Qing Yanjing smiled and nodded. She had also sensed the person outside the door. After putting away the pill, she controlled the spirit array, and the gates of the Secluded Courtyard opened automatically.
The person already standing at the entrance froze for a moment, then understood that he must have been discovered long ago. He walked through the gates.

Xiao Ming had also taken the medicinal ingredients and the Azure Rock Green Flame, so he had guessed who had refined the pill.
