"Can’t drink with me? Nonsense!"
Tian Kui cursed carelessly, "Kid, are you even a man? What are you afraid of that old thing for? So what if we drink? That old relic won’t know, by the time we go back, the booze smell will be long gone."
"This..." Zuo Qingyang looked helpless.
"Stop dawdling, hurry up and drink." Tian Kui angrily shouted.
"Alright." Zuo Qingyang reluctantly agreed.
"Qingqing, Bai Tu, and you, kid, you all drink too, after we drink, we’ll get to business!" Tian Kui laughed happily, waving his hand, several wine jars flew over.
"After drinking?" Zuo Qingyang and Bai Tu’s eyes bulged.
One wine jar was bigger than their stomachs, were they trying to drink them to death?
After downing a whole jar, they would look like pregnant women, how could they get to business then?
Looking at the jars on the table, Liu Qingqing smiled bitterly, "Tian Kui Uncle-Master, how much have you been drinking? Have you been drinking here the past few days?"
"What else?" Tian Kui shrugged.
His gaze turned to Gu Chenfeng, Tian Kui smiled earnestly, "Kid, you’re the genius that Unaging Immortal has taken a liking to, right?"
Gu Chenfeng quickly cupped his hands and said, "Gu Chenfeng greets Uncle-Master Tian Kui."
"No need for ceremony, just have a drink with your Uncle-Master, and buy him some good wine when you’re free, haha!" Tian Kui laughed heartily, showing no air of being an Uncle-Master, more like chatting and drinking with friends.
Gu Chenfeng chuckled lightly, "This disciple remembers."
Liu Qingqing slightly furrowed her eyebrows and whispered, "Little Junior Brother, don’t get too close to Uncle-Master Tian Kui, or you’ll become a drunkard in the future."
"What drunkard? I’m the Wine God! Undefeated throughout the Cultivation Realm!" Tian Kui immediately corrected.
Mentioning the Wine God’s title, Tian Kui looked proud and smug.
"Drunk all day long, Wine God huh." Liu Qingqing rolled her eyes.
Zuo Qingyang took a sip and then asked, "Uncle-Master Tian Kui, what force are those three from the Nascent Soul Stage from?"
"Don’t ask so much, drink first. It’s rare for your Uncle-Master to come out, if I don’t drink till I’m dead drunk, I’d be letting myself down. Come on, raise the jars and drink." Tian Kui cheerfully said, raising a jar and gulping it down.
Zuo Qingyang and Bai Tu looked dumbfounded.
If the Uncle-Master drank , they had no choice but to follow suit.
"Water Attribute Spiritual Power, no wonder Uncle-Master Tian Kui has such a good alcohol tolerance, drinking so much doesn’t matter." Gu Chenfeng mused, recognizing that Tian Kui had Water Attribute Spiritual Power.
More than ten minutes later.
Zuo Qingyang and Bai Tu were already tipsy, one more drink and they would be drunk. Original content can be found at novel·fiɾe·net
Only Gu Chenfeng was sipping slowly without issue.
Liu Qingqing quickly stopped them, "Uncle-Master Tian Kui, Senior Brother, stop drinking, we still have business to attend to."
"Can’t get drunk, don’t worry Qingqing." Tian Kui laughed happily, about to lift the wine jar and drink.
But as Tian Kui lifted the jar, he suddenly noticed something, his lips curled slightly, and he smiled seriously, "The show is starting."
"The show is starting?" Zuo Qingyang and the others were puzzled.
Tian Kui put down the jar and said seriously, "The three Nascent Soul Stage attackers of Qiushui are from the Wang Family of the Imperial City, but they are not Wang Family members, they are assassins hired by the Wang Family."
"The Wang Family!" Zuo Qingyang and Bai Tu’s faces jolted.
"Assassins hired by the Wang Family?" Liu Qingqing frowned and speculated, "Uncle-Master means that the Wang Family was also at the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association at the time, because they were afraid of our Divine Sect, they hired people to act?"
"Yes, you could say that." Tian Kui nodded, "The Wang Family has a high status in the Imperial City and is a subsidiary family of the Su Family. Without evidence, we can’t do anything to them."
"A subsidiary family force?" Gu Chenfeng slightly furrowed his brows.
Bai Tu anxiously asked, "Uncle-Master Tian Kui, what do we do without evidence? With the Su Family backing them, we can’t do anything to the Wang Family?"
"Don’t worry." Tian Kui continued, "Although there’s no evidence, I infiltrated the Wang Family and got good news. The Wang Family’s steward is meeting them today, supposedly to give them a reward, but in fact, to make sure they never talk."
"Silencing them?" Zuo Qingyang frowned, "The Wang Family is afraid we’ll find out the truth! If they can’t get the treasure, they’ll silence us!"
Tian Kui smiled slightly, "That’s right, without evidence, whatever we say doesn’t matter, the Imperial City has many forces, and our Ancient Divine Sect alone can’t intimidate all the forces in the Imperial City."
"So, before the Wang Family’s steward makes a move, we must stop him, not only to make the Wang Family pay, but also to kill those three from the Nascent Soul Stage."
"Uncle-Master Tian Kui, you’re amazing!" Liu Qingqing said excitedly.
"It’s not a false reputation, being the Wine God undefeated throughout the Cultivation Realm." Tian Kui looked proud and smug.
Gu Chenfeng guessed at this moment, "Uncle-Master Tian Kui, if I’m not mistaken, those three should also be at the inn."
"Oh?" Tian Kui was slightly surprised, looking at Gu Chenfeng, "Good kid, very smart, you actually guessed it."
Zuo Qingyang chuckled, "No wonder Uncle-Master Tian Kui isn’t worried at all, turns out they’re at the Eclipsing Moon Inn."
"The Wang Family’s steward has already gone up, you all stay put." Tian Kui smiled faintly, and his figure mysteriously disappeared.
"So strong!" Gu Chenfeng thought to himself, "His breath disappeared instantly, such an amazing body technique, Uncle-Master Tian Kui’s cultivation is much stronger than Qiushui Uncle-Master, probably at the Soul Emergence Stage Realm."
An elderly man was walking up to the third floor.
This person was the Wang Family’s steward.
The Wang Family’s steward arrived at the room opposite where Gu Chenfeng and the others were.
As soon as the steward reached the door, it was opened from inside.
"Please come in, Steward Wang." Mu Shan respectfully made a gesture of invitation.
Steward Wang nodded with a smile, but the next second he suddenly made a move, striking Mu Shan’s chest with a palm.
The fierce blow caused Mu Shan to spit blood and his body to shoot backwards like a missile, even if Mu Shan had sensed it, it was already too late.
The room was filled with two panicked voices.
This sudden turn of events caught them both off guard.
Mu Shan was already injured, now with a palm strike from Steward Wang, he instantly lost his combat abilities.
The leading man immediately shouted angrily, "Wang He, what do you mean by this?"
Wang He entered the room and said with a light smile, "Tian He, the Patriarch says, only the dead never leak secrets."
Upon hearing Wang He’s words, Tian He and Zhao Xian’s faces changed drastically.
The Wang Family wanted to silence them.
As Wang He finished speaking, he suddenly unleashed terrible spiritual power, rushing towards Tian He with great speed.
Wang He was late in the Nascent Soul Stage, his power and speed surpassed Tian He and the others, killing the two injured was as easy as squashing an ant.
A figure suddenly appeared, blocking Wang He’s attack.
The fierce palm strike was countered, and Steward Wang’s old face changed, forced back several steps.
"Who?" Steward Wang angrily shouted with a dark expression.
