With his inner strength, he was able to suppress that rowdy and wild yang energy for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>,,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he returned to the manor, Xing’Er came to greet him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, Madam has found a few cultivation technique manuals for you. They’re in your study now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d mentioned before about needing help finding some cultivation techniques, but hadn’t expected things to happen so fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really? Let me go take a look!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just in time, too. He’d gotten quite a few Talent Entries lately, but the only cultivation technique he had was still the Wind-Slaying Saber Skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Sheng Lanzhi didn’t have any good ideas, Ye Liuyun had even been considering dropping a hint to Si Nan, seeing if the Embroidered Uniform Guard had a way to source some manuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Didn’t expect that as soon as he returned, the manuals would be delivered to his door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Liuyun wasted no time and headed straight for his own courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing’Er quietly followed behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’d only walked a few steps when Ye Liuyun suddenly twitched his nose, sniffed, then turned to look at Xing’Er behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ye Liuyun’s gaze, Xing’Er was completely puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking his head, Ye Liuyun continued forward, but spoke in a calm tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since your gui water has come, you should rest well. If Madam asks, tell her you’re still working here with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui water in this era, of course, referred to a woman’s menstrual period.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were before, Ye Liuyun definitely wouldn’t have picked up on it. But with the newly acquired \"Scent-Sensing Woman\" Talent Entry, his nose was a little too sensitive now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\",,,\" After a long silence, Xing’Er finally answered softly, \"Understood, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t ask how Ye Liuyun knew her body was acting differently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, ever since she was little, things like this had happened before, but even when her body wasn’t well, she’d still quietly keep working, never daring to complain about pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Liuyun just said whatever came to mind. There was no deeper meaning to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the study.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Liuyun gestured for Xing’Er to rest off to the side, while he began inspecting the cultivation technique manuals left on his desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d thought there’d only be one or two, but judging by the pile, there must’ve been at least ten. That was seriously efficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Liuyun quietly examined the manuals, while Xing’Er quietly observed Ye Liuyun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>,,,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pine Wood Saber Skill, Jade-Breaking Hand, Iron Armor Skill, Black Tiger Palm, and the rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Liuyun went through them one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just going by their names, they sounded like pretty generic stuff; nothing rare or especially respected among cultivation techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then again, that was normal. The truly precious techniques would cause bloody chaos in the martial world if they got out. Sheng Lanzhi’s father may have been a third grade high official once, but that was \"once\".\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Managing to source these techniques was already good enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Liuyun wasn’t disappointed. Even if these were run-of-the-mill, they had to be at least a bit better than his Wind-Slaying Saber Skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He flipped through book after book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until reaching the last manual, when Ye Liuyun paused; the other books looked pretty new, but this final one had an old, elegant feel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cangyang Force?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Xing’Er noticed Ye Liuyun’s surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting in her chair, Xing’Er stood up and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This Cangyang Force was gifted to the Patriarch by a sect elder during his tenure, an upper-grade cultivation technique sent in hope of winning favor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Patriarch Xing’Er referred to could only be Sheng Lanzhi’s father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then why didn’t he cultivate it himself?\" If it’s an upper-grade technique, why not use it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Patriarch was obsessed with his official career, and had no interest in cultivation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing’Er explained softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Liuyun smiled in understanding. Another one obsessed with politics and neglecting cultivation, just like Ye Liufeng. No wonder they ended up together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So if it’s an upper-grade technique, why didn’t the other party retrieve it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back when he was a third-grade high official, he was rich and powerful, so it wouldn’t be odd for a major sect to want to curry favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now that’s not the case—why weren’t they worried about the technique being leaked out?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing’Er shook her head at first, then replied,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Patriarch once said, this Cangyang Force may be of high quality, but it’s also extremely difficult to learn—it requires a cultivator to possess exceptionally vigorous yang energy to even get started, otherwise its power simply cannot be utilized.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’d clearly calculated that, which was why they could give it away so easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing’Er, as Sheng Lanzhi’s most trusted maid, had heard a lot about things in the manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So that’s how it is!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That explained everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But a cultivation technique that demands super high yang energy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Didn’t they know I have an Extreme Yang Physique?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tch, lucky me—just got Extreme Yang Physique today, and immediately a matching technique falls into my hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucky?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing that, Ye Liuyun suddenly remembered something; it seemed that aside from the newly acquired Extreme Yang Physique, his only purple-quality Talent Entry was Luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, it’s that Entry at work again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It might seem useless most of the time, but luck really does work wonders at critical moments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got it. You go sit down for a while, have someone bring you a cup of hot tea.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having understood everything, Ye Liuyun gestured for Xing’Er to sit, and told someone to bring her tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Ye Liuyun himself, he focused on reading the Cangyang Force manual closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finally getting an upper-grade technique, of course he had to start cultivating it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe when Sheng Lanzhi sent it over, it was just there to make up numbers; she probably never thought Ye Liuyun had the right talent to cultivate it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>,,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hoo!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He let out a light breath and sat down on a stool, then followed the manual’s instructions, starting the inner strength circulation through his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d originally thought he’d have to sit cross-legged, hands clasped, keeping his mind centered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after trying it, he found there was no need for all that; that posture just helped people enter meditation, but really, if you wanted, you could stand and cultivate inner strength all the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his inner strength completed a circuit through his body, Ye Liuyun started to steam; this was the symptom of yang energy burning violently inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing’Er had felt worried at first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing Ye Liuyun looking completely normal—if anything, he seemed slightly to be enjoying the process—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>she let it go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She simply cupped her warm teacup, a smile playing at her lips, thoughts drifting somewhere unknown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>,,,,,,,\u003C\u002Fp>",1236,"2026-05-30T16:57:05.885Z","2026-06-01T04:31:44.368Z",1,"novelbin.me","51c98736684da176131d36f5c633fccf6043971f6be082bd951a4d49684ea0e9","embroidered-uniform-guard-i-can-plunder-talents-chapter-14","embroidered-uniform-guard-i-can-plunder-talents-chapter-12",471,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fembroidered-uniform-guard-i-can-plunder-talents-cover.jpg"]
