However, the quality and price of pills are directly proportional. Top-grade pills are very tempting, but I am short of money. In addition, I have many pills in mind, so I can only focus on mid-grade and high-grade spiritual medicines.

The medicines produced by the Pill King Palace should be of decent quality; otherwise, even with the eldest and second eldest brothers present, they would never have patronized the place.

The male cultivators were quite cautious, carefully observing and confirming the pills they wanted to buy before making their purchases. The quantities weren't large; most cultivators were planning to try them out first, and if they confirmed the quality was acceptable, they would continue buying.

Xiu Qiyu and Qing Zhiyi also agreed with this, firstly because this cautious attitude is commendable.

By the afternoon, the Huitian Pavilion had been completely taken over by the male cultivators. The female cultivators stared in disbelief at the group of fierce-looking male cultivators, unable to squeeze in at all. They said that it must be because they were eating in the wrong way that they saw this group of crazy male cultivators.

Indeed, these male cultivators were just as wild as the female cultivators when they got going, readily pulling out spirit stones and saying, "This bottle and this bottle, I'll take them."

"I want that bottle and the rest of it."

The rule that each person could only buy two bottles of pills caused these male cultivators a lot of trouble. Finally, they came up with a solution: they could buy them together! A bottle of pills usually contains several pills. You buy this bottle, I buy that bottle, and then you share some with me, and I share some with you. Wouldn't that solve the problem?

Qingzhiyi and Xiu Qiyu shook their heads at this, remarking on the boundless wisdom of the people. They had actually anticipated this scene. Xiao Yezi's pills were of such high quality, a third more effective than other pills of the same grade, and only slightly more expensive. Any cultivator with a modicum of common sense would know what to do.

Ye Xiruo still underestimated the fighting power of this group of male cultivators. The sales on the second day reached three thousand high-grade spirit stones. You should know that in the afternoon, only a few bottles of the Youth Preservation Pill were sold. The entire Huitian Pavilion was taken over by male cultivators.

The spirit stones accumulated over the two days gave Ye Xiruo the illusion that she had finally become a tycoon, and she was grateful to the lovely cultivators of Luoxia Valley.

"Little Yezi, these are the pills that the disciples requested to be made. The deposit has already been paid."

Ye Xiruo took the list from Qing Zhiyi and looked at it carefully. There were only a few dozen bottles; she could refine them in two days. However, she had to reply that she would have to return to Tiange to pick up the medicine in ten days. There was no other way. After all, who would believe that she could refine all the pills in such a short time?

"Don't overwork yourself, and don't neglect your cultivation, otherwise the Palace Master won't let me off the hook." Xiu Qiyu still remembered every word Jing Li said in the message.

"Don't worry! The alchemists Master sent will arrive soon. We can let them refine pills then, and I'll sell the pills I usually use for practice."

"good."

For three consecutive days, Huitian Pavilion was packed with customers. This forced Xiu Qiyu to post a task in the mission hall, recruiting Golden Core cultivators to maintain order at Huitian Pavilion. The reward was a Huitian Pavilion membership card, granting a 15% discount on future purchases of Huitian Pavilion pills. This bombshell news left many people dizzy; this was too good to be true.

However, this quest was posted by the senior disciple, who spent a hundred high-grade spirit stones to post it, so it couldn't be wrong. Immediately, the people who accepted the quest were practically ready to fight.

Many people have already made appointments at the martial arts arena to have a match. The loser will voluntarily give up the mission. Xiu Qiyu was also caught off guard by this. It seems that Xiao Yezi's pills are very popular.

After various battles and dodging all sorts of open and covert attacks, about fifty people remained. Xiu Qiyu certainly couldn't accept them all, so he came up with a plan: to hold an assessment. Those who could survive for the duration of an incense stick would stay, while the rest would have to accept the assessment, but each person could still receive ten high-grade spirit stones as compensation.

Ten people were divided into groups. Xiu Qiyu suppressed his strength to the Golden Core stage. Three people were eliminated in the first group, five people were eliminated in the second group, and finally twenty-eight people were left.

"You four can form a group and take turns maintaining order each day."

"Yes, Senior Brother."

They were already very excited to receive guidance from their senior brother.

The most popular dish at the last banquet was Ye Xiruo's beggar's chicken, leaving the people of Luoxia Valley helpless. They had clearly put their hearts and souls into preparing the food, but Ye Xiruo's overwhelming dominance left them speechless. Both the preparation and the taste of Ye Xiruo's roasted chicken were impeccable. Ye Xiruo had no idea that a simple beggar's chicken could win over so many people.

Many people became fans of Ye Xiruo after eating Beggar's Chicken, and the popularity of Huitian Pavilion has caused a stir throughout Luoxia Valley.

Of course, the tremendous success of Huitian Pavilion was also stirring up the hearts of some people. Ye Xiruo was an outsider, so why did she get whatever she wanted in Luoxia Valley? Whether it was the sect leader, the Grand Elder, or Xiu Qiyu, they all favored her.

What makes her so special that Xiu Qiyu protects her so closely? Ye Xiruo is rarely seen, and when she does go out, she is always with Xiu Qiyu, leaving no opportunity for anyone who wants to cause trouble.

In stark contrast to the bustling scene at the Rejuvenation Pavilion, the Merit Pavilion was deserted. Normally, it was nearly empty; disciples of the Sunset Valley preferred to spend their spirit stones buying pills elsewhere rather than risk being ripped off at the Merit Pavilion. Now, the Merit Pavilion was practically deserted.

On the first day, the two sixth-grade alchemists were able to hold back, but this was only temporary. Ye Xiruo was just a little girl; how good could her alchemy skills be? The disciples were only there to support her because of Xiu Qiyu and Qing Zhiyi. Once everyone discovered the problems with the pills from Huitian Pavilion, even if Xiu Qiyu and Qing Zhiyi were there, no one would buy them. Those disciples who realized they'd been tricked would have to obediently return to the Merit Pavilion, giving them an opportunity to raise prices and teach those arrogant cultivators a lesson.
