The three elders who had fallen on the training ground angrily followed to the council pavilion. On the steps, the peak masters said something to the disciples and told them to disperse. Geng Qi was in a daze for a long time before he slowly came back to his senses.
Who cares if he's the male lead or who he is? If he's set his sights on someone, he's his. It's not like the male lead will come after him with a knife after he's settled down!
In short, Rong Yu and the female lead have no entanglement. He might not be completely straight, so I still have a good chance!
Thinking about all this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Gao Yao noticed that he was sometimes deep in thought, sometimes frowning, and sometimes laughing. He didn't understand what was wrong with him and looked at him with a strange expression.
Geng Qi was in a great mood and suddenly hugged Gao Yao, saying, "I'm hungry. Senior Brother Gao, do you know where I can get something to eat?"
Junior Nephew Gao: "..."
New disciples who haven't reached the Core Formation stage don't practice fasting. The Tianzhi Sect has a special canteen for them, so Gao Yao took him there.
Geng Qi wasn't actually hungry, but he was a little craving something. He figured Rong Yu hadn't returned to Shangxu Peak, and it wouldn't be fun for him to go back alone, so he just wanted to find a place to kill time.
He also had food in his storage bracelet, but nothing could be more appealing than hot, delicious food. In order to highlight the difference between cultivators and ordinary people, even the servants ate better food than the high-ranking officials and nobles in the mortal world!
Crispy fried crucian carp, asparagus and chicken, lotus seed paste, and osmanthus in the moon, among other delicious dishes, filled the table. In his good mood, Geng Qi had a great appetite!
Seeing that he was eating happily, Gao Yao was afraid that he would get tired of eating, so he gave him two more bottles of spiritual dew.
Geng Qi looked at the two extra bottles on the table, took one, took a sip, and exclaimed in surprise, "The sect still has wine?"
“It’s not wine,” Gao Yao waved his hand and said, “It’s Cun Gan Ling Lu. Although it’s brewed with wine, it can enhance cultivation and doesn’t make you drunk.”
Only a select few direct disciples within the sect are allowed to drink it.
Geng Qi, unaware of what was going on, took a sip and smacked his lips.
Isn't this still alcohol?
It's very effective at removing oil.
He can't eat anything too greasy, nor can he drink alcohol. So he's happy to drink more of this kind of food that can cut through the grease without making him drunk.
Gao Yao initially refused to sit with him, but he was forced to sit at the table and made to drink "wine". Gao Yao was forced to compromise, but he seemed to have overestimated his junior uncle's drinking capacity.
After drinking two bottles of the spiritual dew, Geng Qi's face was already flushed.
He realized it himself, his head was spinning: "Didn't you...didn't you say you wouldn't get drunk?"
“The Spirit Dew doesn’t intoxicate.” Gao Yao was also a little flustered. He himself had been forced to drink quite a bit, but he didn’t feel anything at all.
It's not entirely his fault. If it were Geng Qi from the previous world, he could easily down half a jin of baijiu without much trouble. But in this body, he was forbidden from drinking by the guardians of the Demon Palace since childhood, and he never drank alcohol because he was prone to sleepiness. As a result, he has not touched a drop of alcohol for over a hundred years, and his alcohol tolerance is... zero!
Geng Qi shook his head, his vision spinning more and more violently. Realizing he couldn't drink anymore, he quickly threw the bottle away.
The sound of the jade bottle shattering attracted the attention of others. The appearance of Shang Xufeng's new treasure in the cafeteria was already eye-catching, but they dared not look too closely because of their different statuses. At this moment, several pairs of eyes turned over at the same time, and they were all stunned when they saw the drunk boy in front of the table.
Her already fair and delicate face was now tinged with a blush from the alcohol. The pink at the corners of her eyes and the blush on her cheeks complemented each other, and her dark eyes glistened with moisture as she blinked incessantly, making her incredibly alluring.
Although she is only fifteen years old and her youth has not yet blossomed, it is not hard to imagine what an unparalleled beauty she will possess in the future!
Seemingly noticing their gaze, Geng Qi frowned unhappily, lightly tapped the table, and pouted, "I'm not eating anymore, let's go!"
He threw down his chopsticks and got up, but as soon as he stood up, he plopped back down.
Dizziness!
A few harmless chuckles rippled around him, but Geng Qi refused to stand up any longer. He slowly pushed the bowl and chopsticks in front of him to the edge of the opposite table, rested his elbows on the table, leaned over, and fell asleep.
Gao Yao: "..."
The disciples: "..."
The series of movements were fluid and practiced, clearly indicating that it wasn't the first time they had done it.
Gao Yao was at a loss. This place was quite far from Yuling Peak, and he couldn't lead his men up there. He certainly couldn't go to Shangxu Peak either. But the man just lay down and fell asleep without telling him where they were going next!
He was even less comfortable handing it over to someone else, given Changyi's current status, there were plenty of people who wanted to curry favor with him or suppress him!
Just as they were hesitating and struggling, a flash of silver light seemed to pass by outside the door, and in a daze, there was already a person at the door.
All the noise was instantly silenced by the sudden appearance of this person. After a moment, everyone came to their senses, stood up, and bowed, saying, "Grandmaster Uncle."
Gao Yao hurriedly cupped his hands in greeting: "Grandmaster Uncle, Junior Uncle..."
Rong Yu immediately knew what had happened. He glanced at the broken jade bottle on the ground, then stepped forward and picked the person up.
"Let's go back."
This was said to Gao Yao.
Gao Yao agreed, but didn't dare to get up.
It wasn't until the master and apprentice left that the others came to their senses.
"Grandmaster Uncle is so good to Junior Uncle!"
"With such a low alcohol tolerance, did he really complete the Jade Ladder?"
"Senior Brother Gao, what's your relationship with this Junior Uncle? Is he a good person?"
"Senior brother..."
The cafeteria instantly descended into chaos. Gao Yao looked pale and kept saying he didn't know much. He was pestered with questions for quite a while before they finally let him go.
On Shangxu Peak, Geng Qi was originally fast asleep. He was carried back to Qingyou Pavilion, but just as he was about to touch the cold jade bed, he woke up with a start.
