Primordial Cultivator

"What do you mean you should operate on it?" Yang Wei held a fierce expression as he held her hand tightly.

"There's no way I'm letting you operate it and receive the backlash from the energy blaster." He added.

The energy blaster might have seemed to be extremely powerful and deadly.

However, there was one major flaw of it, and that was the usage of the energy blaster is extremely difficult.

To activate it, one must exhaust their entire spiritual qi, almost to the point where your body would be sucked dry by it.

Therefore, Yang Wei would never let Jing Feng take such a risk. He cannot afford to lose her.

Meanwhile, Jing Feng was simultaneously angry at Yang Wei.

"So you're telling me, you can risk yourself to save others, but I can't risk myself to save you?" She asked in a deadly tone.

Yang Wei remained silent.

There was no winning in this argument, so it was better to keep his mouth shut. Otherwise, it might escalate the situation further.

Jing Feng also calmed herself as there was no point in reprimanding him further.

"What's done is done, and I won't be some petty woman that will continue to scold you over that." Jing Feng said.

Yang Wei's eyes lit up as he was about to extend his hand for a hug.

Alas, Jing Feng quickly slapped his hand away. Instead, she extended her hand out.

Yang Wei raised an eyebrow.

"The energy blaster," Jing Feng demanded.

"It's too dangerous to leave the energy blaster in your hand, so I shall confiscate it." She added.

"C-Confiscate it?" Yang Wei was alarmed.

Right when Yang Wei was turning helpless, a voice suddenly transmitted into his ears.

"Yang Wei, she wanted to take the energy blaster from your hand, so that those with evil intentions on that item would focus on her instead of you." Fan Ping explained.

"But that's the last thing I wanted to happen." Yang Wei responded through a mental transmission.

She had suffered enough in the past already, and he would not want her to suffer any longer.

"Just calm your emotions a little bit, Yang Wei. Jing Feng is a mature and understandable woman to not use such a deadly item as reckless as you are." Fan Ping teased.

And he continued, "Just let her confiscate it since I doubt we would ever need to use it again."

'They have finally arrived here after all…' Fan Ping thought.

Sometime later, Yang Wei sighed softly as he nodded his head.

Since even Fan Ping said to let her keep it, then there's no point in safekeeping the energy blaster for himself.

After all, Yang Wei has full trust in Jing Feng and if letting her confiscate it will ease her feelings, then it's a win-win situation.

Call him a simp or whatever, but that's what you do when you truly love someone.

"Here you go, Jing Feng." Yang Wei said as he handed the energy blaster over.

Jing Feng didn't even bother to give it a proper look as she directly stored the energy blaster in her storage ring.

She then smiled blissfully at Yang Wei for not struggling.

"Thank you, Yang Wei… for trusting me," Jing Feng said with a somewhat bashful expression.

Normally, an item such as the energy blaster would definitely be safeguarded by the owner no matter what.

They won't even give it to their close ones in fear of losing it. These were the types of people that Jing Feng saw daily in the past.

Thus, seeing Yang Wei easily give up the energy blaster, she felt her heart-melting from his trust and love for her.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei pulled her closer to embrace her and proceeded to explain the energy blaster function.

"Jing Feng, remember to never use the energy blaster unless necessary. The backlash that could occur is unimaginable, and I don't want to see you getting hurt from it." Yang Wei said.

Jing Feng nodded her head.

"Anyway, should we practice some alchemy just like the old days?" Jing Feng suddenly suggested.

Hearing her words, Yang Wei recalled their first meeting and how he became a medicine boy.

"Don't underestimate me, Jing Feng." Yang Wei said cheekily.

"You may not have seen it, but I have been practicing my alchemy ever since I went exploring."

"Save your cheekiness and confidence once we have a battle, Yang Wei."

"Oho, a battle huh? Do I get a reward for refining a better pill than you?"

Jing Feng snickered coldly as she pushed him away. She then stood up and held a profound aura around her.

"It's still too early for you to declare yourself as the winner, Yang Wei." Jing Feng said with a mysterious smile.

"Watch how I'll shatter your confidence."

"Very well then, I will not refine half-heartedly."

Sometime later, Jing Feng and Yang Wei went toward the backyard as they retrieved their alchemy furnace.

Afterward, Jing Feng flicked her sleeve, and numerous medical ingredients appeared on the floor.

Just as Jing Feng was about to speak about the rules, Yang Wei suddenly laughed heartily.

"Jing Feng, don't tell me you planned on defeating me with those medical herbs?" Yang Wei asked, trying his very best to hold back his laughter.

"What's the problem with my medical herb?" Jing Feng asked in a somewhat annoyed tone. She didn't like how Yang Wei was laughing at her precious medical herb like that.

These were all the medicinal herbs that she had rarely used since they are scarce and unique here.

Yang Wei continued to laugh for a few moments before snapping his finger.

Soon, an abundant amount of medical herbs appeared around Yang Wei, shocking Jing Feng deeply to the core.

"H-How??" Jing Feng muttered in disbelief as she took a step forward to inspect the medical herb closer.

"Where did you find all these rare herbs?" She asked in a dumbfounded tone.

"Rare herbs? These are just my daily stash of alchemy practice, Jing Feng."
