Beside him, Duan Yue had a grim expression and coldly said, "I am a Bloodline Master from the Bloodline Holy Land. Is Master Liu Guang really unavailable?"
It was early morning; what important matters could prevent someone from meeting guests? It was obvious they simply didn't want to see them.
"The three of you, it's not that Master Liu Guang is refusing to meet, but he truly has important matters. He is currently in the refining room and cannot be disturbed at all."
The manager knew the identities of the three were extraordinary and explained further.
"In the middle of refining?"
Duan Yue's brows furrowed. If that were the case, it was somewhat understandable. After all, the process for a pill refiner required complete focus and could not tolerate disturbances; otherwise, it could easily lead to failure.
"Yes, Master Liu Guang has been in the refining room since yesterday. He has already been refining for a whole day and night. At this time, I surely can't disturb him, right?"
The manager nodded.
"When will he be finished with the refining?"
Duan Yue, staring at the manager's expression, felt it might be true and couldn't help but ask.
"This, I also don't know. He could finish any moment, or it might still take a while. I, as a subordinate, cannot make that decision."
"In that case, let's wait here for a bit."
Exchanging glances, Duan Yue said.
Since they had come, they might as well wait. Returning would mean that next time, Master Liu Guang might not have time either. Since he had already been refining for a day and night, he must be getting close to finishing.
After all, a pill refiner's energy was limited; a full day and night was basically their limit.
Furthermore, the matter concerning Lu Yang was extremely urgent and couldn't be delayed too long.
"Alright, if Master Liu Guang finishes refining, I will definitely help you relay the news."
The manager nodded.
If they wanted to wait, then let them wait.
He issued a couple of orders to the attendant before turning to leave. Once he reached a corner where the three could not see him, he couldn't help but spit, "Bah! A lewd prince is just a lewd prince, and that Qi Wang, and what was that Duan Yue? Just because they're from the Bloodline Holy Land, do they think they're so impressive? Coming to beg and still have such a big temper, really think they’re great? Dammit!"
This manager was well-informed and knew about the Alchemy Pavilion sealing off the Sifang Bureau yesterday. Today, the head of the Sifang Bureau had come to find Master Liu Guang; there could be no other reason, it was definitely about sealing off the Sifang Bureau.
Coming to beg and still being so arrogant was the first time he had ever seen.
In the Alchemy Pavilion's hall.
Duan Yue and the other two found an unoccupied corner to sit down.
"This Alchemy Pavilion is really too ostentatious."
As soon as they sat down, Zhao Qirui expressed his dissatisfaction.
As a prince, when had he ever waited for someone like this?
"Don’t be angry, Prince Qi. In my opinion, Master Liu Guang is indeed refining. Didn't you see that the manager came directly without relaying any message? It should have been a coincidence."
Duan Yue consoled him, though his expression was also quite displeased.
"Both of you calm down. For Lu Yang's sake, you two have worked hard. Once this matter is settled, I guarantee I will treat you two to a big feast."
Lu Yang smiled apologetically.
"Alright then."
Once Zhao Qirui heard this, he immediately brightened up, "Then I’ll wait for Lu Director's arrangement."
The three of them waited there.
Boom!
At this moment, the door to Xiao Ya's refining room finally opened.
"Mr. Qin, you’re leaving already?"
Inside the refining room, Xiao Ya followed closely behind Qin Chen, looking almost like a shadow, her expression filled with inexplicable emotions.
Upon closer inspection, Xiao Ya's aura had undergone a tremendous change from yesterday; if yesterday she was an extraordinary beauty, now she was like a fairy who had fallen to the mortal realm, exuding an otherworldly grace.
