Shopkeeper Chen as the Matchmaker

Cultivators had a very high chance of dying in the wild. Wang Yun’s father had perished on a trip, so she paid special attention to this.

Yu Yan’s longest trip was twenty days in the past six months. But this time, it took more than a month. Shen Ping was also worried. He had Yu Yan’s Communication Talisman, but he rarely sent messages, mainly because he was afraid of disturbing Yu Yan.

After all, in a place like Cloud Mountain Swamp, one had to maintain a high level of concentration at all times, and some areas would interfere with the communication talisman.

“Fellow Daoist Yu’s combat strength isn’t weak. She’s also with the team. SHe’ll be fine. In a few days, she’ll have to pay the rental fee. Fellow Daoist Yu will be back.” He comforted them and then changed the topic. “Let me tell you a piece of good news. In addition to breaking through to the fifth level, my Talisman Daoism has also been upgraded to High Grade.”

His wife and concubine were stunned at first, but then they became excited.

“Congratulations, husband! Congratulations, husband!”

“That’s great! Husband, your Talisman Dao has broken through to the High Grade. There’s hope for you to build your foundation!”

The two of them were excited from the bottom of their hearts.

Originally, they were still wondering why the food consumption was increasing every day. However, because of their husband, they did not dare to ask. Only now did they realize that their husband had actually broken through to become a High-grade Talisman Master.

This was a joyous occasion. If a High-grade Talisman Master appeared in a cultivation family, there would be a banquet to celebrate.

“No wonder you were a little fierce last night.” Wang Yun smiled shyly.

Bai Yuying also said, “You’re happy, so you’re naturally fiercer. Do you want to do it a few more times tonight?”

Shen Ping held their wrists and said with a smile, “Wash up early tonight. I have a surprise for you.”

“What surprise?” Wang Yun asked subconsciously.

“You’ll know when the time comes.”

The illustration accompanying the purchase of the Dual Cultivation Technique was rich in content and some movements were unheard of. He had to give it a try tonight.

…

The night before the middle of June.

Yu Yan returned after a long journey. After walking into the house, she patted her huge figure and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was not late. Tomorrow was the day she paid the rent. If she was absent, who knew what the timid Fellow Daoist Shen would think.

Actually, the reason why she stayed outside for so long this time was mainly because she had accepted a lucrative mission to pay the rent.

Bam! Bam!

She arrived at the main room. Yu Yan immediately sensed the vibration of the wooden board. She was speechless. She took a quick bath. She came to the second floor to disturb Shen Ping.

“One moment.”

He heard a knock on the door. Shen Ping’s face was filled with joy. Fellow Daoist Yu had finally returned. He gave his wife and concubine an apologetic look. His wife and concubine put on their clothes understandingly.

The door opened.

Yu Yan was just about to make some sarcastic remarks when her expression changed, and she said in surprise, “Fellow Daoist Shen, you, you broke through again?”

Shen Ping smiled and said, “I was lucky enough to break through.”

Yu Yan clicked her tongue in wonder. “Fellow Daoist Shen is really energetic. Not only can you have sex with your wife and concubine every day, but your cultivation level is also rising steadily. It’s admirable.”

The wife and concubine in the room immediately blushed to the tips of their ears.

“Congratulations on your breakthrough. Here, this is the rental fee for tomorrow. I’m tired. I’ll go back and rest. You guys continue. Don’t take too long.” After taking out the spirit stones and handing them to Shen Ping, Yu Yan then walked away gracefully. She did not probe further. After all, every cultivator had their own secrets.

Early the next morning, the familiar fragrance of flower petals filled the room. Shen Ping knew that his old neighbor was taking a bath again.

“Fellow Daoist Shen, I’m not feeling well, so I won’t be going to the market together.”

“Sure.” He glanced at the closed main room. The scene of Yu Yan soaking in a wooden bucket subconsciously appeared in his mind. He didn’t know if Fellow Daoist Yu liked to wash her hair or her arms first. He shook his head and suppressed his distracting thoughts. He left quickly.

Before he walked out of the small courtyard, he heard a giggle behind him. “Fellow Daoist Shen, you’re going to the Deacon Hall, right? Let’s accompany each other.”

Shen Ping’s body stiffened. The female cultivator of the Heavenly Sound Pavilion. He could not help but curse in his heart. Why was he so unlucky? He had deliberately gone downstairs earlier because he was afraid of meeting this Fellow Daoist Mu. In the end, what he was afraid of came true.

“What? Fellow Daoist Shen, are you unwilling?”

A faint fragrance wafted into his nose.

Shen Ping hurriedly turned around and caught a glimpse of snow-white from the corner of his eye. He hurriedly lowered his head and said respectfully, “It’s my blessing that Senior Mu is willing to go with me.”

Fellow Daoist Mu chuckled. “What’s there to be nervous about? Are you afraid that I’ll eat you? Don’t worry, I won’t eat the grass beside my nest. Let’s go!”

The two of them left Yunhe Alley one after another. They arrived at the market. Shen Ping’s tense body relaxed slightly, but he still did not dare to size up this female cultivator from the Heavenly Sound Pavilion.

“The last time I saw you, I sensed the special aroma of the Heavenly Sound Pavilion from you, so I subconsciously thought that you were a sentimental person. That’s why I used a little charm technique. Fellow Daoist Shen, please forgive me.”

Hearing this, Shen Ping came to a realization. Back then, he did not sense any aura from the incense pill, nor did he take the brocade bag. He did not expect that it would still be stained with some aura.

Cultivators’ methods were really impossible to guard against.

He quickly explained.

Fellow Daoist Mu sighed. “The Heavenly Sound Pavilion’s business is difficult, and the competition is very intense. It’s been a long time since I’ve met someone I like. If Fellow Daoist Shen is interested, you can come to the Heavenly Sound Pavilion to take pity on me. Otherwise, in a few months, I’ll be kicked out.”

She had a pitiful look on her face. Shen Ping was so frightened that he chanted Buddha’s Mercy more than ten times in his heart before suppressing the restlessness in his heart. They arrived in front of the Deacon Hall. The cultivators who paid the rent lined up, but there were not many people.

“What a blockhead. You don’t know how to be gentle with women.” Fellow Daoist Mu snorted and didn’t say anything else.

Shen Ping looked apologetic. A moment later, they left the Deacon Hall. He cupped his hands and said, “Fellow Daoist Mu, I still have some things to do. I’ll take my leave first.”

Fellow Daoist Mu ignored him. After he walked far away, Shen Ping wiped the sweat off his forehead and thought to himself that it was a close call. Fortunately, this female cultivator from the Heavenly Sound Pavilion did not pester him too much. Otherwise, he really did not know how to deal with her.

After a while, he arrived at the entrance of the Spring Embroidery Pavilion.

Shopkeeper Chen welcomed him warmly. “Fellow Daoist Shen… Eh, Qi Refinement Level-5? Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Shen, you’re one step closer to immortality.”

Shen Ping said humbly, “My cultivation is insignificant and not worth mentioning.”

They did not continue the pleasantries. He took out two Golden Light Talismans and handed them over.

Shopkeeper Chen’s eyes lit up as he praised, “Fellow Daoist Shen’s Talisman Daoism skills are improving very quickly. I think you’ll be able to become a high-grade Talisman Master in a few days. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Shen has a Dao Companion as his companion?”

Shen Ping replied, “I already have a dao companion.”

Shopkeeper Chen could not help but shake his head. “What a pity. My clan has a niece who is in her twenties. Her cultivation level is already at the third level of Qi Refinement. If Fellow Daoist Shen did not have a partner, you could marry her. And now I’ve missed it. However, if Fellow Daoist Shen wants to marry a concubine, I still have a few candidates!”
