Chen Li believed that only a beautiful girl could lure Elysia away from her original position.

When the results came out, many girls were unaware, but it was undeniably beautiful.

"You traitor, have we become so estranged now? I've been thinking of you constantly throughout my years of traveling the stars, missing you terribly," Jingliu said slowly.

Jingliu is practically going crazy with the desire to forge Miraculous Item!

"Alright, Master." Chen Li chose to compromise.

Although the two had not formally become master and disciple, their relationship had already become one in practice...

"Alright, you can call me by my name now." After hearing the way he wanted to be addressed, Jingliu said directly.

"... Seeing you in such a beautiful state of mind, I feel relieved," Chen Li said with a worried expression.

Don't worry? I can't let any out.

"The last time I saw Miss Jingliu was last time, but why do you seem unhappy, Chen Li?" Elysia asked, puzzled.

Although Elysia didn't witness the scene of Jingliu the Dragon Slayer close, Jingliu's silhouette left a deep impression on Elysia.

Elysia had always thought that the relationship between the two was good, and now seeing their rather "free" communication, she was even more convinced of this, but Chen Li looked worried.

"Because my master is a wanted criminal on the Xianzhou." Chen Li looked around and breathed a sigh of relief when he found no one coming this way.

"Then why don't you hurry up and hand over your Disguise Glasses... uh, can you wear glasses while wearing an eye patch?" Elysia was stunned when she saw the black cloth that Jingliu was wearing.

"Sure." Chen Li simply placed his Disguise Glasses on Jingliu's nose without further ado.

"Wait, Chen Li, aren't you a wanted criminal too?" Elysia suddenly realized.

These two, master and disciple, are practically from the same lineage!

Chapter 189 Jingliu: Can I make Baiheng unable to leave me? Then I'll choose Heroic Spirit Miraculous Item!

"You're right, I am indeed a wanted criminal. So I need to use the projected Disguise Glasses." Chen Li put on the Disguise Glasses projected by the Starstones.

Moreover, because Chen Li was only wanted a couple of days ago, she is still quite popular and is easier to recognize than Jingliu.

"Alright, let's find a quiet place to sit down and talk. Those two wanted criminals standing in the street are being too arrogant," Chen Li said.

As the saying goes, a guilty conscience needs no accuser... Anyway, Chen Li couldn't understand why Jingliu could stand so confidently on the streets of Changle Tian.

"It's alright. Hundreds of years have passed. Even if I walked right in front of the Cloud Knight Army, they wouldn't recognize me as a wanted criminal." That's why Jingliu hasn't been caught yet.

The Xianzhou natives have long lifespans, but they often fall into Mara possession after reaching a thousand years of age and are taken away by the Ten Lords Bureau for processing. Now, several hundred years have passed since the Imbibitor Lunae Rebellion, which is half a lifetime for some Xianzhou natives.

"So, Master, you came to the Xianzhou because of me? I can guess that." Sitting in a teahouse by the street, listening to the storyteller's tale, Chen Li nodded knowingly.

"That's right. When I heard that the identity of the Miraculous Forger was renowned throughout the world, I knew you had already appeared. And when I saw your wanted poster on the Xianzhou through special channels, I knew you had arrived, so I came to the Xianzhou ahead of schedule." Jingliu nodded.

"You come to my Xianzhou seeking refuge with me without any clues. Master, aren't you afraid of being discovered by the passing Cloud Knight Army?" Chen Li complained.

"It's not that I'm seeking refuge here. In fact, if I were to be captured, it would be exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately, this year's Cloud Knight Army in Xianzhou Luofu is truly disappointing. After I smuggled myself onto the Xianzhou, I didn't know where to look for you, but a rash Cloud Knight Army very kindly took me to Changle Tian. She said that What If I wanted to find someone, I might have a chance to run into them in this bustling city of Changle Tian," Jingliu said.

Jingliu had already crossed his limits, hovering on the edge of the Mara-Struck. After returning to the Xianzhou, rather than being consumed by resentment and hatred, he decided to blind himself with a black veil and wander freely.

In layman's terms, he was afraid of seeing the scenery of the Xianzhou, and his mind turned dark because of the mind-blowing actions of Imbibitor Lord and Ren.

However, the Black Shark account also caused some trouble for Jingliu, such as finding the way.

However, Jingliu encountered a very enthusiastic Cloud Knight Army... Although the way she spoke made her seem illiterate, she was genuinely kind.

The idea was rather strange; he suggested that Jingliu stand in a busy area of Changle Street and rely on luck to find people.

Fortunately, when Jingliu strolling through the streets of Changle Tian, he was spotted by Elysia, who then followed him all the way.

Therefore, he was able to "meet" with Chen Li at an extremely fast pace.

"This description sounds a bit like a Cloud Knight Army I know, but it can't be such a coincidence..."

"Let's get back to the main topic. You... can you forge Miraculous Item now?" Although Jingliu's eyes were covered by a black veil, Chen Li could still feel his sharp gaze.

"Sure."

"These are items related to Heroic Spirits that I've collected in recent years. Let's see if any of them are usable." Jingliu casually took out several items and placed them on the tea table.

Chen Li looked closely and saw that these items did indeed have a hazy glow.

Touching each one with my hand, I saw the Heroic Spirit attribute with varying brightness.

Besides the Heroic Spirit attribute, there are all sorts of strange entries, such as Death, Knight, Schicksal, etc. Heaven knows where Jingliu found these items.

"It can be used, it can be used in any way, but... I have now created a universal resurrection Miraculous Item. By watching ads, collecting Resurrection Card fragments, and participating in the Revival Match, you can successfully resurrect a person. Master, would you like to give it a try?" Chen Li said, while taking out a Friends Circle Terminal with a Resurrection Card link.

"..." Jingliu remained silent, only staring intently at Chen Li.

"Jingliu seems to be in a bit of a predicament... How about this, Jingliu, you take me as your apprentice, and once we have a master-apprentice relationship, I will help you revive the person you want to revive, how about that?" Elysia suddenly offered a good idea.

After explaining the underlying rules of the Resurrection Card to the Robin, Chen Li directly edited a message and pinned it to the top of his Friends Circle, so now everyone knows about this rule.

But Elysia, do you want to learn swordsmanship? You're clearly just lusting after her body!

However, to be fair, Elysia's idea is theoretically feasible.

The master-disciple relationship is indeed a relationship, but Baiheng can also be considered a master's wife in another sense.

As for whether Elysia is truly sincere in reviving Baiheng?

There's no need to worry about that.

Although Elysia did have ulterior motives, such as wanting to have Jingliu closer and deeper exchange with Elysia, she achieved her goal after establishing a master-disciple relationship.

Therefore, reviving Baiheng can indeed be attributed to Elysia's pure and kind heart.

You don't need to doubt whether Elysia wants to resurrect someone; she wants to resurrect anyone who isn't a bad person.

Or there's an even simpler way: just put Baiheng's picture in front of Elysia and talk about things related to Baiheng, and Elysia will want to revive Baiheng.

"Wow, what a cute girl!"—that's roughly it.

"I can still see with both eyes, but I'm worried that the advertisement might feature scenes from the old days of the Xianzhou," Jingliu said, expressing his concern.

"Don't worry about that. All the current advertisements are for Herta. You won't see a single trace of the old Xianzhou scenery," Chen Li assured him.

"I have another question. What If you were to forge Miraculous Item that could revive Baiheng using the materials I gave you, what would it ultimately look like?"

"It might be possible to create a system that can summon a heroic Heroic Spirit empowered by legendary power using Holy Relics —items left behind by heroes in their lifetime. However, the downside is that she might need your help to recharge, meaning Baiheng might not be able to stay too far away from you," Chen Li said.

"Can't you stay too far away from me?"

"Yes, I can't be too far away from you."

"Then what does 'charging' mean?"

"For example, you need to provide her with magic power, and if the magic power is insufficient, you have to perform a body-body exchange to Mana Transfer. In short, it's a very troublesome thing," Chen Li said.

"...This is it!" Jingliu slammed his hand on the table, leaving a deep palm print on the surface.

"Ah?"

The commotion attracted the attention of those around them and even caught the eye of the storyteller.

"This guest..."

"I'll go explain, you guys continue your conversation." Elysia stood up and went to greet the shopkeeper.

Elysia felt that it might be impolite to listen any further.

"Master?" Chen Li called out softly to Jingliu, who had fallen into an eerie silence after slapping the table.

"This is it... Call it selfishness or selfishness, I just want Baiheng to stay by my side a little longer. I know she will eventually fly to the sky, because she is a restless person, but even just a few days will do. Once Baiheng gets tired of staying by my side, I will use the Resurrection Card to revive her." Jingliu muttered softly with his head down.

"Although it might waste some of your resources to have you specially craft a Miraculous Item for me for such a selfish reason, as long as you can craft this Miraculous Item, I will give you anything you want." Jingliu suddenly looked up at Chen Li.

[Resurrection]: Help Jingliu create Miraculous Item that can summon Baiheng using Heroic Spirit attributes.

Posted by: Jingliu

Reward: 30-40 Crystals

Risk: Low

Resurrection is certainly Miracle, the most classic Miracle.

Although Chen Li's creation of the "Revival Match" has not yet brought Chen Li any additional benefits from others, Chen Li still believes that the Revival Match is preparing a big reward.

Hmm... It's also possible that, apart from Chen Li, no one else has been able to win the Revival Match so far.

"Okay." After glancing at the reward, Chen Li did not hesitate.

To resurrect countless individuals, one would need to craft the Revival Match, One-star Artifact. However, if one only wishes to summon a few Heroic Spirits, a beginner Miraculous Item is sufficient.

Even with the minimum profit of 30 Crystals, Chen Li wouldn't lose money.

Chen Li naturally did not forget the help Jingliu Chen Li gave him in the early stages.

Besides, the Revival Match might not actually be suitable for the Jingliu.

Normally, Revival Matches are quite common; at worst, you just have to watch ads for a few more days, which is just a waste of time.

However, this is not the case for Jingliu.

First of all, the 25 hours of advertising time was a "roller coaster" for Jingliu. After all, anyone would be frustrated if they found that the last fragment just wouldn't explode, let alone Jingliu, who was a patient walking on the edge of Mara.

Secondly, the Revival Match doesn't guarantee victory.

Jingliu is an old man, so he must be very excited to see Baiheng. If Jingliu sees Baiheng lose the Revival Match and die again in front of him, Jingliu might explode on the spot!

As I said before, this is what mentally ill people are like.

"What do you want? I can give you anything," Jingliu said after calming down.

I'm not a professional strategy guide system, but I still want to say something...

Roll!

[Okay!]

"As long as you're happy, that's all that matters. I don't want anything else," Chen Li replied.

Chen Li had prepared many things that would make the show interesting, but because of the Pixie's interruption, he immediately calmed down and casually said what he originally thought.

Chen Li really didn't want anything...

However, if Jingliu could perform a street erhu performance for Chen Li would definitely not refuse.

"... Thank you." Jingliu stared at Chen Li for a while before slowly lowering his head and taking a sip of the tea that had already cooled down.

Although the tea was a little cold, indicating that the tea drinker had drunk it rather late, the taste was still acceptable and enough to "warm" the body.

The tea leaves are a bit young...

But it doesn't matter; the flaws don't overshadow the merits.

Good tea.

[I'm definitely not a professional strategy system. My racking my brains couldn't compare to your flash of inspiration... Chen Li, you truly are a genius in the strategy world!]

"???"

Chapter 190 The way to become Emanator is: to turn Elysia into light!

"I'm back. What are you two talking about?" Elysia asked as she returned after dealing with the shopkeeper who had come over because of the commotion and paying for the table that had been damaged by Jingliu's slap.

"We're talking about creating Miraculous Item of heroic Heroic Spirits," Chen Li said.

"Miraculous Item Heroic Spirits... that sounds interesting."

"Heroic Spirits refer to the souls of fallen heroes who have left their own unique legends or traces in history and are remembered by people. In a certain special world, there is a Hall of Heroes where fallen heroes remain, waiting to be summoned when the world is in crisis to Deliverance. This concept is classic, so I plan to copy it a bit," Chen Li said.

"There must be lots of cute girls in Hall of Heroes, right?"

"...Indeed." After a moment of hesitation, Chen Li nodded.

"I really want to see Hall of Heroes..." Elysia thought longingly.

"... You might not believe it, but I Central Plains had a Heroic Spirit attribute. But the reason I let Master Jingliu collect the corresponding entries herself when we weren't very familiar was because I planned to leave that entry for the Previous Civilization," Chen Li said.
