Wandering Sword Seller's Life in the Qin Dynasty

Well, all of the above are speculations made by Xu Qing based on his understanding of the Yin-Yang School and the details revealed in the original work, and are not guaranteed to be true.

In any case, Shao Siming Bai successfully helped Xu Qing vent his anger, and now Xu Qing has also learned what he wanted to know from her.

He has never been one to discard someone after they have served their purpose.

He didn't care about other places, but here he did take some responsibility.

He found another maid, but there was no way to vent his anger. Instead, he had the maid take care of Shao Siming Bai and help her with her affairs.

He wasn't worried that Shao Siming Bai would resist and escape after waking up.

The Zhu family's "Three Hearts, Two Minds" acupoint striking technique was quite effective, enough to keep Shao Siming Bai a weak woman with no strength to even kill a chicken for a long time.

"I heard you've taken a fancy to a maid?"

In Hou Sheng's residence, it was very difficult to keep news secret.

Not long after, Hou Sheng looked at Xu Qing and started teasing him about the matter.

Xu Qing didn't hide anything, "That's right."

"She has just entered the household and looks beautiful and charming."

Hou Sheng laughed and said, "It seems that Mr. Qing is not the kind of person who can remain unmoved by a woman in his arms. I thought Mr. Qing was not interested in beautiful women."

"How could I not be interested?" Xu Qing looked at Hou Sheng, a hint of anticipation in his eyes. "Is the Prime Minister suddenly bringing this up because he's planning to reward me with a beauty?"

"Sir, you may take any of these maids you fancy! As for the young ladies from noble families outside, as long as you say the word, I will send someone to negotiate with them, and I guarantee you will be satisfied!" Hou Sheng patted his chest and said to Xu Qing.

A hint of a smile flashed in Xu Qing's eyes: "Thank you very much, Prime Minister."

Hou Sheng immediately leaned closer, lowering his voice slightly, with a hint of urgency: "These are all minor matters, it's just that I don't know about Mr. Qing's medicine..."

"I still have some left, I'll personally deliver them to the Prime Minister later!" Xu Qing understood Hou Sheng's meaning and quickly said.

Just as Emperor Yan Xiao Yan first refined "aphrodisiacs" after becoming an alchemist, Xu Qing also refined some special pills after studying alchemy.

However, it's not an aphrodisiac, but a small pill that can make a muscular man even more muscular and a greyhound into a wolf warrior.

Also, because Hou Sheng was old and very weak.

Xu Qing decisively chose him as the subject of drug testing.

It seems that Xu Qing has quite a talent for alchemy. The fact that Hou Sheng continues to ask Xu Qing for pills shows that Xu Qing's pills are very effective.

This gave Xu Qing a sense of confidence.

As for why he didn't know the effects of the elixir, it's because he himself couldn't use it.

He is highly skilled and young, at the peak of his life, full of energy and vigor, so it's impossible for him to use such elixirs.

After returning to his residence, he delivered some of his remaining stock to Hou Sheng.

Xu Qing returned to Shao Siming Bai's place.

In the eyes of others, she had climbed the social ladder. Originally just a maid, she was chosen by Master Qing, and from then on, her status in the mansion underwent a dramatic change.

But for Shao Siming Bai herself, it felt like she had fallen from the clouds into the mud.

What she experienced these past two days was hard for her to accept.

I originally thought that infiltrating Hou Sheng's mansion would be an easy task.

It won't be long before she finds out Yun Zhongjun's whereabouts, and then she can contact her sister who is outside. Together, they can rescue Yun Zhongjun.

Unexpectedly, the water in Housheng Mansion was so deep.

Here, she not only failed to find Yun Zhongjun's whereabouts, but she also perished here.

Perhaps because Xu Qing broke the seal in her mind, some of her previously sealed emotions returned, making Shao Siming Bai's thoughts exceptionally complex.

Upon seeing Xu Qing arrive, a hint of coldness first appeared in her eyes, followed by a layer of confusion, as if she were sorting out her chaotic thoughts.

"Where exactly did you steal your Yin-Yang techniques from?" Her voice was a little hoarse, but it carried an undeniable seriousness.

She remembered Xu Qing's illusion technique, which was clearly a secret technique of the Yin-Yang School. However, she had never seen such a person in the Yin-Yang School for many years. After all, such a master would not be unknown in the Yin-Yang School.

Moreover, they all come from the Yin-Yang School, so it's impossible for the other party to attack Yun Zhongjun.

After her exchange with Xu Qing, she had a guess that Yun Zhongjun's accident was very likely related to the person in front of her.

Since they are not members of the Yin-Yang School, yet they actively attacked them, they must be from an opposing force, and their Yin-Yang techniques were likely stolen.

"At a time like this, instead of considering your own situation, you still have the mind to ask me about the origins of Yin-Yang magic."

Xu Qing's gaze swept over Shao Siming Bai, a strange expression appearing on his lips.

Shao Siming said, "It is precisely because of my difficult situation that I want to live a more enlightened life."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qing gave Shao Siming Bai a deep look and said, "You seem to have changed a bit."

Shao Siming said, "I've just become clearer-headed."

People who can grow up in the complex environment of the Yin-Yang School are obviously not innocent.

Because innocent people have long since died in the cutthroat competition.

However, after becoming Shao Siming, Shao Siming Bai became simple-minded.

She wasn't aware of these things at first.

But after what happened in the past two days, she recalled everything that had happened and suddenly realized why she had changed.

However, those things are no longer the most important thing right now, since whether she can even leave this place is a question.

She wasn't sure if the person in front of her would kill her.

If she were truly going to die, she would rather die knowing the truth.

"My Yin-Yang techniques weren't learned by stealing." Xu Qing looked at Shao Siming Bai and spoke calmly, which was considered an answer to her question. "It was personally taught to me by a master of the Yin-Yang school, and this is the payment he paid me."

He didn't reveal who the expert was, but seeing Shao Siming Bai's suddenly changed expression, a smile appeared on his lips. "As for you, now that you know the answer, will you fight to the death with me for the glory of the Yin Yang School?"

Before she could answer, Xu Qing leaned closer, his voice low and carrying a casual yet oppressive tone: "Oh, I almost forgot, you don't even have the strength to lift your hand right now. Besides, if you wanted to die, you should have taken your own life when you woke up."

Shao Siming's face turned even paler, and her feelings became increasingly complicated.

Seeing her reaction, Xu Qing's lips curled up slightly again. "Alright then, serve me well. If you satisfy me, you'll not only live, but you might even get to see your sister again."

These words were like a needle, piercing Shao Siming Bai's weak spot.

Once her sealed emotions were unleashed, her sister's existence became even more important to her.

Chapter 183 I Want to Overthrow the Yin-Yang School

In the end, Shao Siming Bai lowered her once proud head to Xu Qing.

She began to seriously study the various skills required of a maid, and then followed Xu Qing to become his personal maid.

Of course, the name also needs to be changed; it's impossible to call her Shao Siming Bai in public.

Xu Qing doesn't use terms like "Yun Zhongjun" or "Shao Siming"—those are internal titles used by the Yin-Yang School. Xu Qing dislikes such superstitious and mystical practices.

He didn't give Shao Siming Bai any strange name; he simply removed the three characters "Shao Siming" and called her "Xiao Bai." Although the name was simple and straightforward, it was something she had used for many years and had developed an emotional attachment to.

"Little Bai, go fetch me a basin of water and help me wash my feet!"

"Xiao Bai, I have some aches and pains all over my body, could you massage them for me?"

"Xiao Bai, I'm getting a bit short-tempered again..."

In the days that followed, Xu Qing could often be heard giving orders to Xiao Bai and issuing various commands to her.

Faced with Xu Qing's various orders, Xiao Bai, who was half of the Lesser Fate, was naturally unhappy.

She was once the high-ranking Shao Siming of the Yin-Yang School, but now she has become a maid serving tea and water. She knows better than anyone what it is to be dependent on others, especially after Xu Qing lifted the restriction set by Donghuang Taiyi in her body. She understands that she has no way out.

That night, the moonlight was obscured by thick clouds, and the courtyard was pitch black.

Following Xu Qing's instructions, Xiao Bai warmed the bedding until it was warm, but before Xu Qing could ask her to help relieve her desire, she did so.

As if sensing something, Xu Qing suddenly got up from the bed and said something to Xiao Bai.

"You wait here, I'll go buy you some oranges!"

He spoke in a flat tone, without explaining the true meaning of his words, and then vanished from the room in a flash.

Watching Xu Qing leave, Xiao Bai's eyes flickered slightly. After the first time, she was not so bad at accepting Xu Qing's various unreasonable demands.

On the contrary, because Xu Qing knew Yin-Yang arts, and because of the "Yin-Yang master" he mentioned, and because Xu Qing had lifted the restrictions on her body, her feelings towards Xu Qing became particularly complicated.

Xu Qing didn't care about Xiao Bai's thoughts. After leaving the room, he quickened his pace instantly, his figure moving like a ghost through the shadows of the courtyard, finally stopping at a secluded corner.

In the darkness, a slender figure was pressed against the wall, breathing very lightly. If Xu Qing hadn't possessed profound inner strength, he probably wouldn't have been able to detect her.

"Come out." Xu Qing's voice was cold. With a slight movement of his fingertips, a burst of energy shot towards the corner of the wall.

"laugh……"

The moment the air was pierced, the figure finally stopped hiding and leaped to the center of the courtyard. The moonlight just happened to pierce through the clouds at that moment, illuminating the appearance of the person. Dressed in black, with a face exactly like Xiaobai's, but with eyes full of cold killing intent, it was Xiaobai's sister, the other half of Shao Siming - Hei.

Of course, Xu Qing could call him Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei looked at Xu Qing without saying a word, and gently raised her hand.

In an instant, the leaves of the old tree in the courtyard detached from the branches and fluttered around her palm like butterflies. As she formed a complex hand seal with her fingertips, the leaves instantly became as sharp as knives and shot towards Xu Qing.

"The flowers and plants haven't done anything to you, why do you have to destroy them?" Xu Qing sighed softly, her tone tinged with regret.

As soon as he finished speaking, an invisible wall of energy suddenly appeared around him. The leaves that were shooting towards him stopped three feet in front of him the moment they hit the wall of energy, and could not move forward an inch.

Back in the Yan Kingdom, Xu Qing was able to freeze arrows in mid-air from the air using only his sword and his powerful internal energy. Now, so much time has passed, and his strength has reached an even higher level, so dealing with these leaves is naturally a piece of cake.

Seeing that his attack was easily intercepted, Xiao Hei's eyes darkened, and his hand seals solidified once more.

This time, even more leaves converged from all directions, no longer individual leaves, but forming a vast, green dragon.

The crashing sound was particularly jarring in the quiet courtyard. The long dragon, with its immense momentum, slammed into Xu Qing's aura wall. The previously frozen leaves fell one after another, but the aura wall remained completely unmoved.

"The Thousand Leaves Flying Flowers Stream looks flashy, but unfortunately its power is really not that great." Xu Qing looked at Xiao Hei with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

He recognized the move immediately; it was a signature move of the Yin-Yang School's Wood Division and also the iconic move of Shao Siming in the original story.

Earlier, when he and Xiaobai fought in the room, if the space hadn't been cramped and there hadn't been no leaves available, Xiaobai probably would have used this move as well. Unfortunately, even if he had, the result wouldn't have changed.

When Xiao Hei heard the words "Wan Ye Fei Hua Liu", his body stiffened slightly.
