Out of the Ordinary

"Yao Lao's alchemy skills are formidable. Is he lacking some medicinal ingredient now?"

Xun Er pondered this. Even the cleverest housewife could not cook without rice. Xiao Yan Gege was so anxious now that he was probably short of some medicinal ingredient. This happened to be her specialty—no matter how rare the ingredient, the Ancient Clan could gather it!
