After emerging from seclusion, Ye Xiruo took out one hundred top-grade youth-preserving pills from her ring, followed by one hundred exquisite white jade bottles. She began bottling and packaging them, each bottle engraved with a beautiful ten-petaled sacred lotus, surrounded by the emblem of the Pill King Palace. This served both to promote the Pill King Palace and to cater to the tastes of those ruthless elders.

After finally finishing packing, Elder Lianqing rushed over in a flurry. Unlike the previous meeting, Elder Lianqing was beaming with pride, a mischievous smile on her pretty face: "Young Palace Master, you've finally emerged from seclusion."

"Yes, I'm sorry to have kept the elder waiting. It's truly my fault."

"I've done the math, and we need a total of sixty-eight Youth Preservation Pills. Do you have that many in stock?"

"Yes, we do." Ye Xiruo waved her hand, and sixty-eight bottles were placed directly on the table: "In each bottle is a Youth Preservation Pill."

Elder Lianqing took a bottle, looked at it, and then poured some into her hand to examine it again: "Tsk tsk tsk, what a grand gesture! This bottle is also quite exquisitely made."

"This was designed by my second senior brother himself."

"Not bad, not bad, I'm sure they'll love it." Elder Lianqing tossed Ye Xiruo a ring: "All the spirit stones are here, count them."

“Of course I trust Elder Lianqing.” Ye Xiru put all the Youth Preservation Pills into an empty ring and handed it directly to Elder Lianqing: “Elder Lianqing, you have worked hard these past two days. I hope you can show your face in front of the disciples more often.”

Elder Lianqing snorted coldly, "In my current state, where is there any dignity left for an elder? I'd rather die than go."

"Two jars of spirit wine."

"At least three jars." Elder Lianqing raised the price without changing her expression. Ye Xiruo nodded and agreed. She would be a fool to miss such a good advertisement.

"I'm leaving now. Let me know when you're coming down the mountain in the next couple of days. An elder has some things to discuss with you in person."

“Σ(°△°|||)︴. What's wrong? Is it important?”

"It's about the Rejuvenation Pill. This elder is a Golden Core cultivator. He went down the mountain for training and suffered severe burns to his face while saving someone. He has been staying on Saintess Peak for many years and has never come down the mountain."

"It's a real pity. Didn't any disciples or elders who went down the mountain bring back the Youth Rejuvenation Pill?"

"The burns are quite severe, and only the highest grade of the Rejuvenating Pill can completely repair my appearance. However, the highest grade of the Rejuvenating Pill is extremely rare and hard to come by, so it has been delayed for so many years."

"I see."

The Bloodthirsty Demon Vine was still evolving. Ye Xiruo took a break, sorted all the pills, and called Su Shaxuan up. The two of them prepared to discuss how to sell the medicine.

"The places with the highest foot traffic are the square, the mission hall, and the canteen."

"Won't your stall be confiscated if you set it up like this?"

"You are a distinguished guest of Saintess Peak, so those people in the Punishment Hall will turn a blind eye."

Ye Xiruo was completely dumbfounded, never expecting that the seemingly upright Su Shaxuan would be like this.

"Don't you have any exchange meetings or anything like that?"

"Yes, it will be available in three days. I think you can safely set up your stall tomorrow. Sell some first and let them advertise for you. The exchange meeting in three days will definitely be a big success."

That sounded like it made a lot of sense, so Ye Xiruo nodded: "Then I'll set up a stall tomorrow. If I'm unfortunately caught, I must notify Elder Lianqing to come and rescue me."

"Don't worry! I won't just stand by and watch you get arrested. I will definitely come to save you."

"Is the Holy Maiden in seclusion?"

Su Shaxuan nodded with a complicated expression. It was best not to let Ye Xiruo know about the Holy Maiden's depletion of her power.

"Will my actions affect your cultivation?"

"No, having that bottle of Three-Pattern Cleansing Pills has already saved me a lot of time."

"Ah, if only Senior Brother were here. He can basically refine any pill that can be taken by cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage."

"Don't be discouraged, you're already very good."

"I want to go down and practice my sword."

Su Shaxuan led Ye Xiruo down the snow mountain. The disciples in the square were all holding swords and practicing diligently. The light and determination in their eyes made Ye Xiruo feel a little ashamed. These were the people who were truly devoted to swordsmanship.

Su Shaxuan demonstrated the technique again, and Ye Xiruo, sword in hand, followed behind the disciples, practicing her swordsmanship five times before stopping. She had almost mastered the swordsmanship. The other disciples were also practicing very well, but they were still meticulously practicing their swordsmanship.

Ye Xiruo was somewhat puzzled: "These sword moves are simple and unadorned, and there's nothing special about them. Why practice them over and over again instead of practicing more advanced sword techniques?"

"This is the basic sword technique of Mount Saintess. It needs to be practiced hundreds of times every day. This is the importance of the basics. The key to sword practice is perseverance. If you can't even persevere with this, what right do you have to be a swordsman?"

"Been taught a lesson."

“You are different from them. You are an alchemist. You may never experience the joy of swordsmanship, but as long as you remember that the sword in your hand can protect your life, that is enough. The Holy Maiden has decreed that all the cultivation techniques of Holy Maiden Peak are open to you. You must not fail to live up to the Holy Maiden’s good intentions.”

Ye Xiruo felt a pang of sadness. Cultivation techniques are the foundation of a sect's inheritance, and the fact that the Holy Maiden could achieve this level showed that she truly meant her no harm.

Thinking back to what the saintess had said before, perhaps she wanted her to grow up quickly so she could find her mother and father!

After the meal, Su Shaxuan led Shi Yexi Ruo directly into the library. The library was also located on a snow-capped mountain, and like the mountain, it was protected by restrictions that prohibited flying. However, there were places where one could use leverage to fly directly up. This was also a good way to train the disciples.

Ye Xiruo and Su Shaxuan flew up smoothly. The library has four floors and looks very ordinary from the outside, but the sense of antiquity and vicissitude passed down through the ages cannot be replaced by any gorgeous decoration.

This seemingly ordinary library must be a gathering place for the most outstanding experts of Saintess Peak, and Ye Xiruo felt a little nervous.

"Xuan girl, you've arrived."

The sudden appearance of the voice and the ancient figure floating out made Ye Xiruo's hair stand on end. She hadn't even noticed the level of cultivation this person possessed.

"By order of my master, I have brought the young master to the library for observation."

The person, whose bones seemed to have all fallen apart and who was lazily leaning against the soft couch, nodded and tossed a sign to Su Shaxuan: "Beneath the third floor, you may browse freely, but you may not copy, imitate, or reproduce."

"Elder, Master means the entire cultivation method."

"This is the decision of the elders."
