Lu Chuan returned home and, after triple checking that no one would disturb him, hurriedly set to work on crafting the Spirit Melding Pill.
Late at night.
Lu Chuan walked out of the kitchen with a smile on his face, holding a golden elixir pill in his hand.
"My talent in pill crafting should rank highly even in the Immortal Cultivation World; I can't believe I succeeded in creating the fairly advanced Spirit Melding Pill on my first try."
He looked up at the time and saw that it was already twelve o'clock. On a whim, he glanced towards Mu Nanqing's room.
"I've been so focused on crafting the pill that I haven't paid attention to anything else; I don't even know if sister-in-law has come back yet."
After hesitating for a moment, he walked to Mu Nanqing's door and gently pushed it open.
Seeing Mu Nanqing lying asleep on the bed in her camisole nightgown, and with the blanket kicked onto the floor, Lu Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.
