"Linggu powder? What is that?"

Upon hearing that all ten or so women from the Medicine Sect had tested positive, Zhao Liu and the others were completely baffled: "This ingredient is not found in the orthodox formula at all."

Many male cultivators were not very clear about this, but one married male cultivator did know.

"Is it the Linggu Powder used by women to nourish their bodies?" he asked curiously. "A thousand years ago, it was a prescription developed by Young Master Jian Lin of the Siyue Sect's Medicine School. Female cultivators who take it will benefit from its yin-yang-tonifying properties, while male cultivators who take it will suffer from stress-induced harm."

Young Master Jianlin?

An Zhengzheng calmly suppressed the fire in her heart.

She glanced at the male cultivator, who looked puzzled, assuming that calling Senior Sister Jian Lin "Young Master" was just a normal thing.

After all, Senior Sister Jian Lin was the last female cultivator in the cultivation world to ascend to immortality. Such an outstanding woman was given the title of "Young Master" as a sign of praise.

Now, every male cultivator on the street is born a young master.

"Zhengzheng, why are you daydreaming?" An Qinghuan had no idea what she was thinking.

An Zhengzheng then calmed down and came to her senses.

“That’s right, it is this.” An Zhengzheng smiled faintly. “The pills and talismans produced by Bai Nu Ge are all processed with Ling Gu powder before the production process is completed.”

"Therefore, female cultivators can regulate their bodies by taking pills from the Hundred Women Pavilion and using talismans from the Hundred Women Pavilion."

This is what An Zhengzheng told the An family back then: to use the Xuan Tian Han Stone to help the girls in the charity hall recuperate.

The An family broke their promise back then; the spirit stones that were supposed to buy Linggu powder were instead turned into a boy's sword and pills.

An Zhengzheng then personally supervised the process.

The male cultivator who had just gotten married didn't believe it: "But Linggu powder is very expensive, even more expensive than the pill itself. Only women from wealthy families can use it."

He had previously considered providing postpartum care for his wife, but had to give up the idea because the price was too high.

The pills from Bai Nu Ge actually contained this ingredient.

"The price is high because the raw materials for Linggu powder are like tea leaves. They are grown with great care and effort, but they cannot improve cultivation or replenish spiritual energy. Nobody wants to waste land and resources to nourish a woman's body."

No one considers the woman's situation.

Just like in the previous life, the menstrual products that women needed were among the most taxed goods, and many poor girls in rural areas could only use bulk, expired ones.

Some are even unaffordable.

An Zhengzheng said frankly, "The Hundred Women Pavilion has contracted an entire mountain, which is used entirely to grow the raw materials for Linggu powder. They have also hired female cultivators to manage the medicinal herbs and prepare the Linggu powder."

That mountain is Senior Sister Wen Yu's Qilin Mountain, which has been taken over by An Zhengzheng.

The Linggu powder grown on one side of the mountain only needs to be added to a small amount to each product, so the cost is actually not high when distributed. It is mainly used to prevent male cultivators from taking shortcuts.

Senior Sister Wen Yu didn't object either. The mountain was hers, and she didn't have to pay rent to Bai Nu Ge. She had already invested in Bai Nu Ge.

An Qinghuan's gaze towards An Zhengzheng was different now.

She knew An Zhengzheng had many ideas, but she never expected him to go to this extent.

"Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the items from Bai Nu Ge. The instructions for use are clearly stated in the Bai Nu Ge magazine. They are for female cultivators only."

An Zhengzheng turned to the side and pointed to the notice on the wall of the Hundred Women's Pavilion: "It is also clearly stated in the store that it is not sold to male cultivators or female cultivators who have not cooperated with it."

“You didn’t follow the instructions, and it was a private transaction. Now that there’s a problem, what right do you have to come to my shop demanding an explanation?”

An Zhengzheng smiled gently, remaining calm and composed throughout. Now, when she looked at Zhao Liu and the other two, her smile held a hint of mockery.

Little brats, how could I possibly give you the chance to take advantage of female cultivators?

Want to buy the things that female cultivators have worked so hard to grow and make at half price to improve the strength of male cultivators?

No way!

"So, the three young masters' symptoms are just a stress reaction to consuming the Spirit Maiden Powder. They'll be fine as long as they don't eat it again."

An Zhengzheng's words were light and casual, but Zhao Liu and the others felt a sense of mockery.

No wonder she was so calm the whole time; she was clearly waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

Long San said unwillingly, "But we still owe it to you because we ate your food..."

"What you're saying is completely unreasonable!"

An Qinghuan is no longer afraid of these hooligans. After learning about Ling Gu Fen, she was able to chime in.

She sneered, "There are still knives for sale outside. Some people buy them to kill monsters, while others use them to kill themselves. Are you going to blame the knife sellers?"

"Yes, the Hundred Women's Pavilion has already said that male cultivators cannot eat it!"

As soon as they heard that the pills contained precious Linggu powder, some female cultivators who happened to be passing by wanted to speak up.

"Miss, do you still have any pills left for today? I'd like to buy three bottles."

"I want to buy one too! My mom needs one too..."

Selling medicine at half price, and adding Ganoderma lucidum powder?

It's foolish not to take advantage of a good deal!

The woman with the daughter just now said, "I'll buy some for my mother and daughter too."

Dong'er had already applied the medicine to Zhao Xin, and the two of them listened to the commotion outside the shop.

Now, when he sees a guest, he immediately stands up to greet them.

"Yes, yes, we have a full range of basic pills in our shop. We don't have many intermediate and advanced pills, but the female cultivators in our shop are already working hard to improve their cultivation. They can start refining them once their cultivation levels are up. Ladies, please wait a little longer..."

Previously, female cultivators lacked teaching and family resources and had to struggle to make a living, causing their cultivation to stagnate and making it difficult for them to produce anything of value.

But the girl is helping everyone now!

Although the Hundred Women Pavilion charges them low prices for raw materials and pays them low wages, they have jobs, a source of income, and access to low-priced cultivation resources and free cultivation techniques...

Given time, his cultivation level will definitely improve.

The misunderstanding was cleared up, and with the new information received, many people went into the shop to look at the items.

Tiger Nine was the kind of person who was strong but rather clumsy. Looking at the dispersing crowd, he knew that they were now at a disadvantage.

He whispered to Zhao Liu and Long San, "What...what do we do?"

Zhao Liu and his group were somewhat annoyed; who would have thought that such a precious item would be inside?

They are completely in the wrong now.

"The Zhou family doesn't even investigate this? They're just making a fool of themselves for us."

They had wanted to buy the pills at half price, but they got sick from taking them. They were planning to go to the Zhou family to ask for compensation, but they ran into the Zhou family who came to deliver gifts.

The young master of the Zhou family told them not to cause trouble, but later, for some reason, they were allowed to come again.

"They're really going to kill me." Long San spat. He had eaten another one today in order to make the visit, and now his limbs were still aching.

"It's not their fault. After all, they never imagined that a pill that had been discounted by half could still contain Spirit Powder, which is even more expensive than the pill itself."

The woman's voice was very pleasant and came from behind them.

"That makes sense, but..."

Zhao Liu instinctively wanted to reply, but stopped abruptly. The three men exchanged glances and simultaneously turned to look at the source of the voice.

An Zhengzheng was looking at them with a smile.

The memory of being whipped with nowhere to escape flashed into his mind. The girl in front of him was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but she was like a smiling tiger.

They dared not utter a sound, laughing themselves to death, not daring to make a single utterance.

"I wonder who insulted my female cultivator who greets guests, and who slapped my maid?"

An Zhengzheng smiled, her tone completely unlike the coldness she had shown when she came to confront him.
