He easily dealt with the two brothers, Wu Jiang and Wu Hai. In the face of their cries, Li Goudan viciously let out a sigh of relief. He punched and kicked the two brothers, and in the end, he directly took five hundred mid-grade spirit stones from them. Only then did the three of them swagger off.
After teaching the two brothers a lesson, Li Goudan was in a good mood. Along the way, he kept thanking Xiao Chen and even declared that he would drink with Xiao Chen until they were drunk.
In the face of Li Goudan's excitement, Xiao Chen did not say anything and just smiled. He understood Li Goudan's current mood. A person who had been bullied all year round could finally hold his head high. This kind of feeling must be very exciting.
Under Li Goudan's lead, the three of them quickly arrived at his residence. It had to be said that as the only son of the Eight Direction Stockade's Li Fang, Li Goudan's residence was indeed not bad. In this aspect, Li Goudan was much better than the others.
It was a small courtyard with a single door and courtyard. The environment was not very good and there were no decorations. It was indeed nothing compared to the outside world. However, in the Fengyue Mountain Range, such a courtyard was already very impressive.
In the entire Eight Direction Stockade, there were not many people who could own such a small courtyard.
After pushing open the door, Li Goudan warmly invited Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao in. He looked around the small courtyard. It was not big and there were only four or five rooms. However, it was enough for Xiao Chen and the other two.
Li Goudan's residence did not have a maid's uniform. After all, this was the Fengyue Mountain Range. There was no place to find a maid. Those who came here were all vicious people. It was simply wishful thinking to expect them to be maids.
Li Goudan first invited Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao to sit in the main hall. Then, he quickly ran to the kitchen and personally prepared the ingredients for the three of them.
Li Goudan was really used to living alone. He was very familiar with cooking. Therefore, it did not take long for him to prepare seven or eight dishes.
The only thing worth praising was the pot of meat stew. This was the meat of a demonic beast that was hunted by the Ba Fang Gang. Unfortunately, it was only a low-level demonic beast.
In the Fengyue Mountain Range, what people ate the most was demonic beast meat. After all, this was a continuous mountain range. Demonic beasts hunted humans, and humans hunted demonic beasts as well.
The dishes were ready. Next, Li Goudan took out a jar of good wine that he had kept for a long time. Although it was a good wine, it was just an ordinary wine in the outside world.
He personally poured a glass of wine for Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao. Then, Li Goudan took the lead and said, "Big Brother Xiao Chen, thank you so much for today. I, Li Goudan, would like to propose a toast to you."
Today, Xiao Chen had stood up for him. Regarding this, Li Goudan's heart was naturally clean. This guy was just that naive.
As he spoke, Li Goudan had already finished his glass in one gulp. Seeing this, Xiao Chen smiled and also finished his glass.
After drinking a glass of wine, the three of them began to eat and drink. Of course, most of the time, Xiao Chen and Li Goudan were drinking. As for Gu Lingyao, he only took a small sip each time.
Gu Lingyao did not like wine, so he naturally drank less.
The atmosphere was quite lively, mainly because of Li Goudan. At this moment, it was as if he had opened a clip and could not stop talking. He chatted with Xiao Chen randomly.
As they chatted and drank, the sky unknowingly darkened. At this time, Li Goudan was obviously a little drunk.
Perhaps because he was happy, Li Goudan did not use his spiritual energy to refine the wine. Therefore, at this time, Li Goudan's face was flushed red, and he was slurring his words.
However, it was also because of the alcohol that Li Goudan finally spilled the beans in front of Xiao Chen.
Sitting next to Xiao Chen, Li Goudan said emotionally.
"Big brother Xiao Chen, it's great. Being able to meet you is really a blessing that I, Li Goudan, have cultivated for several lifetimes. Today … Today, when big brother beat up Wu Jiang and Wu Hai, big brother, you know what I was thinking. At that time, I felt as if a big stone in my heart had been lifted. My whole body became relaxed."
Li Goudan kept talking. Regarding this, Xiao Chen was also quite helpless. Looking at the sky, it was already late. In the end, Xiao Chen had no choice but to directly knock Li Goudan out and carry him out of the hall.
He personally sent Li Goudan back to his room. After that, Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao also returned to their rooms to rest.
In the Wind Moon Mountain Range, Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao naturally could not sleep in the same room.
After returning to his room, Xiao Chen circulated the spiritual energy in his body. In the blink of an eye, his body was completely refined. Sitting on the bed, Xiao Chen began to cultivate.
After a silent night, Xiao Chen woke up early the next morning. As usual, he cultivated for a while in the courtyard.
Because there was still no news from the Forgotten Worries Restaurant, Xiao Chen could not make a move yet. He could only wait patiently.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed in the Eight Direction Stockade. During these three days, the three Dao Emperors sent by the Family Nangong had also arrived. Xiao Chen secretly met with them and had them settle down near the Eight Direction Stockade while waiting for their next move.
He did not expose the identities of the three Family Nangong. After all, who knew if there were any spies of the Qingma Gang in the Eight Direction Stockade?
The days seemed to have returned to normal. Although the power was in the Wind Moon Mountain Range, Xiao Chen enjoyed a rare moment of peace in Li Goudan's small courtyard.
This was very normal. Xiao Chen basically did not go out. For some reason, Li Goudan had actually started to cultivate with Xiao Chen. Regarding this, Xiao Chen did not say much and imparted some of his cultivation experiences to Li Goudan.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. On this night, Xiao Chen was cultivating with his eyes closed. However, at this moment, the door to his room was gently pushed open. At the same time, Xiao Chen, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.
An ordinary-looking middle-aged man stood in the room. His gaze was calm and indifferent as he looked at Xiao Chen. When their eyes met, the middle-aged man took the lead and bowed.
"Greetings, Young Master. I am a member of the Forgotten Worries Restaurant's Dark Hall. I am here on the orders of the Hall Master."
The middle-aged man took the initiative to reveal his identity. Then, he took out Su Zhen's token from his storage ring and handed it to Xiao Chen to prove his words.
After confirming the middle-aged man's identity, Xiao Chen said indifferently, "You have news about the Qingma Gang?"
Since Su Zhen sent someone here, there should be news about the Qingma Gang. Sure enough, when he heard Xiao Chen's words, the middle-aged man nodded slightly.
