In Alchemy City, on top of an extremely tall ancient palace, there was a woman standing there quietly.
She looked into the distance, passing through the air and looking at the Alchemy Battlefield. When she saw Xue Ye offering his soul to the ritual implement, her body trembled. A ripple flashed through her eyes, but she calmed down in an instant.
After that, she walked out of the City Lord's Residence, treading on the void and heading towards the City Lord's Residence.
At that moment, everyone in the Armorer's Field was moved by Xue Ye. The gazes focused on Xue Ye even surpassed those of You Tu and Gongsun Ye.
Who was the person he said he liked and the sister-in-law Luo Fan mentioned?
Could it be that he had come to craft for the woman he loved?
Xue Ye and Luo Fan had just said that they wanted first place in the Alchemy Conference.
First place would allow them to marry You Xi, the daughter of the City Lord Office.
Just as everyone was thinking, a beautiful figure walked out from the City Lord Office. She walked straight to the top of the stairs and stood not far away from City Lord You and the others.
When she appeared, countless eyes fell on her figure.
The woman was dressed in a loose robe that wrapped around her body, obscuring her figure. However, she was tall and slender, exuding an air of nobility. Her beautiful face was cold and arrogant, giving off a feeling that no one dared to approach her, not daring to profane her.
This was a woman who was no less beautiful than Su Hongxiu, but she did not have Su Hongxiu's natural charm. Instead, she was pure and beautiful.
She was the daughter of the City Lord Office, You Xi.
Her eyes fell on Xue Ye. Xue Ye looked back at her and smiled. "You're here."
"Why did you do this?" You Xi asked Xue Ye. Her voice was cold and emotionless.
"Go back," You Chi looked at his daughter and said coldly.
However, You Xi did not seem to hear him. She ignored him.
The scene rendered many speechless. In the vast and boundless Alchemy City, the only person who would dare to disregard the Alchemy City Lord You Chi in such a manner was probably his daughter.
Who else would dare to do this?
"Because I want to fight for it." Xue Ye smiled and looked at You Xi.
"As expected …" Everyone's hearts trembled. Xue Ye and Luo Fan already knew each other. This nondescript armorer had come to participate in the Alchemy Conference because he had fallen in love with You Xi, the daughter of the City Lord Office. As such, he had come to compete for first place, even at the cost of his own life.
"I don't have any feelings for you. Scram now," You Xi said coldly to Xue Ye.
"Oh." Xue Ye smiled. "It's okay. It's enough that I like you. Besides, I won't leave."
As he spoke, the Ancient Book of Life Spirit continued to fly into the ritual implement. The golden scroll ritual implement became brighter and brighter. Only then did everyone truly understand the purpose of the ritual implement. It was for this moment.
In the final refining process, he cut the long brick into pages and turned them into pages of a scroll, refining them into a book.
His Life Spirit engraved the formation and fused it into the magical tool, resonating with it and refining it as one, offering his soul to the tool.
"Senior Brother." Ye Futian had been standing there, staring straight ahead. His Senior Brother, who had been so frivolous before, had suddenly risked his life to forge a ritual implement. This was too much of a shock to him. Was it just to marry You Xi?
What had Ye Futian experienced in the past few years? What had he and You Xi been through?
Hua Jieyu also stood up and held Ye Futian's hand tightly. She was also shocked. This turn of events was too shocking.
This kind of emotion reminded her of her past with Ye Futian.
"She likes Senior Brother Xue Ye too," Hua Jieyu looked at You Xi. Hua Jieyu glanced at You Xi. Even though You Xi was cold and emotionless, her woman's intuition told her that You Xi was struggling internally. She suppressed the turbulence in her heart and remained calm.
Dark red blood continued to flow out, staining Xue Ye's clothes red. It was a shocking sight. His aura was constantly weakening, as if an oil lamp was about to burn out. His Life Spirit was undergoing refinement, refining his own soul and merging it into a ritual implement.
But he still activated his Spiritual Energy, wanting to complete the ritual implement. Since he had come this far, he had to complete it no matter what, no matter the price.
A terrifying aura was burning. Everyone felt that Xue Ye's aura suddenly increased. It did not decrease, but instead increased, becoming stronger and stronger.
"He's burning his Spiritual Energy, releasing all his potential. What a crazy guy," Yan Jun said, looking at Xue Ye. Fiery King looked at Xue Ye and said. To be able to do this required courage. However, it was all for a woman. Even if the woman was outstanding and had a stunning appearance, was it really worth it?
You Xi's slender fingers trembled slightly. Her cold and arrogant eyes seemed to be melting, showing a trace of blood red.
"Enough," You Xi said to Xue Ye, clenching her fists.
"You still care." Xue Ye looked at her and smiled.
"You're an idiot," You Xi said coldly.
"You're a liar." Xue Ye was still smiling. When she heard his voice, You Xi could no longer hold back the tears that appeared in the corners of her eyes. They were crystal clear and slid down her face like water droplets, leaving a trail of tears on her beautiful face.
Seeing this scene, many people were moved. So, they already had feelings for each other.
You Xi naturally would not cry for someone unrelated. Clearly, they already knew each other. The words "idiot" and "liar" seemed to be cursing each other, but it was also a kind of flirtation.
The winner of the Alchemy Conference would have the right to marry You Xi. But before that, You Xi had already fallen in love with someone else.
If the winner of the Alchemy Conference was not Xue Ye, what would they do?
Therefore, Gongsun Ye, Chi Lian, and the others who had not yet completed the ritual implement did not look too good.
It was not just them. Even the City Lord You Chi did not look too good.
This kind of thing would obviously embarrass the City Lord Office and damage its prestige.
But the decennial Alchemy Conference had been a rule of the You Clan for countless years. They had hosted all the previous Alchemy Conferences and made it a grand event for the Barren State. Of course, they had to choose the most outstanding woman, even if he was reluctant to do so. Moreover, this was also for the sake of the City Lord Office. The winner of all the previous Alchemy Conferences was someone with extraordinary talent in armorer. This was also the best choice for the City Lord Office's women.
However, his daughter, You Xi, was exceptionally stubborn. In order to resist this arranged marriage, she did everything she could. Now, she had made a huge mistake.
At that moment, an extremely violent aura was released. Gongsun Ye's battle clone was frantically casting stronger matrices on the scroll. So what if he had to sacrifice his soul to the ritual implement? It was a fool's dream for someone who had just started on the path of armorer to think that he could get first in the Alchemy Conference at all costs.
Even if he had to sacrifice his life, it would all be for naught.
At that moment, Gongsun Ye was extremely angry. He had always firmly believed that he would be the winner of this Alchemy Conference. There would be no accidents.
He would enter the City Lord Office and marry the City Lord's daughter, You Xi. In the future, he would inherit everything in the City Lord Office.
However, everything that was happening now made him feel extremely humiliated.
"He's recasting the ritual implement?" Everyone's eyes flashed when they saw Gongsun Ye's actions. Gongsun Ye's ritual implement had not been successfully crafted, but it was close to success. Therefore, he could recast it. Now, Gongsun Ye seemed to have been provoked and wanted to craft an even stronger ritual implement.
Many people vaguely understood Gongsun Ye's feelings. He was a disciple of an armorer family with unparalleled talent. He was extremely famous in the armorer world, comparable to Di Gang in the world of cultivation. He was also the most popular person. If he entered the Alchemy Rank, he would be You Xi's future husband. However, it seemed like he was being cheated on. He naturally could not stand it.
You Tu looked at Gongsun Ye. Could the ritual implement he crafted be even stronger?
If that was the case, he had no hope.
You Chi hoped that he would get first. That way, the winner of the Alchemy Conference would not marry You Xi. Then, You Chi would naturally be able to control the situation. However, he probably had no hope of getting first.
"Condense," You Tu said. The ritual implement was formed. The nine dragons lifted the cauldron, swallowing and spitting terrifying light. A frightening power emanated from it. Then, the Nine Dragons Cauldron landed in front of him.
Chi Lian's heavy sword was also completed. More and more people finished crafting, but Xue Ye and Gongsun Ye continued until only the two of them were left.
Xue Ye's aura weakened. His Spiritual Energy seemed to have been used up. The ritual implement floated in front of him, the golden scroll shining brightly. However, Xue Ye's face was pale and bloodless. His Life Spirit had completely fused into the ritual implement.
Finally, he spat out a mouthful of blood. Unable to support himself anymore, his body fell backward. However, he said, "I'll leave it to you."
Then, he fainted.
Zhuge Mingyue's eyes were fixed in that direction. Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu's hands were clenched so tightly that they were sweating. You Xi's face was covered in tears and her body was trembling slightly.
"You're the jinx. It's my bad luck to have a senior like you," Luo Fan muttered. Then, his Spiritual Energy seemed to be burning as well. He pushed the flames to the extreme to complete what Xue Ye had failed to do in the end, and that was to form the ritual implement.
The pages of the golden scroll danced in the air. Each page contained the efforts of the two of them. Finally, when the golden scroll was closed from top to bottom, rays of even more dazzling light shone. Luo Fan smiled, then sat down on the ground. He looked at Xue Ye, who was beside him, and said, "Senior, I've done so much for you. When you marry your sister-in-law, remember to introduce me to someone as pretty as my sister-in-law."
Many people were speechless when they heard his words. This cynical guy was really optimistic about everything.
At that moment, an even stronger beam of light bloomed. In front of them, Gongsun Ye had also finished crafting his ritual implement.
Within the Alchemy Pillar, the hundred armorer masters had all finished crafting their ritual implements. In an instant, a hundred ritual implements appeared in the area, and every one of them was a top-notch noble ritual implement.
Next, they would be ranked and enter the Alchemy Ranking.
