After instinctively averting his gaze and lowering his head, he abruptly reacted. He couldn't help but gaze up at the servant boy once again, only to see the youngster's innocent and straightforward face. He couldn't help but wonder if that was an illusion.2

"Tell me, Yutang, why is your servant boy special?" Another young man asked with a smile, his face was filled with curiosity.

Xie Yutang responded after observing their interested gazes. "He saved my life. In fact, our family just moved into the ancestral home a few days ago, but we were attacked on the road. If he hadn't saved me, I would have been killed." 

Everyone was astonished when they heard this. "Was it this servant boy who rescued you? His cultivation strength doesn't appear to be high!"

"So your family only recently relocated here. It's no surprise I haven't seen you before."

Feng Jiu ate the fruit and listened to their conversation, but she had the impression that someone was watching in the dark, as if examining all the young men present.

She could not help but find it amusing. What was intriguing about these young men? Was it possible that the mistress of the Ruan family used the birthday party to select a potential son-in-law?

"Oh, by the way, have you heard that a seventh-grade medicinal pill is available for exchange at the Treasure Exchange Pavilion in a few days? A young man addressed the gathering. "According to what I've heard, it is a medicinal pill that can help an Immortal Sacred Peak attain the level of Immortal Venerable."

"I've heard about it as well. My father and grandfather were still discussing it the other day! Why? Is your family keeping an eye on this pill as well?" Another young man inquired.

"Hahaha, that's for sure! However, I learned from my father that the medicinal pill is not auctioned, but rather exchanged for treasures of comparable value. Furthermore, there is the most important matter, which is the news on the Immortal Ascension Ladder."

"The Immortal Ascension Ladder? What is that?" A young man asked with confusion.

"How come I've never heard of the Immortal Ascension Ladder?" Another person asked, looking around the crowd, "Have you ever heard of it?"

Everyone looked at each other, some puzzled, some thoughtful. Obviously, some were completely ignorant, while others had some knowledge.

"The medicinal pill that can help an Immortal Sacred Peak attain the rank of Immortal Venerable? It will not be like other pills in that after taking one, the cultivation strength will cease, right?"

Xie Yutang inquired. He lacked the same information as the others. He wouldn't have known what the seventh-grade medicinal pill was, let alone where the Treasure Exchange Pavilion was in the city, if they hadn't spoken.

Another young man replied, "According to the news released by the Treasure Exchange Pavilion appraiser, there would be no effect. It is a pure seventh-grade medication of the highest quality. It is something that can only be discovered by chance."

"Since it is so valuable, it must be difficult to get, and that is none of our business! We cannot employ such an elixir." Xie Yutang stated without enthusiasm.

Everyone smiled in a cryptic way when he heard the words. Furthermore, even if this medicinal pill ended up in the hands of the Xie family, the collateral line would have no say in the matter. Not to mention that only those who know about the Immortal Ascension Ladder could trade. That's what their clan's elders were talking about yesterday! Which family would ultimately win?

The Ruan's Eldest Young Master smiled as he noticed everyone was preoccupied with the seventh-grade medicinal pill. "It's unusual to have everyone gathered here. Why don't we go sparring on the practice field?"
