Auction hall

System: Indeed, host.

Xiao: System, please transfer the data from the alchemy book into my mind and provide me with the Saint level fire.

System: As per your request, host.

[Data is transferred to Xiao's mind, and she receives the Saint level fire. Her cultivation advances to level 5 of the Earth Realm.]

Xiao: System, which level of pills can I now refine?

System: Host, with your current progress, you can refine low-level Saint pills for healing purposes and Xuna pills, which are level-increasing pills.

Pills are categorized into three levels:

Supreme level

^

Middle level

^

Low level

Xiao: Understood.

[Xiao leaves her room to explore her surroundings.]

Xiao: Oh, how beautiful! There is a wide variety of flowers here.

Brother: Xiao, you've finally emerged from your room. I know it was sudden, but it has been five years since Mother's passing. You shouldn't confine yourself to your room.

Grandfather: Indeed, Xiao, you're a good girl.

Xiao: Okay, Brother and Grandpa.

Brother: That's my good girl.

Xiao: Brother, I would like to purchase some herbs for pill refinement. Where can I find them?

Brother: Xiao, do you possess the knowledge of pill refinement?

Xiao: Yes, Brother. I dedicated these past five years to learning the art of pill refinement.

Grandfather: Ho ho, that's my girl. Xiao, where did you learn the craft of pill refinement?

Xiao: Grandpa, every night in my dreams, my ancestors appeared and imparted their knowledge of pill refinement to me.

Grandfather: Excellent. What level of pills are you capable of creating now?

Xiao: Grandpa, I can create low-level Saint healing pills and Xuna pills.

Grandfather: Hahaha, it seems the rest of the populace struggles to secure the services of pill refiners, but we have a Saint-level one in our family. Hahaha...

Brother: Xiao, only two individuals from the royal family and the head of the alchemy association possess the ability to create pills of that level. Are you certain of your skills?

Xiao: Yes, Brother, I am confident in my abilities.

Brother: Very well, then come with me. We will gather the required herbs and you can create a pill.

Xiao: Okay, Brother.

[Xiao visits a shop, purchases the necessary herbs and a furnace, and returns home. She successfully creates a low-level Saint healing pill.]

Grandfather: Hahaha, I knew you could do it. However, you must keep it a secret and not allow others to discover your talent.

Xiao: Understood, Grandpa.

[Xiao continues to refine healing and Xuna pills, selling them anonymously at the auction hall. She also continues her cultivation alongside her pill refinement.]

[After four years, Xiao achieves the Saint Realm at level 8 and becomes capable of creating low-level spiritual pills.]

Xiao: Grandpa, Brother, I have reached the point where I can create low-level spiritual pills.

Butler: Young Miss, you have received an invitation from the Tian Family. They wish to celebrate their Young Master's victory in the scholar's test and have requested your presence.

Xiao: From the Tian Family? Certainly, I will attend.

[Xiao sees this as an opportunity to investigate her mother's killer and accepts the invitation.]

Tian Zang: Hello, Xiao. How have you been?

Xiao: I am doing well. And yourself?

Tian Zang: I am also well.

Tian Kai: Xiao, what level is your cultivation? Mine is level 6 of the Saint Realm, and my sister's cultivation is at level 5 of the Saint Realm.
