Chapter 2599

"Is there anything wrong with that?" Baili He said slowly. "We cultivate to seek immortality. When seeking immortality, we naturally wish to keep our youth. You look fine now, don't you?"

"But I want that masculine, vigorous aura," Yu Yinuo protested, unhappy.

"Talking to me is useless. I didn't give you the pill," Baili He shot back directly.

Yu Yinuo’s eyes lit up upon hearing this. "Right! I can go ask Senior Sister Zhu."

"Then let's go together," Baili He agreed after a brief pause.

"(⊙o⊙)…" Yu Yinuo looked at Baili He. "Senior Brother, why do you want to see Senior Sister Zhu?"

"Aren't you going? I’m just joining the fun and to express my thanks," Baili she said, looking at Yu Yinuo. "She saved you, so she is a benefactor to our Sword Sect. I naturally want to meet her."

Yu Yinuo felt a strange sensation hearing this, though he couldn't quite explain it. "Fine, it’s good to meet her."

Yu Yinuo, Baili She, and Wen Jianjue walked out of the guest room into the courtyard. They saw the warm scene of Zhu Yanyi’s family of three.

On a large blanket, Mianmian was learning to crawl. Zhu Yanyi was peeling an apple nearby, while Yan Aohan was taking care of the child.

Such a feeling was absolutely nonexistent in the cultivation world. Couples in the cultivation world rarely displayed such domestic harmony.

"Senior Sister Zhu," Yu Yinuo spoke first.

Zhu Yanyi turned to look at her. "Didn't you say you were cultivating? Why are you out?"

"My Senior Brother wants to thank you," Yu Yinuo pointed at Baili He. "This is my Senior Brother, Baili He."

Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly to Baili She.

Baili She observed Zhu Yanyi. She could not see her cultivation level.

As the eldest senior brother of the Sword Sect, her cultivation had long entered the Nascent Soul stage. Yet, even with such power, she could not perceive Zhu Yanyi’s level, nor Yan Aohan’s. She knew immediately that this couple was extraordinary.

"Sect Elder Baili He of the Sword Sect thanks Immortal Zhu for your generous help," Baili He said seriously.

Zhu Yanyi smiled. "No need for formalities. I am a doctor, so I helped. If I weren’t a doctor, I couldn’t have saved Yu Yinuo either."

Yu Yinuo hurriedly said, "Senior Sister Zhu, do you have any pills that can make my skin slightly darker? It’s too white now. I feel like a girl."

Zhu Yanyi looked at Yu Yinuo. "You were injured by the Yin Demon. When I healed you, there were impurities in your body. To ensure you recovered quickly, I gave you a Grade Nine Marrow-Cleansing Pill. It’s my improved version, so it cleansed you inside and out. Your body has no impurities left, which is why you are so white. It’s unlikely you can turn dark again."

Zhu Yanyi paused, then added, "Of course, unless you become a demonic cultivator and practice demonic arts. Then your physique would turn black."

"Never mind, I’ll stay white," Yu Yinuo said. Although he regretted not being able to turn black, he had no intention of becoming a demonic cultivator, so he wouldn’t practice demonic arts.

Baili He asked from the side, "Immortal Zhu, is the Marrow-Cleansing Pill you mentioned the legendary one?"

Zhu Yanyi smiled. "I don’t know if it’s the legendary one, but the effect is good. However, one can only take one pill. More won’t help. Though it’s nice as a candy bean occasionally."

"That’s a Grade Nine Pill," Yu Yinuo said.

"I know," Zhu Yanyi said calmly. "I refined it. How could I not know its grade? But even if it’s Grade Nine, so what? The pills I refine are always Grade Nine."

Zhu Yanyi said lightly, "Of course, before I became a Grade Nine Alchemist, I couldn’t refine Grade Nine pills. But since becoming one, every pill I refine is Grade Nine. Never lower."

Her words were confident, and her aura was proud.

Baili She was shocked inside. Although she knew from Wen Jianjue that Zhu Yanyi was a Grade Nine Alchemist, hearing it from her mouth was the first time. This information struck her hard. Naturally, she was also happy, for knowing a Grade Nine Alchemist was an unexpected blessing.

"Immortal Zhu, do you sell your pills?" Baili He asked.

"You want to buy my pills?" Zhu Yanyi asked directly.

Baili He nodded. "I represent the Sword Sect in wanting to buy your pills. I don’t know about others, but now that I know you have Marrow-Cleansing Pills, I wish to purchase some."

"How many do you want?" Zhu Yanyi looked at Baili She.

Baili He hurriedly said, "Our sect has many disciples. The more, the better."

Zhu Yanyi snorted. "Although I treat Marrow-Cleansing Pills as candy for my daughter, I won’t sell many. I don’t lack money."

Zhu Yanyi looked at Baili She. "I can give your Sword Sect five hundred Marrow-Cleansing Pills, but you must agree to one condition."

"What condition?" Baili He asked.

As an alchemist, one naturally wouldn’t lack money. Baili She knew this. She proposed a trade to avoid too much karmic debt, but she didn’t expect Zhu Yanyi to refuse money and ask for a condition instead.

Baili He naturally needed to know the condition first to decide if the deal could stand.

"You must have heard from your two junior brothers that I have a younger brother," Zhu Yanyi said.

"Indeed," Baili He nodded slightly.

Zhu Yanyi nodded too, then called into the house, "Zhibin, come out for a moment." She then said to Baili She and the three brothers, "Please sit anywhere. Standing makes me tired."

Even though cultivators rarely tire unless in extreme combat, Zhu Yanyi disliked looking up to talk to people.

"Sister," Zhu Zhibin heard his name and hurried out.

Mianmian, nearby, saw Zhu Zhibin and clapped her hands happily, giggling.

Zhu Yanyi looked at Zhu Zhibin and was slightly stunned, nearly laughing out loud.

Zhu Zhibin’s face was covered in white flour.

"What are you doing?" Zhu Yanyi asked curiously.

"Mianmian likes rice paste, so I’m grinding fresh immortal rice flour for her," Zhu Zhibin said. she loved her little niece dearly. If Mianmian wanted the stars, Zhu Zhibin would never think of giving her only the moon.
