Chapter 1919: Cold & Aloof
“Either the pill contains a mystical ingredient designed to unlock hidden potential, or there’s something off about how it was crafted. Whatever the case may be, consuming such a pill is dangerous for both warriors and cultivators alike.”
As soon as Yun Feifei spoke, the crowd that had been eagerly lining up to buy the pills immediately exchanged suspicious glances.
Now that she mentioned it, they realized it was true. Despite having bought countless pills from the Siam Continent, they had never encountered a grade 5 pill with such potent effects.
Is there something wrong with the Five Elements Spirit Purifying Pill?
“You don’t talk nonsense!” Su Lian, the one who stood to gain the most from the Five Elements Spirit Purifying Pill, couldn’t sit still upon hearing this. His face flushed with anger as he loudly retorted, “I’ve taken an entire bottle of the Five Elements Spirit Purifying Pill, and it’s been several days now. I can guarantee there’s absolutely nothing wrong!”
Yun Feifei let out a mocking laugh, her tone calm yet cutting. “You’re not a pill refiner, so how can you be sure? Can you really judge the quality of a pill? Besides, some side effects of these pills only become apparent after years.”
With that, she turned to Xi Yue. “If you just let me try the pill, I’ll be able to tell if it has any side effects.”
Xi Yue sat leisurely at the stall, casting a glance at her when she spoke. Unfazed, she calmly replied, “I believe I’ve made myself clear. If you want the pills, get in line. If you’re not buying, then leave.”
“You’re just diffident!” Cui sneered, her voice dripping with disdain. “Everyone, look—there’s definitely something wrong with her pills. Otherwise, why wouldn’t she let our young lady take a look? After all, our young lady is a great grandmaster level pill refiner!”
At this, the crowd grew even more suspicious. Those who had been waiting in line slowly began to step back, distancing themselves.Just then, a man’s voice filled with excitement rang out. “Miss Yun, so you’re here! The contract has been drafted. Please take a look. If everything is in order, kindly seal it with your spiritual imprint. That way, I can head back and report to my superiors.”
Soon, a man dressed in the attire of a steward from the Sun Moon Auction House hurried over. With a respectful, almost servile demeanor, he presented Yun Feifei with a spatial storage pouch, inside of which lay a contract jade slip along with a few spirit stones.
Cui shot Xi Yue a smug glance, arrogantly taking the pouch. Meanwhile, Yun Feifei gave a slight nod and said, “Thank you for going out of your way to bring this, Mr. Xie.”
“It’s no trouble at all,” the man replied quickly. “It’s an honor to deliver something to Miss Yun.”
“Miss Yun?” Someone in the crowd suddenly exclaimed, “Are you Miss Yun Feifei, who ranks third in the unparalleled beauty ranking?”
“Is she the Yun Feifei, the genius young woman from the Yun Family who became both a Medicine King and a great grandmaster level pill refiner in her 30s?”
Cui lifted her chin, shooting Xi Yue a mocking glance before sneering, “Do you still think our young lady is just spouting nonsense, falsely accusing him?”Nôv(el)B\\jnn
The crowd stirred once more. Some people gazed at Yun Feifei with admiration, their eyes burning with intense longing.
She was one of the top three beauties of the Siam Continent, a rare sight to behold. Though her face was veiled, she remained a goddess in the hearts of many. Now that they had the chance to see her in person, how could they not feel a surge of excitement?
However, Yun Feifei’s expression had always been cold and aloof from beginning to end, like a flower blooming on a lofty peak—beautiful yet unattainable. And this only made those around her desire her more.
Mr. Xie of the Sun Moon Auction House, puzzled by what was happening, asked a nearby person for an explanation. Upon hearing that everyone was scrambling for the grade 6 pills Xi Yue was selling, he scoffed, “A mere grade 6 pill? Even if it were offered to us at the Sun Moon Auction House, we’d refuse. No matter how impressive the effects might be, as Miss Yun said, who can guarantee there are no side effects?”
