Immediately thereafter, Mu Ye's gaze shifted to the side and fell on Gu Yue, wondering aloud, "Hmm? Who is this little girl...?"
Hearing this, Zhen Hua said with a hint of boastfulness, "She is the disciple I've taken on, and she is also a student at Shrek Academy!"
Mu Ye expressed his surprise, "Oh? How come I didn't know you've taken a disciple?"
As Zhen Hua's closest friend, he didn't even know about this!
Zhen Hua softly explained, "You happened to be away from the Blacksmith Association during those days, so naturally, you didn't know!"
Mu Ye pondered and then said, "I see!"
Gu Yue, too, recovered from her astonishment and respectfully said, "Senior Mu!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Ye's eyes suddenly sharpened, and a great pressure burst forth, "Hmm? You know my true identity??"
Zhen Hua immediately stood in front of Gu Yue, blocking the oncoming pressure, and said with a wry smile, "There's no need to be so angry; isn't it alright for a disciple who caught the eye of mine to see through your true identity!"
Mu Ye hesitated for a moment before withdrawing the pressure, and looking straight at Gu Yue, he said coldly, "Speak, why do you know my true identity? Otherwise, even if you are Zhen Hua's disciple..."
Although he did not finish his sentence, the murderous intent in his tone was quite clear...
Gu Yue took the opportunity to explain, "Senior Mu, there has been a misunderstanding, we met on the Giant Wheel on our way to Xingluo Land! That's how I came to know your true identity!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Ye's mind suddenly flashed back to part of the scene...
After taking another careful look at Gu Yue and indeed feeling some familiarity, he lifted his chin and said, "Thinking about it... she does look somewhat familiar!"
He remembered this young girl; she seemed to have been with Tang Wulin at the time...
With this thought, his tone softened somewhat, and a smile reappeared on his cheeks, "I was indeed a bit too intense just now, come, girl, try the food I've just prepared, and let it be an apology."
Gu Yue hesitated, instinctively glancing at Zhen Hua...
The latter gave a slight nod, "Give it a try, Mu Ye's culinary skills are top-notch across the entire Continent!"
Hearing this praise, Mu Ye patted his chest and said, "That's right, as the Sect Master of the Body Sect, culinary skills are hardly a challenge for me!"
Gu Yue no longer refused, "Then... thank you, Sect Master Mu!"
Having said that, she delicately picked up a fork, took a dainty piece of cake from the plate, and placed it elegantly in her mouth to chew...
This made her beautiful eyes shine, "This is delicious!"
This greatly satisfied Mu Ye's vanity, and he promptly handed her the entire plate of food, urging her, "I told you it's tasty, right? If it's good, eat more of it..."
Zhen Hua coughed from the side, "Ahem... Mu Ye, she is my disciple!"
Mu Ye glanced at him disdainfully and puckered his mouth, saying, "Psh, as if I'm competing with you for a disciple. However... I have matters to attend to now, so I should leave!"
Having said that, he burst out at a tremendous speed, disappearing from their sight...
Gu Yue looked at the plate in her hands with a somewhat bemused smile, "Well..."
Zhen Hua sighed, "Eat up. After you finish, we master and disciple should have a good chat!"
Although they were master and disciple, it's not good at all to know so little about each other!
Gu Yue pursed her lips, "Yes, Teacher!"

After leaving, Mu Ye quickly arrived outside a forging room...
Having confirmed he had found the right person, he looked at the closed forging room and affirmed, "Hmm? The aura of that little guy should be right here, no mistake!!"
He then took out a magnetic card from his soul tool and swiped it through the recognition slot of the forging room...
Instantly, the closely shut door emitted a "buzzing" noise and began to slowly rise upwards...
A few seconds later, the scene within was revealed...
Almost instantly, Mu Ye's eyes made out Tang Wulin, who focused intently on swinging his forging hammer before the forging table...
Clearly, the noise just now hadn't caused him the slightest distraction...
Choosing not to interfere, Mu Ye folded his arms and watched from the side, "That loud noise didn't even reach his ears, this kid's concentration is really strong!"
He paused for a moment, then smacked his lips, "And... that forging technique, unexpectedly smooth!"
It seemed this young man not only had innate advantages in his bloodlines, but also a great talent in forging!
About half an hour later, Tang Wulin felt a churn in his stomach and violently spat out a mouthful of blood, then half squatted on the ground...
With a tone filled with reluctance he said, "As expected, not having broken through the Soul King rank makes this a bit too forced, doesn't it?"
As for the materials on the forging table, they were clearly damaged and no longer usable...
Seeing this, Mu Ye, out of concern, rushed to his side, scolding, "You brat, do you have a death wish? You're just a Soul Ancestor, and yet you're attempting to forge parts for a Three-Word Battle Armor!!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin immediately turned to look and upon seeing clearly, he recognized the person in an instant!
With an incredulous tone he said, "Mu... Sect Master Mu? What are you doing here? And... why are you dressed as a chef!"
Is this the kind of bad taste that Sect Masters of Great Sects have these days?
Mu Ye coughed behind his hand, "Cough cough... don't sweat the small stuff, kid. Do you realize how dangerous what you just did was?"
He had felt very clearly that Tang Wulin, though already exhausted, had recklessly overdrawn his Soul Power to continue forging, causing harm to his spiritual foundation!
This was very dangerous for a Soul Master!
If one overtaxed their spiritual foundation too much, at best they could end up a fool, at worst their soul could dissipate!
Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment, then clenched his teeth, "Sect Master Mu, I..."
Indeed, he had just now spared no effort to overdraw his Soul Power because he wanted to see where his limits lay!
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Mu Ye, "Enough, no more talking, sit down cross-legged now!"
Tang Wulin exclaimed in astonishment, "Eh?"
Despite being puzzled, he chose to sit down cross-legged out of trust in Mu Ye...
Mu Ye also sat down cross-legged, placing his hands on Tang Wulin's back with a stern tone, "Now close your eyes, the next part is going to be somewhat painful!"
Tang Wulin closed his eyes but still asked, "Sect Master Mu, may I ask what you are planning to..."
No sooner had he finished speaking than he felt a scorching breath on his back, which spread burning along his meridians in all directions...
Even he couldn't help but cry out in pain, "Ahhh!!"
Mu Ye increased the output of his Soul Power, "Kid, you must hold on! Don't let this old man down!"
Feeling as if his body were being torn apart with pain, Tang Wulin clenched his teeth hard...
He recognized the sensation...
This familiar burning was just like the pain he had experienced on the Giant Wheel...
He hadn't expected it, but the one secretly helping him was the Sect Master of the Body Sect!
