In a pavilion, several female cultivators from Bifeng Academy gathered together.
âI havenât seen those two pill-selling brats lately! In fact, those brats sold pretty good rejuvenation pills.â A yellow-clothed female cultivator said.
âTheir Antidote Pill was also good.â A red-clothed female cultivator added.
âReturning Qi Pill and Detoxification Pill were also good. But in fact they are nothing, the primary pill those two brats sold is the Strong Yang Pill. I heard that this pill is quite effective.â A blue-clothed female cultivator said, laughing.
âSister Bi Ting, I heard that you have bought Strong Yang Pill before! I want to know how effective it is.â The female cultivator named Xin Lan was full of curiosity.
The girl in green smiled and said,âThe effect? I donât know either. This pill is already so famous, so it must be good. I still have a few bottles left, if sisters want it, I will sell them to you at three hundred taels a bottle.â
âSenior Sister Bi Ting, you are even greedier than Senior Brother Tian! Even when he resell them, he will only sell them at two hundred taels of silver.â The red-clothed female cultivator shook her head helplessly.
Bi Ting laughed and said,âIâm better-looking than Senior Brother Tian Fei. Why does it matter if I sell it at a higher price than him?â
âSister Bi Ting, if you say it like this, beware of Senior Brother Tian Fei coming to beat you up!â
âSenior brother Tian Fei would not be so narrow-minded.â Bi Ting lowered her head. After she bought the pills, she threw them to her younger brother. Unexpectedly, after her younger brother took them, he said they had very good effect, so Bi Ting quickly went back to the stall and bought a bunch of pills, including Strong Yang Pill.
After taking it several times, her younger brother said that his problem seemed to be solved. Bi Ting was so pleased to know it, and she bought more.
Bi Ting secretly rejoiced that she had acted fast enough. Now that these two children were not seen much on the market, all Strong Yang Pills seemed to be sold to Tian Fei at 80 taels a piece, and this greedy guy was selling them at 200 taels a piece.
â¦
When Xiao Qingyan returned to the academy, he heard the rumor that Xiao Jingting was selling Strong Yang Pills in the Academy.
Xiao Qingyan, who had always been proud of himself, was very displeased with Tian Fei, who was always dressed up in fancy clothes, flirting with pretty girls. Knowing that Tian Fei and Xiao Jingting had a close relationship, he couldnât help but go to the fire room to look for Xiao Jingting.
âBig brother, itâs you! When did you return to the academy?â Xiao Jingting saw Xiao Qingyan, drew a breath and casually asked.
Xiao Jingtingâs hair was messy and there were deep dark circles under his eyes. He seemed exhausted, but his eyes were filled with excitement.
Xiao Qingyan looked at Xiao Jingtingâs appearance and said with some suspicion,âWhatâs wrong with you? Youâve used the happy powder again? Younger brother, you have to control yourself, donât destroy your own future.â
Xiao Jingting,ââ¦â Xiao Qingyan, this man never thought highly of him, right?
âNo, Xu Muan just gave birth, so I have been looking after him these days and didnât have a good rest.â Xiao Jingting said.
Xiao Qingyan was a little surprised,âXu Muan gave birth?â
Xiao Jingting nodded, showing off. âYes! He gave birth to a fat boy who especially likes to eat.â
Xiao Qingyan looked at Xiao Jingting with some disgust and said,âHow could you let your wife give birth in the Academy?â
âWhatâs wrong with that?â Xiao Jingting asked.
He thought about it, but he still felt that it was the safest to let Xu Muan give birth in the academy. He spent a large amount of money renting this Earth Fire room, so he had to make the best use of it. By all rights, it should be forbidden to give birth in the academy. However, Xu Muan lived in deep seclusion, so no one noticed. Now that the child was born, he assumed that no one would pursue this matter.
âLetâs not talk about it any longer, I heard you are very close with Tian Fei?â Xiao Qingyan asked.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said,âWell, he is nice, we have business dealings.â
Tian Fei was a generous person. When Xiao Jingting said that he wanted to exchange some of the silver for spiritual jade, Tian Fei agreed without saying a word. Xiao Jingting said that he wanted to exchange the Yuan Nourishing Pills he had obtained from the Marquis for Spiritual Stones, and he also helped to arrange it.
âHow could you mingle with such a person?â Xiao Qingyan asked, feeling resentful towards him since he always failed to meet expectations.
Xiao Jingting looked helplessly at Xiao Qingyan and said,âBig brother, he has money, I need money. Thereâs nothing strange about my dealings with him!â
Xiao Qingyan looked at Xiao Jingting and said coldly,âYouâre simply ridiculous, stay away from this person.â
âElder brother, he is not in your way. Why do you dislike him so much?â Xiao Jingting asked.
Xiao Qingyan said angrily,âIâm doing this for your own good, do you know what he does?â
It was just opening a brothel, so what was the big deal? He didnât believe that his big brother never went to a brothel and slept with a woman there. But he looked down on those who opened brothels. âBig brother, instead of worrying about me, why donât you focus more on improving your cultivation?â Xiao Jingting said.
Xiao Jingting really didnât fear Xiao Qingyan, so when he spoke, he wasnât polite.
When Xiao Qingyan heard Xiao Jingtingâs words, his face turned livid. Finally turning his head, he ran away.
Xiao Jingting looked at Xiao Qingyanâs receding figure and helplessly rolled his eyes. Really! This big brother of his! The moment he appeared, he would start criticizing. Knowing that Xu Muan gave birth, he didnât even care about Xu Muan and the child. Instead, he showed great disdain just because Xu Muan had a child in the academy, and he believed that the birth had  defiled the place. What a jerk!
Xu Muan turned around and looked at Xiao Jingting, asking,âJust now, who came?â
âXiao Qingyan was here.â Xiao Jingting lazily said.
Seeing Xiao Jingtingâs face, Xu Muan knew that these two brothers did not have a nice talk.
âWhat did your brother say?â Xu Muan asked.
âWhat else could he say? He said that I have disgraced him by selling Strong Yang Pills and that I didnât learn well because I mixed together with Tian Fei.â Xiao Jingtingâs mouth curled as he spoke.
Xu Muan shook his head and said,âXiao Qingyan hasnât changed at all.â
Xiao Jingting nodded and said,âYes! The rivers and mountains are easy to change, but humans are difficult to change.â
