Li Ze choked.
He glanced at Mu Nanyu thoughtfully.
Stop trying to hide it; he sees it clearly.
Senior Brother Mu's reaction was way too much!
He was incredibly curious about what he had done.
Li Ze unconsciously brought the wine glass to his lips and took a light sip, then the boy frowned.
I barely managed to hold it in and not vomit.
This wine...
"Whose family prepared this wine?"
Li Ze bit his tongue and asked Mu Nanyu in a low voice.
As the other person slightly raised his eyes, Mu Nanyu returned his smile, which was full of stories. He then slowly said, "Baili."
Li Ze's pupils contracted, and his thick eyelashes trembled.
Seeing his reaction, Mu Nanyu frowned: "What's wrong, Junior Brother?"
Is there something wrong with the alcohol?
Just as the man was about to take the wine glass to examine it, Li Ze stopped him.
The boy shook his head at him, mouthing "Don't touch it."
There were many powerful families present who were far more skilled than the two of them, so using telepathy was not safe.
Mu Nanyu nodded, casually pushed the cup aside, and then picked up a spiritual fruit.
Li Ze grinned and said only one sentence.
"It's fine wine, even better than the one my senior brother and I drank at Baili's mansion that day."
The boy returned to his seat and pretended to take another sip.
The internal spiritual energy circulates to neutralize the effects of the alcohol.
Li Ze lowered his eyes to look at the rippling sake, his fox eyes filled with a deep, unspeakable anger.
The alcohol itself is fine.
But that might not be the case for him and Senior Brother Mu.
That day, he and his senior brother went to Baili Mansion, and Baili Weifeng later gave them two fruits.
"Fellow Daoists, this Azure Nether Fruit has been treasured by my Baili family for many years. To express our gratitude for saving my sister and me, please accept it."
The Azure Fruit is for purifying the mind and spirit.
Beyond the Foundation Establishment stage, cultivators will encounter inner demon tribulations when undergoing the tribulation of their cultivation realm. Failure to do so will severely damage their foundation.
The Azure Nether Fruit can help cultivators avoid failing to overcome their inner demon tribulations.
Yes, it's about avoiding it directly.
But a single fruit can only serve its purpose once.
The Azure Nether Fruit Tree bears fruit only once every thousand years, and there are only one or two such trees in the major secret realms.
Therefore, while the Azure Nether Fruit is not rare in the cultivation world, it is also hard to find.
Li Ze and Mu Nanyu rescued the people and felt no guilt about the Baili family's overtures.
Moreover, as direct disciples of the Cangmiao Sect, they had seen all sorts of good things, so this kind of return gift was not too valuable to them.
It can be said that the balance was just right.
With the fruit following, the cause and effect were considered settled.
However, it turned out to be a trap!
Li Ze gripped the wine glass so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
The Azure Nether Fruit is still in his storage ring. When he received it, he inevitably picked up the fruit's scent.
Not even half a month had passed, and the lingering aroma of the Azure Fruit still lingered.
He has been noticeably more focused during his practice these past two days.
The fruit is good fruit, and the wine is good wine.
Once they collide... ha!
I never imagined the Baili family was so despicable; they were determined to force the issue.
Baili Weifeng kept a close eye on the movements on Lizhe's side.
Seeing the boy drink the wine in one or two gulps, a triumphant smile appeared on his face.
He glanced at Baili Niaoniao beside him; he knew his sister liked Lizhe.
That way, she won't be wronged!
Su Ruoruo sat in the Su family's seat, next to Su Shan, the head of the Su family.
"Ruoruo, you are truly your uncle's good niece, hahahahaha!"
Su Shan was surprised that Su Ruoruo agreed to his proposal so easily, without even having to use threats.
