"Scum!"

The voice was like weeping and complaining, full of resentment.

Ling Feng looked back in surprise and said: "Young Master, there are several carriages blocking the road, and a woman on the carriage is calling you scum. It's probably a couple arguing!"

Heng Xian was stunned, feeling like a lifetime away: "You guys here... also have this saying of 'scum'?"

"Here?" Ling Feng scratched his head, "Understanding from the literal meaning, scum means bad? Man is a man, so it must be a bad man!"

"The analysis is quite on point, go around it, don't watch the fun!" Heng Xian said.

"Yes!" Ling Feng turned the horse's head and changed direction.

Who knew that several carriages blocked the way again, and the girl's voice on the carriage scolded again:

"Scum! Where do you still want to go?"

"It's over!" Ling Feng's face turned pale, "Young Master, they are looking for your subordinate, I don't know which lover's affair has been exposed!"

As soon as the voice fell, Jiang Ziyi walked out of the carriage in a bright and dazzling princess dress, fiercely saying: "The driver, get lost! Heng Xian! You scum, come out for me!"

"That's good!" Ling Feng wiped his cold sweat, "Young Master, it seems they are looking for you."

Heng Xian walked out of the carriage in surprise, looked at Jiang Ziyi, and asked: "Who are you?"

"Uh..." Jiang Ziyi's face turned slightly pale, "You, you actually don't even remember who I am?"

Heng Xian patted his forehead, suddenly realizing: "The one from the Yihong Courtyard... Little Lianxiang, right? The style is okay today, dressed like a princess!"

"Little... Lianxiang? Prostitute?" Jiang Ziyi was dumbfounded.

At this time, Ye Xiaoyao couldn't bear it anymore and walked out of the carriage, his face cautious, cupping his fists in a salute: "Brother Heng, do not be rude to the Princess. This is Her Highness Jiang Ziyi, the Seventh Princess of our Great Chu Kingdom!"

"Oh, good afternoon! See you later!" Heng Xian had a vague impression and waved his hand.

Ling Feng drove the carriage, turned a corner, and continued on the road.

"I! Am! Going! Crazy!" Jiang Ziyi clenched her fists and directed the carriage to block Heng Xian's carriage again, "Heng Xian, I said last time, I want you to be my consort, why did you lie to me that you couldn't cultivate?

Yesterday I returned the marriage contract with Ye Xiaoyao and found the Heng family again, why did you reject me again! Where exactly do you not like me?"

Heng Xian blinked in surprise: "No way? We don't have feelings, and aren't you with Ye Xiaoyao?

You are already remarried, and you still want to find me? Please respect yourself, Princess!"

"I..." Jiang Ziyi almost bit her silver teeth, "I want to kill you!"

"Kill your sister, you psycho!" Heng Xian waved his hand again, "Let's go!"

Ling Feng continued to drive the carriage.

"Stop them!" Jiang Ziyi waved her sleeves heavily.

"Swish swish swish..."

More than a dozen men in black, holding sharp curved knives, suddenly blocked the carriage.

Ling Feng had no choice but to stop.

Heng Xian rubbed his eyebrows, full of annoyance.

"Princess of Chu, what great prestige!"

Just then, another huge luxurious carriage slowly approached from not far away, with exquisite wind chimes hanging on the side, swaying with the wind and making a pleasant sound.

Whether it was the style of the carriage, the noble furnishings, the accompanying personnel, or the scale of the guards, it was ten times stronger than Jiang Ziyi's.

"Who?"

Jiang Ziyi frowned slightly. When she saw the purple five-clawed golden dragon and the other shore flower pattern on the opposite carriage, her face changed drastically.

She jumped off the carriage in a hurry, bowed like a maid, and saluted: "Jiang Ziyi has seen the noble from the upper country!"

There was silence in the carriage, and soon two rows of palace maids laid out a path of sachets and stood by to wait.

A pair of gold-inlaid boots stepped out first, followed by a "peerless handsome young master" in white brocade, with a face like jade and unparalleled appearance.

It was Ji Yaoyue.

At this time, there was no place on his body that did not exude the aura of nobility, and no place on his skin that was not delicate, like congealed fat and beautiful jade.

Jiang Ziyi was stunned.

Ye Xiaoyao not far away was also stunned.

Ji Yaoyue smiled indifferently, opened his folding fan, the style in an instant was convincing, and said: "Rise..."

As he spoke, he looked at Heng Xian's direction with a slightly red face, but found...

Heng Xian's "broken carriage" had already run far away along the corner, and a voice faintly came from the carriage: "A bunch of people who are neither human nor ghost, just wasting my time, I'm convinced!"

Ji Yaoyue was stunned!

She had gone to great lengths to see Heng Xian, taking three milk baths in the Heavenly Pool, being fumigated with incense three times, and choosing pure celestial silk monster clothes, showing the most perfect posture, just to leave a good impression on him.

He said I am neither human nor ghost? Or, he didn't seem to look at me much?

The white-haired old man beside him looked embarrassed: "Princess, let's go back, that kid doesn't know the big picture, it's not necessary!"

Ji Yaoyue waved his sleeves: "No! What is he going to do at the Artifact Refining Alliance Branch? Artifact refining? I also want to try artifact refining, I have to compare with him!"

Heng Xian and Ling Feng had already stopped the carriage in front of the "Artifact Refining Alliance".

After greeting the guards at the door, he walked in alone.

Elder Xu, who received the news, brought people to greet him. Unlike the slick Elder Mo, he spoke straight to the point:

"Kid! Your family is already in such a difficult situation, why are you running to the Artifact Refining Alliance? The Artifact Refining Alliance never interferes in the disputes of mortal families."

Heng Xian smiled: "I just came to take the artifact refiner assessment, Elder Xu, don't be excited."

Elder Xu was surprised: "I know you are familiar with pill refining, kid. Artifact refining... you know that too?"

Heng Xian said solemnly: "I dare not say it's perfect, but at least it's familiar!"

"Confidence is a good thing for young people, but you must act according to your ability!" Elder Xu was very surprised, then snapped his fingers, "Someone, take him to the No. 9 Artifact Refining Room, and invite the four artifact refiners Song, Li, Zhang, and Bai to supervise!"

"Yes!" A young artifact refiner walked over: "Young Master Xian, please!"

Heng Xian nodded: "Thank you!"

The two walked one after another, passed through the corridor in the middle of the hall, and entered the empty courtyard behind.

On the way, they occasionally met some artifact refiners wearing wide robes and large sleeves with small swords representing the artifact refiner level embroidered on their chests, and apprentices dressed in short and capable outfits.

After walking for half an incense stick, a huge palace-style room appeared in front. After entering, the temperature was obviously much higher, and there were separate small rooms inside.

At this time, a group of low-level artifact refiners and apprentices were busy.

The young artifact refiner took him into an empty small room marked "Nine".

The temperature in the room was higher, and it was very empty. Except for three metal beds, there was a "chimney" with buttons, and everything looked strange.

Heng Xian looked at the three metal beds and said "Damn", is this a lathe in a mold factory?

The theoretical knowledge of artifact refining was practiced thoroughly under the calculation of the "Xuanhuang Heavenly Hexagram", but he didn't know how to use the machine!

Spending day and night with the "Xuanhuang Heavenly Hexagram" during this time, he was familiar with the rules of the "Xuanhuang Heavenly Hexagram". It can help you calculate everything, but it will never give you anything!

Just thinking about it, four old "artifact refiners" holding bamboo slips walked in one after another with straight faces.

Immediately following, four more people came—

Elder Xu, the frowning Ye Xiaoyao, the humble Jiang Ziyi, and the noble and handsome Ji Yaoyue.

Elder Xu said: "Two more just came, Ye Xiaoyao and Ji Yaoyue, Heng Xian, the three of you will take the assessment together!"

While Elder Xu was speaking, Ji Yaoyue looked at Heng Xian intentionally or unintentionally, but found that the other party completely ignored him and was in a state of distraction.

At this time, Elder Xu said again: "The artifact refiner apprentice assessment is to melt ores, iron blocks, and other raw materials!

First-grade artifact refiner, assessment of casting shape!

Second-grade artifact refiner, assessment of inscriptions and casting shape!

I hope you act according to your ability, choose!"

As he spoke, the four old artifact refiners had already stood aside with documents, holding brushes ready to record.
