In her previous life, Ye Xiruo was betrayed by her husband and best friend, dying a tragic and desolate death.
In a single moment of transmigration, she becomes a "jinx" who brings di...
Could it be true, as my junior sister said, that the aphrodisiac pill she refined is a rare and exquisite product, one that one would want to use again and again?
With a black line on his forehead, Si Hao headed straight for Ye Ruo Palace. In just three days, the aphrodisiac pills had sold out completely. Many customers even came specifically for the pills, waiting anxiously in front of the shop every day, hoping for new stock when it reopened. Si Hao was also in a terrible predicament. He had long since run out of stock, and if this continued, those customers would definitely smash up his pill shop.
Ye Xiruo leaned comfortably against the soft couch, brewing a pot of "Soul Cleansing" tea, and was slowly savoring it. Danfeng and the leader of the Punishment Hall did not take advantage of her absence to disobey her orders, but instead carried them out meticulously, leaving her with no reason to criticize them.
So these elders really are cunning old foxes, aren't they?
Following that, she issued several orders as instructed by her senior brother. Several elders jointly submitted a letter of opposition, stating that such actions would put the Danwang Palace in the spotlight and might even provoke a joint crackdown by Ashley.
Ye Xiruo casually remarked, "Right now I am a thirteen-year-old fifth-grade alchemist. The day I become an eighteen-year-old king-level alchemist, who will dare to be presumptuous?"
The elders fell silent. Starting with the throne, the Palace Master's eye for accepting disciples had made a qualitative leap. One Zishu was already enough to make the elders overjoyed, and now there was another prodigy, Ye Xiruo. Yes, she is very weak now, but once she grows up, she will become a towering tree, and no one can shake her position, let alone the position of the Pill King Palace.
Now is the time for the sect to protect the young hall master. After returning, the elders went to carry out Ye Xiruo's orders with great pride and high spirits.
Ye Xiruo thought these old men were quite cute, much better than that perverted Supreme Elder of Saintess Peak.
With the help of these lovely elders, Ye Xiruo's days became increasingly leisurely. She would occasionally go to the mission hall to take on some missions. Earning spirit stones was secondary; the main purpose was to verify what she had learned in her life.
Upon returning, he immediately retreated to his spatial realm to refine pills and cultivate.
Her aphrodisiac pills were becoming increasingly easier to refine, almost all of them being of superior quality, with the occasional top-grade one. Not every pill was as miraculously effective as the Youth-Preserving Pill. Ye Xiruo's confidence soared, giving her a tremendous sense of accomplishment, as if she were about to reach the pinnacle of life, sleeping on a bed of spirit stones every day and counting them.
Even now, when Ye Xiruo saw Si Hao, the smile on her face did not change.
"Second Brother, what a rare guest! Come and have some tea."
Si Hao smelled the familiar fragrance on the tip of his nose, and then glanced at Ye Xiruo, who seemed paralyzed and wished she could bury herself in the soft couch. He sighed silently. How could the difference between people be so great?
Judging from her posture, junior sister is increasingly adopting her master's style.
"I've come here today to ask for elixirs?"
Ye Xiruo took a sip of the Soul Cleansing Pill, and her soul felt much more refreshed: "Back then, I practically offered myself to you, but you refused. Now you regret it, know how powerful the aphrodisiac pill is, and want to try it yourself?"
Si Hao's face darkened: "I'm fine, why would I need an aphrodisiac?"
Ye Xiruo looked at Si Hao with an innocent expression: "No problem, I'll eat a few too, just in case, to prevent any unforeseen circumstances."
Si Hao really wanted to drag this little thing off the soft couch and give her a good beating. How could every word she said lead her to persuade him to take drugs? He had already told her that he was not sick and did not need to, so why wouldn't she listen?
Then, Si Hao put on a sinister expression: "Junior Sister, do you know your spirit stones are still with me?"
"Second Senior Brother, it's wrong of you to avoid seeking medical help like this. I can give you a few more potent aphrodisiac pills. Please don't do anything rash or take your anger out on my spirit stones."
There was simply no way to have a pleasant conversation. Si Hao was furious and sat weakly in his chair, thinking that his junior sister was just not thinking straight. This was already in its late stage and there was no cure.
After drinking a cup of Soul Cleansing, Si Hao got down to business: "Your aphrodisiac pills are sold out. You figure out what to do! Anyway, the spirit stones are right there."
Ye Xiruo's expression, as if she had known all along, made Si Hao's teeth itch with frustration. All the work he had done these past two days had been for nothing.
"Isn't this only natural? My pills are so good, the sick want to take them, and the healthy want to take them even more."
"Go and talk to your master if you dare. I'm sure he'll be very pleased."
Ye Xiruo's eyes widened: "Second Senior Brother, you've slandered Master, you're finished."
"You'd better think of something quickly, or my shop will be smashed up." A couple of days ago, those people were patiently waiting, but now their resentment is growing stronger and stronger. They're practically ready to smash and loot. How easy is it for him to run his small business? Si Hao also felt utterly wronged.
Ye Xiruo flicked her sleeve and took out hundreds of bottles of aphrodisiac pills: "This time the quality has made a qualitative leap. You can raise the price appropriately or even drastically."
"These can only be used to cope with emergencies at most. They can't even fill a few orders from major clients. All these precious spirit stones are going to fly away like this." Although Si Hao wasn't particularly fond of spirit stones, he still felt it was a great pity.
"Actually, the reason why this aphrodisiac pill is so effective is mainly due to its formula. This formula is the easiest to refine, most effective, and has the fewest toxicities and side effects that I have selected, so you understand its value. Next is the issue of medicinal materials. We don't have any mid-grade spiritual herbs on hand, so this batch of pills is all made from top-grade spiritual herbs. Now it depends on the alchemist's skill."
"I wonder how much this pill formula costs?" Si Hao's gaze was incredibly sharp; he immediately grasped the crux of the matter.
Ye Xiruo shook her head and uttered two words: "Priceless." This pill formula is like a goose that can lay golden eggs indefinitely; only a fool would sell it.
"Second Senior Brother, I can give you the pill formula. You can find someone to refine it and sell the pills. I won't worry about any of that. In the end, I want the profit from the four cities. If you think it's not worth it, I can go and cooperate with Hua Rong. I'm sure Young Master Hua will be very interested in this business."
Ye Xiruo swirled the teacup in her hand, not worried at all.
"Okay, deal." Si Hao nodded in agreement without much hesitation. Although his junior sister took the lion's share, he would still get a considerable amount in the end. Moreover, building good relationships with those people would be beneficial for the Pill King Palace as well.
"Remember to choose trustworthy people. If the Pill King leaks the information, our sources of income will be cut off."
"Don't worry, I understand."
