Chapter 629 - 629 Straight to the Passage

629 Straight to the Passage

Xue Fanxin allowed Ye Jiushang to pull her along. After a long time, she reacted and asked, “Ah Jiu, what’s that condensate iron?”

“It’s a taboo in the world of refining. Any refiner who uses the condensate iron will be condemned. In serious cases, they will be punished and can no longer refine weapons for the rest of their lives. During the process of refining, adding a little condensate iron can greatly increase the success rate of the artifact. However, it’s a poisonous substance. It won’t be a big problem if you occasionally touch it. If you come into contact with it for a long time, it will be like being poisoned slowly. You won’t even know how you died.”

Ye Jiushang explained the matter patiently. If it were anyone else, forget about explaining, he probably would not even look at them.

Xue Fanxin had never been treated coldly by Ye Jiushang, so she did not feel much about it. “How did you discover that the ring contained condensate iron? There must be a Treasure Appraisal Master in the Purple Cloud Tower. The ring must have gone through inspections to be showcased here.”

“Have you forgotten that I’m also a refiner? Ordinary refiners can’t discover something like condensate iron. However, when you encounter a high-level refiner, even if you use a little, you can’t hide it from their eyes.”

“So there really is condensate iron in that ring? The Ouyang family actually used such a thing to refine artifacts. If word gets out, their reputation as the number one refining family will be swept clean.”

She was worried about dealing with Ouyang Xiangxiang, but she had not expected the opportunity to come knocking on her door.

God was really helping her!

“It’s not as simple as you think.” Ye Jiushang flicked Xue Fanxin’s head, not letting her be happy too early. “Master Ouyang is a straightforward and righteous person. It’s impossible for him to use condensate iron. Furthermore, the condensate iron in that ring has been specially processed. Even a high-level refiner can’t sense it. Only by breaking the ring and extracting the condensate iron inside can others see it.”

“You mean that this ring did not come from Master Ouyang?”

“Yes and no.”

“I don’t understand.”

“It’s fine if you don’t understand now. You will in the future. Let’s go. I’ll take you to see a few people.” Ye Jiushang walked into a secret room.

Only then did Xue Fanxin realize that they had unknowingly walked into a strange room.

“Ah Jiu, what’s this room for?”

“The direct passageway to the fifth floor.”

“Ah?”

Before Xue Fanxin could understand, a weird light suddenly lit up in the room. Then, there was a flash. She felt a little dizzy as if she had lost weight. However, it quickly disappeared. In the blink of an eye, everything returned to normal.

“What’s going on?” Xue Fanxin did not dare to move, looking around warily.

Ye Jiushang smiled and said, “We’re on the fifth floor. Let’s go.”

“The fifth floor? We’re here so quickly? Could this room be an elevator?”

“What’s an elevator?”

“The elevator is… I don’t know how to explain it. Anyway, it’s a tool to go up and down.”

Not only was this Purple Cloud Tower luxurious and dazzling, but it was also so advanced. It was really shocking.
