Unknowingly, ten years had passed since the flood in the third year of Xingping.
Dazzling sunlight shone on the green tiles and red walls. Standing on the Yuzhou bridge, one could see the overhanging eaves, the shop sign flag fluttering in the air, the travelling carriages and horses, and the endless stream of pedestrians.
On both sides of the streets were teahouses, taverns, pawn shops, and so on. There were also many hawkers with large umbrellas on the empty space beside them.
The bustling streets extended along the Yuzhou River to the east and west, all the way to the quiet suburbs outside the city. However, there were still many pedestrians on the streets: some carrying loads, some riding ox carts and donkeys to deliver goods, some stopping to admire the scenery of Yuzhou River.
With the tall city tower as the center, rows upon rows of houses formed a unique alley.
On the west side of the street, there was a rather worn plaque with the words ‘Ji Shi Hall’ engraved on it.
“Pa! Pa! Pa!”
A series of abacus sounds came from the pharmacy.
The person who was tapping the abacus was a young man with delicate and handsome features. The most special thing about him was his eyes. They were long and thin, but the corners of his eyes were deep. When his eyelashes blinked, it was as if the clouds covered the moon.
The young man’s name was An Jing.
At this moment, he was standing in front of the medicine shop counter, tapping his abacus while recording the accounts.
“1.5kg of Cecelia is 300 dollars.”
“0.5kg of _ is 150 coins.”
“There’s still coriander in stock. I won’t buy it this time. Maybe I can save some money.”
“Pa! Pa! Pa!”
……
“Doctor An, do you want a wife?”
At that moment, a hurried voice came from outside the wooden curtain.
An Jing looked up and saw a skinny middle-aged man rushing in.
“As long as you give the word, I’ll send her to you immediately.”
An Jing looked up and smiled. “If you want to give some wives to me, then give me a few more.”
The person in front of him was Old Niu Fu, who lived in Yuzhou City. He was also a famous dentist. Some time ago, Niu Fu had a severe flu and a few doctors in Yuzhou City were unable to cure him. In the end, An Jing took action and managed to save his life.
“Didn’t Uncle Niu arrange several blind dates for you, but they all ended up failing? This time, Uncle Niu found a good family.”
Niu Fu said excitedly, “The lady and her entire family moved here not long ago and she is still single. She looks extremely beautiful, it is my first time seeing someone like her…”
An Jing asked suspiciously, “Uncle Niu, are you serious?”
Some time ago, An Jing also went on blind dates four or five times, but in the end, they all ended futile.
There were two reasons why men treated women.
If she could arouse his body’s instincts and if he could control her with one hand.
Uncle Niu spluttered and said, “This lady is called Zhao Qingmei. She comes from a scholarly family and is proficient in everything, including sewing, chess, calligraphy and painting. She’s a true lady from a wealthy family.”
“Doctor An, if you can marry her, you’ll be blessed for eight lifetimes.”
An Jing asked curiously, “Are you lying to me?”
A lady from a respectable family, sweet and gentle, and talented is simply the ideal woman for a man.
“Why would I lie to you? You are my savior.” Uncle Niu patted his chest and said confidently, “If I lie, I will be struck by lightning.”
“Alright, I’ll give her a meet.” An Jing nodded.
After all, An Jing knew very well that he had to meet her in real life to testify the claims.
“Doctor An, since you’ve agreed, I’ll arrange for the two of you to meet tomorrow. It will be in the Datong Teahouse. Don’t forget this appointment.”
When Uncle Niu heard An Jing’s words, his face was full of smiles. “I’ll go back and inform them now. She is still waiting for my reply.”
“Uncle Niu, wait!”
“Get ready for tomorrow, I’ll bring her over.”
Uncle Niu ran away in a hurry, not giving An Jing any chance to speak.
“Sigh, Uncle Niu.”
An Jing looked at the hurried back and sighed. “He was in such a hurry. I haven’t asked him.”
An Jing was his name in this life.
The original owner of this body had died in the flood long ago, and he had taken over this body after transmigrating.
As soon as he came to this world, he experienced the biggest plague in the Jiangnan Province in decades. His parents died in the plague and he was lucky to survive. He even opened a medical center in Yuzhou City and lived a peaceful life.
As his thoughts fell, he flipped the black Earth Book in his mind to the first page.
Cultivation: Rank One
Fate: Lucky Star
Ability: Genius
Martial Skills: Sword Drawing Technique, Hidden Sword Technique, Sword Control Technique, Nine Character Sword Technique, Nine Heavens Movement Technique, Zenith Heaven Cultivation Technique, Qi Restraining Technique
Prompt 1: The host’s fate has yet to take root (after one year). When performing martial arts, no one is allowed to know the host’s identity. Otherwise, you will receive a black opportunity.
Prompt 2: A marriage is coming soon. If it succeeds, the host will be able to obtain the azure opportunity.
…..
Black opportunities were bad luck. There would be a fatal disaster, an undeserved catastrophe.
An Jing followed the instructions from the book and cultivated step by step. He had been practicing medicine in Yuzhou City and had never revealed his cultivation and strength. In the eyes of ordinary people, he was just an ordinary doctor. No one knew that Doctor An was actually a Rank One expert.
Last night, the second hint appeared in the Earth Book, so he did not reject this marriage.
The azure opportunity was the greatest opportunity he had encountered so far. It might even allow his cultivation to advance further.
“I don’t know what this azure opportunity is, but marrying such a beautiful wife will never be a loss.”
An Jing tidied up the account book and looked at the sky. “It seems like it’s going to rain soon. I need to pack up.”
……..
Yuzhou River, Misty Rain.
The Yuzhou River was also known as Yuzhou Creek, which was about 70 square kilometers. The Yuzhou River ran through the entire city and one could see the beautiful scenery on both sides of the river. If one rode a black boat_ from the south to the north, the scenery would be extremely stunning.
Drip! Drip!
The raindrops fell on the black canopy quickly and rhythmically. It was not dull and instead gave off a comfortable feeling.
A young woman stood at the bow of the ship, her eyes looking at Yuzhou City in the misty rain.
She was elegant and poised, possessing a refreshing aura.
She was like a new moon glowing faintly, like a flowering tree stacking snow, a beauty who was impossible to find.
“Tan Yun, do you know? In all these years, the most unforgettable thing is the rain in Jiangnan.” The woman extended her jade-like hand and let the raindrops fall onto her palm. She murmured in her heart, “And that unforgettable person…”
The servant looked at the endless haze and felt a little lost. Sometimes, people could not share their feelings.
It was just like how she did not know why her sect master liked the rain and did not understand why he would go through so much trouble to marry an ordinary physician.
Could it be that the sect master wanted to experience the lives of ordinary people?
However, he was just an ordinary doctor, an ordinary person. The two of them seemed to have a huge gap between their statuses.
She had many questions in her heart, but she knew that this was not something she could ask.
“Sect Master, this rain will probably last for a few more days,” Tan Yun said softly.
Tan Yun was an expert ranked 84th in the Jianghu1 of Great Yan. She was quite famous in Jianghu by relying on the Buddha Sword. However, she was trembling in fear in front of the lady and did not dare to slight her.
“Then let it rain for a while longer.” The woman said indifferently, “After the rain passes, the sky will clear.”
“When the rain passes, the sky becomes clear.”
Tan Yun could not help but mutter to herself.
‘Does the Sect Master mean that the rain of our Demon Sect has passed? Should I welcome the clear sky of my Demon Sect?’
A few decades ago, the Demon Sect was expelled from the Jianghu of Great Yan. Three years ago, the Demon Sect Master mysteriously disappeared and there was no news of him anymore. For a period of time, the Demon Sect that was renowned throughout the world fell to the bottom. It was only when the new Sect Master in front of them took over the position that the Demon Sect gradually recovered some of its vitality.
A gentle breeze blew past, stirring up a few strands of hair, causing the water to gently ripple.
“Tan Yun,” the woman suddenly said.
“Yes,” Tan Yun hastily replied.
“Did you hear that?”” What?” Tan Yun was stunned for a moment and quickly looked around.

With her Rank Two cultivation, there were not many people in the world who could hide within three meters of her.
The woman raised her head and took a deep breath, greedily enjoying the moment.
“It’s really addictive to hear this wind through your bones.”
