CHAPTER 344: CHAPTER 195: THE REINCARNATION OF A LEGITIMATE IMMORTAL?_2

"Hmm! Many thanks to Young Master Ting Tao for looking after us!"

Hearing this, Li Yunjing’s expression eased considerably, and he smiled gratefully.

At this moment, Li Yunjing was simply like a dog—if something displeased him, his face immediately showed his dissatisfaction, but if things went his way, he would instantly break into a smile.

This made Young Master Ting Tao’s perception of Li Yunjing extremely negative.

Young Master Ting Tao glanced again at the dock, where many people were already lining up to board the ships under the guidance of the "Sea Tide Sect."

"It’s getting late! Let’s get on the ship too!"

Young Master Ting Tao forced a smile and motioned for the two to follow him onto the third ship.

"Alright! We appreciate your help, fellow Daoist!"

This time, Li Yunjing did not hesitate. Holding Yu Yunyi’s delicate hand, he followed Young Master Ting Tao, cutting in line to board the ship via a gangway.

Those in line could only curse quietly in their hearts.

Along the way, Young Master Ting Tao seemed to be well-regarded within the "Sea Tide Sect." Many members of the sect greeted him respectfully.

Li Yunjing secretly nodded; it appeared that cultivators in the Qi Cultivation Great Perfection realm indeed held a very high status within the Sea Tide Sect.

Once aboard the third ship, Young Master Ting Tao seemed intent on showing off. Instead of leading the two directly to the cabins, he walked from the stern to the bow.

As he walked, he boasted about how remarkable the "Sea Wave Ship" was.

Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi offered a few perfunctory compliments, making Young Master Ting Tao even more smug, seemingly prouder of his sect’s warship.

In reality, to Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi, the interior of this ship seemed quite crude compared to the "Cyan Cloud Ship."

In terms of materials and craftsmanship, it was far inferior to the handiwork of the Celestial Craft Hall.

Li Yunjing glanced around; he felt that if he studied for a while, he might be qualified to participate in the construction of such warships.

If he could practice on one or two warships, he might be able to design and build such a "Sea Wave Ship" on his own.

After the tour, Young Master Ting Tao appeared to have other matters to attend to. He arranged a cabin room for the two and hurriedly left.

Without that annoying fly around, Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi felt much better.

Upon entering the cabin and arriving at their room, Li Yunjing closed the door and revealed a slight look of disdain.

"What’s wrong? Are you angry?"

Noticing Li Yunjing’s displeased expression, Yu Yunyi asked softly.

Yu Yunyi was very smart, feeling a bit secretly pleased—Li Yunjing was jealous!

"No!"

Li Yunjing chuckled, glancing around the room. He scanned everything with his Divine Sense, leaving no blind spots—he did not trust the Sea Tide Sect at all.

Fortunately, the Sea Tide Sect had not set any traps in the rooms.

That, at least, gave Li Yunjing some satisfaction.

He looked around the room again, noting the two single beds, one table, and two chairs. Shaking his head slightly, he thought the conditions were really too poor.

"We’ll just have to make do! I’m not complaining, am I?"

Seeing Li Yunjing’s frown, Yu Yunyi laughed softly.

"If it were just me, poor conditions wouldn’t matter! But I can’t let you suffer, my lady!"

Li Yunjing chuckled, taking Yu Yunyi’s hand and leading her to a single bed.

"The Sea Tide Sect is just a minor, unrefined sect after all!"

Sitting on the bed with Yu Yunyi, Li Yunjing continued, "This ’Sea Wave Ship’ isn’t very complex. If I could study it for a while, I’m confident I could build such a warship myself!"

"What?"

Yu Yunyi was taken aback, not expecting that Li Yunjing knew anything about artifact refining, much less to the extent of building warships.

She shook off her sweet feelings and focused on the matter at hand.

"When did you learn artifact refining?"

Leaning against Li Yunjing, breathing in his pleasant scent, Yu Yunyi asked curiously.

"I’m self-taught!"

Seeing Yu Yunyi’s admiring gaze, Li Yunjing felt pleased and continued, "My artifact refining skills were mediocre at first."

"Later, I learned some techniques from Yang Wenzheng and gathered experience. Then, I exchanged a book on artifact refining at the Scripture Pavilion. Now, I can forge top-grade magical artifacts!"

As he spoke, Li Yunjing’s smile broadened, clearly satisfied with his progress.

"Uh..."

Yu Yunyi was stunned, looking at Li Yunjing’s confident face, her eyes filled with disbelief!

Was artifact refining that simple?

Could one really become self-taught in this field?

Li Yunjing had been in this field for less than two years, probably studying artifact refining for less than half a year.

From knowing nothing to being able to forge top-grade magical artifacts in half a year?

Was he telling her a fairy tale?

If the people at Celestial Craft Hall knew about this, wouldn’t they be infuriated?

If everyone could learn artifact refining this way, would Celestial Craft Hall still have a place?

Li Yunjing’s talent was truly terrifying.

Yu Yunyi was mentally shattered, managing only to mutter: "Freak!"

To be dubbed a freak by such a talented person, Li Yunjing’s astounding aptitude had far surpassed that of the geniuses at the Shenxiao Dao Sect.

"Haha! I’m just so-so!"

Seeing his woman look at him with adoring eyes, Li Yunjing felt even more satisfied.

Feeling pleased and joyful, he was very willing to share this moment with Yu Yunyi.
