Fei Yin's
Ch. 3 - Dantian & Lan Meilian
The current foundation of Fei Yin was at around 30% each except for the Marrow Cleansing which was below 25%. Indeed in one year he could reach the required percentage in order to ascend to Spirit Root, but Fei Yin planned to refine his 4 foundations.
That night while meditating, Fei Yin thought hard, looking for a way to obtain resources to train her body. He was aware that even though he had the status of being the son of the Patriarch of the Fei Clan, he could not depend on his status forever.
“Yin-gege.” from beside her bed Fei Yang whispered.
Fei Yin opened her eyes and looked at her sister who was lying facing her, “Company me looking for crickets.”
Fei Yin was silent for a moment hearing his sister's request, after which he stood up while smiling widely at her, “Come.” Fei Yang hurriedly got up and held back his delighted cry while jumping up and down.
The next day before the sun rose completely, Fei Yin was already walking around in the residential area of her clan. He felt such great nostalgia when he saw the clan members greeting him one by one.
After being content to walk around for an hour, Fei Yin decided to sit cross-legged under a tree near the deserted clan training field. Indeed, that day was a holiday so the training of clan members was also closed.
Fei Yin planned to increase his qi capacity first so that his Forging Body process could run smoothly and not be too time-consuming.
With the best breathing technique from his previous life Fei Yin started to gather qi into his dantian. The amount of qi he could accumulate was now so limited, as was his gathering speed.
“See from its current shape.. My dantian has only undergone two overhauls.” murmured Fei Yin after successfully fulfilling her dantian with qi.
The overhaul itself is a process to increase the qi capacity that can be accommodated by dantian. The more changes that are done, the greater the qi that can be accommodated by dantian.
In addition, overhauling the dantian was a bad thing. Fei Yin was now confident that he could remodel his dantian five times, if more than that then his dantian would suffer damage.
Fei Yin continued the qi gathering until the excessive qi started to come out from his dantian. After experiencing that, Fei Yin hurriedly strengthened her dantian with all the qi she held.
Next came the muffled voice of Fei Yin's body accompanied by a faint smile that was splattered on her face. Fei Yin continued her meditation to gather a little qi as she had already run out of qi after overhauling her dantian.
Dantian reshuffle process at that time spent 5 hours, “It will take 2 weeks of meditation if I want to meet the dantian and do another reshuffle.”.
Surely Fei Yin did not want to spend so much time just meditating in order to be able to remodel her dantian, “Hai.” a girl of the same age as Fei Yin greeted her, resuscitating the old spirited boy.
“Oh..? Hello.?” Fei Yin greeted back but he could not remember who this girl in front of him was.
The girl seemed to snort angrily, “Don't tell me you've forgotten me?!”
Fei Yin scratched her head while recalling the face of the girl inside her mind, ‘Ah.. She's one of Fei Yang's wives.’
The one in front of Fei Yin at the moment was Lan Meilian, a girl who was once bound by an arranged marriage with Fei Yin but instead became the wife of Fei Yang.
Fei Yin only smiled wryly when she remembered that. He used to not care about Meilian at all, even though the girl was half dead trying to do anything and care about her.
Now Fei Yin did not plan to attract Meilian because she would feel strange. After all, it was already attached to Fei Yin's mind that the girl was the wife of her sister. He would not be able to think of spending the night with Fei Yang's wife.
“Why May?”
Meilian only snorted in annoyance and sat down beside Fei Yin. It turned out that he was carrying a basket of rattan containing side dishes and rice, “I brought lunch.. I was at your house but you weren't around. So Aunt Wei asked me to find you and bring you lunch.”
Fei Yin felt haru as well as a warm feeling in her chest, “Mother.” indeed no other figure cared more for her except her mother in the two lives she had lived.
“Let's eat together.” Fei Yin took one ceramic bowl and filled the rice into it then gave it to Meilian.
Fei Yin chuckled amusedly and again thrust the bowl at her, “Ayo.” while biting her lips in shame, Meilian received the bowl and took the side dish to taste.
“By the way why are you looking for me?” after swallowing his first mouthful Fei Yin opened the conversation.
“This is my father's request.. He wants to say something important to you.”
Fei Yin frowned, “Why did he not contact the Patriarch? Patriarch can be angry if any decision happens beyond his knowledge.”
Lan Meilian shrugged her shoulders, “It should be so.. But isn't Patriarch Fei doing closed-door training since a month ago?”
Fei Yin was speechless, “Really..?” he showed an awkward smile.
The father of the twin brothers Yin & Yang rarely plays a direct role in the lives of both of them, so it is difficult to know what the man is doing even though he is his own son.
Fei Tian was too busy in taking care of the clan and also improving his own abilities, so all the affairs of his children including martial training and fighting techniques were taken care of by Chu Weilan.
In his first life Fei Yin hated Fei Tian's attitude like this, but after the truth was revealed he felt regret at not being able to help his father in dealing with the clan's problems as a son.
‘I won't let that happen.’
“Why are you silent?”
“Nothing.. Let's continue eating.”
After ten minutes Lan Meilian put down her bowl which still left a little rice. Fei Yin herself was still filling her bowl because she felt so hungry back then.
‘Yin.’ Meilian stared at the face of the boy who was eating voraciously for quite a while.
No one could argue that she had feelings for Fei Yin, even when she was Fei Yang's wife in her past life Meilian still wished for Fei Yin to be her partner.
“Let's go now.” The already full Fei Yin placed her bowl into the basket and rubbed her mouth.
“Ya.” Meilian nodded slowly.

Meilian led Fei Yin to a two-story luxury building with the name ‘Giok’ Treasure House.
The Jade Treasure House was a trade association that sold resources to fighters. The influence of the Jade Treasure House itself was enormous, even an empire would not be willing to look for trouble with them.
With such great influence, the Jade Treasure House had also built up its branches throughout the continent, making it the most influential and richest group.
The Jade Treasure House was also one of the groups that sustained Fei Yang's resources in his previous life. Fei Yin believed her sister had a great contribution to the association, or it could be because of her relationship with Lan Meilian.
Suddenly a desire arose to utilize Meilian so that she could easily obtain resources in Fei Yin's mind. But he abandoned his desire. Fei Yin was not sure that he could get much help from the Jade Treasure House through Meilian, after all he wanted to expand by his own efforts.
As soon as the two set a few steps inside the Jade Treasure House, a female servant approached them and greeted the two warmly.
“Come Young Miss Lan and Young Master Fei, Mr. Lan is already waiting.” The servant guided the two.
