Chapter 199 Failure

Cang Jin spoke to her in a condescending tone: "Take it."

When Jian Ning saw the two large items that suddenly appeared in the living room, her eyes sparkled with excitement, and even her gratitude became genuine.

"Thank you, Master!"

However, these two large items can't be placed in the living room; they're too obstructive.

After considering it for a while, Jian Ning felt that the place for refining weapons, like the place for refining pills, should be the open-air area in the backyard, near the octagonal pavilion.

These two items should remain in the Qiankun Ring and can be retrieved when needed.

With this in mind, she put the furnace and forging hammer that Cang Jin had given her into her Qiankun Ring.

When Cang Jin saw her laughing so happily over such a low-level furnace and hammer, he felt to himself that she was unsophisticated and, at the same time, that she was his apprentice and yet so unambitious.

"Alright, study hard, and I'll give you something even better in the future."

Jian Ning understood what he meant, just like when her grandma said she would buy her delicious food if she did well in Chinese and math when she was little.

Although Cang Jin seems to have a bad temper, he is actually a pretty good person.

"Master, I will definitely study hard."

Jian Ning clenched her left fist and raised it forward, as if to assure herself that she would work hard.

Suddenly, Cang Jin grabbed her wrist, his eyes fixed on the ring on her index finger, his expression changing drastically.

How did you get this ring?

Even his tone of voice seemed to be squeezed out from his throat.

Jian Ning glanced at the Qiankun Ring, and seeing that Cang Jin's expression was off, she casually made up a story: "Given by the system."

Anyway, the system won't expose her.

She asked again, "What's wrong, Master? Is there something wrong with this ring?"

Cang Jin released her and shook his head, saying, "It's nothing."

It seems the system wasn't lying when it said it could give him information about Su Yufeng's whereabouts. This Qiankun Ring belonged to Su Yufeng, and he never took it out of his sight. He wondered how this elusive system had managed to get it from Su Yufeng and then give it to this little brat.

Cang Jin remembered that the system had warned him today that he must correct his attitude as a weapon-refining instructor, otherwise the mission would be judged as a failure.

He said solemnly, "The moonlight is perfect tonight. I will guide you in practical weapon forging, starting with the simplest divine wood sword."

Jian Ning shuddered. How did she suddenly get all rolled up and stay up all night refining weapons?

"Master, why don't you teach me how to forge your flying boat? I have an idea I'd like to make..."

She didn't expect to become a master craftsman; she just thought that since there was a master here to guide her, she might as well get the flying RV sorted out in the next few days.

Cang Jin was about to strike her on the head with the jade flute in his hand.

Jian Ning dodged to the side, covered her head with her hands, and grinned at Cang Jin: "Master, if you hit my head again, I'll go crazy."

"Fine, your brain isn't very sharp to begin with. Don't try to become an expert overnight; you need to master the basics first." Cang Jin put away his jade flute, put his hands behind his back, and instructed Jian Ning, "Follow me."

With Cang Jin's long body and long legs, Jian Ning had to jog to keep up.

Cang Jin stopped not far from the courtyard and pointed to the big tree in front of him.

“This isn’t the cultivation world, so spiritual materials aren’t hard to find. This tree, which was struck by lightning, is a basic spiritual material for forging the Divine Wood Sword. You can collect it.”

Looking at the tree in front of her, Jian Ning remembered that it was the advanced version of the "Slightly Clouds and Rain" technique that Teacher Su had taught her last time.

Amidst the flashes of lightning and thunder, a bolt of lightning struck a tree directly in front of her house—this very tree.

Following Cang Jin's instructions, Jian Ning cut down the lightning-struck wood.

Cang Jin said earnestly, "The Divine Wood Sword is the simplest. After obtaining the spiritual materials, process them first, then fuse them with auxiliary materials, shape and forge them, inscribe array patterns, and finally quench and bind them to their master. That should be about it. Just follow my steps one by one, and there won't be any problems."

“Yes, Master,” Jian Ning replied confidently and with a strong voice.

Half an hour later, Jian Ning looked at the lightning-struck wood that had been completely burned to charcoal, wiped the sweat from her nose, and glanced guiltily at Cang Jin beside her.

"Master, it seems... it didn't work?"
