After losing the competition, losing the battle, and losing his Primordius Universe Furnace, Shi Xuejun finally could not take it anymore and fainted.

Shi Qingwan was also heavily injured on the bed, wanting to do something but feeling powerless.

She was not Hua Ruge's match when things went well, let alone the fact that the reputation of the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace was already rotten to the core.

When the disciples of the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace heard about their princess having fun, most of them felt ashamed.

It was already embarrassing enough for the palace master of the greatest power in the world to lose in a duel, but now he had lost his dignity. This made them, who had always been proud of, how to go out and meet people in the future.

There was also one more rumor about Shi Xuejun killing Baili Shuang. These pill refiners all had Baili Shuang as their goal, and that was the existence of the altar in their hearts.

People started to analyze whether this was a matter or not, and the history of the Heaven Seeking Sect was dug up.

A hundred years ago, this was indeed an extremely weak sect. Moreover, it wasn't a sect that focused on refining pills. Not to mention, there were only a few pill masters, and they didn't even have proper pill techniques.

How did a sect like this leap to become the number one sect in the world in a few years' time?

If no one helped, then that was impossible. This was also what the Continental had always wanted to know, and why did the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace have such a backer.

Now that Hua Ruge said that Shi Xuejun had started his career by killing him, it was very reasonable.

Although there was no evidence, the less there was evidence, the more speculation would arise. This speculation would spread to a very high degree, and in the end, it would not become true.

Unless the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace brought out evidence that they didn't kill anyone, there was no way to suppress the public opinion in the Battle King.

Because of this, all the disciples of the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace had a huge opinion, so they ran away if they could. None of the disciples that were waiting outside dared to go back, forcing Shi Xuejun to order all the disciples to not to leave the sect.

And like this, the disciples could not help but feel that they were treated as prisoners, and their boredom grew even greater.

When Shi Xuejun saw the low morale in the Pill Palace, she was so angry that she couldn't even get up from her bed.

She finally knew why Hua Ruge still dared to speak of this matter without any proof. The killing power caused by public opinion was not the least bit weaker than proof.

The current situation was difficult to reverse.

And it wasn't just the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace disciples, even the last nine Immortal City that she lost her bet but didn't hand over also started to cause a ruckus. The reason was because the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace's reputation was too terrible, causing them to feel humiliated, and so they started to organize themselves to force the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace to fulfill the contract, placing their Immortal City in Hua Ruge's hands.

Shi Xuejun had tried to persuade them before, and had also suppressed them violently, but to no avail, it had instead aroused the anger of the people.

After a few rounds of trouble, the merchants became anxious. Their resistance was even more intense, the merchants stopped trading, the workshops went on strike, and the cultivators left. The nine Immortal City were all lifeless, causing the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace to be unable to collect any more taxes.

Shi Xuejun was extremely anxious in her room every day, and the bad news would continuously come, but she was not in the mood to care about it. She was focused on a letter.

The letter was sent from the Western Sea and the Western Sea Beast King had said that the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace would not hand over their Myriad Spirit Pill for a long time, so he had no choice but to personally come and get it.

Shi Xuejun finally understood the feeling of being on fire. She already regretted offending Hua Ruge now, and if he didn't give her the medicinal ingredients in the Eastern and Southern Wilderness, how could she refine the Myriad Spirit Pill to give to Western Sea Beast King?

If this continued, Western Sea Beast King would definitely fall out. The situation she was facing right now was already very bad, if the Western Sea were to reveal her secret again, then she would be completely doomed.

She gathered all the elders in the hall and asked them to come up with some ideas for her.

As for Hua Ruge, as his opponent, he nurtured his body at home every day and ate delicious food that Tuoba Rui had prepared, living a comfortable life.

Shangguan Li would send people to deliver the news to her everyday, she was constantly monitoring the situation outside and realised that everything was going according to her expectations, there was no need for her to think too much.

However, internal troubles alone would not be enough to cause the complete collapse of the Heaven's Pill Palace. The main reason was still to cause external trouble.

Tuoba Rui had already made his decision long ago. He had fought with the Fire Cloud Sect and the Unparalleled Pavilion earlier on, and after this battle, they had reached an agreement to deal with the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace together.

At the same time, the other powers were also stirred up, all joining the side of the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace. They were only trying to obtain some benefits.2

Guang Xingzi handed over all the matters to Tuoba Rui, and absorbed all the sects that had some power into the camp, as he prepared to destroy the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace in one go.

Although Hua Ruge was free, he did not let his Sky Mansion Academy be free.

Now that the Sky Mansion Academy had been officially put on the market, the recruitment for students who had been suspended previously continued.

When this news was released, the entire world was shaken. Countless people came when they heard the news, and they almost broke the door to Sky Mansion Academy.

With this action of Hua Ruge's, his current Sky Mansion Academy could be said to be renowned across the world. Not only did he have extremely strong cultivation methods and resources, he also had unrivalled pill techniques.

Because the academy wasn't very large, the requirement to enroll new students could only increase one level at a time. Even so, there were still countless people who met the requirements to join the academy.

After Mu Qingyan was reported up to this point, he rubbed his forehead and said: "Those who agree with the conditions are summoned here, we will immediately build a branch here."

"Alright." Mu Qingyan did as he was told.

At this point, the Sky Mansion Academy of nearly all the genius disciples in the world had arrived, which showed how much development there would be in the future.

The rise of Sky Mansion Academy had made countless sects jealous, but they could only do so because they did not have the strength Hua Ruge did.

Tuoba Rui became the leader of the camp, busy with preparing the attacks, spending the majority of his time in the study room. Hua Ruge wanted to help but he forbade her. He only wanted her to recuperate.

Hua Ruge had nothing to do, so he wanted to imitate his wife and mother. Thus, he entered the kitchen to wander around, wanting to cook for Tuoba Rui.

She began to learn from watching the fire and taking the seasonings, and only at the end did she learn to cook, with little success.

When she saw it, it was fine. She really had to do it. She couldn't even look at the oil temperature properly. It would either be sticky or not cooked.

After handing it in for three days, the kitchen maid looked at the black vegetables that Hua Ruge had cooked and said with a bitter face, "Boss, why don't you stop learning?"

She really didn't want to taste it. She had been suffering from psychological trauma these past three days.

Hua Ruge sighed in defeat, and finally realised that he was not made for this.
