"I don't mind forgiving you for your unruly behavior, but I will need you to prove your sincerity first," Yuan said to the Refined Obsidian Dragon. freewebnσvel.cѳm
"How can I show my sincerity? I will do anything!" The Refined Obsidian Dragon shouted.
"Although I can make do with the materials I possess currently, it would be great if I had more. Do you understand what I mean?" Yuan spoke with a calm expression on his face.
It took a second, but the Refined Obsidian Dragon responded with great enthusiasm, "Of course, I understand! It would be an honor if Master Yuan used my materials for his creations! Please wait here while I gather my finest materials!"
The Refined Obsidian Dragon rushed out of the workshop the very next moment.
"Brother Yuan… how many more surprises are under your wings? Where in god's name did you learn how to craft treasures like that?!" Long Yejun asked him with shining eyes.
"I am mostly self-taught," Yuan said with a calm smile.
"Self-taught?! Surely, you are teasing me." Long Yejun didn't believe him even for a second.
"I am serious."
"..."
"How long did it take for you to achieve that level of mastery? It must've taken billions of years. I am beginning to wonder if you're actually older than me…" Long Yejun continued to inquire.
"I am definitely nowhere as old as you, and it took me several thousand years to achieve my current level."
"..."
Long Yejun was speechless.
'It only took him several thousand years to achieve his level of mastery?! My nap lasts longer than that!' he exclaimed inwardly.
However, after thinking about it, Yuan had managed to conquer the Baneful Dragon's Poisonous Swamp and the Sky Splitting Dragon's Tribulation in a little over a year.
'If I see it in that manner, I guess a few thousand years is actually a very long time…'
"By the way…" Yuan suddenly grabbed the sword he'd just created off the ground and offered it to Long Yejun, "You can have this."
"What? Are you sure?" Long Yejun stared at him with wide eyes.
He nodded, "Take it. You've been extremely helpful to me without expecting anything in return, so consider this my way of thanking you."
Long Yejun nodded and accepted the sword. When he held the treasure in his grasp, and its aura seeped into his skin, his entire body trembled.
"What a masterpiece! The treasure I crafted is trash in comparison!"
"Thank you. I will put this treasure to good use. You have also proved your sincerity, so I'll forgive you and let bygones be bygones," he said to the Refined Obsidian Dragon after putting the Infinite Obsidian inside his spatial ring.
"Your words mean more than you can fathom, Master Yuan!"
He nodded and said, "I am going to start crafting my treasure now."
Hearing this, the Refined Obsidian Dragon made a swift grasping motion toward the massive hammer hanging on the wall. As it flew through the air, the hammer began to shrink, transforming until it was small enough to be held comfortably, even by an ordinary human.
"Please use this hammer, Master Yuan!"
Yuan accepted the hammer and smiled, "It's a nice hammer."
"Thank you very much!" The Refined Obsidian Dragon looked as if he was about to cry.
'This guy has gone crazy…' Long Yejun looked at the Refined Obsidian Dragon while shaking his head inwardly.
"Master Yuan, do you mind if I watch you craft? I swear I won't disturb you." The Refined Obsidian Dragon then asked with begging eyes.
Yuan nodded, "Sure."
"Thank you very much!!!" The Refined Obsidian Dragon actually shed tears this time.
