When he stepped out of his room, he saw Chen Jun, one of Chen Hongyue's attendants, coming out of her room.
"Didn't I tell you to stay in your room? What are you doing out here?" Shi Yue asked with a frown.
"Please forgive me, Senior. I love fine wine, and it's been ages since I've had any. I was craving some, so I wanted to go to Drunken Immortal Wine Estate and buy a few jars of spirit wine," Chen Jun explained with an awkward smile.
"Without my permission, you are not to leave your room. Go back and rest. If you do this again, you will be punished without mercy," Shi Yue said coldly.
Chen Jun's face paled. He quickly agreed and turned to return to his room.
Shi Yue called Xie Chong out and told him to keep an eye on Chen Hongyue and the other two, and not let any of them interact with anyone else.
"What is it, kid? You think there's something wrong with Chen Jun? So he likes to drink. What's the big deal? You're being too sensitive."
"Better safe than sorry. We should still be cautious."
After leaving the inn, Shi Yue hired a guide and visited several large material shops. He spent more than ten million Spirit Stones to buy the remaining materials, purchasing three of each.
Back at the inn, he immediately entered the Exquisite House, set the Artifact Refining Room's time flow to ten times faster, and began refining the Profound Cold Jade Pendant.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Half a month passed outside, while five months went by in the Artifact Refining Room.
Shi Yue sat cross-legged on a Green Pillow. A pure-white jade pendant floated before him, radiating an astonishing chill.
