"Hey! Hey! Hey!!! What are you two doing?!" Yun Ting shouted loudly, hurrying over to Yun Yu and Feng Yichen. He saw Yun Yu carrying a pile of pills, while Feng Yichen was furtively using his foot to shove two bottles of pills behind him.

Yun Ting's eyes widened in anger as he roared, "Senior Sister Yun Yu, these pills are for storage! If you want them, go get them from Xiao Shi Liu! Don't touch a single one of these! And you, Junior Brother Yi Chen, don't think I didn't see your little tricks. You actually dared to steal pills!" As he spoke, he quickly squatted down and reached out to try to snatch the pills back from Yun Yu's arms.

Yun Yu hugged the pills tightly to her chest and retorted with dissatisfaction, "Junior brother, there are far more pills than you need! What's wrong with giving me a few bottles? I can always exchange them with you using my precious talismans!" She glared indignantly at her unreasonable junior brother, secretly thinking to herself that this guy was really stingy to the extreme.

And so, the two began arguing back and forth, much like two three-year-olds fighting over a favorite toy. However, their struggle for the pills didn't falter; neither was willing to give in easily. In an instant, the scene became utterly chaotic.

Meanwhile, Feng Yichen was furtively trying to hide two of the bottles of pills. These were rare and priceless pills, extremely valuable! If taken in a life-or-death situation, they might save a life.

Just then, Yun Che quietly leaned close to Feng Yichen's ear and whispered, "Junior Brother Yichen, don't bother. I have even higher-grade pills. You don't need to hide these bottles so secretly. Just leave them and hand them over to the sect."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yichen froze as if struck by a spell, instantly stopping his small movements. Then, he leaned closer to Yun Che and replied in a low voice, "In that case, thank you so much, Senior Brother Yun Che! I truly don't know how to repay your kindness!"

The words had barely left their lips when their eyes met, like two bolts of lightning colliding and sparking. For a moment, the surrounding air seemed to heat up, and an ambiguous, indescribable atmosphere quietly spread.

It's such a pity that Jiang Shiliu didn't get to witness such a blush-inducing and heart-pounding scene. She missed this extremely rare moment of sweetness between the two, which is truly a shame! If she had seen it, it would probably have caused quite a stir in her heart.

Jiang Shiliu didn't return directly to the towering, ethereal Tianyan Peak as usual. Instead, she turned and sped towards the bustling town at the foot of the mountain. Today was a rare moment of leisure for her, allowing her to handle some personal matters. After all, starting tomorrow, she would once again plunge into arduous cultivation, making every second count to improve her strength. Therefore, she needed to arrange these matters properly now to avoid being distracted later.

About half an hour later, Jiang Shiliu finally arrived at her destination – Baiweizhai. This quaint building was located in the most bustling part of the town, teeming with people. Jiang Shiliu's purpose in coming here was not to sample its renowned delicacies, but rather to specifically find someone – Jiang Moqi.

Speaking of Jiang Moqi, he was no ordinary person. He was quick-witted and possessed exceptional business acumen. His Qiankun Pavilion was renowned far and wide, with a broad business scope covering all aspects of daily life, including clothing, food, housing, and transportation, even extending to important sectors like money lending and auction houses. Jiang Shiliu secretly calculated that if she could reach a cooperation agreement with Jiang Moqi and entrust him with the sale of her tens of thousands of meticulously crafted small rice ball magical artifacts, not only would those idle artifacts find a use, but she could also potentially make a fortune, thus realizing her dream of becoming an incredibly wealthy young woman! Thinking of this, Jiang Shiliu was overjoyed and quickened her pace as she entered Baiweizhai.

Although Jiang Shiliu did possess that special VIP card, deep down, she saw it merely as a means to make her travels more convenient. After all, no matter when or where, only the money truly in one's own hands is the foundation of a secure life!

Jiang Shiliu walked to the counter without hesitation and said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper! I wonder if your master has returned? I have come here to discuss something with your master. Could you please tell me where your master is now, so that I can go and find him myself?"

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper's face immediately lit up with a smile, and he hurriedly replied, "Oh! Miss Jiang, to be honest, my master has indeed returned. It's just a pity that he is slightly unwell at the moment and cannot come here in person. But I can give you my master's address, and I hope you will come to him." As he spoke, he took out a slip of paper from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Shiliu.

Jiang Shiliu reached out and took the note, glancing at it casually before pausing slightly in surprise. Huh? The address written on it was located in that vast, boundless primeval forest next to the Xuantian Sword Sect? That was strange indeed. When exactly did someone build a dwelling in such a place? Filled with doubt, Jiang Shiliu put the note away, turned, and walked towards the door, preparing to set off immediately to investigate.

So Jiang Shiliu started flying towards the sect again, but of course, she only started flying after leaving the town.

Along the way, Jiang Shiliu hummed a song with great enthusiasm: "I want money, money, money, money from all directions!"

I don't want to get involved in romance and let it interfere with my earning schedule.

If others treat you like trash, you should treat yourself like a treasure.

No one stays halfway up the mountain forever.

Since entering the Nascent Soul stage, Jiang Shiliu's speed in flying on her sword has become increasingly astonishing. This is not only due to the improvement in her own cultivation, but also inseparable from her diligent swordsmanship training day and night for the past two months. Now, flying on her sword is as natural and effortless as an extension of her limbs, a skill she has completely mastered.

When Jiang Shiliu finally arrived at the vast primeval forest, she keenly sensed that a massive barrier had been meticulously laid out within it. This barrier, like an invisible giant net, tightly enveloped the entire forest, leaving no room for anything else.

Jiang Shiliu had come to discuss an important business deal, so it was inconvenient for her to force her way in. Just as she was racking her brains for a way to enter, she saw a remarkably young-looking man slowly stroll out from the depths of the forest.

The man smiled and said politely, "You must be Miss Jiang, right? Please follow me. The manager of Baiweizhai has already informed me that he has been waiting here for a long time and has come specially to guide you inside."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shiliu's heart stirred slightly, but she remained expressionless. She secretly observed the person before her, sensing a restrained aura and an unfathomable aura surrounding him, making it difficult to gauge his true cultivation level. However, based on her years of cultivation experience and intuition, Jiang Shiliu guessed that this person's cultivation was undoubtedly profound, likely on par with her highly respected senior uncle, Yun Yu, or at least a Nascent Soul stage expert. With such a figure personally guiding her, this journey was unlikely to be simple. Thinking this, Jiang Shiliu nodded slightly, indicating her willingness to follow. And so, the two walked together into the depths of the forest…
