Qi Yufei's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in shock.
He opened his mouth, looking at the steward who had spoken with disbelief, "Are you kidding me?"
Qi Yufei left Rongling Sect to collect debts.
The majority of people in Lingyi Valley are alchemists and healers who dedicate their lives to healing and saving lives, and they hold an extraordinary position in the cultivation world.
Moreover, the current Valley Master of Lingyi Valley, who is also Qi Yufei's father, really likes to invest in opening shops.
It can be said that Lingyi Valley's industries are almost ubiquitous throughout the entire cultivation world.
If we're talking about wealth alone, even the five major sects probably can't compare.
When Qi Yufei was kicked out of Lingyi Valley, his father gave him some of the shops under his name, saying that the shops were managed by people from Lingyi Valley, so he didn't need to worry about them and only needed to collect the debts once a month.
This Spirit Medicine Pavilion is one of them.
Qi Yufei had been staying at Rongling Sect for quite some time this time, and with the monthly collection time approaching, he came to the shop as usual.
He started collecting debts yesterday.
The accounts for the other stores have been mostly collected, and now only two stores remain.
Lingyao Pavilion is the second to last one.
Qi Yufei originally planned to collect the bill at the Spirit Medicine Pavilion and then head straight to the last shop.
After collecting all the payments, he still had other things to do.
But when Qi Yufei arrived at the Spirit Medicine Pavilion, the manager excitedly grabbed him and wouldn't let go, telling him that a big order had come in recently, and the Spirit Medicine Pavilion's income this month had increased several times over.
Qi Yufei was a little curious, so he asked a few questions.
He had no concept of money and was not interested in it.
Anyway, their family has so much wealth that they might not be able to spend it all even in their next life.
Compared to the amount of income from the Spirit Medicine Pavilion that the manager reported to him this month, what intrigued Qi Yufei even more were some pills that the manager handed to him.
This was the first time in his life he had ever seen a pill shaped like a little turtle.
That's so much fun!
What kind of extraordinary person could possibly make the elixir look like this?
Moreover, after listening to the manager's explanation of the effects and purity of these pills, Qi Yufei became even more curious about them.
The person who refined this pill must be even more skilled in alchemy than him.
He absolutely must see that person!
But now, this person in front of him is telling him that the owner of this pill... is actually the master he just recognized?
My master is at the Qi Refining stage!
Seeing the shock on Qi Yufei's face, the other person shook his head and pointed at Rong Zi, answering with certainty.
āIām not kidding you, she is indeed the owner of this pill.ā
I just don't know if she made it.
Qi Yufei looked down at the little turtle pill in his hand, then at Rong Zi standing to the side, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, thinking of Cai Niu's little turtle.
Could it be that this pill... really came from his master's hand?
Hasn't she been keeping herself away from the world and refining elixirs lately?
Could the pills she's refining be... this kind of elixir?
With mixed feelings, Qi Yufei asked Rong Zi a question hesitantly.
"Master, this pill..."
Rong Zi raised an eyebrow and calmly nodded in response, "That's right, I refined it."
"This... how is this possible?" Qi Yufei was incredulous. "How could someone as lowly as Qi Refining possibly refine pills with such high purity and such potent effects?"
Is this a pill that can be refined during the Qi Refining stage?!
If this elixir really was refined by his master.
His master's skill in alchemy can no longer be described as high talent, but rather as ridiculously strong, bordering on freakish, right?
The manager in charge couldn't help but chime in after hearing Qi Yufei's words.
"You know she's only at the Qi Refining stage. What were you thinking when you took a Qi Refining stage girl as your master?"
Could it be that his young master made a mistake while refining the poison pills and his brain was damaged by the poison?
Thinking of this, he suddenly rushed forward and grabbed Qi Yufei's head, nervously examining him.
"Young Valley Master, let me see you quickly, see if there's something wrong with your brain?"
"Don't worry, our Spirit Medicine Valley has plenty of medical practitioners. Even if you become mentally disabled, we will definitely have a way to cure you."
Qi Yufei: "..."
You're the one who's mentally challenged!
Qi Yufei raised his hand and shoved the other person's hand away, saying speechlessly, "My brain is perfectly normal."
The others chimed in, advising, "Young Valley Master, don't hide your illness from the doctor! Your brain..."
Qi Yufei glared at them with a dark expression, then gritted his teeth and interrupted them.
"I told you, my mind is perfectly normal! I haven't become mentally disabled!"
Although I was mentally challenged for a period of time recently.
But he is completely recovered now.
Very clever!
"If you were in the right mind, would you take a Qi Refining stage girl as your master? Stop being stubborn. How about we go back to the Spirit Medicine Valley? The Valley Master will definitely have a solution."
The managers did not believe Qi Yufei's words at all.
Just like a drunk person will never admit that they are drunk.
Someone with intellectual disabilities would certainly not admit that they are intellectually disabled.
Qi Yufei: "..."
As they talked, they made a move to pull Qi Yufei back to Lingyi Valley as soon as possible.
Although his young master is very unruly, to the point that he is hated by everyone and even dogs.
In the Valley of the Spiritual Healer, even dogs would avoid him.
But he is, after all, their valley master's only son. If he were to become mentally disabled, it would be a terrible thing to say.
Qi Yufei's patience was completely exhausted after being inexplicably labeled as mentally challenged.
Just as he was about to push away the hands that were reaching out to him, one of his arms was suddenly grabbed and he was pulled backward forcefully.
Rong Zi pulled Qi Yufei behind her.
Raising her other hand to block several managers, she said with unparalleled boldness.
"Wait!"
The managers looked rather displeased and questioned, "What are you doing?"
Rong Zi pointed to Qi Yufei behind her with her thumb, then tilted her head back and asked the people in front of her a question.
"This is my apprentice. Did you get my permission to take him away?"
"What? Your disciple?" The other party's expression was not good, and he said angrily, "He is the young master of our Spirit Medicine Valley. We are taking him back to the valley to have his head checked."
Rong Zi crossed his arms and said, "My apprentice is perfectly normal; there's no need to look at him."
Qi Yufei looked down at Rong Zi, who was blocking his way and whose head was not even as high as his chest, and nodded vigorously in agreement with her words.
"Mmm, mmm, mmm, I'm so smart, how could I possibly have a problem with my brain?"
Master is still the best.
He will stand up for his apprentice in critical moments.
Upon hearing this, Rong Zi turned and glanced at him.
"It's not that there's anything wrong with your brain, but how smart are you...?"
Rong Zi stroked his chin, his expression full of doubt, and then said, "This may still be open to discussion."
Qi Yufei: "..."
Is this a respectful teacher?
