The Shenwen City Weapon Refining Competition takes place once every ten years.
This is not just a grand event in the Divine Weapon City.
At the same time, it is also a grand weapon refining event in the entire Eastern Wasteland.
How could Tong Pan not care about such a grand event?
After understanding what Shen Yuan meant, Tong Pan did not say any more.
The two then returned to Tong's house together.
Not long after the two returned to Tong's house, Ling Tian and Tong Xinye also returned to Tong's house.
All the way here, Ling Tian just followed Tong Xinye silently.
There is a strange tacit understanding between the two.
No one took the lead to break the awkward atmosphere.
The Tong family owns a huge courtyard complex in the Dongcheng District of Shenbing City.
The place where Tong Xinye lives is located in the northeast corner of this courtyard group.
Ling Tian followed Tong Xinye all the way, and as he walked toward the northeast corner, he found that there were fewer Tong family members on the road, and the surrounding environment became more and more desolate.
He probably discovered it through what he saw along the way.
The northeast corner of the Tong family should be where the servants of the Tong family live.
The buildings here are very simple, and there is no sense of luxury that the Tong family should have as a wealthy weapon-making family.
Come to think of it, Tong Xinye's life in the Tong family is not much different from that of a servant in the Tong family.
If there is one difference that must be mentioned, it is that Tong Xinye still has an independent courtyard, while most of the Tong family's servants live together.
Creak...
Tong Xinye, who was walking in front of Ling Tian, suddenly opened one of the courtyard doors and stepped into the courtyard.
At this time, she stopped and turned to look at Ling Tian.
"Sir, you must be disappointed, right?"
Tong Xinye's face was calm, and there was no wave in her eyes. She was the first to ask, breaking the calm between the two.
"Disappointed? What am I disappointed about?"
Hearing what the other party said, Ling Tian smiled interestingly.
"Master, don't you think the environment here is a bit desolate?"
Tong Xinye stared at Ling Tian with her clear eyes, feeling helpless in her heart.
"I don't think so."
Ling Tian smiled and shook his head, "This place is much better than I thought. At least it's quite secluded, which is just right for studying the art of weapon refining."
After all, Tong Xinye is also the daughter of the wife of the head of the Tong family.
Although she is not the biological daughter of the head of the Tong family, she is still the daughter of the Tong family in name, but not many people recognize her.
This remote courtyard of hers was actually fought for by her mother.
Of course, her mother also made an agreement with the head of the Tong family on this matter.
After she became an adult, her mother never came here again.
In the past few years, she has been living alone here almost alone.
Tong Xinye smiled bitterly, "I haven't thanked you properly for what happened last time. Why did you help me this time?"
"What happened last time was easy! As for this time, what did I do to help you?"
Ling Tian looked at Tong Xinye with a strange expression and asked.
"At Wenyan Dojo, Tong Yan invited you, but you rejected him and finally chose me. Didn't the young master intend to help me? If it is convenient, I want to know why the young master wanted to help me?"
Tong Xinye looked sincere. While answering Ling Tian, she also asked about the confusion in her heart.
She is no longer a three-year-old child and knows how cruel this world is.
Ling Tian would never help her for no reason.
What happened in the inner city of Shenbing City a few days ago can be understood as Ling Tianlu drawing his sword to help when he saw injustice.
So why is Ling Tian doing this today?
She didn't believe that Ling Tian had no purpose!
"What? Are you afraid that I will do something wrong to you?"
Ling Tian looked up and down at Tong Xinye.
Tong Xinye has a delicate appearance, but she is also somewhat pretty.
If not, Shangguan Yunze of the Shangguan Holy Clan would not easily agree to marry Tong Xinye.
It's just that this kind of beauty is not stunning, and it is not enough to attract Ling Tian's attention.
"No, that's not what I meant..."
Tong Xinye thought that Ling Tian had misunderstood her words and quickly denied it.
Upon seeing this, Ling Tian smiled and waved his hand, indicating that the other party should not be too nervous.
Immediately afterwards, he explained unhurriedly, "Actually, you don't have to bear too much psychological burden. I chose to assist you in the weapon refining competition just for myself. Because I think you have the ability to win the weapon refining competition."
Top three in the competition!"
Tong Xinye is Tong Gui’s daughter.
However, the two had never known each other before.
Therefore, Ling Tian had no intention of telling Tong Xin Ye's true intentions.
But he knew that if he didn't give Tong Xinye a reason.
Tong Xinye was afraid that she would not be able to feel at ease.
However, Ling Tian's words just now were obviously not enough to convince Tong Xinye.
Immediately, Tong Xinye asked again, "If Master assists Tong Yan, wouldn't he be more able to win the top three positions in the weapon refining competition?"
"Tong Yan? He's still a little behind!"
Ling Tian said with a smile, "Tong Yan's ability to become the number one weapon refiner of the younger generation of the Tong family is largely due to resources. You don't have such superior resources as him, but you can have almost the same skill in weapon refinement.
This is enough to prove your talent. So I think that by assisting you in the weapon refining competition, you have a greater chance of winning the top three!"
Tong Xinye's eyes flickered, and she obviously understood the truth behind Ling Tian's words.
Thinking about it carefully, Ling Tian seemed to have no reason to harm her.
Plus, she has nothing to lose now.
Without Ling Tian's help, she would never have been able to win the top three spots in the Weapon Refining Competition.
What awaits her then will be marrying into the Shangguan Saint Clan.
And marrying into the Shangguan Saint Clan would most likely mean being tortured and killed.
On the other hand, if Ling Tian helps, she might be able to win the top three positions in the weapon refining competition and change her own destiny.
"No matter what you said is true or not, I should thank you."
Tong Xinye did not continue to ask any more questions.
After speaking, he bowed respectfully to Ling Tian.
"No need to be so polite."
Ling Tian waved his hand casually.
After saying that, he raised his head and glanced at the sky, "I think it's getting late today, so let's have a night's rest. Tomorrow you and I will try to cooperate in refining weapons."
"Well, the young master must be tired after participating in the selection of Wenyan Dojo today. Then I won't disturb the young master."
Tong Xinye nodded, then turned around and pointed to the side of the yard, "The master's room is over there. I have cleaned it up this morning. I hope the master can get used to it."
This simple courtyard has only three rooms in total.
Among them, the room facing the courtyard gate to the north is Tong Xinye's weapon refining room.
There is a bedroom on each side.
Tong Xinye lives in the bedroom on the left.
The bedroom on the right is reserved for Ling Tian.
"It's just a shelter. It can protect you from the wind and rain, that's enough!"
While Ling Tian smiled and spoke, he pushed the door open and entered the house with a calm pace.
Today he participated in the selection of Wenyan Dojo, although he was not very tired.
But it did consume a lot of soul power.
Therefore, at this moment, he had to seize the time to restore the power of his soul.
Tomorrow, he will have to cooperate with Tong Xinye to refine weapons and get along well with each other.
In this process, it is natural to carve the divine pattern array.
This will consume his soul power.
The night is already deep.
Ling Tian quietly sat on the bed and adjusted his breathing.
At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed outside the window, which immediately attracted Ling Tian's attention.
"Um?"
Sensing something was wrong, Ling Tian opened his eyes alertly.
According to the vague breath coming from outside the door.
He can probably tell.
The other party is a True Yuan realm warrior.
So this person is definitely not Tong Xinye!
If it’s not Tong Xinye, who else will appear here?
