"There's nothing wrong with the pill formula. I can refine it." After a long while, Xiao Yu set down the scroll and spoke slowly.
Xiao Yu went over the scroll's contents in his mind and adapted them to the Lightning-Fire Pill Refining Method. He found the Ice-Skin Jade-Bone Pill quite simple; with his current alchemical ability, he could easily handle it.
Su Mei's eyes curved with a smile when she heard this. "Then sorry for the trouble, Court Master Xiao."
Xiao Yu nodded. "Gate Master Su, you know the rules for commissioning an alchemist, don't you?"

Xiao Yu scanned it with his senses and found nothing amiss. "You can come to collect the pill in three days, Gate Master Su."
Su Mei caught the dismissal in his words, but she was not annoyed. Smiling, she said, "Then sorry for the trouble, Court Master Xiao. I won't disturb your rest any longer. I'll take my leave."
With that, she swayed her slender waist as she walked out, casting Xiao Yu a seductive glance before closing the door.
