With this mineral that was so hard to come by, the master of the Lei family was also in high spirits and mentally at his best.
A few hours later, at the break of dawn, Master Lei finally finished forging the silver needles.
"Great! Terrific!"
The room erupted with a burst of delighted voices. When Master Lei came out with the set of silver needles in his hands, everyone could see their brilliant glow.
Shopkeeper Yue was wild with joy as he said, "Terrific! I really have to hand it to you, Lei!"
Master Lei looked up and smiled. Very triumphantly, he said, "Hahaha! Can't you see what a great job I've done?!"
General Ye said excitedly, "Quick, show it to the young master!"
"Alright!"
…
When the trio went knocking on Lu Jiu Que's door, she was reading the classic herbal books with great relish.
Yan Chai Hall was truly worthy of being called the largest medicine store in Fish Dive City. Inside, there were many books about medicinal and spiritual herbs to be found. Reading them made Lu Jiu Que even more reluctant to leave.
A night of reading allowed Lu Jiu Que to gain a preliminary understanding of the medicinal herbs of this world.
After sorting and digesting the information, she then combined her knowledge of the medicinal herbs of both worlds, but it would take her a little more time to fully note everything.
"Young Master hurry up and take a look! Come and see!"
"Young Master, come and see if you can use this silver needle or not!"
General Ye and Shopkeeper Yue took turns shouting, eagerly wishing that they could lift the entire roof with their voices.
Lu Jiu Que reluctantly put aside the classics and pushed open the door, walking out. The two men immediately went over to her.
"Young Master, take a look. Can you use this silver needle?"
The moment Lu Jiu Que saw the silver needles, her eyes lit up. Joyfully, she said, "These silver needles are simply fantastic, and the material is even more special. Which master's work is this?"
Master Lei had originally still been somewhat displeased. As soon as he heard the other party praise him like this, he bared his teeth in a wide smile right away and said, "You little punk. Cut the crap and drip your blood over this set of needles to proclaim your ownership over them!"
She was supposed to drip her blood over the set of needles to proclaim ownership over them?
Lu Jiu Que froze. In her memory, anything that required the user to drip blood on it to claim ownership meant that it had to be a spiritual tool.
Could this mean… They had refined her silver needles into a spiritual tool?!
She felt a swooping feeling in her heart. Lu Jiu Que silently bit through the skin of her fingertip and squeezed out a drop of blood onto the set of silver needles.
Instantly, the silver needles released a bright light that was separate from their original silvery glow, as though they had gained a life of their own.
"Ba-dump, ba-dump…"
Lu Jiu Que could even feel her heartbeat integrating itself with this set of silver needles.
Simply amazing!
Was this a spiritual tool?
The three men saw how calm and peaceful Lu Jiu Que's expression was. Apart from the compliment that she had initially given them, she had always maintained a manner that was neither haughty nor humble. It seemed that she wasn't overjoyed to the extent of letting her emotions run wild simply because she had gained this set of spiritual tools, so they couldn't help but look up to her even more.
This young man was truly worthy of being an apostle to His Excellency, the Son of God. Neither greedy nor superficial, his open-mindedness and verve were really at a level that ordinary people could never match.
After Lu Jiu Que completed the process of having the tool recognize its master, she put the silver needles away with a quick movement. Then, to Master Lei, she smiled and said, "Sorry to have troubled you. You've worked hard, my lord."
Master Lei almost froze in shock.
The smile was like a sudden spring breeze that had arrived in the night bringing thousands of pear blossoms to full bloom!
'Oh, darling me, this young master is simply too good-looking for words…' Even he couldn't help but swoon at the sight of him!
Lu Jiu Que went on to say, "We don't have much time. I'll administer these needles first to save them!"
With that, Lu Jiu Que entered the main hall again. Standing in the center of the crowd, she suppressed the surging emotions in her heart.
She faintly believed that with this set of silver needles, she could now use a needle technique that she'd had no chance of using in her previous life, the "Magical Needle of a Thousand Illusions"!
