When he heard this, Gui Xu said guiltily, "No … no need to thank me!"
All he had done was sit in there for a month.
Even if Ning An wanted to thank him, he would not be able to accept it!
Zi Chen narrowed his eyes. His gaze seemed to inadvertently sweep past Gui Xu Zizi before he looked away.
Gui Xu was a little afraid that he would accidentally say something, so he pushed Murong Lan and the others out and said, "Ning An, you guys go back first. I still have to tidy up some things. See you another day." With that, he closed the stone door.
Murong Lan stood outside, feeling a little strange.
Why did her teacher look a little guilty just now?
"Let's go." With that, Zi Chen headed outside.
When Lan Xiao and the others saw this, they did not say anything else and walked out together.
When they returned to the small courtyard, Murong Lan went to cook while Lan Xiao went to help. Only Zi Chen and Ning An were left in the room.
The atmosphere was a little tense. Zi Chen poured some tea and handed one of the cups to Ning An. "Ning An, do you really believe that Gui Xu's strength can last for a month?"
Ning An did not answer Zi Chen immediately. She rubbed the edge of the teacup with her fingers. Ning An was silent for a long time before she said, "I don't believe it."
When Gui Xu had taken out the jade slip, she had asked him how he had obtained it. He had said that he had obtained it by chance. At that time, she had been suspicious.
"Have you seen anyone in the past month?" Ning An knew that the person who had refined her in the past month was definitely not Gui Xu. She could tell from Gui Xu's expression just now.
"No." Zi Chen shook his head and fell silent.
In the past month, they had only left when they had classes. The rest of the time, they had been guarding Gui Xu's place. They had not seen anyone suspicious!
"That's right. I'll go look for Murong." With that, Ning An stood up and walked to the kitchen.
Zi Chen looked at Ning An in confusion. Why was she going to look for Murong Lan?
When he walked into the kitchen, Murong Lan was preparing to steam a fish while Lan Xiao was preparing the ingredients.
Taking the kitchen knife from Lan Xiao, Ning An said, "Lan Xiao, you go rest. I'll help. It's more convenient for a woman to do this."
Hearing this, Lan Xiao could only obediently walk out of the kitchen.
After cutting the chili into shreds, Ning An glanced at Murong Lan and asked, "Murong, when you helped me brush the red soil, did you also help me into the pill furnace?"
Murong Lan was just adding water to the pot when she heard this. She paused for a moment and turned to look at Ning An. "No, I was kicked out by the teacher after I finished painting the red soil for you."
Hearing this, Ning An knew that the other person supporting her at that time must be the one who refined her!
However, she had helped her reach the level of a deity. Why didn't she want to see her?
"Ning An, do you really not have any side effects?" Murong Lan was still a little worried.
After all, most quick methods had side effects!
"No." With that, Ning An placed the sliced chili on a plate and picked up some vegetables to cut.
There was nothing wrong with her body. This meant that that person did not use this matter to harm her. It was not someone who harmed her, but someone who specifically helped her. Who was this person?
"Ning An, I think you seem a little confused. However, I think that as long as you are fine, it's fine. Don't think about anything else." With that, Murong Lan took away the chili that Ning An had just cut!
