Bai Moyu gave a signal to Bai Morou. They moved forward and arrived in front of the beautiful woman. Falling to their knees, they said, "Elder Su, thank you for your help!"
Elder Su just glanced at them through the corner of her eye and said indifferently, "Get up! Since you're both Yanran's relative, we do not need to be strangers."
When Bai Moyu saw that Elder Su did not intend to ask what had happened, he knew that it was clear she did not intend to continue interfering with the matter. He gnashed his teeth secretly and decided to risk everything.
"Elder Su, even so, we have to thank you. Yun Chujiu owns a mysterious poison. If you hadn't helped us, my sister might have ended up with a tragic fate."
Just as he expected, Elder Su was now interested. "Mysterious poison?"
Bai Moyu was delighted. "Yes, my sister has been poisoned twice! After she was poisoned, she couldn't move the rest of her body except her head."
"Oh? There's such a poison around?" Elder Su was really interested now. Even the Soul-scattering Pill could only seal a person's spiritual energy. A poison that limited a person's movements could even be compared to an Imprisonment Talisman.
But poison could be concealed as well as an Imprisonment Talisman. Besides, the price of an Imprisonment Talisman was not cheap. If she could get the recipe for this poison, her trip would be really worthwhile! After she got hold of this recipe, there would be no reason for Yun Chujiu to live. In the future, this recipe would be unique to only Su Ruoyun!
"Absolutely! Little Sister Yanran can testify for me." Bai Moyu was very happy. 'Yun Chujiu, you are so dead!'
Su Yanran's eyes flashed a little. Although she did not like how Bai Moyu took advantage of Elder Su for revenge, she saw that Elder Su was very interested in the antidote, so she agreed and said, "Grandaunt, the last time Little Sister Morou was poisoned by Yun Chujiu she had scammed them of five hundred thousand taels of silver to be cured."
Elder Su looked satisfied when she heard this. She had only come to collect some Green-feathered Mugwort that was unique to this place, but she had not expected such a bountiful harvest.
Luo Yin had been observing everyone's words and expressions. When he saw an opportunity, he put on an arrogant air and ordered, "Who is Yun Chujiu? Hurry up and give up the recipe for the poison to Elder Su, or else... Hmph!"
The people of the Yun family knew that things were not good when they heard what Bai Moyu said! When they heard Luo Yin's words, all of them tried to persuade Yun Chujiu into handing over the poison recipe. After all, no matter how important the poison recipe was, it was not as important as their lives!
Yun Chujiu felt as if there was a storm raging in her heart.
'Damn it! Where in the world am I supposed to get this "poison recipe"?!'
Besides, even if she really had a poison recipe, she might be killed after she handed it over. She was also worried that the Yun family would suffer because of it as well. 'Bai Moyu… you should really just drop dead!'
Even if she told them about her technique with sealing acupuncture points truthfully, they would still be killed. 'What should I do…?'
Elder Su noticed that Yun Chujiu had not said a word even up to this moment. She could not help but snort, and a mighty pressure went charging at the Yun family.
The Yun family could not bear with the pressure. They fell limp on the ground. The guards even coughed up blood, since they were already injured to begin with.
Yun Chujiu did not feel anything unusual. Her mind started racing, and she instantly came up with an idea.
Yun Chujiu decided to stand up and said arrogantly, "Elder Su! Since things have progressed to this point, I have no choice but to tell you the truth. My master gave me the poison! If you want the recipe, go and get it from him!"
When Elder Su saw how Yun Chujiu was unaffected by her might, she could not help but be puzzled. "Your master? Who is your master?"
"My master doesn't allow me to tell others his name. He told me that whenever I meet a strong enemy, I am to tell them that he is the elder of the Spiritual Essence Sect! If you don't show him respect, he will naturally uphold justice for me!" Yun Chujiu's expression was filled with arrogance.

'Spiritual Essence Sect?' Elder Su was shocked. Spiritual Essence Sect was one of the main four sections, and Falling Clouds Sect was just a middle grade sect. 'If I offend Spiritual Essence Sect, I will be in trouble!'
Bai Moyu said, "Elder Su, don't listen to Yun Chujiu's lies! How is it possible for a trash like her to gain the favor of an elder from Spiritual Essence Sect? She obviously made up this lie because she didn't want to hand over the poison recipe!"
"Elder Su, my brother is right. Everyone in Ye City knows that Yun Chujiu is a good-for-nothing who can't practice cultivation! How can an elder from Spiritual Essence Sect accept someone like her as his disciple?" Bai Morou agreed through gritted teeth.
Elder Su looked at Yun Chujiu in slight puzzlement. All she saw was Yun Chujiu standing tall and straight, full of pride. She did not look the slightest bit diffident.
Elder Su glanced at the people of the Yun family and saw Yun Chushan's eyes twinkling. She seemed to have something to say. So, Elder Su pointed at Yun Chushan. "You, tell me. Is what Yun Chujiu said true?"
Everyone in the Yun family looked at Yun Chushan. She appeared conflicted for a while before she said with a quivering voice, "Elder Su, my ninth sister has never been able to refine spiritual energy since she was a child, and I have never heard of her having a master before."
The Yun family members glared at Yun Chushan, but she continued speaking with a whimper, "Why are you looking at me like this? I'm telling the truth. Why aren't you blaming Yun Chujiu for being selfish and not handing over the poison recipe? Elder Su is showing her a favor by asking her to hand the poison recipe over. Yun Chujiu, give the poison recipe to Elder Su now! If you want to die, don't drag us into your mess as well!"
While Yun Chushan said this, she snuck a peek at Elder Yun's reaction. 'That idiot Yun Chujiu is going to die regardless of whether she hands over the poison recipe or not. And if things go south, the Yun family might be destroyed as well. I need to side with Elder Su to save my life.'
Elder Su knew just what Yun Chushan was thinking of, and she could not be bothered to acknowledge her. She looked at Yun Chujiu, but the dark-skinned lass did not look afraid even when her lie was exposed. She still looked haughty.
"Hey, lass. Did your master give you a memento?" Elder Su was truly wary of the Spiritual Essence Sect. Even if Yun Chushan had already testified against Yun Chujiu, Elder Su did not dare to do anything to Yun Chujiu rashly.
"Memento? No! My master brings me a lot of delicious food every time. It's gone after I ate them." Yun Chujiu could not help but say in resignation. She even shrugged for good measure.
"Hmph! What nonsense. Which master on earth would only give their disciple food but no memento?! Elder Su, Yun Chujiu is always lying. Don't believe her!" Bai Morou screeched.
Elder Su glared at Bai Morou in displeasure, and Bai Morou felt a pressure on her chest. She immediately shut her mouth. Still, she glared at Yun Chujiu with a poisonous look in her eyes.
"Yun Chujiu, you have neither spiritual energy nor a memento. In this case, no one will believe what you say. How about this? I'll have you come to Falling Clouds Sect as my guest for a while. When your master comes, I can meet him as well."
Elder Su was not willing to take the risk of offending Spiritual Essence Sect, but she was not willing to give up on the poison recipe just yet. So she came up with an idea. 'If Yun Chujiu's so-called master doesn't come and claim her, it won't be too late to kill this girl.'
But Yun Chujiu was not scared at all. Instead, she looked eager. "Alright! I'm tired of Ye City anyway. I might as well hang around at Falling Clouds Sect. Big Brother, please head back and tell Grandpa to ask my master to come and pick me up at Falling Clouds Sect when he shows up."
Yun Chuyi almost burst into tears. 'Young Jiu, although you're really good at lying, you don't have a master!'
