"Alright, since little friend has put it that way, I won't be overly polite."
Being secretive would instead cause the other party to suspect him; in that case, he might as well be straightforward!
Sure enough, as Xiao Lin's voice fell, the last trace of suspicion regarding Xiao Lin in Xu Mo's eyes dissipated.
"Please speak, Senior. Also, Senior can just address me by my name."
Facing an expert who had at least reached the rank of Dou Zong, Xu Mo naturally kept his attitude very humble.
However, while his attitude was humble, as a disciple of the Falling Star Pavilion, the Pavilion Master had told them on their first day of joining: the Falling Star Pavilion does not look for trouble, but it is not afraid of it!
It had to be said that as Yao Lao's close friend, Feng Zun Zhe managed the disciples of the sect very strictly. In Feng Zun Zhe's own words, he wanted to take good care of the Falling Star Pavilion for Yao Lao and wait for his return!
"Good. Xu Mo, I have actually been searching for various weapon-refining materials. I wonder if Sky Star City has any materials that meet my requirements."
At this moment, Xiao Lin stated his request.
If he had the help of Xu Mo, the son of the Sky Star City Lord, Xiao Lin believed that his collection of materials for refining weapons would be much faster.
"Oh? What refining materials do you need, Senior Lin? If they are in Sky Star City, I will definitely help!"
Xu Mo patted his chest and guaranteed at this moment.
Actually, for Xu Mo, he believed his father would definitely be happy to make friends with an expert above the rank of Dou Zong who bore no ill will toward Sky Star City. After all, one more friend meant one more path, right?
"I need Meteoric Metal and Star Sand!"
These were the two top-tier refining materials that Xiao Lin wanted to obtain most right now.
However, as Xiao Lin's voice fell, Xu Mo's face froze once again.
Good heavens, as soon as he opened his mouth, it was the most top-tier refining materials!
It wasn't that he wouldn't help, but there truly weren't any in Sky Star City!
Such top-tier refining materials were basically snapped up by people the moment they appeared on the market. To them, a good weapon was equivalent to a second life.
"What? Sky Star City doesn't have these two kinds of refining materials either?"
Looking at Xu Mo's frozen expression, Xiao Lin asked with a hint of disappointment.
Xiao Lin also didn't expect that a large city like Sky Star City actually wouldn't have the presence of Meteoric Metal and Star Sand. Just as a look of disappointment appeared on Xiao Lin's face, Xu Mo suddenly remembered something!
"Wait, Senior Lin, my Sky Star City indeed does not have these two refining materials, Meteoric Metal and Star Sand, right now, but I know a place that does!"
As Xu Mo's voice fell, a sharp glint suddenly flashed through Xiao Lin's eyes.
Finally, there was news of these two refining materials!
"Please tell me, I will definitely provide a heavy reward!"
Xiao Lin promised with extreme solemnity.
Searching aimlessly like this was truly too difficult. Now that there was finally news, he didn't want to miss it.
"Senior Lin, there's no need to be polite. I am also very happy to be able to help you. Actually, although my Sky Star City doesn't have these two refining materials, the sect I belong to, the Falling Star Pavilion, does!"
Xu Mo spoke with absolute certainty.
"The Falling Star Pavilion has them?"
"Correct!"
Xu Mo affirmed again.
"Senior Lin, you should know that my Falling Star Pavilion is built within the Sky Star Mountain Range of the Central Plains' Southern Region."
"Back then, Pavilion Master Yao and Vice-Pavilion Master Feng of my Falling Star Pavilion used a piece of extraterrestrial meteorite as a foundation to establish the current Falling Star Pavilion within the Sky Star Mountain Range."
Xu Mo suddenly began to talk about the history of his sect, the Falling Star Pavilion.
Hearing this, Xiao Lin had already guessed the general idea.
"Are you saying that within that extraterrestrial meteorite, there is Meteoric Metal and Star Sand?" Xiao Lin couldn't help but ask.
"Yes. If the two Pavilion Masters had merely discovered an ordinary meteorite, how could they have used it as a foundation to establish today's Falling Star Pavilion?"
Whenever the Falling Star Pavilion was mentioned, Xu Mo would show a look of pride.
As a disciple of the Falling Star Pavilion, even though the sect's prestige was no longer what it once was, he felt proud to be a part of it! Furthermore, his father, the current City Lord of Sky Star City, had also come out from the Falling Star Pavilion.
One could say that Xu Mo's entire family was essentially bound to the Falling Star Pavilion.
"Xu Mo, do you know the conditions for obtaining the Falling Star Pavilion's Meteoric Metal and Star Sand?"
Putting everything else aside, this was the point Xiao Lin cared about most at this moment. To be honest, if this were the Yellow Spring Pavilion, Xiao Lin would likely have charged right through their gates to seize it by force.
But the Falling Star Pavilion was different.
If he attacked the Falling Star Pavilion now, he wouldn't know how to face Yao Lao in the future!
After all, the ring hiding Yao Lao's soul was still in his hands. Therefore, Xiao Lin could only obtain the Falling Star Pavilion's materials through legitimate channels!
"Well, generally speaking, for treasures like Meteoric Metal and Star Sand, the Falling Star Pavilion won't just exchange them casually. But there are exceptions! Such as completing an external commissioned mission from the Falling Star Pavilion!"
Seeing Xiao Lin inquire, Xu Mo spoke eloquently.
"Oh? What kind of external missions does the Falling Star Pavilion have?" Xiao Lin followed up.
"As far as I know, the most important external mission is to find traces of Pavilion Master Yao."
"One could say that as long as there is information regarding Pavilion Master Yao's whereabouts, you can pack up the Meteoric Metal and Star Sand and take them away. Not only that, my Falling Star Pavilion would even owe you an enormous favor!"
This was the Falling Star Pavilion's most well-known commissioned mission.
In fact, to find Yao Lao's tracks, the Falling Star Pavilion had even utilized their connections within the Pill Tower. However, so many years had passed, and not a single person had truly found Yao Lao's whereabouts.
One could say the difficulty of this mission was Hell-grade!
However, this mission—which others viewed as having Hell-grade difficulty—was something Xiao Lin could complete with a snap of his fingers.
Yet, Xiao Lin had his own considerations. Unless absolutely necessary, he was not prepared to let Yao Lao return to the Falling Star Pavilion just like that for the time being.
Compared to his own long-term plans, the Meteoric Metal and Star Sand were actually not that significant. Thus, after a brief moment of being tempted, Xiao Lin abandoned the idea of accepting this mission.
"Does the Falling Star Pavilion have any other external commissioned missions?"
After secretly shaking his head, Xiao Lin inquired again.
Seeing Xiao Lin's head-shaking motion, Xu Mo only assumed that Xiao Lin thought the mission was too difficult and had given up. After all, it had been ten years, and their Pavilion Master remained without a word!
Little did he know, Xiao Lin simply felt it wasn't worth it.
"In the past, there might not have been any. But recently, there is indeed another external mission. Completing this mission will also allow one to obtain Meteoric Metal and Star Sand from my Falling Star Pavilion."
After thinking for a moment, Xu Mo spoke again.
In fact, the reason he had left the Falling Star Pavilion this time to return to Sky Star City was precisely for this second external mission!
His father was the City Lord of Sky Star City and could happen to provide assistance.
"Oh? And this external mission is...?"
To Xiao Lin, as long as the road wasn't blocked, everything was negotiable.
"My Falling Star Pavilion is currently in urgent need of a Formation Master's help!"
Xu Mo didn't hide anything and spoke directly.
As Xu Mo's voice fell, Xiao Lin's eyes immediately lit up!
The specialty matched perfectly!
