Tang Quan immediately said: “I don’t have much to teach, I merely demonstrated the pill refining methods you taught me.”

Although Mi Li was a bit nervous, she spoke calmly.

“I’ve studied the Jade Marrow Pill Formula for many years, and with your understanding, President, I proceeded step by step by analogy.”

“Originally, I planned to refine it myself. However, after several failures, I still gained nothing. Little Ling Jun wanted to give it a try, so …”

Under Luo Chen’s stern countenance, the others dared not breathe heavily.

Even Qu Lingjun, who was initially filled with anticipation for Luo Chen’s praise, now stood stiffly on the spot with pursed lips.

Hearing their explanations, Luo Chen suddenly understood.

Indeed, in terms of time spent on researching the Jade Marrow Pill Formula, he indeed doesn’t have as much as Mi Li.

After all, this pill formula originated from the Mi Family.

Additionally, Mi Li was the first person to be cultivated by Mi Shuhua as a pill refiner.

She must have already memorized the ratios of the ingredients in the formula.

What she lacked, was only familiarity and a bit of talent.

Regarding skills, although Luo Chen had never taught others, he wasn’t stingy in teaching Tang Quan some techniques when Tang was refining the Allure Pill.

What he didn’t expect was that Qu Lingjun was able to learn by analogy under such circumstances and actually managed to refine a Lower Grade Jade Marrow Pill.

Luo Chen looked deeply at Qu Lingjun.

He spoke in a low voice: “Don’t wander off after the ceremony, I will find you later.”

After saying this, he carefully pocketed the Jade Marrow Pill.

Before he left, he paused for a moment.

He said, “This gift, I like it very much.”

With these words, the atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed.

Mi Li sighed a breath of relief.

The youngster standing by her side also showed a bright smile.

“President, allowing Mi Li and Qu Lingjun to refine the pill was my decision.”

In the Universe Hall, Sima Huiniang took responsibility.

“At that time, you were in a closed-door cultivation for too long, our relations with the Great Lake Gang, Nangong Family, and even Li Family, Chen Family were becoming more and more tense.”

“We didn’t dare to disturb you, but we couldn’t stop the elixir business. So, we tried to let Mi Li, who has a little achievement in pill refining technique, to refine the Jade Marrow Pill.”

“But unexpectedly, the one who have finally refined the Jade Marrow Pill was Qu Lingjun.”

Luo Chen’s gaze congealed, “How many failures has he experienced?”

Sima Huiniang took out the records from the Pill Hall, did not open it, but silently handed it to Luo Chen.

As Luo Chen browsed through, she reported in detail.

“In all, he attempted to refine the Jade Marrow Pill seventy-nine times.”

“Out of the first thirty-five attempts, three had come close to forming pills.”

“The first real success was after the sixtieth attempt. That time, seven pills were formed, along with ten waste pills.”

“The Jade Marrow Pill that he had given to you should be from the batch he refined five days ago. That time, eleven pills were formed, all lower grade.” Seventy-nine times.

Thirty-five, sixty, seven, eleven…

These numbers passed through Luo Chen’s mind one by one.

After a long while, he closed the record and returned it to Sima Huiniang.

“I understand. This time, it’s mainly a reward. You, along with Tang Quan and Mi Li will all receive rewards.”

“But the next time, no, there won’t be a next time.”

“Without my permission, the Pill Hall is not allowed to let anyone refine pills that I have not approved.”

He didn’t say what the punishment would be if this were to happen again.

However, given Luo Chen’s usual harsh approach when dealing with external affairs, if someone within the organization were to make a mistake, there likely wouldn’t be a good end.

Sima Huiniang felt a chill spreading from her back.

She quickly bent over and respectfully acquiesced.

“President, what about Qu Lingjun?”

Luo Chen glanced at her and said indifferently: “I have other arrangements for him, you will know when the time comes.”

“Yes!”

After dealing with this matter, there was still some time left.

Sima Huiniang reported to Luo Chen all the various matters that had been accumulated over the past year, one by one.

Most of these she had already made decisions and implemented them.

Now, they needed Luo Chen to review them. If there was anything wrong, Luo Chen would naturally point it out.

It also happened to require Luo Chen to handle some matters that were still pending.

“Ghost City seems to be getting more and more dangerous?”

Luo Chen furrowed his brows, even before he had the chance to ask Sima Huiniang, there were footsteps coming from outside the hall.

He stopped his actions and watched the people walk in.

The first to enter were Qin Liangchen and his wife, with complex expressions on their faces.

“Congratulations on your Foundation Establishment, President!”

“Congratulations on your Foundation Establishment, President!”

It is no longer the familiar Luo Chen they knew.

But a heartfelt salutation of “President”.

Luo Chen sighed inwardly, he had observed this inclination long ago.

He concealed his feelings, revealed a smile, and invited the two to sit down.

Next, there entered the usually silent Duan Feng, the elated Gu Caiyi, and Granny Yuan, who was supported by her grandson, Yuan Dongsheng, and hobbled in.

In this way, the six hall masters of Luo Tian Creed gathered together.

Everyone greeted Luo Chen warmly and sincerely.

As for how much envy and frustration was contained in their words, that was hard to say.

Luo Chen gracefully accepted it all.

There was no longer the relaxed conversation that he had with Zeng Wen and his family in the outer hall.

He knew that the changes in cultivation realms, the differences in status, have unknowingly changed the way they interacted.

Open-minded people like Zeng Wen are rare.

This is a man who daringly asked for compensation from Mi Shuhua, a Middle Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, under everyone’s gaze.

Luo Chen was very clear about these.

He still treats these people as friends.

However, he would not show it in his words, but in his future interactions, he would manifest his friendship.
