Shen Yanxiao was very calm as she left with the shop assistant elf. She was wondering whether this Grandmaster Lan Si could successfully modify the Purple Baron; as for everything else... who cared about it.
The elf led Shen Yanxiao through the lobby of an old trading house, then after a long corridor, they arrived at a delicate wooden door at the rear.
Upon arriving at the door, the elf gently knocked and announced, "Grandmaster Lan Si, the customer has arrived."
A very gentle voice came from the room.
"Please come in."
Subsequently, the door slowly opened. The elf stood at the door and made a gesture at Shen Yanxiao for her to proceed inside.
Shen Yanxiao raised an eyebrow and went in. After she entered, she discovered that the wooden door was not opened by someone but it was self-operated.
Inside the room, all kinds of wood were carefully placed on the table against the wall. Various bows were hung on the wall. Compared with the bows in this room, the bows being sold in the trading houses were obviously of lower grades.
"Is this bow yours?" Just as Shen Yanxiao was observing the bows within the room, a questioning voice sounded aloud.
Shen Yanxiao turned around and looked at the source of the voice.
It was a very beautiful elf with silver, long hair that trailed over his shoulders, a jade white face with exquisite facial features, an impeccable appearance that blurred the gender distinction, and a pair of green eyes carrying a little smile. He was looking at Shen Yanxiao who was standing in front of him.
This was the most beautiful elf that Shen Yanxiao had ever seen. However, when Shen Yanxiao's eyes fell on the wheelchair under the elf, she revealed a hint of surprise.
Such a beautiful elf, but he resembled a doll sitting in a wooden wheelchair while a thin blanket covered his legs.
"Are you Grandmaster Lan Si?" Shen Yanxiao was truly amazed by Lan Si's beauty. If Xiu had the most beautiful face that Shen Yanxiao had ever seen, then Lan Si was the most beautiful elf she had ever seen.
Different from the coldness of Xiu, the beauty of Lan Si could make one easily overlook his gender. Perhaps, the natural gracefulness of the elves added a neutral beauty to Lan Si.
If Xiu were the dazzling sun, then Lan Si was the warm moon in the midnight sky.
"Yes." Lan Si smiled at Shen Yanxiao, and his smile was like a spring breeze bringing people warmth.
"Are you the owner of this bow?" Above Lan Si's thighs, which were covered by a blanket, was the Purple Baron.
"Yes." Shen Yanxiao nodded her head. Her first impression of Lan Si was not bad.
Lan Si smilingly said, "Can you tell me where this bow came from?"
"What is the matter?" Shen Yanxiao asked.
Lan Si answered, "Please don't misunderstand, I don't mean anything else. It's just that this bow was actually created by me and my old friend. It has been many years already, and I didn't expect to see it again, so I was curious. I don't want to inquire about your identity. I just miss that old friend of mine." Lan Si politely explained the reason for his question.
The Purple Baron was created by Lan Si along with someone else?
Shen Yanxiao was slightly surprised. She had bought this bow from Master Duan of the Black City. Could it be that the Purple Baron was created by Lan Si and Master Duan?
But...
Master Duan was a human!
Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes and wiped away the doubt from her expression. She said with an innocent look, "This bow was given to me by an old gentleman. But I don't know where he is now. If Grandmaster Lan Si wants to find him, I'm afraid I may not be able to help." She was not lying, she really did not know where in the world Master Duan had gone.

"Yes..." A sense of loss flashed past Lan Si's pair of eyes. He did not doubt Shen Yanxiao's words in the least.
"I presume this is fate, little fellow. I can help you modify this bow, and I won't even charge you any manual costs. However, I have to tell you that this bow is just a semi-finished product. My old friend and I always wanted to make this bow perfect, but unfortunately, there had been some accidents. If you want to modify this into one that is suitable for your use, then the materials must be collected by yourself." Lan Si looked down at the Purple Baron with a trace of attachment in the bottom of his eyes. He had once personally created the Purple Baron, and he naturally knew that the Purple Baron was not suitable for the use of the elves; therefore, he understood perfectly the purpose of Shen Yanxiao for wanting to modify the Purple Baron.
"The Purple Baron is really only a semi-finished product?" Shen Yanxiao was dumbfounded. She thought that the Purple Baron was already so ferocious, she really did not believe... it was actually really just a semi-finished product!
Lan Si nodded his head in response and said, "In fact, you may not have discovered, but the gems inlaid on the Purple Baron are actually a kind of nucleus from the body of demons called crystallic nuclei. The power generated by this crystallic nucleus has a great repelling effect against the power of the source of life of the elves. At first, we thought about making it a multi-element bow. However, the materials for improving it were later not enough. My old friend had gone away in order to look for the materials, but I've gotten no news from him until now. You have to understand that if you want to make the Purple Baron suitable for your use, then you will have to pay a lot."
Their original creation returned to his own hands, but Lan Si could only sigh with sorrow in his heart. In the past, they had no ability to complete the Purple Baron, and he still had no way even now.
Unless some special materials were found, the Purple Baron could only remain a semi-finished product.
Shen Yanxiao became exceedingly amazed the more she heard. She knew about the crystallic nucleus on the Purple Baron, but she really did not expect that Grandmaster Lan Si and Master Duan were so avant-garde as to actually have integrated the crystallic nucleus of the demons into the bow in the past. She was very intrigued that even with Lan Si's status, there were actually still materials that he couldn't get his hand on here in Moon God Continent.
"What material do you need to complete the Purple Baron?" Shen Yanxiao asked.
Lan Si hesitated for a moment before looking at Shen Yanxiao and saying slowly, "The branches of the Tree of Life."
"..." Shen Yanxiao was thoroughly stunned.
Your mother!
The branches of the Tree of Life?!!
If not because Lan Si looked extremely like an elf, Shen Yanxiao would have doubted whether this fellow were the same as herself— a mixed-race in a camouflage.
It must be known that the elves had a great sense of love and protection toward the Tree of Life to the point that it could be called fascination. Not to mention that they would never hurt the Tree of Life even an iota, even if they were to use their own bones to raise the Tree of Life, they would not have any words of complaints.
However...
Lan Si, as an elf, was actually harboring the idea of creating a bow using the Tree of Life. He was simply a special existence among the elves!
Sure enough, the words genius and madman were only one line apart. For research, they would do anything even if it was crazy.
Shen Yanxiao was very glad that Lan Si was not as obsessed as the Warlocks who were still researching the Forbidden Technique on the Radiance Continent. Otherwise, the Moon God Continent might have also gone through a catastrophe.
Shen Yanxiao's silence made Lan Si a little embarrassed. He knew very well how much impact his words had on the elves.
Lan Si's beautiful face faintly blushed, he coughed and darted his gaze away then said, "I know that this answer will be surprising for you, but no material other than the branches of the Tree of Life can modify the Purple Baron."
