Upon hearing this, Luo Jin's eyes flashed slightly. He smiled at Xiao Yan, cupped his hands again, and said:
"Brother Yan Xiao, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Xiao Yan smiled and returned the greeting with a cupped hand:
"Brother Luo Jin, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Luo Jin nodded, refrained from further pleasantries, and went straight to the point:
"Brother Yan Xiao, the cracks on your giant ruler have penetrated deep into its core. If you're not careful, it could break in two. At that point, even if you fuse with all the rarest treasures in the world, it might be completely impossible."
"Your previous attempt to force the fusion will only worsen the damage to this giant ruler. If you do it again, it will likely be destroyed."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression changed slightly. If this were the case, and the Heavy Xuan Ruler were to actually break in two, he would become the culprit who caused all of this.
Thinking of this, and considering the importance of the Heavy Xuan Ruler to him, Xiao Yan instantly felt a sense of guilt deep in his soul.
Fortunately, none of this happened, otherwise Xiao Yan would probably have really gone berserk and gone to kill the Third Hall Master to seek revenge.
Xiao Yan's eyes and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He swallowed hard, his throat bobbing, before he snapped out of his daze at Luo Jin's words.
After thanking Luo Jin, Xiao Yan Luo Jin him with a slightly anxious tone:
"May I ask, Brother Luo, what is the method of repair you know? This giant ruler is quite important to me, and I hope you can tell me."
Upon hearing this, Luo Jin did not explain directly, but instead asked Xiao Yan another question.
Luo Jin stroked his chin with one hand, his eyes darting around a few times before he seemed to be guessing as he asked Xiao Yan:
"Brother Yan Xiao, if I'm not mistaken, the forging material of your giant ruler should be the rather rare Flame-Fallen Black Iron, right?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow slightly, somewhat puzzled as to why Luo Jin had asked such a question, but he still nodded in agreement.
Luo Jin seemed to have anticipated Xiao Yan's doubts, and before Xiao Yan could ask, he continued with a smile:
"And the method of repair I'm referring to is related to this Flame-Fallen Black Iron."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's eyes lit up. In that case, it was indeed the best way to repair the Heavy Xuan Ruler.
The Heavy Xuan Ruler was originally forged from Flame-Fallen Black Iron, so repairing it with Flame-Fallen Black Iron would naturally be incredibly simple.
Of course, Xiao Yan had already thought of such a simple method, but the Flame-Fallen Black Iron was not so easy to find.
Flame-Fallen Black Iron is one of the rarest weapon materials on the continent, with extremely limited quantities. Every appearance of it causes a stir and shakes the continent.
Xiao Yan himself believed that the Flame-Fallen Black Iron used in his Heavy Xuan Ruler might be the last piece in the world, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Upon hearing Luo Jin's words, Xiao Yan roughly understood why Luo Jin had asked about the material of the Heavy Xuan Ruler. It seemed that Luo Jin knew where to find the Flame-Fallen Black Iron.
Xiao Yan felt much more at ease and turned his gaze to Luo Jin. Luo Jin didn't say anything, but smiled and nodded at Xiao Yan.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Yan was overjoyed, but Xiao Yan Luo Jin's words immediately made his expression turn serious.
After nodding to Xiao Yan, Luo Jin spoke:
"I do know where the Flame-Fallen Black Iron is, and I even know that it's a piece of Flame-Fallen Black Iron that's several meters wide. However, there's a person there whose strength is probably around the level of Eight-Star Half-Emperor."
Xiao Yan's lips twitched violently a few times, but he endured it in order to repair the Xiao Yan Heavy Xuan Ruler.
"Moreover, to be precise, he is not a person, but a magical beast, a high-level magical beast that has taken human form."
Luo Jin emphasized the words "high-level magical beast," which made Xiao Yan's expression even more serious.
A magical beast comparable to Eight-Star Half-Emperor was indeed too terrifying for Xiao Yan.
After a long while, Xiao Yan turned his gaze to Luo Jin again, frowned, and asked:
"Since that's the case, I suppose Brother Luo has something he wants in return, otherwise he wouldn't have come to me for cooperation."
Upon hearing this, Luo Jin gave a slightly embarrassed smile and explained to Xiao Yan:
"For me alone, this would indeed be quite troublesome; I could easily lose my life. But now that we have each other, the chances of success are naturally much greater."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression remained somewhat unnatural, but in order to repair the Xiao Yan Heavy Xuan Ruler, he was willing to go all out.
Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed, and he asked Luo Jin:
"Brother Luo, since you know so much about what that magical beast is holding and how strong it is, you must be quite familiar with it as well. Could you please explain the origins of this magical beast?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Jin knew that Xiao Yan had already been brought aboard the ship, so he spoke directly:
"That magical beast is called the Cloud-Splitting Wolf. It is a magical beast known for its physical strength in the Beast Realm. Its physical strength is enough to tear a Three-Star Half-Emperor to pieces. It lives alone on Qinggang Mountain Lianyun Mountain Range. There is no other magical beast with a stronger body within tens of thousands of miles."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan frowned slightly. It seemed that the Cloud-Splitting Wolf was quite formidable. It lived alone and occupied such a large mountain range. He wondered if it would make the continent inhospitable if it were stronger.
Xiao Yan exclaimed in amazement for a long time, and then couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
"It's good to have strength! No one dares to offend us. Ghost Fiend Gate, although I don't know why you know so much about my background, since you insisted on making me take action, then next time, don't blame me!"
