Romantic Medical Immortal

"Your apprentice will remember it by heart."

Wu Ji gripped the short sword, determination glinting in his eyes as he slowly stood up.

"Yang Cheng, my apprentice here is far more talented than you, good thing I didn’t take you as a disciple just now."

Chen Shixiang spoke proudly.

"Yes, you’re right, I really have no knack for this. Wu Ji is like a blank sheet of paper, learning things quickly."

Knowing what the old man was thinking, Yang Cheng just went along with what he said.

Chen Shixiang thought the young man was quite sensible and nodded with satisfaction. Then he got up and walked to the furnace, using tongs to take out the blazing hot Moon Golden Wheel, and then walked to the side to immerse it in cold water.

Hiss!!

The water bucket bubbled and steamed, and only then did he take out the Moon Golden Wheel and place it onto a slab next to him.

Yang Cheng immediately stepped forward for a closer look. The Moon Golden Wheel was crescent-shaped, its blade entirely black, with runes and edges in bright silver.

The outer edge of the Moon Golden Wheel was lined with thin, sharp blades, spinning with great power when used. Yet, the Moon Golden Wheel was quite small, about the size of his hand.

It wasn’t an assassination weapon either, being so small would reduce the attack area.

Seeing Yang Cheng frowning, Chen Shixiang guessed his thoughts but said nothing, instead taking out a red and a green Spirit Stone and embedding them on both ends of the Moon Golden Wheel.

"How about that? With the Spirit Stones embedded, the entire Moon Golden Wheel looks even more dazzling."

Chen Shixiang was very satisfied, as it had been a long time since he crafted a complete weapon, yet his skills hadn’t dulled, and the work was still excellent.

"In retrospect, I shouldn’t have used a red and a green Spirit Stone; this color combination is a bit of an eyesore!"

Yang Cheng was quite helpless; as a man, having two such glaring Spirit Stones embedded in the weapon made it quite conspicuous.

"You just don’t understand. While there’s a modern saying that red and green are a bad mix, in ancient times, this color combination was meant to ward off evil and bring good fortune. The two Spirit Stones are embedded at both ends, and when used, they blend with the runes, magnifying the power several times over."

Chen Shixiang explained with a smile, his hand lovingly caressing the Moon Golden Wheel, reluctant to give this perfect weapon to Yang Cheng.

He reluctantly parted with it, tossing the Moon Golden Wheel to Yang Cheng, and said with a smile, "Try infusing it with True Qi and see its power."

Yang Cheng nodded and immediately channeled True Qi into it. The Moon Golden Wheel emitted a hum and quickly expanded, floating in the air.

With a mere thought, the Moon Golden Wheel shot forward, slicing into the corridor railing.

With a ’bang,’ the iron railing was directly cut. He quickly retrieved the Moon Golden Wheel; with barely any effort, he had sliced the railing, and he feared that if he continued, the entire building might be destroyed by him.

"The power of the Moon Golden Wheel is indeed impressive."

Yang Cheng finally smiled, slightly raising his hand as the Moon Golden Wheel spun back into his hand.

If he had acquired the Moon Golden Wheel a day earlier, that Chi Ren would have had no chance to harm him and would have been split in two long ago.

However, just having obtained the Moon Golden Wheel, he wasn’t very adept at using it and was somewhat concerned that it might injure him on its return.

"Naturally, the weapons I create are strong, but your two Spirit Stones have made it even better, making it one of the finest among the weapons I have crafted in my life."

Chen Shixiang’s eyes lit up, utterly unlike his previous lifeless demeanor.

He had found life’s meaning, which was to train apprentices and then focus on researching and crafting extraordinary weapons.

"Xiao Yang, once I find the materials to craft the Sun Golden Wheel, you’ll know how a powerful weapon can elevate a cultivator’s strength by several levels, and at the same level, you’ll have no rivals."

He was very confident in the weapons he forged, especially this Moon Golden Wheel, which could be considered an ancient Magic Artifact. Although newly crafted and not yet imbued with the essence of the heavens and moon, the two Spirit Stones compensated for this perfectly, so the power of this Sun and Moon Golden Wheel would not be inferior to a thousand-year-old Magic Artifact.

"Master Chen, what does the Sun Golden Wheel do?"

Yang Cheng asked curiously.

"The Moon Golden Wheel’s primary purpose is offense, while the Sun Golden Wheel is for defense. When activated, it emits a brilliant golden light, forming a spherical protective shield around the body capable of repelling most attacks."

"The Sun Golden Wheel, like the Moon Golden Wheel, isn’t large, making it easy to carry. Infuse it with True Qi, and it hovers above your left hand while your right hand wields the Moon Golden Wheel. The different functions of these two weapons enable a perfect combination of offense and defense. With these two Magic Artifacts, it would be difficult for anyone to harm you in the future."

Hearing this, Yang Cheng was left speechless with surprise. He never expected such an exceptional Magic Artifact existed in this world.

Originally, he sought out Chen Shixiang to craft a weapon he could handle easily, like a sword or knife, anything that could aid in battle.

Unexpectedly, Chen Shixiang surprised him greatly, crafting a weapon a hundred times better than he imagined.

This old master had been introduced to him by Kong Jingshan; it’s a shame he didn’t witness this weapon firsthand.

Seeing his sorrowful expression, Chen Shixiang stepped forward to pat his shoulder and said softly, "Don’t be too excited, with your abilities, you’re sure to possess even more formidable Magic Artifacts in the future."

Yang Cheng had mixed feelings of wanting to laugh and cry; he wasn’t excited at all, just the mention of Kong Jingshan stirred a pain in his heart.

Even though he hadn’t known Kong Jingshan for long, learning of his death made him feel sorrowful. Now, Kong Lingwen’s most revered father had been killed, and her inner pain must be immense.

"Master Chen, now that the Magic Artifact is complete, would you come with us? It’s not very safe to stay here."

Yang Cheng wanted to return and accompany Kong Lingwen as early as possible, planning to take action by nightfall.

"I can’t leave just yet, or what will happen to all the weapons in this place?"

Chen Shixiang wasn’t ready to abandon the fruits of his labor, though they were all semi-finished; however, with dedication, he could produce masterpiece after masterpiece.

"Let Wu Ji stay here with me; if you have urgent matters, you should head back first and come find me once you’re done."

Recognizing that Yang Cheng was preoccupied, Chen Shixiang didn’t want to impose, knowing a master must have the awareness of a master.

Yang Cheng furrowed his brow slightly, worried about his safety. Although Wu Ji had some martial skills, he was still just a kid, standing no chance against a true expert.

Chen Shixiang, noticing his concern, chuckled and assured, "Don’t worry, though my small house appears humble, it has its own mechanisms. Do you think I’ve survived here all these years solely by luck?"

"Big brother, go ahead and return. I’ll protect Master for sure."

Wu Ji chimed in, with a youthful yet resolute face full of determination.
