Feng Ruxue immediately waved her hand, and she would not change her mind. "I only have five pills left, and the ingredients are really hard to find, so I won't be selling them directly to anyone."
Long Qiu and Huo Ye looked down in disappointment; even though they came from a big clan, they still didn't have the ability to buy those pills through the auction.
Moreover, there are only five pills left, so there will definitely be a lot of men and women who want to get their hands on those pills.
Feng Ruxue was amused by their reactions, but she couldn't deny that eternal youth was everyone's wish, and one of the reasons they cultivated was also because they wanted longevity and youth.
'You are already dual cultivating with Ling Yun, right? Why don't you beg him for the pill?' Long Qiu looked at Feng Ruxue in confusion, and she smiled at her. 'Actually, these pills belong to him, and I-'
'Really? The pills are his?' Long Qiu screamed in surprise into Feng Ruxue's mind. 'Then why did he tell me to buy it from you, Big Sis?'
'Sometimes I feel that you are too innocent and naive, Qiu'er. Think about it carefully; you've seen the pill's effect, right?' Long Qiu nodded slightly, then Feng Ruxue continued. 'What do you think would happen if people found out that he was the owner of the pills? His cultivation was still too low, and he was also still inexperienced. That's why I decided to help him sell the pills.'
Long Qiu nodded in agreement. It was true that Ling Yun was still too weak and inexperienced, so it was only natural for him to act very cautiously. Then she glanced at Huo Ye and muttered in her heart. 'I'm sorry, Yeye. I will beg him for the pill, but I can't help you get one.'

Elsewhere
An old man, who was sitting cross-legged, was startled by the appearance of a woman in a black dress, wearing a tengu mask.
Although the woman's face couldn't be seen because it was covered by a mask, he could see her sharp eyes with two red pupils, and she had glossy, waist-length black hair. She was quite tall, and her body was slightly curvaceous. She had a beautiful, slender neck and slender legs. And her black dress accentuates her big breasts and nicely curves.
The woman looked at the old man before asking. "What happened to you, Mo Luo? Why are you hiding in this place?"
"Sigh, I didn't expect that there was such a powerful cultivator in the outside world." Mo Luo replied with a heavy sigh. "Three days ago, I met a middle-aged man, he could attack me from behind without me noticing, and I also couldn't detect his cultivation."
"Oh?" The woman was surprised to hear that. "Don't you recognize his identity?"
Mo Luo shook her head at him. "I don't recognize that man, not even Su Xuan and the others recognize him."
"Hmm?" The woman fell into thought after hearing that. 'Could it be that person came from another realm? But I never detected the presence of anyone else coming from outside this realm.'
"Why did you suddenly come here?" Mo Luo asked.
The woman came back to her senses and answered him. "Mo Tian ordered you to take control of the outside world as soon as possible, and he asked me to protect you."
"Hmm?" Mo Luo was surprised to hear that, and he muttered to himself. 'Looks like that fellow is getting impatient, huh?' "But if we do it hastily, then the guardian won't stay silent anymore, and that person will definitely attack me."
"You don't need to think about the guardian." The woman answered with a shake of her head. "You just need to focus on your task, and I'll handle the guardian."
After thinking for some time, Mo Luo nodded to him. "All right, I will immediately return to the outside world to meet Ling Xiao and the others."
"Good."
Soon, the woman and Mo Luo flew away from that place.

Huo Clan
"Why is your expression like that, Lan'er?" Chen Qing asked as soon as he saw Huo Lan walking into the main hall.
Huo Lan sighed heavily. "Where is my father? I want to discuss something important with him."
"Hmm? Don't you know that your father is out with Brother Ming?" Chen Qing asked back.
Huo Lan was stunned for a moment; she had completely forgotten that her father was away somewhere far away with her father-in-law, and they wouldn't be returning any time soon.
Seeing her daughter's reaction, Chen Qing asked her again. "What exactly happened to you?"
"Nothing." Huo Lan then turned to leave. "Since father is not here, I will return to the Ling Clan again, Mother."
"Why is Lan'er acting weird like that?" Chen Qing wondered to herself as she shook her head.

Cafeteria
"Hey, Brother Yun! Do you really not want to join the event?" Zhang Bing, who was sitting beside Yuan Meng, asked.
Ling Yun shook his head. "Hey, we are cultivators now, so we don't need to take part in such events, and it would be better if we focused on our training and cultivation."
"Brother Yun is right, Zhang Bing." Yuan Meng said. Ever since she became a cultivator two days ago, she is no longer interested in ordinary people's activities, and she is more interested in continuing to cultivate.
Zhang Bing nodded to her. "Sigh, I have a few questions about my technique, but master still hasn't returned here, so I can't continue with my training, and I've only focused on cultivating for the last two days."
Ling Yun then looked at them in turn before teasing them. "So have you two decided to become lovers now? If the two of you are already lovers, I think you can dual cultivate quickly, and your cultivation will increase even faster."
Yuan Meng's face turned red at his words, and smoke seemed to appear from above her head.
On the other hand, Zhang Bing laughed awkwardly at that. He actually also wanted to take Yuan Meng to be his lover soon, but she was still not ready to become one.
"I see." Ling Yun nodded in understanding after he saw their reactions. "Anyway, since you two already have feelings for each other, I'd advise you not to delay it for too long."
"Haha, everything depends on Yuan Meng. He- Ouch!"
Zhang Bing screamed in pain as Yuan Meng pinched his waist hard, and she looked at him while shaking her head.
'These guys!' Ling Yun inwardly laughed seeing them like that.
Suddenly, a woman approached them and asked. "Yun, where is Ye Jing? I want to meet him."
They turned to the woman, and Ling Yun sighed heavily before answering her. "Yue, since Jing'er doesn't have classes today, I think she should be helping my mother at the coffee shop right now. But why do you want to meet her? Do you still want to hurt her more? Do you know how sad she is because of you?"
Hua Yue lowered her head and regretfully replied. "I know that I have hurt Jing so much, but I really want to change and mend our relationship; that's why I want to meet her to apologize to her."
"Hey, Ling Yun! Although she still harbors jealousy towards Ye Jing, her jealousy has faded a lot compared to before, especially since she no longer has a contract with Invidia. Since she really wants to change, I think you can give her a chance to prove herself." Ling Xi spoke after she read Hua Yue's mind, and she suddenly remembered something. "Anyway, I've read Qing Ying's memories before; she hates Tang Zhiyi because of her brother."
'Hmm? What is her brother's relationship with Zhiyi?'
"Qing Ying's brother is too obsessed with Zhiyi; he even stalks her too many times." Ling Yun raised his eyebrows upon hearing that. "Apart from that, he sent her a lot of strange things, and he also frequently terrorized her over the phone. Since she was very disturbed by his actions, she reported him to the police, and he is still in prison until now."
'Tsk, when both men and women are obsessed with something, they often act unreasonably.' Ling Yun muttered in his heart, and he then answered Hua Yue. "Anyway, I will ask Jing'er first; if she wants to see you, then I will tell you, and you can come see her later."
"Okay, I'll be waiting to hear from you." Hua Yue gave Ling Yun a complicated look before she left them.
After she disappeared from their sight, Zhang Bing asked him. "What exactly happened between Yue and Jing?"
"As you already know, Yue is extremely jealous of Jing'er because of me, and she tortured her with a whip and wax." Ling Yun explained with a low sigh.
Zhang Bing and Yuan Meng were stunned to hear that; they didn't expect that Hua Yue could do such a thing to her twin sister.
Ling Yun then said to them. "Forget it, everything has passed. I only hope that Yue truly wants to change, so their relationship can be repaired."
After that, Zhang Bing and Yuan Meng went to their next class, and Ling Yun went to see Wen Qing in her office.
