Chapter 156 - Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Visit from the Wang Pill Master (2/2)

“System Notification: Congratulations to the host for refining the Pure Elixir and obtaining a reward: 10 Harvest Points.”

“Elixir refinement successful, alchemy proficiency +30.” (Note: You are currently a third-rank Alchemist, when refining lower-grade elixirs, proficiency increase is halved.)

After finishing the elixir refinement, Lin Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Lin Jing took the elixir out of the Pill Furnace and, from his Storage Bag, he pulled out a Pure Jade Box and placed the Pure Elixir inside it.

Having done all this, Lin Jing spoke again.

“System, activate Observation Mode.”

As soon as Lin Jing finished speaking, his perspective switched to Observation Mode and started to ascend until it was above the small courtyard.

Afterward, Lin Jing maneuvered the viewpoint to the entrance and was surprised to find that it was Wang, the Pill Master, standing at his front door.

Lin Jing, using Observation Mode, watched him as he reached out to knock again.

“Lin Daoyou, are you home?”

Lin Jing observed Wang, the Pill Master, and pondered:

“I’m not familiar with this person, what could he want?”

Seeing that there was still no response from inside, the Pill Master named Wang frowned and couldn’t help muttering to himself:

“Strange?” “Is no one home?”

“That can’t be right…’

Watching Wang, the Pill Master, behave this way, Lin Jing decided to go out and ask what the visitor’s purpose truly was.

Then, Lin Jing spoke once more.

“System, exit Observation Mode and leave the System Space.”

This time, the scene before Lin Jing shifted once again, and he found himself back in the room.

Lin Jing opened the door and walked out of the house.

No sooner had he stepped through the door than he heard Wang, the Pill Master, still calling out:

“Lin Daoyou, are you at home? Wang has come for a visit.”

“He’s really persistent…” Lin Jing couldn’t help thinking to himself.

Then, as he arrived at the courtyard door, Lin Jing reached out to open it and saw Wang, the Pill Master.

“Wang Daoyou…”

“May I know what brings you here today?”

Lin Jing’s expression was calm; he didn’t display any additional emotions.

Upon seeing Lin Jing, Wang, the Pill Master’s, face lit up with joy:

“Lin Daoyou, so you are home. I’ve been knocking for quite a while, I thought you weren’t in.”

“If Lin Daoyou hadn’t shown up, I was about to leave.”

Lin Jing responded directly:

“I was in, I was just refining elixirs; it was at a critical moment, so I was delayed a bit.”

Hearing this, Wang, the Pill Master, immediately grew anxious and hastened to say:

“Lin Daoyou, how is it going? Your batch of elixirs is unharmed, I hope…”

After speaking, Wang, the Pill Master, slapped his forehead:

“That was thoughtless of me…”

“I should have realized sooner…”

“Why do I always interrupt Lin Daoyou during your alchemy, last time at the assessment, and this time as well…”

Observing Wang, the Pill Master, looking so remorseful, Lin Jing made no comment and stated indifferently:

“It’s fine…”

Wang, the Pill Master, put a hand over his heart and said:

“Good, good… as long as it’s fine.”

“If my doing caused Lin Daoyou to fail at alchemy again, my sin would be great. ”

At this point, Lin Jing asked again:

“May I ask what Wang Daoyou seeks me for?”
