"Isn't this Qin Yue's junior sister?"
The harsh words were spoken, and Qin Yue's expression instantly turned cold.
"Cheng Ze," Qin Yue gritted his teeth.
"I never expected you to come back alive. It's really surprising."
The person named Cheng Ze in the center revealed a hint of a sarcastic smile.
Although dressed in elegant clothing, this person's appearance is unremarkable, and the voice that comes out of him is also very unpleasant.
"How did it go? Did you find the 'Red Spirit Grass'?"
"It's you... It's definitely your doing." Upon hearing Cheng Ze's words, Han Qing's face turned livid.
"No no no, how can this be called playing tricks? Who told you to eavesdrop on other people's conversations? I'm teaching you to use your brain to do things."
"Besides, a beauty like you, I can't bear to harm you, how could I?"
Speaking, Cheng Ze's gaze wandered over Qin Yue, with a hint of malice in his eyes.
Qin Yue has always been the one he wanted to get. But he always stood on the opposite side, so it's not his fault.
Originally, the method that harmed the three of them was none other than Cheng Ze's doing. It was he who came up with this plan and presented it to Xiao Yun.
"Bang~"
Upon hearing Cheng Ze's words, Lei Man erupted with a fierce momentum, clearly very angry.
"Damn it, it's you shameless bastard again."
"How come, do you want to fight here? Don't forget, sect prohibits private fighting." Cheng Ze stared at Lei Man with wide eyes.
"I challenge you to a duel on the Life and Death Platform, do you have the guts!" Lei Man roared at Cheng Ze, looking extremely fierce.
“Life and Death Platform..” murmured Luo Chen.
“sect regulations prohibit private fighting. However, for those with grievances needing to settle disputes, two places are provided for duels: one is the ‘gambling arena’, and the other is this ‘Life and Death Platform’,” explained Han Qing to Luo Chen.
"Generally speaking, when both parties have grievances, they will choose to resolve them in the 'gambling arena.' Unless it is a matter of life and death, no one will choose to go to the 'Life and Death Platform,' because once on the 'Life and Death Platform,' one of the two will die, and life and death are determined by fate."
"Previously, Cheng Ze and Xiao Yun wanted to harm us at Beast Ridge. From that moment on, we have become mortal enemies." A fierce light flashed in Han Qing's eyes.
"Life and Death Platform!"
Mentioning the 'Life and Death Platform', a hint of fear also flashed in Cheng Ze's eyes. His strength is also at the Gathering Yuan Realm, fourth grade, but he knew that his chances of surpassing Lei Man were not great.
"Ridiculous, a dog of a fallen family dares to battle with me."
"What, are you afraid?" Lei Man sneered.
"If you dare not fight, just say it directly, no need to be so hypocritical."
"Fear? I fear that killing you would dirty my hands," Cheng Ze spat out, but with a hint of uncertainty.
"Ridiculous. Would a dog's paw also find it dirty?"
"You."
"You what? I'm asking if you dare to fight."
At this moment, Cheng Ze's face appeared somewhat contorted as he pointed at Lei Man, too angry to speak, and finally flung his sleeve fiercely.
"If you don't dare to hit me, then get lost," Lei Man spat out, then walked straight towards Cheng Ze, brushing past him.
"Hmph, don't get too cocky. Sooner or later, I'll make you cry." Watching the figure of Lei Man and his group leaving, Cheng Ze said fiercely.
"Go inform Senior Xiao Yun, tell him that Qin Yue and the others have returned."
Just you wait!
After the four of them left, Lei Man headed straight towards the city. At this moment, he let out a breath, seeming to have vented his anger at Cheng Ze.
Luo Chen was somewhat surprised, not expecting Lei Man to have the audacity to propose a life-and-death battle.
"Boss, this is Jiu Xuan City, on the outskirts of the sect."
When the four entered the city, Luo Chen's mouth finally widened in surprise. All around, there was a cacophony of noise. Countless shops and restaurants lined the streets, with people coming and going on the ancient road. Many merchants were engaged in trade, completely reshaping Luo Chen's worldview.
"We'll find a restaurant to rest first, and then I'll introduce you to my senior brother. You can wait for me here," said Qin Yue.
"Okay," the three nodded.
"Don't worry, boss. With your strength, joining the sect will definitely be no problem. Just leave it to Qin Yue," Lei Man said boldly to Luo Chen.
"Come on, boss. Let me treat you to the signature dish of Jiu Xuan City," Lei Man laughed heartily and pulled Luo Chen in a certain direction.
"“Drunken Immortal Inn” Looking at the large three characters on the signboard in front, Luo Chen murmured, at this moment they were standing under a pavilion.
"Hey hey." Lei Man chuckled and, taking Luo Chen by the arm, walked into the building.
In the attic, at a glance, it was full of people, and everyone at each table was chatting and laughing, making it very lively.
Lei Man led Luo Chen and Han Qing into the attic and found an empty table to sit down.
"Waiter, bring me three pots of 'Yunxian Brewing'," Lei Man called out to the person hurrying between the tables.
"Alright, please wait a moment, sir."
Before long, three pots of blue and white porcelain jars were placed in front of Luo Chen.
"This is... wine!"
"Big brother, this is the signature drink of the Drunken Immortal Inn. Give it a try," said Lei Man as he picked up a jug of wine and poured a cup for Luo Chen.
Luo Chen chuckled and picked up the cup, then drank it all in one go.
"Such a mild wine." Luo Chen only felt the wine entering his mouth, very cold, but as it went down his throat, it emitted a warm sensation. Very comfortable.
After savoring it with closed eyes, he opened them to find Lei Man and the others looking at him in surprise.
"This wine is pretty good." Luo Chen chuckled.
"That's not right." Lei Man poured himself a bowl as well, and then quickly drank a few big mouthfuls.
"About this." Lei Man carefully sensed for a while, then spoke again.
"What's wrong, is there something wrong with this wine?" Luo Chen looked puzzled at the two of them.
"Big brother, have you ever had this wine before?"
"No, this is my first time."
"Then why don't you get drunk?"
"Hehe, Luo Chen, you don't know, this wine is called 'Yunxian Brewing' and also 'One Time Pour,' because, you see, most people get drunk the first time they drink it.
But Luo Chen, this is your first time drinking it, and you're not drunk, it's really surprising," explained Han Qing.
"It turns out like this," Luo Chen murmured. Suddenly, he remembered his grandfather who still lived in the bamboo forest.
His grandfather also loved wine. Luo Chen remembered that his grandfather had a small wine cellar, where he kept a collection of fine wines. When he was young, he sneaked in and got drunk, and in the end, his grandfather carried him out and gave him a good scolding.
As he grew older, his grandfather allowed him to drink and often invited him to drink together. The difference was that his grandfather never got drunk, while he got drunk every time.
Thinking of this, Luo Chen couldn't help but smile. He looked at the wine glass in his hand.
"The wine is good, but it's still far inferior to my grandfather's collection."
