The craftsman was also utterly amazed when he saw this Treasure Bead.
"Gentlemen, I’ve been in the jewelry crafting trade for many years, but this is the first time I’ve seen a bead this round and beautiful! As for forging it into a hairpin, that’s of course no problem!"
Lü Yangyan was very pleased. He went over the details with the craftsman carefully, and then, under a few wisps of forging flame, a brilliantly shimmering hairpin was presented before everyone.
"Well? Do you like it?" Lü Yangyan asked with a smile.
Lü Xiaoya’s eyes lit up. "Mm! Thank you, big brother!"
"Thank me for what? Come, I’ll put it on you!"
Lü Yangyan gently fixed the hairpin into his sister’s hair. After examining her for a moment, he nodded in satisfaction, then paid the forging fee and turned to leave.
But what he didn’t know was that just a moment ago, that waiter had already sent the news back to the inn where the True Martial Sect was staying.
"What did you say? Someone brought out a top-grade Treasure Bead to forge into a hairpin? Are you sure you didn’t see wrong?" Lü Xiuming sprang to his feet and asked in a deep voice.
The waiter nodded repeatedly. "How would I dare joke about something like this? It was definitely a top-grade Treasure Bead, without a doubt, so I rushed over right away to inform you all!"
Hearing this, the True Martial cultivators present all couldn’t help showing joy on their faces.
One had to know that a top-grade Treasure Bead was an extremely precious item. Normally, once cultivators obtained one, they would treasure it like a priceless treasure and put it away. No one had ever heard of someone using such a thing to make a hairpin.
If the information was accurate, that meant this person clearly had more than one Treasure Bead in his hands.
This was very good news.
"Let’s go, we’ll find this person right away!" Lü Xiuming could hardly stay put another instant and spoke immediately.
But Lü Zhengqing was comparatively calmer. He said in a low voice, "Don’t rush. What does this person look like? Have you seen him before?"
The waiter shook his head. "He’s a young man. I’ve never seen him before. Oh right, there was a pretty girl following behind him. Judging from what they said, they seemed to be siblings!"
"Siblings?" Lü Zhengqing’s heart stirred, and he fell into thought.
Lü Xiuming, however, said coldly, "Who cares if they’re siblings or not? Since he has Treasure Beads in his hand, we must meet him. If you don’t want to go, then stay here! I’ll take people over myself!"
His words were anything but polite.
The others didn’t dare make a sound.
Because everyone knew that within the True Martial Sect, this Punishment Hall Great Elder Lü Xiuming and Lü Zhengqing, who was specifically in charge of teaching disciples, did not get along.
Whenever something came up, the two of them would inevitably target each other. It seemed this time was no exception.
At Lü Xiuming’s words, Lü Zhengqing’s eyes flashed, but he didn’t say anything else. He only said coolly, "I was just asking for information. After all, all parties have gathered at this convention, and the crowd is a complete jumble of people. If we run into someone with a deep background, wouldn’t we be making a laughingstock of ourselves?"
"Hmph!" Lü Xiuming couldn’t be bothered to argue with Lü Zhengqing at a time like this. He flicked his sleeve and left.
Once they were ready, the group immediately rushed toward that jewelry store.
Their speed could not be called slow. They arrived almost the moment after the Lü siblings had left.
"What? They’re already gone?" Lü Xiuming’s eyes bulged.
"Yes!" The craftsman was startled by the aura on Lü Xiuming’s body and answered with a trembling voice.
"When did they leave?"
"Just now!"
"After them!"
Clad in Daoist robes, with crane-like eyes, it was none other than Lü Zhengqing of the True Martial Sect.
