The earth-shattering growl caused Zilan to shrink back.
She subconsciously covered her mouth and dared not utter a single word.
âMy apologies, as you can see, our young lady dislikes being disturbed when she is in the midst of refining.â Zilan turned around, looked at the man.
âI really didnât expect that Miss Feng would also be an alchemist,â the messenger replied.
He was a tall man dressed in simple black-brocaded robes. His fair and jaded face was accompanied by a smile.
âThatâs right⦠Our Young Lady is amazing.â When it came to Feng Chuge, Zilan could not help but sound cheerful. âIt is rumoured that our Young Lady is a wastrel, but little do they know that sheâs an extremely talented genius! Those who say our Young Lady is useless are ignorant!â
Helian Zixuanâs eyes revealed endless interest as he listened to Zilan.
Helian Zixuan was the current Emperorâs fifth child, and also the Fifth Prince.
Due to his weak body, he had lived outside the Palace during his youth, but was brought back when he was twelve.
At that time, Feng Chuge was coincidentally also chased out by the Feng Family. As a result, Helian Zixuan had a deep impression of her name.
âIt seems like Miss Feng is really busy⦠Since thatâs the case, Iâll wait for her outside.â
Just as he turned around, a sudden explosion could be heard from the room, followed by Feng Chugeâs laughter.
âHaha⦠Iâve succeededâ¦â
The door was pushed open and endless pungent smoke came out from within, choking those close by.
Feng Chuge walked out from the thick layer of smoke.
Her originally white robes had turned grey by now. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMiss, youâve succeeded?â Zilan asked in surprise.
She knew that her Young Lady had spent a great deal of effort on this pill.
âYep.â As she said this, she immediately headed for another room.
Evidently, she was headed for Ah Chenâs room.
Ah Chen was currently seated on a bed, seemingly controlling the spiritual force within his body.
When the door was suddenly pushed open, Ah Chen looked over and saw Feng Chuge who had dust from her head to toes.
âWoman, what did you do? Did you stick your head into the fireplace?â
Feng Chuge coldly glanced at him. âIt took a great effort to obtain the ice silkworm blood, thousand separation liquid, etcetera. If you think they can be easily worked with, Iâll listen to you then.â
Ah Chen understood what she meant. âYouâve refined the pill?â
Feng Chuge handed over the pill.
It was blood-red in color. When light was reflected on it, the pill radiated a faint luster.
It seemed to give off a familiar look and feel. Ah Chen looked at the pill and his eyes revealed endless surprise.
âThis is what Iâm looking for!â
Ah Chen stretched out his hands, but Feng Chuge easily dodged him.
âI need to mention this upfront⦠This pill cannot accelerate growth. At most it can only eliminate the toxins in oneâs body and prolong longevity.â
Ah Chenâs gaze was fixed on the pill. No matter what Feng Chuge said, he merely nodded along.
The way he looked at the red pill was similar to how a child looked at candies, as his expression was full of expectationâ¦
Feng Chuge handed him the pill only after he nodded in response. âIâm repeating this again: you canât grow up by eating this pillâ¦â
