The sun hung high in the sky, sprinkling down dazzling rays of light that enveloped the entire square.
Ling Xian had a smile on his lips, but the way he looked at Leader Si Ma was full of coldness.
Therefore, he suggested that Su Xiu and Sima Yun refine it again.
Apart from the Sima Clan's Clan Leader, everyone else agreed to his suggestion. Especially the Qin and Zhao Clan's Clan Leaders, who hurriedly nodded their heads.
This was because if there was no cheating, Su Xiu would definitely be the champion. The second and third place would be decided by the Qin and Zhao families. Si Ma Yun would not have a chance at all.
In other words, the Sima family would definitely be kicked out of the competition if they were to refine it again. On the other hand, the Qin and Zhao clung to their current positions.
To put it bluntly, Ling Xian's suggestion solved the awkward situation the Qin and Zhao Clan were in. Naturally, the two agreed.
"I don't agree. Why should I refine it again?"
Sima Leader stared deadly at Ling Xian, full of hatred.
He knew very well that Ling Xian's suggestion was directed at the Sima Clan. Naturally, he wanted to kill them.
"Why?"
Ling Xian shook his head and chuckled. He felt too lazy to waste any more time with this person, "I will let the Qin Clan Leader and the Zhao Clan Leader answer you."
As he spoke, he shifted his gaze towards the leaders of the Qin and Zhao Clans. His intention was clear.
Seeing this, the heads of the Qin and Zhao clans understood and spoke.
"This Young Master is right. Although it's impossible to find out who the culprit is, it's obvious that something is wrong. If we don't refine it again, how can we convince the masses?"
"That's right. Even if we agree, the citizens of the city won't."
The two of them spoke in a low voice. They had to do what Ling Xian wanted.
If they didn't agree to his suggestion, then one of them would definitely be eliminated. Therefore, they had to agree to Ling Xian's suggestion and they had to look at him gratefully.
"You!"
The Sima Clan Master was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He roared, "I don't care! It's already almost done! There's no reason to refine it again!"
"Then I ask Patriarch Sima to abstain." Su Qin's eyes flashed with ridicule. He felt proud and elated.
"That's right. The three of us have agreed to this Young Master's suggestion. You can either agree or forfeit."
"Forget about the fact that you're not a controller. Even if you were, you only have one vote. You don't have the right to protest."
The heads of the Qin and Zhao Clans echoed, their voices revealing a hint of coldness.
"Damn it!"
The Sima Clan Leader was about to go crazy from anger, but there was nothing he could do.
The situation was already very clear. In order to protect their own positions, the Qin and Zhao clans had no choice but to stand on the same side as the Su clan. Now that the three Controllers had reached an agreement, how could he resist?
"Make a decision, I don't have time to waste with you." Su Qin faintly glanced at Patriarch Sima.
This made the man even more sullen, but he could only endure it and grit his teeth. "I agree."
Hearing this, Su Qin smiled.
He looked at the Sima Clan Chief with a ruminating gaze and said, "If I were you, I would choose to forfeit. In that way, I would at least be able to save some face."
"Hmph, don't be too confident."
The Sima Clan Head coldly snorted and said, "Your granddaughter might not win, and my grandson will not lose."
"I'll wait and see."
Su Qin couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with this person. He shifted his gaze to Su Xiu and said with a smile, "Relax, don't feel pressured. Just bring out your previous standard."
Hearing this, Su Xiu nodded and opened the furnace again.
It was the same for Sima Yun.
The descendants of the Qin and Zhao Clan didn't reopen their furnaces. Because the treasures they were crafting were not abnormal, they didn't need to be remade. Plus, they knew their own capabilities. Even if they remade their treasures, they would not be able to compete against Su Xiu.
As for Sima Yun, it was even more impossible.
Out of the four of them, he was at the bottom and didn't even have the right to compete against Su Xiu.
Therefore, as time went on, Su Xiu's treasures were obviously suppressing Sima Yun's treasures.
However, the Leader of the Sima Clan did not panic. He sent a message to the man in black to help.
The man in black was unmoved at this. It wasn't that he didn't want to, it was that he didn't dare to.
Reality had proven that Ling Xian's cultivation level and skills with crafts were far above him. Therefore, why would he dare to help?
"It looks like he has been stunned by me."
Seeing that the man in black had no intention of helping, Ling Xian faintly grinned and no longer paid attention.
To him, the gathering of craftsmen was child's play. If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to repay the Su Clan, he wouldn't even have come.
"Dammit, why isn't he making a move?"
The Leader of the Sima Clan cursed under his breath. He was no longer as calm as before. As time went on, he was getting more and more anxious and sweat was pouring down his forehead.
His only hope was the man in black. If he doesn't make a move, Sima Yun will lose for sure.
"Hurry up and make a move. If we wait any longer, there's no point in making a move!" The Leader of the Sima Clan communicated through telepathy. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
The man in black, however, remained unmoved.
This made the Leader of the Sima Clan sweat profusely. He communicated through telepathy again and again. Sadly, all he got in return was an impatient statement.
"I won't make a move. I suggest you stop struggling. The person behind the Su Clan is not someone we can afford to offend."
Hearing this, the Leader of the Sima Clan froze. Then, as if he aged a few decades, his face was full of disappointment.
He knew very well how powerful the man in black was. To put it bluntly, he alone could wipe out the entire City of Crafts. If even he said he couldn't offend him, then how terrifying was the person behind the Su Clan?
At the very least, the Sima Clan couldn't afford to offend him.
Therefore, the Leader of the Sima Clan accepted his fate and stood there motionlessly.
After a while, Su Xiu and Sima Yun finished crafting a new Magic Treasure. Both of them were releasing extraordinary auras.
But it was obvious that compared to Su Xiu's Magic Treasure, Sima Yun's Magic Treasure was much weaker.
The Magic Treasures crafted by the Qin and Zhao Clan's descendants were the same. However, they were stronger than Sima Yun's.
This meant that the rankings had been revealed. Not only did Su Xiu not get eliminated, she actually won first place!
"Hahaha, good, good!"
Su Qin let out a long laugh. It was filled with joy and happiness.
All these years, he had suffered too much. Now that Su Xiu won first place, he could finally hold his head high!
He could truly hold his head high!
Su Xiu was the same.
She stood proudly in the square like a goddess, accepting the cheers of thousands of people and the cheers of tens of thousands.
At this moment, she was so dazzling. She was like an undying sun. She was so dazzling that it was unknown how many male cultivators fell head over heels for her.
Even the descendants of the Qin and Zhao Clan were looking at her with infatuation.
What could they do? Su Xiu was already a peerless beauty. After winning first place, she became even more capable and beautiful. Naturally, everyone's heart palpitated.
Immediately, compliments rose one after another, making the corner of Su Xiu's lips curl up. She revealed a smile that could turn the world upside down.
However, she wasn't smiling at everyone, she was smiling at Ling Xian.
If Ling Xian didn't make a move, she wouldn't have been able to become a high-level craftsman. She wouldn't have been able to accept everyone's cheers.
Therefore, Su Xiu searched for Ling Xian's silhouette among the crowd. However, she didn't find him. Instead, she saw his silhouette at the corner of the street.
This was just like the ancient poem says, when you're done, you brush your robe and leave.
