Gasps of breath rose from the surrounding area.

Nothing else—

expensive!

This immediately deterred most of the people who were gathered around.

Most of them were monks.

Unable to afford the spirit stones, they naturally stepped aside to watch.

After all, that's a high-grade elixir.

We only see them a few times!

Before Ning Yue, a rare and exceptional Heavenly-level expert, appeared.

Only two people can refine Earth-grade pills, and both of them belong to major sects, so the pills they refine are not leaked out.

But there are no advanced alchemists now.

Therefore, high-grade pills are even rarer than earth-grade pills.

Now, three high-grade pills have suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

This shows just how shocking it is.

Now, the only people surrounding Ningyue are shop owners.

"This..." Some people questioned Ning Yue's pricing, "Isn't it a bit too expensive?"

Ning Yue lowered his eyes and thought for a moment: "...Why don't you all take a look at the quality first?"

She poured out the pills one by one.

The crowd around her watched as she poured out high-grade pills as if she were playing with a ball, and couldn't help but feel sorry for her, their lips twitching with pity.

Be careful!

But the elixir belonged to someone else, so they had no right to say anything, and could only feel the pain in their hearts.

Three pills—

The True Essence Pill.

Rejuvenating Pill.

Bigu Dan (a type of herbal medicine).

Each one is of extremely high quality, rich in spiritual energy, and has a refreshing and pleasant aroma.

Among them, the Rejuvenating Pill is the most popular.

After all, one of them eats and then tells the truth, while the other eats and then doesn't need to eat.

Neither of them is as effective as the Rejuvenating Pill for treating internal and external injuries.

"Fifty thousand for one is really too expensive. Young friend, have you considered lowering the price?"

"Or perhaps we could lower the prices of the Truth-Expelling Pill and the Fasting Pill..."

Although these two pills don't seem very useful, they are high-grade pills after all!

It's fine to keep it as a collectible!

However, Ning Yue highly values ​​her own work: "I won't consider it."

The man retreated sheepishly.

Someone else rushed to the front, shouting, "These are high-grade pills! Young friend! Give them all to me, I want them all!"

Ning Yue looked up—

He was a slightly overweight middle-aged man, holding a folding fan in his hand, his eyes shining as he looked at the three high-grade pills on the ground.

They'll cover everything!

Another collective gasp filled the air, and everyone's gaze kept shifting towards the middle-aged man.

"No wonder they're the Sang family! They're rich!"

Ning Yue caught a whiff of the word "Sang" but before he could think about it, he was distracted.

"What do you say, young friend? I'll take all three! Cash on delivery!"

"Alright!" Ning Yue readily agreed. "Give me the spirit stones, deal."

Another chorus of discontent rose from the surrounding crowd: "How could this be! I haven't made up my mind yet!?"

Ning Yue frowned, his gaze sweeping across the crowd: "Who cares about you?"

"I'll raise the price! How about 60,000? I'll buy that Rejuvenation Pill."

"No way..." Ning Yue waved his hand, packed up the pills, and tossed them to the middle-aged man. "Why didn't you do this earlier? Everyone else has already bought them all."

The middle-aged man was taken aback, seemingly also puzzled that Ning Yue didn't take the opportunity to raise the price.

Ning Yue reached out her hand and looked at him: "Spirit stones?"

"Oh, oh, oh..." He suddenly came to his senses and quickly handed the brocade bag in his hand to Ning Yue.

"Please accept this, young friend."

Ning Yue took the brocade bag, nodded, and turned to leave.

Suddenly stopped—

The middle-aged man smiled and handed Ning Yue a visiting card: "I am the head of a prominent family in the vicinity, named Sang Daohe. Young friend, you are welcome to come and rest here for a while when you have time."

Ning Yue simply nodded, took the invitation, and casually gathered up the blankets from the ground, putting them all into his Qiankun bag.

Thank you, goodbye.

The small figure was hidden in the crowd and did not attract attention.

Ning Yue walked straight ahead, her gaze inadvertently sweeping over what was behind her.

Several figures, who considered themselves to be very well hidden, quietly followed Ning Yue.

She sensed the presence behind her.

There were probably eight or nine people.

What he wanted to do by following behind her was self-evident.

They simply saw that she was a powerful alchemist but lacked combat strength, and wanted to take advantage of her misfortune.

Ning Yue's lips curled slightly as he walked towards a sparsely populated alley.

The people behind him watched Ning Yue's figure disappear quickly and couldn't help but quicken their pace.

—It's gone!

One of them frowned angrily and reached out as if to release some kind of magical artifact.

But suddenly her wrist was grabbed.

……

He turned his head in alarm—

A smiling girl sat atop the sword, her hands barely able to encircle his wrist, yet they carried a fierce strength.

"What do you want me to do if you follow me?"

"Ah—" He felt a sharp pain in his wrist and his body convulsed for a moment.

The skin that Ning Yue's palm touched instantly burst into flames.

The excruciating pain and searing heat left the man with no strength left to resist.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't do anything! I won't follow you anymore!"

Ning Yue raised an eyebrow, releasing his wrist with disdain: "If you had done something, did you think I would have kept you here until now?"

He hurriedly extinguished the flames on his wrist.

Unfortunately, Ning Yue's flames were of such high quality that it took him quite a few magical artifacts to extinguish them.

He crouched shakily on the ground, watching Ning Yue—

An unremarkable face, so unremarkable that it leaves no lasting impression; the kind of face you'd forget after just one glance.

The man frowned in confusion.

Did this girl always look like this? He clearly felt she didn't look like this, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember what she looked like before.

The more she tried to remember, the more her memory of Ning Yue diminished until she could no longer recall what Ning Yue looked like before.

Ning Yue sized up the man on the ground. The man's brows were furrowed, and he would occasionally glance up at Ning Yue.

His eyes held three parts doubt, three parts disbelief, and one part questioning his own memory.

Ning Yue guessed that his magic had worked.

She was not ignorant or incompetent in the realm of consciousness.

I learned a little bit of all sorts of random little spells.

Although Ning Yue is capable in combat, he is not easily injured by anyone.

But to avoid unnecessary trouble, and just in case.

She used a concealment spell.

She made it so that those who had seen her face could not remember what she looked like.

At the time, they might not have noticed anything, and afterwards they would definitely not remember what Ning Yue looked like.

She saw a glint of light flash in the man's eyes again.

They probably realized that Ning Yue had cast some kind of spell on their faces.

This is your only chance!

Advanced Alchemist!

We can't let her escape!

Seeing his expression, Ning Yue clicked her tongue and fidgeted with her fingers with a hint of boredom.

Pinch two fingers together a few times

Sudden--

A towering flame erupted behind Ning Yue, shooting up high in a flash and illuminating the dark alley behind him with a crimson glow.

The intense heat of the fire burned fiercely against my body, filling me with a sense of danger.

The girl sat on the sword, her legs swinging freely in mid-air.

The firelight illuminated half of her face, making it glow red, while the other half remained hidden in darkness.

Her eyes glistened, flickering between light and darkness.

—It's like some kind of dangerous monster from legends that takes people's lives.

The man was immediately stunned by the fiery aura emanating from the impact.

The firelight reflected in his eyes, and his legs involuntarily moved backward.

Her eyes were filled with fear as she glanced at Ning Yue in terror, then let out a scream.

"ah--"

He ran away in a panic, his legs trembling.

Ning Yue: "..."

As for?

It made it seem like she had done something cruel to him.
