”Alright, you two can stay while my group checks it.”

Just as Lian was about to start doing the tests, he remembered another thing.

”Oh, right! Krune, if you tried, could you create another one of this pill?”

Krune pondered a bit about the steps that he took back in the Alchemist competition and then shrugged his shoulders.

”Maybe? It was a crazy idea to concoct this pill like the way I did, so I don't know if I can recreate it or not. As you probably know, there was even a little accident because of it.”

Palo heard the 'little' accident words, and his mouth twitched.

'If the other elders and I hadn't stopped the explosion, it would put half of the place down. Is that what you call a 'little' accident?'

Lian didn't know what Palo was thinking, so he just nodded back to Krune.

”Well, whether there will be a need for you to make it again or not will depend on the results. If it turns out that this thing is harmful and brings no effect regarding the Cultivation Stabilization, you might as well forget how it was even concocted.”

Krune agreed with Lian's words. What would be the point in making a pill that had no use and only harmed the user? It's not like he is making poison pills anyway. In fact, if Krune wanted to, it would be more cost-effective to make a poison pill straight away.

Lian then handed the pill to one of his subordinates and brought Krune to his table.

”Alright. Tell me the entire process of how it was done. The more detailed, the better.”

Krune nodded and started to explain how he concocted that Cultivation Stabilizing Pill. Of course, he also apologized about the fact that there were a few things that he couldn't say. Lian didn't mind since secrets are part of the Cultivation World. He was already expecting this much when he saw the record of that purple flame that Krune used.

While Krune and the others were making the tests, back in the Riren Planet, Feifei received another message.

She looked at Tiane and Ruik and said.

”Krune told me that they are making several tests with his pill, and because of that, he will probably stay there for two or three days to help. If it turns out that what he made is a new pill, they will need to have it registered in the system of the Alchemist Organization.”

Ruik nodded and sighed.

”Only that idiot can create something new out of an explosion. Oh well, it doesn't matter what he does, I can't even feel surprised anymore.”

Feifei couldn't help but laugh.

”You couldn't be more correct. Hahaha!”

Ruik noticed Tiane beside Feifei, and then his eyes lit up!

”Oh, now that I think about it, we were all going to take missions in the Mission Hall. Although Krune can't come back for the next days, it is not like we are his fiance. So, what you say, Tiane? Should we go take that mission that we agreed from the start?”

Only now did she remember that agreement. Still, after what happened in the living room the day prior, the last thing she wanted was to stay close to that snake.

Ruik noticed her ugly face, and his smile grew bigger.

”Of course, if you want to stay, I won't insist. That just means that you aren't capable of taking missions of the same level as me. There is nothing wrong with admitting that you aren't quite at the right level. It's okay to be afraid.”

Another vein popped out of Tiane's head after hearing that. She immediately stood up and started to make her way out. When she arrived at the door, she asked Ruik back.

”What are you waiting for?”

Ruik laughed out loud and left with Tiane. He had found it quite funny to tease her every now and then.

Feifei just shook her head and went back to her room to cultivate. She decided to wait for Krune to be back before they go take a mission for themselves as well.
