Chapter 28: An Heirloom

After Mr. Hu left, Yi Qianmo gave all the lower-grade Qi Nourishing Pills to the old man and then went to the reception room.

Although these lower-grade Qi Nourishing Pills are very helpful for Yi Qianmo, he still has medium and high-grade Qi Nourishing Pills in hand, making it easy for him to break through to the Qi Refining Stage.

The lower-grade Qi Nourishing Pills will be even more beneficial for Grandpa. If Grandpa can break through to the Qi Refining Stage, the Yi family’s position will truly be secure.

When he arrived at the meeting room, he saw his sister laughing and talking with a woman, who was the same woman in white he had met earlier at the Medicine Market.

Upon seeing her brother, Yi Lingyu quickly ran to his side and said, "Brother, this sister says she can help us."

Yi Qianmo smiled and patted her head, saying, "Lingyu, go to Grandpa first. Grandpa said he wants to give you a gift."

"Okay."

Yi Lingyu immediately ran out, remembering to close the door as she left.

Yi Qianmo sat down opposite the woman in white and said, "What brings you to my home? I remember that I already gave you that spiritual herb."

"If you hadn’t given me that spiritual herb, I might not be here alone."

The woman in white looked down at him and said, "Let me introduce myself again, I am Su Muyu, and I come from the capital city."

"What did you mean by that last statement?"

Yi Qianmo said with a cold expression.

"I live with the Yu family."

Su Muyu smiled and said, "If I wanted to, destroying your Yi family would be as easy as saying a single word."

Yi Qianmo furrowed his brow and said, "Are you a helper sent by the Yu family?"

"Helper?"

Su Muyu laughed and shook her head, saying, "That depends on whether you know how to behave. But I can tell you that I am here representing only myself, or you could say, I represent Tianyuan Academy."

"Tianyuan Academy?"

Yi Qianmo was slightly surprised, "Tianyuan Academy of the Yan Kingdom?"

"It seems Yu Youwei told you quite a few secrets."

Su Muyu was a bit surprised.

Yi Qianmo didn’t say anything, just looked at Su Muyu. He hadn’t thought much of Su Muyu before, but this was different when it came to Tianyuan Academy.

The Green Cloud City where he lived belonged to the Yan Kingdom, which had nearly hundreds of such cities, with the capital being the royal capital of the Yan Kingdom.

Tianyuan Academy is the only place within the Yan Kingdom that can be compared to the immortal gates and was established by the royal family of the Yan Kingdom.

Su Muyu was right; all these secrets were told to him by Yu Youwei, of course, before their relationship fell apart.

"What do you want to do?" Yi Qianmo asked.

"I want to give you a chance."

Su Muyu said, "I will give you a chance to enter Tianyuan Academy. Once you are in Tianyuan Academy, even if Yu Youwei joins Xuanyuan Sect, you can ignore her!"

"As far as I know, although Tianyuan Academy is comparable to the Immortal Sects, it is not quite the same as the Immortal Sects!"

Yi Qianmo said.

"That was a long time ago. The current Tianyuan Academy stands alongside the Four Great Immortal Sects," Su Muyu said.

"You’re not an immortal, are you?" Yi Qianmo asked.

"Not yet," Su Muyu said.

Su Muyu said.

"You’re not even an immortal, so how can you help me enter Tianyuan Academy?" Yi Qianmo mocked.

Su Muyu was not angry; she calmly took out a token from her pocket, which had the ancient words "Tianyuan" engraved on it.

"Tianyuan Decree!"

Yi Qianmo stood up and asked, "Who are you really?"

With the Tianyuan Decree, one can enter Tianyuan Academy directly, and not just the outer mansion, but the inner mansion for training.

"You don’t need to know who I am; you just need to know that I can give you a chance to enter Tianyuan Academy."

Su Muyu said.

"I don’t believe something good will just fall from the sky; if it did… then I must be seeing things," Yi Qianmo said.

"You speak just as interestingly as Yu Youwei."

Su Muyu smiled as she put away the Tianyuan Decree, appearing generous, and said, "You are right; good things never fall from the sky. To get the Tianyuan Decree and enter the inner mansion for training, you must have enough talent. I wonder if you do!" Yi Qianmo understood her meaning and said, "You want to know why my Yi family suddenly gained two innate talents? And how I broke through to innate in such a short time?"

Su Muyu nodded, waiting for him to continue.

Yi Qianmo had nothing more to say; he simply took out a jade bottle and poured out a pill.

"Qi Nourishing Pill! Medium grade!"

This time, Su Muyu lost her composure. She stood up and reached out to snatch the pill from his hand.

But just like last time, her hand was not as quick as Yi Qianmo’s. When she saw him put the pill away, Su Muyu realized her mistake and sat back down.

"If what you say is true, that Tianyuan Prefecture can stand alongside the immortal sects, then a person from Tianyuan Prefecture shouldn’t lose control just at the sight of a medium-grade Qi Nourishing Pill!"

Yi Qianmo’s eyes were filled with doubt.

"Although a medium-grade Qi Nourishing Pill is not a rare pill in Tianyuan Prefecture, it is also not common, but…"

At this point, Su Muyu stared intently at Yi Qianmo, "In Green Cloud City, and in your hands, it is different!"

"Are you saying that a mere mortal like me is not qualified to use such a potion?"

Yi Qianmo asked.

"Are you qualified?"

Su Muyu said, "Tell me, how did you get this Qi Nourishing Pill?"

"I made it myself."

Yi Qianmo said.

"Hmm?"

Su Muyu was taken aback for a moment and sneered, "You? Make a Qi Nourishing Pill? Hahaha, what a joke! You don’t even have spiritual power, how can you make potions! Besides, what gives you the right to make potions?"

Yi Qianmo was not angry; he calmly said, "Three hundred-year-old Huangjing, one Dragon Lizard Grass, thirty leaves of Seven Fragrance…"

He suddenly named ten kinds of medicine, and after he finished, he looked at Su Muyu.

"This… this is the recipe for the Qi Nourishing Pill. Where did you learn this?"

Su Muyu’s expression began to grow serious.

But Yi Qianmo ignored him and continued, "When making pills, the most important things are refining the medicine, controlling the heat, and understanding the properties of different herbs, how they work together. But that is just the beginning. Every recipe needs to be tested countless times, and the Qi Nourishing Pill… If Yi Qianmo just knew the recipe for the herbs, what he said next went far beyond the recipe itself.

At first, Su Muyu was just doubtful, but as Yi Qianmo spoke, she widened her mouth and then opened her eyes in surprise.

When Yi Qianmo finished speaking, Su Muyu was frozen in place, her body still trembling slightly.

Yi Qianmo waved his hand in front of her, and she finally snapped out of it, trembling as she said, "Where did you learn all this? Yu Youwei couldn’t have told you, she is not a Pill Master."

Yi Qianmo smiled and said, "It’s a family secret."

"…" Su Muyu.
