Chapter 80 - Preparing for The Foundation Building

The streets of the marketplace were abuzz with people. Casual cultivators were everywhere, as well as Chamber of Commerce vehicles and horses coming here to do business.

Returning to the market, Ye Anping walked the streets as he recalled Si Xuanji's words.

Si Xuanji said that he was now climbing on the golden dragon Feng Yu Die.

This sentence was actually not difficult to understand. It was roughly like the rat climbing on the back of the ox during the zodiac race. The rat, which was originally powerless, gained the ability to compete with the other eleven zodiac signs by clinging to the back of the ox.

And this ability should refer to the cultivator's luck.Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com

Ye Anping was not a particularly superstitious person. His atheistic education in his previous life was deeply ingrained. Even though he had lived in this world for more than ten years, he had never believed in things like fate and luck.

However, come to think of it, he and his sister basically had so many opportunities thanks to Feng Yu Die.

If the Grand Master of the Magical Poison Sect hadn't been injured by Feng Yu Die with the Holy Emperor Dragon Body, he and his sister would have had almost no chance of winning, and the fragment of the 'Black Moon Routine' would not have fallen into his hands.

If it weren't for Feng Yu Die, his sister would not have entered the Black Star Sect and met Xiao Yunluo. And if she had not met Xiao Yunluo, Si Xuanji would not have paid attention to him.

And most importantly, Si Xuanji said that his sudden breakthrough in cultivation was also related to Feng Yu Die.

Ye Anping initially did not want to have much contact with Feng Yu Die. He thought that after a while, he would take his sister away and find a place to settle down and practice in peace.

But Si Xuanji might have seen his intention of "keeping to himself".

Her words, "If she dies, you will just fall into another pool," sounded like she was trying to warn him that if he cut off his connection with Feng Yu Die, he would only fall into a more dangerous and unknown situation.

Ye Anping had to admit that Si Xuanji's words made sense.

By staying by Feng Yu Die's side, he would be able to know in advance who he would meet and prepare for it.

But once he left her, he had no way of predicting what he would encounter in the future.

Thinking of this, Ye Anping suddenly felt like Feng Yu Die had become his 'boss', even though he and his sister were the ones who benefited the most.

He shrugged, raised his head to look at the auction house sign in front of him, and breathed a sigh of relief. "Anyway, let's get ready for the Foundation Building first."

Then, he stepped over the threshold and walked in.

"Boss, do you have the Burying Sand Bones, Morning and Evening Dew, Vermilion Fruit, Jade Dragon Salve, and Sun Warming Jade? Two sets of each..." Ye Anping hesitated for a while. "Well, forget it, three sets."

After listening to his request, the shopkeeper asked with a smile. "Little brother, are you preparing for Foundation Building? Do you want Foundation Building pills? I just got a batch of it. They are of good quality, take a look."

"Well... let's see, the quality is pretty good. Then, give me three bottles as well."

"Okay, these cost 12,500 spirit stones, and the three sets total 37,500."

Ye Anping thought for a while, and then tentatively said, "I am the owner of Ye's Physiotherapy Center over on East Street. Since we are both business owners and we will meet frequently in the future, how about a discount?"

"Oh? So you are that Young Master Ye. Sister Bai of the Black Star Sect told me about you." The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows and tapped the abacus. "In this case, I will give you a 20% discount. How about ten thousand for a set?"

With an angry roar, Xiao Yunluo swung the sword in her hand again, cutting a nearby viewing stone in two, and then gasped heavily.

"Hoo-ha...hoo-ha...hu-"

After panting for a while, Xiao Yunluo closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then suppressed the feelings of anger and love in her heart.

Also at this moment, the shadow of a sword crossed the sky. Xiao Yunluo looked up and saw Pei Lianxue, who seemed to have returned from outside. She was wearing a red scarf around her neck and looked quite happy.

After a while, she realized something.

It seemed that in the past two months, Pei Lianxue could be seen flying back from outside every few days in the morning.

At first, Xiao Yunluo didn't think much of it, thinking that maybe Pei Lianxue got up early and went to the main peak to buy things.

However...

No one was selling scarves on the main peak.

And she had never seen Pei Lianxue wearing a scarf before.

"..."

After hesitating for a while, Xiao Yunluo hurriedly followed, and as she arrived in front of Feng Yu Die's house, Pei Lianxue also happened to land in the courtyard with her sword.

"Lianxue!"

"Ah?!" Pei Lianxue seemed to be startled by her. She trembled and looked at her in panic. "Yun...Yunluo? What's wrong? Why did you come here so early..."

Xiao Yunluo walked up, looked at the red scarf around her neck, and asked, "Where did you get this scarf?"

"This... my brother knitted it for me. It's very soft." Pei Lianxue said happily and then handed the corner of the scarf over to Xiao Yunluo. "Want to touch it?"

Xiao Yunluo was stunned for a moment and then asked, "Your brother knitted it? When did he give it to you?"

"Just now..."

"Did you go see your brother so early in the morning?"

"Ah..." Pei Lianxue was taken aback and blushed. After hesitating for a while, since it was Xiao Yunluo, she simply told the truth. "Yunluo, actually... I stayed at my brother's place last night."

"..."

"Hehe... Two months ago, my brother asked me to go over and sleep with him every two days."

Xiao Yunluo was surprised, but at the same time, she suddenly felt a sourness in her heart.

"You... sleep together? How is that possible!!"

"Hmm..." Pei Lianxue nodded and replied shyly. "Yunluo, you're the only one I'm telling this to. In fact, I've been in the 'bridal chamber' with my brother for two months."

"...What?!!"
