Chapter 887: Sever Ties with the Ji Family, His Majesty’s Personal Teaching (2)



The encounter and acquaintance between people follow no particular rules.

She had never considered the concept of luck before.

JI Xingzhi became excited. “Big brother, if I’m by your side, does that mean I count too?”

“Yes,” Si Fuqing replied lazily, “I’ve even gotten you a job. The client is generous, don’t miss out.”

“Of course, I wouldn’t miss it for the world!” JI Xingzhi exclaimed. “Big brother, whenever there’s such work, think of me. By the way, I’ve been invited by Eastern Mulberry to attend a conference on the Five Elements and Yin and Yang. Do you want to join me?”

“A conference?” Si Fuqing pondered for a moment. “Sure, it’ll be a good warm-up.”

“No problem,” JI Xingzhi agreed readily. “I’ll give you the invitation when we meet.”

After ending the call, Si Fuqing stretched.

She tapped her phone and sent a quick message.

[Brother Nine, are you there?]

The reply came instantly, brief and to the point.

[Yes, at the training ground. Want to come over?]

Si Fuqing’s eyes lit up.

[Wait for me, I’ll be right there.]

She grabbed the box containing the Dragon Sparrow Feathers, put on her coat, and headed out.

She couldn’t rely on someone as lucky as Emperor Yin, so she decided to find Yu Xiheng to borrow some of his luck and learn a few techniques with hidden weapons along the way.

At the training ground.

“You’re here,” Yu Xiheng turned, raising an eyebrow. “What makes you so happy?”

“Just seeing you makes me very happy,” Si Fuqing said, sidling up to him. “I’m ready. Teach me.”

Yu Xiheng smiled. “Tuition fee?”

Si Fuqing immediately became wary. “I have no money!”

“No money needed,” Yu Xiheng replied calmly. “You will have in the future.”

Si Fuqing looked at him skeptically. “I won’t have money in the future either. I have no money, just my life.”

Yu Xiheng’s eyes flickered slightly, his smile deepening.

He said no more, stepping behind her to take her arm and lift the Dragon Sparrow Feathers. “We’ll start with the basics.”

“Just so you know, I’m not paying,” Si Fuqing added after a moment’s thought. “You teach me hidden weapons, and I can teach you to drive!”

Yu Xiheng replied leisurely, “Do you really want to risk my life, young lady?”

Si Fuqing was speechless.

One day, she vowed, she would prove her driving skills were unparalleled.

The next day, at the Heaven Earth Alliance.

Si Fuqing and Song Wenhua were recording the show

Gu Huiyan was in his office, repairing cultural relics.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

Without looking up, Gu Huiyan blew the dust off his tools. “The door’s open, come in.”

The door opened, and the sound of a wheelchair rolling in followed.

Gu Huiyan looked up, displeased. “Why is it you?”

Yu Xiheng said nothing, signaling Chen Ying to bring in three boxes.

The boxes were opened, revealing three antiques.

Gu Huiyan’s sharp eyes immediately recognized that these antiques were at least four thousand years old.

He sprang up, shocked. “These are…”

Yu Xiheng smiled faintly. “She is your student. I’m delivering her gift of apprenticeship. These three antiques are for you, please accept them, Mr. Gu.”

Gu Huiyan stared at the three antiques Yu Xiheng brought, his teeth gnashing.

This young man had precisely grasped his preferences.

These three antiques had been lost for a long time. Gu Huiyan had scoured several auctions across the Western Continent without finding them, indicating they were in private collections.

Top-level antiques like these, once collected by wealthy individuals, would never be sold.

Yet Yu Xiheng had managed to retrieve them.

Gu Huiyan had never been able to see through Yu Xiheng.

He knew Yu Xiheng was a member of the Yu family, despised within the family due to his crippled legs and looked down upon by the social elites of Sijiu.

However, Yu Xiheng’s bearing was unmatched by either the descendants of wealthy families or the nobles of the Western Continent.

Who exactly was Yu Xiheng?

Gu Huiyan rubbed his hands together, resigned. “How much did these cost? Quite a bit, I assume?”

“Antiques have a price,” Yu Xiheng said calmly. “But she is priceless.”

Gu Huiyan was momentarily stunned, at a loss for words.

“Very well,” he nodded. “I’ll accept this gift, but it’s too precious. I must do something in return. How about I help you out?”

In his younger days, he had been quite popular with the ladies.

“No need,” Yu Xiheng replied slowly. “I have my own plans, no need to trouble yourself.”

Gu Huiyan was speechless.

From his few interactions with Yu Xiheng, it was clear that when it came to scheming, this young man far outstripped an old-timer like himself.
