Yan Xi quickly flipped through the book. However, when she turned to the contents slightly further back, she could only see a hazy mist and could not read anything.

Yan Xi vaguely guessed that she would have to become stronger to access the more advanced chapters.

Yan Xi’s spiritual sense saw the first few pages of medicinal herbs and pill recipes. The words there were gray. She realized that she needed to memorize the medicinal herbs and successfully refine the corresponding medicinal pills before she could light up the words to pass the assessment.

Yan Xi did not continue to flip to the back, and her spiritual sense began to continue to look at the contents in front.

In the first chapter, the brightest page was a pill formula.

The words written on it were simple and unadorned—Nine Revolutions Body Tempering Potion (Level one).

Below were the details on how to make and administer it.

Yan Xi’s eyes narrowed slightly. She could tell at a glance that this was a prescription for cleansing and tempering the body. It was exquisite, even more so than the body-tempering prescription she used to follow when she was the head of the family.

The recipe was for the level one formula. There were eight more levels after that.

However, they would only be revealed after she gained more experience in alchemy.

Yan Xi’s heart was burning. She smiled and touched her chin.

Although the old demon was a little arrogant, he had lived for tens of thousands of years, and he had accumulated several amazing artifacts and books.

Inside the bracelet, Chi Li, who was preparing to enter a meditative state to continue accumulating power, sneezed a few times. A few traces of doubt flashed through his bright golden eyes.

With his physique, how could he sneeze?

Yan Xi read the medical book all night. After memorizing everything in the first chapter with her photographic memory, the fog dissipated, and the second chapter of the book was revealed.

The conditions to open the second chapter were the simplest. The condition to open the next was to refine a few pills. Yan Xi wanted to read the second chapter, but Aunt Wang’s voice rang out from outside the door.

At this moment, her room was still covered in blood. They were left behind when she signed the contract with Chi Li yesterday. Yan Xi was afraid that Aunt Wang would get scared, so she quickly cleaned up the scene, washed up, and went out.

Early in the morning, the first ray of morning light fell.

Yan Chushi ran over to her with a few hot buns in his hands. “Xixi, look what I’ve brought you. Hot meat buns!”

Sure enough, Yan Xi smelled something delicious. Yan Chushi stuffed a bun into each of her hands and went to Yan Xi’s side. He took a bite. “After Grandpa punished Yan Lan and Uncle Sheng yesterday, the servants don’t dare be disrespectful to me anymore. They didn’t dare stop me when I went to the kitchen to get food. I’ve picked a few of the biggest ones.”

Yan Xi shook her head. No matter where she was, people were always opportunistic.

As they were chatting, someone came to deliver their compensation.

The person who had come was Yan Ping, the butler who had threatened to drag Yan Xi to the meeting hall on her knees.

This time, he had brought several servants with him, five times the number of servants from yesterday.

Yan Xi raised an eyebrow. “You brought so many people with you. Are you going to take me to the meeting hall again?”

Yan Ping gave her a fake smile. “Miss Yan Xi, you didn’t do anything wrong. Why would I dare take you to the meeting hall?”

He stretched out the bag. “This is Miss Yan Lan and the master’s monthly allowance for half a year. Miss Yan Xi, you have to keep it carefully. Don’t lose it.”

He emphasized the words “keep it carefully.”

Yan Xi took it and reminded him with a faint smile, “You seem to have forgotten that Uncle Sheng was removed from the position of the head of the family yesterday. You’ve called him by the wrong title.”

Yan Ping and the others looked at Yan Xi as if she was an idiot. Almost no one thought that Yan Sheng would not be reinstated soon.

Yan Sheng was the only one with a slightly high cultivation base in the Yan family, not to mention he had fathered the family’s genius, Yan Lan. With Yan Lan’s identity as a future Spirit Master, even if Yan Sheng was not the strongest, the position of the family head would only fall into his hands.

Yesterday was just a small setback. Even with the old man’s support, Yan Xi and Yan Chushi would not go far.

Yan Xi’s eyes moved, taking in everyone’s thoughts, and she did not say much.

Today, she was going to bring Yan Chushi to purchase the ingredients for refining the body-tempering prescription she had memorized earlier.

Before she left, she took a simple mask hanging over the bed. It was carved out of wood and looked ancient. Because the disfigured half of her face was too conspicuous, the original body was actually very reluctant to go out, and even if she went out, she would wear a mask.

Alas, Yan Lan and the others liked to tease her. As long as she wore a mask, they liked to take it off deliberately to see her panic and cry.

Today was a school holiday. Thus, she and Yan Chushi did not need to go to the academy. The two of them went out to town.

Most of the medicinal ingredients for the prescription were not difficult to buy. Only a few of them were relatively rare. Yan Xi brought Yan Chushi to the largest medicinal shop in Muyun, the Green Lotus Pavilion.

Not long after the two left, Yan Xi knew what Yan Ping meant when he asked them to take good care of the compensation.

Yan Hu is back!

A large group of Yan family disciples gathered at the entrance, all of them looking at the door with excitement.

Today was the day the Yan family’s hunting team returned. Every half a month, the Yan family would send people to the magical beast forest nearby to hunt for magical beasts and materials. At the same time, it was also a form of training for the family’s descendants.

There was a lot of whispering, and from time to time, there were hidden gazes that swept over Yan Xi.

“Have you heard? Yan Hu broke through to the Mystical Learner Realm when he went out to hunt this time! He had even hunted a second-level magical beast—a tusked wild boar, by himself. As expected of him.”

“I heard that Master Sheng had the intention of making him Yan Lan’s Guardian.”

A Spirit Master was physically weak in the early stages of their cultivation. In addition, they did not have the support of a magical beast. Thus, some Spirit Masters would sign a contract with a Mystical Learner during this period. The Mystical Learner would protect the Spirit Master from being approached, and the Spirit Master would assist from the side.

“A sixteen-year-old Mystical Learner, I’m so jealous! I’m only at the sixth level of the Body Tempering Realm right now. I wonder if I can condense Profound Qi before the age of twenty. We’re both from the same family, so why is my talent so poor?”

Someone looked up to the sky and sighed, but his companion poked his shoulder. His finger secretly pointed at Yan Xi and Yan Chushi, telling his friend not to undervalue himself.

“The two direct descendants of the main family over there are even less talented than us. One of them has been cultivating for so many years and is still at the first level, while the other can’t cultivate at all.”

“It’s a good thing that our family has a Spirit Master, otherwise we would have been removed from the four big families. It’s all because of these two pieces of trash,” someone shook his head and complained.

Yan Chushi clenched his fists tightly, and the happy expression he had when he came out disappeared.

Yan Xi, on the other hand, was calm and composed, as if she did not hear them.

The people who were talking saw that Yan Xi did not run away in shame as she used to, and they felt a little embarrassed.

They said it on purpose for her to hear, but she did not react at all.

One of the people who started the conversation could not help but raise his head and say, “Trash will always be trash. You’re still at ease even though you’ve dragged down the entire family. You’re not ashamed at all! What is wrong with you?”
