Rebirth of Cihang Jingzhai through Fragrance [Complete] - 14

Chapter 133 The Jade Ornament Dispute, Winning a Beauty's Smile

Lu Wanshuang glanced at the two young men standing together, each with their own distinct characteristics. Qin Guan's gentle and refined demeanor, imbued with scholarly spirit, was unforgettable; Ye Tianqi, a young prodigy, brimming with youthful vigor, was truly a rare and extraordinary man. Originally, seeing

Qin Guan about to argue with Ye Tianqi over a jade ornament she didn't care about, she wanted to intervene, but the words caught in her mind, and she stopped herself. She simply stood there, wondering what would happen if Ye Tianqi and Qin Guan were to fight. She didn't know Ye Tianqi's cultivation level, but Lu Wanshuang was naturally very interested in someone praised by her master. That's why she had the idea of having Qin Guan test Ye Tianqi. As for the consequences, Lu Wanshuang naturally didn't think about them. After all, she had received the teachings of the Demonic Sect since childhood, so she wouldn't worry too much or consider what changes a conflict between the two might cause. Lu Wanshuang glanced at Qin Guan with a slightly encouraging look, and Qin Guan immediately became smug. She smiled at me, she smiled… It was the first time Qin Guan had ever seen Lu Wanshuang smile at him like that, and he assumed the beauty approved of his actions. He had initially harbored some doubts, but Lu Wanshuang's encouraging smile dispelled all his rationality. If Lu Wanshuang knew the changes in Qin Guan's mind at that moment, one wonders what she would think.

Meanwhile, Kou and Xu, who had initially admired Qin Guan's scholarly demeanor, were displeased when they saw him so rudely "snatch" the jade they had chosen. They were even more supportive of Ye Tianqi's actions when Ye Tianqi took the jade from Shi Feixuan and confronted Qin Guan. Yang Ning glared at Qin Guan resentfully for arguing with her brother Ye. She had previously thought Qin Guan was a good person, but now his image in her mind was completely ruined. Yang Ning pouted and glared at Qin Guan resentfully, as if he had committed some heinous crime. Qin Guan was completely baffled, wondering to himself when he had offended this young princess.

Yang Yan Yue and Yang Yan Shu, on the other hand, were relatively friendly towards Qin Guan. Although they found it strange that the usually amiable Qin Guan would be so confrontational with Ye Tianqi, they stood there watching the situation unfold, knowing Ye Tianqi wouldn't suffer any loss.

Shi Feixuan wanted to say something, but Ye Tianqi silenced her with a single glance. Yan Yue, needless to say, would support anything Ye Tianqi wanted to do without question.

Actually, Ye Tianqi had ulterior motives. Although he didn't know Qin Guan's identity, judging from the expressions of the two Yang women and Qin Guan himself, he was no ordinary person. An ordinary person might not contend with someone as clearly extraordinary as Qin Guan, but who was Ye Tianqi? Would he be afraid of anyone? To survive in this martial world, one must have their own merits. Seeing that Qin Guan was no ordinary person, Ye Tianqi's lips curled into a wicked smile. "Brother, I'm sorry, it's not that I'm reluctant to part with that jade artifact. It's just that you're unlucky to have met me. And to make matters worse, you also possess exceptional martial arts skills. Aside from a brief exchange with Yelü Shihui, Ye Tianqi hadn't had a proper fight. Finally finding someone to practice with, he naturally wasn't going to let him go. More importantly, there was the stunning beauty Lu Wanshuang beside him. Judging from Qin Guan's dazed expression as he stared at Lu Wanshuang, he was completely captivated by her." Ye Tianqi glanced at Lu Wanshuang's alluring figure, secretly swallowing hard. If he were to let such a beauty slip away so easily, he might as well find a block of tofu and smash his head against it.

Lu Wanshuang seemed to sense Ye Tianqi's gaze. Ye Tianqi's intense gaze made her feel as if she were standing naked before him. The feeling was extremely uncomfortable. Lu Wanshuang thought to herself, she had initially doubted Ye Tianqi's cultivation level, but his lecherous look had already revealed a level of power that had shaken her. She gave Ye Tianqi a charming smile, a smile as elegant as a blooming peony, instantly captivating him. Seduction! What was going on? Were the seduction techniques of the Demonic Sect so worthless? It seemed like any woman could use them. He had just experienced Fu Yan'er's seduction attack that morning, and now Lu Wanshuang's seduction technique had instantly clouded his judgment.

Even Ye Tianqi, a man who had seen countless beauties, was captivated by Lu Wanshuang, let alone Kou and Xu. Fortunately, the two were somewhat fearful, and like Ye Tianqi, they cultivated the Longevity Technique, whose mind-clearing effect was extraordinary, making it the nemesis of seductive arts. So, they only stunned for a moment before regaining their senses. However, when they received Ye Tianqi's wicked smile, they were secretly surprised. Who was this woman? She was about their age, yet her cultivation was in no way inferior to theirs, and she also possessed such powerful seductive arts. It was probably only the Demonic Sect that could match her. Although they weren't bewitched by her seductive arts, they were still filled with lingering fear. If Lu Wanshuang had suddenly attacked while they were distracted, they probably would have lost all nine of their lives. They secretly called her a witch and dared not look at Lu Wanshuang again.

The most affected by the commotion was Qin Guan. Deeply in love with Lu Wanshuang, he was also affected. Although Lu Wanshuang's seductive arts were meant for Ye Tianqi, Qin Guan seemed even more disoriented than the victim. However, precisely because Lu Wanshuang hadn't used her seductive arts on him, Qin Guan quickly regained his composure after Kou and Xu recovered. Nevertheless, this experience greatly worsened Qin Guan's attitude towards Ye Tianqi, glaring at him with hostility. Ye Tianqi noticed the hostility in Qin Guan's eyes and couldn't help but smile wryly. Looking at Lu Wanshuang, who stood there with a smile in her eyes, Ye Tianqi knew that Qin Guan was likely being manipulated by this cunning little vixen.

"Gentlemen, this is our shop's prized possession. If you're interested, just name your price," the shopkeeper said, bringing out a brocade box and placing it on a table as Ye Tianqi and Qin Guan stared at each other. The shopkeeper opened the box and gently lifted a red cloth.

"Ah!..." As the jade artifacts appeared before everyone, they couldn't help but marvel at their exquisite beauty. Ye Tianqi, with his discerning eye, could tell that the jade was carved from a single, complete jade blank. The delicate jade pavilion, the lifelike jade figure, and the small pavilion entirely carved from white jade were all exquisitely crafted. If that were all, it would only be considered a rare item, not a masterpiece. However, there were a few strands of natural emerald green on the jade. To an ordinary jade craftsman, this would be considered a minor flaw in white jade. But in the hands of a master jade carver, these rare "flaws" could be used to their advantage, transforming a piece that could only be a rare item into a masterpiece. This piece of jade, perhaps handled by a renowned artist, had perfectly combined those strands of emerald green with the white jade pavilion, carving them into delicate, slightly exposed emerald green grass on the steps of the hall. Those few strands of emerald green were like the finishing touch on a painting, instantly elevating the jade to a higher level and drawing the attention of all the women in the hall.

"Truly a masterpiece! I didn't expect the shopkeeper to have such a rare gem. I'll buy this perfect jade; I'll offer ten thousand taels of silver," Ye Tianqi declared, offering ten thousand taels right off the bat—a truly extravagant offer.

Qin Guan, having heard Lu Wanshuang's soft gasp upon seeing the jade, responded to Ye Tianqi's words, "I also fancy this piece of jade; I'll offer fifteen thousand taels of silver."

"Twenty thousand taels," Ye Tianqi immediately raised the price.

"Thirty thousand taels," Qin Guan readily agreed.

...

"I'll offer one hundred thousand taels," Ye Tianqi laughed.

The shopkeeper hadn't expected things to escalate to this point. In the end, it seemed the two were just bickering out of spite, constantly raising the price. When Ye Tianqi shouted out twice the price of the jade, and Qin Guan seemed to want to raise it even further, the shopkeeper suddenly said, "Gentlemen, why ruin our harmony over this momentary argument? This gentleman has already shouted out twice the value of the jade. Let me say this: I'll only sell this jade for 40,000 taels of silver. Any more than that is beyond my means."

Ye Tianqi hadn't expected the shopkeeper to say that, but he was impressed that the shopkeeper wasn't a shrewd businessman who would take advantage of his and Qin Guan's impulsive actions to make a quick buck. Hearing the shopkeeper's words, the others also came to their senses. Before they could even react, the price of the jade artifact had skyrocketed to 100,000 taels of silver.

“Husband, I think we should just let it go. Why not give it to this young master? There’s no need to spend so much silver on that jade piece. If Master knew you were being so extravagant, he would be furious.”

“How could he? You see how bullying he is! If others knew, they would think I, Ye Tianqi, am afraid of him! I won’t let go, absolutely not! Mother won’t be angry!”

Shi Feixuan hadn’t expected Ye Tianqi to be so stubborn. Having grown up with Ye Tianqi, Shi Feixuan knew his temper inside and out. Seeing Ye Tianqi acting like a child arguing with Qin Guan, she could only shake her head helplessly. Yang Ning called out from the side, “Brother Ye, Ning’er supports you!”

Seeing Yang Ning getting involved, the four women exchanged smiles, all feeling helpless. The two Yang women were powerless against Yang Ning, and similarly, Shi Feixuan and Yan Yue couldn’t do anything to Ye Tianqi either, only able to smile bitterly.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Lu Wanshuang spoke up, "Both gentlemen are exceptional talents. Since the shopkeeper has stated that the jade artifact is only 40,000 taels, and both gentlemen possess considerable skill, how about a martial arts contest to determine the winner?"

Qin Guan was unaware of Ye Tianqi's true strength, but he wasn't stupid. He sensed Ye Tianqi's abundant aura, seemingly unfathomable. Qin Guan naturally wouldn't have guessed that Ye Tianqi was a master who had reached the Celestial Realm. He assumed Ye Tianqi's mysterious nature was a facade concealed by some martial arts technique. Seeing that Ye Tianqi was at most about his own age, he figured that even if his cultivation was high, he was at most on par with him. Since the beauty had spoken, Qin Guan naturally agreed.

Ye Tianqi smiled inwardly upon hearing Lu Wanshuang's words. Finally, his secret was revealed. Ye Tianqi had always wondered why Lu Wanshuang was encouraging Qin Guan to compete with him. Now, Lu Wanshuang finally couldn't help but reveal her true purpose: she wanted Qin Guan to fight him!

Chapter 134 A Minor Battle with Qin Guan, A Priceless Jade Artifact

Ye Tianqi smiled inwardly upon hearing Lu Wanshuang's words. She had finally given herself away. Ye Tianqi had always wondered why Lu Wanshuang was encouraging Qin Guan to fight him. Now, Lu Wanshuang couldn't help but reveal her true purpose: she wanted Qin Guan to fight him! Did she hope to make him an enemy of Qin Guan? At this moment, Ye Tianqi still didn't know Qin Guan's name or background, so he wondered if there was some powerful figure behind Qin Guan. Was Lu Wanshuang's reason for making him fight Qin Guan to create an enemy of Qin Guan's backer, or was there another reason? Ye Tianqi was unaware that he was half right. Behind Qin Guan was indeed a grandmaster of martial arts, and it was this grandmaster who had injured Fu Yan'er. However, to say that Lu Wanshuang's actions were intended to sow discord between Ye Tianqi and Su Shi would make her seem far too cunning. Lu Wanshuang's true intention was simply to test whether Ye Tianqi's cultivation was truly as unfathomable as her master had described. Anything else, as Ye Tianqi suspected, was beyond her comprehension.

"I am Qin Guan. Since we are evenly matched, why not do as Miss Wanshuang suggests and settle the matter with a martial arts contest? Whoever wins will receive the jade artifact. What do you think, brother?" Qin Guan said politely.

Upon hearing Qin Guan announce his name, Ye Tianqi's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he had encountered Qin Guan, one of the Four Disciples of the Su Clan? Lost in thought, Ye Tianqi noticed his slight hesitation and assumed he disagreed. So Qin Guan said, "If you don't agree, then I'll take your defeat as my own. In that case, the jade is mine." As he spoke, Qin Guan reached out and took the jade.

Ye Tianqi hadn't expected Qin Guan to admit defeat in his momentary lapse in attention. Seeing the jade in Qin Guan's hand, Ye Tianqi said, "We haven't even fought yet, how can you say I'm admitting defeat? Put the jade down!" With that, Ye Tianqi's hand moved like a dragon, swift as lightning, snatching the jade from Qin Guan's hand. Qin

Guan hadn't expected Ye Tianqi to attack so suddenly, and with the jade in his hand at that. Seeing Ye Tianqi's hand about to reach him, Qin Guan remained calm, slightly shifting his body to the side, dodging Ye Tianqi's snatch. Seeing Qin Guan's skillful evasion, Ye Tianqi's arm, seemingly boneless, traced a path through the air, striking again from an angle Qin Guan couldn't anticipate, aimed at the jade artifact in Qin Guan's hand. With

a "bang!", Ye Tianqi's hand was blocked by a folding fan. It turned out that Qin Guan, noticing the unpredictable nature of Ye Tianqi's attack and needing to support the jade with one hand, used his other hand to reach across his waist, retrieve, open, and block the attack—a fluid and graceful movement. The fan's ribs were forged from millennia-old cold iron, and its surface woven from celestial silkworm silk, making it a rare treasure in the martial arts world. The fact that Ye Tianqi's hand was unharmed upon impact with the fan surprised Qin Guan.

"Good skill, let's go again!" Ye Tianqi followed up, his toes lightly touching the ground, aiming directly at Qin Guan's arm holding the jade artifact. Qin Guan hurriedly used his folding fan to block back and forth. Qin Guan's advantage lay in his skillful moves, while Ye Tianqi's advantage lay in his profound inner energy and unpredictable moves. However, Ye Tianqi lacked combat experience, and as the saying goes, a slight difference can lead to a huge mistake. Several times, he almost managed to snatch the jade artifact from Qin Guan's hand, but the experienced Qin Guan spotted his weaknesses and dodged them. The two attacked and defended, flitting through the small shop like butterflies, leaving the onlookers dumbfounded.

Ye Tianqi became more and more comfortable with the fight, his moves becoming increasingly skillful. He still used only one hand to fight Qin Guan, because Qin Guan's other hand was holding the jade, and he didn't want to gain an advantage in that respect.

"Young Master Qin, be careful! I'm going to take the jade!" Ye Tianqi had been sparring with Qin Guan for a while and had a good grasp of Qin Guan's graceful dodging footwork. In this small shop, Qin Guan had a significant advantage thanks to his footwork. The Huajian School's footwork, body movements, and lightness skills were all superb. Having received the true teachings of Su Shi, Qin Guan's movements were naturally agile, and his evasive maneuvers were always stylish.

Qin Guan felt that Ye Tianqi was as unfathomable as the ocean. His endless moves seemed to come from one school, yet also from various other schools. It could be said that Ye Tianqi could use the skills of various schools with ease, making it impossible for Qin Guan to discern Ye Tianqi's martial arts style. Now, hearing that Ye Tianqi wanted to take the jade, although he was confident that he could protect it, he still had to be on high alert.

As Ye Tianqi finished speaking, Qin Guan saw what appeared to be countless figures of Ye Tianqi spinning around him. Qin Guan knew this was an illusion created by Ye Tianqi's incredible speed, and he was secretly amazed by Ye Tianqi's speed. He wondered who would be faster if they were compared. However, this was not the time to think about such things. Undistracted by the illusion, Qin Guan held his folding fan in front of his other hand, ready to defend against any attack Ye Tianqi might launch from anywhere.

Qin Guan slowly closed his eyes. Facing Ye Tianqi's illusion, Qin Guan knew that if he continued to trust his eyes, he would surely fail. So he decisively closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and the rapidly spinning figure gradually became clear. Qin Guan felt a gentle breeze on his face. At that moment, as if he had a premonition, Qin Guan's right hand, holding a fan, appeared in the path of Ye Tianqi's attack. Qin Guan had a smile on his face, seemingly pleased that he had successfully blocked Ye Tianqi's almost perfect attack. However, Ye Tianqi, whose path was blocked, also had a smile on his lips, the kind of smile that comes from a successful cunning scheme, which Shi Feixuan was very familiar with.

Ye Tianqi's body, which was rushing towards Qin Guan, unexpectedly stopped abruptly half a foot away from Qin Guan's thrusting fan. For a moment, it seemed as if the entire space had frozen. The wind generated by his forward momentum still rushed towards Qin Guan, but Ye Tianqi instantly moved from another direction, catching Qin Guan off guard like a wisp of white smoke. Qin Guan's body froze, and he stood there like a deflated balloon, his smile replaced by deep disappointment. The crystalline jade artifact was no longer in Qin Guan's hand, and a chill ran down his back. A palm print had perfectly torn away Qin Guan's clothes without harming his body, demonstrating masterful control of internal energy.

Standing a meter behind Qin Guan, Ye Tianqi held the jade artifact that had originally been in Qin Guan's hand, a smile on his face. Among the crowd, only Shi Feixuan had expected such a dramatic turn of events. Qin Guan's method of closing his eyes and using his mental perception to counter Ye Tianqi's high-speed attack had been met with cheers from the shadows. Qin Guan's method was undeniably successful, but his defeat was sealed the moment he closed his eyes. Ye Tianqi had intended to make him believe in his mental perception, creating the illusion that his attack had been blocked. In the final instant, the attack shifted from motion to stillness. The high-speed impact created enough air currents to make Qin Guan unaware that Ye Tianqi had vanished before him. His block was merely against thin air. Without protection, Qin Guan naturally couldn't withstand Ye Tianqi's attack and was defeated, losing the jade artifact to him.

The entire exchange happened in the blink of an eye, yet the wisdom and cunning involved were extraordinary. Although Qin Guan was defeated, he blocked all of Ye Tianqi's attack routes until the very last moment before his defeat. A spectacular battle for the jade ended in this small jade shop.

"Brother Qin, your skill is indeed superb. I'm honored," Ye Tianqi said to the dejected Qin Guan.

"I lost." Just three words, but the sorrow in them was clearly felt by everyone in the shop. Since becoming a disciple of Su Shi, Qin Guan had enjoyed smooth sailing. At a young age, he possessed a level of skill that many senior figures in the martial arts world could not match. Although he knew there were always stronger opponents, he had never encountered one before. Today, he was suddenly defeated by someone who wasn't even there. Naturally, Qin Guan was devastated. Fortunately, Qin Guan was a disciple carefully taught by Su Shi, and his strong will would not be broken by a single defeat. If Lu Wanshuang hadn't been present today, Qin Guan probably wouldn't have lost his composure like this. The word "emotion" is subtle and complex. A fleeting look of disappointment crossed Qin Guan's face. He said in a low voice, "I have lost. The jade belongs to you. If there is an opportunity to learn from you again someday, I will take my leave." With that, Qin Guan turned and walked away, but before leaving, he gave Lu Wanshuang a deep look.

Lu Wanshuang had watched the entire jade-grabbing battle closely. Ye Tianqi's unpredictable moves and lightning-fast speed astonished her. Especially his final, deceptive attack, which deeply shocked her. She could imagine that if she were in Qin Guan's shoes, she might be able to better defend against Ye Tianqi's attack, but the result would definitely be the same as Qin Guan's defeat, because she too would be unable to defend against the fatal real attack hidden beneath the feint.

Although Ye Tianqi didn't use his true skills, meaning that in his fight with Qin Guan, Ye Tianqi was always outwitting and outmaneuvering Qin Guan rather than relying on his superior cultivation to suppress him, even though it didn't reveal Ye Tianqi's true strength, Lu Wanshuang felt that her trip had been worthwhile. Seeing Qin Guan's figure disappear through the door, although she wasn't overly concerned about him, she felt responsible for his disappointment. She had been caught up in the conflict with Ye Tianqi, and she felt partly responsible for Qin Guan's disappointment. It wasn't appropriate for her to stay any longer, so Lu Wanshuang smiled at everyone in the shop and said, "Gentlemen, I'll take my leave now. Until we meet again." She then drifted away, but before leaving, she gave Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan a deep look, her eyes filled with a strange expression.

The shop quieted down. Ye Tianqi coughed lightly, startling everyone. He said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, please wrap up the jade ornaments we've selected."

The shopkeeper had just recovered from the spectacular fight between Ye Tianqi and Qin Guan. Having been in the Song Dynasty for over ten years, this was the first time he'd witnessed such a thrilling battle. The Western Regions businessman couldn't help but have a much higher opinion of Chinese culture; at least the skill involved was incredibly advanced, and the agility and movement in mid-air seemed mysterious to him.

Hearing Ye Tianqi's words, the shopkeeper quickly instructed his staff to wrap up the ornaments Ye Tianqi and his group had selected. Looking at the exquisite brocade boxes wrapped together, a large package was placed before them. Ye Tianqi asked, "How much?"

"One hundred thousand taels of silver in total," the shopkeeper replied, looking at Ye Tianqi.

"Ah! So much! Ten thousand taels of silver?" Yang Ning exclaimed. The Yang sisters also looked surprised. Although they had heard that the jade pieces at Boyuzhai were incredibly expensive, the Yang family had strict rules, and even Yang Ning, who was deeply favored by the Emperor, was not allowed to spend money extravagantly. Naturally, they didn't know just how expensive the jade pieces at Boyuzhai were.

The ten thousand taels was actually because the shopkeeper had asked for less. Ye Tianqi and Kou Xu were both very discerning; the jade pieces they selected were the most precious in the shop. The fact that so many expensive pieces had been chosen meant that Boyuzhai would have no good jade pieces left for at least a month, as most had already been selected by the three of them. Therefore, the price naturally surprised the women who were unaware of the inside story.

Seeing the shopkeeper's clear eyes, Ye Tianqi realized he wasn't the type to overcharge, so he nodded, took out a few silver notes from his pocket, and handed them to the shopkeeper. He then said to Kou Xu, who was holding two wrapped jade pieces, "You should pay for your own jade pieces. It's the first time you've given something to someone, so as their brother, I can't do it for them!" Ye Tianqi then glanced teasingly at the two women and

then at Kou Xu. Ye Tianqi pulled Shi Feixuan and Yan Yue outside, while Yang Ning followed behind, carrying the heavy bundle. Her lips were upturned, and she mumbled something unintelligible, perhaps complaining that Ye Tianqi didn't appreciate her carrying such a heavy bundle. However, the smile on her face revealed how happy the young girl was, because she was wearing the fine jade bracelet Ye Tianqi had given her.

Kou and Xu each took out the silver notes Ye Tianqi had given them beforehand to pay the bill, then glanced shyly at the Yang sisters waiting for them. The four of them walked out of the shop, and behind them came the shopkeeper's voice: "Honorable guests, please come again next time." Kou Nianhe said softly, "Come again? Just one trip and we've spent over ten thousand taels of silver! Good heavens, our third brother is really extravagant. Even if we come to a place like this again, we can't bring him. I'm afraid if we come a few more times, we'll all be dragged down to poverty by him."

Chapter 135: Ambush on the Road, Su Shi's Powerful

Approach. Kou and Xu each took out the silver notes Ye Tianqi had given them beforehand to pay the bill, then glanced shyly at the Yang sisters waiting for them. The four Yang sisters walked out of the small shop, and the shopkeeper's voice came from behind them: "Honorable guests, please come again next time." Kou Nianhe said softly, "Come again? Just one visit and you've spent more than 100,000 taels of silver! Good heavens, our third brother is really extravagant. Even if we come to a place like this again, we can't bring him again. I'm afraid if we come a few more times, we'll be dragged down to poverty by him."

Yang Yanyue didn't expect that Kou Nianhe, who usually seemed serious and composed, would have such a humorous side. She couldn't help but cover her red lips with her fair hand and chuckle. Yang Yanshu, on the other hand, was different from her sister. She laughed heartily and slapped her leg as she laughed.

Seeing everyone around them looking at them, Kou Nianhe, summoning courage from who-knows-where, stepped forward and took Yang Yanyue's hand. The smooth touch stirred Kou Nianhe's heart, while Yang Yanyue's body jerked violently, trying to pull away from Kou Nianhe's grasp. However, Kou Nianhe was incredibly nervous, holding a woman's hand for the first time, and ended up holding Yang Yanyue's hand tightly. Ironically, Yang Yanyue lowered her head shyly and followed beside Kou Nianhe, who led her hand as they chased after Ye Tianqi and the others.

Seeing his elder brother and Yang Yanyue walking hand in hand ahead, Xu Mu wanted to hold Yang Yanshu's hand as well, but after several attempts, he lacked the courage. Although Yang Yanshu was somewhat outgoing, she was still a young woman after all, and she noticed Xu Mu's expression and actions. She inwardly cursed him for being such a fool. To Xu Mu's surprise, Yang Yanshu suddenly grabbed his hand. Looking up at Yang Yanshu's shy appearance, Xu Mu's courage surged. He took her smooth little hand in his own, feeling immensely satisfied as they walked forward. Yang Yanshu, as if she had used up all her courage, followed behind Xu Mu like a shy young wife for the next while, much to Xu Mu's astonishment.

Both Shi Feixuan and Yan Yue were stunningly beautiful, with Shi Feixuan being a true beauty of her generation. Therefore, the sight of the two women being led by Ye Tianqi down the street was extremely conspicuous. Since Confucianism had reached its zenith at this time, and the expectations placed on women regarding the "Three Obediences and Four Virtues" originated from this era, Ye Tianqi's bold act of holding hands with two women in public drew gasps of disbelief from passersby. However, Ye Tianqi paid no attention to their stares. He continued on his way, leading the two women around, looking at and touching everything, occasionally turning back to call out to Yang Ning, who was following behind.

Ye Tianqi stopped and turned around, just in time to see his two older brothers holding the hands of the Yang sisters. Ye Tianqi was stunned. Shi Feixuan, seeing Ye Tianqi's dazed expression, nudged him and asked, "Husband, what's wrong?"

Ye Tianqi pointed at the approaching Kou and Xu couples and laughed, "Nothing, it's just strange that my two brothers have become so capable, holding the hands of two young ladies. I, as their brother, haven't done anything yet." As he spoke, Ye Tianqi looked at Yang Ning.

Shi Feixuan laughed, "Haven't done anything yet! You haven't even made a move, and this little girl is already completely captivated by you. A princess is helping you carry your things. What more do you want?"

"Sister Shi, what are you talking about? Why are you so happy?" Yang Ning walked up to the two and asked.

Shi Feixuan shook off Ye Tianqi's hand, took Yang Ning's hand, and said seriously, "It's nothing, just talking about when my husband should go to the Old Madam to propose marriage, to see if we can bring our little princess home."

Yang Ning had initially thought something serious was going on when she saw Shi Feixuan's serious expression, but instead, Shi Feixuan was laughing at her. However, she was secretly delighted and protested, "Sister, you're laughing at Ning'er! I'm not talking to you anymore!"

"Oh, does Ning'er not want to? Well then, in that case, I won't let my husband go to the Old Madam. Anyway, I don't like my husband," Shi Feixuan said earnestly.

"No..." Yang Ning blurted out upon hearing Shi Feixuan's words, but seeing Shi Feixuan's teasing expression and Yan Yue covering her mouth and giggling, Yang Ning knew she had been tricked by her older sister again. She hadn't expected Shi Feixuan to be so good at teasing people.

"What do you mean, 'no'? What's wrong with Xiao Ning'er? Her face is all red." Yang Yan Yue, who had just walked up to Kou Nian He and was holding her hand, heard Yang Ning shout "no!" Seeing Shi Fei Xuan and Yan Yue's expressions, the clever Yang Yan Yue could roughly guess the reason. She stepped forward and asked the shy Yang Ning.

Yang Ning didn't understand what her aunt meant, but seeing the smile in Yang Yan Yue's eyes, she immediately ran away from the two girls with her bag, saying, "I'm ignoring you! You're all bullying me!"

Seeing Yang Ning's somewhat childish behavior, the girls all laughed. Following behind Yang Ning, they talked as they walked, when suddenly Shi Fei Xuan and Ye Tian Qi stopped abruptly. Their smiles vanished, replaced by serious expressions.

"What's wrong?" Kou Nian He asked, noticing their strange expressions.

"Who is this expert who is playing tricks on us like this? If you are a hero, don't hide your face. Please come out and show yourself!" Ye Tian Qi didn't answer Kou Nian He's question but spoke loudly.

Hearing Ye Tianqi's words, Kou and Xu knew there might be a powerful figure nearby, and quickly protected the two Yang women. They cautiously surveyed their surroundings, but since they were in a secluded place, there was no one in sight.

"Indeed, no wonder you could defeat Guan'er. Such cultivation at such a young age truly broadens my horizons!" As the words fell, a middle-aged scholar of about forty appeared behind them, his refined demeanor and rich literary aura revealing his status. "Grand Scholar

Su?" Yang Yan Yue, a renowned talented woman from the capital, was naturally familiar with Su Shi, and asked with curiosity when he appeared before them.

"So you are Grand Scholar Su, senior? We greet you, senior." Ye Tianqi was startled upon seeing the middle-aged man exuding the aura of a great master. Who was Su Shi? In his later years, Ye Tianqi knew he was a famous literary figure of the Song Dynasty, who left behind a wealth of literary treasures for China. In this world, Ye Tianqi already knew from Ye Xin that Su Shi was a grandmaster, skilled in both literature and martial arts. Now, Su Shi stood before him, an imposing aura emanating from him. Ye Tianqi suppressed his own aura and glanced at Shi Feixuan beside him, his pretty face also solemn. Ye Tianqi knew that Shi Feixuan, like himself, was resisting Su Shi's increasingly intense aura. Ye Tianqi looked around at the surroundings, which could be considered the best place to fight, and said to Kou and Xu, who were standing blankly to the side, "Big brother, second brother, you take them away first.

Feixuan and I will stay here to meet with Senior Su." Kou Nianhe glanced at Su Shi, whose face was still calm, and then at Ye Tianqi, who looked slightly nervous. Kou Nianhe knew that it would be difficult for them to help in a battle of this level. Staying here might only make Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan worry and lose focus. So, after hearing Ye Tianqi's words, Kou Nianhe decisively said to Ye Tianqi, "Third brother, be careful." After saying that, he pulled Yan Yue and protected the three women as they left.

Su Shi seemed to have no intention of keeping them, so he let them leave. Not far away, Yang Yan Yue said, "Young Master Ye and Miss Shi might not be a match for Scholar Su. Let's hurry and find Grandma." Just as the group headed towards Tianbo Mansion, Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan were already facing off against Su Shi.

The two were desperately resisting the immense pressure emanating from Su Shi. For the first time, they felt a lack of confidence. Just as their hearts wavered, Su Shi's figure seemed to ignore the existence of space, moving through the air like a shadow. When the two reacted, they found Su Shi's palm already close at hand.

"I'll risk it!" Ye Tianqi gathered his energy in his dantian, his legs assuming a simple horse stance. His true energy surged like a vast ocean, flowing rapidly through his meridians. Ye Tianqi slowly raised his palm to meet Su Shi's palm, seemingly slow but actually fast. It was as if his palm had already touched Su Shi's palm the moment he raised it. The contact was sudden and silent, yet Ye Tianqi seemed to be propelled by some force, his body sliding backward on the ground, leaving a deep scratch on the marble pavement.

"Ugh!" At the same time, Shi Feixuan was also exchanging blows with Su Shi. Shi Feixuan only felt a familiar true energy rushing towards her own when she exchanged palms with Su Shi. That true energy was clearly Ye Tianqi's true energy, but she didn't know how Su Shi had borrowed it. Shi Feixuan's own skill was slightly weaker than Ye Tianqi's at this moment. Although Ye Tianqi's skill had been weakened considerably by Su Shi's transfer, with Su Shi's true energy as backup, Shi Feixuan suffered a slight loss in the initial exchange, as Ye Tianqi's true energy penetrated her meridians. If it had been Su Shi's true energy that had penetrated Shi Feixuan's meridians, she might have been able to land a heavy blow. However, Shi Feixuan knew the properties of Ye Tianqi's true energy all too well. She had been cultivating with Ye Tianqi for many years, and in recent years, she had also engaged in dual cultivation with him. Therefore, Ye Tianqi's internal energy and her internal energy were now very similar. Their breaths seemed indistinguishable, so when Ye Tianqi's inner energy entered Shi Feixuan's meridians, Shi Feixuan was not surprised but delighted. She immediately guided the uncontrolled true energy towards her other hand. A blush flashed across Shi Feixuan's face, and she suddenly raised her other hand, shooting a sharp force towards Su Shi. Su Shi hadn't expected that the situation he had created from the start would be ruined because Shi Feixuan and Ye Tianqi's inner energy were so familiar. He had originally exhausted all his efforts to borrow Ye Tianqi's power to seriously injure Shi Feixuan, but Shi Feixuan had neutralized it, leaving him with only a minor injury.

Su Shi lightly touched one leg in the air, and surprisingly, he suddenly raised his body in mid-air, barely dodging Shi Feixuan's sharp energy sword.

Ye Tianqi calmed his turbulent inner energy slightly, and in a flash, he appeared beside Shi Feixuan, took her slender hand, and a vast amount of inner energy entered Shi Feixuan's body, helping to heal the injuries to her meridians.

When Su Shi saw Ye Tianqi immediately begin treating Shi Feixuan's injuries, he assumed Ye Tianqi was just a young lad who had recently descended the mountain, completely unaware of the danger and treating her injuries without regard for the circumstances, especially while the powerful enemy was still at large. He wondered which master's disciple Ye Tianqi was, possessing such cultivation at such a young age. He wondered what would happen in the future… Su Shi initially only saw his disciple return looking dejected, but after questioning Qin Guan, Qin Guan finally recounted the events. Su Shi reprimanded Qin Guan for disobeying him and developing feelings for Lu Wanshuang. He warned that if Qin Guan continued like this, he would be finished and could not make any further progress. As the disciple Su Shi had invested the most effort in, Su Shi naturally wouldn't watch Qin Guan wither away. He made a plan. However, he became interested in the man and woman Qin Guan mentioned, especially since they were accompanied by members of the Yang family. This reminded Su Shi of the intelligence he had received: the Yin Gui Sect and the Great Liao Heavenly Dao experts' assassination attempt on Yang Yanzhao had failed due to two young masters who appeared unexpectedly. Now Su Shi couldn't help but connect the dots, which led to his secret observation and confrontation with Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan.

While healing Shi Feixuan, Ye Tianqi kept an eye on Su Shi. Suddenly, a chilling killing intent emanated from Su Shi. Although it was fleeting, it didn't escape Ye Tianqi's keen senses. From the moment Su Shi appeared before them until their exchange, Ye Tianqi had always sensed that Su Shi harbored no murderous intent towards them. The absence of killing intent was not frightening; even with Su Shi's high cultivation, with their combined strength, they wouldn't be seriously injured. However, if Su Shi harbored murderous intent, it would be a different story.

Su Shi glanced at the two with regret, muttering, "You two are so talented, yet... yet..."

Just as Ye Tianqi was wondering why Su Shi harbored murderous intent towards him, Su Shi, who had been standing not far away, suddenly vanished. Ye Tianqi knew that Su Shi had already decided to kill them, and when Su Shi's attack came, it would be like a mountain crashing down, utterly devastating. Originally, they thought that few in the martial world could harm them and Shi Feixuan's combined strength, but today they had encountered one. It should be noted that Su Shi's cultivation was close to that of the Four Grandmasters; even among the Four Grandmasters, no one dared to boast of defeating or seriously injuring Su Shi. Therefore, this time Ye Tianqi had truly encountered a master.

Just as Ye Tianqi was fully on high alert, his vision blurred. Su Shi's figure, like a butterfly flitting among flowers, approached him with uncanny steps. In Ye Tianqi's eyes, it seemed as if Su Shi's image was all around him. Ye Tianqi recognized the movement technique; it was the same move Qin Guan had used

in his

fight at Boyuzhai not long ago. However, the same move produced different effects on different people. Ye Tianqi, who had been preparing to flee if he couldn't win, was horrified to find that Su Shi's figure seemed to have blocked all

his escape routes. As Su Shi drew closer, Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan were almost of one mind. They were ready to fight him to the death. Ye Tianqi refused to believe that he and Shi Feixuan, working together, couldn't escape from Su Shi's clutches. The two unleashed their combined attack technique, which they had practiced in the quiet retreat for any eventuality. Hand in hand, their inner energy circulated, one yin and one yang, forming a near-Tai Chi-like flow of energy. As their bodies slowly rotated, the energy drew closer, and small gusts of wind arose around them. Stones on the ground flew towards Su Shi as if they had eyes, but Su Shi dodged them all with his exquisite movements. He had no intention of harming Su Shi; they were merely meant to cause him trouble and buy time for him to gather his strength. When Su Shi appeared before them as if he had traversed space, Ye Tianqi suddenly tossed Shi Feixuan upwards. Shi Feixuan, like a flying fairy, somersaulted in the air, her slender palms shimmering with crystalline light as she attacked Su Shi's crown. Ye Tianqi attacked Su Shi's lower body from below. Lacking any martial arts training, his combined attack technique was hardly worthy of a true master's eye. However, a genuine master wouldn't tolerate Ye Tianqi's almost rogue-like fighting style. Therefore, when Ye Xin saw Ye Tianqi testing his moves on her, she couldn't help but chuckle inwardly at his so-called combined attack technique. However, she didn't object to Ye Tianqi's shameless method. Perhaps if someone else used it, Ye Xin would only see them as a complete rogue, but who could blame her when it was Ye Tianqi, who had made her abandon the path of martial arts? Ye Xin remarked that while Ye Tianqi's fighting style was rogue-like, it could be effective against a true master in a short time.

Just as Ye Xin had predicted, Su Shi was now struggling to keep up with Ye Tianqi's attack. Shi Feixuan and Ye Tianqi, moving from above and below, coordinated flawlessly, leaving Su Shi scrambling to defend himself. Su Shi deflected Shi Feixuan's kick aimed at his face with a palm strike, and blocked Ye Tianqi's attack on his abdomen with a leg raise. Using the recoil, Su Shi's body floated back.

"I absolutely cannot let him create distance and defeat us one by one," Ye Tianqi recalled that Ye Xin's method of breaking his and Shi Feixuan's combined attack technique was to use hit-and-run tactics to wait for an opportunity to defeat them one by one. Without Ye Tianqi's reminder, Shi Feixuan landed from the air and lightly touched Ye Tianqi's shoulder, attacking Su Shi's retreating figure with her sword in hand. Ye Tianqi suddenly struck Shi Feixuan's foot, and Shi Feixuan only felt a powerful surge of true energy flowing from Ye Tianqi's fist. Her forward speed suddenly increased by nearly double, much to Su Shi's surprise. In the blink of an eye, Shi Feixuan, sword in hand, was in front of Su Shi. Su Shi's foot slammed on the ground, his body abruptly stopping, his fist clenched to meet Shi Feixuan's sword in hand.

With a loud "Bang!", an invisible force rippled outwards, centered on the point where the two fists and palms collided. The ground around them seemed to have been scraped away. Su Shi staggered back several steps before regaining his footing, while Shi Feixuan spat out a mouthful of blood, her body shuddering as she was thrown back. Ye Tianqi, seeing this, cried out "Feixuan!" and caught her in his arms. He channeled a stream of vital energy into her body. At this moment, Shi Feixuan's meridians seemed to have been assaulted by a tremendous force, as if they were about to break. As Ye Tianqi caught her, Shi Feixuan coughed up another mouthful of blood. Seeing Ye Tianqi looking at her with worry and self-reproach, Shi Feixuan suddenly felt that her injuries were no longer important. She gently raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of Ye Tianqi's eyes, and said with a smile, "Husband, you cried. Feixuan is so happy. This is the first time you have cried for Feixuan, and it is also the first time Feixuan has seen you cry. You are a man, and a man does not easily shed tears. Feixuan does not want to see her husband cry for Feixuan again. Is that alright?"

"Silly girl, isn't there another line below, 'It's just that the heartbreak hasn't reached its peak yet'? Your husband feels very guilty right now." Ye Tianqi's eyes were glistening as he stabilized Shi Feixuan's injuries. It could be said that Shi Feixuan's injuries were no less severe than Fu Yan'er's. Fortunately, Ye Tianqi's Longevity True Qi had a miraculous effect on healing, which allowed him to control Shi Feixuan's injuries. If he didn't find a way to heal her, not only would Shi Feixuan's cultivation not be preserved, but her life would also be in danger. At this moment, Ye Tianqi finally knew who had injured Fu Yan'er so badly. Apart from Su Shi's burst of True Qi, there was probably no one else who could make the two women's injuries almost the same. He gently placed Shi Feixuan's body against the wall, reached out and pinched Shi Feixuan's smooth, pretty face, and smiled, "You should rest well first, and watch your husband deal with him."

Shi Feixuan smiled slightly, watching Ye Tianqi stand up, and said in a trembling voice, "Husband, be careful. If anything happens to you, Feixuan will not live alone."

"Don't worry, I'm a super villain. There are still so many beautiful women in the world I haven't married yet. My husband won't just leave like this," Ye Tianqi turned around and smiled wickedly at Shi Feixuan. But as soon as Ye Tianqi turned away, the smile vanished, replaced by frost. "Grand Scholar Su, I have always admired you, but your actions today have truly disappointed me. Although I am no match for you, you have injured my beloved wife, and I will fight you to the death." As he spoke,

light slowly emanated from Ye Tianqi's body, and a small sword gradually appeared between his brows.

After obtaining the divine sword, Ye Tianqi used the immortal secret technique of "Sword Nurturing" to store the sword within his brow and train it, aiming to achieve a state of perfect unity between body and sword. True unity of body and sword means that the person is the sword, and the sword is the person; throughout history, no one (human, immortal, or god) has ever cultivated true unity of body and sword to its highest level. The complete cultivation method of "Sword Nurturing" exists in the memories of the Carefree Celestial Venerable. Ye Tianqi, after obtaining the divine sword, only began practicing "Sword Nurturing" after becoming nearly invincible at its peak. In his words, since he was using the time he would spend on flirting to cultivate, he should cultivate the most powerful thing; otherwise, he might as well use that time to please beauties! Although it was only half a month, with the memories of the Carefree Celestial Venerable and Ye Tianqi's unprecedented talent, coupled with the miraculous Longevity True Technique as his backing, he cultivated the "Sword Nourishing Technique" to the level of Sword Nourishing within a short period of half a month. The Sword Nourishing Technique is divided into four stages. The first stage is Sword Transformation, followed by Sword Nourishing, Sword Heart, and Body-Sword Unity.

As the name suggests, Sword Transformation is to integrate the divine sword into one's own body, returning it to its original state. This is the entry point and also the most difficult to master. Generally, nine out of ten people who practice the Sword Nourishing Technique cannot transform the sword and therefore cannot practice. Ye Tianqi, however, by chance, used the chaotic power generated during his dual cultivation with Shi Feixuan in his dantian universe to slowly return the divine sword to its original state, which still took Ye Tianqi a great deal of effort. Sword Nourishing is to slowly nurture the transformed divine sword back to its original state. At that time, the divine sword can be said to be one with the practitioner. Sword Heart is to cultivate the sword's spirituality after Sword Nourishing is completed, giving it a sword heart. At this point, those who have cultivated a sword heart are already among the strongest in the world; where the heart is, the sword is. The unity of body and sword is merely a legendary realm. It is said that at that point, man is the sword, and the sword is man; the sword has truly merged into the body, allowing one to roam freely across the world, tearing through space and shattering the void with ease. It is precisely because the book describes the "Sword Nurturing Technique" as so powerful that Ye Tianqi has chosen to practice this immortal art.

Currently, Ye Tianqi has only just entered the threshold of the Sword Nurturing Technique, beginning to nurture his sword. When Ye Tianqi forced the sword from between his brows, a sharp sword aura soared into the sky, a chilling sword energy emanating from the small sword. Stimulated by the fierce sword energy and stunned by the bizarre scene before him, Su Shi snapped out of his daze. Although he didn't know what trick Ye Tianqi was playing, the extraordinary appearance of Ye Tianqi's sword indicated that Ye Tianqi might be unleashing his most powerful technique. In truth, Ye Tianqi possessed no special skills whatsoever; even his sword-nurturing technique was something he had only begun practicing

in the last few days. Looking at the divine sword hovering before him, barely taking on its sword form, Ye Tianqi knew he was only just beginning and had a long way to go before truly nurturing a sword. He hoped this nascent sword could inflict some harm on Su Shi. Ye Tianqi gathered his energy and spirit, a divine light flashing in his eyes, and softly commanded, "Go!" The small sword shot forth like an arrow, seemingly tearing through space itself, blurring the very path it traversed.

Su Shi, with his keen eyesight, noticed the space being torn apart by the sword's passage and was astonished. He wondered what kind of martial art possessed such power. Even with his current cultivation, he could vaguely achieve the same effect, but it was only a fleeting moment. Could this little fellow actually possess its own cultivation? Little did he know that this was Ye Tianqi's all-out attack. Ye Tianqi's entire spirit and energy were now focused on the small sword, while his standing body was merely a hollow shell, easily toppled with a slight touch.

Su Shi, watching the small sword hurtling towards him, became serious for the first time. He gathered all his strength and unleashed three powerful punches along the sword's path. After the three punches, Su Shi felt utterly powerless, and the small sword even showed signs of bending upon the first impact. Its blurred shape seemed to fade considerably, and after the second and third blows, only a faint image remained, as if a gust of wind would dissipate it. Ye Tianqi, on the other hand, bled from his mouth, eyes, nose, and ears when the first punch struck the sword, and his body slammed to the ground. When the second and third punches nearly shattered the sword's shape, Ye Tianqi's body trembled violently, and he coughed up blood repeatedly.

Shi Feixuan had been watching Ye Tianqi closely. When she saw him sit down with his back to her, then his body tremble and a spurt of blood erupt, Shi Feixuan felt as if her heart had been stabbed. The deep bond she had formed with Ye Tianqi over the years seemed to be fading, as if it were about to break.

Chapter 137: Beauty Bleeds, Unconscious

. Shi Feixuan could no longer care about her own injuries. She lightly patted the ground with her slender hand and floated towards Ye Tianqi, landing beside him just as he was about to collapse. Shi Feixuan saw that Ye Tianqi was bleeding from all seven orifices, his face was ashen, and his breath was weak; he seemed on the verge of death. At the same time, the faintly visible small sword in the air suddenly flashed and merged into Ye Tianqi's brow. The essence and spirit of the sword replenished Ye Tianqi's physical losses, but the essence and spirit of the sword had been almost completely depleted after Su Shi's attack. Therefore, entering Ye Tianqi's body could only keep him alive. If a way to treat his severe injuries was not found quickly, Ye Tianqi's life would probably be in danger.

"Husband... no! Don't abandon Feixuan..." Shi Feixuan held Ye Tianqi's body and cried out like a cuckoo crying blood, spitting out streams of blood that stained the white palace gauze red, making her look extremely tragic and beautiful. Su Shi unleashed three punches in quick succession. Each time his fist collided with the small sword, Su Shi's body trembled slightly and he took a step back. When the third punch struck, Su Shi spat out a spurt of blood. He knew he had suffered a serious injury. He stood there, adjusting his condition and suppressing it for the time being. Looking at the two people embracing each other without any ability to resist, Su Shi walked heavily toward them. Each step felt like a death knell echoing in Shi Feixuan's heart, but Shi Feixuan didn't care at all. All her attention was focused on Ye Tianqi. At this moment, Ye Tianqi was her everything.

When Su Shi reached the two men, Shi Feixuan finally looked up at him. Her eyes showed neither panic nor hatred. She simply said,

"Go ahead and do it. The people of Jingzhai won't die in vain, nor will they beg for mercy." With that, she embraced the unconscious Ye Tianqi, her eyes filled with tenderness. She whispered, "Brother Qi, in life, I was your wife, and in death, I will remain your wife."

Hearing this, Su Shi froze. Jingzhai? Were these two children from Jingzhai? But what could he do? The situation had already reached this point. Su Shi had no choice but to kill them, even if it meant forging a deep enmity with Jingzhai. The relationships he had painstakingly cultivated with the righteous sects over the years would likely be severed, and Jingzhai's revenge would follow. He didn't know what was wrong with him today, that he would make things so difficult for these two juniors. He could only hope that Jingzhai wouldn't make a big fuss about it. However, if he knew that one of the two people in front of him was the current Jingzhai master's personal disciple and the other was his beloved son, Su Shi probably wouldn't be able to bear the shock, because it meant that the Huajian Sect would be in trouble from now on.

"Fine, don't blame me, go." As he spoke, Su Shi raised his palm and struck the tops of the two people who were waiting for death with their eyes closed. Even if a god descended from heaven, he wouldn't be able to save them with one strike.

"Master, your disciple is unfilial. I will repay your kindness in the next life... Husband, let's be husband and wife again in the next life," Shi Feixuan thought silently in her heart.

Ye Tianqi, who had awoke at some unknown time, watched the slowly descending hand. His eyes flashed through a series of beautiful faces, finally settling on Ye Xin's. He had been born through her; Ye Xin was, in theory, his mother. But Ye Tianqi knew that deep down, he had never truly considered her his mother. Seeing that he was about to die, Ye Tianqi cried out in his heart, "Ye Xin, if there is an afterlife, I hope we can continue our bond." Meanwhile, far away on Mount Emei, Ye Xin suddenly dropped the scroll she was holding, crying out in alarm, "Qi'er..." A heart-wrenching pain spread from the depths of her soul; the mysterious, innate connection between herself and Ye Tianqi seemed to be severing. "No..." A heartfelt cry echoed across Mount Emei, startling countless birds in the bamboo forest.

"Senior Sister, what's wrong?" Hearing Ye Xin's cry, a woman rushed into the room and saw that Ye Xin, whose face had been rosy, was now deathly pale, as if she had suffered immense pain.

"Tian Qi... something happened to Tian Qi," Ye Xin said in a trembling voice.

"Impossible, Senior Sister. Perhaps you miss Qi'er too much. With Fei Xuan and Tian Qi joining forces, how many people in the world could harm them? Besides, they're in the capital now, and the only one in the capital who could pose a threat to them is Su Shi. Senior Sister, you know what kind of person Su Shi is. So, Qi'er and Fei Xuan should be safe in the capital. Senior Sister, you should rest well. I'll send someone to investigate Qi'er's whereabouts."

At this moment, Ye Xin felt that the inexplicable connection between herself and Ye Tian Qi still existed, and the throbbing pain in her heart disappeared. Feeling slightly relieved, she nodded.

A face flashed through Ye Tian Qi's mind one last time. A strange light flashed in Ye Tian Qi's eyes. He suddenly grabbed the closed-eye Fei Xuan, who was waiting to die, and rolled to the side with all his might. With a "boom!", a deep crater appeared where the two had been standing, showing what would have happened if that palm had struck them.

Shi Feixuan opened her eyes and saw Ye Tianqi take out a jade pendant from his robes. Just as she was wondering what was happening, she heard Ye Tianqi call out to the pendant, "Zhimeng, come out quickly!"

At that moment, Xuan Zhimeng, who was inside the pendant, sat there blankly, lost in thought. Suddenly, she sensed that Ye Tianqi, whose life was connected to hers, was in danger. Remembering that she had sealed the pendant, automatically filtering out anything except Ye Tianqi calling her directly, she realized she hadn't secretly observed him for some time, fearing it would stir up her longing. Just as Xuan Zhimeng was about to check what was happening, she heard Ye Tianqi's urgent voice calling her out. Xuan Zhimeng could hear the urgency in Ye Tianqi's voice. As Ye Tianqi finished speaking, to the astonishment of Shi Feixuan and Su Shi, a petite woman slowly flew out of the jade pendant, growing larger and larger until a woman, like a fairy from the moon palace, appeared beside Ye Tianqi.

Seeing Ye Tianqi bleeding from all seven orifices, Xuan Zhimeng immediately knelt beside him to examine his injuries. However, the result sank her heart. Ye Tianqi was only clinging to life by a strange life force in his dantian, and without a cure, he could die at any moment. Just as Xuan Zhimeng was blaming herself, she heard Ye Tianqi say, "Zhimeng, watch out behind you!"

As soon as Ye Tianqi finished speaking, a halo of light rippled around Xuan Zhimeng, enveloping the three of them—a barrier from a celestial technique. Su Shi struck the barrier with his palm, and it seemed unable to withstand the force of the palm, suddenly disappearing. However, Su Shi's palm force was completely neutralized by the barrier. Xuan Zhimeng stood up, her beautiful eyes filled with murderous intent as she looked at Su Shi. Su Shi had never imagined that a woman could be so beautiful and ethereal; even the term "fairy" couldn't describe Xuan Zhimeng's beauty. However, seeing the murderous intent in Xuan Zhimeng's eyes and witnessing the strange aura just now, Su Shi could roughly guess that Xuan Zhimeng was a legendary cultivator. After weighing the strength of both sides, although Xuan Zhimeng's magic was exquisite, Su Shi was confident that he could defeat her. However, he was currently suppressing his severe injuries, and judging from the time, the people he had spared should have brought reinforcements. In other words, he could not kill the two of them today no matter what. With this realization, Su Shi decisively said to Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan, "This time, I have bullied the weak. If you want revenge, I will be waiting. Farewell." As soon as he finished speaking, Su Shi's figure rose into the air and disappeared without a trace between the houses.

Seeing that Xuan Zhimeng wanted to chase after him again, Ye Tianqi, knowing Su Shi's prowess and fearing something might happen to her, quickly stopped her. However, seeing Su Shi leave and feeling no pressure, Ye Tianqi immediately fainted. He vaguely heard the two women calling his name, but he felt incredibly tired and only wanted to sleep forever.

Just as the two women were weeping over Ye Tianqi's unconscious body, they heard footsteps approaching from afar.

"Grandma, it's over there!" A group of people appeared around the corner, led by Yang Ning, who was pointing to the place where Ye Tianqi had parted ways with them. However, when she saw the scene, she exclaimed, "Brother Ye..." At the same time, Yan Yue cried out in anguish and ran towards the three people in the distance with Yang Ning.

Grandma She looked at the ravaged ground and the large crater not far from the three people crying, the bloodstains indicating a fierce battle had taken place. Originally, Grandmother She was meditating at home when Yang Ning and the others came running home crying. Grandmother She usually doted on Yang Ning, to the point of spoiling him. Seeing Yang Ning's tearful appearance, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken. She hurriedly asked what had happened. When Yang Ning recounted, in broken sentences, how Su Shi had made things difficult for Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan, Grandmother She smiled and said, "Perhaps Scholar Su was just joking with the younger generation." But as soon as she finished speaking, she felt a violent energy fluctuation. This meant that there were people with profound cultivation engaged in a life-or-death battle. Grandmother She immediately realized that things were not as she had described. She grabbed Yang Ning's hand and said,

"Husband... Husband, what happened? Sister, tell me!" Yan Yue saw Ye Tianqi lying in Shi Feixuan's arms, blood flowing from his seven orifices, his face pale, and even his breathing extremely weak. She cried and asked Shi Feixuan.

"Husband...husband...uh!..." A spurt of blood gushed from Shi Feixuan's mouth, her delicate body went limp, and she fainted like Ye Tianqi.

Yan Yue had never seen such a scene before. Seeing Shi Feixuan suddenly faint, she seemed to have lost her pillar of support, and grabbed Shi Feixuan, saying, "Sister, wake up...sister..."

At this moment, Madam She walked up and said, "Miss Yan Yue, don't worry, let me check your injuries."

Hearing Madam She's words, Yan Yue seemed to have grasped a lifeline, and hurriedly said, "Madam, you must save my sister and husband!"

"Silly child, they are my son's saviors, I will naturally do my best." As she spoke, Madam She placed her hand on Shi Feixuan's fair wrist, carefully examining it. Madam She said, "Although Miss Shi's injuries are serious, with proper treatment, she should be out of danger."

Chapter 138: Women's Strategic Planning, Sensual Rescue of Husband (Part 1)

"Silly child, these two are my son's saviors, I will naturally do my best to help them." As she spoke, Madam She placed her hand on Shi Feixuan's fair wrist, examining it carefully. Madam She said, "Although Miss Shi's injuries are serious, with proper treatment, she should be out of danger."

Hearing Madam She say that Shi Feixuan was out of danger, Yan Yue's worry disappeared, and she hurriedly asked, "What about my husband? Is he in the same situation as my sister?"

Madam She placed her hand on Ye Tianqi's pulse. As time passed, Madam She's expression became increasingly serious, then filled with worry and helplessness. Seeing the changes in Madam She's expression, the hearts of those around her sank. "Grandma, you must save Brother Ye!" Yang Ning cried, clinging to She Taijun's arm. Seeing Ye Tianqi lying in Shi Feixuan's arms like a corpse, Yang Ning felt as if needles were piercing her heart, a piercing pain spreading through her. Seeing She Taijun's face, she couldn't help but weep, crystal tears rolling down her smooth, delicate face, looking incredibly beautiful and pitiful.

Seeing Yang Ning's deep affection, She Taijun knew that the girl had fallen deeply in love with Ye Tianqi. She reached out and wiped away Yang Ning's tears, saying, "Don't cry, girl. Grandma will do everything in her power to save your Brother Ye."

"Let's hurry and carry Father and Third Brother back to the mansion," Kou Nianhe said, her eyes glistening with tears, struggling to hold them back. In the days they had spent with Ye Tianqi, they had come to regard him as their own brother, and seeing him dying naturally filled them with immense grief.

Kou Nianhe carried Ye Tianqi on her back, while Xuan Zhimeng carried Shi Feixuan on her back. Although everyone wondered who this woman, even more beautiful than Shi Feixuan, was, seeing her weeping beside Ye Tianqi, and knowing that Shi Feixuan had previously leaned against her, everyone knew that this woman must have a close relationship with Ye Tianqi. At this moment, no one asked about Zhimeng's identity. The aura emanating from Xuan Zhimeng alone left no room for doubt, because seeing Xuan Zhimeng made it impossible to associate such a beautiful woman with evil.

After the group hurriedly escorted Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan back to their temporary residence, Xiaoyu'er and Fu Yan'er, who had been in the room, were also disturbed. A group of people quickly settled Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan on the bed. Xiaoyu'er fetched water, and Yan Yue gently wiped away the blood from Ye Tianqi's face, tears streaming down her face.

Kou Nianhe, who knew Fu Yan'er, was puzzled by her presence with Ye Tianqi, but seeing the worried look in Fu Yan'er's eyes, she was no longer worried that Fu Yan'er would harm Ye Tianqi, as her expression clearly showed that she had fallen for him.

She Taijun knew she had no immediate way to heal Ye Tianqi's injuries and could only try to revive Shi Feixuan to see if there was anything else she could do.

Everyone withdrew, and She Taijun placed her hand on Shi Feixuan's smooth skin, gently closing her eyes. Using her nearly seventy years of internal energy, she began to heal Shi Feixuan's injuries, gradually clearing the blockages in her meridians. Originally, after Shi Feixuan was injured, Ye Tianqi used his Longevity True Qi to heal her, but when Shi Feixuan saw Ye Tianqi vomit blood, she forcibly used her internal energy, directly causing her meridians to become congested. Now, under She Taijun's profound internal energy, the blockages were finally cleared. Shi Feixuan, who had somehow regained her senses, felt the powerful internal energy emanating from behind her and knew someone was healing her. Although she was worried about Ye Tianqi's injuries, she knew she had to stabilize her own injuries before considering how to treat him. Therefore, she slowly mobilized her remaining internal energy to cooperate with She Taijun in healing her injuries.

After an unknown amount of time, Shi Feixuan suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood. Instantly, she felt the oppressive feeling in her chest disappear. Shi Feixuan knew that the pent-up emotions within her body had dissipated with the expelled blood. She Taijun slowly withdrew her internal energy, and Shi Feixuan circulated her internal energy several more times, temporarily stabilizing her injuries. Unless she could receive nourishment from Ye Tianqi's Longevity True Qi, she could only slowly recover through gradual recuperation.

After finishing her practice and opening her eyes, Shi Feixuan heard She Taijun behind her say, "Miss Shi, your injuries have stabilized and there's nothing seriously wrong. With proper rest, you can recover slowly."

Shi Feixuan stood up and saw that She Taijun's eyes were dull, clearly indicating that she had expended a great deal of energy. So she gracefully bowed to She Taijun and said, "Feixuan thanks you, Madam, for healing my injuries."

She Taijun, being adept at interpersonal relationships, naturally noticed Shi Feixuan's change in expression and knew that Shi Feixuan felt guilty for having exhausted her inner energy. She smiled and said, "It's unbearable. Two days of quiet rest will be enough for me to recover. However, I'm at a loss as to how to treat Tianqi's injuries."

Shi Feixuan picked up the clothes that were placed aside and put them on, saying, "I'll go see my husband's condition now."

The crowd, who had been standing outside the door for a long time, opened their eyes and saw the door open. Shi Feixuan, dressed in white, walked out, looking slightly pale, but it was clear that her injuries had been stabilized.

The women immediately surrounded Shi Feixuan when they saw her emerge, offering their greetings. Shi Feixuan smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have worried you all, I'm fine now."

"Sister, my husband..." Yan Yue said, her eyes glistening.

"Don't worry, my husband is a lucky man, and besides, he's a big bad guy, he wouldn't get into trouble so easily. I'll go see him now," Shi Feixuan comforted her.

The large group, except for Kou and Xu, were all women, as if they had stumbled into a land of fragrant flowers. When Madam She came out of the room and saw a large group of people about to follow Shi Feixuan to see Ye Tianqi, she said, "Everyone, please disperse. Young Master Ye should be out of immediate danger. Let Miss Shi have some time to think of a solution."

Hearing Madam She's words, the Kou and Xu brothers and the Yang sisters withdrew, while Yan Yue, Xuan Zhimeng, Fu Yan'er, and Xiao Yu'er followed them inside. Yang Ning paused briefly before following as well. Madam She saw this but said nothing, turning to the Yang sisters and saying, "Two girls, help your mother back to rest."

The two girls then noticed Madam She's listless expression and quickly went to her side to support her, saying, "Mother, are you alright?"

The Kou and Xu brothers also stepped forward and said, "Thank you so much, Madam, for healing my sister-in-law. We are deeply grateful."

Madam She looked at the two girls and then at her two daughters, smiling, "It's nothing. I had no way to help Young Master Ye with his injuries, which made me very uneasy."

“Madam, there’s no need to blame yourself. Third Brother isn’t destined to die young. I’m sure your wife can find a way to save him

. If… if… then it’s all up to fate. Let’s do our best and leave the rest to destiny,” Kou Nianhe said. “Nephew, there’s no need to be pessimistic. I see a strange power protecting Young Master Ye’s heart in his dantian. Perhaps a miracle will happen. Besides, Miss Shi is so intelligent, she’ll surely find a way to save him. Let’s wait and see.”

Shi Feixuan pushed open the door to Ye Tianqi’s room and saw Ye Tianqi lying on the bed. The bloodstains on his face had been wiped away, his messy hair had been combed, and his blood-stained clothes had been changed. Ye Tianqi’s face was still ashen, and his breathing was faint, as if he might disappear at any moment. If it weren’t for the spiritual connection between Shi Feixuan and Ye Tianqi, one would probably think that Ye Tianqi, lying there like a corpse, was already dead.

Lifting the curtains, Shi Feixuan sat beside Ye Tianqi's bed, gently stroking his face, her eyes filled with a deep, tender affection. "Feixuan will definitely heal my husband. He will accompany me on my travels, laughing and carefree across the world!" she said

. "Sister..."

"Don't disturb Miss Shi, she's checking Young Master Ye's injuries," Fu Yan'er quickly stopped Yan Yue when she saw her speaking.

Although prepared, Shi Feixuan still swayed, a blush spreading across her face. She coughed a few times, almost aggravating her injuries.

Yan Yue quickly supported Shi Feixuan's swaying body, saying with concern, "Sister, you can't be hurt."

"It's alright," Shi Feixuan smiled.

Shi Feixuan thought for a moment and said, "There's no immediate danger to his life. I just examined my husband's injuries; his meridians are damaged, but that's alright. As long as the meridians aren't completely severed, with the nature of the true qi he cultivates, repairing the damaged meridians shouldn't be difficult. It's just..."

Hearing Shi Feixuan's previous words, the women breathed a sigh of relief. However, Shi Feixuan's next words immediately made their hearts jump again. Yan Yue asked nervously, "But what?" Shi Feixuan said, "

But now, my husband's problem isn't with his meridians, but with his dantian. Moreover, his essence, energy, and spirit are severely depleted. Even if he wanted to heal himself, it would be difficult. Furthermore, my inner energy can't even get close to my husband's dantian; as soon as it approaches, it's absorbed into his dantian."

"So, Young Master Ye's inner energy is depleted and needs to be replenished. Why don't we find some high-quality pills for him to take?" Fu Yan'er said.

"No, my husband's body is so weak right now. Mild pills won't have any effect on him, and I'm afraid that if the pills are too strong, he won't be able to handle them. If he were to be subjected to the impact of the medicine, we probably wouldn't even have a chance of survival. I can only sense a strange power in my husband's dantian. It is this energy that is keeping him alive." "But I can't figure out what this strange energy is that my husband possesses. Otherwise, we could have started from that angle," Shi Feixuan said with a gloomy expression.

"I know what that energy is?" A voice as beautiful as heavenly music rang out in the room, and the women slowly turned their gazes to the speaker.

Xuan Zhimeng returned to the Yang residence with the others. Everyone was worried about Shi Feixuan and Ye Tianqi's injuries, so no one asked her about it. She was very familiar with the women around Ye Tianqi, and she had even witnessed Ye Tianqi and Shi Feixuan's intimate moments, but no one knew of her existence. When she heard Shi Feixuan's words, Xuan Zhimeng spoke up.

Chapter 139 Women's Strategic Planning, Sensual Rescue of Husband (Part 2)

Shi Feixuan then remembered that it was Xuan Zhimeng who had suddenly appeared and saved her and Ye Tianqi. Judging from the situation at the time, it seemed that Xuan Zhimeng and Ye Tianqi had a close relationship. However, she hadn't had time to ask Xuan Zhimeng. Now, hearing Xuan Zhimeng speak, she quickly looked at her. Shi Feixuan had always thought her master was the most beautiful woman in the world, but seeing Xuan Zhimeng sitting there, radiating an invisible noble and pure aura, and possessing unparalleled beauty, Shi Feixuan realized that Xuan Zhimeng was actually on par with her master in terms of beauty. She had thought that having a woman like Ye Xin in the world was already a great blessing, but Xuan Zhimeng's appearance was truly a stroke of luck.

"Young lady, Miss Feixuan saved my life. I don't know if you and my husband..." "

Madam, please don't say that. My name is Xuan Zhimeng, and I'm actually your maid. I was saved by you, and if I had known sooner, you wouldn't be injured like this," Xuan Meng knew Feixuan's position by Ye Tianqi's side, so even she didn't dare to be arrogant in front of her.

Although Feixuan didn't know when Ye Tianqi had acquired such a maid, since Xuan Zhimeng had said so, she figured Feixuan wouldn't lie to her. For such a worldly... The peerless woman longed for a little maidservant by her side, and Shi Feixuan truly admired her husband's allure to women. He had secretly taken such a beautiful woman as a maidservant; if Zhimeng hadn't appeared today, she probably wouldn't have known until her death. She glared resentfully at Ye Tianqi lying on the bed.

However, Shi Feixuan wasn't the type to be jealous. Since she was one of her own, and remembering Xuanmeng's claim that she knew what the strange energy in Ye Tianqi's dantian was, she composed herself and said, "In that case, how about I call you 'Sister Zhimeng'?" "

I dare not accept such a title from you, Madam. I am but a lowly maidservant of the young master..." Xuan Zhimeng hurriedly replied.

"You are worthy of it. You saved my husband and my lives today. Let alone calling you 'sister,' even if I were to call you 'elder sister,' I wouldn't hesitate to say it..." Shi Feixuan knew that her husband would never let go of a woman as unparalleled as Xuan Zhimeng. In other words, Xuan Zhimeng would eventually find out that they were addressing each other as sisters. Shi Feixuan didn't say anything more, but instead said, "Sister Zhimeng, you just said that you know what the strange energy in the young master's dantian is. I wonder..."

Xuan Zhimeng said, "One of my natal dantians is in the young master's dantian, so I can clearly sense the situation in the young master's dantian." Upon hearing Xuan

Zhimeng mention her natal Yuan Dan, Shi Feixuan, who had been observing Xuan Zhimeng's unusual entrance, felt a stirring in her heart. She had a general idea of Xuan Zhimeng's background, but since she could tell that Xuan Zhimeng wouldn't harm Ye Tianqi, she didn't pay much attention to her origins. Instead, she listened carefully to Xuan Zhimeng's description of Ye Tianqi's dantian.

Xuan Zhimeng said, "Young Master's dantian was originally like a small universe. There have always been two types of internal energy within it: one completely under your control, and the other, which held absolute dominance and was unusable by you. But later, more..." A surge of energy, and this energy resides at the core of the universe within the young master's dantian, a place brimming with boundless vitality. If the energy within the young master's dantian is primarily for killing and destruction, then the energy at the center of the dantian can be said to be the energy of life. It was this energy that surged forth from the dantian just as the young master's entire microcosm was about to collapse after all his controllable internal energy had completely vanished, maintaining a balance with another energy within the dantian. At this moment, the young master's dantian contained two energies, one yin and one yang, resembling the profound Tai Chi symbol. This is why the lady's internal energy was drawn into the dantian as soon as it approached. Xuan Zhimeng's eloquent speech left the women in the room somewhat bewildered. Even Fu Yan'er, whose martial arts skills were not much weaker than Shi Feixuan's, was completely confused. However, Shi Feixuan nodded repeatedly, seemingly quite certain of Xuan Zhimeng's words.

In fact, Shi Feixuan had been cultivating with Ye Tianqi and was very familiar with the strange phenomena in Ye Tianqi's dantian. If it weren't for the fact that so much energy was unusable, she wouldn't be there to accompany Ye Tianqi in his daily training. The scene Xuan Zhimeng described was exactly what Ye Tianqi was doing. Shi Feixuan asked, "In that case, Sister Zhimeng, do you know where this powerful life force comes from? Could it be from your husband's cultivation of the Longevity Technique?"

Xuan Zhimeng replied, "I don't understand the mysteries of martial arts very well, and I'm not entirely sure if that energy comes from the so-called Longevity Technique. However, I have noticed that whenever the young master and his wife engage in marital relations, a powerful life force is injected into the young master's dantian..." Shi

Feixuan's face flushed crimson, the blush making her pale complexion appear more attractive. She hadn't expected Xuan Zhimeng to speak of her and Ye Tianqi's intimate moments so readily, especially in front of so many people. Although these women were likely her own sisters, Shi Feixuan still felt incredibly shy. Shi Feixuan was unaware that Xuan Zhimeng was largely unfamiliar with social etiquette; using the term "sexual relations" to describe their intimate moments was something Xuan Zhimeng had gradually learned. Otherwise, she wouldn't know how to describe their relationship!

The other women, hearing Xuan Zhimeng's words, also blushed slightly. They were surprised to see Shi Feixuan's shy demeanor, as she usually maintained a calm and composed expression; seeing her like this was a rare sight.

Shi Feixuan felt the women's gazes on her, but she ignored them, her heart filled with joy. Hearing Xuan Zhimeng's words, Shi Feixuan suddenly thought of a possible way to save Ye Tianqi. A solution. According to Xuan Zhimeng, Ye Tianqi's dantian can be seen as two energies locked in a stalemate. If the vital energy is strong enough, it can suppress the other energy, thus igniting Ye Tianqi's life force and awakening him from his unconsciousness. To help strengthen the vital energy within Ye Tianqi, Shi Feixuan thought of the dual cultivation method. The saying goes, "When chaos first opens, yin and yang appear; vital energy is chaos itself." The most direct and convenient way to restore yin and yang to chaos is through dual cultivation. When both reach the peak of life, the two energies will collide and generate vital energy, and life begins at that moment.

Shi Feixuan had made up her mind. Looking around the room, she saw that everyone except Fu Yan'er had a significant connection to Ye Tianqi. She realized that relying solely on herself wouldn't be effective, as she had lost her true yin, and dual cultivation was best practiced alone. Shi Feixuan said to Fu Yan'er, "Sister Fu, could you please excuse me for a moment? I have something to discuss with the other sisters." Fu

Yan'er glanced at the women in the room. These women all had various connections with Ye Tianqi, and Shi Feixuan had asked her to leave, clearly indicating that she wasn't going to be with these women. For some reason, Fu Yan'er felt a pang of disappointment. Why could these women stay while she was the one to leave? However, despite her inner turmoil, Fu Yan'er's expression remained unchanged, and she said with a smile, "Since that's the case, I'll go meditate and recover from my injuries first. If there's anything I can do to help, please feel free to ask. I was saved by you, so there's no need to be polite."

Hearing Fu Yan'er's words, Shi Feixuan almost kept her there. However, Shi Feixuan knew Fu Yan'er's character; if she asked her to give her virginity to her husband, Fu Yan'er would probably refuse no matter what. Even if her husband was attractive to women, Fu Yan'er, being from the Demonic Sect, could never fall in love with Ye Tianqi. Keeping her there would be futile and would only displease Fu Yan'er. These thoughts flashed through her mind. Just then, Fu Yan'er stood up, and Shi Feixuan quickly rose to see her off.

After Fu Yan'er left, Shi Feixuan closed the door and looked at the remaining women in the room: Yan Yue, Xiao Yu'er, Yang Ning, and Xuan Zhimeng. She and Yan Yue couldn't be the main force in this dual cultivation; they could only assist from a higher position. Xiao Yu'er's true yin might be somewhat lacking, but Yang Ning and Xuan Zhimeng were definitely rich in true yin. If she wasn't mistaken, Xuan Zhimeng's true yin might not even be comparable to hers when she was still virgin.

The girls didn't understand why Shi Feixuan wanted Fu Yan'er to leave. Was she trying to keep an eye on Fu Yan'er? However, Shi Feixuan was the woman Ye Tianqi loved most, and the only one who could offer them hope for saving him. Therefore, they didn't question her words.

Seeing the girls looking at her expectantly, Shi Feixuan's gaze swept over their faces. She spoke, "I just thought of a way that might save my husband, but..."

"Really? Sister, what is it? If you need us sisters, please tell us. We sisters will not refuse!" Yan Yue's face flashed with excitement as she spoke eagerly. The other girls nodded in agreement, even Yang Ning referring to herself as Ye Tianqi's woman.

In fact, when Yang Ning entered the room and She Taijun didn't stop her, Yang Ning knew that the matriarch, who held the most authority in the family, had already tacitly approved of her relationship with Ye Tianqi. Even though she and Ye Tianqi hadn't confessed their feelings to each other, Yang Ning could sense Ye Tianqi's affection for her, so there were no obstacles between them. And when Shi Feixuan asked Fu Yan'er to leave, Yang Ning knew that as Ye Tianqi's wife, Shi Feixuan had already shown through her actions that she had accepted her as Ye Tianqi's woman.

Shi Feixuan paused for a moment and said, "If you all see your husbands as your future refuge, then my method will work. Otherwise, you can leave this room now, because this method requires you to sacrifice your chastity and use the dual cultivation method to ignite your husbands' life force."

The women blushed, especially Xiaoyu'er and Yang Ning, who were still virgins. Xuan Zhimeng wasn't very familiar with worldly etiquette, but she knew about the dual cultivation method since ancient times. So, despite her shyness, she nodded firmly after hearing Shi Feixuan's words. Ye Tianqi had saved her life from the jaws of death and, by chance, had allowed her to take human form hundreds of years earlier. He had given her a name, which was like a second life. Moreover, she and Ye Tianqi were already bound by life and death; in her heart, she had long regarded Ye Tianqi as her husband and master.

Although shy, with Xuan Zhimeng nodding, the women all nodded in agreement with Shi Feixuan's method.

Shi Feixuan nodded with relief and said, "Thank you, sisters. My husband's life depends on us. The method of dual cultivation sounds simple, but it is extremely profound. We are all martial arts practitioners, so we naturally know about true yang and true yin. The method of dual cultivation is to take the vigorous vitality generated when a person reaches the peak of their life and use it for our own benefit. If used correctly, it can allow both husband and wife to enjoy the pleasures of the bedroom and benefit their body and mind. However, if used improperly, it will harm both oneself and others and be despised by others. The longevity secret technique that my husband cultivates includes the way of dual cultivation. It should be very simple for you. Just forget everything and let yourself reach the peak of your life and completely release your true yin." Shi Feixuan never thought that one day she would have to explain such shameful things to these people, but in order to have the best chance of curing Ye Tianqi, Shi Feixuan no longer cared about being shy.

Yang Ning listened as Shi Feixuan recounted embarrassing stories to her. These were things her mother, sister-in-law, or aunt should have told her the night before her wedding. Looking at Ye Tianqi lying motionless on the bed, Yang Ning was captivated.

"Where am I?..." When Ye Tianqi regained consciousness, he suddenly realized he seemed to be floating in the void of space. However, the universe before him didn't seem peaceful. Vast, glittering stars were exploding and disappearing one by one. The aftershocks of the explosion of a star near him shattered several surrounding stars, turning them into suspended objects in space.

Yet, the seemingly tangible energy waves from the explosions passed through his body without him feeling a thing. How could this be? Was he already dead? But where was he? Wasn't he unconscious in Feixuan's arms? How did he end up here? A series of questions arose in Ye Tianqi's mind. He stared at the stars in the universe before him, which seemed to have been stimulated by something, like a cosmic cataclysm, exploding and releasing countless rays of light.
