“Forget it, let’s head out too,”

Steward Cheng spoke again:

“You should rest well tonight, for tomorrow you’ll need to consecutively refine three furnaces of elixir medicine, and that is indeed a very taxing task.”

“Mm…” Lin Jing nodded, acknowledging with a hum.

Then, the two of them left together.

Back to his small courtyard…

Lin Jing began to meditate and cultivate as usual.

He continued to cultivate until the afternoon when he was roused by a series of knocks on the door.

Lin Jing got up and went outside.

When he opened the courtyard door, he found Huang Qingling standing at the door, accompanied by Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing.

“Why didn’t you tell me about the examination?”

As soon as the door opened, Huang Qingling asked urgently.

“Qing Ling Daoyou, come in, let’s talk inside…”

Lin Jing said to Huang Qingling.

“Brother Li…”

“Qing Qing Daoyou, please come inside…”

Huang Qingling understood that the doorway was not the place for discussion, so he walked into the courtyard.

Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing also followed him inside.

Lin Jing then closed the courtyard gate and followed them in.

As soon as they entered the room, Huang Qingling started speaking.

“I heard that this new steward Zheng specifically came to trouble you, is that

SO

Huang Qingling’s gaze was penetrating as she looked at Lin Jing and asked.

“It’s just an examination, nothing serious. There’s actually no need to panic, Qing Ling Daoyou,”

Lin Jing’s expression remained calm, showing not the slightest bit of agitation.

“Brother Lin…”

“What did steward Zheng set for your examination this time?” Li Tangyu asked, his expression grave.

Lin Jing looked at Li Tangyu and then spoke:

“The examination is actually quite straightforward.”

“You have to refine a second-rank superior elixir within three furnaces.” “Three furnaces, to refine a single…”

“Indeed, the examination doesn’t seem difficult,” Li Tangyu nodded as he said.

After speaking, Li Tangyu lifted his head and said to Lin Jing:

“But that’s relative to others…”

“I recall that just last month you were only just able to refine medium-grade elixirs.”

After speaking, Li Tangyu’s brow furrowed:

‘You know, those are second rank superior elixirs; with your current skill level, it might be quite challenging.”

While Li Tangyu spoke of the difficulty, in his heart, he didn’t quite believe that Lin Jing could successfully refine it.

Because the improvement in alchemy skills requires a lot of time, non-stop practice and refinement to gradually get better, it’s not something that happens overnight.

And now Lin Jing, who had just advanced to a second rank Pill Master not long ago, didn’t have enough experience; the likelihood of him being able to refine a superior elixir was small.

Of course…

Unless he was very lucky, it was possible to refine one.

But that probability was incredibly slim, relying merely on chance… “If it doesn’t work out, I’ll go to steward Zheng.”

Hearing Li Tangyu’s words, Huang Qingling seemed somewhat anxious. “Qing Ling Daoyou, don’t worry, it’s okay…”

Lin Jing quickly reassured and repeated the same explanation he had given to

Steward Cheng.

“During our discussion of alchemy techniques last time, I had some realizations, and it seems like my understanding of Alchemy Dao has improved.”

“Dealing with this examination shouldn’t be a problem…”

“Brother Lin, the last time you mentioned, was it that time I got drunk?” Li Tangyu suddenly looked up and asked Lin Jing.

“Yes, that’s the time!”

“Also, I’ve found that…”

“Brother Li, when you are drunk, you tend to talk quite a bit.”

“You’re much cuter then…,” Lin Jing teased.

“Let’s not bring up that time again. I was so drunk that day that all I remember is saying a lot to you, but as for what exactly, I myself have forgotten…”

Li Tangyu immediately held his forehead.

“Haha, is that so…”

“My brother has always been this way, revealing his true nature whenever he gets drunk…”

“A gentleman who is usuallv so modest turns into a chatterbox…”

Li Qingqing started to laugh as well, chiming in on the side.

This interruption lightened the originally somewhat heavy atmosphere quite a bit.

“You’re really okay?”

Huang Qingling spoke up, still somewhat worried.

“Qingling Daoyou, just relax…”

“Even if I truly fail, it’s nothing more than losing my Pill Master Offering Priest status at Yuebaolou, nothing serious.”

“Even if that Zheng Steward takes away this courtyard, I can still move to live outside in Fang Market.”

“I don’t suffer any loss myself…”

Lin Jing said, looking at Huang Qingling, trying to reassure her.

Right after Lin Jing finished speaking, Huang Qingling was looking down, as if pondering something.

After a moment, she suddenly looked up at Lin Jing and said bluntly:

“If you fail the assessment, come live at my place…”

“Let’s live together for now, and we’ll see what to do when Old Man Bai and Elder Yu return.”

What Huang Qingling said was so surprising that it made Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing freeze in shock.

Lin Jing was no exception.

After a while, a “gulp” sound came, as Li Qingqing swallowed her saliva, followed by

“Hiss…”

A sound of sucking in a cold breath.

“Cough…cough…cough…’

Li Qingqing was actually choked by her own saliva.

She then stammered, unable to speak clearly:

“Cough…you…you two…living together?”

At this point, Li Tangyu also recovered and hurriedly interrupted Li Qingqing:

“Sister Qingling means, I believe…”

“It’s to let Brother Lin stay in her courtyard, not that they are actually going to live together under one roof.”

“Right, that’s what I meant…”

Huang Qingling’s face blushed as she quickly explained.

“After all, my courtyard is not small, and there are many rooms…”

After explaining, Huang Qingling looked at Li Qingqing with a speechless expression:

“Qingqing, your thoughts are too twisted…”

And Lin Jing was caught between laughter and tears.

“Rest assured, Qingling Daoyou…”

“For this assessment, I have at least a seventy percent chance of passing…”

Lin Jing didn’t make his claim overly confidently.

Only then did Huang Qingling start to doubtfully believe Lin Jing.

Early the next day…

Lin Jing took the Pill Furnace from the System Space and put it into the Storage Bag, then changed into a new set of clothes and left.

The previous day, Li Tangyu, worried that he might not pass the assessment, shared many Alchemy experiences with him until late into the night before leaving.

Because Zheng Steward had said yesterday that the assessment would take place in Yuebaolou’s Alchemy room,

Lin Jing headed straight to the Yuebaolou’s Alchemy room.

Upon entering the courtyard, Lin Jing saw two people already waiting there.

When they saw Lin Jing arrive, they greeted him.

“Lin Daoyou…”

Lin Jing responded to them as well.

Then…

The three of them waited in the courtyard square, not talking but sitting in meditation to conserve their energy.

Because the upcoming Alchemy would be very consuming, it was important for all three to ensure they were fully energized.

It wasn’t much longer before the last Offering Priest arrived.

This last Offering Priest to take the assessment was the same Pill Master with the surname Wang who had been with Yu Yan before..
