A crescent moon hung far above the branches, and the drizzle crackled on the eaves.
In the inn's room, in front of the window, Ye Anping looked at the sparse stars in the sky with his hands behind his back, feeling that this was probably the calm before the storm.
The matter of the ***Imperial*** Sect was originally a game between Si Xuanji and the Emperor of the **Central Region**.
Since he was only in the *Foundation Building* stage, he naturally did not have the ability to participate in the game between the two *Void Returning* cultivators.
All he could do was help Si Xuanji gain the upper hand.
This time, he was no longer a chess player, but a chess piece of Si Xuanji. A chess piece placed in a key position for helping in the **Central Region** Emperor's fall.
By the time Liang Zhu took Su Waner back to **Heavenly Gate City**, the first piece of the chess game had been moved.
After this, they wouldn't have any more time to recuperate, and the **First Spring Town** right now was probably the last place where they could enjoy a little peace and tranquility.
"Sigh--"
Ye Anping closed the window and thought about going back to bed and lying down for a while. However, as soon as he extinguished the oil lamp in the room, Feng Yu Die's painful yelps came from the next room.
"Hiss -- Ay ay ay!!!"
"..."
Ye Anping, who didn't intend to pay attention to her, lay down on the bed, ready to take out the earplugs and fall asleep when Xiao Tian flew straight through the wall and clung to his face. *"Anping, go and help Yu Die apply the medicine. She hurt her lower back and can't reach over there. There is a big lump on her waist. Don't you want to rub her lump?"*
?
"No."
*"Then, can you give her a physiotherapy session and help her smooth her meridians? I think there are quite a lot of obstructions in her meridians..."*
"..."
Ye Anping actually didn't want to go, but the next moment, Feng Yu Die's mournful howl came from the next room again.
After a moment of hesitation, he sighed. "Well, I guess it's time to see how well she has mastered the *Black Moon* technique."
After saying this, Ye Anping got up from the bed, walked out, and went to the next door. After knocking lightly twice, he opened the door and entered without waiting for Feng Yu Die to answer.

She was holding a medicine bottle and cotton ball in her hand, trying to wipe a huge swelling on her back in an extremely awkward posture.
When Ye Anping entered the door, his eyes unconsciously landed on the white silk band on Feng Yu Die's chest, but he immediately reacted. This was not good.
With his understanding of Feng Yu Die, she would take out the sword without a word and directly launch it at his eyeballs.
So Ye Anping hastily turned his head to dodge.
However, it seemed that he had misjudged it.
Feng Yu Die did not launch any sword toward his head. Instead, after seeing him coming in, she took the initiative to greet him. "Young Master Ye, is it you? Just in time! Come and help me apply the ointment. This position is out of my reach."
Saying this, Feng Yu Die directly plopped down on the bed, turning her head and motioning for him to come over quickly and apply the medicine for her.
"..."
Ye Anping paused for two breaths at the doorway, feeling slightly surprised that Feng Yu Die didn't throw a sword toward him, but he quickly came back to his senses, closed the door, and walked up to the bedside.
"You only wear a silk band and don't lock your room door?"
"Huh?" Feng Yu Die was stunned, turned to look at the door, and said, "I forgot..."
Ye Anping frowned. "You forgot...?"
"Well, that... I figured nothing would happen to me anyway if you were here."
Feng Yu Die smiled and tied up her long silver hair on the back of her head and placed it by her face, revealing her clean and white back that seemed ready for some fire cupping.
"Well, enough talking. Help me apply the medicine."
"..."
Ye Anping looked away, hesitating for a while. Then, he picked up the small medicine bottle and cotton ball, sat down on the edge of the bed, and applied the ointment on her bruised lower back.
"Hiss--"
"Bear with it."
Ye Anping applied the salve to Feng Yu Die's back as she swung her legs back and forth. Wondering why she was so happy, he asked, "I saw you wearing only a silk band, aren't you upset?"
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})"..."
Hearing this question, Feng Yu Die glanced at her silk band and suddenly had a light-bulb moment.
That's right!
Why didn't she draw her sword and strike at Ye Anping just now?
If this happened before, she would definitely have killed the person who broke into her bedroom regardless of the situation.
Feng Yu Die was silent for a while, then suddenly nodded with a profound look. "Well... probably because after spending a long time with you, I feel more and more that you're not like a man, right? Hee hee~~"
"... What are you laughing for?"
?
Ye Anping's eyes twitched, and he pressed hard on her waist.
The next moment, Feng Yu Die's eyes widened, and she bit her quilt in pain.
"Ouch!! Young Master Ye! Hiss---..."
"Sorry, I used a little too much strength, hehe~~"
"..."
Ye Anping rolled his eyes at her, and after applying the medicine, he made a sword finger, slid it up and down along Feng Yu Die's spine, and lightly poked her lumbar vertebra.
"Hey... what are you doing?!"
"Helping you arrange the meridians, and also to see how you are doing with the *Black Moon Routine*? This technique can open the spine channel and you can feel that by touching it."
Feng Yu Die's cheeks were a little flushed. She turned to look at Ye Anping, whose hand was on her back and puckered her lips. "This feels so weird..."
"It's just a little itchy. Bear with it."
"Oh... Yiii~~"
"Don't scream."
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})"Woo..."
Feng Yu Die's cheeks were getting redder and redder. She pursed her lips tightly and turned her head from time to time to look at Ye Anping, who was concentrating on helping her smooth out her meridians. After thinking for a while, she asked, "Young Master Ye..."
"What?"
"You dote on Sister Pei, right?"
When Ye Anping heard this, his fingers suddenly stopped and he narrowed his eyes, feeling that she was going to say something next that would leave him speechless again, so he simply didn't answer.
"..."
Seeing that he kept silent, Feng Yu Die frowned. "Just admit you dote on Sister Pei!!"
Ye Anping nodded slightly and said, "Isn't it obvious? Why are you asking me?"
"Then, if Sister Pei likes me, you must let her marry me. Otherwise, she will be sad."
?
"Since when does my sister like you?"
"Humph~~" Feng Yu Die pursed her cat lips proudly. "Sister Pei called me so affectionately today, which means that she has noticed me."
"She called you affectionately?"
"She called me 'Second Idiot'!"
"..."
Sure enough, Ye Anping's words were once again choked by this rascal. He opened his mouth, then sighed and tripled the strength in his fingers.
For a while, the room was full of roars.
"Ouch!! You just have a private vendetta!!"
"... Heh."
"I will never give up on Sister Pei! Wooaah~~~"
