The three men looked at each other, momentarily at a loss for what to do due to this sudden turn of events. Suddenly, someone on the other side shouted at them, "What are you doing?! Come here right now, everyone's over here!"
These words brought the three of them back to their senses instantly, and they headed towards the other two, ignoring Xu Yuehuai.
After everyone left, Xu Yuehuai emerged from the spatial dimension. The people around her were surprised and astonished to see Xu Yuehuai suddenly disappear and then suddenly reappear. "Where did you come from?"
Everyone was confused as to why they had come over, thinking it was Linghu Zhou. At that moment, an explosion erupted in the air, and Xu Yuehuai immediately recognized it as the explosive talisman he had given him.
...
"What's wrong with that kid? How come he has so many talismans on him? I don't remember the Linghu family having any talisman masters!" Xiao Wu's face darkened, feeling that he had been tricked.
"No matter how many talismans he has, they're just things for the lower realm to play with. We must kill Linghu Zhou today!" The leader was getting impatient. He felt that Linghu Zhou was like a tenacious insect, impossible to crush or kill, only adding to his troubles.
The two lingered here for a moment, while Xu Yuehuai had already left. Just as they reached the outside of the encirclement, they saw a convoy approaching. The cars were decorated in a luxurious style, and two men and two women, dressed in revealing clothes and adorned with gold and silver, were guarding the area, all praising the noble status of the people in the sedan chairs.
The sedan chair was covered with gauze on all four sides, giving it a delicate and half-floating appearance. Xu Yuehuai glanced at it twice and then looked away. However, one of the people surrounding the sedan chair stepped forward and blocked Xu Yuehuai's way, saying with a hint of respect in his tone, "My master invites you."
Xu Yuehua frowned, dissatisfied. She followed the guard's gaze to the sedan chair. A gentle breeze blew by, slightly opening the gauze on the side of the sedan chair to reveal the person sitting inside.
It was a man, half-paralyzed on a recliner, his face covered by a veil, dressed in white, with a red mole on his forehead, giving him a somewhat androgynous appearance.
When it comes to men with feminine features, the first image that comes to Xu Yuehuai's mind is Yueying from a few days ago.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuehuai took a closer look at the four people surrounding the sedan chair. This glance amazed her; they were all the four guardians of Yueying!
Now, dressed in flamboyant clothes, he strolls around the streets, while the Four Guardians are all here. The one sitting in the sedan chair is undoubtedly Moon Shadow.
Xu Yuehuai didn't think she had a particularly good relationship with Yueying, but she still went. Wuyue Sect was renowned and powerful in this area, and she would be staying here for two or three days, so there was no reason for them to become enemies.
Xu Yuehuai walked up to the sedan chair and politely inquired, "May I ask what business Young Master Yue has with me?"
"I'm looking to buy some pills from you, and I'm prepared a very generous reward. If you're willing, everything in this spatial ring is yours." Yueying raised an eyebrow, not expecting Xu Yuehuai to recognize her so easily. He reached out from behind the tent and handed over a spatial ring.
Xu Yuehuai examined it suspiciously, and what she saw shocked her. The room was full of rare medicinal herbs and all sorts of other good things.
"So valuable? Does Young Master Yue have something in mind?" What Xu Yuehuai was asking for was not a pill.
Given the generous terms offered by Yueying, how could it be something as simple as just asking for a few pills?
Yueying chuckled softly, "As expected of a clever young lady, why don't you come with me to the teahouse for a cup of tea? This place is really not a good place for conversation."
Yueying looked around and saw that everyone was subtly scrutinizing them. Some people even wanted to hear about their deal, tilting their heads and pretending to be nonchalant. But Xu Yuehuai and Yueying noticed all of these small actions.
Xu Yuehuai had no objection and agreed.
The sedan chair was very large, and Yueying felt uncomfortable sitting alone in it as a man, so he invited Xu Yuehuai to sit with him.
Xu Yuehuai had a hard time explaining why she refused him. Looking at the sedan chair in front of her, she felt like she was being stared at like a monkey. It would be better if it were more enclosed, but it was drafty all around!
Yueying didn't insist. After a while, they arrived at another street, which was quieter. The two of them went into the private room together, while the others waited outside.
Xu Yuehuai said, "I wonder how Young Master Yue knew where I was just now?"
Yueying removed the veil from her face, revealing a stunningly beautiful face that stunned everyone who saw it. "I, Yueying, know a little about fortune telling."
Xu Yuehuai didn't know whether his words were true or false, nor did she care to investigate further. At least for now, Yueying didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards him; she simply wanted to ask for his help.
"I have an elder who suffers from a chronic illness and is in great pain. I would like you to help me refine a Meridian Clearing Pill. During the refining process, please feel free to tell me what you need." The Meridian Clearing Pill helps to clear the meridians and remove impurities attached to them.
The Meridian Clearing Pill isn't particularly difficult to make; any alchemist could basically make it. However, the efficacy of the pill depends on the alchemist's skill level.
There aren't many alchemists on the third floor. Many people only use alchemy as a secondary skill. After all, on this continent, strength speaks for itself. You can be sick without anyone to cure you, but you can't be weak. So there are relatively few alchemists like Dean Guo who are determined to become well-known.
Xu Yuehuai was the first person Yueying had ever encountered who could refine the purity of pills to such a high level.
He had asked other people before, but those he asked were either incompetent or arrogant and unwilling to do anything for Yueying.
The Wuyue Sect is indeed one of the top sects in the North City, but Yueying's presence within the sect is practically on the fringes.
“But I will be setting off back to Qingcheng soon, and there may not be enough time.” Xu Yuehuai usually refines pills quite quickly, but she has never tried this Meridian Opening Pill before. Judging from Yueying’s appearance, it must be a very difficult pill to refine, so she was a little unsure.
Yueying smiled gently, "It's alright, young lady. You just need to do me this favor before you leave. If you succeed, I can send someone to escort you back to Qingcheng, which will be two to three days faster than your normal pace."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai was somewhat moved. Yuan Shui, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up, "You should agree to him quickly, don't hesitate! Listen to me."
"Alright, then in the next few days, would Young Master Yue be able to arrange a quiet space for me so that I can concentrate on refining pills?" Xu Yuehuai agreed.
