Refining Pills For The Store!

Elizabeth, Rose and Lucifer speedily arrived in the store, hastily closed the door, and locked it.

*Phew*

Elizabeth and Lucifer exhaled a breath of relief, yet Rose still didn't know anything that happened to make them run away so suddenly, thus she just stood there watching them. Although she didn't see what happened, just looking at both Lucifer and Elizabeth's expressions she knew that it wasn't anything good.

She kept fidgeting with her clothes as she wanted to question them, yet she didn't want to interrupt them.

Elizabeth that saw how her sister was acting as she was looking towards them, every so often with an expectant gaze, made her giggle at how cute her sister was, thus she looked towards Rose and said, "I see that you want to know what happened, right? There was a man, much stronger than me, on his way towards us when we were in Silver's basement. He would have caught us if Lucifer wasn't there to warn us." After telling Rose that, they both couldn't help but stare at Lucifer, waiting for an explanation, however, he completely ignored them and didn't answer but instead just stated, "I want to go refine those pills you asked for, so can you tell me what you type of pills you want for the store and possibly give me the required herbs?"

Understanding that he didn't want to answer their question they could only shake their heads in disappointment, but when they heard that he will begin refining pills they instantly perked up at the thought of maybe getting their hands on a superior pill.

"Alright if you insist~ we will leave you alone for now. The pills that we want and need for ourselves as well as the store is the Qi replenishment pills; Foundation building pills; Qi enhancement pills; Qi acceleration pills; body cleansing pills; marrow washing pills; and more of those types of pills if you know any. Do you think you can handle it? If you can't then I will just refine the rest, as you continue with the others. We want you to make as much as possible of each pill, no need to worry about the herbs since we will be supplying them for you. Before going, remember that the herb room, where we store our herbs, is right next to the other room you stayed in previously. After getting the herbs you will want to a refining room, you can just go up into the attic, the attic is converted into a refining room by me, this honourable princess. I even hired a formation master to make put up a soundproof formation, with a formation that blocks the Qi from making another scene like the last time, and seals the fragrance that the pills will make from leaving the room."

After saying that she looked proudly at Lucifer as she asked with an expectant tone, "Satisfied with that?", which surprised even herself.

Lucifer noticed her behaviour and only thought that she wants to tease him again, thus he just nodded his head in approval before he walked away.

...

Still with the sisters in the front of the store, Rose was currently teasing her sister-master for what just happened.

After teasing her for a few minutes Rose suddenly asked, "Sis- Master are you sure that we have to go to father and mother to question them about this, you know how they are, right? They will immediately scold us for doing something so reckless followed mom that will spank us."

Fear instantly crept into their hearts at that thought, but no matter how unwilling she was, she still nodded her head as she replied, "Yes, I know... but there is nothing else we can do, we can only ask them to give us more information on Alex Springwater, his organization, Jimmy's dad and Lucifer. We must inform them about what happened furthermore we must ask them about the stuff we saw Lucifer do so far, also why they never told us about all of this danger that was slowly surrounding us, driving us into a corner."

Rose determinately nodded her head even when she was still flinching when she thought of their mother's angry/worried look as she lifts them over her knee as she spanks them. Remembering this Rose instantly lost all her courage and determination she built up, stared at her sister, she suggested with a pleading tone while she also made her eyes watery and hitting her sister with her signature move, The Puppy Dog Eyes, as she said.

"Are you sure about this sister~ Please, you know that they reminded us that they will punish us when we arrive earlier than we agreed upon, we didn't even complete the trial they gave us to make a living with our own abilities, maybe you can rethink this?"

Elizabeth's mind wavered for a moment, however, she immediately looked away from her as she began running away, yet Rose didn't give in and ran after her while pleading for her to reconsider.

This scene was very comical, a beauty in her late twenties being pursued by a beautiful eighteen-year-old girl. Laughter, screaming and chatting resounded throughout the store.

...

*Sigh*

After Lucifer arrived in the attic he heard the two girls laughter, however, he just sighed, smiled and shook his head before he began concentrating. Lucifer brought out his golden cauldron from his storage ring, placing it down in front of him, afterwards he stacked a heap, with lots of herbs, on the side.

He inhaled deeply before he grabbed a few herbs which included ginseng and Dang Gui for some of the Qi related pills he was making. He started refining the Qi related pills first because it was easier for him to do so, After he is done with this batch will he start refining the pills related to the body.

Analyzing the fire, heat, herbs and everything else so much he unconsciously entered a meditative state, where he was unconsciously absorbing a little bit of the pill Qi moreover he was slowly becoming one with the fire. He could feel his proficiency and control over his Qi and the fire increasing with each passing minute, making the refinement process much faster.

Several minutes later and his first batch of pills was completed. He opened the golden cauldron to see what the results were but an overwhelming aroma exploded out from it, filling the room with a sweet smell. Smiling in satisfaction at the smell and twenty high-grade pills lying in the bottom of the cauldron.

After checking his first batch and confirming that it was a success did he finally move on to the body related pills, which included the body purifying pill that will help push out the body's impurities. This cleansing process is very rare since it not only purifies your skin, it also purifies your organs, bones and even your blood. Lucifer is extremely fortunate that he was cultivating such a powerful manual, thus he had two impurity cleansings.

He grabbed a few herbs again, but this time it had Lotus Seeds with the ginseng instead of the Dang Gui. The combination of the Lotus Seeds and the ginseng was good at healing and extracting the 'evils' in the body.

Lucifer did the same as last time and refined the first batch to see if it worked, and... it did, thus he got another twenty high-grade body purifying pills which he stored inside his storage ring.

He continued to solely focus all of his attention on refining pills for the rest of the day, the following day and only after another week did he finally finish.

'It looks like it took me a bit over a week to finish doing a couple of months of work, which leaves me a lot of time to have for myself.' Lucifer thought to himself as he walked towards the front of the store where the girls were.

...

During the time Lucifer spent refining pills the sisters wanted to proceed towards their parents, but they - Elizabeth - chose to wait for Lucifer to finish refining the pills to show to their parents. They cultivated every day while watching for any surprise visitors.

"*Sigh* Sister ~ when is Lucifer done!? ~ We have been waiting for almost two weeks. Urgh! Just why did you make me wait with you?"

Elizabeth giggled seeing her sister's reaction, but she said 'sternly', "My, oh, my, I wonder what I just heard my lovely disciple calling me? I am so hurt, I may have to tell her parents that she was being Really ~ naughty."

Rose just pouted and turned her head away, however luckily Elizabeth calmed her down, "Alright, alright, stop being angry. We waited for him because we can show his skills and his pills to our parents. I also wanted to bring him with us since we will be asking questions about him and I don't want him to think that we are scheming behind his back. It's killing two birds with one stone."

A second after saying that they finally heard the attic ladder open and close as footsteps began moving towards them.

Elizabeth could feel her heartbeat increase with each step from excitement, the target fro her excitement is still undetermined, as she said, "It looks like he is already done. We-" but her words were cut off by a powerful fragrance that hit her nose, which even managed to stir a bit of her Qi, surprising her because there are no pills she knows about that can do this.

She almost jumped from excitement while looking towards the door, waiting for that handsome figure to enter her sights.

Seconds later Lucifer walked through the door with a perfectly round yellow pill, he showed to 'them' as he looked at Elizabeth with a smug face, as he asked, "Are these pills satisfactory?"

Elizabeth pouted at his teasing but quickly brushed it aside and eagerly nodded her head at his question.

She kept staring at the pill as a predator would look at its prey, but Lucifer swiftly stored it inside of a small box, that sealed the medicinal value inside so that it doesn't lose any, and also stored it inside his storage ring.

He innocently looked towards Elizabeth and asked, "What did you want to do when I get out?"

Even though she was irritated she responded, "We will be going to my parents today to try and figure out more about the situation."

Lucifer was startled, yet he was also excited to be able to meet the two people that could single-handedly stop Alex Springwater and his organization from overtaking the region.

Lucifer spoke with anticipation, "Alright, let's go, lead the way."

Elizabeth nodded and answered, "They live in the super-rich area in location xx so it will take about an hour to journey there without the use of Qi, but... if I use it, it will become a five-minute journey instead."

Lucifer thought about it and replied, "We first move a few hundred meters away from the store then you can grab us and use your Qi to head towards your parents' house."

Elizabeth agreed before they headed a few hundred meters away from the store, into a secluded street where there wasn't any people, spies in the area, nor any cameras. Lucifer did a quick sweep of the area with his soul power but saw nothing thus he signalled Elizabeth to begin.

She placed her hand on their shoulder before she began circulating her Qi into all of them and speeding towards the north where she and Rose's parents' house is.
