Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1106 (One Thousand One Hundred and Six) Initiative
"What will happen if someone finds it before it's finished?" Tie Hongyan continued to ask.

"Then these materials will never be able to be made into a certain shape through magic." Ni Yuan said, "Does the young clan leader intend to let me do this?"

"Yes. As for the reward, I believe you will be satisfied." Tie Hongyan said. She knew that Ni Yuan was a very skilled magician and a reliable person.

"Thank you, Young Patriarch!" Ni Yuan said.

"You must make sure you don't reveal this to anyone." Tie Hongyan said.

In order to make Tie Hongyan feel at ease, Ni Yuan immediately took the initiative to swear an oath and used magic to guarantee it. The so-called magic to guarantee means using magic when swearing an oath. If the promise is not kept, then under the effect of the magic, the swearer will be automatically punished, and in serious cases, he may die at the moment of breaking the oath.

Tie Hongyan had seen alchemists swear in this way before, and knew that it would be difficult to fake an act like Ni Yuan's. She already believed in Ni Yuan, and now seeing her swearing with her own life, she felt more reassured.

Tie Hongyan brought Ni Yuan to the door of the branch room where the fragments were kept and gently opened the door of the branch room.

After the two entered, Ni Yuan looked carefully at the fragments on the ground.

Tie Hongyan recalled that she had used the Phantom Tassel Spear Technique to break the fragments and then restore them. Although she felt that it should not affect anything, she still asked, "Is there any problem with these materials?"

"Yes, Young Clan Leader. There is no problem with the materials. I can definitely make a sobering jar like the one just now." Ni Yuan said, "I will also need some large sheets of paper. The bigger the better."

"Do you want it now? I'll go get it." Tie Hongyan said.

"Thank you, Young Patriarch! I will start the ritual now. It would be best if there are no other people around during the ritual, so that I can concentrate more easily and avoid making mistakes. There are no other items here except me and these fragments. I wonder if it would be convenient for the Young Patriarch to lock me in this branch room from the outside? After I finish the ritual, I will need a large piece of paper. Then I will knock on the door from the inside to inform the Young Patriarch. Is that okay?" Ni Yuan asked.

In fact, Ni Yuan knew that she only needed to close the door, and there was no need for Tie Hongyan to lock her in this room from the outside. However, although there was nothing else in this room, there were various other items outside the door. She felt that it would be easier for Tie Hongyan to feel at ease to get the paper if Tie Hongyan locked her in the room. In this way, if there was something in Tie Hongyan's room that he could not find temporarily, or if there were any other problems, she would not be suspected. It was not that she did not believe in Tie Hongyan, and she knew that Tie Hongyan believed in her, but after all, this room was the territory of the young patriarch's room, and it was extremely unusual. She felt that it would be better to be rigorous, not only to reassure Tie Hongyan, but also to make it less likely for her to have distracting thoughts when performing the ritual, and the effect of the ritual would be more guaranteed.

"Okay." Tie Hongyan didn't ask Ni Yuan why she asked him to lock her in that room. She just thought that since Ni Yuan said so, she must have her reasons. Maybe locking her up could better ensure that she would not be affected by the outside world. Besides, there was nothing in the room except the fragments of the cooling stones and the things inside the sobering jar before it was broken. Locking Ni Yuan inside should not be detrimental to Ni Yuan herself or to Ao Qian Palace.
