Chapter 159 Young Man on a White Horse Drunk in the Spring Breeze (CP: Ye Dingzhi 8)

Wen Hujiu turned around and looked at Elder Chen, saying, "There will be no reward for answering correctly; instead, you will die."

Elder Chen felt a sharp pain in his hand after touching the wine gourd, and upon looking down, he saw that his hand had turned black from being corroded by the poison.

Elder Chen said angrily, "You are truly despicable; you actually poisoned me."

"That's a funny thing to say." He put the wine pot on the ground and dusted himself off.

"Forbidding the Wen family from using poison is like forbidding a swordsman from using a sword—it's all just being a rogue." Wen Hujiu took another sip of wine, looked around, and asked, "Who else is there?"

"Retreat." Upon seeing Elder Chen's death, Zi Yuji and Mo Qixuan immediately retreated.

"Oh? You're leaving already?"

Wen Hujiu stood with his hands on his hips, watching the two figures disappear into the distance. Remembering his little nephew, he quickly ran to Baili Dongjun's side.

Baili Dongjun: "Uncle."

"Uncle Wen," Ye Dingzhi and Li Yimei greeted him with a bow.

Wen Hu asked with concern, "Are you all alright?"

“I’m fine, Uncle,” Baili Dongjun replied.

Wen Hujiu looked at the four of them and was relieved to see that none of them were injured. "Ye Yun, Yi Mei, it's been a long time. You've all grown up so much."

Li Yimei asked, "How did Uncle Wen recognize us? You've only ever seen us when we were kids."

Wen Hujiu replied with a smile, "Besides the two of you, the only one who calls me Uncle Wen is Wenjun. Wenjun doesn't touch herbs, but the herbal scent on you is almost pickled into your skin."

Although he didn't recognize Ye Dingzhi and Li Yimei at first, the word "Uncle Wen" made Wen Hujiu connect the two of them with the little guy in his memory.

"You talk like you're making cured meat!" Li Yimei pouted, sniffed herself carefully, and indeed had a herbal fragrance, but it wasn't unpleasant.

Baili Dongjun looked at the warm wine pot and asked, "Uncle, what brings you here?"

"What do you think? Your family knows you only listen to me, so they specifically asked me to come and take you back. Luckily I made the trip, otherwise you would have let someone else take you away."

Wen Hujiu glanced at Lei Mengsha and the others who were chatting and laughing to the side, and asked, "Hey, what kind of strange people have you been messing with?"

"How would I know?" Baili Dongjun also found it strange. "Could it be because the drink I mixed was too delicious?"

“Uncle Wen,” Li Yimei said, “Dongjun should start practicing martial arts. Those people will still want to take Dongjun and Dingzhi away. Dingzhi has the ability to protect himself, but Dongjun only knows lightness skills.”

"Take me and Dongjun away? Why?" Ye Dingzhi asked in confusion. Was there anything special about him and Dongjun?

“Because you are all born with martial veins,” Li Yimei replied, looking at Ye Dingzhi. “Those people are from the Outer Heavens; they have been secretly searching for born martial veins all these years.”

"The reason is unknown, but since they know that Dongjun and Dingzhi are both born with martial veins, they will definitely try every means to take them away."

"What is a natural martial vein?" Baili Dongjun looked at Li Yimei blankly.

"A naturally occurring martial vein is an extremely rare and highly promising physique, symbolizing unparalleled talent and potential."

"People with innate martial veins can quickly master various martial arts, and even make rapid progress when practicing extremely difficult martial arts."

Ye Dingzhi explained that he had heard about innate martial veins, but he never expected that he and Dong Jun both had that kind of physique.

Wen Hujiu looked at Baili Dongjun and said, "Yimei is right. Dongjun, after I take you back to Gandong City, you will learn martial arts from your father."
