"You bastard, you want me to refine more Ninth-grade Mysterious Pills for your Ancient Clan. Yet when you sold me that useless patch of wasteland before, you were already thinking of squeezing money out of me. Now that I've given you what you wanted, damn it, you want to extort another huge sum from me."
Looking at the "pitiful" beauty in his arms, Lin Feng gnashed his teeth inwardly. Gu Xun'er, when did you become such a scheming bitch?!
However, Lin Feng appeared to ponder seriously for a moment before saying with some difficulty, "As for refining pills, the next few months probably won't work. Xun'er, would three or four months from now be alright?"

But not long ago, I successfully completed that half-finished pill. I've also prepared the supplementary pills needed to refine the Ninth-grade Mysterious Pill, so I plan to take it soon and improve my strength."
As he spoke, Lin Feng tightened his arms around her,
