Before long, the door to the private room was gently pushed open.
An elderly man, dressed in a simple hemp robe with white hair and beard, walked in slowly.
The aura around him was calm and condensed, revealing a True Pill Late Stage cultivation.
There was also a faint herbal fragrance, formed from years of immersion in elixirs.
"I am Ying Kanwu, a tributor alchemist of the Commerce Alliance, and I have come to meet Fellow Daoist Shen."
The elder's voice was calm, and his gaze turned sharp as it landed on the jade bottle on the table.
Shen Xuan stood up and nodded slightly in return, "Fellow Daoist Ying is too kind, please."
Ying Kanwu said no more, stepping forward to carefully pick up the jade bottle, pouring a crimson-gold Spirit Pill into his palm.
The fragrance of the pill became stronger, even causing the Spiritual Qi in the room to become more lively.
