Chapter 2083: Smelting and rebuilding
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
But, from the time he grew up, he knew that neither he nor his father was the blood of the Zhuo family. This was hardly a secret in the Zhuo family. It was exactly due to this reason that their status in the Zhuo family was so embarrassing.
“Hmm…”
The sleeping old man rolled over, bumped into a stone, and woke up. He yawned, stretched his waist, and saw the two of them. He rubbed his eyes and asked, “What are you two doing there?”
Feng Jiu looked back at him and answered with a smile. “We’re chatting! Hey, just now, that mercenary team’s leader came over and brought some roasted meat.” She tossed a big piece of roasted meat to him.
“Hahaha, the one we met earlier in the forest?” After taking the meat, the old man ate it directly while mumbling, “Just right when the old man is hungry. There are many opportunities to eat meat here. Most importantly, people bring it to you.”
Feng Jiu rolled her eyes. “Just eat quickly! I’m ready to leave. Are you going to stay here or are you leaving too?”
“Ahem!”
The old man choked on a big piece of meat when he heard this. He quickly swallowed the meat and looked at Feng Jiu. “Are you leaving?” As soon as he said this, he looked at her strangely. “Why didn’t a cunning little fox like you steal away while I was sleeping?”
Feng Jiu’s lips twitched as she took a glance at him. Well, he was right about that. She wanted to sneak away while he was asleep. But who would have thought that Zhuo Junyue wanted to take her to meet his grandmother? She would have left if he hadn’t said that.
When he saw Feng Jiu’s expression, the old man glared at her. “Did you really have such an idea? You tried to sneak out while the old man was asleep? I’ll tell you what! This time if you dare to leave the old man behind, the old man will follow you to your house!”
“We’ll leave the forest at dawn tomorrow.” As she spoke, she suddenly asked, “By the way, can the Aurora Teleportation Device carry the three of us out of the forest?”
Hearing this, the old man snickered and looked sideways at her. “Have you tried teleporting a few others?”
“None.” She shook her head. She hadn’t tried before, that’s why she asked him!
“A common teleportation device can carry people. You call this device a treasure, but it can take only one person at a time?” She asked him with a strange look on her face. If it took only one person, then it’s too restrictive. It couldn’t even compare to the ordinary one, ah!
“That why I said you’re whimsical.” The old man snorted. “As soon as you turn on the Aurora Teleportation Device, you can teleport to all places up there. Can other teleportation devices do that? If this treasure can still carry people, it will become a heaven-defying treasure. It’s impossible to fall into your hands.”
Seeing his disdainful expression, Feng Jiu’s lips twitched. She knew that this old man wouldn’t take out any treasure. But after some thought, even if it could only be used by her alone, it’s still considered a rare treasure. At least, going back to the Phoenix Empire in the Lower Continent would only take a blink of an eye.
The old man looked at her and grinned. “But! If you can find the best Armament Master, this thing can probably be upgraded. Who knows, then, the Aurora Transportation Device can be smelted and rebuilt to be exactly what you have in mind.”
