Zi Yan's Delight

Seeing Zi Yan's somewhat ingratiating smile, Lin Qing felt speechless. He had simply been observing closely and thinking about some things; it wasn't that he wasn't going to help. Why was he being treated like a bully?

"I was just thinking about adding something special to it. Do you want the same flavor as last time, or would you like something different?"

"No need to change the flavor, just the sweet kind from last time is fine!"

"Alright, also, I need this Medicinal Herb, but I have a better Medicinal Herb here. Would you like to exchange it?"

After saying that, Lin Qing flipped his hand, and the five-thousand-year-old Dragonblood Lingzhi that the Hao Clan had given him appeared in his hand.

"Then let's take the one you have!"

As soon as the Dragonblood Lingzhi appeared, she felt that the energy inside this blood-red Ganoderma was more abundant than the Medicinal Herb in her hand, and there was also a trace of the same bloodline as hers, so Zi Yan immediately nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Zi Yan agreed, Lin Qing didn't stand on ceremony. He put the Blood Python Branch away in a Jade Box, then took the Dragonblood Lingzhi from the Dragonblood Lingzhi Jade Box containing it.

"Please have a seat for a moment, it'll be ready soon!"

After saying that, Lin Qing took out the Medication Cauldron and placed it on the open ground of the living room. With a thought, a cluster of crimson flames rose from his palm, and the surrounding temperature began to rise as well.

The moment the Medication Cauldron appeared, Zi Yan felt something on Medication Cauldron that attracted her. However, the instant she saw the flames, a look of panic flashed in her eyes, and she immediately moved further into the sofa.

Seeing her reaction, Lin Qing was not surprised. Most Magical Beast, except for Magical Beast with fire attributes, are averse to, disgusted by, or fearful of fire.

"Hehe, don't be afraid. Flame is essential if you want to refine Medicinal Pill or Medicinal Pellet."

Lin Qing glanced at the somewhat frightened Zi Yan, said something, and then threw the flame in his hand into the Medication Cauldron. Seeing the flame enter the Medication Cauldron, Zi Yan's tense nerves gradually relaxed, and her eyes revealed an expectant light.

Lin Qing also entered the refining state, taking out a bottle of Tier 5 Royal Jelly from his Storage Ring, and some Medicinal Herb. Some of these Medicinal Herbs were given to him by Xiao Shuang before, some were third- or fourth-grade Medicinal Herb left over from refining Medicinal Pill, and some were low-grade Monster Core. He planned to refine them into Grain-Fed Pill, because he also planned to refine the snacks for Xiao Qi and the others.

Seeing Lin Qing take out so many Medicinal Herbs, Zi Yan assumed they were all seasonings, which filled her with delight.

The three Xiao Yi Xian standing to the side were somewhat surprised, not by Lin Qing's pill-refining Medicinal Pill, but by his flames.

They remembered that Lin Qing's flames used to be a deep yellow, so how did they suddenly turn crimson? And the power of the flames seemed to have become even more terrifying.

As the Medication Cauldron warmed up, Lin Qing casually tossed Medication Cauldron Dragonblood Lingzhi into it. Then, with a change in his hand seals, the previously weak flames instantly surged.

As time passed, the Dragonblood Lingzhi gradually melted into a red liquid under the scorching flames. Then, Lin Qing waved his hand, and a ball of royal jelly was directly thrown into the Medication Cauldron, where it then merged with the medicine inside.

With rapid hand seals, a ball of red liquid was quickly divided into dozens of smaller clumps. These clumps then solidified into red Medicinal Pellet, which spun around on the Qingxuan Spiritual Flame.

"This refining process is really simple!"

Lin Qing had always thought how wonderful it would be if refining Medicinal Pill could be this easy! Unfortunately, it was simply impossible!

Looking at the Medicinal Pellet radiating red light, Lin Qing waved his hand, and dozens of red Medicinal Pellet shot out from the Medication Cauldron with a burst of red light, finally landing in the Jade Bottle in his hand.

"Here, give it a try. It should taste the same as last time!" Lin Qing said with a smile, handing the Jade Bottle to Zi Yan, who was looking at him expectantly.

"Mmm." Nodding repeatedly, Zi Yan quickly poured out a red Medicinal Pellet, ignoring the residual warmth on it, and threw it directly into her mouth, chewing it vigorously.

"Delicious, just like last time!" Zi Yan chewed the Medicinal Pellet in a few bites and swallowed it. She licked her lips, looking at the Jade Bottle in her hand with a hint of lingering satisfaction.

Then her gaze fell on a pile of Medicinal Herb in front of the Medication Cauldron. Lin Qing noticed her gaze and explained.

"Those were made for other people."

"Hiss!" ×2

Seemingly having heard Lin Qing's words, Xiaocai peeked her little head out from his collar, and a small red snake on Qing Lin's wrist also stirred, preparing to emerge.

"Xiao Shuang, be good! I wasn't talking to you just now!" Qing Lin patted his sleeve and said softly.

With a hiss, the Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake reappeared and fell silent.

"What kind of Magical Beast is this?"

Zi Yan looked at Xiaocai with some curiosity, Xiaocai, noticing her gaze, quickly looked away.

"This is my pet Magical Beast! Its Xiaocai!"

"Oh!"

Having never interacted with Medusa, Zi Yan wasn't interested in Xiaocai; instead, she focused her attention on the Jade Bottle in her hand.

Zi Yan poured out a Medicinal Pellet, threw it directly into her mouth, and chewed it vigorously.

"Hehe! It's so delicious!" Zi Yan said with a satisfied smile as she chewed.

Of course it tastes good! The addition of Tier 5 royal jelly not only improves the texture of the Medicinal Pellet but also adds some energy.

He has dozens, dozens of such simple recipes!

Lin Qi: Hehe!

"Eat it sparingly. This Medicinal Herb is quite potent. I also added Tier 5 royal jelly. Don't eat it all at once! Otherwise, you might fall asleep!"

Seeing that Zi Yan was being a bit greedy, Lin Qing couldn't help but remind her.

"Mmm! Okay!" Zi Yan swallowed the chewed Medicinal Pellet in her mouth, mumbled something while holding the Jade Bottle, then poured out another Medicinal Pellet and chewed it, clearly not listening to what was being said.

"If you eat like that, you'll finish it very quickly!" Lin Qing had no choice but to kindly remind her again.

"Oh! Then I won't eat anymore!" Upon hearing Lin Qing's words, Zi Yan immediately stopped, licked her pink lips with her pink tongue, and reluctantly put away the Jade Bottle.

Foodies really do care about food!

As Zi Yan put away the Medicinal Pellet, she suddenly remembered something.

"Brother Lin Qing! After I finish eating these, can you still help me refine some more pills? And the same kind of Medicinal Pill as last time!" Zi Yan quickly knelt down in front of Lin Qing, her big, dark eyes full of anticipation.

"Of course! We're friends, aren't we? But the Medicinal Pill have to be exchanged for Medicinal Herb!" Lin Qing smiled and ruffled the adorable Zi Yan's little head.

"Yay!"

Zi Yan jumped up excitedly and burst into laughter. Her clear, childlike laughter was like the sound of silver bells.

"I have to go back and tell the old man that I have friends now!"

After saying that, Zi Yan ran towards the door.

Watching Zi Yan run away, Lin Qing was both amused and exasperated. It seemed that after so many years of loneliness, she longed for friends.

Is this little girl also special?

The Xiao Yi Xian, who had been silent until now, asked with some curiosity.
