"Master. Master." Zhou Boran came in front of Ye Beixuan, knelt on his knees and said, "Master, please accept me as your disciple."

Several people were full of questions. What kind of disciple was this?

Ye Beixuan said in a deep voice: "Get up, you and I are not destined to be master and disciple, and you are so many years older than me."

Zhou Boran remained kneeling on the ground and said, "Master, the one who has achieved success comes first. If you don't accept me as your disciple, I will remain kneeling on the ground forever."

"Then kneel down!" After saying that, Ye Beixuan prepared to turn around and leave.

"Master!" Zhou Boran hugged his thighs and cried with tears and snot.

"Let go, let go." The people around him were laughing so hard that their chests were cramped. Ye Beixuan was really tortured by this funny guy and could only perfunctorily say, "I really can't accept you, but I can give you a book as a gift. You can speak for me."

"Really?" When he heard that Ye Beixuan was giving him a book, his body froze on the spot, his body trembling slightly. He was in tears just now, but suddenly his face seemed to be injected with fresh colors, like a peach blossom quietly blooming in spring, with a hint of redness.

Ye Beixuan, as a storyteller, has only stopped updating one book in his life, and that was Jin Ping Mei. This was because Mr. Qin's investigation was too strict at the time, and it was a thorn in his heart. No matter how well he told the story, he had to tell it to the end. This was his bottom line and principle as a storyteller. Now that he had this opportunity, he naturally had to finish Jin Ping Mei.

He also took out the book he had prepared long ago and handed it to him, saying: "You must spread this Jin Ping Mei throughout the world. When I travel around in the future, this story will be familiar to everyone. And the author of this book, Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng, will be famous all over the world. Then I will accept you as my disciple."

"Thank you, Master." Zhou Boran bowed and said respectfully, "I will definitely spread this book throughout the world."

"Go away!" Ye Beixuan waved his hand and sent him away.

"I'm a student, so I'll take my leave." Zhou Boran bowed respectfully, took a few steps back, and turned around to take his leave.

"Come out!" After Zhou Boran left, Ye Beixuan said to a pillar not far away. They were all cultivators, so how could they not know that a weak mortal woman was following them?
But everyone knew that she was most likely here to find Ye Beixuan, so no one tried to see through her.

A figure in plain clothes slowly emerged from beside the pillar. It was an extremely beautiful woman. Li Xianglian frowned. As a woman, she was born to be protective of her food. She had not even backed down from her best friend, Princess Yunshang.

She slowly walked up to the group, bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Ye, I am Zhang Piaopiao, your servant, to greet you."

"What do you want from us?" Ye Beixuan asked doubtfully. He probably didn't know her.

"I heard the story you just told, sir, and would like to ask for your advice. Oh! This is just a small gift, not a token of respect." Zhang Piaopiao suddenly stretched out his hand and took out a large ingot of silver and handed it over, and even Jieyan next to him had his eyes lit up.

"Oh? What do you want to tell me?" Ye Beixuan did not take the money. After all, what if he took it and couldn't give him any advice? His attempt to pretend to be cool failed. What would he do then?
Seeing that Ye Beixuan didn't take it, Zhang Piaopiao held Ye Beixuan's hand and stuffed the silver into his pocket, whispering softly, "It's like this, I am a person from this Rujia Red Mansion."

Li Xianglian clenched her fists, her jealousy flaming. Even Ye Beixuan could sense the cold gaze. "I, too, have a man like the Li Jia in your story. Now I'm facing the same predicament as Shi Niang. I don't know what to do. Could you offer some guidance?" Zhang Piaopiao stated her purpose without pretense.

How would I know how you make the decision? Ye Beixuan was speechless for a while, asking for advice, he didn't even know who to ask for advice, but at the same time he was thinking of a plan to pua.

Suddenly, a lightbulb above his head lit up, and he said slowly, "The answer is actually in your heart, isn't it?"

"As the saying goes, a moth flies to a flame. The reason you asked me this is because you already knew the answer. You just can't bear to give your all without getting anything in return."

With a thud, Zhang Piaopiao suddenly knelt on the ground, her face pleading, "I know he must be playing with me, but I really can't stop the love in my heart. I know he is just toying with me, but I still can't help but jump into the gentle trap he wove. I beg you to help me break it."

Break the situation? How can this be broken? Ye Beixuan was speechless. This was just like those frauds in his past life. If someone was determined to transfer money, you couldn't stop them.

So he said in a serious tone: "Please forgive me for being unable to help you."

When Zhang Piaopiao heard this, she immediately looked disappointed.

Ye Beixuan then slowly said, "A person who pretends to be asleep can never be awakened. If one day you stop pretending to be asleep, then you won't need anyone else's help to break the situation. Remember, when people are insincere, only money won't deceive you."

After saying that, Ye Beixuan turned around and left. When masters fight, they will definitely stop when the time is right. So the master can only say half of what he wants to say. This is the only way to brainwash the opponent. Too much talk will lead to mistakes. He had nothing more to say.

Zhang Piaopiao stood there in a daze, muttering, "Pretending to be asleep? Hahaha, am I not the one pretending to be asleep? I've been foolishly deceiving myself, deceiving myself that he truly loves me. Sir, you're right. When people are insincere, only money won't deceive them."

What Ye Beixuan didn't know was that from then on, the world lost a passionate woman, but gained a scumbag woman.

On the way, Jin Quan said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "Mr. Ye, why didn't you persuade that woman just now to become a good person? People like us who practice Taoism should encourage others to be kind. Why do you encourage them to pursue money?"

Ye Beixuan frowned slightly. This guy always found fault with him. So he paused, looked at Jin Quan, and asked in a calm tone, "Mr. Jin, do you know what a man's two greatest hobbies are?"

"I don't know." Jin Quan glanced at Quitting, who shrugged his shoulders and indicated that he didn't know.

Ye Beixuan said in a deep voice: "A man's first hobby is to persuade prostitutes to become good women."

"And the second one!" Ye Beixuan glanced at Jin Quan with ill intentions, his expression playful, and his tone tinged with a hint of joking as he spoke word by word, "The second one is to drag the good family into the water."

After saying that, Ye Beixuan ignored Jin Quan's face which turned blue, white, and red, and turned away.

Li Xianglian covered her mouth and tried to suppress her smile as she left. The young monk who had quit smoking kept chanting "Amitabha" loudly beside Jinquan as he left.

Jin Quan was left standing there in a daze for a long time. He still couldn't understand why the beautiful woman didn't love him even though he had everything he wanted.

After a moment of hesitation, he looked at the people walking away like a punching bag and immediately shouted, "Wait for me."
