My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 2271

2271 Grade-Seven Spiritual Fire
“Can you make Big Treasure less talkative when you upgrade him?”

“That won’t do. This fellow’s talkativeness is what’s special about him.” Mo Lian poked her forehead with a grin. He mimicked Big Treasure’s tone of voice, “Ah, my beautiful little master.”

Qiao Mu simply rolled her eyes at him.

She was 200 percent sure that Mo Lian had taught him to say that!

Mo Lian hugged her tightly. “Qiaoqiao, this heavenly fire ferule will get upgraded into a divine weapon in a couple of days. Since you and the ferule have always had a mental connection, you can fuse with it in battle and perform human-weapon fusion.”

Mo Lian paused and explained, “At that time, you’ll be able to use this heavenly fire mithril’s fire spirit.”

“I just checked. After the ferule assimilates this heavenly fire mithril, it should be able to generate a spiritual fire grade seven or higher.”

Qiao Mu was thoroughly alert now. She turned and asked him, “You mean that as long as I fuse with it in the future, I can wield this grade-seven spiritual fire?”

“Mhm.” Mo Lian nodded. “Yes.”

Heavens, she’d be able to wield spiritual fire after assimilating with the ferule! Qiao Mu immediately got excited after hearing this news.

“The greatest difference between a divine weapon and a spiritual weapon is that once you perform human-weapon fusion, the divine weapon will become more powerful.”

“Human-weapon fusion isn’t that easy either.” Mo Lian smiled at her. “But I believe that Qiaoqiao will have no trouble at all.”

“What happens if the fusion fails?”

“The person will suffer injuries, while the divine weapon… will get destroyed.”

Qiao Mu was startled. “The consequences are that severe?”

“Mhm.” Mo Lian nodded. “Divine weapons all have their own sense of perception. If it is unwilling to fuse with the person, it will usually self-detonate, harming both sides, but Qiaoqiao does not need to worry at all. You and the ferule have worked together for so many years. You have long formed a mental connection with it, so it definitely won’t self-detonate and hurt you.”

Qiao Mu nodded. She naturally knew that her Inky was the best.

“This grade-seven spiritual fire is simply not on the same level as your sacred water and sacred wood. Its grade is rather low now, but once we find a heavenly fire mithril with an even higher grade, I’ll reforge the ferule for you again to advance the spiritual fire’s grade.”

Yet Qiao Mu was already extremely satisfied. As someone who had not sensed fire spiritual energy, it was already immense luck for her to be able to wield grade-seven spiritual fire through human-weapon fusion. How could she be even more picky?

“Alright, go to sleep early. I’ll start forging it early tomorrow morning.”

The little fellow promptly hopped off his legs and darted into the inner room. She stuttered, “I-I, I’m going to bathe! Don’t you come in!”

Mo Lian sat obediently on the edge of the bed. “Qiaoqiao, do you need more hot water?”

That night, Zou Huan came to find them as arranged.

Before he could greet them properly, Qiao Mu had already summoned Qingluan. She had the dumbfounded youth sit with them, and they flew toward Jiang Hong’s private compound with his guidance.

When they reached Jiang Hong’s private compound, they found the doors locked tightly.

Qiao Mu and Mo Lian slunk in through the back door with Zou Huan. Zou Huan guided them to the woodshed in the back.

The door to the woodshed door was reinforced with two extra defensive restriction barriers, but it was completely useless against Qiao Mu.

Mo Lian broke the woodshed’s restriction barriers with a burst of spiritual fire.

The three of them kicked open the door to the woodshed, and they saw seven young men who were twenty years old and younger sitting against the wall.

“Zou Huan!”
