"Just refine the seventh-grade mind-concentrating pill." Wu Shan handed the pill ingredients to the two of them.

"No, I have it." Pei Yun refused with a smile. She didn't want to refine pills for the Yu family.

She had decided to leave as soon as the elixir was refined. Otherwise, if she stayed any longer, she didn't know if she could maintain her last bit of dignity.

"Who is this girl? Why is she competing with Senior Sister Ling in alchemy?"

"You look so young! You can actually refine a seventh-grade pill..."

"Hey! Didn't you hear it just now? This girl is more than 20 years younger than Junior Sister Ling. The most important thing is that she can refine the sixth-grade pill..."

"How is this possible! Even in my Yu Family Villa, only Uncle Li and a few others can refine the sixth-grade pill. She is so young..."

"Maybe he is just bragging on purpose. I don't know who this person is. How dare he brag in my Yu Family Villa!"

The disciples watching began to whisper...

At this time, Yu Zhibei in the front yard also received the news and rushed over to Wu Shan's side. Next to him stood a handsome man, who was Yu Zhibei's third brother Yu Yuanxi.

"Mother, what's going on? I heard from Uncle Yu Li that Lingyu and Miss Pei had an argument..." Yu Zhibei looked at the two people refining the elixir in the center and said in a voice transmission with a frown.

Wu Shan then repeated what had happened. Yu Zhibei never expected that his mother would indulge her apprentice in such inappropriate behavior.

"Mother, this is the way to entertain guests. How do you want Miss Pei to view our Yu family..." Yu Zhibei sighed and shook his head.

While they were talking, Pei Yun had already refined the elixir. He put away the elixir furnace, crossed his arms, and looked leisurely at Ling Yu who was still working hard on refining the elixir.

"So fast! It's already been refined? Impossible!"

"Too fast! Too fast! It's less than half an hour..."

"This little girl is truly an alchemy genius!"

Wu Shan was also shocked by Pei Yun's speed in refining the elixir. To be honest, even she herself could not make the elixir so fast, and she had been observing Pei Yun's process of refining the elixir.

It was obvious that the layman watched the excitement while the expert watched the doorway. As soon as Pei Yun started, she realized that this woman was a veteran who had been refining pills for many years and was very experienced. Moreover, the alchemy skills she displayed were very exquisite.

When Yu Yuanxi heard his mother's praise, he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked straight at Pei Yun with a hint of interest.

Lingyu obviously noticed Pei Yun's amazing speed. She couldn't help but become anxious and her hands moved much faster. However, the more anxious and flustered she was, the more likely she was to make mistakes.

In the end, he failed to perform well and only managed to refine eight lower-grade seventh-grade mind-concentrating pills.

Ling Yu was completely humiliated. She looked at Pei Yun angrily and said in a sarcastic tone, "I heard from Senior Brother Zhibei that Miss Pei can refine the perfect pill. I wonder if she has refined it now?"

In her opinion, even if Pei Yun had a high level of alchemy skills, it was impossible for him to refine a perfect pill every time! In the entire Yu Family Villa, only her master could refine a seventh-grade perfect pill.

Pei Yun calmly handed the pill bottle to Wu Shan, and replied with a smile: "I'm sorry, compared to Miss Ling, my pill refining stability is still slightly better..."

As soon as the words fell, Wu Shan murmured in disbelief: "Wuque Pill! It's really Wuque Pill. Six out of ten pills are Wuque Pills, and the other four are of the seventh-grade top quality..."

She raised her head and stared at Pei Yun with shining eyes. Even she felt inferior to his level of alchemy. She could refine fifth-grade pills, but it was impossible for her to refine a half-perfect pill from a random batch of seventh-grade pills.

This is incredible!

Except for Yu Zhibei who had already seen it, everyone else present was stunned by Pei Yun's alchemy skills!

Genius! Definitely a top-notch genius in the alchemy world!

Lingyu froze in place, as if she had been slapped hard in the face. She stared at Pei Yun in disbelief, as if muttering to herself: "How is this possible! How could you…"

Pei Yun didn't want to pay any more attention to her, so he walked directly to Yu Zhibei, bowed and said, "Mr. Yu, thank you for your invitation. I suddenly remembered that I have something else to deal with, so I won't stay any longer. Please say goodbye to Master Yu for me."

"Ms. Pei, I'm sorry. It was my fault for being disrespectful to the Yu family today. I apologize to you in person..."

Yu Zhibei hurriedly tried to keep her and bowed to apologize to her, "Miss Pei just arrived at my Yu Family Villa, why are you leaving so soon? You saved me and my fourth cousin, you are the benefactor of my Yu Family, and we haven't treated you well yet..."

"I really have something to do and need to leave. Master Yu, there is no need to keep me. As for the matter of Guitou Mountain and Miasma Forest, whether it is you or not, I want to save people. I am following my heart of Tao..."

Pei Yun politely refused his request to stay, feeling really regretful in his heart. If he had known earlier, he would not have come to Yu Family Villa. He should have left immediately after saving the person.

Seeing Pei Yun's firm attitude, everyone in the Yu family could only watch her leave.

In the main courtyard——

"Mom, why do you let Lingyu act so wildly? What kind of host treats guests like this, asking the guests to make elixirs right away? Lingyu's arrogant and domineering behavior is all caused by you!" Yu Zhibei was so angry that he couldn't help but complain.

"I didn't expect it to turn out like this. I was just curious about this little girl's alchemy skills, but I didn't expect... this little girl has such a bad temper..." Wu Shan didn't expect things to turn out this way.

“No matter how bad your temper is, it’s not as bad as your disciple! As for today’s drama, those who know it is Yu Family Villa, and those who don’t know would think it is her Ling Family Villa…” Yu Yuanxi shook his head and sneered.

"Alright!" Manor Master Yu stopped his two sons from talking any further. "Zhibei, ask Yu Li to prepare a gift and go apologize to Miss Pei..."

He turned to Wu Shan again, "Shan'er, have someone send Lingyu back to the Ling family tomorrow. Our Yu family can't afford such a disciple..."

"Husband, ... the Ling family and we are old friends. It would be bad to offend them like this!"

"How many times have the Ling family stabbed our Yu family in the back over the years? They said one thing to our faces and another behind our backs. I have long wanted to break up with them. This time is just the right time..."

On the other side, after leaving Yu Family Villa, Pei Yun went directly to Beiyu City. This city was very close to Shanghe Sect. Along the way, she saw many disciples wearing sect uniforms.

Pei Yun first found an inn to stay in temporarily, and then began to wander around Beiyu City with great interest...

She walked around the shops in the city and came to Lingchuan Restaurant, the most famous restaurant in Beiyu City.

When Pei Yun went in, it had already darkened outside and the seats in the restaurant were almost full.

The waiter led Pei Yun to a corner on the second floor, and bowed respectfully, "Excuse me, young lady. The seats in the restaurant are almost full. I have to inconvenience you to sit here..."

"It's okay." Pei Yun waved his hand and ordered a few signature dishes at random.

All the ingredients in the restaurant contain spiritual energy, so the prices are also expensive. Those who can come in are basically either rich or noble, and the waiter would never dare to offend the customers.

Pei Yun started eating happily. Just when he was halfway through, Yu Li came over with two servants...

"...Manager Yu." Pei Yun sighed secretly and invited him to sit down with a smile, "The dishes in this Lingchuan Restaurant are good, Manager Yu, please try some..."

Yu Li did not refuse, took the chopsticks, tasted two bites of the food, and said with a smile:

"I know the girl's character. Since she has left, she will not return to Yu Family Villa. However, I am a steward and cannot refuse the master's request, so I shamelessly repeat to the girl what the young master asked me to say..."

Pei Yun was quite surprised by Yu Li's words. She felt a little sorry for Yu Li. It was a pity that such a smart and insightful person had to be a manager in the Yu family.

Pei Yun politely declined the gift that Yu Li handed over and said, "...Manager Yu, please help me thank Master Yu and Young Master Yu. But Pei really has something to do and it is not convenient for me to return to Yu Family Villa."

Yu Li sighed deeply, stood up and bowed to Pei Yun with a slightly apologetic look: "It was me who actively invited the young lady to visit my Yu family. I didn't expect this to happen. I apologize to the young lady."

"Manager Yu, don't blame yourself. It has nothing to do with you."

"Since the young lady is unwilling to return to Yu Family Villa, I will take my leave. I hope to see Miss Pei again in the future."

"We are fortunate to meet each other." Pei Yun said goodbye to him.

Not far away, Qin Huai was watching the interaction between Pei Yun and Yu Li, and his heart paused. Because Pei Yun and Yu Li were not communicating through telepathy, and they did not set up any barrier, he naturally heard their conversation, and his curiosity suddenly arose.

"Xiao C."

"My lord, order."

"Send someone to investigate what unexpected events have occurred in the Yu family in recent days?"

"Yes."

Qin Huai looked at Pei Yun with great interest, with a plan in mind...
