The strength of this group of poisonous rhinoceros beasts was not strong, most of them were at the Yuanti level, and only the few leading ones were at the low-level Jindan level. Pei Yun faced the enemy alone with a sword, and after a few rounds, he eliminated their leader. Seeing this, the other poisonous rhinoceros beasts scattered and fled...

After Pei Yun took the demon pill, the group of people who were saved gathered around her and thanked her: "Thank you for saving us, young lady!"

"…This time, my Qin family was able to escape danger safely thanks to the help of this young lady. I wonder where this young lady is from?"

"I, Yu Family Villa, would also like to thank you for your rescue. Are you going to Beiyu City?"

Pei Yun did not answer the probing questions, but asked: "Why are you here?"

"…This is Yu Dong'an, the fourth daughter of the Yu family. This is Qin Huai, the third young master of the Qin family. I am Yu Wei, the manager of Yu Family Villa. Our two families had agreed to go to this miasma forest to collect herbs together. We didn't expect to encounter not only poisonous miasma but also monsters. Thanks to the young lady for helping us…"

Pei Yun nodded and did not ask any more questions. She guessed that this group of people must have picked some precious spiritual herbs and flowers, which triggered the poisonous miasma and attracted monsters.

"This place is filled with poisonous miasma, let's leave first..."

"That's what the girl said."

The Yu and Qin families had already picked the most important dragon scale grass during their trip to the miasma forest, and it was time to return.

Pei Yun followed them out of the miasma forest and headed towards Beiyu City...

"What? Girl, do you know our young master? You are..." Yu Wei was surprised when Pei Yun mentioned the names of Yu Zhibei and Yu Li, but his guard was relaxed a little.

"I met Mr. Yu on the way to Shengdan City..." Pei Yun said as he took out the invitation.

Now the Qin and Yu families were completely relaxed. Yu Dongan's small round face was full of excitement and admiration. He looked at Pei Yun and said:

"I heard from my fourth cousin that he met a peerless genius on the way. Not only was his talent in alchemy stronger than his, but his talent in cultivation was also amazing. He wiped out hundreds of bandits by himself. It turned out to be you, girl!"

"You're too kind, girl."

Qin Huai, who was standing by, was moved when he heard this, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes as he looked at Pei Yun.

Yu Family Villa is located in the southeast corner not far from Beiyu City. This area, including Beiyu City, is under the jurisdiction of Shanghe Sect, which is also one of the major sects in Nanyue Continent. Its strength is not much different from Qingjian Sect encountered in Guitou Mountain before.

The Yu family naturally invited Pei Yun to visit the villa...

Qin Huai looked at Pei Yun and Yu Jia's leaving backs in silence.

"Young Master, what's wrong?" The steward of the Qin family raised his head and asked.

"This Miss Pei looks so young, yet she is already a Jindan cultivator. And did you hear what Dong An said just now? She is also an alchemist who is not inferior to Yu Zhibei..."

"There are always people who are better than you. This Miss Pei has such strength, so she must have an extraordinary background..."

"This is interesting. I wonder if the Yu family will allow this girl to go to the Shanghe Sect's tribute banquet this time..."

"This... this girl is an outsider after all. The Yu family shouldn't be so stupid..."

On the other hand, Yu Zhibei was very surprised by Pei Yun's arrival. When he learned that she had helped Yu Dong'an and others again, he was very grateful and specially hosted a banquet for Pei Yun.

Even the busy Mr. Yu took time out to meet Pei Yun. Before that, he had only heard his son talk about Pei Yun's strength. After meeting him in person, he valued Pei Yun even more.

Pei Yun also learned that Master Yu was not an alchemist, but a powerful cultivator. Yu Zhibei's mother Wu Shan was the alchemist, and a fifth-grade alchemist at that.

The next day, Wu Shan took Pei Yun to visit the villa. The villa was divided into two parts. One was a place for cultivation. In the square, several elders were instructing their disciples...

The other place is the alchemy place. The spacious halls are divided into small compartments, and many disciples are refining alchemy inside...

"Disciple Lingyu greets Master."

The woman who called herself Lingyu bowed respectfully when she saw Wu Shan, then glanced at Pei Yun and said in a domineering tone, "Is this the alchemy genius that Senior Brother Zhibei mentioned? Is this the genius who can refine the perfect pill?"

"Lingyu, don't be rude." Wu Shan shook her head at her.

"Mr. Yu, you are too kind..."

"Ms. Pei, I see that you are very young, but I didn't expect that you could actually refine the perfect pill. I am really curious. How about you show us your skills?"

Pei Yun frowned and looked at her for a few times. Her words sounded honest and straightforward, but the expression on her face revealed her condescending disdain and doubt.

She glanced at Wu Shan and felt a little unhappy when she saw that she did not speak up to stop him but instead indulged her disciple.

The Yu family's way of entertaining guests was so casual and rude that they asked the guests to make elixirs right away.

After all, they were still hesitant about Yu Zhibei's praise for her alchemy skills.

Pei Yun could demonstrate his alchemy skills, but he was unwilling to be forced to make alchemy like this.

But thinking that Yu Zhibei and the others and Yu Manor Master were still hospitable, she didn't want to tear her face, so Pei Yun slightly restrained her smile and asked, "I wonder how old the girl is this year?"

"...Fifty-one years old." Lingyu replied in surprise. She didn't expect Pei Yun to suddenly ask her age.

"...That girl is more than twenty years older than me, and she is Aunt Wu's disciple. I'm sure her alchemy skills must be superb. Instead of me making a fool of myself alone, why don't you join me in alchemy?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone around changed. When they heard this, they understood that Pei Yun was unhappy, and there was sarcasm in his words.

Just let her make the elixir, what do you think of her!

Since the other party made such an unreasonable request, Pei Yun had no need to accommodate others. After all, she didn't volunteer to be a guest at Yu Family Villa.

"What? Miss Ling doesn't want to show off her skills?" Pei Yun responded without any courtesy.

Wu Shan was really in a dilemma. She had really only brought Pei Yun to visit the villa at the beginning. When her apprentice suggested that Pei Yun show off his skills, she was simply curious about Pei Yun's alchemy skills, so she acquiesced to Lingyu's suggestion, which led to Pei Yun's dissatisfaction.

But thinking about it carefully, it is indeed not appropriate. It is not right to ask the guest to refine the elixir as soon as he arrives. Moreover, the arrogant look on his own apprentice's face just now really makes people feel uncomfortable.

She was just trying to ease the situation and smooth things over, but Lingyu couldn't stand the sarcasm on Pei Yun's face, so she responded with a sneer, "Let's do it together. I have been refining pills under Master for many years. Although I am not as good as Senior Brother Zhibei, I am still more than enough compared to others."

"Thank you for your advice! What kind of elixir is that girl going to refine? The sixth-grade Qingxin Pill... or the sixth-grade Zhenling Pill?" Pei Yun asked with a smile, his hands behind his back.

As soon as she said this, the other party was speechless again, and the people around her stared at her in disbelief. They couldn't believe that Pei Yun, who was so young, could actually refine a sixth-grade pill!

"What? So you don't know how to refine the sixth-grade pill? Fine! Then refine the seventh-grade pill. The guest should follow the host's wishes. I can't always suppress you, don't you think? Miss Ling."

Lingyu glared at Pei Yun fiercely and stamped her feet in anger. After being ridiculed by Pei Yun, she didn't want to maintain her face anymore and directly broke up with Pei Yun.

The two came to the center of the alchemy hall. The other disciples who were originally refining pills in the compartments gathered around. Some of them were from the Yu family, and some were disciples recruited from outside. They were very familiar with Lingyu, but it was the first time they saw Pei Yun, and they had no idea who she was...
