Inside the cave, Lu Xun looked at the neatly arranged fifty paper cranes inside his storage ring, a contented smile appearing on his face.

This was the fruit of his recent hard work.

“Indeed, hard work leads to wealth, there’s no doubt about it!” Lu Xun thought to himself.

As for how he got these materials, it was just a small anecdote on the road to becoming rich.

“I guess it’s enough for now, I won’t refine artifacts for a while,” Lu Xun decided.

It wasn’t that he thought his third senior brother couldn’t shoulder the cost anymore, his third senior brother seemed to be a lot more lavish than he imagined, seeming to not mind providing a large pile of spirit stones for his little junior brother’s random experiments.

The main reason was that he truly couldn’t eat anymore! Seeing Lu Xun’s increasing appetite, the third senior brother was preparing larger portions of meals recently!

And possibly because of the excellent feedback from his dinner guest, he was enthusiastic about cooking lately, creating a myriad of innovative dishes. Lu Xun felt like his tongue was damaged, it wasn’t as agile as before…

This was horrifying! How can a person function without an agile tongue!

Enough! I can’t continue eating like this!

“Let’s take a break for now. I’ll have plenty of opportunities to mine this vein later. There’s no rush, I shouldn’t torture myself by eating like this,” Lu Xun thought.

Lu Xun glanced at the paper cranes again, pondered for a while, and had a new idea.

“When I sell these in the future, I can sign my name on them,” Lu Xun stroked his chin, thinking that this was a great idea.

For an artifact refiner to engrave their signature on their creations, it made perfect sense!

With the popularity of Purple Palace among the players, it was much higher than those star level professional players.

In his previous life, their signatures could fetch a high price, so there was no reason why his limited edition signature paper cranes wouldn’t appreciate in value, right?

Lu Xun even felt that he was already on the path of becoming a “virtual idol”.

In the eyes of the players, isn’t he, this NPC, almost equivalent to a virtual idol?

“Purple Palace signature edition, anyone would be tempted!” Lu Xun thought, “How much should I increase the price by then?”

He suddenly felt that he was quite business-minded, which was a waste considering, how he used to play as a Lone Ranger in “Heavenly Dust”.

However, players didn’t currently know the real identity of the Purple Palace, he could just reveal it when the public test starts, that shouldn’t be an issue.

Although he couldn’t post on the forum, his Sword-serving Child, MO Guanji, could act as his mouthpiece.

“Speaking of which, what has this guy been up to lately? How hasn’t he posted anything on the forum?” Lu Xun had been silently keeping tabs on his Sword – Serving Child.

It was a pity that he seemed to have evaporated from the world, showered with so much attention on the forum, yet he chose to go missing.

Everyone was still waiting for him to release more videos or photos related to the Purple Palace!

“Could it be that he died suddenly again?” Lu Xun thought.

After closing the [Backpack], Lu Xun was about to pick up the sword sheath to leave the cave when he heard a “plop” sound.

A pearl rolled out from the hole in the sword sheath.

“Isn’t this the Yin bead I shoved in last time?” Lu Xun looked at the dull pearl that had fallen on the ground.

“Why did it shrink?” He inspected it carefully.

“Hiss–! This bead appears to be ruined, the stuff inside has been sucked dry by the sword sheath. The dense Yin Qi previously had condensed into a liquid form, but now there’s not a single drop left.”

He gently knocked on the sword sheath with his finger, and said, “Good job, you really did a number on it in just a few days!”

The black cord on the sword sheath fluttered a few times, as if in protest, as if saying, “It’s obviously because it ran out too soon, just a few sucks and it was drained dry.”

But indeed, the pearl, although filled with pure and surging Yin Qi, to the sword sheath, it was far from sufficient for upgrading.

This Yin bead didn’t even qualify as a main course, at best, it was just an appetizer.

Lu Xun looked down at the Yin Bead, which looked no different from a plain marble, and thought to himself: “What a luxury, this pearl was originally obtained by the combined efforts of two large guilds on a secret mission.” At this time, Lu Xun thought of the Repair Rune in his storage ring.

The Yin Bead is Inferior Blue Equipment, and the Repair Rune should be able to restore it.

So, Lu Xun asked: “Do you still need Yin Qi?”

The black rope on the sword sheath shook a bit, indicating that what it lacked was not Yin Qi, but something else.

Lu Xun nodded. That was good, he could save the Repair Rune.

And after restoring it, giving it to the sword sheath to absorb again would seem quite cruel.

Let it leave peacefully like this.

He tentatively stepped on the Yin Bead lightly, and it shattered into pieces as soon as he touched it.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk,” Lu Xun gently knocked on the sword sheath with his finger and said, “Next time don’t be so harsh, just absorb the Yin Qi, that way I could still sell the shell for money in the future.”

The black rope on the sword sheath rubbed against the back of Lu Xun’s hand a few times, as if it was coquettishly seeking favour.

The only thing that Lu Xun regretted was that this Repair Rune was of no use to Lin Chan’s Broken Sword Partridge Sky. It could not be used on it.

It made sense, this sword seemed to be Superior Blue Level on the surface, but who knows what level it actually was.

If the Blue Level Repair Rune could work on it, that would be impressive.

If it was, Lu Xun would definitely use a Duplicate Rune to copy it three times and then use the Repair Rune to restore it!

Although he can’t use the sword himself, he could give it to Little Chan. Then she would have four Partridge Skies, a Natural Sword Embryo!

Just thinking about it was exciting!

“What a pity,” Lu Xun sighed in his heart. “I was getting my hopes up too high.’

After Lu Xun came out of the cave, he did not choose to walk back. Rather, he rode a paper crane back.

The third senior brother had already taught him the method of Artifact Control Technique for flying. It was the basics for now, and it had only cost him 1000 Experience Points.

He could learn more advanced Artifact Control Techniques later, it would just cost more Experience Points.

He rode the “Second Paper Crane” he had refined and flew back to the top of the mountain. This was intended to show off to his third senior brother.

The third senior brother glanced at him and nodded slightly.

“Little Junior Brother used up more than thirty sets of materials to make the first paper crane and used up tens of sets to make the second one. As long as he progresses and is happy, that’s good enough,” the third senior brother loved Lu Xun dearly. After all, who can resist Lu Xun giving face every time they had a meal together?

When Lu Xun returned to the Small Study, he found that the third senior brother and Mao Nanbei were busy putting up couplets and Fu characters.

It’s hard to imagine that the legendary Small Study back on the mountain, what they did before Chinese New Year was no different from ordinary families.

Actually, they could complete these tasks in a moment using Spiritual Power, but everyone preferred to do it themselves. It felt more real that way.

“Little Junior Brother, do you think this is straight?” asked the third senior brother.

“It’s straight, it’s straight,” Lu Xun replied.

As for this New Year, he initially didn’t have any expectations for things like red packets.

But what surprised him was that the master had locked himself in his room early in the morning, saying he was preparing New Year’s gifts for them!

How could he accept such kindness!

Lu Xun was already looking forward to it.

“Given the master’s status, what kind of New Year gift will he prepare?”
