Offering Salted Fish To Master

These defensive weapons were of various kinds. Some were jade hairpin, bracelets and earrings, and some were arm rings and anklets. She could wear these, but couldn’t wear the qr;ors. They were in size XXXL. How could she wear them?　

One armor had a big shield with a round shape and the pattern that looked like a tortoise shell. She was afraid that Sima Jiao wanted to transform her into a mobile fortress.

Liao Tingyan saw Sima Jiao picking up a heavy nose ring, and he seemed to be satisfied with it. She felt a little sad about his aesthetic’s premature death. She stepped forward and held his hand, “Just forget this nose ring. Well, if I really use it, I’m afraid it will fall off.”

Sima Jiao: “Huh? is this a nose ring?”

Liao Tingyan: “Yes, this nose ring is probably for a cow. It’s too big, so I just don’t want it.”

Sima Jiao: “I think it can work.”

Liao Tingyan: …Shizu! I can’t!

He passed it to Liao Tingyan and picked up shoulder armor. It was an oversized shoulder armor covered with crystal barbs, which could be worn by a strong man with 18 pack abs. He took quite a liking to it and took the shoulder armor.

Liao Tingyan didn’t expect his preferences to be so wild, and she couldn’t control the expression on her face. Sima Jiao walked in front, as if he could see Liao Tingyan’s expression, and laughed.

Liao Tingyan didn’t give up. She pulled Sima Jiao’s robe, “Is all this for me?”

Sima Jiao said slowly, “Of course they are all for you.”

Liao Tingyan had to show off her strength of acting like a baby, “But I don’t like it!”

The corner of Sima Jiao’s mouth turned upwards, and he heard Liao Tingyan scold him in her heart, which was fierce. He picked up a very beautiful jade necklace, showed it to Liao Tingyan, and asked, “Do you like this?”

That jade necklace was decorated with auspicious clouds of jade swallows, a silk pattern, inlaid with red orbs, and golden tassels. There were also fine patterns on the necklace, which was very delicate.

Liao Tingyan: “I like it! Look how good this looks!” 

If the ancestor was normal, he would have normal aesthetics.

Sima Jiao threw the jade necklace aside and said, “Unfortunately it’s not a defensive weapon, so we don’t need it.”

Oh, sh**.

What’s the matter with this man? Did  he really have feelings for me? That’s simply plastic feelings! (Plastic: unreal)

Shi Yuxiang was the boss in Fenghua City. No one cared about her, and all the people who were serving her were a group of little white faces who had low cultivation but looked pleasing enough. Liao Tingyan arrived and she had more freedom than in the academy. She didn’t even have classes now, and she still felt leisurely on vacation.

The place where Shi Yuxiang lived was better than that in the academy, and it wasn’t worse than the Bailuya Palace. It could be seen that the treatment of the Shi family members was really super good. Since arriving in this world, Liao Tingyan had seen too many gorgeous palaces and too many treasures, and now she somewhat regarded money as clouds.

She was now the most violent master, living in the most gorgeous room… wearing the ugliest defensive magic weapon.

After Liao Tingyan went back, she refused to wear that bunch of things and threw herself straight on the soft bed, buried herself in the blanket, motionless, and protested in silence.

Sima Jiao ignored her. He didn’t look at her any more. He only took those things and went to other places. Liao Tingyan didn’t hear anything from him, so she got up and looked for him, but she didn’t see anyone.

Liao Tingyan: Shizu must be doing something.

She felt that Sima Jiao was just teasing her. He was a man of several hundred years old. Sometimes he was as naive as a child. It wasn’t wrong to say that he was a primary school kid. She had a primary school nephew who was more stable and mature than him. Her nephew would give flowers to the little girl he liked, and he would bring her milk to drink in the morning.

Liao Tingyan curled her lips, found a comfortable table outside and sat down. She then sorrowfully took out a bottle of pills and gnawed two pills. This was taken from the treasure house. At that time, she just thought the bottle was good-looking, so she picked it up and looked at it. Sima Jiao glanced at it and said that the pill tasted alright. After looking at it calmly, Liao Tingyan brought it back.

For some reason, she always felt dry after waking up from the high fever, and she was restless while doing nothing. Regarding this as a small sugar pill for clearing away the heat, she ate two of them, and felt peaceful.

Liao Tingyan: I even miss the scriptures to worship Buddha.

Sima Jiao found a quiet room for cultivators, and those defensive instruments were randomly piled aside. He dismantled them one by one, pondered them, and then smelted them into various round beads and patterns.

Finally, he took out the jade necklace that had been thrown out in front of Liao Tingyan, and smelted the beads with the magic weapon.

　　…

Liao Tingyan woke up in peace and found that she was squeezed aside. Sima Jiao took her spacious throne and let her lie on him.

She got up and noticed that there was a little more weight on her chest, and looked down to find a necklace.

This jade necklace was originally beautiful, but with more small beads and flowers, it looked even better. The ancestor pretended to throw it away before, but he had got it back. She felt it carefully, and then realized something was wrong.

Originally, the function of this jade necklace was storage, which was a bit tasteless for the cultivator of the Soul formation stage who got their own space, but now it seemed to be a defensive weapon with additional storage function.

She fumbled and checked it for a while, and was speechless. 

What kind of person was Sima Jiao? How could he refine tools?

Sima Jiao opened his eyes and looked at her. Liao Tingyan picked up the necklace, “You made it by yourself?”

Sima Jiao snorted from his nose as an answer.

She was curious, “Where did you learn this?” The lessons she had listened to were not for nothing. The teacher said that basic knowledge was quite comprehensive. The refining method was super difficult. Like the mathematics and physics in modern students’ courses, one couldn’t understand without talent.
