Ye Wushuang reiterated, “Remember this well: I help you and your father because it’s the right thing to do. You owe me nothing, understand?”
“From now on, never speak such words again, and do not kneel so casually!”
Xu Qi Yuan scratched his head and replied with a simple smile, “I understand.”
“Alright, let’s eat together!”
……
In the following days, Ye Wushuang still did not return to Qingyun Academy.
During the daytime, she taught Qing Shiyu to control her Pure Yuan Spirit Body, instructed Xu Qi Yuan in the art of formations, and guided Tang Tianyou in the practice of alchemy.
At night, she used the scent of deer antler to awaken the spiritual bloodline of Ye Feifei.
Moreover, she requested a large number of medicinal materials from Qingyun Pavilion and began to refine her own pills.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, a graceful figure arrived at the Ye residence.
“Ye Wushuang!”
Mu Qi Qi appeared outside Ye Wushuang’s alchemy room.
With a creak, the door opened, revealing Ye Wushuang, her white robe covered in dust, her long hair disheveled and unkempt, looking as if she had aged overnight, like a beggar.
“Why… why do you look like this?” Mu Qi Qi was taken aback.
“I’m refining pills!”
Ye Wushuang then returned to her room.
Mu Qi Qi entered the alchemy room and was met with a chaotic scene, filled with a mix of various scents.
Ye Wushuang led Mu Qi Qi to a secluded chamber at the back of the alchemy room.
“You’ve arrived just in time. I’ve been at home these past few days, and it’s about time I returned to the academy.”
Ye Wushuang continued, “These pills here, you can take them to Qingyun Pavilion for auction. Some are also for your father.”
Mu Qi Qi stood there, dumbfounded, staring at the shelves lined with various jade vials and brocade boxes.
Ye Wushuang explained, “There are seventeen types of first-grade spirit pills here, such as Biyun Pill, Sanyuan Pill, Tongxin Pill, and so on, with about a hundred pills of each type.”
“Moreover, there are six types of second-grade spirit pills, including Jufu Pill and Heming Pill. The Jufu Pill is particularly effective for warriors at the Yuanfu realm in opening their spiritual palaces. Your Qingyun Pavilion has pill masters who can appraise them and set the price.”
“Second-grade spirit pills?”
Mu Qi Qi was stunned for a moment before she asked, “Ye Wushuang, you can refine second-grade spirit pills now?”
“Yeah…” Ye Wushuang nodded, “During the trial on Lingyun Mountain, I merged with a geothermal fire, which improved the quality of my alchemical fire. It’s just barely enough.”
Barely enough?
Mu Qi Qi was left speechless.
As an alchemist herself, she knew well how incredible it was to refine second-grade spirit pills without reaching the Yuanfu realm.
Alchemists were not less concerned about their cultivation levels than ordinary warriors; in fact, they needed it even more.
Without reaching the Yuanfu realm, a warrior’s essence, energy, and spirit would hardly be able to sustain the consumption required to refine second-grade spirit pills.
Ye Wushuang, merely at the sixth level of the Condensation Meridian realm, had managed to do it?
And not just one, but six types of second-grade spirit pills!
“Monster…” Mu Qi Qi muttered, her eyes gradually shining as she looked at Ye Wushuang.
Feeling Mu Qi Qi’s gaze, Ye Wushuang raised an eyebrow and slowly said, “I’m just cooperating with your Qingyun Pavilion. I saved your father, and you help me sell the pills. That’s all. There’s no clause about selling myself!”
“Huh?”
Mu Qi Qi was bewildered.
Ye Wushuang continued, “Don’t look at me with such admiration, or if you fall for me, I won’t take any responsibility!”
“Eh?” Mu Qi Qi was even more stunned.
“What kind of dream are you having? Like I would ever take a liking to you?” Mu Qi Qi huffed indignantly.
“That’s good to hear.”
Ye Wushuang continued to organize the pills and instructed Mu Qi Qi on how to administer them to her father.
Finally, Ye Wushuang said, “I’ve used the second-grade spirit pills to suppress your father’s injuries. He will feel much better now and won’t suffer any more torment.”
“Thank you, Ye Wushuang!” Mu Qi Qi said sincerely, “I have a rather unreasonable request.”
“Since it’s unreasonable, then don’t even mention it,” Ye Wushuang replied with a poker face.
Mu Qi Qi immediately became annoyed, “Ye Wushuang, do you even have any emotional intelligence? A woman with my looks, status, and temperament is hard to find even with a lantern in the entire Qingyun Empire. Besides Shihua and Shiyu, who else can compare with me? Are you so impatient with a beauty?”
