At dusk, the outer door of the physiotherapy center had been locked up.

Ye Anping had just finished practicing a sword routine in the backyard. Now, he was sitting cross-legged on a recliner, meditating and adjusting his breath while waiting for his sister to come.

Taking advantage of this idle time, he began to explore his own meridians to see if there were other ways that would facilitate the elimination of excess yang.

After roughly sweeping through his meridians, he started to feel that what Si Xuanji had said was not just to scare him.

He originally had water and wood spiritual roots, and those should be the types of spiritual energy in his body, but now, there was inexplicably some irregular energy that seemed to be spiritual but not quite.

This energy was like blood clots, blocking the various meridians, and it had no effect for now. At best, it only slightly slowed down the circulation of spiritual energy in the meridians.

However, once this irregular energy accumulated too much, it would inevitably cause the movement of spiritual energy to stop.

The end result was that his meridians and collaterals would be broken by the spiritual energy, causing him to explode and die.

As for this way of dying, Ye Anping did not dare to think about it.

In the past ten years, he hadn't seen a cultivator who died after his body exploded, but it should be hard to tell if there was still a whole body.

After concentrating and regulating his breathing for about an hour, Ye Anping took a breath, relaxed, opened his eyes, and looked up at the sky.

The sun was about to set. His sister should be here soon.

He stood up, pulled his sweatshirt, and sniffed it. It smelled of sweat, so he thought about bathing first so as not to be smelly when he hugged his sister later.

However...

He only took two steps toward the bedroom when he suddenly felt a rush of heat in his chest.

"Hiss---why so sudden..."

Ye Anping felt a little bad, so he immediately took out two pills that could temporarily strengthen the meridians from his storage bag and swallowed them. Then, he returned to the recliner and sat down, closing his eyes and continuing to regulate his breathing.

Once he used his spiritual sense to check the state of his meridians again, he was shocked.

An hour ago, he was obviously still at the fifth level of *Qi Refining*, but now his cultivation stage suddenly reached *Qi Refining* perfection.

A large amount of spiritual energy had nowhere to settle, charging through the meridians just like a wild bull running rampant. The original 'yang energy' rapidly multiplied like a virus, blocking several key points on the meridians. This was followed by severe pain and a burning sensation.

"How could this happen? The cultivation level instantly increased by so much..."

Ye Anping immediately used his spiritual sense to control the meridians and, at the same time, thought about the reasons for this sudden increase in his cultivation level.

When he returned from the ***Black Star*** Sect back mountain, his cultivation suddenly improved by two small levels, which was understandable. After all, in order to lead the way for Liang Zhu and the others, he stayed in a spiritual place like the back mountain of the ***Black Star*** Sect for several days.

However, this current breakthrough from the fifth level of *Qi Refining* to the tenth level of perfection was unexplainable.

Even a pure water spiritual root like his sister took nearly a year to reach perfection from the fifth level of *Qi Refining*. And this was under the daily devilish supervision of her brother. For an ordinary cultivator, it took at least four or five years.

Could it be something about his constitution that he didn't even know about...

"Tsk... if this goes on..."

Ye Anping gritted his teeth and clicked his tongue, feeling very bad. He quickly stood up from the recliner, summoned the flying sword from his storage bag, and wanted to fly directly to ***Black Star*** Sect to find Si Xuanji.

There was no room for him to consider it anymore, in half an hour at most, he might explode and die.

However, when he summoned the flying sword and stepped on it, he realized that he could not control the restless energy in his body, and as a result, he could not control the sword at all.

"Hiss--"

Blood was starting to show in Ye Anping's eyes.

"Sister..."

He could only count on his sister now, so he immediately sealed his soul and main acupuncture points to allow his body to last a while longer.

With a 'plop,' Ye Anping collapsed on the ground in the backyard.

...

***Black Star*** Sect's **Heavenly Cloud Peak**.

Pei Lianxue was currently sitting on the roof of the compound's main house, squinting as she looked at the sun that was only a shred showing behind the mountains.

At noon today, Elder Wang came over and personally gave the ***Black Star*** Sect's inner disciple badges and clothes to Pei Lianxue and Feng Yu Die.

The moment she got the uniform, Pei Lianxue couldn't wait to show the new clothes to her brother later. Feng Yu Die also told her that he asked her to look for him after sunset.

Therefore, Pei Lianxue came to the roof some time ago and quietly waited for the sun to set.

Right now, Feng Yu Die stood in the yard with two strings of five-color dumplings and shouted, "Sister Pei-- do you want to eat..."

However, right at this time, Father Sun finally disappeared entirely behind the mountains.

Without saying a word, Pei Lianxue stepped on the flying sword that was already prepared, and with a whoosh, she turned into a stream of light, flying toward the ***Black Star*** Sect's marketplace. Within a quarter of an hour, she arrived at the door of *Ye's Physiotherapy Center*.

Seeing that the front door was closed, she took out a small mirror from her storage bag, smoothed her bangs that were blown by the wind, sniffed her clothes to make sure she smelled good, then jumped onto the roof and came around to the backyard's side.

"Brother..."

When she saw Ye Anping lying in the backyard, her joyful smile instantly froze, and her pupils shrank to a dot.

"Brother!!"

She subconsciously wanted to rush to him, but after thinking about it, she took a deep breath, calmed down, and vigilantly scanned the surroundings with her spiritual sense. After making sure that no one was hiding in the backyard, she jumped off the roof and ran to Ye Anping. She knelt down, lifted him up to rest on her lap, and calmly checked on his condition.

"No external injuries... the body temperature is so high... Huh?"

She suddenly noticed the bulge in her brother's pants.

"I remember that was..."

Pei Lianxue hesitated for a moment, her face flushed, but immediately shook her head to banish the distracting thoughts.

One shouldn't have scruples when treating an illness!

At once, she opened the waistband of his pants and peeked inside.

!

"Why is it so swollen? I remember that place was not so swollen. Is that the cause of illness?"

Pei Lianxue stared at it for a while and then started to take out the knife from the storage bag. However, she suddenly thought that it was also a part of her brother's body, so in the end, she rejected the idea of cutting it off.

"What did brother teach me... to mix spiritual sense with spiritual energy and send it into the other party's body..."

She mused, then brushed away Ye Anping's bangs, closed her eyes, and pointed her sword fingers at the center of his forehead, mobilizing her energy.

She frowned as she found an irregular energy in her brother's meridians, blocking all the acupuncture points. But soon, she realized that the spiritual energy she sent into her brother's meridians was like a stream of water, which could dissolve and eliminate the impurities that blocked them.

"In that case..."

Pei Lianxue concentrated on channeling her spiritual energy into Ye Anping.

Although it was effective, she soon discovered that there were too many impurities. Therefore, she feared that before she could help him get rid of the chaotic energy, his meridians would be overwhelmed and burst.

After thinking for a while, she looked around the yard, then carried her brother into the bedroom and laid him on the bed. She also lay down next to him and hugged him tightly.

"Brother, just hold on a little longer..."
