Time Travel: I'm a Flower Thief

After embracing for a moment, Hua Suwen's cheeks flushed slightly, and she gently stepped back half a step from his embrace.

She lowered her head and straightened her slightly disheveled clothes, her voice still carrying a hint of softness: "Still the same as before, you like to do whatever you want!"

"Senior sister, you're wronging me. I'm a sentimental person, and I've always had a special fondness for certain places, lingering there for a long time."

Hua Suwen frowned—

As expected, nothing has changed.

Just now, when he was talking to me and my senior brother about treating Mu Pingting's illness, he was very serious and composed...

In the blink of an eye, that unserious look reappeared.

She glanced down at her chest, and fearing Xie Xiaoyi might steer the conversation elsewhere, she quickly changed the subject:

"By the way, junior brother, how do you plan to rescue Sister Mu Pingting?"

Xie Xiaoyi was indeed led astray and started talking about healing and saving lives: "The medicine I'm going to prescribe is neither for internal use nor for external application."

This is absolutely unbelievable!

Hua Suwen paused slightly, her delicate brows furrowing: "Neither taken internally nor applied externally... how then will the medicine enter the body?"

Xie Xiaoyi smiled faintly: "That's a story for later. Senior sister, please keep an eye on those pottery jars I put in the corner."

Don't open it. Also, please take good care of Sister Mu with your senior brother these next few days. I have something to do now!

Hua Suwen was lost in thought about the treatment method when she casually hummed in agreement, "Alright, go ahead!"

"Thank you for your trouble, Senior Sister!"

"Hey, don't go yet! Can you tell me where you're going?"

"I'm going to learn a martial art!"

Before Hua Suwen could ask any more questions, Xie Xiaoyi suddenly lowered his head and gave her a hard kiss on the lips.

Heavy and domineering, as fierce as a northwest wind.

Hua Suwen froze on the spot, her eyes wide open, the domineering warmth still lingering on her lips, and her breathing became rapid.

It wasn't until Xie Xiaoyi quickly bid farewell to Hua Lingshu, stepped on his sword and soared into the sky, the sword light heading straight for Fuyu Mountain in the East Sea, that she suddenly came back to her senses.

......

Xie Xiaoyi's trip was to return to Wanghailu to seek Xie Lingyun's advice on the method of internal energy circulation.

This parallel ancient era lacked both petri dishes and sterile containers, let alone sophisticated instruments for purification, analysis, and temperature control...

But it also has things that modern times don't have—

Those are various internal skills and true qi.

Since the Penicillium mold is not afraid of cold but is afraid of heat.

Perhaps by using extremely cold true energy, it can be successfully refined.

He could make the air warm, but he was powerless to make it cold.

Xie Xiaoyi wanted to find out the details—

If one's internal energy possesses the nature of extreme yang, how can one cultivate the nature of extreme yin?

......

When I returned under the moonlight, I saw my sword fall on Floating Jade Mountain and looked out over the sea to the pavilion, but it was already late at night and all was quiet.

As soon as Xie Xiaoyi landed, a stunning figure in dark ink swept up to him like the wind.

The visitor was Xie Lingyun.

When she saw Xie Xiaoyi return, she went straight up to him and gently hugged him.

"You're back! So soon?"

Xie Xiaoyi wrapped his arms around her, and after a warm embrace, he loosened his grip slightly: "Auntie, there's something I need your help with."

Xie Lingyun looked at him and asked softly, "You and I have already done that, what are you asking for? What is it? Just tell me."

It's already like that?

Xie Xiaoyi felt a surge of joy; her aunt could be quite adorable sometimes!

He couldn't help but smile, and that smile somehow washed away some of the gloom that had plagued him all day.

The two returned to the main room and sat down. Xie Xiaoyi didn't hold back and immediately asked:

"Aunt, I need an internal energy cultivation method that is extremely yin and cold, one that can condense icy true energy, and preferably one that can control its temperature."

Xie Lingyun glanced at him sideways and said softly:

"This is a bit difficult for people below the ninth rank, unless they are born with the ability to cultivate Yin True Qi. However, it is easier for people in the upper five realms."

Xie Xiaoyi was overjoyed: "Auntie, tell me quickly! I've already reached the Starry Sky Profound Realm, I want to learn faster!"

Xie Lingyun stood up, smiled gently, and lightly touched his dantian with his fingertips: "When mortals circulate their energy, they only know to follow the yang meridians, so their bodies are naturally blazing."

You men are inherently of the yang constitution, unlike women who are more yin. If you want to cultivate the yin and coldest true qi, you need to change your breathing path.

Xie Xiaoyi held his breath and focused intently: "Please teach me, Auntie!"

"Listen carefully," Xie Lingyun began to explain slowly to him.

"When practicing Qi circulation, it starts from the Dantian and travels along the Du Meridian, the Hand Yangming Meridian, and the Foot Taiyang Meridian. The Qi is as fierce as fire, which is the power of Yang."

To condense cold: start from the dantian, first enter the Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian - the kidney governs water, water governs cold, this is the root of cold.

Then, turn the hand along the Taiyin Lung Meridian. The lungs govern the killing and eliminating, and the cool air generates mist, which is the form of cold. Finally, follow the Ren Meridian back to the Dantian, where the Yin cold is drawn inward, and the feeling of ice arises naturally.

The three Yang energies temporarily cease, while the three Yin energies flow smoothly. Maintain a calm and cool mind, neither agitated nor intense; in an instant, the palms will feel cold, and frost will form upon touch.

After all,

A thin wisp of frost had formed on Xie Lingyun's fingertips, which he gently pressed against Xie Xiaoyi's brow.

A slightly cool touch settled, and a wisp of chill crept into her brow, carrying her unique aura.

Xie Xiaoyi was overjoyed and closed his eyes as instructed, slowly circulating his qi along that route.

In just a few breaths, a cool aura actually arose in his dantian, flowing slowly along the three yin meridians. Wherever it passed, the heat disappeared and a refreshing coolness arose.

He suddenly opened his eyes and raised his palm.

A wisp of pale white mist slowly rose from my palm, icy to the touch, and the surrounding air seemed to grow colder.

"It's done..."

Xie Lingyun gazed at him, her eyes filled with doting affection and tenderness, and gently brushed a strand of his hair aside: "Exceptionally gifted, truly extraordinary!"

Xie Xiaoyi was overjoyed and momentarily carried away with his pride: "Of course! Don't you know who I am?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden surge of cold air rushed through his body, and he felt a chill run through him. He instinctively hugged himself tightly, and his teeth chattered slightly.

Xie Lingyun looked at him and shook his head slightly, his tone tinged with helplessness: "It's a pity he's still immature and lacks maturity!"

Xie Xiaoyi looked at Xie Lingyun, puzzled, and asked, "Aunt, what...what is the reason for this?"

Xie Lingyun glanced at him indifferently: "When you were carried away with your pride, the icy true energy in your body dispersed everywhere, which is why you were invaded by the cold air."

As he spoke, he gently lifted his finger, and a wisp of gentle, continuous true energy slowly flowed into Xie Xiaoyi's body.

The chill around Xie Xiaoyi dissipated almost completely in an instant, and he felt relaxed and indescribably comfortable.

Seeing that his expression had calmed down a bit, Xie Lingyun asked again, "How did you get back so quickly? As for Fu Yaoqin... is she alright?"

Upon hearing the name "Fu Yaoqin," Xie Xiaoyi fell silent instantly, his eyes surging with unspeakable grief and resentment.

He remained silent for a long time before telling Xie Lingyun everything he had seen and heard.

Xie Lingyun listened quietly, the gentleness on his face gradually fading, and he couldn't help but sigh:

"So, you learned this extreme cold true energy to save Mu Pingting?"
