Wei Zhong had never been to the Biluo Sect, but its reputation was widespread.

What kind of sect cultivators bully independent cultivators and plunder Qi-refining families by trickery and force...

In short, due to their various bad reputations, ordinary people avoid Biluo Sect cultivators like the plague.

However, on the other hand, the Biluo Sect is a genuine Foundation Establishment sect, and everyone wants to join it.

It's good to have a big tree to lean on; the Biluo Sect is a big tree in the Cangwu Mountains.

It is much larger than the so-called Qingya Gate.

"The Wei family has indeed found an extraordinary background..."

"But the bigger the ship, the bigger the waves; I don't know if it can withstand them."

Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Wei Zhong anymore, since their fourth branch has long since broken away from the Wei family and formed its own lineage.

"Nowadays, I am finding it difficult to refine elixirs, so I must continue to cultivate the art of medicine making."

"With my Qi Refining Level 2 cultivation, I can still use the Qi Nourishing Powder, so there's no need to make any other cultivation medicines."

After flipping through the medicine booklet, Wei Zhong finally chose two medicine powders that were likely to be the most useful.

Qi-regulating powder and hemostatic powder.

As their names suggest, the medicines are used by low-level cultivators to restore their mana and to heal injuries.

"Rejuvenating Grass, Green Leaves..."

The raw materials are not high-grade spiritual items, and the production process is almost the same as that of the Qi Nourishing Pill.

After purchasing the spiritual herbs, Wei Zhongxun and Yang Chupei began to refine them in seclusion.

The production of the new medicine went quite smoothly this time, with only four failures before both were successfully refined.

Two kinds of medicine powders were placed in front of Wei Zhong. The Qi-restoring powder was the same blue color as the Qi-nourishing powder, while the hemostatic powder was white.

"The cost of both is not much different from that of Yangqi San. In fact, both are medicines used in combat, so they can be sold at a slight premium."

After Wei Zhong refined a large batch, he sent a message to the people coming down the mountain to collect it.

This time, a new face appeared before Wei Zhong.

She appeared to be in her thirties, with a rather steady and mature demeanor. She was Qin Shuhan, a shop assistant newly hired by Wei Zhong's father, Wei Cichen.

With a cultivation level of three in Qi Refining, Wei Zhong's level of cultivation was not low, but he had never seen the other party make a move and did not know the other party's strength.

However, to be entrusted with such an important task, one must be quite formidable.

"Has the Wei family been causing any more trouble lately?"

"Young Master, ever since the news of the Wei family woman joining the Biluo Sect spread, no Wei family member has come here again."

"I knew it," Wei Zhong muttered, "How's the shop down the mountain?"

Qin Shuhan smiled:

"It's naturally booming!"

"Thanks to the ample supply of medicinal powder provided by the young master, and the master's skill in reselling spiritual items, my Wei Family General Store has now become one of the four major spiritual stores in Songlinfang."

Of the four major spirit shops, that would be ranked fourth.

"Only weaker than Qingya Spirit Pavilion, Meng Family Spirit Shop, and Biluo Spirit Pavilion..."

Biluo Lingge is a shop controlled by the Biluo Sect.

Wei Zhong visited Songlinfang only a limited number of times and didn't really get to see it much.

Upon inquiring with Qin Shuhan, they learned that the spiritual items inside were similar to those in ordinary shops, only of higher quality and at a higher price.

"Speaking of which, the kinds of spiritual items sold at this Azure Spirit Pavilion are quite similar to those at my Wei Family General Store!"

Wei Zhong rolled his eyes at Qin Shuhan:

"Isn't my Wei Family General Store more like a proper shop?"

Qin Shuhan chuckled:

"Young Master has discerning eyes!"

Wei Zhong didn't say much. Although his father had copied the other party's business model, he had copied it well and in a systematic way. It was a skill to survive in Songlinfang.

"Alright, take the medicine and head down the mountain. Be careful on the way, don't get robbed."

Qin Shuhan packed the medicine powder into her storage bag and cupped her hands in a respectful gesture towards Wei Zhong:

"Don't worry, young master, nothing will go wrong!"

Watching the other person descend the mountain, Wei Zhong closed the door.

The practice of taking the powder and cultivating oneself should continue for a long time before it ends.

"It's still a bit slow! It will take at least three more months to break through to the third level of Qi Refining."

"Three months may seem short, but it's still too slow for me!"

Wei Zhong secluded himself for daily practice, occasionally seeking out Yang Chupei to purchase materials and learn about medicine-making techniques, and his pharmacological knowledge improved rapidly.

One day, while they were discussing the matter, Yang Chupei received a telepathic message, and her expression changed drastically.

"Excuse me, junior brother, I have other important matters to attend to!"

He left in a hurry, and Wei Zhong's doubts were not fully answered.

"How could this be...?"

Outside the courtyard, I occasionally bumped into fellow disciples who were passing by.

The other party was none other than the Taoist priest surnamed Liu who had initially guided Wei Zhong into the sect.

He was Yang Jingting's second disciple, named Liu Changqing.

Noticing the other person's hurried expression, Wei Zhong asked:

"Senior Brother Liu, what happened?"

"Distinguished guests from the Biluo Sect are about to arrive, and Master has instructed us to make preparations. Junior Brother, hurry back to your courtyard and do not be impolite or offend our distinguished guests."

"The Azure Sky Sect?"

Following the other party's instructions, Wei Zhong returned to his hut along the mountain road.

Standing on the courtyard wall and tiptoeing to look outside, one can see Yang Jingting standing side by side with a young and strong cultivator, and in front of them is an old Taoist with a white beard.

"If I remember correctly, my master's junior brother is named Tu Shangtong."

"As for the old man at the very front, he is the true sect master of our sect, a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator, Sect Master Yin Shuangchen."

"The sect leader himself received the guest; this person from the Biluo Sect..."

Just as Wei Zhong was wondering what was going on, a clear bell sound came from the horizon.

Looking up, one can see four fine horses galloping ahead, their hooves resting on auspicious clouds, carrying a pine wood cart frame on their backs.

Cultivators flew to both sides, flanking the carriage and horses, acting as guards.

The carriages and horses passed directly over the Qingya Gate and landed in front of Yang Jingting and the others.

This scene infuriated Yang Chupei and the others who were accompanying them.

But Yang Jingting pressed down with his hand, and everyone suppressed their anger.

The sect leader of Qingya Sect stepped forward, slightly bowing, and greeted them with his hands clasped in greeting.

"The arrival of the young master of the Zhao family of the Biluo Sect is an honor for Qingya!"

A figure emerged from within, carrying a woman in one arm and waving the other casually in front of the Qingya Sect members:

"Haha, Sect Leader Yin, you are too kind. I came here only to make a deal with you, but I cannot accept such a request..."

Despite their words, the other party showed no respect whatsoever in their behavior.

If Yang Jingting and others hadn't given prior instructions, their many trusted disciples would probably have already reacted.

However, Wei Zhong's attention was not on that, but on the woman in the arms of the Zhao family member.

"Wei Fangfei?"

Seemingly sensing the gaze from the shadows, some eyes turned towards them.

Wei Zhong quickly shrank his neck.

"Mid-stage Qi Refining, or late-stage Qi Refining? To have four guards like this while traveling, this young master Zhao is no ordinary person!"

The two groups did not talk for long in front of the mountain gate before entering the inner room.

When a disciple is away from home, he is not allowed to participate in conversations, and may not even know what the other party is saying.

Ning Zhiyuan asked Yang Chupei curiously:

"Senior sister, the Zhao family is so rude..."
