A thin mist shrouded the earth, and the sky was exceptionally low today, with only a faint glimmer of light visible through the thick clouds.

Experienced residents of the southern part of the city would know that this is a sign that rain is coming.

Winter in the southern part of the city is short, lasting only a month, and rainy days are not uncommon during this period, making the weather even colder than usual.

Zhao Yujin tossed and turned in bed early in the morning, hoping to hear that familiar footstep.

To her disappointment, Xie Wei did not come to knock on the door, just as he had said yesterday.

"You little rascal, you just said you wouldn't come and then you didn't. You're such a heartless man." Zhao Yujin was about to lift the blanket and go downstairs to wash up.

'So what if you rely on yourself? You can't live without Xiao Xingzhi, can you?'

"Knock knock knock"

Three knocks on the door made Zhao Yujin obediently lie back down on the bed.

"Sister Jue, are you awake?" Xie Wei's voice came from the other side of the door, carrying a touch of the gentleness that is unique to the morning.

Seeing that Xie Wei did not open the door, Zhao Yujin hummed in response, indicating that she was awake.

Xie Wei replied, "Breakfast is already cooked. Come downstairs to eat after you've washed up."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Wei's footsteps began to sound as he left.

Zhao Yujin was so angry that she kept hitting the quilt.

In the end, I had to rely on myself.

When Zhao Yujin came downstairs for breakfast, it had already started raining outside. The rain wasn't heavy; it was more like a light drizzle.

But what's most annoying is this kind of light rain. The climate in the southern part of the city is different from other areas. Even the heaviest rain only lasts for a short while before stopping, but the light rain can last for several days in a row.

Xie Wei was lying in the old chair reading a book, seemingly so engrossed that he didn't notice Zhao Yujin had already come downstairs.

Zhao Yujin had changed her previous patient attire. Her hair was still casually draped over her back. She wore a knitted camisole with a black Chanel-style jacket, a dark fleece-lined pleated skirt, and the bandages on her legs were gone, replaced by gray pantyhose and fluffy slippers.

Seeing Xie Wei's serious expression, Zhao Yujin didn't disturb him. She had originally wanted to show him his outfit.

After finishing breakfast, Zhao Yujin found a place in the living room to meditate.

Meditation is also a form of cultivation.

Zhao Yujin cultivates a technique called "Moon Technique," which can be considered a top-tier technique. The fact that it allowed Zhao Yujin to leap from the Acquired Realm to the Transcendent Realm within a few years is enough to show how powerful this technique is.

Her master said that she comprehended the "Moon Manual" from an incomplete cultivation technique, which resulted in the "Moon Manual" being powerful but also having certain flaws in cultivation.

When practicing the "Moon Technique," practitioners are required to maintain stillness. The person must be still, and the mind must be still, so that spiritual energy can flow through the blood to the whole body, and the efficiency of the "Moon Technique" will also be improved.

Zhao Yujin felt that this set of techniques was not actually suitable for her, but her master said it was all fate.

Xie Wei, who was reading a book, suddenly sensed a familiar aura. Looking in the direction of the spiritual energy fluctuation, he saw Zhao Yujin cultivating.

Xie Wei sat up and quietly examined Zhao Yujin for a while, confirming that the familiar aura was indeed emanating from her.

Xie Wei hadn't noticed when her spiritual energy was sealed before, and the effects of the medicine had just worn off last night, so her spiritual energy wasn't particularly noticeable until this morning when she started practicing her cultivation technique.

"This is the Taiyin?!" Xie Wei finally remembered what this familiar aura was. The aura that Xu Daiwei and the others emitted when they cultivated the Taiyin was just like Zhao Yujin's now.

No, there are still differences. When Xu Daiwei and the others cultivate, the spiritual energy flows in and out of their bodies more smoothly, while Zhao Yujin compresses the spiritual energy into her body in batches and then refines it all at once.

But this aura.

"Xie Lan, what's going on?" Xie Wei asked.

"Let me see," Xie Lan said after a short while. "It's nothing serious. This is just an incomplete version of the 'Taiyin' technique. Presumably, the person who taught her this technique filled in the missing parts with their own knowledge."

"Although the filling wasn't perfect, it ultimately achieved the same effect as 'Taiyin,' but the efficiency was worlds apart." Xie Lan's tone seemed to show considerable admiration for Master Zhao Yujin.

"Is there a big difference?" Xie Wei asked.

"Yes, your method has a drawback. Once you get distracted, the spiritual energy compressed in your body will disperse, and the spiritual power refined in the same batch will also dissipate. It's like wasting time and practicing for nothing."

"This method requires practitioners to concentrate fully while practicing the technique and not be distracted. The requirements are not high, but in this restless era, few people can do it," Xie Lan sighed.

"See, your older sister failed."

After Xie Lan finished speaking, Xie Wei saw the spiritual energy gathered around Zhao Yujin dissipate, followed by a few coughs.

Xie Wei quickly knelt down in front of Zhao Yujin to check on her and found that the cough was just caused by a sudden surge of spiritual energy in her body, and there was nothing else seriously wrong.

After coughing, Zhao Yujin stared blankly, recalling what had just happened.

She was cultivating peacefully, but when Xie Wei's gaze fell on her, she could no longer calm down, especially since she could feel that his gaze had not left her and was still looking at her.

It seems that today's outfit worked; Zhao Yujin's happiness led to her downfall.

Seeing Zhao Yujin in a daze, Xie Wei assumed that she was confused because she had failed in her cultivation. After thinking for a moment, he spoke up.

"Sister Jue, where did you get this cultivation technique?"

"Huh?" Zhao Yujin was still processing Xie Wei's gaze when he suddenly found himself standing right in front of her.
