Transmigrated into a book? A vicious female supporting character? A senior sister? Tsk tsk!

Instead, she smiled and encouraged him:

"You've even learned how to refine pills, not bad."

Having said that, Xiao Yimo took out a pill and slowly put it into his mouth. However, just as it was about to enter his mouth,

Xiao Yimo stopped, looked at Tang Xinyan who was looking at him expectantly, and deliberately asked:

"Has Yan Yan tried it?"

Although his youngest apprentice tried his best to restrain himself, Xiao Yimo still keenly noticed a hint of unusual excitement in his apprentice.

However, it was rare for his little apprentice to be so lively, so he didn't mind playing along, since it wasn't a big deal anyway.

Just as the pill was about to enter her mouth, she stopped at the crucial moment. With a mix of nervousness and great anticipation, Tang Xinyan nodded vigorously.

Xiao Yimo looked at the pill on his fingertip, his eyes filled with curiosity, and said:

"Oh? So, how is the taste and effect?"

Without a second's hesitation, Tang Xinyan said firmly:

"Not bad, Master. You'll see once you try it."

Xiao Yimo nodded slightly, put the pill in his mouth, and after waiting for a while, seeing that Xiao Yimo showed no abnormality, Tang Xinyan couldn't help but wonder:

"Master, how are you feeling?"

Xiao Yimo showed an appreciative expression and praised:

"Very good. Although the quality is low, it's your first time refining pills, and you figured it out on your own. It's quite good that you were able to make pills that are effective."

Tang Xinyan was naturally happy to receive the praise, but that wasn't what she wanted to hear, so she tentatively asked:

"Um... Master, after taking the pill, did you experience any other unusual sensations?"

Xiao Yimo looked puzzled.

"No, what's wrong? Is there something amiss?"

Tang Xinyan quickly waved her hand:

"No, no, absolutely not, hehe."

After saying that, Tang Xinyan took back the pill bottle, looked at the three remaining pills inside, and thought to herself:

'Could it be that she was a bit more "lucky" and just happened to eat the one with lightning? Or perhaps her master was a bit more lucky and just happened to eat the one that was harmless?'

Driven by a strange curiosity, Tang Xinyan picked up another one and popped it into her mouth... Soon, her lips and tongue went numb...

Her bewildered expression amused Xiao Yimo, and his laughter made Tang Xinyan realize that she had been tricked by her master...

Seeing his little apprentice's resentful look, Xiao Yimo stopped smiling, cleared his throat, and asked:

"You've come to ask how to refine normal pills, right?"

Getting down to business, Tang Xinyan became serious and said earnestly:

"Yes, Master."

Xiao Yimo suggested:

"Here's what you'll do: refine it again in front of me, and I'll see if there's anything wrong with it."

Tang Xinyan hurriedly took out her alchemy furnace and a set of materials for refining the Bigu Pill. Having already gained experience in successfully refining the pill once, this time it went much more smoothly.

After the pill was finished, Tang Xinyan didn't want to try again. She took out a small knife and cut the pill in half, watching the wisps of lightning flashing inside.

Tang Xinyan sighed and looked at Xiao Yimo. Xiao Yimo frowned slightly. He had looked very carefully just now and had not found anything unusual.

He had also examined Tang Xinyan's flame attack and found no lightning elemental power attached to it. Seeing Xiao Yimo frowning in thought, seemingly unable to find a problem, he...

Tang Xinyan asked in surprise, "Master, didn't you notice anything unusual?"

Xiao Yimo nodded and said frankly:

"Using this kind of strange fire with special abilities, as long as you communicate with the fire spirit to temporarily control it during alchemy, the strange fire will be no different from ordinary fire."

"There's no difference. I observed that your alchemy just now didn't contain any lightning elemental power in the flames, which means you've communicated with the fire spirit."

Tang Xinyan nodded:

"Yes, it's mentioned in the book, and when I talked to Senior Sister Dan before, she also emphasized it to me."

When Danyao was mentioned, Xiao Yimo had a new idea and suggested:

"The Dan Peak Master is mainly engaged in alchemy and has trained so many disciples. Perhaps she has seen situations like yours before. Why don't you contact her and ask if she knows anything about it?"

Tang Xinyan already liked Dan Yao, finding her straightforward and without the airs of a peak master. After their last conversation,

She had a very good impression of Dan Yao, so upon hearing Xiao Yimo's suggestion, Tang Xinyan immediately said:

"Okay, I'll contact Senior Sister Dan right now."

Tang Xinyan returned to the courtyard, took out her sect's jade token, found Dan Yao's information in the communication module, and sent a friend request.

The application was approved quickly, followed by a message:

Dan Yao: [Junior Sister Yan, long time no see. Are you having trouble with your alchemy studies?]

Tang Xinyan: [Ugh, Senior Sister Dan, I need help.jpg]

Dan Yao: [I knew you were a heartless little girl, you wouldn't come here without a reason. So, what's the problem?]

Tang Xinyan: [Hehe, here's the situation...]

Tang Xinyan described the whole process and the problems in detail to Dan Yao, and Dan Yao's reply came quickly:

Dan Yao: [Some disciples have indeed experienced this, but it was all due to a lack of control. Are you sure you communicated properly with your fire spirit before refining the pill?]

Tang Xinyan: [Nodding vigorously.jpg]

Tang Xinyan: [Senior Sister Dan, I'm sure. I even demonstrated the operation in front of my master, and he said he didn't detect any lightning spiritual power in my flames.]

Dan Yao: [I see. That's strange then. Although Elder Xiao's main profession isn't alchemy, his alchemy skills are no worse than mine.]

Even he couldn't figure it out. Little girl, you're making things quite mysterious... How about this, you come to my Pill Peak and refine one for me to see.

Tang Xinyan: [Okay, then I'll trouble Senior Sister Dan.]

Dan Yao: [See, isn't that being too formal?]

Tang Xinyan: [Hehe, by the way, Senior Sister Dan, can I go to your place invisibly?]

Dan Yao: [What's wrong? Did you get into trouble?]

Tang Xinyan: 【Absolutely not. I'll explain when we get there.】

Dan Yao: [Okay, come over now, I'll be waiting for you in the main hall.]

Ten minutes later, inside the Danfeng Hall, Dan Yao raised an eyebrow as she looked at the suddenly appearing Tang Xinyan:

"Little girl, explain yourself?"

Tang Xinyan chuckled, sat down next to Dan Yao as if they were old friends, and said with feigned helplessness:

"There's a big competition going on recently, and I happened to need to leave the academy, so my senior brother told the sect leader I was in seclusion, so..."

Dan Yao suddenly realized:

"That's a real shame. If you had participated, you would definitely have been the leader of the Foundation Establishment stage."

Tang Xinyan felt embarrassed by the praise and changed the subject:

"Senior Sister Dan, you flatter me. Shall we go to the alchemy room, or stay in this main hall?"

Dan Yao waved her hand to close the palace door and said to Tang Xinyan:

"Let's go to the main hall. A batch of pills won't take long, there's no need to make a special trip to the pill room."
