Chapter 4438: 5.0190 Tianjizi?

With a flicker of her eyes, she raised a delicate, pale hand and extended it towards Haoguang. "Give it back."

Haoguang, however, was still meticulously admiring the sword. Hearing An Wushuang, he impatiently said, "Wait a bit longer."

"Wait for what?" An Wushuang glanced at him, continuing to poke her finger at him. "Hurry up and give it; don't dither. This is my sword."

"The sword body actually has a talisman array affixed to it. The power of frost isn't affected at all," the old man sighed with emotion. "Indeed, new talents emerge from the land with each generation! Hey, girl, don't rush to take it back."

Haoguang's dog-like eyes almost glowed. "May I ask, girl, who refined this sword?"

Princess Wushuang smiled at him, hooking her small finger.

Grand Master Qiao Qiao expressionlessly watched Haoguang crane his neck and lean closer to An Wushuang.

"Senior Haoguang, do you sell this Heaven-Forging Cauldron of yours?"

Fu San pressed his slightly twitching brow and exchanged a helpless glance with Qiao Mu. "Shuangshuang," he called out.

An Wushuang glanced back at him, then turned to the old man again. "Do you sell it, Senior Haoguang?"

The old man, of course, puffed out his beard and glared, repeatedly saying he wouldn't sell it. An Wushuang then snatched the sword from his hand, gave it a slight twist, and returned the ring to her finger. "Guess how old this Divine Artifact Master was when he refined this sword?"

Princess Wushuang looked smug, clearly not intending for the old man to guess. She said, "Twenty-one years old."

The old man's small eyes widened as expected, a peculiar light blossoming within them.

"Selling it or not?" Princess Wushuang asked again. "Anyway, if it stays with you, it definitely won't be as effective as it would in his hands!"

"You wouldn't want a divine artifact to be collecting dust, would you, Master?"

The old man considered this, then cleared his throat. "Don't you just want to find an excellent refining cauldron? I can provide you with one! But it's not this Heaven-Forging Cauldron."

The old man's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled, "I see you are all talented youths with excellent cultivation!"

"How about this: I'll show you a clear path. In there, you will definitely find a refining cauldron even superior to the Heaven-Forging Cauldron!"

Sure enough, as soon as the old man said this, An Wushuang immediately took the bait, her eyes sparkling as she asked, "Where?"

Qiao Mu sighed and rubbed her forehead. "A secret realm."

"The Tianji Secret Realm," the old man said with a chuckle, stroking his beard. He then glanced at the young girl. "Second-Generation Sect Leader! You shouldn't go. Let the young ones take some risks and gain experience; it will be beneficial for their future cultivation and lives!"

An Wushuang's face was devoid of expression. "My sister-in-law is a few years younger than I am."

Fu San couldn't help but chuckle, turning to Haoguang. "Senior, may I ask which esteemed master set up this Tianji Secret Realm?"

Senior Haoguang looked as if his sore spot had been touched. He immediately said with a look of disdain, "You don't need to know; just understand that it's a secret realm set up by a shameless old scoundrel, an old bastard."

Qiao Mu's eyes blinked lightly. She felt the term "old bastard" sounded familiar. After pondering "Tianji Secret Realm" several times, she couldn't help but frown. "Tianjizi?"

"The Master of Mechanisms and Hidden Weapons, Senior Tianjizi??" Fu San looked utterly astonished.

Heavens, how many legendary old seniors were hidden within this Wangchuan Realm and the Snow Ridge Sacred Land?

The old man grunted, glaring at Fu San. "What's there to be surprised about? That guy's just an old scoundrel."

Qiao Mu was also a bit stunned; she hadn't actually considered that possibility before.
