The pill tester Qin Wen had found arrived quickly. He was a middle-aged man.
His face was a ghastly dark green, and he looked like a consumptive ghost. His body was so hunched over that he couldn't even stand up straight.
The three of them faced each other in the courtyard.
Bai Mo's eyelids twitched as he watched, unable to shake the worry that this man wouldn't be able to withstand the Pill's effects.
He pulled Qin Wen aside and asked in a low voice,
"How did you find someone like this? Don't tell me we're going to get someone killed."
Although the ore-based Pill was potent, the Pill Formula was vouched for by the Sect Elders, and Bai Mo had refined it himself.
He was still confident he could ensure nothing went wrong.
But with a man who looked like a consumptive ghost, it was a different story.
Qin Wen forced a smile.
