「The next morning.」
Teacher Zhang arrived at the school's training room and asked Gu Ming, "Did you bring the medicinal ingredients from last night?"
Gu Ming scratched his head and said,
"I've already refined those medicinal ingredients.
"When they arrived at my house, Cyan Treasure accidentally spilled water on them, and all the ingredients got wet.
"To prevent their potency from declining, I went ahead and refined them myself that same night."
Hearing this, Teacher Zhang didn't blame Gu Ming for not reporting it sooner. He simply said,
"How did the refinement go? Let me see."
Gu Ming knew he probably couldn't hide the medicine, so he brought a bit of the ointment he had made last night.
After Cyan Treasure ate it last night, its stomach felt fiery hot the entire night, as if a Holy Fire was burning wildly inside its body.
When Gu Ming took out a small package and revealed the white ointment, Teacher Zhang smelled a milky fragrance.
