My entry can't possibly be this normal!

"Well……"

Yun Yaoji let out a soft moan, her red lips already breached by Li Ping'an's domineering advance, the two locked in a deep kiss across the table...

In an instant, the earth shook and the sun and moon lost their light.

The whole world seemed to have disappeared.

Time seemed to stand still.

Between heaven and earth, there is only each other.

The beauty was indescribable.

……

I don't know how much time passed; it might have been a moment, or it might have been a very long time.

Li Ping'an finally released Yun Yaoji.

Their lips parted.

Yun Yaoji gasped for breath, her face flushed, her eyes filled with a mixture of shame, anger, panic, and a hint of allure...

"Li Ping'an, you...you have such audacity..."

Li Pingan gently kissed her lips again.

"I can be even bolder..."

Yun Yaoji panicked and quickly dodged away, escaping Li Ping'an's control.

"Stop, stop fooling around..."

Li Ping'an teased, "Senior sister, weren't you the one who started flirting with me?"

"Now they're playing the 'playing hard to get' game again."

Yun Yaoji scoffed, "When did I flirt with you? And what do you mean by playing hard to get?"

"No, that's not true at all..."

Li Ping'an approached step by step, smiling faintly, "Still not admitting it..."

Yun Yaoji panicked even more: "You, you don't come any closer..."

Li Ping'an certainly wouldn't let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

However, just as he was about to get close, Yun Yaoji couldn't help but unleash her magical power, forcefully pushing Li Ping'an away.

"Senior sister, are we really going this far?"

Li Ping'an almost vomited blood. The two had been in an ambiguous relationship for a long time, and tonight they finally made progress, but unexpectedly Yun Yaoji still pulled this trick.

Yun Yaoji stepped forward, grabbed Li Ping'an's hand, and then...

They forcibly escorted him outside.

"Junior brother, you...you should go."

Li Ping'an: "...Senior sister, are you sure?"

"Ah."

Li Pingan sighed and could only shake his head.

Just as he was about to leave.

Yun Yaoji suddenly grabbed his hand again and gently gave him a sweet kiss on the cheek.

"Junior brother, thank you..."

Li Pingan touched his cheek.

"Thank you for what?"

"If it weren't for you, Qingyun Sect would never be where it is today, and neither would I be where I am today."

"Thank you for being someone I can rely on in this time of crisis."

Li Pingan chuckled and nodded.

"Well then, I also want to thank you, senior sister..."

He leaned in again, but Yun Yaoji pushed him away, blushing.

"Alright, alright, stop fooling around, we'll talk about it another time..."

"In the future?"

Li Ping'an smiled, knowing that this matter could not be rushed. He gently touched Yun Yaoji's cheek, then turned and left under the moonlight.

Yun Yaoji watched his retreating figure, her heart still pounding with excitement, her body trembling slightly. She knew that she would likely have a sleepless night...

……

I wonder how Yun Yaoji is doing, but Li Ping'an himself is sleeping soundly.

That night, I had many beautiful dreams...

The next day, the Qingyun Sect members gathered again. Yun Yaoji still seemed flustered and absent-minded, which aroused the curiosity of the other disciples.

Li Ping'an, on the other hand, remained remarkably calm and composed.

He announced to everyone that he had broken through to the sixth-grade level of a Dao Forging Master and was preparing to go to the Dao Forging Master Alliance for certification today.

Everyone was naturally shocked.

Yu Ni Chang, in particular, was completely terrified...

"A sixth-rank, sixth-grade Dao Forging Master?!"

"Doesn't that mean I've reached the same level as Grandpa?!"

"Master Chang, you truly are an unprecedented, unparalleled genius..."

Li Pingan waved his hand and said, "Isn't this something that has been generally accepted for a long time?"

"There's not much to say."

Yu Ni Chang was still deeply shocked.

"But this is a sixth-grade blacksmith!"

“Even at the headquarters of the Dao Forging Alliance, people of this caliber are absolute big shots, capable of taking on core responsibilities, or like my grandfather, serving as chief elders in various branches!”

"Moreover, Elder Master, you are so young. With such talent, the Dao Forging Alliance will treat you as an unprecedented and unparalleled genius and nurture you with special care. You will be highly respected wherever you go!"

Yun Yaoji couldn't help but ask, "Junior brother, when did you...?"

Li Ping'an smiled and said, "After refining the Mountain and River Cauldron, I had some enlightenment, and naturally I broke through."

"Naturally..."

Yu Ni Chang couldn't stop smiling bitterly.

She is also a Dao Forger, but she is only a ninth-rank Dao Forger to this day.

Although she believed she had a higher talent for cultivation, it didn't mean she didn't want to improve her level as a Dao Forger, but unfortunately...

Li Ping'an said, "Don't be so surprised. There will be many more surprising things in the future."

Yu Ni Chang sighed, "Master Elder, if you're going to the Dao Forging Alliance, I'll go with you. I also want to see Grandpa..."

Li Ping'an: "You want to see your grandfather's surprised expression, don't you?"

Yu Ni Chang smiled: "As expected, nothing can be hidden from Master Chang... I wonder how shocked he will be when he hears about this... Just thinking about it makes me look forward to it..."

Bai Xiaoxian quickly raised her hand and said, "Then I want to go too!"

Xiao Xile said, "Weren't you going to Qingtian Market with me?"

“Our business has been booming lately, and I’m thinking of officially establishing a base for our Qingyun Sect in Qingtian Market. This matter is also urgent.”

Bai Xiaoxian pouted and said, "Back then, I didn't know that Master Chang was also going down the mountain."

Yun Yaoji said, "I'll go to Qingtian Market myself. I have a feeling this matter won't be that simple."

"Thank you very much, Master!"

“Master is right. The Nine Cauldrons Chamber of Commerce has been completely silent these days, but everyone can see that they must be plotting something bad and preparing to launch a big attack on us.”

"The establishment of our Qingyun Chamber of Commerce is the perfect opportunity for them to make their move!"

Li Ping'an stopped him: "So it's called Qingyun Chamber of Commerce?"

"Hmm? What does Teacher Chang think?"

Li Ping'an thought for a moment: "We have to outdo the Nine Cauldrons Chamber of Commerce, so I think we should call it..."

"Let's go to the Shiquan Chamber of Commerce!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"This name is great! It not only surpasses the Nine Cauldrons Chamber of Commerce, the Eight Desolations Chamber of Commerce, and the Seven Stars Chamber of Commerce, but it's also perfect in every way and has a good meaning... Let's go with it!"

Xiao Xile also laughed and said, "As expected of Master Chang, let's call it the Shiquan Chamber of Commerce!"

"Alright, let's split into two groups then."

Yun Yaoji said, "Ziyun, Xile, Dashan, and I will go to Qingtian Market to discuss the Shiquan Chamber of Commerce."

"Junior brother, you..."

She glanced at Li Ping'an guiltily, only daring to look briefly before looking up to examine him closely.

"I will go to the Dao Forging Alliance with Ni Chang and Xiao Xian."

Everyone responded, "Yes!"

Li Ping'an glanced at Yun Yaoji.

He suddenly had a premonition.

"Senior sister, I have a bad feeling. This trip might be dangerous. Please be careful."

Yun Yaoji also looked at Li Ping'an.

"Each other..."

Xiao Xile: "Ahem."

"Master, Elder Uncle, what are you two doing?"

Li Ping'an glared at him: "Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking!"

Xiao Xile: "...My teacher Uncle is not much older than me..."

Li Ping'an said, "See you at Daqingshan again."

Goodbye, Daqingshan.

After saying this, Yun Yaoji, along with her three disciples Su Ziyun, Xiao Xile, and Feng Dashan, left Qingyun Sect and headed towards Qingtian Market.

Li Pingan sighed and shook his head.

"Let's go too."

Yu Nishang took Bai Xiaoxian's hand, and the two women nodded and followed behind Li Ping'an.
