The Meng Family was situated on Fuyun Mountain.
The mountain was 1,700 meters high. At dusk, it was wreathed in clouds and mist, making one feel as if they were treading upon the Celestial Palace itself.
Over several centuries, the Meng Family's population had grown to tens of thousands. Only those with a Spiritual Root were qualified to live on the mountain, numbering three to four thousand people. A single narrow path led to the Beast Garden, its entrance flanked by several Cultivators with long sabers at their waists. The guard was strict.
"Young Miss, you only had to send word if you needed something. Why come all this way yourself?"
The guard on duty, whose face normally warned strangers away, now approached with a smile.
"I'm taking Alchemist Chen to have a look inside the Beast Garden."
Meng Qingxuan acknowledged with a hum.
"Alchemist Chen? Chen Che? The one from Jinyun Valley?"
"The genius Pill Master?"
