Su Ze raised his eyebrows. Gain her favor?
If it were in the past, Su Ze might not know what to do.
However, after going through the empress’s life, Su Ze had already come to a conclusion.
Then, he turned around and walked to his residence, preparing to refine the Cold Purging Pill!
While he was refining, he suddenly thought of another pill. It was the pill that the empress’s sister had once prepared for the empress about a few years before she passed away. After the pill was successfully refined, she passed away less than a year later.
She had kept it a secret from her, originally wanting to surprise her with it, but her life was cut short.
…
About two hours later.
Su Ze held the tightly wrapped Cold Purging Pill in his hand and stepped onto the red carpet of Guanghan Palace.
At the end of the red carpet was a huge throne. The empress was lounging on it.
Upon sensing his movement, the Empress slowly opened her eyes. An invisible pressure was immediately released towards Su Ze. The empress coldly asked, “Why did you make me wait for so long? Hmm?”
Su Ze felt this tyrannical pressure and grunted. His body trembled slightly, but he still calmly replied, “I was late because of something important.”
The empress narrowed her eyes, and a cold light flashed across her body. The red carpet was instantly covered with a layer of ice. The ice spread and instantly froze Su Ze’s feet. Only when his thighs were completely frozen did the ice stop spreading.
“I am asking you, what is more important than meeting me?” The empress narrowed her eyes and asked.
Su Ze felt a bone-chilling chill coming from his legs. His heart skipped a beat, but his expression did not change. “As far as I know, Sect Master’s constitution is quite special. There will be a special day every month, right?”
The Empress’s expression stiffened. She asked with a dangerous look in her eyes, “How do you know?”
“I can’t cultivate, so I can only gather more knowledge to enrich myself. I came across several body constitutions as I studied. It’s called the extreme ice root body. I think this is your body, right?” Su Ze said slowly, neither servile nor overbearing.
“This…” the empress’s eyes flashed with disbelief, but she quickly regained her composure. “So what does this have to do with you being late?”
Su Ze was neither servile nor overbearing. He showed the Cold Purging Pill to the empress. “Sect Master, as an alchemy empress, you should know what this is better than me, right?”
“Huh?”
The empress suddenly stood up and stared at the item in Su Ze’s hand. She muttered in disbelief, “This… This Is? The Cold Purging Pill?”
“That’s right. Sect Master, do you understand know?”
“Why do you have that? Tell me, who gave this to you?!” The empress, Mu Wanqing, suddenly became agitated. Even the ice on the ground was thickened.
The ice on Su Ze’s legs immediately condensed to his waist. He sucked in a breath of cold air and forced himself to calm down. “Cough, cough. Sect Master, if you want to know the reason, you don’t have to interrogate me, right?”
The empress took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
At that moment, there was only surprise and astonishment in her heart. She couldn’t understand why Su Ze had a Cold Purging Pill!

“Can you tell me where you got this Cold Purging Pill?” The empress calmed down and sat back down on the throne.
“I refined it myself,” Su Ze said calmly.
“Impossible! It’s absolutely impossible. Even I can’t refine a Cold Purging Pill. How can you possibly know how to do it?” The empress lost her composure in an instant. She raised her voice and said in disbelief.
“If even you can’t, then who around here would be able to give me a Cold Purging Pill?” Su Ze shrugged.
The empress didn’t say a word. Her eyes were filled with contemplation. She supported her chin with her fair hand and didn’t say a word.
Mu Wanqing felt that Su Ze was becoming more and more mysterious. She had only seen one person refine this Cold Purging Pill. It was her sister who had passed away centuries ago.
It was not that she had not tried it before, but she had failed. It was too unorthodox. It was not that she had not thought of looking for someone else to try it. However, it would also expose her weakness. How could she, the empress, ask for it?
That was why she was so agitated when Su ze took out the Cold Purging Pill.
Su Ze was late because he wanted to refine the Cold Purging Pill for her. Mu Wanqing suddenly felt a little touched.
This was the first time in centuries that she felt like someone cared to her.
Su Ze looked at the empress, whose expression kept changing. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
What he didn’t know was that the empress had already planned out his path for him, just because of a single medicinal pill. She was also looking upon him favorably.
“Then do you know what else I need to pay attention to with this constitution of mine?” The empress propped her chin on her hand. For the first time, a smile appeared on her face.
“Sigh, my back is a little sore from standing here.” Su Ze stretched his back.
Mu Wanqing smiled faintly. She raised her hand, and a seat appeared behind Su Ze out of thin air. She said with great interest, “What about now? Can you tell this venerable self about it?”
Su Ze sat down and crossed his legs. He thought for a moment and said, “According to the records, you will feel uncomfortable on the 15th of every month, right?”
The Great Empress Mu Wanqing nodded with a serious expression. “This is indeed the case. Do you have any solution?”
“Other than the Cold Purging Pill, there is another method. If you enter a state of meditation on the 15th of every month, I have a pill formula here that can ensure that you will be able to enter the state without any discomfort. What do you think, Sect Master?” Su Ze said with a smile.
“A pill that can seal your senses? This… is impossible. How can there be such a pill? I have been making pills for hundreds of years and have never heard of such a pill. Don’t try to deceive me!” The empress waved her hand in disbelief.
“Whether you believe it or not is up to you to decide. Take the Cold Purging Pill as a gift.” Su Ze smiled as he threw the cold dispelling pill and the pill formula that could seal one’s senses to the empress.
The empress caught the Cold Purging Pill and the pill formula. She looked at the pill formula in silence for a long time.
After a long while, she became even more shocked. She felt as if her face had turned pale. “This… This is real!”
“Then I’ll take my leave first.” Su Ze saw that the empress was immersed in the pill formula, and he couldn’t help but say this. Actually, this was also a test. Would the empress accept a gift from a disciple? This was unreasonable, right?
The empress came back to her senses. “I’ve seen your pill formula. It has great research value. I, the Great Empress of the Alchemy Path, will not take your things for free. You should keep these resources first. They should be of some use to you.”
The Empress looked at Su Ze with a complicated expression. “In the future, I may often look for you.”
Su Ze smiled and nodded. He took the interspatial ring and left Guanghan Palace without saying anything else.

The empress watched Su Ze’s back disappear and suddenly sighed. She muttered to herself, “When will I be able to correct this problem?”
The Empress’ extreme ice root body was very powerful, but it also had its downsides!
It was the cold wave that came on the 15th of every month. On this day, she was basically helpless. After that near-death experience, she would bar herself indoors on every 15th!
This was also her biggest weakness!
If this weakness disappeared, then the empress would unstoppable!
