This is truly a wonderful misunderstanding. Just like in the Pill King Hall, the people who were clearly in seclusion were Senior Brother and Seventh Brother Xiu, but what reached the ears of the other disciples was that she was in seclusion every day, either refining pills or cultivating.

I never expected to be misunderstood like this even after arriving at Mount Sainte.

This time, Ye Xiruo spent a full five days cultivating before emerging. The first thing she did was to have a big meal and drinks, and then, carrying her little white flag, she prepared to go sell pills.

The person who came to pick her up from the mountain was Su Shaxuan. After descending the mountain, she saw Shangguan Ling.

"Young Master, you've emerged from seclusion."

"Yes, we've refined the last batch of pills. Once they're sold out, we won't sell any more."

Shangguan Ling seemed to have thought of something, and a hint of reluctance appeared on her bright face: "You're leaving."

"Yes, after all, we've been away for so long, it's time to go back."

I will come to find you.

Shangguan Ling took a deep breath and stuffed a storage bag into Ye Xiruo's hand: "These are your favorite spirit stones."

Ye Xiruo naturally accepted it with a smile: "Senior Sister Shangguan understands my heart best. This is my token, which allows you to freely enter and leave the Pill King Hall."

Thank you.

"Senior Sister Su Sha, you don't need to. You can just use facial recognition to get in."

Su Shaxuan flicked her sleeves, left with the words "I'll pick you up later," and then left.

Su Shaxuan went to the library. Although more people knew about the confrontation that night, judging from Ye Xiruo's expression and Elder Lianqing's reaction, something must have happened. After that night, Ye Xiruo never set foot in the library again. And Ye Xiruo was about to leave, she should do something, and she believed her master wouldn't object.

Ye Xiruo's medicine stall reopened, and in just a short while, it was packed with people, making the scene even more bustling than the last exchange meeting.

"Please line up. Each person is limited to five bottles of pills. This is the last time we're selling pills. Thank you for your support."

Ye Xiruo's words caused a huge uproar. This was actually the last time. Why was that? This was the question everyone wanted to ask.

"I'm leaving." This is hardly a secret.

"Waaah, Young Master, please don't go! I'll take Elder Lianqing to the Pill King Palace to exchange for you, okay?"

"Young Master, do you need a maid? I can serve tea and water, massage your legs and shoulders, I can do everything."

"Young Master, do you need a bodyguard? I'm a top-notch fighter. I can take on any kind of bandit or thug."

"Young Master, please take us away!"

I don't know why, but the art style has changed to this.

Shangguan Ling covered her mouth and chuckled, "It seems you hold a high position in their hearts."

"Senior Sister Shangguan, please don't tease me. I'd like to take all of them with me; the entire Pill King Hall would probably go crazy with joy. But are you sure I won't get skinned alive by the elders?"

"That's true. We should have them throw a farewell party then, to make it more lively."

"No need for that! Parting is too sad."

"Whatever makes you happy."

The news of Ye Xiruo's departure spread quickly, bringing joy to some and sorrow to others. For the alchemists, this was fantastic news; they couldn't wait for Ye Xiruo to leave now and never return.

However, for the elders like Lianqing, Lianchi, and Lianrui, who had consumed the top-grade anti-aging pills, they were extremely reluctant to leave! Couldn't they stay a few more days?

The result, of course, was that it was impossible. The Holy Maiden was in seclusion, and the longer she stayed on Holy Maiden Peak, the more it affected the interests of some people. Their current inaction was simply a matter of waiting and searching for the right opportunity. If things continued like this, she wouldn't even know how she died.

Because of the sudden announcement of his departure, the disciples were all quite heavy-hearted. When buying pills, they all looked at Ye Xiruo with reluctance, saying, "Young Palace Master, you must come back to visit often in the future."

"Young Palace Master, may I visit you at the Pill King Palace when I go down the mountain for training in the future?"

"Young Master, you must work hard and become a Divine Master as soon as possible."

Ye Xiruo answered all these concerns seriously. Although there were some unsatisfactory aspects to Saintess Peak, she had such a lovely group of disciples and was already a loyal follower.

Ye Xiruo didn't bring many pills this time, and they were sold out in half a day.

"I'm sorry everyone, all the pills are sold out."

This time, both the disciples who bought the pills and those who didn't were heavy-hearted. The young master had only sold pills three times in total, and they were about to miss out on it all. How tragic!

"All good things must come to an end. We'll meet again someday."

"Everyone, please disperse! The young master is also deeply saddened." Shangguan Ling persuaded the disciples to leave. Ye Xiru packed her things and prepared to leave as well.

"Although it was only a short twenty-odd days, I was really happy to get to know you all."

"Master, I have recovered almost completely after taking the medicine. I am deeply grateful and will do anything for you in the future."

"With your temperament and talent, Elder, you would surely shine even without me. I am merely the icing on the cake. If you continue like this, we may not be able to remain friends."

"I believe we will meet soon. I will definitely compete for the top spot on the Heavenly Ranking."

"Yeah, I'll go cheer you on." Senior Brother, Seventh Brother Xiu, and Master will all be there. I wonder what everyone's overall skill level is, and what kind of combat power those alien races possess.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Xiruo took out a bottle of Three-Pattern Cleansing Pills from her ring and handed it to Shangguan Ling: "I am not a martial artist, but this bottle of Three-Pattern Cleansing Pills is just a small token of my effort."

"Master's matter has been resolved. I will go into seclusion tomorrow. Please be careful in everything you do."

After bidding farewell to Shangguan Ling, Ye Xiruo wandered around Saintess Peak, and along the way, the disciples of Ka'ai looked reluctant to part with her.

Could it be because her face had become more beautiful, making her more attractive? Actually, this was the face she was familiar with; after all, she had stared at this face for over thirty years in her previous life. This must be related to the illusion she had experienced. Ever since being rescued by the Holy Maiden, she had become like this, and she didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing. The Holy Maiden's explanation to the public was that she had disguised herself to avoid revealing her identity, and this was her true face. Elder Lianqing, Lianchi, and Sushaxuan had no doubts.

Finally, during the meal, I ran into Elder Lianqing and asked her to help me get back to the snow mountain.

"Are you really sure?"

"Not bad. My foundation has been solidified recently, and I can go to the lotus pond to cultivate. I've been out for so long, and I'm starting to want to go back."

"Okay, I'll make the arrangements right away. I'll take you to the lotus pond to cultivate tomorrow morning."

"Thank you, Elder."
