“The Yun family and the Cloud Top Heavenly Palace have sent us letters recently, expressing their intention to break off the engagement. I have not agreed yet.” Yan Zhongshan’s eyes were fixed on Yan Xi. There was a trace of anger and pity in his eyes.

To have someone break off the engagement before she was even married was a pity. Yan Xi’s life would not be easy in the future.

This engagement was arranged before the Yun family had risen to power. At that time, the Yun family was just a small family in the Muyun Kingdom, and Yun Yuhan was an illegitimate child that the Yun family did not love. Back then, Yan Wufeng and Yun Yuhan’s father, Yun Zhou, were good friends, so they arranged for this engagement.

Xi’s throat had turned hoarse from Yun Yuhan’s poison. However, who would have thought that the illegitimate child would turn out to be so powerful?

“Xi, if you’re not willing, the family…” Yan Zhongshan was interrupted before he could finish.

“Didn’t you already retire?”

The young girl had a puzzled look on her face.

“What?” Yan Zhongshan furrowed his brows and slapped the table as realization dawned on him. “The Yun family is too much!”

No matter how much they looked down on Yan Xi, the engagement was a matter between the two families.

They were treating the Yan family as pushovers.

Seeing her grandfather’s angry face, Yan Xi said awkwardly, “I broke off the engagement.”

“What?” Yan Zhongshan did not react. Yun Yuhan was handsome and talented, and wasn’t Yan Xi infatuated with him?

“After he accused me of theft without distinguishing between right and wrong on the training grounds, I cut off all ties with him. Why would I want such a scumbag?”

Yan Xi’s words rendered Yan Zhongshan speechless. He held his head. Why did this granddaughter he had not seen for ten years sound so different from the rumors?

However, he also understood Yan Xi’s choice. Back then, her father had been accused of theft, so Yan Xi was very sensitive about the topic.

He carefully searched Yan Xi’s face to make sure she did not look sad. He was afraid that she was pretending, so he coughed lightly and comforted her guiltily, “Such an ungrateful man who can’t tell right from wrong won’t be good even if he marries you. You will definitely find a better man in the future.

Looking at the clumsy Yan Zhongshan comforting her, Yan Xi suddenly wanted to tease this old man who always had a serious face.

She pretended to be serious and nodded. “Grandpa, you’re right. I must find a husband who is more talented, more handsome, and stronger than that scumbag. If I can’t find him, then I’ll never marry. Grandpa, you will have to take care of me then.”

Yan Zhongshan almost spat out the water in his mouth. That was not what he meant.

Yan Hong gloated at the family head’s misfortune. There was no one on the planet more talented and handsome than Yun Yuhan.

It seemed that the family head would have to support Yan Xi for a lifetime.

Yan Zhongshan looked depressed and did not know what to say. Yan Xi was in a good mood. She waved her hand. “Goodbye, Grandpa.”

Yan Zhongshan frowned and wondered where he could find such a man for Yan Xi? Was Yan Wufeng’s bloodline was destined to end?

While Yan Zhongshan was troubled, Yan Xi and Yan Chushi had already gone to the most prosperous street in Muyun.

There were two famous medicinal shops in Muyun. One was the Green Lotus Pavilion, and the other was the Hundred Herbs Tower. An Alchemist’s status was noble. In a remote and small place like Muyun, ordinary people would usually seek help from a doctor and would not need pills.

However, every month, the five great families would purchase large quantities of pills and elixirs for their disciples’ cultivation from the Green Lotus Pavilion and the Hundred Herbs Tower at a high price.

Yan Xi came out this time not only to buy the medicinal herbs for refining the Nine Revolutions Body Tempering Potion but also to understand the market for medicinal pills. After all, she was poor!

“Xixi, the shop on the right is the Green Lotus Pavilion, and the one on the left is the Hundred Herbs Tower. Which one should we go to first? ” Yan Chushi led Yan Xi down the street.

Yan Xi looked over and found that the atmosphere in the two shops was very different.

The Green Lotus Pavilion was as crowded as a market. From time to time, there would be people coming in and out. However, the front door of the Hundred Herbs Tower was completely deserted. Almost everyone who came over had poured into the Green Lotus Pavilion.

“Why are there so many people in the Green Lotus Pavilion today?” Yan Xi was a little curious.

The two medicinal shops had been in Muyun for many years. They had practically divided the entire medicine market in Muyun equally. There had never been a trend where one of them dominated the market.

“Miss Yan Xi? You’re here to buy Body Forging Pill too?” As she spoke, someone stopped in his tracks. He turned around and his eyes immediately lit up with excitement.

Yan Xi looked at the person. It was the Yan family branch disciple she had saved from the tusked boar in the morning—Yan Gu.

He did not wait for Yan Xi to reply and started to talk non-stop. “I knew you would come here. Not only can the Body Forging Pill that the Green Lotus Pavilion just introduced get rid of impurities in one’s body and increase one’s talent, but it’s also said that it can enable people to cultivate! It’s just right for you!”

“Body Forging Pill?” Yan Xi raised an eyebrow.

Yan Gu nodded excitedly. “Yes, that’s right. The Body Forging Pill had only been released two days ago, and everyone was fighting over them like crazy. Moreover, they only sell five a day. I brought all my savings and wanted to see if I could buy one to improve my aptitude.”

He scratched his head.

“Xixi, let’s go and see!” When Yan Chushi heard about the effects of the Body Forging Pill, he tugged at Yan Xi’s sleeve excitedly.

He knew that Xixi’s inability to cultivate had always been a huge burden on her.

Yan Xi touched her chin and nodded. “Let’s go together.”

She also wanted to know what the difference between the Body Forging Pill and the Nine Revolutions Body Tempering Potion was.

The three of them entered the Green Lotus Pavilion together, and as soon as they stepped in, they were engulfed in a crowd of customers.

Everyone was rushing to get their hands on the new pill!

The fat shopkeeper was dressed in a brocade robe and had a smug look on his face. With the Body Forging Pill, the Green Lotus Pavilion would crush the Hundred Herbs Tower sooner or later and become the largest medicine shop in Muyun!

He stroked his mustache and snorted. “The Body Forging Pill is such a precious thing. We’re only showing it to serious buyers!”

His attitude was very arrogant, but no one expressed any dissatisfaction.

For most people, the aptitude for cultivation was destined from birth. To be able to improve their aptitude for cultivation was something that many people could only dream of. They would do anything to get their hands on this pill.

When Yan Xi entered the Green Lotus Pavilion, she did not rush into the crowd like the others. Instead, she went to the shelves of other pills to look at the prices.

Yan Gu also wanted to squeeze in, but after seeing Yan Xi leave with a calm face, he unconsciously followed behind her.

What was Yan Xi doing?

He did not know why, but when he saw Yan Xi’s disdain for the Body Forging Pill, he suddenly felt that the Body Forging Pill did not seem useful anymore.
