"Young miss?" Xiao Jun was really feeling dejected. Making the pills was his first task, but he had failed. When Gao Lan Mei said that the burnt pills were not a waste, he felt hopeful.

"Still a fail." Then she throws the burnt pill to Feng Ji. The little brown sparrow caught the pill with its tiny beak.

In a blink of an eye, the pill that was originally five times bigger than the small sparrow's beak was swallowed. 

Gulp! 

If the food was bigger than its mouth, it just needed to make its mouth bigger; which was exactly what had happened. Then after finishing the first pill, the little brown sparrow went inside the furnace and ate the remaining burnt pills.

After seeing this, Xiao Jun just shook his head, "Young miss, I will try again. Please let me try again!" he insisted. It was so close for the pill to form completely.

"Hmmm…" Gao Lan Mei nodded. She subconsciously touched her face that was covered by a blue veil, "We have limited herbs, try not to waste much."

She initially wanted some of the herbs to be used to refine Red Blemish Pill. At this rate of failure, she did not have a choice but have Xiao Jun use what they had.

The Red Blemish Pill would remove the scars on her face. After a day, the purple rose herb would arrive.

She just needed to look for Blood Vine herb then she could refine it.

It's not that she minded the scars. However, every time her parents saw her, they became sad. If she could make them happy, why not?

As they believed that she was now learning medicine, they were not yet visiting her courtyard to not bother her.

For the Core Fortifying Pill, it was an earth stage one pill that didn't need much herbs. It was very good for beginner pill refiners.

Gao Lan Mei was not sure if they would still have all the herbs needed to make the Red Blemish Pill at that time. She has three free batches of class C and D herbs. She really did not want to waste any of the herbs.

Not to mention that she also badly needed the Aptitude Qi Pill. That's the most important, but she could not force Xiao Jun to create that pill, as it was earth stage two pill.

"The time when the pills form and solidify, you should be patient and wait for most of the cracks to disappear before you increase the spiritual energy to seal it." Never mind with the herbs, this old fellow needed to master the stage one first.

…..

The sky was already dark when Gao Lan Mei decided to leave old man Xiao Jun. If the old man did not want to sleep that's his choice.

Looking at the dark sky, the moon shone brightly in its full glory. It was lonely in the sky as the stars were not present tonight.

"Beautiful." She always wanted to see the moon personally. Lifting her hand to try reaching it though she knew that she couldn't.

Smiling silly, "I will step on your soil soon." She said to the moon like a vow.

Gao Lan Mei was in a good mood when she arrived at her room to prepare to sleep. It's already passed dinner, the servants left the food on the table, though they hated to do so as it would be cold, she insisted.

Sitting on the chair to eat, she suddenly noticed something amiss, then smiling evilly, "We have a visitor."
