Chapter 35: Gao Ge
Feeling the change in his body, Xu Zhengyang nodded with satisfaction.
He said, “With the dicinal power of the Vermilion Marrow Blood Ginseng in my body, I will definitely reach the Innate Realm before the opening of Sunset Cloud Blessed Land! Next, while I record the properties of spirit materials and improve the database, I should also prepare for entering the blessed land!”
Saying so, Xu Zhengyang did not waste any ti.
He imdiately rode a Paper Crane Talisman toward Divine chanism Palace, ready to prepare the experintal equipnt he needed ahead of ti.
……
A mont later, at Divine chanism Palace.
As Xu Zhengyang piloted the Paper Crane to land, Guest Elder Liu Baoshan was strolling outside the palace, smoking a dry‑tobacco pipe with a “clack‑clack” sound.
Seeing Xu Zhengyang, Liu Baoshan greeted him with a smile, “Yo, Third Young Master is here?”
“Elder Liu,” Xu Zhengyang replied.
“Here to find your master?”
Elder Liu said regretfully, “That’s unfortunate timing — Elder Pei just took on an order. He’s busy in the Fire Chamber right now; won’t be out for a good couple of days.”
“I’m not looking for Master.”
Xu Zhengyang smiled and said, “I ca this ti to have so things custom‑made at the workshop.”
“Oh?”
Elder Liu put away his pipe and motioned for Xu Zhengyang, “Just in ti, I’m free now. I’ll take the Third Young Master there!”
Xu Zhengyang quickly thanked him, “Thank you very much, Elder Liu!”
“Hey.”
Elder Liu waved off the gratitude, “Why thank ? Not long ago, Elder Pei already spoke to the workshop head, Elder Gao, saying that if the Third Young Master cos, whatever Elder Gao can do, he must cooperate without cutting corners. I’m just showing you the way.”
As they spoke,
Elder Liu led Xu Zhengyang toward the workshop, chatting casually with him along the way.
……
The workshop head at Divine chanism Palace, Gao Ge, was a mature and beautiful woman, always dressed in a long, bright‑red dress.
The cut of the dress was exquisite, tracing Gao Ge’s ample curves just right, displaying an alluring charm.
After a brief introduction by Liu Baoshan,
Gao Ge showed no expression, businesslike, and asked Xu Zhengyang, “I wonder, Third Young Master, what is your mission this ti?”
Although Gao Ge was a mid‑Foundation Establishnt cultivator, she had been entrusted with the position of workshop head by Pei Zhen.
However, she had also been recruited as a guest elder by Pei Zhen, so, like Liu Baoshan, she had to address Xu Zhengyang as Third Young Master.
“I pay my respects, Elder Gao.”
Although Gao Ge addressed him as Third Young Master, Xu Zhengyang, being only a Qi Refining Level Cultivator, dared not show any airs before a Foundation Establishnt cultivator.
Then,
Xu Zhengyang took a stack of white paper from his Jade Gourd Talisman and said to Gao Ge, “Please, Elder Gao, dispatch the disciples in the workshop to create so glassware for based on these design blueprints.”
Before coming to Divine chanism Palace,
Xu Zhengyang had already drawn detailed blueprints of everything he needed on the white paper, to aid the workshop staff’s understanding.
There were front views, top views, left views;
For so glass items with complex structures, Xu Zhengyang even drew sectional views and enlarged detail diagrams.
With diagrams this detailed,
Any experienced craftsman would know at a glance how to make them, saving Xu Zhengyang a lot of explaining.
……
Although Gao Ge looked beautiful, she had always been fully engaged in every task.
Inside and outside the Divine chanism Palace workshop, Gao Ge had taken on everything alone—an unquestionably powerful woman.
Because of this,
After quickly flipping through the stack of design blueprints Xu Zhengyang had given her, Gao Ge instantly realized their value.
After reviewing the blueprints,
Gao Ge’s eyes lit up and her tone softened slightly, no longer as stiff as before, saying, “Third Young Master, this set of blueprints is quite ingenious. I imagine quite a bit of thought went into these?”
“Making things convenient for others makes things convenient for oneself too.”
Xu Zhengyang smiled upon hearing this and said, “Please, Elder Gao, assign people to produce these little gadgets for according to the design blueprints.”
“These aren’t just trivial little gadgets.”
Gao Ge flipped through the blueprints and pointed at the diagrams, saying, “So of these items are very simple, such as those glass cups of various shapes. For items like these, as long as there’s a specific design and asurents, even an apprentice can mold them.”
At this point,
Gao Ge separately took out the design blueprints for the rcury thermoter and the serpentine condenser, pointed to them, and said, “But so things… For example, this glass column containing rcury; Or this one with nested internal structure, with glass tubes arranged in a spiral; These require soone skilled in fire-control techniques to manipulate the fla and blow the glass precisely.”
Saying this,
Gao Ge put away the stack of design blueprints and said to Xu Zhengyang, “Although these gadgets don’t demand high-grade materials, they are extrely demanding in craftsmanship. Because of this, I will need at least three days on my side to complete all these small items.”
“Three days?”
Hearing this, Xu Zhengyang couldn’t help showing a trace of regret and thought:
【Looks like I’ll have to wait three days before cataloguing the properties of the spirit materials… That’s fine. I can use this ti to draw more trigger‑style talismans and finish the order I promised to Yang Hong first.】
With that in mind,
Xu Zhengyang cupped his hands in salute to Gao Ge and said, “If that’s the case, I’ll rely on Elder Gao. I’ll co by the workshop again in three days.”
“Why let the Third Young Master go through the trouble for such a small task?”
At last Gao Ge smiled and said to Xu Zhengyang, “Just return. Once everything is completed, I’ll imdiately send soone to deliver them to Twilight Shadow Pavilion.”
“In that case, thank you, Elder Gao.”
Having achieved his purpose, Xu Zhengyang cupped hands again toward Gao Ge and Liu Baoshan and said, “Elder Gao, Elder Liu, I’ll take my leave for now!”
……
After Xu Zhengyang left,
Liu Baoshan and Gao Ge exchanged polite words, and just as Liu Baoshan was about to leave, he suddenly noticed Gao Ge personally walking toward the Fire Chamber.
Liu Baoshan grew curious in his heart and thought:
【It’s just so glass items—but is Workshop Head Gao going herself into the Fire Chamber to make them?】
Although curious,
Liu Baoshan was not one to ddle, so after bidding farewell to Gao Ge, he returned to the second floor.
……
Returning to Twilight Shadow Pavilion,
Xu Zhengyang took out cinnabar and talisman paper, preparing to draw talismans for Yang Hong.
Suddenly,
Xu Zhengyang felt a stirring in his heart—it was Da Fei in his spirit‑beast pouch waking up.
After employing the Blood‑Oath Beast‑Taming Technique,
Xu Zhengyang and Da Fei shared a heart connection, so Xu Zhengyang imdiately sensed that Da Fei was calling out in hunger.
“You’re really a hungry eater!”
Xu Zhengyang laughed and scolded, then took Da Fei out of the spirit‑beast pouch and also took out a Fasting Pill to feed him.
But just as Xu Zhengyang removed Da Fei from the pouch, he noticed that Da Fei had not only grown noticeably larger, but his body had undergone so different changes!
