When Chen Miao left Zhang Huan's residence, he had two more pills in his hand.
They were called Spirit-Nourishing Pills.
These were the pills Zhang Huan and Xia Lin used themselves, and their effects differed from those of Soul-Calming Pills.

Chen Miao was about to go inside when he noticed something was off with Oshima Masao. He
