Following this clear drink, she thought, raised her hand, took out a jade box, and put the elixir into it.
Click!
The jade box is sealed.
Ye Xiyue was exhausted, her legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground.
She quickly held on to the medicine cauldron and barely supported herself to stand upright.
After a while, she felt better and looked down at the jade box in her hand.
After staring for a moment, she opened the jade box and saw a red pill lying quietly inside.
The shape is round, the color is bright, and the most important thing is...
There are five lines on it!
——A true fifth-grade elixir!
Ye Xiyue closed the box again and closed her eyes.
After not sleeping for several days, her body and spirit had reached the critical point of collapse. Fortunately... fortunately, it finally happened!
Tuk Tuk.
There was a knock on the door.
"Girl Xi'er? How are you?"
Song Zheng vaguely felt something outside, thinking that it was finally over, but after waiting for a long time, Ye Xiyue didn't come out.
He felt a little worried again, so he couldn't help but come over and knock on the door.
It was quiet inside.
Song Zheng frowned slightly.
Could it be that...it didn't work?
This is not impossible. Refining elixirs should never be taken lightly until the last step.
He had once seen an alchemist refining an elixir with his own eyes. Seeing that it was almost finished, he felt happy and relaxed a little, but the elixir exploded.
Falling short of success.
Now Ye Xiyue -
He took two steps back and forth, with many speculations running through his mind, and finally raised his hand, intending to knock on the door again.
However, before his hand landed on the door, the door was opened from the inside, and Ye Xiyue appeared behind the door.
"Girl Xi'er! Are you—you, what's wrong with you?"
Song Zheng just breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw Ye Xiyue's appearance at this time, his eyes widened again, his face full of shock.
The girl in front of her was extremely pale, not even a trace of blood on her lips. Only her eyes were bloodshot, and there were two groups of black and blue hanging from her eyes.
Because her skin is very white, these two groups of black and blue look particularly conspicuous, even a little shocking.
He looked really haggard.
Song Zheng suddenly became nervous: "How did you do this?"
Seeing him like this made him feel really distressed.
"Girl, it doesn't matter if you fail. The fifth-grade elixir is indeed too difficult for you now. You-"
Hearing this, Ye Xiyue finally had an expression on her face.
She looked at Song Zheng inexplicably and spoke slowly:
"...Who said it failed?"
Her voice was very soft and hoarse, but Song Zheng still heard her clearly.
He was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"
Anyone who sees her like this would think she has failed!
Catching his gaze, Ye Xiyue finally understood something belatedly.
She raised her hand and touched her face. After a moment, she slowly explained:
"I'm so... so sleepy..."
Too tired too.
Her mental energy was drained, and her whole body was exhausted. This feeling was different from mere physical fatigue, so she probably needed to take good care of herself.
But after these words, she didn't say much more to Song Zheng.
Hearing this, Song Zheng was still in disbelief: "...Really?"
Done?
Ye Xiyue shook the jade box in her hand, and the corners of her lips curved slightly.
"Finally my efforts were not in vain."
In a short period of time, Song Zheng's mood fluctuated greatly.
He was excited and distressed at the same time, and said quickly:
