When Xiu Qiyu returned, three or four wine jars on the table were already empty. Ye Xiruo was still tightly holding a wine jar in her hands, her face flushed and her eyes glazed over.
"How did you drink so much?" Xiu Qiyu snatched the bottle from Ye Xiruo's hand.
"Let go, let go, let go, I want to drink more."
"Alright, you've had too much to drink." Xiu Qiyu, somewhat flustered, picked up Ye Xiruo and headed towards Ye Ruo Palace. They naturally used sword steps along the way, but they were still spotted by many, leading to much speculation.
The people of the Pill King Palace are increasingly convinced that Xiu Qiyu and the young master are a match made in heaven, with a deep and abiding affection. Other sluts who covet Xiu Qiyu's beauty will have to get out of the way sooner or later. Otherwise, they are not to be trifled with, as alchemists are not to be trifled with.
However, I never expected Elder Xiu and the young master to make such rapid progress; it's truly an eye-opener.
Ye Xiruo was carried back to Ye Ruo Palace by Xiu Qiyu.
"Mingxi—"
"Elder Xiu, what's wrong with the young master?"
"You've had too much to drink. Go to the kitchen and get a bowl of hangover soup."
"yes."
Even in Xiu Qiyu's arms, Ye Xiruo was still restless, muttering something under her breath.
Xiu Qiyu hadn't expected that Xiao Yezi would drink so much wine without her noticing. If Zishu saw this, he would be heartbroken. She was treating the top-grade spirit wine like water.
Xiu Qiyu's fingers slowly traced the face he knew so well and was so infatuated with. In just one month, they would be getting married. Just thinking about this made Xiu Qiyu's once unwavering sword heart soften. In this world, only Xiao Yezi was his weakness.
Xiu Qiyu's hand finally rested on Ye Xiruo's alluring red lips, glistening with moisture: "Drowning your sorrows in alcohol, can you feel it too?"
Xiu Qiyu shook her head, but in the end she couldn't help but kiss him. The soft touch and familiar scent made Xiu Qiyu's movements a little more impatient.
In her dazed state, Ye Xiruo felt as if a large mosquito had appeared on her face, sucking her blood. It was so uncomfortable that she didn't hesitate to slap it.
They should be dead by now!
Xiu Qiyu touched half of his face, somewhat incredulous, as he had just been hit by Xiao Yezi.
"Oh, Brother Xiu Qi, what are you doing here?" Ye Xiruo opened her sleepy eyes, looking like she hadn't woken up yet.
Xiu Qiyu: "..." At this awkward moment, Xiao Yezi woke up.
"You're drunk, I'll carry you back."
"Haha, I knew it! Where's the wine? I can still drink?"
"You've finished drinking, that's all."
"It's gone? No way. Go buy some more for me, buy some alcohol to drink."
"The winery manager ran away, and there's no wine left."
"Uh." Ye Xiruo's already not very clear mind instantly turned into mush.
"There's no more wine, but I still want to drink. Drink up! We're finally getting married, I'm so happy, so happy! Let's drink! Come on, let's drink together!"
"Yes, we finally got together, and we'll be together for all eternity. Don't worry, I'll never leave you." Xiu Qiyu kissed Ye Xiruo's face.
"It itches." Ye Xiruo pulled Xiu Qiyu's head away and fell back asleep.
Xiu Qiyu's feelings at this moment were truly indescribable. She couldn't let Xiao Yezi drink so much alcohol in the future. When she drank, she became unrecognizable to everyone, from friends to enemies—how could that be allowed?
Soon, Mingxi brought back the hangover soup. After feeding Ye Xiruo two bowls of the soup, Xiu Qiyu tucked her into the quilt, wrapped her up, and instructed Mingxi to take good care of Ye Xiruo before leaving Ye Ruo Palace.
As Xiu Qiyu stepped out of the Ye Ruo Palace, a heavy object crashed down in front of her.
"Senior Brother Zishu, what are you doing here so late?"
"Beware of thieves." Zishu gritted his teeth. Who knew that at this late hour, this beast would want to do something to Xiaoyezi.
"If Xiao Yezi knew how worried Senior Brother Zishu was about her, she would be very happy."
What's wrong with her?
"He drank too much and is sleeping now."
Zishu turned and left. It's good that nothing happened. If anything happened, it was all Xiu Qiyu's fault. Why did Junior Sister drink? It must be because of that scumbag Xiu Qiyu.
"It's best not to leave the Pill King Palace before you and Junior Sister get married." As the only Divine Master on this continent, Junior Sister's every move is watched by countless forces. Not every force is without ulterior motives; they all genuinely wish Junior Sister to find true love and for them to ascend to immortality soon. If they can't harm Junior Sister, Xiu Qiyu is the best target. Once Xiu Qiyu dies, Junior Sister will choose her destined partner again, and then it will be a fair competition based on individual abilities.
"Thank you, Senior Brother. I will take good care of myself." His life was saved by Xiao Yezi; it didn't belong to him at all. For Xiao Yezi's sake, he would never give in. He would live well and tear those people to pieces.
"Don't tell Junior Sister that I was here." Zishu's white figure quickly disappeared into the night.
The reason his master came looking for him so quickly was not to protect him and Xiao Yezi, but to tell him some very bad news.
After hiding for so many years, they still haven't given up on him, their pawn. The master's divination this time indicates great misfortune. On this continent, with the Pill King Palace and his protection, such a divination is impossible. Therefore, the danger comes from the outside world, from the Ice Spirit Continent.
However, his master also told him not to worry too much, as there are barriers between continents, and the barriers between higher and lower planes are particularly strong, which only unparalleled masters can break through. Even if they manage to break through the barriers and successfully find this place, their strength will be suppressed by the laws of heaven and earth of the Taiyan Continent, preventing them from unleashing their full combat power.
Therefore, although the hexagram indicates danger, it is not a dead end.
Why now of all times? He and Xiao Yezi are about to get married. How could he disappear at this crucial moment?
That's right. Master's advice is that the Heavenly Profound Realm will open at the end of this month, allowing cultivators below the Mahayana stage to enter and seek opportunities. The Heavenly Profound Realm will be open for three months. After three months, once the storm has passed, the people of the Ice Spirit Continent, unable to find any news outside, will naturally leave, and this crisis will naturally be resolved.
The Heavenly Profound Realm is extremely dangerous, and he was unwilling to let Xiao Yezi risk entering it with him. Three months had passed, and their wedding date had already been announced to the world. If they broke the engagement, what consequences would it have on the Pill King Palace and on Xiao Yezi? Xiu Qiyu could easily imagine.
As for the Little Leaf's space, it's not 100% safe either. Hiding in the Little Leaf's space isn't necessarily a viable option. It's practically an unsolvable dead end.
