Don't worry, landlord

  When Zhu Miaoqi suddenly mentioned Liu Shi in the dungeon to Tang Nian, Tang Nian only then remembered that she still had such a person waiting for her poison.

  These days she has been immersed in the Bi Luo Ling medicine, and with Si Ling Gu Huang's natural Tianmo evil body by her side providing endless absorption of Tianmo poison, Lü Lü no longer sought out poisonous medicine from her, after all, having the most toxic thing in the world made seeking other poisons completely unnecessary.

  "These days, Liu has been seeking death, even if she can save her life, but her energy is getting weaker and weaker." Zhu Miao said calmly to Tang Nian, "In this case, I'm afraid that the poison of the master's mother will not be able to support Liu for much longer."

  Although she lost all four limbs, Zhuo Mei's life could be saved, but if this person is determined to die, there is no way to control her mentally.

  Tang Nian's eyes seemed to be lost in thought, her face a bit dazed. "En, I'll refine it today."

  "What's going on?" Ciling Guhong sensed something was amiss.

  Tang Nian looked at him and nodded, "I know, you're with me."

  Cui Ling felt a slight sense of defeat, but seeing that her complexion had returned to normal, he didn't ask further.

  Zhu Miao's face showed expectation, and she repeatedly spoke in a flattering tone: "Reporting to the master, I am now a terrestrial-level alchemist. Although I'm not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as you, Master, I can still be of some assistance. May I ask if it would be possible for me to observe and learn from you?"

  That day, Tang Nian gave her Bi Hua Xuan Mu Dan. She studied it for several days and although she had roughly figured out the herbs through investigation and close observation, she was completely unable to understand how to refine it. As for its efficacy, she had a child in Zhuo Yu Ge take it, just as Tang Nian said, even stronger. This shocked both her and the master of Si Fang Ge, while also filling their hearts with sorrow.

  How can people who have worked hard to cultivate themselves to their current status bear such a pill?

  However, they do not know that washing the marrow can change a person's physique, but it cannot improve a person's understanding. Physique can be improved with external objects, but understanding is innate and requires continuous self-enlightenment. For people who have progressed to their current height by relying on their own abilities, how can anyone compare?

  After this experiment, Zhu Miao Jie truly admired Tang Nian Nian. A 16-year-old who was already a top-tier alchemist, perhaps even a divine or sacred level, was absolutely a rare talent that only appeared once in a thousand years.

  "I don't need to take action." Tang Nian said, and then thought of something and looked at Si Ling Gu Yun again. Was this also arranged by this person on purpose? Last time it was Zhu Miao Ti who came to ask about the medicine's efficacy, this time she let her watch him refine the medicine, and then used someone else's mouth to ask questions?

  Zhu Miao didn't show a disappointed expression, but she didn't insist either. She just held onto a glimmer of hope and asked, after all, as an alchemist herself, she was very clear about the rules in the alchemy world. Watching someone else's alchemy without permission was like watching someone else's martial arts skills - it was suspected of stealing techniques, and everyone would despise her for it.

  The next second, Tang Nian heard herself saying quietly, "If you want to look, then look."

  Zhu Miao Jie was taken aback for a moment, and it wasn't until later that she realized Tang Nian's words were directed at her. Her expression changed in an instant, and with a joyful face, she quickly said: "Thank you, Master. I won't trouble you."

  Si Ling glanced at her with a lonely goose, in his heart, he was actually very unwilling that Tang Nian's appearance of being like a startled fairy when refining medicine would be seen by others.

  Since Tang Nian had personally agreed to this, he didn't want to disappoint her. This glance was a polite refusal, wanting Zhu Miaoqi to understand the situation.

  Zhu Miaoqi shamelessly smiled at Si Ling Gu and then looked away, lowering her head. She didn't see anything, she didn't see anything.

  Compared to the sacred medicine that helps people, Tang Nian was more skilled at brewing evil poisons. With the existing precious herbs and spiritual water in Xueyuan Mountain Villa, Tang Nian immediately thought of what kind of evil poison she should brew.

  Liu gave her the Soul-Devouring Pill, which would not only harm her life but also damage her soul. She absolutely wouldn't repay Liu with anything less than that.

  Si Ling Gu Hong personally carried her to the Ice Gorge Valley, Zhu Miao Tiang personally asked Tang Nian Nian what herbs she needed and went to fetch them. In less than a moment, he returned to the Ice Gorge Valley. As soon as they entered the Ice Gorge Valley, they saw the two people standing in the breathtaking ice crystal landscape, their eyes involuntarily revealing astonishment.

  This icy gorge is one of the forbidden places of Xueyuan Manor, and Zhū Miào had only been here once until now. This is her second time, no matter how long it has been since she last saw it, she can't help but marvel at its beauty. What's more, the two people standing in it are a dragon and phoenix among men, with unparalleled beauty.

  "Master, do you need to add any supplementary medicine?" Zhu Miao Jie arranged the medicinal materials one by one on the white jade medicine tray. Since Tang Nian Nian designated this place as her own alchemy room, all the necessary equipment for alchemy had also been prepared and placed here.

  Tang Nian shook her head, and Si Ling Gu also subconsciously loosened his grip at this moment, standing silently by, his entire aura merging into the surroundings, making it impossible for anyone to detect even a hint.

  Zhu Miao couldn't reach him, but she knew better and stood far away, softening her breathing.

  Tang Nian didn't summon Greenie this time, but instead used her spiritual awareness to control the herbs, which automatically floated up, shattered into powder, and then merged. As she looked at Tang Nian, a faint green glow enveloped her hands as she performed a set of pill-refining techniques with elegant movements that seemed to transcend the mundane world, leaving onlookers in a state of enchantment.

  Refining medicine is a dull and energy-consuming task, but on Tang Nian's body, not a single bit of it can be seen. Zhu Miaoqi was already shocked with wide eyes when the medicinal materials flew up, and seeing Tang Nian's set of refining techniques, her spirit couldn't help but be roused to its fullest extent.

  This doesn't look like alchemy, it's clearly a fairy dancing, every step seems to be carrying some kind of magic that steps on people's hearts, even the heartbeat follows the other person's footsteps and moves, can't take eyes or mind away for a moment.

  Until Tang Nian stopped moving, waved her sleeve and beckoned, the powder that had condensed in mid-air was all absorbed into her hand, and she turned to look at the two of them.

  Cui Ling hugged her around the waist and lifted her up, "Alright?"

  "Alright." Tang Nian's eyes flickered slightly.

  Cui Ling took her and walked out of the Ice Gorge immediately. Zhu Miao followed closely behind, her mind filled with shock and questions, wanting to understand. Directly controlling medicinal herbs? That requires extremely precise control over one's yuan energy! Refining medicine without a cauldron? That also requires extremely precise control over one's yuan energy! And that refining technique, she had never seen such a wonderful and delightful method of refining medicine in her life!

  Master! You'd better ask questions and let me avoid mental torture! Zhu Miaoquan looked at Si Ling Gu with resentment, it was clear that he didn't plan to ask anything.

  Liu was already awake when he was carried out of the cell, and upon seeing Tang Nian and others sitting in a chair under the sunset, he didn't show any surprise. A resentful glint flashed at the bottom of his dull eyes, and a low, hoarse laugh sounded: "Heh, heh-heh, are you finally going to make your move? I've been waiting impatiently, madam."

  "We have to wait a bit longer." Tang Nian said softly.

  Liu was taken aback, and when she looked up, she met Tang Nian's calm and tranquil eyes, which were as still as stagnant water, numb and icy cold, sending shivers down her spine.

  Tang Nian's lips moved lightly, "The Soul-Devouring Pill not only takes one's life, but more importantly, it devours one's soul." With a flick of her wrist, the shallow silver powder in her hand shimmered and shone, making her delicate, snow-carved face even more dreamy and ethereal. "This is the Soul-Devouring Powder I refined, with the same medicinal effect as the Soul-Devouring Pill, which devours one's soul after its efficacy passes. The efficacy lasts for seven days. On the first day, one's body feels like it's being crawled on by countless ants. For the next five days, one's body feels like it's being eaten away by countless ghosts, one's ears hear the howling of countless evil spirits, one's eyes see countless demons swirling around, one's nose smells the stench of countless rotting bones, and one's mouth tastes the corruption of countless rotten flesh. On the last day, all five senses are lost, and the soul is devoured, leading to death."

  Her tone was light and calm as water, flat and waveless, but Liu's face had already turned pale and twisted, and Zhu Miao's body trembled slightly.

  "Oh, and there's one more thing I forgot to mention." Tang Nian suddenly remembered something, nodded to herself with a faint smile, "Within seven days, your five senses will be very sharp, but you'll be completely powerless. It won't kill you before the seventh day is over."
