The Blazing Sun Imperial Capital.
The Central Emperor Palace, located at the center of the Blazing Sunās capital, which was the place where court meetings were usually held to receive foreign guests.
At this moment, Orofa, Jick, and Celie were here. Zhou Manage was sitting on the throne not far away from them.
Zhou Manage looked at Jick and Celie and felt the genuine God-Tier Professionals aura on them. He couldnāt help but smile.
āThank you, Your Excellency Orofa.ā
Zhou Zhou turned to Orofa and smiled.
āYouāre too kind, Your Excellency.ā
āThey are my disciples and granddaughters to begin with. They contributed to nurturing them. Why would they need to say the word āhard workā?ā
Orofa hurriedly said.
After the Battle of Aus, the shocking fact that the Common Peopleās Regal in front of him had the combat power of a Master God-Tier had already spread to the myriad worlds. The Sun Divine Court where Orofa was was no exception.
Even the two supreme existences of the Sun Divine Court and the Great Lunar Court personally praised Zhou Zhou, the Common Peopleās Regal, after learning of his deeds. He was an unprecedented peerless Lord!
Any Master God-Tier had to be polite to a top-notch lifestyle God Spirit like Orofa even though Orofa was only a top-notch True God-Tier divine artifact forger,
However, they would just be polite. It didnāt mean that āHeā was more honorable than a Master God-Tier.
A true Master God-Tier existence had a much higher status than āHimā.
When he found out that Zhou Zhou had the combat power of a Master God-Tier, and that even Regal Great Solar and Regal Great Lunar were extremely polite to the Lord of The Blazing Sun, Orofa no longer felt any arrogance toward Zhou Zhou.
Therefore, āHisā current attitude was very humble. āHeā even subconsciously tried to curry favor with āHimā.
When Zhou Manage saw Orofaās obvious change in attitude, he was a little surprised. Then, he thought for a moment and understood the reason.
āHeā smiled faintly and suddenly asked,
āI wonder what plans Your Excellency has for the future?ā
Orofa was stunned for a moment before falling silent.
After a long while, āHeā whispered,
āI plan to return to the Sun Divine Court and continue to sharpen my forging skills. I hope to have the chance to advance to the level of the Creator of Artifacts in the future.ā
āThe Creator of Artifacts?ā
Zhou Manage raised his eyebrows and sized him up. Then, he shook his head in his heart.
āHeā could see that Orofaās potential was indeed at the Master God-Tier level.
However, having the potential of the Master God-Tier level did not mean that he could definitely advance to that level of Extraordinary-Tier profession.
And Orofa could not be promoted to the Master God-Tier Creator of Artifacts profession from āHisā perspective because āHeā had too many connections in āHisā heart.
These connections allowed āHimā to have more, but they also made āHisā talent in artifact refinement mediocre.
āYes.ā
Orofa couldnāt tell what Zhou Manage was thinking. He looked at Jick and Celie after saying that. Then, a smile appeared on his face. He said respectfully to Zhou Manage,
āYour Excellency Regal, Iāll leave these two juniors to you. I donāt have any other requests. I just hope that the two of them can be safe and sound.ā
āYour Excellency, you donāt have to worry about that. As divine artifact forgers, Jick and Celie spend most of their time creating and repairing equipment at the rear. Basically, they wonāt be in any danger. Even if they do encounter any danger, as long as our Blazing Sun Empire is still around, nothing major will happen to them.ā
When Zhou Manage said this, his tone was very calm, but this calmness contained unparalleled and unquestionable confidence.
Even Orofa was infected by the confidence in Zhou Manageās words. He relaxed and nodded with a smile. āThen Iām relieved.ā
āOh yes.ā
āThis is the pseudo-racial divine artifactāShadow Canopyāthat Your Excellency gave me last time. Iāve completely repaired it, and the effect is even stronger than before. Please take a look, Your Majesty.ā
After Orofa finished speaking, he flipped his right hand and saw a divine object that emitted a faint black light like a black veil appear in āHisā hand.
It was the pseudo-racial divine artifactāShadow Canopy!
With a thought, Zhou Manage saw the Shadow Canopy teleport in front of āHimā.
Zhou Manage took it and looked it up and down. Then, he smiled.
āHeā praised Orofa.
āAs expected of the God of Forging and Sun, Your Excellency Orofa. This Emperor is very satisfied with this restored pseudo-racial divine artifact.ā
āYour Excellency, this pseudo-race divine artifact has already accumulated a large amount of power of faith. If thereās a certain opportunity, this pseudo-race divine artifact might be able to transform into a true race divine artifact.ā Orofa said.
Zhou Manage nodded.
Then, they chatted for a while. Orofa turned around and looked at Jick and Celie with reluctance. Then, he looked at Zhou Manage and stated respectfully.
āYour Excellency, itās getting late. I should return to the Sun Divine Court.ā
āIf Your Excellency still needs to repair True God-Tier Divine Artifacts or racial divine artifacts in the future, you can look for me through Celie and Jick. If I canāt repair them, I can ask the divine artifact forgers I know for help.ā
āThat would be great.ā
Zhou Manage smiled.
Orofa nodded. Then, he glanced at the Imperial Palace and was about to leave.
At this moment, Zhou Manageās voice suddenly sounded behind āHimā.
āBy the way, Your Excellency Orofa, I wonder if Your Excellency has considered the matter that This Emperor mentioned last time?ā
Orofa turned around and respectfully said,
āI know Your Excellencyās good intentions, but Iāve been in the Sun Divine Court for many years. It can even be stated that Iāve been in the Sun Divine Court for most of my life. I really canāt suddenly let go of all these and turn to Your Majesty nowā¦ā
āHowever, if Your Majesty needs anything, you can look for me through Jick and Celie. As long as I can do it, I will do my best!ā
āIn that case, thereās actually no difference whether I join Your Excellencyās Blazing Sun Empire or not.ā
Things had become different.
Orofa did not dare to be as arrogant as last time, so he had already rejected her as tactfully as possible.
āThe organization Iām in is the Sun Divine Court, and youāre only the ruler of an Empire-Tier Lord faction. Even if youāre powerful and have a bright future, Iām already standing at the end of most life forms. Why should I give up everything to join you?
Zhou Manage fell silent seeing this.
When Orofa saw this, he wanted to turn around and leave again.
āYour Excellency Orofa, you probably want to advance to the level of Creator of Artifacts, right?ā
Zhou Zhouās voice sounded.
Orofa stood still and said helplessly and complicatedly,
āWhich weapon cultivator in the Endless Heavens doesnāt want to reach the extreme realm of the Creator of Artifactsā¦ā
āHowever, in This Emperorās opinion, Your Excellencyās chances of accomplishing this are slim.ā
After Zhou Manage completed speaking, he pretended to shake his head regretfully.
Orofa suddenly turned around and stared at Zhou Zhou. He stated angrily,
āWhat do you mean, Your Excellency?!ā
As a True God-Tier divine artifact forger who was loyal to the art of craftsmanship, āHeā definitely could not tolerate others saying that āHeā could not reach the realm āHeā dreamed of.
This was because āHeā had been trudging along this path to begin with. As āHeā advanced, āHeā often doubted if āHeā could do it.
If he met the other party who stated such things again, it would be no different from adding insult to injury.
āHeā was really afraid that āHeā would believe such words. Then, āHeā would appear unchanged on the surface, but in fact, āHeā had already lost the pursuit in āHisā heart.
It was worse than killing āHimā for such a God Spirit!
Furthermore, āHisā teacher had previously stated something similar to āHimā.
Under the double questioning, even if the opponent was the Common Peopleās Regal that āHeā couldnāt deal with, āHeā couldnāt control his emotions.
