Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

The aroma of fried food was overwhelming. Han Junsheng from next door suddenly appeared and asked, "Did you guys raid that snake's snack den?"

"It's not like she raised it; it's something that was born naturally, first come, first served."

"That's true." Han Junsheng nodded. If he wasn't unsure whether he could beat the snake, he wouldn't have given up such delicious snacks.

"Give this old man a try."

"How can you be so shameless, old man? Why should I let you try one?" Li Mingyue strongly objected.

"Why are you even more stingy than your man? What's wrong with letting the elders have a taste?"

"Are you just an ordinary old man?" This old man probably has few rivals in the entire lower realm.

"Am I an old person?"

"uncertain."

Han Junsheng choked on his words, "How can you spare some for me?"

"You old man, you're not being honest. You were just about to try one, but now you've only had a few. We're not sharing."

"A Celestial-grade defensive artifact."

Li Mingyue remained calm. Although she didn't have such a high-level defensive artifact, she wasn't envious. She thought to herself that the old man was quite wealthy, casually taking a celestial-level artifact just for a bite to eat.

Immortal-grade spiritual artifacts are nothing in Mo Lin's eyes, but they are very rare in this lower realm. At least they are not found in shops that normally sell spiritual artifacts. Items of this quality only appear at auctions.

"You little girl, you don't know anything about this, do you?" Han Junsheng looked at her expressionless face and suddenly felt a little insecure.

"Senior, are you a weapon refiner?"

Han Junsheng breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the other party spoke, there was room for negotiation.

"Why are you so old-fashioned at such a young age? What's with all this talk about weapon refiners and alchemists? Only mediocre people can only specialize in one thing. I'll learn whatever I want to do."

"Can I learn it just by studying it?"

"How could you not learn it?"

Li Mingyue shut up. She was just a mediocre person, someone who wouldn't necessarily become mediocre even if she studied.

"Mo Lin, give it to the senior." Li Mingyue relented.

Mo Lin had no objection. Catching these birds wasn't difficult; the only trouble was cleaning them. He picked out more than a dozen that weren't good-looking, or were too fat or too thin, and handed them to Han Junsheng.

"This is too much! This is too much! I, an old man, have a Celestial-grade spiritual artifact, and you only give me these few?" The old man blew his beard and jumped up and down, glaring.

A large plate, not even the bottom was fully covered.

Mo Lin gave him a disdainful look, then picked out three more and put them on the plate.

"No, it has to be at least half."

"That's all. Or we can just leave it at that. It's just a Celestial-grade spiritual weapon. I'll find one for Mingyue." Although he didn't know how to refine weapons, which weapon refiner in their Upper Realm couldn't forge a Celestial-grade defensive spiritual weapon? Divine-grade ones were no problem either, and even growth-type divine weapons with weapon spirits were not unheard of.

"Aren't you going to do anything about it?" Han Junsheng asked, looking at Li Mingyue, who was taking a stroll nearby.

"He's the boss in our family," Li Mingyue said, directly shifting the responsibility to him.

"You're fooling the old folks!" Han Junsheng said angrily, his fingers trembling. "You're clearly the one in charge of this family."

"Nonsense, it's survival of the fittest. Whoever is more capable gets to decide. Isn't that the rule of society?" Li Mingyue said matter-of-factly.

"Does this rule apply to you? Huh? Huh?"

"You don't understand." Li Mingyue ended the conversation.

Why wouldn't it apply? It seems like she has more say between the two of them, but in reality, the stronger one is in charge. If she had the strength to kill indiscriminately, there would be no future between them; she would have gone solo long ago.

However, she is not a very rebellious person. She knows how to make herself comfortable within the existing rules and environment. With a powerhouse of this world by her side who is willing to pamper her, she can certainly be a kept woman.

Mo Lin didn't know Li Mingyue's true thoughts, but the two of them had strangely arrived at the same conclusion, so they added a few more fried birds to the plate.

"Single old man, you wouldn't understand."

"Hmph!" Han Junsheng reluctantly threw the defensive artifact on the ground, picked up the large plate, and disappeared.

Li Mingyue picked it up, dusted it off, and began to study it.

"It's a passive defensive artifact that can withstand a full-force attack from someone below the Nascent Soul stage. It's a bit ugly, but you can wear it for now until we return to the Upper Realm."

The magical artifact was a simple copper hairpin, which looked alright, but according to the Dragon Clan's aesthetic, anything that wasn't shiny was considered ugly. If Li Mingyue were dressed according to his aesthetic, she wouldn't need a lantern when she went out at night; she would be the brightest portable lantern herself.

I don't know how someone with such aesthetic standards could have fallen for me? Did he see something special about her soul?

"I wonder if I can learn weapon crafting." Li Mingyue was somewhat tempted. The people in the sect said that her spiritual root was best suited for taking care of spiritual plants and alchemy, but she was not in the sect and did not need to follow the sect's plan of developing one's strengths to cultivate herself.

"Want to learn? Didn't the basic training manual we bought include weapon crafting? If you encounter any problems, just ask your neighbor next door for help."

"I also want to learn alchemy."

"If they can learn, their neighbors next door should be able to too."

"It's said that these two items are very expensive in terms of spirit stones."

"It's alright, we have plenty of spirit stones."

"Did you bring so many spirit stones from the Upper Realm?" He had been spending spirit stones like a spendthrift all the way, in every city.

"I did bring spirit stones from the upper realm, but those spirit stones were of such high quality that spending them would easily expose my identity. The spirit stones I used to buy things were all freshly mined."

"Where did you find it?" The spirit stones were mentioned as if they were just cabbages.

"On the way here, I found a small spirit stone mine in the mountains, but the quality was so-so. After arriving here, I went directly to the seabed to mine. The spirit stones at the seabed are of very high quality. The spatial ring I gave you a couple of days ago is full of spirit stones."

Li Mingyue remembered the ring. When he came back, he grilled fish for her, and she took a bite before starting her cultivation. She didn't have time to look at it. She took out the ring and scanned it with her divine sense.

Yes, a mountain of spirit stones.

No wonder people from the upper realm are strictly forbidden from coming to the lower realm without permission; with that kind of power, they could deplete the resources of the lower realm.

Mo Lin was able to stay here to recuperate because he was of mixed blood. Otherwise, people from the upper realm would have their cultivation suppressed after coming down, and their internal injuries would not only fail to heal but would become even more severe.

However, his situation is extremely rare. His mother suffered greatly during her pregnancy, which affected her lifespan.

Mo Lin put away the tools for frying the birds and carried the fried birds: "Let's go, the weather is going to change. Stay in the courtyard for the next few days and don't come out, lest you get blown away by the wind."

"Okay." Li Mingyue nodded in agreement. She had seen the strong winds here before; a tree that took three people to hug was uprooted.

Because Li Mingyue wanted to learn weapon crafting and alchemy, Mo Lin directly provided her with a cluster of earth fire, as well as an alchemy furnace, a weapon crafting platform, and various materials.

Han Junsheng, who was being consulted, remarked, "Tsk, a beginner has compiled such a complete set of things? Isn't that a waste?"

"I'll need it sooner or later anyway." Mo Lin didn't care. Everyone says that alchemy and weapon crafting are all about materials, and his Bright Moon can't do without materials.
