Hearing this, Qing Mo did not show any anger. He merely glanced at the man who had spoken before turning his attention back to the two siblings.

Wang Ya then said, "Young Master, Master has never agreed to anything with that so-called Young Master. It's just that Young Master who has been pestering and nagging Master!"

Wang Yang quickly chimed in, "Yes! Ever since that young master met Master once, he's been saying he won't marry anyone but her. Master has already clearly rejected him, but he's still shamelessly persistent!"

Qing Mo nodded, then asked, "What's going on with the Pill Pavilion? How did Yu Rou become an elder?"

The two siblings then explained to Qing Mo that when Liu Yurou took them to find what Qing Mo needed, they accidentally encountered danger!

Fortunately, the Pavilion Master of the Pill Pavilion happened to pass by and rescued Wang Yang and Wang Ya. After expressing her gratitude, Liu Yurou planned to visit Pill Pavilion in the Linhai Continent. Unexpectedly, the person she met was the Pavilion Master of the Pill Pavilion!

After the two discussed their understanding of alchemy, the head of the Pill Pavilion, seeing Liu Yurou's profound understanding of alchemy, decided to invite her to the Pill Pavilion!

Anyway, Liu Yurou thought that the Pill Pavilion had a lot of Spirit Medicine and precious medicines needed for alchemy, so she would save herself the trouble of searching for them. Therefore, Liu Yurou agreed to his request and became an elder of the Pill Pavilion!

After understanding the situation, Qing Mo glanced at Wang Ya and Wang Yang's cultivation levels. The two siblings had both reached the early stage of the Life Wheel Realm, and their foundations were extremely solid!

In addition, their physiques are different from others, so as long as they unleash their full power, it wouldn't be a problem for them to fight against late-stage or even peak-stage Life Wheel Realm. It's just a matter of whether they can win!

Qing Mo nodded with satisfaction, then asked, "Why didn't you two train with Yu Rou? Why did you run off with someone else? Does Yu Rou know about this?"

Upon hearing Qing Mo address Liu Yurou in that way again, the man was about to reprimand her when Qing Mo's single glance turned him to ashes in front of everyone!

Upon witnessing this scene, the others realized that this handsome and dashing man was actually a powerful cultivator with extraordinary abilities. He had turned the disciple of the Pill Pavilion, who was at the peak of the Mortal Shedding Realm, into ashes with just a glance!

However, Wang Ya and Wang Yang didn't think anything of it. If it weren't for the fact that their master had once saved them from the Pill Pavilion Master, he would have killed the young pavilion master who was bothering them!

These two siblings had followed Liu Yurou all the way, and had also killed quite a few people. They were already used to such scenes, after all, their master's cultivation level was ridiculously high!

Upon hearing Qing Mo's question, Wang Ya immediately replied, "This time, Master sent my brother and me out to help the disciples of the Pill Pavilion find a precious medicine!"

Wang Yang chimed in, "Because the precious medicine we found this time was guarded by a demonic beast, and that beast was at the mid-stage of the Life Wheel Realm, among the younger generation in the Pill Pavilion, only my brother and I could handle it, so Master sent us out!"

Upon hearing this, Qing Mo beckoned to the two siblings and laughed, "Judging from your expressions, it seems you've already found the precious medicine you need! Come on, take me to find Yu Rou!"

By the way, let me introduce you two. You might need to help each other out in the future!

Upon hearing Qing Mo's words, the two siblings entered the carriage. Qing Mo introduced the two siblings to Ren Tianye and the others as her head maid's apprentices, and also introduced Ren Tianye and the others as her disciples and grand-disciples!

Since the two siblings and the four little ones were all juniors, they quickly became familiar with each other despite the age difference. After Wang Ya told Liu Yurou about the city of the Pill Pavilion, everyone went there together!

However, to Qing Mo and the others' surprise, the Pill Pavilion where Liu Yurou was located was actually next to Martial City. Although the two cities were thousands of miles apart, for cultivators, it was just a matter of flying for a short while, and it wasn't considered far!

This time, we'll go see our head maid, Liu Yurou, first, and then go to Martial City to settle accounts with the Wei Family. However, the group of people traveling with the two siblings can only obediently follow behind the carriage!

Because they dared not go first, after all, they couldn't figure out Qing Mo's temper. For example, the one before hadn't even had a chance to speak before he died, so none of them dared to try!

Along the way, the two siblings were somewhat envious of Xia Qiyue and the others, because they were able to receive personal guidance from Qing Mo. When the two siblings followed Liu Yurou, they were also curious about what level Qing Mo was at!

As a result, Liu Yurou directly told them that Qing Mo had reached the point of immortality and could transcend the laws, making him an existence that controlled Myriad Dao!

At first, the two siblings didn't quite understand the meaning of Liu Yurou's words, but as they continued to cultivate and learned more, they began to have a little understanding of Qing Mo's current level!

After traveling for some time, the group finally arrived at the Pill Pavilion, the location of Pill City Pavilion!

Because most people in this city know how to refine pills, and the city's administrator is the Pill Pavilion, you could throw a stone here and you might just hit a pill refiner!

As mentioned before, there are only three seventh-grade alchemists in the entire Linhai Continent, and the Pavilion Master of the Pill Pavilion is one of them. Today happens to be the day that Liu Yurou is here to assess sixth-grade alchemists!

Therefore, the largest assessment venue in Pill City was already packed with people watching. After all, the opportunity to see a sixth-grade alchemist refine pills is not very common. So, before Qing Mo and his group arrived, the place was already teeming with people!

"Elder Liu of the Pill Pavilion wants to take the exam to become a sixth-grade pill master. Do you think she can succeed?"

"It's not just Elder Liu who's going to be tested as a sixth-grade alchemist; there are three fifth-grade alchemists taking the test today. But I still think Elder Liu will succeed!"

"What you say is the same as what I think. After all, since Elder Liu came to Pill City, he has made great strides, from a second-grade alchemist to a fifth-grade alchemist, and he has succeeded every time on the first try!"

It seems that after today, she will become a sixth-grade alchemist! Her other two rivals are under immense pressure!

As Qing Mo and the others walked down the street, they heard a variety of voices talking about the place. Since the carriage could not go any further, the group decided to walk!

After entering Pill City, the two siblings led the way. As for the people who had accompanied them before, they had already returned to the Pill Pavilion. However, before they left, Qing Mo warned them not to reveal his identity!

Those people nodded repeatedly and then disappeared into the crowd. When they arrived at the assessment site, since everyone in the Pill Pavilion knew that the two siblings were Liu Yurou's disciples, they were able to quickly find the best vantage point!

Qu Ziyun saw Liu Yurou, dressed in a green dress, sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed in the assessment area. She tugged at Qing Mo's sleeve and asked, "Ancestor, is that also the Ancestor's wife?"

Qing Mo patted Qu Ziyun's head and smiled, "That's right! How is it? Pretty, isn't it?"

The four children nodded repeatedly. Sure enough, the wives chosen by their ancestor were all as beautiful as celestial beings, breathtakingly beautiful like Immortal Maiden in the mortal world. Whether it was Han Qianxue, Mo Wangshu, or Liu Yurou, they were all rare beauties in the world!

Just as everyone was marveling at the pills, Xiao Chenzi, the head of the Pill Pavilion, came up to the high platform and said, "Today's test is on the Spirit Resonance Pill, a sixth-grade pill! Everyone will receive a portion of the medicinal materials!"

The assessment lasts for one hour. Whoever refines the most pills of the highest quality after one hour will pass the assessment and become a sixth-grade alchemist!

Hearing Xiao Chenzi's words, everyone felt their scalps tingle, especially those alchemists below the fifth rank, who felt this was simply hellish!

Although they weren't qualified for the assessment yet, they had heard of the Spirit Resonance Pill. Refining this pill required tens of thousands of medicinal herbs, and there were strict requirements on the timing and amount of each herb to be added!

There can be no deviation whatsoever, otherwise there is a risk of the oven exploding. Moreover, one-third of it is poison, and the poison must be perfectly removed while ensuring that the potency is not lost!

The temperature must be controlled during the process, as each type of medicinal herb requires a different temperature. This is a tremendous test of mental strength. Moreover, this type of pill is the most difficult to refine among sixth-grade pills. Even a seventh-grade alchemist would take about an hour to refine it!

"No way? The test is actually about Spirit Resonance Pill! And it's about both quantity and quality. If I were to take the test, I'd be lucky if I didn't explode!"

"You want to take the test? You should identify all ten thousand-plus medicinal herbs first!"

"I didn't expect the test questions to be so difficult, and the time limit of only one hour is too tight!"

With Xiao Chenzi's command, the sand in the hourglass began to fall slowly. At this moment, Liu Yurou opened her eyes and stood up, then devoted herself wholeheartedly to alchemy!

The assessment area suddenly fell silent, because being disturbed is the worst thing that can happen when alchemists are refining pills. Alchemists need a quiet environment when refining pills, and if anyone disturbs them at this time, even a casual remark could cause a feud between them!

Qing Mo watched as Liu Yurou quickly sorted the medicinal herbs, then took out her alchemy furnace from her storage ring and paired it with her Origin Pill Fire, putting the herbs in one by one. The onlookers also began to learn, afraid of missing even the slightest detail!

However, since Liu Yurou was reborn and returned, coupled with her two divine-level physiques which made her spiritual power extraordinary, and after she had fully integrated the alchemy insights that Qing Mo gave her, refining this kind of pill was a piece of cake for her!

While the other two contestants were still working hard to remove the poison, Liu Yurou kept throwing medicinal herbs into the alchemy furnace, causing the furnace to shake violently!

Just when everyone thought the furnace was about to explode, the shaking stopped after a short while, and then new herbs were added and the shaking resumed. This series of actions left everyone completely baffled!

Even Xiao Chenzi, a seventh-grade alchemist, was very curious. Every time he thought Liu Yurou's alchemy furnace was about to explode, it always managed to stabilize in the end. Moreover, it seemed that Liu Yurou might not even need an hour to refine the pill!

Only half an hour had passed when Liu Yurou's alchemy furnace emitted a fragrant aroma of pills. Everyone was astonished to see this; they had never expected that Liu Yurou could refine the Spirit Resonance Pill in just half an hour!

The fifth-grade alchemists who were also taking the assessment next to Liu Yurou saw that Liu Yurou's speed was ridiculously fast, and that she could add medicinal materials without stopping for a moment without causing the furnace to explode, which made the two of them even more panicked!

After Liu Yurou felt that the Spirit Resonance Pill had been successfully refined, she withdrew the Origin Pill Fire, casually slapped the lid of the pill furnace, and eleven Spirit Resonance Pill floated into Liu Yurou's hand!

"Holy crap! There are eleven pills! I remember that even a seventh-grade alchemist can only Spirit Resonance Pill eight to ten pills at most, right?"

"Elder Liu is truly amazing. Does that mean her alchemy skills surpass those of a seventh-grade alchemist?"

"That's amazing! I want to become Elder Liu's apprentice and learn alchemy from her!"

"Get out of my way! You think you can become Elder Liu's disciple? Countless disciples in the Pill Pavilion want to become her disciples, but she hasn't even given them a second glance!"

Moreover, her only two disciples both possess special physiques, each one a once-in-a-millennium talent, and she was the one who brought them into the Pill Pavilion!

The crowd erupted in astonishment as everyone marveled at how Liu Yurou had managed to refine the Spirit Resonance Pill in such a short time, and how she had produced as many as eleven pills, each one plump and round, exuding a wonderful fragrance!

The other two who witnessed this scene almost lost their Dao hearts, causing their alchemy furnaces to shake violently. Fortunately, both of them had reached the Life Wheel Realm, and they forcibly used their cultivation to suppress the risk of the furnaces exploding!

However, no one noticed any joy on Liu Yurou's face. She looked up at the sky for a while and found that it was still clear and sunny. Then, Liu Yurou shook her head in disappointment!

After using her spiritual power to send the floating pill in her palm to Xiao Chenzi, she planned to go to her seat to rest for a while. However, as soon as she left the assessment area, a young man in fine clothes came to her!

He said, " Yu Rou, you are amazing! Your alchemy skills are incredible. You actually refined the Spirit Resonance Pill in just half an hour!"

I've prepared some of your favorite pastries, let's go try them together! This way, please!

Upon hearing the man's words, Liu Yurou frowned and said in a cool tone, "Young Master Xiao Miao, please address me as Elder Liu from now on, or you can just call me by my full name! Just don't call me Yu Rou. We're not that close, and there's no need for such an ambiguous way of addressing each other!"

Besides, please don't bother me again. I've already made it clear to you about that matter: I have no feelings for you!

After Liu Yurou finished speaking, she walked past Xiao Miao and headed to her seat. The latter, upon hearing Liu Yurou 'Liu Yurou words, was not annoyed and quickly followed behind her!

At this moment, Wang Ya came to Liu Yurou and said, "Master, your disciple is back! I have completed the task you entrusted to me!"

When Liu Yurou saw Wang Ya, her originally aloof face revealed a slight smile. This scene captivated everyone, as they rarely saw Liu Yurou Liu Yurou, and she had only ever smiled at her two little apprentices!

Her smile was like the warm sun in winter; one smile could topple a city, another could topple a nation. Such beauty is hard to find again.

Her smile was so captivating that it made all the beauties of the imperial harem pale in comparison!

Liu Yurou gently stroked Wang Ya's head and said softly, "It's good that you're back! Let me check if you're injured. By the way, where's Xiao Yang? Didn't he come back with you?"

Wang Ya smiled and said, "Brother, you're back too! We ran into the young master on our way back. He also came to Pill City. He was watching you the whole time Master was refining pills."

Upon hearing her little apprentice's words, Liu Yurou's eyes lit up with a strange light. She immediately beamed and said, "Master has also come to Pill City! Where is he? Quickly take me to find him!"

After saying that, Liu Yurou took Wang Ya's hand and went to where Qing Mo and the others were. Behind them, Xiao Miao's face was as black as hell. He immediately clenched his fists and his anger rose from his heart!

He never expected that Liu Yurou, whom he had always tried so hard to please, would rush off to find another man right in front of him, and he even heard Liu Yurou address that man as "master"!

This made the young master of the Pill Pavilion, who was usually highly respected wherever he went, extremely unbalanced. He also wanted to see who made Liu Yurou so happy, and at the same time, he wanted to know why that man made Liu Yurou call him master!
