to the seller, it could only be opened using a specific method, but after trying it, she couldn't find any trick.
I'm already considering just breaking it open. It would be easy to break open; I reckon a gentle squeeze with my palm would be enough to crush this mechanism lock.
She turned her head, looked at the moon-white dress Pei Huan was holding up, blinked, and thought the color was acceptable.
But as for skirts...
Bai Qian hadn't worn it many times; she used to wear hospital gowns, but after coming here, she wore robes.
"Let me help you." Perhaps realizing that Bai Qian might not understand, Pei Huan offered.
Bai Qian didn't refuse; she hadn't thought much about it and didn't notice Pei Huan's slightly guilty gaze.
She didn't feel anything, but she was clearly unaware of what the person next to her was thinking.
As the dress rustled against him, Pei Huan carefully helped the person in front of him put on the dress. His fingers touched the soft, white skin, which was as smooth as milk. The soft skin gave him a ticklish feeling just by touching it.
Being able to smell the delicate fragrance of a young girl, as pure as an ice lotus, makes one feel that no one in the world is happier than oneself.
She didn't have any grand wishes; for now, she probably just wanted to stay by Bai Qian's side.
Perhaps it's because just being by her master's side gives her an irresistible sense of security.
For her, I would give anything; I would give my life to carry out any order she gave me.
