“I heard that Steward Qiu had Jasper Peach King here. I want to buy it. Price doesn’t matter,” Mu Yun said.
Qiu Yun said indifferently, “Not for sale.”
Mu Yun frowned and said, “I’m not going to hide it from you, Steward Qiu. This Jasper Peach King is very important to me. So I hope that Steward Qiu will sell it to me.”
“Important? How important? Would Fellow cultivator Mu die without the Jasper Peach King? You look so lively, you shouldn’t die easily, right? So I’m going to save a life with this Jasper Peach King,” Qiu Yun said in a gloomy voice.
Mu Yun asked with some curiosity, ” Steward Qiu, can you tell me who you are going to save by using this Jasper Peach King?”
Qiu Yun smiled and said slowly, “The world is full of people who are stuck in the Foundation Building realm and can’t make an inch of progress. This Jasper Peach King has the effect of increasing the rate of advancement to the Golden Core realm. So if I give this Jasper Peach King to a person whose life expectancy is close to the peak of Foundation Building, it may save someone’s life.”
Xiao Jingting, “…” Qiu Yun, do you want to be beaten up or what? Qiu Yun who was in the early stage of Golden Core saying such things to a late-stage Golden Core was really not afraid of being beaten.
“Steward Qiu, my martial uncle is suffering from Fire Poison, so I hope you can give up on this tree. If a person wants to advance to the Golden Core realm, he might not necessarily need a Jasper Peach King.” A female cultivator from the Spiritual Medicine Sect rushed over, full of earnestness. Then she glanced at Mu Yun eagerly before saying it towards Qiu Yun with great expectation.
“Isn’t it just Fire poison? What’s the big deal? It just a matter of burning all the organs and it will not kill anyone. So why the rush?!” Qiu Yun said indifferently.
Xiao Jingting, “…” Saying it out loud, Qiu Yun is really not afraid of being hated by others!
“Steward Qiu seems to know a lot about Pure Yang Fire Poison!” Mu Yun asked.
Qiu Yun laughed and said, “I was not poisoned by Fire Poison before, so I didn’t know much about it. But once one had been poisoned, and knew what felt like, one can totally know the poison.”
Xiao Jingting, “…”
“Senior Mu, in fact, our Steward Qiu likes to joke. Please don’t take his words to heart,” Xiao Jingting smilingly tried to smooth the situation.
Qiu Yun looked at Xiao Jingting and said, “You shut up.”
Xiao Jingting, “…” This guy, Qiu Yun is really going out of his way. He was kind enough to help him out, but this guy told him to back off.
“Steward Qiu, we sincerely came to ask for medicine, so why should you refuse us so resolutely?” The female cultivator beside Mu Yun said.
Qiu Yun smiled and said, “Because I am happy.”
“You’re unreasonable?!” The female cultivator became a little angry.
Qiu Yun sneered and said, “Fellow cultivator, if you don’t like to talk with me, just get lost!”

Xu Muan looked at Xiao Jingting and said with some surprise, “Why are you back so early?”
Xiao Jingting held his face and said, “I was driven away.”
“Why?!” Xu Muan was puzzled.
Xiao Jingting shook his head and said, “Probably because he thought I was an eyesore.”
Xu Muan, “…”
“According to my estimation, Steward Qiu has a grudge with that girl named Xie Wanran of the Spiritual Medicine Sect as well as Mu Yun.” Xiao Jingting said in a serious manner.
Xu Muan nodded and said, “I’ve inquired about secretive matters.”
Xiao Jingting was full of curiosity, “What?!”
“Spiritual Medicine Sect, as the name implies, has the most powerful ability to cultivate spiritual plants. Spiritual Medicine Sect has countless spirit planters and has many Spirit Nurturers. I heard that the Spiritual Medicine Sect used to have a very powerful Golden Core Spirit Nurturer who helped them cultivate a lot of precious spiritual herbs. This Spirit Nurturer had a grandson named Cheng Yishu, who was a childhood sweetheart of Mu Yun.”
“Later, Xie Wanran entered the sect and was assigned to take care of Mu Yun’s daily life. Some people said that Mu Yuna and Xie Wanran had feelings for each other.
“Cheng Yishu might have become anxious and drugged Mu Yun with aphrodisiacs. But Mu Yun cultivates a special technique, he can’t lose his virginity until he reaches Nascent Soul realm, otherwise his chance of advancing to Nascent Soul would be greatly reduced.”
“Cheng Yishu’s move would ruin Mu Yun’s future for his own selfishness.”
“Mu Yun was a genius disciple of the Spiritual Medicine Sect, so people in the sect protected him in hopes he would reach Nascent Soul realm. After this matter became known, Cheng Yishu was greatly punished. Cheng Yishu’s grandfather also had an incident and his cultivation went wrong. Later there was no news about Cheng Yishu in Spiritual Medicine Sect.”
“You don’t doubt it? ” Xiao Jingting asked.
Xu Muan nodded and said, “It’s very possible! Look, Steward Qiu was suffering from Pure Yang Fire Poison, which means he once had a problem with someone who had Pure Yang body… I heard that back then, Mu Yun resisted the temptation of Cheng Yishu and gave him a slap.”
“There is still more! Steward Qiu is in charge of the Spiritual Medicine Garden and as you said, his ability to cultivate spiritual plants is very powerful. Steward Qiu’s grandfather was a Spirit Nurturer, so if Steward Qiu followed his grandfather’s instructions, his ability of cultivating spiritual plants would be very strong. In fact, back then, Cheng Yishu and Mu Yun were the recognized pair of the Spiritual Medicine Sect.”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “When you say it like this, it’s really very possible…”
“It’s hard for honest officials to determine family matters, so don’t get involved in this,” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Alright!” Originally, he did not want to get involved in this matter, so no matter which side it was, he couldn’t afford to offend anyway!
