“Sis, it’s going to be successful this time, right?”
“We’ve consumed a few dozen pounds of blood essence and lost several hundred years of cultivation for nothing!”
“Yes! I’m beat!”
Exhausted, all fourteen women slumped to the ground with disregard to image and watched their eldest sister opening the pill cauldron and checking the situation. After all, the woman in white was the crux of the pill concoction. To put it bluntly, the rest of them simply provided the energy output.
The moment the eldest sister opened the pill cauldron, she saw strange totems surging on its surface and heard roars of immortal spirits and bizarre beasts.
Her eyes glistening, she said, “There is no mistake. Even the Thousand Floral Cauldron has emitted congratulatory noises, so how has concoction failed? After three attempts, we have finally had our wish granted. Everyone worked extremely hard during this time, and it was worth it. The young lord will come out of seclusion within the next few days. He will definitely remember our merits once he acquires this pill.”
“I don’t have any other request; I just want the young lord to hold me,” a woman gushed.
Then, the entire group continued chatting idly.
At that moment, the woman in white finally floated up and chanted at the pill cauldron to receive the pill.
“Rise!”
However, there was no movement.
“Huh..? … Rise!”
“…”
The eldest sister was startled. That should not have happened. She hurriedly poked her head into the pill cauldron and took a closer look, but…
“Huh?!”
“How come?! How is this possible?!”
“We’ve clearly succeeded… But why is there no pill?!”
Her exclamations caused many to jump in fright. Everyone looked at each other in dismay, unable to accept the outcome.
Alex was about to move.
Shelly, however, shook her head. “We are at Yukon Sanctuary, not to mention you still have the dog collar around your neck right now. That woman will come after us with the slightest abnormal movement. Hence, the wisest thing you can do now is to suppress the Great Star Pill’s medicinal effects.”
“How do I suppress it? I can’t. It’s too powerful.”
“You’ll have to figure it out on your own.”
It was then that Alex suddenly sensed an abnormal change of law in the collar around his neck. In olher words, that woman was attempting to spy on him again via mental communication.
‘What should I do?’
The quick-witted Alex immediately modified the mapping law of the collar with the Ten-Point Forbidden Spell, presenting the naked image of himself in the toilet.
‘I don’t believe you can keep watching such disgusting stuff!’
As expected, it was less than a second…
