Wen Caishang’s delicate face blushed slightly, and her palm concentrated the "Yang Pattern." The Yin Yang Immortal Lovers Sword was created by the Yin Yang Immortal Companions, based on the foundation of love, combined with the principles of Yin and Yang, and embodies their entire life’s Martial Arts.

Blending emotion into the sword, blending desire into the sword.

It is rumored that the "Yin Yang Immortal Companions" never age, living a lifetime of carefree love. They co-created the sword technique, exploring the principles of Yin and Yang. But even the Yin Yang Immortal Companions found it difficult to practice the sword technique to its "Peak."

All due to the "Yin Yang Immortal Lovers Sword" being a combined sword technique. The two roam freely together, their feelings genuine and true. Yet, because it involves emotions, it cannot be mastered through mere hard practice.

At that time, the Yin Yang Immortal Companions practiced the swordsmanship to the fourth layer. Suddenly looking back, each layer was perfect, yet unable to reach the "Peak." So they set a secret agreement to each pursue their path. The one who achieves the Peak in the first two layers first will be considered the winner.

The loser will be marked with the sword seal and become the "Subordinate Sword," dependent on the primary sword.

Li Xian obtained an incomplete sword manual, unaware of the purpose of the "sword seal." Wen Caishang’s face reddened; she had seen the complete sword manual and knew the purpose of this seal.

No time to think further.

Suddenly feeling a cool sensation all over, Li Xian’s Yang Qi and Wen Caishang’s Yin Qi were drawn by the sword, merged and sublimated, then fed back to each other. Wen Caishang was astounded yet delighted: "Mr. Li La, our Sword Dao resonates with heaven and earth, Yin and Yang circulate, cleansing our bodies, a rare opportunity."

Using the body as a basin to receive the charm of Yin and Yang.

Li Xian’s Yang Fire burned bright, and the ridge of his back gradually adhered to the charm of Yin and Yang, casting a strange glow like a rainbow, his heavy pupils and strange eyes deep, a crimson mole at his brow captivating.

Both touched palms, sitting side by side.

Wen Caishang’s realm is profound, her body attuned to heaven and earth. The principle of "Yin Yang" is precious, and few Martial Arts involve this. The Yin Yang Immortal Lovers Sword begins with "emotion" and is researched throughout their lives, gradually touching the charm of Yin and Yang.

Hidden within the sword manual. The power of the Yin Yang Immortal Lovers Sword lies in "emotion" and "Yin Yang."

In heaven and earth, there must be sun and moon rotation.

Comprehending the mysteries of Yin and Yang. It’s like having heaven and earth within the body, beginning to experience the alternation of day and night and gradually the changes of the seasons...

It can preserve one’s youthful appearance!

"Li Xian’s talent is exceedingly impressive; his Martial Arts practice progresses slowly, yet seems ceaseless."

"Li Xian... you..."

Wen Caishang’s mind was chaotic, like having a cat scratch at it. Her beautiful eyes mixed with joy, vexation, anger, and irritation... various emotions intertwined.

She secretly compared herself and felt greatly frustrated. Since entering Jianghu, few could rival her.

Li Xian began as a servant, yet his perfect appearance, heavy pupil appearance, ridge like a mountain, Peak, outstanding archery... all amazed her. Despite his humble beginnings, his shrewdness and determination were unparalleled.

She cherished that talent, fondly attached to this son. Remembering the thorny journey, Li Xian risked his life for her, ventured into danger for her... yet she was also annoyed by this talent.

Suddenly raising her brows.

In Qi Lake, the "Qi-Eating Gu" sensed the charm of Yin and Yang, and the speed of consuming Inner Qi slowed somewhat.

Wen Caishang was delighted beyond measure, having identified the Qi-Eating Gu’s weakness, knowing how to tackle this next step, and waiting to return to the manor, she would be able to break free from the predicament.

When the charm of Yin and Yang dissipated. Li Xian exhaled impure air and laughed: "Madam, how do you feel?" Wen Caishang smiled gently: "It feels very good. Little Immortal, I’m tired from playing along the way, take me back to the manor."

Li Xian laughed: "Alright."

It was mid-May.

Li Xian and Wen Caishang traveled and played, with the robe watching the moon, their feelings intimately intertwined, exceptionally joyful.

On this day, at the junction between Chongling Prefecture and Qiong Heavenly Mansion. Wen Caishang instructed Li Xian to scout the route to "Flying Cloud City." Learning it was over ten miles away, they walked to Flying Cloud City. Upon entering the city, Wen Caishang led the way straight to the bustling street.

They saw a building "Silk Clothing Pavilion," twenty-seven zhang high, intricately carved beams and painted rafters, colorful lanterns hung. In front of the pavilion, carriages and horses flowed without commoners passing.

Tonight the Silk Clothing Pavilion will auction off a set of "Silk Brocade." Experts from Zhou City were flocking.

Wen Caishang’s expression was calm, hiding her presence, unnoticed by others, entering the "Silk Clothing Pavilion" through the back door. She exchanged her coarse clothes for a new skirt. Her demeanor unchanged, clouds of silver hairpins, extremely splendid.

She also took several hundred taels of silver.

She thought: "The influence of Silk Clothing Pavilion here is not shallow, if I intended to, indeed I could gather a good number of experts for escort. But... these experts, how could they compare to Mr. Li La bringing me peace of mind."

"These bothersome characters should not come to disturb our elegance. Hmph! Mr. Li La is so insincere, true and false even deceiving me."

The two traveled and played frugally, enduring hardships. Staying in cheap inns, walking broken roads... Li Xian was unwilling to rob common people and merchants, resulting in a lack of funds.

Wen Caishang selected a jade robe for Li Xian. Decorated opulently, delightful to look at. Wen Caishang said: "This is my good son, truly handsome!"

Embracing and cuddling.

They frolicked around Zhou City for several days, spending hundreds of taels extravagantly. Enjoying gourmet dishes, appreciating beautiful scenery.

In high spirits, never forgetting to return to the manor. Li Xian purchased a horse carriage, traveling along the official road. Tired of the bustling crowds, he took to a secluded mountain path.

In the carriage, Li Xian rested his head on Wen Caishang’s lap, enjoying the kind lady’s service.

That day, the horse carriage passed a forked road. A wooden sign stood in the middle, the eastern direction leading to a wild mountain path, the western to a waterway. Wen Caishang suddenly said: "Little Immortal, entering Qiong Heavenly Mansion from Chongling Prefecture, it’s best to take the water route."

Li Xian said: "Alright! I shall find a boat to take us." Thinking: "Returning to Yihetang Manor, I ought to leave."

Wen Caishang laughed: "Why bother taking a big ship. We shall buy a small boat, sail down the river, and reach our destination."

"Large ships are filled with many people and prying eyes, not interesting. For us two, without interruption, with paper, brushes, and ink prepared, I will teach you calligraphy and poetry. If you are tired, I’ll massage your shoulders and legs. Isn’t this beautiful?"

Li Xian laughed: "How can I always take advantage of you. Then I... shall also massage your shoulders and legs, for poetry and prose I surely cannot match you, therefore I shall not show off. But for trivial things, I know quite a few, and by then I will share them with you."
