Going against the will of heaven, summoning strange beasts, abandoning her daughter, she is addicted

"What is this?" The passerby opened the bottle, puzzled. When he saw what was inside, he was stunned.

This, this, this! !

A divine-grade, perfectly high-quality elixir!

Oh My God?!

An ordinary person like him couldn't possibly afford a divine-level pill even with a single day's work, let alone one of such perfect quality.

Did he just give up his beauty so easily?

The passerby felt like he was dreaming.

Then it occurred to me: "Wait a minute! If the beauty can produce divine-grade, perfect-quality pills so easily, why would she need to find the strongest alchemist on the Beast Taming Continent?"

Could it be...

He got it!

The beauty is also a god-level alchemist, and she comes from another continent, so she probably wants to duel Elder Li! Let's see who is the stronger god-level alchemist!

The clone gave the pills and headed straight for the Beast Taming City, unaware that passersby would overthink things.

Like Qingyong City, Beast Taming City is a first-class city.

The clones arrived in a few instantaneous teleports.

"Hello, I'm looking for the city lord." The clone went directly to the city lord's mansion and took out Xiaoyue's token.

The guard knew the token all too well: "Please wait a moment, allow me to inform you."

The guards treated the clone very well.

After quickly reporting the news, he came to fetch his clone, accompanied by a solemn-looking middle-aged man: "Miss, the city lord requests your presence."

The middle-aged man's aura was restrained, and his clone estimated that his cultivation level should be around the ninth level of the God rank.

He must be a confidant of the city lord.

"Sister, it really is you!" When the clone arrived, it also saw an unexpected person.

It's Xiaoyue.

Upon seeing the clone, Xiaoyue's eyes lit up, and she rushed over.

"Didn't you go to the Beast Taming Academy?" the clone asked.

Xiaoyue: "I took a day off today and was being lazy. I didn't expect my sister to come looking for me. Luckily, I didn't go to the academy, or I would have missed seeing her."

After saying that, she grabbed the hem of her clone's clothes and said to the city lord, "Father, my sister is the one I told you about, the one who saved my life."

The city lord had an ordinary appearance, but an exceptionally powerful aura. Initially, when he was unaware of the clone's identity, his expression was quite serious.

Upon hearing Xiaoyue's words, he immediately stepped forward, a smile spreading across his face: "So you are Yue'er's benefactor, please have a seat."

The clone exchanged a few polite words with him, and the three of them took their seats together.

Xiaoyue liked to split herself into two, so she sat down next to her.

"May I ask how to address my benefactor?"

What should I call him?

The clone simply gave the original body's name: "Ruan Yu".

"So you are young friend Ruan. May I address you as such?"

"can."

The city lord agreed, and so did his clone, but Xiaoyue was not happy.

"Father! It's too formal for you to call Sister Yu like that!" she pouted and said unhappily, "Sister Yu is about the same age as me, why don't you adopt her as your goddaughter? I've always wanted a sister."

The clone looked bewildered: "No way."

She doesn't have the habit of recognizing someone as her father.

The city lord narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Yue'er is kind-hearted by nature and has never experienced the harshness of the world. Perhaps this woman named Ruan Yu deliberately approached Yue'er after learning her true identity?

Moreover, he was the lord of the city, possessing immense wealth, power, and privileges.

It's hard to say whether the other party isn't seeking personal gain.

"Why not? Sister Yu, I really like you. Ever since I came back that day, I've been thinking about when I can see you again!"

Doppelganger: "Even if you don't acknowledge my godfather, you can still call me sister."

Hearing what the clone said, the city lord breathed a sigh of relief.

However, I wasn't completely at ease. Who knows if she was playing hard to get?

"Alright..." Seeing that the clone was really unwilling, Xiaoyue didn't insist. "Then Father, let's call her Yu'er! It sounds more intimate."

"Alright, whatever Yue'er says." The city lord said with a smile.

As long as they don't adopt her as a goddaughter, you can call her whatever you want.

The clone could easily see what the city lord was thinking. However, she didn't think anything of it; it was normal to be wary of someone you didn't know well.

"It's getting late, Yu'er, why don't you rest at home? Yue'er, arrange a room for her." The three chatted for a while longer, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, just as the clone was about to ask for someone, the city lord took the lead and left.

As a result, she could only swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

"Sister Yu, why don't you live with me?" Xiao Yue now dared to directly hold Ruan Yu's hand.

"That's not a good idea, I don't have the habit of sleeping with people."

"Alright then, Sister Yu, how about staying in the room next to mine? My courtyard is huge and spacious! And it has the best scenery in the entire City Lord's Mansion! Even Father's courtyard isn't as nice as mine!"

Next, Xiaoyue took her clone to visit the City Lord's Mansion.

He was distracted the whole way, finding it difficult to speak in front of the cunning city lord, but it was much easier to talk to Xiaoyue.

"I've heard that you have a god-level alchemist in your household? His alchemy skills are the best on the Beast Taming Continent?"

“Yes, yes!” Xiaoyue admired Elder Li very much: “Grandpa Li is the most skilled alchemist I have ever seen! Qingyong City holds an alchemy competition every five years, but it’s not an ordinary alchemy competition.”

"It's a competition between god-level alchemists, and Grandpa Li has won first place for several years in a row." Xiaoyue said this with pride, puffing out her chest.

But the next second, her expression turned dejected: "Unfortunately, I have limited talent. Even though Grandpa Li taught me everything he knew, he still couldn't teach me."

"Sister Yu, do you want to see Grandpa Li?" Xiaoyue is a smart girl.

The clone came specifically to see her; it couldn't have been just to check on her.

"Ah."

“Okay, I’ll take you there, but Sister Yu, you must not tell Grandpa Li anything like he’s the best alchemist.”

"why?"

Xiaoyue didn't know the reason either: "Grandpa Li said he wasn't number one, that there was someone whose alchemy skills were superior to his. I, for one, don't believe it. Grandpa Li has been number one in the last few alchemy competitions!"

The clone silently memorized the information, and under Xiaoyue's guidance, the two soon appeared in a relatively dilapidated courtyard.

A winding pebble path leads through the middle of the courtyard to a thatched cottage not far away.

Along the cobblestone path, all sorts of spiritual plants and medicinal herbs are planted, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene.

The clone discovered another energy-gathering array in the courtyard. However, it was very well hidden, and only someone extremely skilled in array formations could detect it.

The Qi Gathering Array is specifically designed to allow medicinal herbs to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

In this way, the maturation speed of the elixir will be much faster than usual.

It's a clever idea.

"Grandpa Li, are you there!" Xiaoyue shouted as she walked to the door.

A clattering sound came from inside, like something had fallen to the ground.

The wooden door opens.

An old man stormed out, his hair and clothes covered in a layer of black ash, as if he had exploded in the furnace: "You little brat! I've told you countless times, don't disturb me while I'm refining medicine! Don't disturb me while I'm refining medicine! But you just wouldn't listen!"
