This tool refining master had always been concise and comprehensive, but when speaking about her work, she would turn into an old lady who couldn’t stop talking about her hobby. She told Lu Mingshu about the process in detail and the hardships she faced while forging it. The tool refining master even told her all the pros and cons of it. Lastly, she threatened Lu Mingshu to cherish the sword and look for her again to improve the sword when Lu Mingshu became stronger.
Lu Mingshu agreed to all her requests. After settling the bill, Lu Mingshu sped off excitedly to try the sword, ignoring the tool refining master’s reluctance.
Opening up the black cloth, she could see the silver sheath.
Lu Mingshu played around with it.
This kind of silver was not eye-catching, and many would ignore it. However, if one observed it clearly, they would realize that there were a lot of hidden patterns and runes that contained the treasure aura.
Before forging the sword, the tool refining master asked for Lu Mingshu’s height and the length of her palm. After learning that she was only sixteen, the tool refining master made some room for growth. The tool refining master strived her best to forge a sword that would absolutely fit the owner well.
Now that it was in Lu Mingshu’s hand, she felt that this sword fitted her perfectly.
After she finished playing around, she slashed the sword down, and a rainbow-coloured light flew out. The bright sword-light reflected in her eyes like clear water.
The sword-light coiled around her and, with a quick waved, it slashed everything into pieces within three miles.
Oh my god!
Lu Mingshu was shocked as she looked at the sword in her hand.
She never knew how a good weapon could improve one’s cultivation, but she knew now!
If she had this during the Qilin Festival, she would’ve had a more interesting fight with Wei Chunqiu.
She caressed her new sword. The sword was slender, so thin that it was almost invisible. She could see her reflection on the sword’s clear and flawless blade. She slowly ran her hand over the sword. When she reached somewhere near the sword hilt, she felt a bumpy texture.
She looked down to realize a row of words was on it. “As bright as moonlight – Lunar God.” There was a very small engraving at the bottom, with a “Dan” in the middle.
“Dan” was the name of the tool-refining master. Many tool refining masters had the habit of leaving their name on their products.
But naming the sword itself without the owner’s permission… Whatever, they have their strange hobbies, and it’s a good sword. She didn’t really care about this little detail.
Besides, her name – Lu Mingshu – was related to the moon, so calling it Lunar God made it related to her own name.
“Congratulations on your sword.” A voice could be heard, and in no time, Yu Ruohan was already in front of her.
“Senior Yu,” Lu Mingshu greeted.
Yu Ruohan smiled at her. “It’s ready?”
Lu Mingshu nodded. “I’ll still have to thank Senior for the Fairy Gravel.”
Yu Ruohan smiled thinly. “Just exchanging for our mutual needs.”
Seeing her serious face, Lu Mingshu realized what Yu Ruohan was here for. “Does Senior have something important to tell me?”
“The weak stream is almost fully lowered. Within five to three days, it will be gone.”
“That’s fast!” Lu Mingshu felt that it was a pity. If I had more time to get used to Lunar God, I would surely perform better.
“Get ready quickly. If you take too long, we will be at a disadvantage.” Yu Ruohan shook her head. “Since your sword is ready, then let’s just go now.”
“What else do I need to prepare?” Lu Mingshu asked.
“We have already done everything for you.” Yu Ruohan gave her a thin smile. “Come along with me.”

Lu Mingshu and Yu Ruohan left Emerald Mist Island and returned to the shipyard.
Lu Mingshu followed her all the way to the shipyard into the most unassuming courtyard.
“Senior brothers, Miss Lu is here.” Yu Ruohan walked in swiftly and greeted them all.
Lu Mingshu went in after her. There were four people in the room. Other than Sir Ning and Xuan Xiu, there were two others that she had never seen before. One was in a robe with cranes embroidered on it, dressed like a Daoist. The other one was in a grey robe, with no expression.
The Daoist must’ve been the leader of the fleet, Mao Xuan. The other one would be Lin Zongting.
“Greetings to all seniors.” Lu Mingshu bowed.
Mao Xuan gave her a smile and reached out his hand. “No need to be so polite.”
When Lu Mingshu stood up straight, Mao Xuan looked at her, smiling. “How prepared are you, little girl?”
“Not fully prepared, but I guess I could endure a fight.”
“Hmph!” Somebody interrupted her. “Do you even know who your opponent is? It’s Ling Wuxia. Ling Wuxia! Please do not be that arrogant.”
Of course, it was Xuan Xiu who said this. After so long, she still felt indignant for Wen Xin.
Lu Mingshu plastered a smile on her face. “There’s no 100% in this world. As long as I try, there’s always a chance of winning.” She paused before continuing. “How else would I get first place in the Qilin Festival?”
Lu Mingshu never spoke about her placing on the New Generation Ranking in front of others because, to her, it wasn’t something very impressive. However, Xuan Xiu’s attitude irked her.
Mao Xuan smiled thinly, and he secretly had a better impression of Lu Mingshu. Rumours said that this Miss was fierce. He couldn’t tell at first, but now he could. It should be this way. Without competitiveness, how would one improve?
“Ling Wuxia wouldn’t dare to claim 100% confidence either. Just do your best.”
Lu Mingshu bowed. “I’ll have to make Senior’s Fairy Gravel worth it.”
“Hehe.” Mao Xuan smiled broadly and urged Lu Mingshu to stand straight. “This poor Daoist is at ease seeing this girl’s attitude. Zongting.”
The grey-robed Lin Zongting raised his eyebrows and walked to the table. He pulled out numerous items from his sleeve and placed them on the table. “There are poisonous substances on Jasper Sun Mountain, this is the medicine to protect you. This is a temporary tent to protect you from beasts…”
He explained the items on the table one by one. Some were worth a lot, while some were cheap, but they all had their uses. She could see that they put a lot of effort into this.
Lu Mingshu paid attention to his explanation. After he was done, Lu Mingshu thanked him sincerely. “Thank you for your trouble.”
“It will be worth it if you keep your promise,” Lin Zongting answered in monotone.
Lu Mingshu remain silent. No matter how many vows she made now, it would be worthless. Only when she got the approval of the Grandmaster and kept her promise would it actually matter.
Only
After Lu Mingshu left, Mao Xuan turned to Lin Zongting. “Zongting, what is your opinion?”
“We can’t change now anyway, can we?” Lin Zongting retorted. “We have observed her for two months, and we can see that she deserves to be on the New Generation Ranking.”
Mao Xuan smiled widely.
If they had a choice, they would not want to send her there or put the life and death of the fleet in her hands. However, since they decided to do so, it was obvious that they would observe her. During her stay on Emerald Mist Island, they observed her 24/7. If she tried to play any tricks, choosing a new candidate right away would be way better than wasting the chance on her.
Now, they saw that Lu Mingshu was okay. She had been working hard on improving herself and took the matter seriously.
She was also rather capable as well. It was a surprise that a sect like Nine Jade Palace would have such a disciple.
They were already 100% prepared. Now, it was up to Heaven’s will whether they would fail or succeed.
