"The Princess recently dispatched her people to all the major merchant houses and shops to purchase Refining Materials. Things like Senluo Skin, Mingxin Strange Sand, Broken Mountain Gold, and Fire Separation Jade... those are all materials for crafting top-tier Divine Artifacts! You can't buy them even if you have the money. I heard she's mobilized the entire Red Fox Clan and still hasn't found more than half of the materials she needs..."
Kong scratched his head. With no outsiders around to watch him, he spoke without restraint. "Tsk. I wonder when that good-for-nothing Princess got interested in Artifact Refining. I bet it'll be just like every other time—she'll give up after a few days."
Yun Qi drew a piece of Red Jade from his sleeve. It was translucent, smooth, and utterly free of impurities—clearly a fine, ice-like specimen. "Coincidentally, I acquired a piece of Fire Separation Jade in my youth. I want you to deliver it to the Princess on my behalf."
