Making Do Will Be Fine

Lu Qing'an nodded, then looked at the pile of Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone ore.

You choose one.

Golden Dragon glanced at the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone and finally randomly selected one that looked the best.

"That one, then."

Lu Qing'an glanced at the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine that Golden Dragon had mentioned, and poured out his Power of the Dao Source.

The Rule of Vitality acted upon the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone vein, instantly causing it to tremble.

Golden Dragon watched this scene intently, his heart pounding with excitement, giving the impression that he was already itching to try.

In a short time, the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine gained sentience.

"It will have a moment of sentience for one hour. Use this time to test it out, get to know each other, and that's all. I won't say anything more here; you can decide for yourself."

Lu Qing'an wasn't one to gossip, so after saying that, he turned and left.

The Golden Dragon stared longingly at the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine. Under the influence of the Rule of Vitality, the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine had indeed gained sentience and was rapidly transforming into other forms.

Because the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone vein is a very long vein, its transformation primarily targets long and narrow species.

This Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone vein did not transform into a dragon, but instead turned into a black snake.

Golden Dragon looked at the black snake, then looked around in confusion, blinking his large, lantern-like eyes.

It's not what I imagined!

This looks absolutely hideous!

The Golden Dragon stepped forward. "Hello, hello, congratulations on gaining intelligence!"

The black snake looked at the Golden Dragon with a puzzled expression. "Greetings, senior."

Upon hearing this, Golden Dragon was instantly stunned.

Why is it a male voice?!

Although the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone veins have no gender distinction, once they develop sentience, they will become whatever gender they perceive themselves to be. Since they voluntarily consider themselves male, they will definitely need to find a female vein to "fall in love" with other Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone veins!

Now look what's happened! Lu Qing'an got him a Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine, also from a public vein, so he can practice dating with him?

"Why are you a male lineage? I actually think it would be better to be a female lineage. Why don't you change it now? It's not too late!" Golden Dragon tried to entice him.

"I think I'm quite good at being a public servant," Black Snake said.

"No, no, really no, you should become the mother lineage instead." The Golden Dragon's lips twitched involuntarily upon hearing this, and it uttered another seductive whisper.

"I am of the male lineage and female lineage, and I have no relation to you, senior," the black snake said.

Golden Dragon fell silent.

If you're a public figure, how can I possibly date you?!

But the other party was so stubborn, there was nothing he could do. He couldn't very well beat him up and force him to change from a male to a female lineage!

Having no other choice, he ignored the other party and decisively flew towards the courtyard.

Soon, Golden Dragon found Lu Qing'an and cried, "Master, after the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone Mine gained sentience, it insisted on becoming a public mine. Tell me, how can we fall in love when we're both public mines?!"

Lu Qing'an blinked as she listened to Golden Dragon's aggrieved voice.

No, they're all from the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone vein, why are you distinguishing between male and female?

"Didn't you want to try dating? This is the trial stage, and it's only for an hour. Don't worry about whether it's a male or female relationship, just go ahead and date."

Lu Qing'an didn't want to waste too much of his Power of the Dao Source Power of the Dao Source. He preferred to use it more on deducing the rules. The Golden Dragon's current behavior most likely meant that it wanted him to give another Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone vein sentience into existence.

Anyway, the goal is to let the Golden Dragon try falling in love, not to make it fall in love forever. After all, the spirit of the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone Mine will disappear after an hour.

Upon hearing this, Golden Dragon was on the verge of tears.

How could this be?!

Golden Dragon said pitifully, "Alright, I'll try to talk to them first, but next time you grant them intelligence, please do something to make them the mother lineage, I'm begging you."

Okay, okay, then I'll practice my chatting skills first this time.

Lu Qing'an smiled calmly, "That's right, isn't it? Now is practice time. Use it to practice how to communicate and how to get to know the other person better. There are techniques to all of these. Dating is something you have to learn step by step. Once you've mastered it, when you meet someone you like, it'll all fall into place in no time, right?"

Golden Dragon could only nod upon hearing this. Although there was a tiny bit of truth to it, he still felt a little awkward.

Lu Qing'an watched the Golden Dragon fly away in that direction before returning to his cultivation to continue enhancing his soul strength.

His soul strength is still not strong enough. Given the current state of the Golden Dragon, he still can't form a contract with it. He always feels that something is missing. Therefore, he needs to quickly improve his soul strength so that forming a contract with the Golden Dragon will be more reliable.

If he waits until the Golden Dragon reaches the Peak Eternal Realm, then if the Golden Dragon wants to betray him and escape his tracking range, he won't be able to do anything about Golden Dragon.

No matter what, the Golden Dragon is a top-tier Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine; we can't let it get away.

The Golden Dragon returned to the black snake.

Let's reintroduce ourselves.

And so, the Golden Dragon began to talk to the black snake.

At first, it felt very awkward and spoke in a somewhat hesitant manner.

But as the conversation deepened, it gradually found its footing and unknowingly began to develop some affection for the black snake.

And just like that, an hour passed quickly.

After the Rule of Vitality exhausted their Power of the Dao Source, the black snake sensed the changes within itself, looked at the Golden Dragon, and said, "Senior, my intelligence is about to disappear. I enjoyed my time with you, and I hope we'll have another chance to chat. Goodbye!"

After the black snake finished speaking quickly, its form froze instantly. A flash of light passed by, and it transformed back into the appearance of the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone Mine.

Golden Dragon watched this scene and, for some reason, felt an indescribable sense of unease.

"Okay, we'll have to wait until next time."

On the other side.

After Li Wensong led Zhang Shundao and Li Muchen away from the Eternal Night Sect, they sat down together again on the continent of Lianxin to drink tea and chat.

Li Wensong looked at Zhang Shundao and Li Muchen: "You two can contact those two weapon refiners now."

Lu Qing'an assigned this task to the two of them, and he had to help them advance it.

Upon hearing this, the two nodded in agreement.

However, they asked each other a question before contacting each other.

"The weapon refiner I mentioned is that old man Chu Xuantie. Who is the weapon refiner on your side?" Zhang Shundao asked, looking at Li Muchen.

Li Muchen's expression was strange. "The one I know is Leng Xinghe..."

After confirming that the other knew a weapon refiner, the two fell silent instantly.

These two are notoriously at odds.

They might even end up fighting bloody if they get together!
