"This..."
Pu Yanlan was taken aback, bit her lip, and then Shiyi asked again,
"If you can't answer, will your master take my pulse and let some blood out?"
Wouldn't that give it away?
Seeing that she couldn't answer, Shiyi burst into laughter and waved her hand, saying,
"What's there to be afraid of? Let it glare if it wants to, I'm not going to lose any meat!"
Could it possibly glare me into pregnancy?
Noticing Yanyan's continued unease, she thought for a moment, then comforted her best friend,
"I reckon that this furnace cauldron must have had a dragon soul sealed in it when it was made. When I walked in, it sensed the presence of its own kind, so it took an extra look at me, isn't that normal?"
That reason seemed surprisingly passable!
After pondering for a moment, Pu Yanlan nodded and said,
"Then let's start with refining the Heaven Returning Pill and see what happens!"
"Alright!"
