The thought of witnessing that and seeing Qian Jiyun vomit blood from anger in the future brought him immense joy, and he could not help but burst into laughter.

His laughter caused the lords to roll their eyes immediately.

It was not that they could not stand Lord Tang, but they no longer trusted Shang Ningyi’s words. Hence, they stood up and prepared to leave.

“Since there’s nothing else at the moment, then Lord Shang and my fellow lords, we’ll take our leave. You can inform us when there is any news.”

A few lords stood up, cupped their fists at Shang Ningyi and the others, and turned to leave.

“These people sure dampen the mood!” Lord Tang glared at their backs angrily.

When the lords were outside, they looked at each other and sighed.

One of them could not help but ask himself and the others, ‘Why are we even targeting Lord Qian?”

There had to be a reason for targeting someone. Were they targeting Qian Jiyun because he was stronger than them at Huayan Peak?

However, Shang Ningyi was also stronger than them.

Even if they defeated Qian Jiyun’s camp and made him much weaker, they would not be the strongest. Instead, Shang Ningyi would benefit.

“One wrong step leads to another. We can only take things one step at a time now.” Another lord shook his head.

They already played a part in this. It would not be easy to withdraw now.

Turning around, he looked at the tent and said angrily, “Shang Ningyi is not a good person either.”

The other lords chuckled. None of them were good people. Everyone was the same. There was nothing to criticize.

“Everyone is taking what they need. There’s no point in blaming him. Let’s go.”

“Ahem, ahem!”

As black smoke engulfed the room and an explosion echoed through the air, An Jiuyue coughed and choked.

“Ahem! What… What kind of medicine is this? Ahem! That it requires an explosion to… ahem, refine successfully! It’s really… Ahem! Killing people without compensating for it!”

She coughed as she spoke.

However, her hands did not stop moving. She fanned the black smoke away with a fan and looked into the medicinal furnace.

“Hey, not bad! There are five medicinal pills! Jiu Bing, I’m becoming more and more successful in refining intermediate-level, high-grade medicinal pills. I can refine five now!”

Ever since Qian Jiyun told her that the two Wind-Riding Pills she refined were intermediate-level, high-grade pills, she had spent all her time refining intermediate-level, high-grade pills.

Another two days passed. She had refined 20 batches of medicinal pills. Having progressed from producing only two, three, or four pills per furnace to now being able to produce five, she had improved at lightning speed.

“Master, you refined the Mystic Crystal Pill this time. It’s like this.” Jiu Bing took an empty bottle and handed it to An Jiuyue respectfully.

“That’s true.”

An Jiuyue took the porcelain bottle and put on heat-resistant gloves. She retrieved the Mystic Crystal Pills from the medicinal furnace and carefully placed them into the porcelain bottle.

“How can we call it a Mystic Crystal Pill if it doesn’t explode during the refining process?”
