Outside the door.
A moment passed.
Gongsun Bei gradually lost his patience and knocked on the door forcefully a few more times.
There was still no sign of the stone door opening.
"Could it be not in the Alchemy room?"
He frowned involuntarily, waited a little longer, and finally couldn't stand it anymore, turning around to leave.
Just then, the stone door slowly opened.
"Oh, Lord Gongsun, is there something you need from this disciple?"
Mu Qing feigned ignorance, standing behind the door, suspiciously looking at Gongsun Bei.
"Why did it take so long to open the door?"
Gongsun Bei asked with a frown.
Mu Qing quickly replied, "This disciple was just doing Alchemy, any offense, please forgive me, my lord."
Gongsun Bei entered the Alchemy room and sniffed; indeed, there was a strong medicinal aroma in the air, so he didn't pursue the matter further.
Then.
