Towards Eternity
Ch 618s
Du Zhe and Weng Lou's training went on for three days, when then the figure of Weng Ying Luan appeared in the garden above the palace and stopped Weng Lou who was swinging his hand which was holding a hammer.
Weng Ying Luan directly threw a ring at Weng Lou. Weng Lou caught the ring and looked at the contents inside. He was shocked to see the contents inside and stared at Ying Luan for a while.
"You didn't steal all this money, did you?" ask Weng Lou.
Ying Luan looked angrily at Weng Lou's question. He pointed towards Weng Lou and spoke in an annoyed tone to him.
"God you know, I never steal. All this money I've earned by working hard for a few days. You don't know what kind of danger I'm in to get that kind of money."
Weng Lou shrugged both of his shoulders while speaking indifferently to Ying Luan.
"The person who wants me to make weapons for him is you, so it's your job to collect the materials needed. But since I am a good person, I want to make a weapon for you without charging you the slightest fee. So you should be thanking me, not looking at me like I'm the villain."
Weng Ying Luan could only smile wryly and restrain herself from retaliating against Weng Lou's words any further. He had said indirectly before that he wanted a weapon made by Weng Lou, so he could not resist or refute.
A small smile was seen at the corner of Weng Lou's lips as soon as he saw Ying Luan had already been obedient to him.
"It's good that you understand. Take this back, I don't need it. I've put a list of the ingredients needed in it along with how much is needed. You should get everything in the city. If there's any material you can't find, meet me. I will try to get her from the people of the Lin Family. They won't be able to refuse my request after keeping me locked up in this place" explained Weng Lou.
"Now go, don't disturb me and my students who are practicing." Weng Lou added.
Without speaking anything, Weng Ying Luan immediately left reluctantly. He flew up and darted away towards the inner city.
As soon as he reached the gate, he immediately went down and walked like the others within the city. His Qi flowed into the storage ring returned by Weng Lou. He looked at the piece of paper inside and then took it out.
The paper was only as wide as his palm, and there were approximately twenty different types of materials.
When he started reading the first material listed on the paper. His breathing suddenly became heavy and his mind became dazed.
"White Rice Metals of the best quality?!" He almost choked himself when he said it.
Then turning and looking at the second ingredient, his breathing became increasingly heavy and his eyes widened like disbelief.
"Sky Metal! He actually wrote down the Sky Metal! What kind of weapon needs the Celestial Metal materials! I just want a pair of gloves, not god's hands!"
Weng Ying Luan had to stabilize herself because of her shaken mind. After a while, he ventured to read the other materials written on the paper.
He who had calmed down, was again made shaken and unconsciously he had bitten his lips to the point of bleeding. He refrained from saying with his own mouth the materials written on the paper.
"This must be a scam! Lou must be tricking me! What the fuck?! Is it true that a pair of gloves no larger than a dagger would deplete this much precious materials?!"
Weng Ying Luan began to doubt the paper in her hands. But then, he immediately let out a long sigh and convinced himself to just follow what Weng Lou asked him to do. With a heart full of reluctance, he began to look for one by one the materials on the paper.

Although the ingredients are indeed traded, but it is not easy to get them.
It's not easy, even for one ingredient. Ying Luan had to spend all day just to find the person selling the best quality handful of White Rice Metal. Then at night, he had to search furiously to find the person selling one or two pieces of Celestial Metal the size of a baby's fist.
He did not expect it would be this difficult to find the materials written by Weng Lou. He wasn't sure if all of these materials he could find inside the city.
From what he knew, there should be approximately four impossible materials could exist here.
After spending a week, Weng Ying Luan finally managed to find sixteen different ingredients on the list of required ingredients. Only four materials remained, and were the main ingredients in the manufacture of his weapon.
Even so, he could not find all four of them, despite already browsing through more than half of the shops within the city.
He was not sure, the other store he had not visited sold the remaining four ingredients. And also, he wasn't sure he would be able to afford it if anyone sold.
Currently his money was no more than twenty percent left. From his estimation, the remaining four materials should have taken up half of the total money he had if he had not used them and were still in full condition.
"Haaahs..... That damn Lou, I have to what about these four things I haven't got? My money will obviously not be enough to buy all four, at most I will only get two out of four ingredients. Argh...my head hurts!"
Ying Luan ruffled her hair and continued walking down the city. Unknowingly, he had already walked up to arriving in front of the Treasure Pavilion within the city.
One of the places within the city that he had never entered was this Treasure Pavilion. He deliberately left it out later in case he did not find the ingredients he was looking for in the smaller shops.
"I'll go in and ask if they have the four ingredients I need. If they really sell it, I should be able to get it" Ying Luan said, finally standing right in front of the entrance of the pavilion.
As soon as his figure stepped into the pavilion, he was immediately approached by a beautiful girl who looked the same age as him and spoke respectfully to him.
"Honored Master, do you intend to shop at our Treasure Pavilion, or are you about to attend the auction?" the girl asked as she looked at Ying Luan in a certain way that really added to her charm.
Flashing, Weng Ying Luan completely ignored the girl's gaze and immediately answered her.
"I'm here to buy some mineral. So far I haven't found a place that sells them in the city, so I came here to look for them, who knows you might sell them," obviously Ying Luan while staring at the inside of the pavilion that looked nuanced like a library, with many cabinets and glass shelves displaying the contents inside.
The girl smiled faintly and looked interested in Ying Luan's statement. If he really hadn't gotten the mineral materials he wanted, then coming to this place was definitely the best choice.
"Master, what kind of ingredients are you looking for? Can I figure it out?" ask the girl.
"Sure, sure. One of the materials I was looking for was called the Silk of Glass Spiders. I need at least one roll that's the size of my fist. Do you guys have it?"
A confused face appeared on the girl's face. He had just heard the name of the Glass Spider Sutra. He did not know what kind of material it was until Weng Ying Luan could not find it sold outside the Treasure Pavilion.
"E-Ehm! Is there anything else you want?" The girl hurriedly hid her confused face.
He did not dare to say that he did not know the materials that Weng Ying Luan had told him, so his only choice was to be professional and try another fortune by asking the other Ying's needs.
