Chapter 74: Unexpected Opportunity

At night, the market streets were crowded with people, and idle cultivators were gathering for a drink at restaurants and bars.

Ye Anping walked slowly in case Si Xuanji's short legs could not keep up with him so they walked for quite a while. The two came to a high-rise pavilion with no one around and sat down.

As this was the highest point, it offered a panoramic view of the entire city and even beyond the outer fence. Up here, the city had an ancient charm that shone brightly at night.

Si Xuanji looked at the skyline with her yin and yang eyes and then at Ye Anping, who was sitting next to her. Her gaze was partly satisfied, partly gentle. "Master Ye, the scenery here is quite nice."

After walking with Si Xuanji for almost half an hour, Ye Anping was a bit tired and didn't want to spend more time here with her, so he got straight to the point and asked, "Miss Xuanji, you don't just want me to accompany you around the market, do you?"

Si Xuanji saw that he seemed to be bored and whined. "Master Ye, do you think I have other purposes?"

"That's what my gut feeling tells me."

Si Xuanji shook her head and almost complained that young people were really impatient, but she didn't want to reveal her identity, so she only said, "Then, I will be straightforward. There are two things I want to talk to you about, Mr. Ye."

"Well... Miss Xuanji, please tell me."

"The first thing is about your cultivation methods and mental techniques."

At this moment, the parrot, who was standing on her shoulder, interrupted with a shriek. *"Too much yang energy!! Too much yang energy!!"*

Naturally, after receiving a stern glance from Si Xuanji, it immediately closed its beak, lowered its head, and pretended to preen its feathers.

Si Xuanji changed back to her gentle eyes and looked at Ye Anping, adding, "Master Ye, I don't know who taught you this method. The combination of the ***Yang River*** Sect's meditation method and the *Nine Elements of Heart* secret technique is indeed very good, but both are extremely yang exercises. On top of that, you are a man, and these three yangs amass together and go against the yin and yang harmony that the practice is supposed to bring."

Of course, Ye Anping remembered this, but who knew there was a special "debuff" in this world? So, he replied, "Elder Wang told me once about this matter, so you shouldn't worry, Miss Xuanji."

Si Xuanji tilted her head slightly. "Did Elder Wang tell you the solution as well?"

The parrot immediately chimed in. *"Marry a wife and keep a concubine!! Marry a wife and keep a concubine!!"*

Si Xuanji gritted her teeth, but after all, she couldn't lose the gentle image she had just established in front of Ye Anping, so she just glared at the parrot again.

Ye Anping looked at the parrot wordlessly, nodded, and said, "He told me..."

"Then, how come I don't see you preparing for it, Mr. Ye?"

"Miss Xuanji, when I went from the third to the fifth level of *Qi Refining*, I also encountered an excess of yang energy, but by condensing qi, I should be able to dissipate that excess. At least until I reach the *Foundation Building*..."

Si Xuanji shook her head to deny what he said, then narrowed her yin and yang eyes and interrupted gravely. "Master Ye, if there is a next time, your meridians will be shattered."

If someone else said this, Ye Anping wouldn't care too much, but since Si Xuanji was the one who said it, he really had to consider it seriously.

He frowned. "Really?"

"Why would I deceive you for no reason?" Si Xuanji shrugged and said, "The second thing is also related to this."

"...Please say it."

"Master Ye, you don't have a cultivation partner yet, right?"

Ye Anping was slightly startled. Somehow, he felt he was being tricked into something, but he still nodded and motioned for her to continue.

"Err..."

"It just so happens that my elder sister is not married and she is about your age..."

Could the sister she was referring to be Xiao Yunluo? ... Ye Anping asked with a frown, "May I ask who your sister is?"

"You just saw her today. She is Xiao Yunluo." Si Xuanji smiled. "My little parrot told me that you two have a good relationship, so I wanted to meet you."

Ye Anping took a deep breath and said, "Miss Xuanji means..."

Si Xuanji took out a jade pendant from her sleeve and handed it to Ye Anping, saying, "If you agree, just go to her with this jade pendant... she will understand."

Did this mean that Xiao Yunluo was betrothed to him?

"Hiss--"

This move was completely beyond Ye Anping's expectations.

He knew that he was now replacing Feng Yu Die in the plot, but in the game, Si Xuanji was "entrusting" Xiao Yunluo to Feng Yu Die.

How did it become "betrothed" in his case?

Could it be because he is a man?

He was ready to accept Si Xuanji's entrustment, get the opportunity that originally belonged to Feng Yu Die, and then hand over this "entrustment" back to her.

But now, how to hand over the betrothal?

First day at the altar, next day hand over the divorce notice, then pack up and run?

"..."

Seeing that he was silent, Si Xuanji felt a little confused. She was wondering if it was possible that he didn't want to form a cultivation couple with Xiao Yunluo, but then, why would he do such a thing at noon today?

She had seen Ye Anping before, and the more she saw him, the better he looked.

"Of course, the matter of the cultivation couple is not to be rushed, so if your situation is really urgent, you can first come to the ***Black Star*** Sect's **Moon Spring Peak** to find me. I am willing to help you suppress these three yangs temporarily. Just say the name 'Xuanji,' and the disciple guarding the mountain will lead you to me."

"?"

Ye Anping frowned. "Huh?"

"I really like you, Mr. Ye. It's like we hit it off or fell in love at first sight." Si Xuanji smiled. "But for some reason, I apologize that I can't become a cultivation couple with you. What a pity."

*That means she wants me to prostitute for free*... Ye Anping didn't dare to speak.

Then, Si Xuanji put the jade pendant in his hand, stood up, and cupped her hands.

"It's getting late. Mr. Ye, you should rest early, so I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, Si Xuanji jumped off the fence and summoned her flying sword. Then, she flew off in the direction of the sect's main peak.

After seeing Si Xuanji leave, Ye Anping stood still for a long time before looking down at the jade pendant in his hand. It was white in color and shaped like half a yin and yang fish.

In the game, when Si Xuanji entrusted Xiao Yunluo to Feng Yu Die, she gave her half of this jade pendant, which matched the half that Xiao Yunluo had, and also gave her a fine spiritual sword.

Originally, he was prepared to obtain the spiritual sword too. No matter if it was him or his sister who used it, it would be excellent.

However, it seemed that because the partner was not Feng Yu Die, Si Xuanji did not give him this opportunity but instead gave him the opportunity to "go to the ***Black Star*** Sect to find her at any time."

This opportunity might seem small, but it really wasn't.

No matter what, Si Xuanji was a *Void Returning* cultivator, which in the **Zhouxing Heavenly Realm** would be like, "If she wants to use you, that's your honor."

No wonder Si Xuanji pretended to be an inner sect disciple in the early stages of *Foundation Building* to meet him.

There was also the issue of "excess yang energy".

He now suspected that Si Xuanji had deliberately exaggerated the matter to scare him.

However, he couldn't afford not to believe it. If he didn't believe it, it might even cost his life.

What's more, he had already experienced the feeling of "excessive yang" last time, which was similar to a high fever and might actually jeopardize his longevity.

"Whew..."

Ye Anping let out a breath and put the jade pendant into his storage bag. After thinking for a while, he finally made up his mind. "It seems that this matter cannot be postponed any longer. It is still too early to deal with the cultivation couple matter. Let's talk to my sister tomorrow, and if she doesn't agree, I will probably have to go to her. Tch, changing the cultivation method will have to be done after the *Core Formation* at the latest..."
