Lu An did not purposely lower his voice when he replied, and because of this, not only did Fu Yueni hear it clearly, even Liu Yuan who was far away heard it as well.
Before the sky turns dark today?
Was this a joke?
Even Yao and Fu Yueni were startled. Although the days and nights here were longer, and an afternoon was equivalent to a day on the Divine Planet, it was still a little too fast. Even if it was refining pellets, it was impossible to spend such a short amount of time. This Origin Spirit Finger was not an eighth grade artifact, so how could it be refined so quickly?
However, Yao knew that her husband was definitely not a boastful person. On the contrary, he would always speak of the most serious results. For her husband to say that it would be completed before the sky turns dark, it meant that he was very confident, and the time might even be brought forward.
The facts proved that … it was indeed so.
Time slowly passed by. Many furnaces worked together, and after refining many materials, Lu An quickly entered the design and assembly phase. He repeatedly tried at an extremely fast speed, and used up quite a number of materials. However, he had plenty of materials, so he was not afraid of failure. More importantly, the designs in Lu An's sea of consciousness were completely logical, so failure was only a failure of some details, and not an overall failure.
After repeated attempts, when there was still an hour left before the sky turns dark, Lu An took a deep breath.
He spread open his tightly clenched hands in front of his chest, and at the same time, a surge of energy surged out from his palms. After separating his hands, an object floated in the air. It was very calm, and even had a luster to it.
It was a finger sleeve.
From the color of the surface of the finger sleeve, it was the same bright silver color as the Origin Spirit Finger … However, the similarities ended there. Other than the fact that they were both finger sleeves and were both bright silver, there was practically not a single similarity.
Yao and Fu Yueni looked at the finger sleeve, and then looked at Lu An with a dazed expression. Even Liu Yuan who was far away stood up, and looked at the finger sleeve with a startled expression.
However, just as the three women were in a state of shock, Lu An reached out his hand and held the finger sleeve in his hand. At the same time, he announced with a smile. "Success."
Success?
The three women looked at Lu An with even more shock. Could it be that this was not the prototype, but the final product?
Yao looked at the finger sleeve in her husband's hand, and did not know what to say. On the other hand, Fu Yueni didn't have as many misgivings as Yao, and she directly asked. "Young Master, isn't this finger glove … a little too different from the Soul Essence Finger?"
"Really?" Lu An's smile widened when he heard this, and he said, "I think it's alright, and I'm very satisfied with it. I can promote it in my alliance in the future."
"…"
The three women looked at Lu An's relaxed appearance. Normally, seeing this smile would make people feel confident, but with the current situation, they instead felt that Lu An was a little too confident.
"Then Young Master … why don't we give it a try?" Fu Yueni suggested.
"No need." Lu An smiled. He could tell that the two women were worried. However, he said, "Let's go directly to Clan Leader Chu. We'll show them together then."
"…"
The two girls became even more nervous when they heard this. One had to know that if they were to fail in front of Chu Zhengji, it would mean that they had lost the third round! Clearly, there was still a lot of time left. If they were to lose like this, wouldn't it be too much of a pity?
However, Lu An did not give the two women a chance to object. He immediately turned to look at Liu Yuan in the distance, and said, "Miss Liu, I've already completed the forging. Bring us back to Occult Mystery Palace."
"…"
Even Liu Yuan was a little dumbfounded. However, since Lu An had already spoken, no matter if it was Yao, Fu Yueni, or Liu Yuan, none of them could object. Yao and Fu Yueni looked at Lu An. Right now, they could only choose to believe him.
"Alright." Liu Yuan came in front of Lu An, activated the teleportation formation at the side, and said, "Young Master Lu, Young Master Yao, please."
Lu An looked at Yao. He knew that Yao was very worried in her heart. He reached out to hold his wife's hand, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, there won't be any problems."
Lu An's hand calmed Yao's heart down a lot. No matter how worried she was, at this very moment, she trusted her husband even more.
The four of them entered the teleportation formation one after another, and disappeared from the building.

Heavenly Mystery Palace.
Chu Zhengji and Chu Xuan were meditating in the study room. Today's matter with Lu An had caused their thoughts to become a little chaotic. The thing that experts could not be affected the most was their state of mind, and the best way to calm one's state of mind was to think things through.
To Heavenly King Realm experts, meditating for a few months, a few years, or even a few decades was very common, let alone meditating for an afternoon. To the two of them, an afternoon was nothing. However, to their surprise, their meditation was quickly interrupted.
"Patriarch!" A voice sounded outside the door, speaking very quickly.
Chu Zhengji and Chu Xuan did not open their eyes. Chu Zhengji asked, "What's the matter? Speak."
"Patriarch, Lu An is back!" The person outside the door hurriedly said, "He said that the forging has been completed!"
The moment this was said, Chu Zhengji and Chu Xuan immediately opened their eyes!
Meditation required concentration. The two of them did not spread out their perception, so naturally, they did not know that Lu An had returned. More importantly, the two of them did not expect Lu An to return so quickly. They immediately looked at each other!
How could he be so fast?
Chu Zhengji frowned. After spreading out his perception, he found that Lu An And Yao was indeed already standing in the central hall. Had Lu An really completed the forging, or was he going to go back on his word?
However, since he was back, the answer was clear. If Lu An was really going to go back on his word, then Chu Zhengji's previous evaluation of Lu An would be overturned. If his character was so bad, he might not be able to go far no matter how strong his talent was.
"Let's go," Chu Zhengji said.
Immediately, the two of them disappeared from the pavilion and appeared in the main hall in the blink of an eye.
This time, Chu Zhengji did not go to the high platform. Instead, he stood on the ground in the main hall. Chu Xuan naturally followed him. At this moment, many people had gathered in the main hall. When the two of them suddenly appeared, everyone immediately bowed.
"Greetings, Patriarch, Madam!"
When Lu An saw the two of them, he also cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Patriarch Chu, Madam Chu."
Chu Zhengji and Chu Xuan looked at Lu An. From his expression, they could tell that Lu An was in a very calm state. He did not show any signs of guilt. This made Chu Zhengji even more puzzled. He asked, "My clansmen said that Young Master Lu has already completed the forging?"
"Yes." Lu An said as he raised his hand. His interspatial ring flickered and a finger glove appeared in his palm.
"This is the Essence Soul Finger I created." Lu An extended his hand and said, "Patriarch Chu, please take a look."
"…"
Immediately, everyone's gaze focused on the Essence Soul Finger in Lu An's hand. However, when everyone saw the Essence Soul Finger, apart from the color, it was not similar to a real Essence Soul Finger at all.
The patterns on the surface were completely different. The patterns on the inner wall were also completely different. There was also the thickness of the entire finger glove. The thickness of the finger glove was only half the thickness of the Essence Soul Finger. Even the tip of the finger glove was smaller than the Essence Soul Finger. The tip of the Essence Soul Finger was about half an inch, but the finger glove was half the thickness of the Essence Soul Finger.
There was no need to observe it. Everyone present could clearly sense the finger glove. Soon, they shifted their gazes to Lu An. Their eyes were filled with puzzlement and solemnity. From their point of view, Lu An was clearly toying with them!
"Young Master Lu, I'm afraid you're joking, right?" Chu Zhengji took a deep breath and suppressed his impatience. He said in a deep voice, "Is this also an Essence Soul Finger?"
"The bet is so important. Why would I joke? This is indeed an Essence Soul Finger." Lu An said calmly, "I've asked Miss Liu. Patriarch Chu, didn't you agree that as long as the strength released is the same, it will be considered a successful replication?"
Chu Zhengji frowned and said heavily, "Are you saying that this finger glove can be used?"
"Of course," said Lu An.
"Alright," said Chu Zhengji. "In that case, let me test it. If it fails, don't blame me for the failure of this collaboration!"
With that said, Chu Zhengji reached out to take the Essence Soul Finger, but was stopped by Lu An.
"Why don't you let me use it?" Lu An put the finger glove on his finger and said, "How about I show it to you?"
"…" Chu Zhengji looked at Lu An. Even if Lu An used some tricks, it was absolutely impossible for him to imitate a ferocious beast's Divine Sense attack. He said, "Alright, use it on me."
With Lu An's strength, even if he used all his strength, it was impossible for him to hurt Chu Zhengji. Lu An naturally did not refuse and said, "In that case, I'll have to offend you."
With that said, Lu An raised his finger and aimed the finger glove at Chu Zhengji's eyes.
At the same time, the finger glove immediately emitted a dim light. Instantly, a Divine Sense attack shot out!

Chu Zhengji's body shook violently. His eyes revealed an expression of disbelief!
