Inside, to his surprise, lay a pill formula!
But with Lu Chang'sheng's cultivation in the Alchemy Dao, he instantly saw through the formula's purpose.
The method for recording the Alchemy Dao inside was unique to Yan Yun—if he hadn't previously conversed with Yan Yun and read his alchemy books, he would have absolutely no way of deciphering its meaning.
After spending some time analyzing it, he sucked in a cold breath, and any displeasure toward Yan Yun's broken promise evaporated.
Because the formula detailed a major event: the immortal backing the Empress had suffered serious injuries, and as a master alchemist, Yan Yun was summoned to help that Immortal.
"No wonder!"
Never mind that Yan Yun was part of the official system under the Empress's command—even if he weren't, he'd have no way of refusing.
Given an Immortal's means, taking down an ordinary Innate Martial Artist would be child's play.
