Chapter 1021: Chapter 1021: Small Flying Device
Xiao ng finally accepted the fifth-ranked Pill Furnace, expressing her thanks to Qin Sisi with a serious dignity that Qin Sisi had never seen on her before.
Unknown to Qin Sisi, there was a long-lost emotion being stirred within Xiao ng’s heart.
After interacting with Xiao ng, Qin Sisi’s mood was no longer as downcast as it had been before; Xiao ng, especially, was excited and began to relate to Qin Sisi the amusing incidents that occurred during the holiday.
Only through Xiao ng’s stories did Qin Sisi realize the importance of this particular holiday.
This holiday period contained the two grandest celebrations of the Demon Sacred Realm. The first was the Divine Dragon Rises on the second day of February, and the second was the Phoenix Singing in Flowery Day on the twelfth of February.
It is said that the Divine Dragon created the Demon Sacred Realm on the second day of February, and the Phoenix created the life of the Demon Sacred Realm on the twelfth day, blessing them with the talent and ability for magic.
Therefore, on these two days, the people of the Demon Sacred Realm would hold very grand celebrations.
On the second of February, everyone would clean their hos, dress up in new clothes, decorate with lights and strears, and parade on flower floats...
Listening to this, Qin Sisi’s heart raced, feeling it quite similar to the New Year in the Human World.
By the twelfth of February, spring returns to the earth, all things revive, flowers start to bloom in abundance, and the celebrations focus primarily on outdoor spring outings.
Xiao ng, being an exuberant spirit, naturally would not miss such an opportunity. On the day of Phoenix Singing in Flowery Day, she and her two sisters went on a spring outing to the edge of the Fantasy Forest, picking a lot of fresh flowers and Spirit Grasses, fighting so Demonic Beasts, and fortunately obtaining so Magic Crystal Stones.
Qin Sisi watched Xiao ng’s face lit up with a radiant smile, and her mood brightened along with it.
The flying device was speeding across the vast sky, flying past the Flower Fragrance City with blooming flowers, flying over Miaoyin City filled with music, and finally arriving at Scholar City, the location of Heavenly Magic God’s Castle.
Scholar City finally ca into view; the flying device slowed down and gently landed in the spacious docking center.
This ti, Qin Sisi and Xiao ng had stayed in their room without going out, so naturally, nothing had happened. When it was ti to leave the flying device, Qin Sisi thought of the genius Forgemaster Shuo Yu with a disability. If possible, she was eager to seek his ntorship.
Great masters yield outstanding disciples; having guidance from the master, even just a little, would be profoundly beneficial.
As they finished packing their things and prepared to descend the stairs, an announcent that could reach every corner of the flying device rang out: "The flying device has malfunctioned and needs to be repaired and maintained; we will stay in Scholar City for two hours. We ask for your understanding."
The passengers aboard the flying device were initially stunned, then a wave of complaints ensued. Normally, a flying device would dock for half an hour at a stop, and only when returning to Wang City would it dock for five hours for maintenance and cleaning.
The flying device had rarely experienced any issues in its years of operation, and it was unknown why it would suddenly malfunction here today.
After complaining, most passengers accepted the reality, and many chose to leave the flying device temporarily to wander around Scholar City.
Only a minority of people remained very dissatisfied with the flying device’s malfunction resulting in an extended docking period, but they were powerless to change it.
Qin Sisi and Xiao ng didn’t care much about it – they were reaching their destination, so it had no impact on them.
However, Qin Sisi still found the matter rather strange and asked Xiao ng in a low voice, "Do flying devices often malfunction?"
Xiao ng shook her head and replied: "No, at least I’ve never encountered such a thing when I’ve taken them."
By now, the two had descended the staircase, and Qin Sisi looked back at the massive flying device with curiosity before leaving the place with Xiao ng.
They were preparing to rent a carriage near here to go to Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, while Xiao ng was discussing the price with the coachman. All of a sudden, Qin Sisi tugged at her clothes and asked in astonishnt, "Xiao ng, what is that?"
Xiao ng looked up and saw a small, round flying device soaring above their heads. She gazed at it enviously and explained to Qin Sisi, "That’s also a flying device, just smaller in size."
"There are smaller flying devices too?" Qin Sisi truly had her eyes opened.
Xiao ng sighed and said, "Yes, that too was crafted by Master Shuoyu. They’re incredibly expensive; initially, the Jiu Xi Royal Family took the initiative to gather materials, allowing Master Shuoyu to create one for both the Jiu Xi Royal Family and The Eight Great Families."
After thinking for a mont, Qin Sisi asked, "This must have been done by Ye You’s father, right?"
Tian Xiaozi wouldn’t have been so kind-hearted.
Xiao ng nodded, "Exactly, it was a generous gift from Sage Ruler Tian Yu."
Qin Sisi continued to inquire, "Your family has one too, right? Have you ever ridden in it?"
Xiao ng replied with a hint of gloom, "No, my father says flying devices are too expensive and it’s more cost-effective to take larger flying devices. He only permits the use of the small flying device in particularly urgent situations."
Qin Sisi gazed into the sky, where the small flying device had already disappeared without a trace. She asked thoughtfully, "I wonder which family that small flying device belonged to just now?"
Xiao ng responded, "The one we saw just now doesn’t belong to any family; it had no markings denoting its identity. That should be Master Shuoyu’s personal flying device."
The more Qin Sisi heard, the more her heart raced, "Master Shuoyu even has a personal flying device?"
Xiao ng said envyingly, "Of course, he is a genius forgemaster, after all, with enough materials, crafting a small flying device for himself is a piece of cake."
Qin Sisi was utterly thrilled; the career of a forging master was more promising than she had imagined. It seed her choice was indeed the right one.
After Xiao ng settled on a price with the coachman, the two got into the carriage and sped off towards Heavenly Magic God’s Castle in a whirl of dust.
Upon returning to Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, the two first went to Tianhuan Mountain to register for school with Teacher Yusha, and then planned to tidy up their rooms at Tianyue Mountain’s dormitory, as they hadn’t lived there for a month.
Passing by Tianmu Mountain, they were surprised to find the small flying device that had flown over their heads parked on Tianmu Mountain.
Its shell was untarnished white and bore no emblem of identity; it was indeed the personal flying device of Master Shuoyu as described by Xiao ng.
Xiao ng was extrely astonished, "What’s going on here? Why is Master Shuoyu’s personal flying device here?"
After so thought, Qin Sisi speculated, "Tianmu Mountain is where Teacher Ru Lin lives, could Master Shuoyu be friends with Teacher Ru Lin?"
In all honesty, Qin Sisi had no impure thoughts when uttering these words; she was rely stating the facts. However, Xiao ng’s gossipy heart was instantly ignited at the thought of Master Shuoyu and Teacher Ru Lin...
Her eyes darted as she grasped Qin Sisi’s wrist, whispering lowly, "Sister Sisi, let’s sneak up and take a look."
