After a while, Ci Xin slowly said, "Don't try to outwit me with your words, I know I can't win against you in talking, but when it comes to fighting, you better watch your mouth." Hearing this, Xiao Yifei nodded seriously, "Makes sense, makes sense, Senior Ci Xin is indeed more formidable than us juniors."
"You!" Ci Xin pointed at Xiao Yifei's nose, looking extremely angry because Xiao Yifei's words implied that Ci Xin was bullying the young. That's why Ci Xin was so furious. Seeing this, Xiao Yifei remained calm and looked at Ci Xin with great composure.
Seeing Xiao Yifei so calm, Ci Xin had no choice but to drop their hand helplessly. After a moment, Xiao Yifei spoke first, "Senior, you didn't come to me just to talk about these things, did you?" Xiao Yifei laughed, his eyes wise as he stared at Ci Xin, his gaze making Ci Xin a bit unsettled, as if nothing could escape his eyes.
Ci Xin couldn't understand why a man much younger could speak better than him, but Xiao Yifei was right; Ci Xin didn't come to Xiao Yifei just to talk about these things. Seeing the expression on Ci Xin's face, Xiao Yifei knew he was right.
Ci Xin frowned slightly and asked, "Is your surname Xiao?" Hearing this, Xiao Yifei nodded naturally. While Xiao Yifei was cautious, he wasn't so careful as to withhold his surname.
Seeing Xiao Yifei nod, Ci Xin continued, "Are you from the Xiao Family?" Ci Xin's question was simple and straightforward; he was asking if Xiao Yifei came from that Xiao Family. This question surprised Xiao Yifei. How did he know about the Xiao Family? With such doubts, Xiao Yifei slowly said, "Senior, there are many Xiao Families in the world, may I ask which one you are referring to?"
Seeing this, Ci Xin frowned, "Hmph, is there anyone who doesn't know the Xiao Family of the world's number one Divine Doctor?" Ci Xin seemed to see through Xiao Yifei pretending ignorance, so his tone was somewhat annoyed. Hearing this, Xiao Yifei pretended to be enlightened but internally became cautious.
"Oh, so that's the Xiao Family you're talking about, Senior." Xiao Yifei chuckled and continued, "I am indeed the descendant you mentioned of the Divine Doctor." Hearing this, Ci Xin's expression suddenly became excited, seemingly due to Xiao Yifei claiming he was the Divine Doctor's descendant.
"I knew it," Ci Xin looked at Xiao Yifei and suddenly laughed. This laugh was similar to the satisfying laughter after obtaining something. Ci Xin's laugh made Xiao Yifei uneasy, and he even began preparing to resist Ci Xin; he had no interest in this old woman.
But it turned out Xiao Yifei misunderstood. Ci Xin excitedly asked, "Then do you know the Xiao Acupuncture Technique?" Xiao Yifei was shocked when Ci Xin mentioned this term. Not only did this person named Ci Xin know about the Xiao Family, but also the Xiao Acupuncture Technique. For a moment, Xiao Yifei furrowed his brows.
At this moment, he had no idea what Ci Xin was up to. If Ci Xin was an old foe, Xiao Yifei might not make it out alive. Seeing the expression on Xiao Yifei's face, Ci Xin sneered and said, "It seems you know the Xiao Acupuncture Technique, and since you have the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle, you might as well openly admit it."
Hearing Ci Xin present such evidence, Xiao Yifei helplessly laughed and said, "You are indeed impressive, Senior. Yes, I do know the Xiao Acupuncture Technique. Is that the reason why Senior came today?" When Xiao Yifei asked this, Ci Xin laughed, implying this was the reason for his visit.
"Precisely, that is indeed why I came." Saying so, Ci Xin slowly stood up, his demeanor impeccable. Wrapping their arms in front of their chest, they looked down at Xiao Yifei and said, "I want you to perform acupuncture on me." Ci Xin's tone was authoritative, as if not allowing others to refuse.
Hearing Ci Xin's demand, Xiao Yifei was taken aback, not understanding why Ci Xin wanted this. Seeing this, Ci Xin sneered again and said, "Are you curious." Of course, Xiao Yifei thought silently in his heart after hearing Ci Xin's words.
But on the surface, Xiao Yifei just nodded. Seeing Xiao Yifei nod, Ci Xin earnestly began to explain the Xiao Family's One Hundred and Eight Needles, "Since you're a descendant of the Xiao Family, you must know the family's One Hundred and Eight Needles. If so, then you definitely know what happens when all the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needles are gathered." Ci Xin stopped there.
But he knew that Xiao Yifei fully understood his implication. Sure enough, upon hearing Ci Xin's words, Xiao Yifei furrowed his brows. He had read about the One Hundred and Eight Needles and knew exactly what gathering all the silver needles would do. On the last page of the One Hundred and Eight Needles, there's a record of a technique.
Stimulating the most vital acupoints in the human body can greatly enhance a person's potential, even allowing those stuck at an impasse to break through it in one go. And this method requires gathering all the silver needles. Could it be that, thinking about this, Xiao Yifei glanced at Ci Xin, who appeared to be asking for money.
At this moment, Ci Xin resembled a terrifying beast, making one feel a chill. "What do you want?" Xiao Yifei frowned as he realized the situation was serious. Hearing this, Ci Xin's expression changed, and they laughed heartily, saying, "Of course, what I want is to break through to the Golden Elixir Realm. I've been stuck in this realm for nearly ten years."
Hearing Ci Xin's exaggerated tone, Xiao Yifei sensed something was off. After a while, Xiao Yifei said calmly, "Stop pretending; your true purpose is definitely not this." Upon hearing this, Ci Xin was stunned and curiously responded, "Oh, what makes you say I am lying?"
"Hmph, your skill already stands at the peak; there's no need to advance further. Besides, if you wanted to improve your Qi over the past ten years, you should have sought me out long ago, no need to wait until now." Xiao Yifei quietly explained his reasoning.
However, this calm explanation was completely correct. Indeed, Ci Xin hadn't aimed to break through to the Golden Elixir before because he felt this level was sufficient. But the appearance of one thing forced Ci Xin to seek a breakthrough.
"You're right, I must admit, you're really clever and observant." Ci Xin couldn't help clapping for Xiao Yifei. Hearing Ci Xin's words, Xiao Yifei smiled indifferently because now he didn't care about such things; he just wanted Ci Xin's reason.
"Alright then, now you can say why you want to break through to the Golden Elixir." Xiao Yifei gestured for Ci Xin to reveal the reason, upon which Ci Xin sneered and then slowly said, "At the very least, I didn't want to break through, but because of the appearance of a door, you heard right, a door."
Perhaps suspecting Xiao Yifei's disbelief, Ci Xin added a sentence. Ci Xin's reason was simply because of a door.
"A door?" Xiao Yifei was puzzled by this seemingly nonsensical statement. Why would someone want to break through for a door? Ci Xin seemed to see the confusion on Xiao Yifei's face and sneered again, "You find it strange, don't you? Why would the reason be a door?"
