"I hope so." The head of the Liu family flicked his sleeve and left.
Then the crowd dispersed, leaving only Churi Huaizhu alone in thought.
"Where on earth can I find such a magical artifact?" Churi Huaizhu muttered to herself, bowing her head in deep thought.
The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. It felt like she had dug a pit for herself. She had absolutely no clue where to find such a miraculous magical artifact.
She remembered that in this world, the most powerful magical artifacts were the well - known Wangquan Sword, the Eastern Divine Fire, and the artifacts made by Li Quzhuo. But now...
Churi Huaizhu simply had no way to find such amazing magical artifacts on her own. She could only turn to others for help. The face that flashed through her mind was that of Mei Sanniang. Suddenly, an idea popped into her head.
"That's right! It's Mei Sanniang. She must have a way to find a miraculous magical artifact!" Churi Huaizhu exclaimed excitedly as she stood up from the chair.
In her eyes, Mei Sanniang was a well - traveled person. She could lead a notorious bandit group and was also a smart and wise woman. Surely she could get some useful information from her.
"Come here. Find some capable and trustworthy people for me. Preferably disciples from the Wangquan family. I need them to do something for me." Churi Huaizhu said to the servant.
She knew it would not be easy to find Mei Sanniang, who roamed all over the place. Ordinary people would have no way to locate her.
After a while, the maid selected a few people from the disciples of the Wangquan Manor. With the help of Steward Fei, she found the right candidates.
"Madam, your maid has found a few people for you. They are all trustworthy, hand - picked by Steward Fei. You can assign them any tasks!" The maid was very smart. She brought the people and then quickly withdrew.
Churi Huaizhu stood in front of them and sized them up carefully.
"You are all disciples of the Wangquan family. Since you were chosen by Steward Fei, your abilities are surely worthy of recognition. I'm going to assign you a difficult task." Churi Huaizhu suddenly raised her voice, which made the young disciples jump.
The disciples clasped their hands and bowed: "We are at your service, Madam!"
Hearing their words, Churi Huaizhu was quite satisfied. The disciples of the Wangquan family were indeed smart and could be entrusted with important tasks.
"I need you to deliver this letter and this token to the leader of the notorious bandit group. Her name is Mei Sanniang. When you see her, don't start a conflict. Just show her the token, and she'll understand. Later, I'll tell you the detailed location!"
Churi Huaizhu looked very imposing.
The three disciples glanced at each other: "We will surely live up to your expectations, Madam!"
A few days later, the disciples returned from outside, bringing Mei Sanniang and her brothers with them.
Churi Huaizhu had been waiting for several days. Finally, she saw her savior. The moment she saw Mei Sanniang, it felt like her world had brightened up.
"Mei Sanniang, you're finally here. I've missed you so much." Churi Huaizhu was extremely excited, and her excitement was clearly written on her face.
Churi Huaizhu went up for a big hug, but Mei Sanniang dodged. Churi Huaizhu stood there feeling a bit embarrassed. Even the two disciples beside them were quite surprised. They could never have imagined that the mistress of the Wangquan Manor would act like this.
"Huaizhu, you were in such a hurry to summon me. What's the important matter?" Mei Sanniang looked confused. The letter hadn't specified what it was about.
Hearing the news, Wangquan Baye also rushed over. Just as Mei Sanniang was asking about the matter, Wangquan Baye pushed open the door and walked in.
"Long time no see, Mei Sanniang. How have you been?" Wangquan Baye exchanged some pleasantries.
Zhi Yu looked quite excited when he saw Wangquan Baye. After all, Wangquan Baye was the sword - master he admired the most, and his sword - skills were still far from reaching that level of perfection.
"Brother Wangquan, after I practice for a few more years, I must compete with you!" Zhi Yu didn't shy away from showing his admiration for Wangquan Baye.
Mei Sanniang turned to look at Zhi Yu. She knew what was on her little brother's mind. He had always been very hard - working, hoping to one day become as great as Wangquan Baye. But the purpose of this visit was not about this.
"Everyone, please have a seat. Recently, we've indeed encountered some problems and need your help." Wangquan Baye took the lead to speak, looking very much like the head of the family.
Seeing the three of them looking confused, Churi Huaizhu comforted them: "It's not a big deal. We just need a miraculous magical artifact. Preferably a rare one that will make people fall in love with it at first sight!"
Hearing their words, Mei Sanniang immediately had an idea. She knew what they were looking for.
"Rare and powerful magical artifacts are usually in the hands of various big families. The One - Qi Dao Alliance also has quite a few of them. But it won't be easy to get them." Mei Sanniang said helplessly.
Hearing her words, both of them fell into deep thought. It might be possible to borrow these things with the reputation of the Wangquan family.
But they couldn't own them completely, and it wouldn't be good if the head of the Liu family heard about it. Then the mystery of the magical artifact would be gone.
"Is it possible to create a rare magical artifact on our own?" Wangquan Baye suddenly thought. Since they couldn't get other people's things, the one they made themselves would surely be theirs.
"You've come to the right person on this matter! I once saw the method of making an ancient magical artifact in an old book. But according to the book, there are very few people in the world who can make it. The success rate is extremely low. But once it succeeds, it will be a rare and powerful magical artifact!" Zhi Li said.
Sure enough, Zhi Li was really smart. He was full of good ideas and had a very high IQ. If he were in modern times, he would surely be a wealthy and powerful boss.
"The success rate is very low? That's okay. As long as there's a method, I'll give it a try. Maybe I'll succeed. I'm quite confident in my luck." Churi Huaizhu suddenly said.
Churi Huaizhu herself knew that this might be the last resort. Even though it would be very difficult, she must give it a try. Otherwise, she would never be able to get rid of someone like Liu Xiayun.
Just thinking about having to see Liu Xiayun every day and engage in intrigues with her made Churi Huaizhu feel uncomfortable. She preferred a more peaceful life.
Churi Huaizhu discussed with Mei Sanniang and the others for a long time. Finally, they decided to make that ancient magical artifact. Maybe only in this way could they intimidate the head of the Liu family.
Wangquan Baye and Churi Huaizhu escorted Mei Sanniang and the other two out of the Wangquan Manor together. Then he started sending people to collect the materials for making the magical artifact.
Before long, Wangquan Baye had collected all the materials. Now, all that was left was the actual making.
"Huaizhu, trust me. I know someone who might be able to handle this." Wangquan Baye looked at Churi Huaizhu tenderly.
Hearing Wangquan Baye's words, Churi Huaizhu felt that the chance of success had increased a lot.
Wangquan Baye went alone to a very secret place with the materials and handed everything to an old master.
