Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

That's terrible...

The group took a deep breath; to them, Lu Chan's performance wasn't yet overwhelmingly powerful.

But what's truly bizarre about her is her nonchalant fighting style, which makes it impossible for anyone to discern her true strength.

Everyone pondered for a moment.

Then, Ghost Queen Tang Yi sighed first: "His Majesty the Emperor ordered us to bring those who were being watched by the divine artifact back to the Northern Smoke Realm. However, I'm sure even His Majesty couldn't imagine that a divine war had just broken out in the Northern Territory, could he?"

"There are two people under the gaze of the divine artifact; this information is sufficient to report to His Majesty the Emperor."

"Ghost Consort, are we just going to let it go like this?" Wu Le'er asked in a low voice.

"Don't you understand? If we start a war with her here, the price we pay will only be greater..."

If it weren't for the two or three of them working together, they probably wouldn't have been a match for Princess Zijing at all.

Not to mention there's another "miracle" weapon refiner whose appearance is even more glamorous.

Having already made her choice, Ghost Consort Tang Yi hurriedly said, "Wait a moment, Princess Zijing, please don't execute her yet... We need to discuss this first and see if we can gather five Emperor's Remnants!"

Upon hearing this, the Northern Sword Immortal, Lan Yu, slowly swallowed: "Princess Zijing, I have always treasured a blank Imperial Core. If you spare my life, I am willing to compensate you with the blank Imperial Core..."

"What did you say!!!"

"Lan Yu, do you have a blank Imperial Core fragment?!"

In that instant, even the people from the Northern Smoke Realm couldn't help but change their expressions slightly. The value of a single blank Emperor Core was enough to be equivalent to five broken Emperor Spirit Cores!

Did Lan Yu really possess such a priceless treasure?!

Having a blank spirit core means that you don't have to use the original spirit core abilities, but can instead ignite the spirit artifact abilities related to yourself.

Later, when that weapon refiner stepped into the Emperor realm...

That will ignite two spirit cores directly!

The moment one becomes emperor, one can directly transcend the status of a one-core emperor and become a two-core emperor; such a treasure can also immediately widen the gap between one and the geniuses of the same generation.

"Oh...? So you had something this good? You should have said so earlier!" Hearing this, Lu Chan narrowed his black artifact eyes slightly and said with a light smile, "Take it out now and let me see your sincerity."

"I understand"

Northern Smoke Sword Immortal Lan Yu took a deep breath.

She struggled internally, but in the end, with a wronged expression, she managed to gather a wisp of spiritual energy.

Soon, she took out a blue lamp wick from her body, which emitted an ancient tea fragrance. The blue lamp wick was surrounded by concentric circles of wooden patterns.

"Is it really true?"

Lu Chan blinked, took it, and put the spirit core away without even thinking.

Seeing this, Lan Yu explained with a pained expression, "This is a blank remnant of a wood-type spirit core. Because I don't have any wood-type spiritual artifacts, skills, or treasures, it's completely unusable. I originally planned to find an opportunity to exchange it for a blank remnant of a wind-type spirit core."

"And now, all I can do is give it to you."

Lan Yu pondered for a long time.

Even if she lost her greatest opportunity, as long as she survived, she still had a future.

The Ghost Consort Tang Yi suddenly spoke up, saying, "Princess Zijing, I wonder if you are aware of the value of a blank spirit core? The blank spirit core that Lan Yu gave you is as precious as five broken spirit cores."

"Now, can you finally let her go?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Chan asked with slight confusion, "That's strange. I only said I wanted five broken Emperor Spirit Cores, not what kind of cores I wanted, right? What you ultimately want to give me is entirely up to you."

These guys from the Northern Smoke Realm.

Not only did they intrude into the Northern Territory without a sound, but they also created such a huge mess, disturbing my seclusion.

Not to mention, that Wu Le'er had repeatedly provoked her, calling her the Black-Eyed Lady from her past life. Now... the fact that she didn't kill her directly was already an act of great kindness on her part.

Of course, this was also because Lu Chan knew about it.

Being watched by a divine artifact is not a violation of the path of artifact crafting; all she needs this time is to stall until the realm sends someone to investigate.

If they return empty-handed this time...

Soon, weapon refiners from the Divine Continent will arrive to report their information.

By then, no one in the entire Northern Smoke Realm, not even a true emperor, would be able to do anything outrageous.

Finally, after discussions among the people of the Northern Smoke Realm.

Besides Lan Yu's blank wood-type spirit core, Ghost Queen Tang Yi also provided a broken moonlight-type spirit core. After that... Wan Sha Yang Han gave a dark-type spirit core, Ban Fo Wu Le'er gave a lightning-type spirit core, and Fan Ying Wu gave an ice-type spirit core.

Apart from Fan Yingwu, the other weapon refiners all showed expressions of reluctance.

Under the envious gazes of everyone, Lu Chan took away five spirit cores in one go.

Only then did she slowly lower the Black Moon Bow, and her pair of pitch-black artifact eyes transformed back into a pair of gorgeous light purple eyes, like amethyst.

Xue Mei lowered her eyelids, and Lu Chan blinked gently.

Then, she stretched out a small hand towards the spiritual energy barrier of the Northern Territory: "Everyone, I keep my word. Now that you have given me the spiritual core, please leave..."

at this moment.

Upon seeing her gentle and beautiful face, everyone in the Northern Smoke Realm was stunned.

What the hell!!!!?

After Princess Zijing put away the divine artifact, the Eye of the Goddess.

Could she really be this stunningly beautiful in her original form?

Putting aside her appearance, even her tone of voice has become much gentler and sweeter.

and many more……

Something doesn't seem right!

The girl I saw just now wasn't this kind of gentle and kind beautiful girl at all!!!

"This guy, could he have a second personality?" Ghost Queen Tang Yi murmured, speculating softly.

Soon, she shook her head again with a helpless expression.

This trip to the North.

Not only did they fail to bring back Princess Zijing as originally planned, but they also lost two top-tier weapon refiners.

Not only that, even the airship they came from was blasted to pieces by Princess Zijing's arrow.

"Let's go..."

Seeing the people from the Northern Smoke Realm leave the realm's barrier with gloomy expressions, Princess Tianlei and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just before leaving, the girl with long cherry blossom-colored hair, Emperor Spear Fan Yingwu, slowly turned around. She stared intently at Lu Chan and whispered, "I hope we'll have the chance to meet again in the future..."

The words fell.

She quickly flew out of the northern barrier and disappeared from everyone's sight.

The North has returned to peace once again.

Of course, most viewers watching the live stream simply couldn't understand the battle between top-tier weapon refiners.

But without a doubt, Princess Zijing will become famous throughout the North on this day.

Her name will likely soon reach the Northern Smoke Realm.

I wonder what a magnificent sight she will present when she becomes emperor?

We had a brief reminiscing session.

Princess Tianlei, Lu Huan'er, along with the successors of the Four Symbols, including several weapon refiners whom Lu Chan had met once before, all departed one after another.

Previously, their helplessness in the face of those top-tier weapon refiners from the Northern Smoke Realm had also hurt their dignity.

This was the first time anyone had heard of it...

It turns out that in the Northern Smoke Realm, there is a group of geniuses who became ultimate super-level weapon refiners at such a young age; compared to them... our reputation in the Northern Territory is nothing at all.

"Lu Chan, let's have dinner together sometime!!" Lian Qiu, the successor of the Moon Phase, smiled and waved to Lu Chan before leaving with the other four successors.

However, when Lian Qiu turned around, tossing her long golden hair, a long-lost sense of loneliness appeared in her expression.

A weapon refiner who has been watched over by a divine artifact.

Destined to be alone...

Do not……

Perhaps nowadays, the only one who can accompany Princess Zijing is Miss Nanhe, who is also a "miracle".

This battle is enough to prove it.

Their future lies not in the North, nor even far beyond the Northern Smoke Realm, but in some distant Divine Continent.

Hopefully, many years from now...

They will have another chance to hear the name Princess Zijing.

As the girl with long black hair, Princess You, was leaving, she suddenly waved to Lu Chan: "Princess Zijing, see you later~~~~"

"Um……"

Lu Chan blinked his pale purple eyes and nodded silently.

The secret of Peach Blossom Village must never be exposed. To outsiders, she has no connection whatsoever with the Black Snow Alliance's King, Princess You.

Moreover, when the Youhuang princess said she would meet again, she was obviously referring to meeting in Peach Blossom Spring.

Tonight is the time for our monthly cultivation retreat in Peach Blossom Spring.

"..."

"..."

After the time of one stick of incense.

The group of people who had gathered together all left.

Nanhe asked softly, "Lu Chan, are we going back to Beishengzhou now?"

"Um……"

Lu Chan pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly: "But before that, I need to rest for a while. Let's set off tomorrow."

The Martial Alliance and Beiluzhou are very close to each other.

The situation is different in Beishengzhou. It would take at least a month to fly back to Beishengzhou from Beiluzhou... and you would probably have to take a private airship within Beiluzhou's territory.

Back in the Martial Alliance, Lu Chan had already used the remnants of the Azure Beauty Rejuvenation Pill to completely repair all the spiritual artifacts.

Finally, in her battle against the Northern Smoke Sword Immortal Lan Yu, she tested the fighting style of the Divine Bow Overlord.

Next…

Lu Chan narrowed his pale purple eyes slightly, thinking, "Right now, there's no point in staying at the Transcendent level. After leaving Peach Blossom Village tonight, I can make some preparations and try to break through to the Emperor level."

Her spiritual artifacts from her previous life are still scattered throughout the land.

Only by becoming an emperor as soon as possible can one be qualified to travel to the Divine Land.

Black Snow Alliance:

Because the Black Snow Alliance and Northern Deer State are both the most prosperous states in the Northern Territory, a teleportation array has been built between them.

Princess You quickly returned to the Black Snow Alliance and to her palace.

She sat upright in the courtyard and slowly closed her eyes.
