"You asked? And what was the result?
That Master Han, he hasn't started yet, has he?
Get the materials back, now!
I already contacted Master Wu from the Celestial Workshop for you. He's a proper, officially certified Artifact Refiner.
You might have to wait in line, but his work is reliable!"
Lei Xiao's voice grew louder.
Lei Hu lowered his head, his voice even quieter:
"Long Xiao said... the Master already took the materials. He's started refining."
"What?!"
Lei Xiao shot to his feet, squeezing the custom-made teacup in his hand so hard it began to CRUNCH.
"Took them? This fast? He's so obviously screwing you over!"
"A deposit of twelve hundred Spirit Coins, plus the Armor-Piercing Profound Gold that's worth over three thousand Spirit Coins!
That's more than four thousand Spirit Coins! You're just going to throw it all down the drain? You kid, do you think money grows on trees?"
