Chapter 43 Drunkenness

Feng Huaijin dealt with his junior brothers and sisters to Su Yu's side and in front of him, managing to stop the demon youths in their tracks just three steps away.

The demon disciples were sensible; they wanted to befriend the strong. If they angered the other party, being beaten would be one thing, but being captured and taken to the Hall of Law Enforcement would be quite another.

"Senior brother, I'm here! Our direct disciples are over there!"

The other disciples tacitly dispersed.

Although the direct disciples hold high status and great authority, they are more closely bound to the Yuanfu and are considered the core trainees of the Yuanfu. After graduation, they often teach at the Yuanfu or maintain close contact with it.

Even if other disciples are talented, if they don't stay behind to cultivate after graduation, they will have no further connection with Yuanfu.

Su Yu was looking around the restaurant when he heard the sound. He saw the demons disperse, leaving only his two junior brothers behind.

One of them had a sharp look and blond hair, while the other, standing a little further back, was his round-faced junior brother who had come to invite him.

"I am Wan Qin, and this is my junior brother Zhou Yuan. Senior brother, you should have met him before. We are both disciples of Instructor Mo Genli."

"Please come this way," Wan Qin said respectfully, leading the way. "If you two senior brothers have any favorite dishes, please have the waiter add them."

Zhou Yuan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, tonight's expenses will be paid by our personal disciples, and with the support of our mentor, we have ample funds."

"Thank you all for your hard work," Feng Huaijin replied with a faint smile. "However, we will also pay for it. There's no reason for our junior brothers and sisters to treat us to the first meal."

While the others exchanged pleasantries, Su Yu locked onto the twelve characters that were automatically following her from behind and then cleared her mind.

Although Feng Huaijin doesn't have many deep interactions with others, he is indeed very adept at communicating with others.

Because Su Yu often speaks with a cold tone, which is easily perceived as provocation, Feng Huaijin takes care of all her communication needs when she is out in public.

This habit remains the same today.

Unfortunately, Su Yu still needs to be mindful of her cold and aloof persona.

But they're all junior brothers and sisters, and he's gentle and cheerful, so it should be fine, right?

Su Yu was itching to make a move.

Su Yu saw Hua Xian waving enthusiastically and Yu Ronglan nodding quietly in acknowledgment.

Su Yu kept a straight face.

Ah, I remember now, even though they are junior brothers and sisters, many of them are actually older than him.

I lost interest instantly.

"This is Yu Ronglan, a disciple of Instructor Hai Jialan, and Hua Xian, a disciple of Instructor Yun Yan, and..."

Wan Qin dutifully introduced his disciples and then led his senior brothers to his table.

Su Yu still remembered that she had come to recognize the demon. Although she had no expression, she accepted every toast offered by everyone, earning her a lot of admiration.

At this point, Feng Huaijin would no longer stand in front of Su Yu to socialize, but would instead listen quietly beside her.

The demon's wine... is quite strong.

The drinks on the table included not only Baiweilou's signature fruit wine, but also those brought from home by several wealthy disciples, enough to get even cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage or above drunk.

After several rounds, Su Yu had already drunk a group of drinking enthusiasts under the table.

The last one managed to say, "Senior Brother... you can drink a lot, burp... I'm impressed!"

After saying that, he collapsed to the ground and never got up again.

Su Yu twirled a delicate white porcelain wine glass in her hand, unaware that a faint blush had risen on the sides of her cheeks.

Although Su Yu's eyes still looked clear and calm, Feng Huaijin knew that he was definitely drunk.

"Brother, stop drinking."

Feng Huaijin couldn't stand it anymore and whispered a reminder to Su Yu.

The lobby was now a scene of utter chaos.

Su Yu only vaguely heard some sounds.

Hmm, then let's do it again.

His raised arm was pressed down, and Su Yu lifted his eyelids, staring unhappily at the demon who had stopped him, his aura radiating a chilling indifference.

The other demons at this table had already unconsciously lowered their voices or mingled with other tables.

Feng Huaijin said softly again, "I won't drink anymore."

Su Yu lowered her eyelids and remained motionless.

This is the default attitude.

Feng Huaijin breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to Su Yu to sit here. He would go and say goodbye to the demon, and then take him back when he returned.

When Wan Qin and the other demons realized that Su Yu was drinking enthusiastically, they had already slipped away to other tables to drink and play drinking games. Hua Xian and Yu Ronglan understood Su Yu's intention to acknowledge the demons, and after saying goodbye, they also went to play by themselves.

Feng Huaijin found Wan Qin to say goodbye. Wan Qin tried to persuade him to stay for a few more words, and then they parted ways.

He hurriedly went back to find Su Yu.

I saw a demon woman and her brother.

They're very close!

He only left for a moment!

A fire ignited in Feng Huaijin's heart, and he stopped walking properly. In a flash, he used his demonic energy to teleport over, grabbed Su Yu's slender waist, and pulled him into his arms away from the woman.

He told himself that it was normal to want to communicate with his brother, since the scene was too noisy and he needed to calm down.

Calm down my ass. Normal conversations don't involve getting that close.

Their faces were practically touching.

Feng Huaijin immediately looked down at Su Yu in his arms. The other man slowly blinked and closed his eyes. Only after confirming that he had simply fallen asleep from drinking too much did Feng Huaijin feel relieved.

He gritted his teeth and glared at the woman who had suddenly appeared, saying, "What do you want to do to him?!"

Lin Yi stared blankly at the handsome demon youth in front of him, as if he could see sparks of anger flashing in his eyes.

There was also a hidden jealousy.

Why would someone be jealous of the ambiguous relationships that appear around their brother?

As a sworn brother, he was confined to the position of family.

Furthermore, this is inappropriate.

Taking a step back is not an option.

So, in a daze, I told myself that this was just a normal possessiveness of relatives, a way of protecting their loved ones.

Seemingly having figured something out, Lin Yi suddenly smiled leisurely, tossed a strand of hair, and sat down in the chair Su Yu had previously been in with a rather alluring posture. Raising an eyebrow and smiling ambiguously, she said, "What do you think?"

"It's just a casual fling, you're the younger brother, you shouldn't be so nosy, right?"

Of course, all those casual flings were lies to him.

The truth is that the person in charge of the Ghost Market in Yuancheng ran away to another place to guard rare and precious materials a few days ago, and Lin Yi has temporarily taken over the management of this Ghost Market.

Lin Yi was simply there to eat and enjoy himself, to make up for the overtime he had worked. He happened to run into the Ghost Lord of the Ghost Market, so he came to urge the Ghost Lord to hand over the Ghost Talisman on time.

He had already been traveling for several days, and if he didn't get some soon, his inventory would be depleted.

If there are good ghost talismans, who would want to use ordinary ones?

It was too noisy around, and the Ghost Lord wouldn't open his divine sense to her when she tried to communicate, so she had no choice but to get closer to speak.

After all, the Ghost Lord was discovered by one of her branch cities, and the promotion and raise were immediately granted. The Ghost Lord was practically her God of Wealth, and she couldn't be more respectful than ever.

Oh, and also, she's several generations older than them, so she's not interested in little kids.

But I'm interested in playing with children.

The guy in front of her, who was holding their Ghost Lord so tightly in his arms, tsk, judging from her experience, his feelings were definitely not simple.

But he probably hasn't realized it yet.

That would be fun.

"Dew, water, affection, fate."

Feng Huaijin read it out slowly and deliberately, his eyes growing increasingly fierce, as if he wanted nothing more than to tear the other person to pieces.

Lin Yi hissed inwardly.

This kid is pretty fierce.

"You frivolous demon, do you even deserve to be with my brother?"

He's just another demon with wild ideas trying to seduce Su Yu.

Feng Huaijin remembered Su Yu's rule against easily hurting people, so he barely suppressed his anger, coldly said this, and turned to leave with Su Yu in his arms.
