Chapter 132: I Really Didn't Do Anything!
After staring for a while, the luxuriously dressed young man stood up, went downstairs to settle the bill, and left.
No one noticed his departure.
"Two esteemed guests, this is the Nine Hues Nectar you ordered."
A maid in a purple cheongsam was seen holding a white jade pot. The wine inside could be faintly seen swaying, and colorful rays of light shone through the thin jade pot wall, looking quite mystical.
This was a pot of wine that came with special effects.
"Are these clothes you're wearing also designed by Yuan?" Xu Xing asked.
The cheongsam maid was taken aback.
Guests who came here would ask about the wine, some small stories specifically spread by the Drunken Immortal Gate to increase their fame, and some even asked for contact information...
Cough cough!
But no one had ever asked this question.
At least, she hadn't encountered it.
"Yes, the cheongsam was indeed designed by Holy Emperor."
This Old friend is quite playful.
"Thank you for informing me."
"You are too kind."
After Xu Xing finished asking, Yuan Jun dismissed the cheongsam maid and personally poured him the wine.
The crystal-clear wine poured into the cup, creating ripples of colorful light. The clear wine aroma was very elegant, making one feel refreshed and cheerful upon smelling it.
A faint light screen appeared around the two of them, blocking the wine aroma from spreading out.
"I remember the last time I drank at the same table with Dao Brother was three thousand two hundred and sixty-five years ago," Yuan Jun said softly.
Xu Xing picked up the wine cup and paused upon hearing this. The scene from back then flashed through his mind.
"Indeed, it's been over three thousand years..." Xu Xing took a sip. The taste was sweet and clear. "If Dao Friend hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten it's been so long."
He put down the wine cup.
"I wonder if there's still a chance for our group to gather together again."
Drinking with Yuan Jun was over three thousand years ago. As for all the Dao Friend gathering together, that was even more distant.
"If Dao Brother invites, I believe my elder brother and all the Dao Friend will respond."
"That would only be a few of us," Xu Xing shook his head slightly.
The few Dao Friend from the Immortal Sect were indeed easy to contact, but the others were different.
Aside from Huo, the other Dao Friend were relatively reclusive and eccentric. Even if contacted, they would likely refuse.
Alas~
I'm afraid we'll really have to wait until the end to see each other again.
............
First floor of the tavern.
After chatting with Liu Yingying for a while, Mo Buyu found that he got along quite well with this 'new Senior Brother'.
The atmosphere between them was not as awkward as he had anticipated.
Liu Yingying explained this new era to him, as well as everything about the Righteous Path Alliance.
And he would talk about various experiences he and his Senior Brother had while venturing through the cultivation world during the ancient times, before the Great Desert Saber Gate joined the Righteous Path Alliance.
The danger when slashing demon cultivators, the joy when obtaining fortuitous encounters, and the nervousness in his heart the first time he took a flying boat to the Starry Sky.
"Flying boat?" Liu Yingying tilted her head and looked at him. "Aren't flying boats only used on the Central Continent?"
"At that time, the concept of starships didn't exist," Mo Buyu explained.
Because he had soul-searched that female teacher, he had some understanding of these things.
"Cultivators who want to travel interstellar must rely on flying boat-type Magical Artifacts, teleportation arrays, and the Starry Sky Jump Great Formation."
"Won't that be very slow?"
"No, the speed of a higher-grade flying boat in the Starry Sky should be faster than many starships."
"Then why are they all starships now?"
"Emm... I just came out of seclusion and don't know much, but I guess it's probably due to manufacturing costs."
The Materials required for a flying boat capable of interstellar travel are not of ordinary high grade.
"Oh, oh!" Liu Yingying nodded.
That's right, Senior Brother just came out of seclusion.
However, great cultivators really do know a lot. Although her parents and Martial Uncle are also high-level cultivators, they never talk about these things with her.
Thinking this, she picked up the wine cup on the table again and took a sip of the fruit wine.
From the beginning until now, she had drunk quite a bit, so much so that her eyes were now a little hazy.
She can't drink anymore.
Mo Buyu realized this.
"Yingying, how about we stop drinking and go back first?"
Because their appearances were too similar, he almost forgot that she was only at Qi Refining Ninth Layer.
"Okay!"
Liu Yingying was very obedient and immediately stood up swaying.
Mo Buyu did not step forward to support her, but instead sent out a stream of magical power, gently supporting her.
A few minutes later.
After paying the bill, Mo Buyu took Liu Yingying and walked out.
As a great cultivator of the Returning Void Realm, that amount of alcohol didn't affect him at all.
Conscious and clear-headed, he deliberately kept a distance and chose to use magical power to lead her.
However, because the magical power he sent out only had the effect of pulling and lifting, Liu Yingying easily leaned over and grabbed his arm.
He subconsciously wanted to circulate his magical power to shake her off, but seeing her delicate face, he hesitated for a moment.
She really looks like Senior Brother.
Slap!
Mo Buyu directly slapped himself.
'This is Shishu and Senior Brother's daughter!'
After repeating this sentence several times in his heart, he calmed down.
Just as he was about to push Liu Yingying away, he turned his head and saw three figures standing not far away, looking at him.
Shishu's expression was startled, but it quickly turned into anger, his eyes looking as if they wanted to devour him alive.
Senior Brother's expression was complicated, seemingly not expecting to see such a scene.
As for Master...
Emm...
At first, he seemed a little surprised, but it quickly turned into another expression - that was the look of approval he used to have when his saber techniques made progress.
"???"
"What did you do to Yingying!" Shishu's voice, suppressed with anger, reached his ears.
Mo Buyu was stunned.
No!
I didn't do anything!
"Alright Shishu, Buyu didn't do anything wrong, why are you so angry?"
"Senior Brother!" Liu Yang looked at his own Senior Brother in disbelief.
And this is called nothing?!
Liu Yu waved his hand and said with some dissatisfaction, "Matters of the heart have nothing to do with age or seniority, that's what you told me back then!"
"Master! I..." Mo Buyu wanted to explain.
"Alright Buyu, Master will always support you, just go ahead and do it."
"No! I..."
"You don't need to worry about Shishu here. He's old, he doesn't understand the matters of young people."
Saying this, Liu Yu looked at Liu Yang, his expression serious.
"Shishu, these are all things you told me back then, you're not going to deny it, are you?"
"I..." Liu Yang choked.
Indeed.
After Senior Brother woke up, he had indeed used these words to persuade him.
"That's my disciple!"
"Senior Brother, you're old, you don't understand the matters of us young people."
"You're still young?!"
"Compared to you, Senior Brother, aren't I young?"
The conversation from back then was still vivid in his mind. Liu Yang opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.
He never expected that the words he had once said would one day turn into a boomerang and hit him back.
In the end, he could only glare fiercely at Mo Buyu.
Mo Buyu: "..."
I really didn't do anything!
