Bu Fang speechlessly watched as Ni Yan hurriedly disappeared and the corners of his mouth twitched. He originally wanted to negotiate with Ni Yan and ask her to be the wine taster of the future wine he made … After all, Ni Yan seemed to be the only one who had tasted the "Dragon's Breath."
"No matter what, Owner Bu's wine is already the best wine I've tasted," Ji Chengxue said with a smile. Ji Chengxue smiled, raised his cup toward Bu Fang, and earnestly praised him before emptying the cup in one gulp.
Xiao Yue was the same. They had never tasted the "Dragon's Breath" before, so they did not know whether the two wines were good or bad. However, compared to the Bejewelled Nectar Wine they had tasted before, Bu Fang's Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine was the best wine. It was an incomparable wine and they believed that seeing was believing.
Bu Fang did not say anything and only nodded toward the two of them. "I know that there is always a higher mountain and a higher sky, so I will naturally not be blindly arrogant. I will work hard to research a wine. When the time comes, you can come over and taste it. I believe it will definitely surpass that 'Dragon's Breath.'"
Bu Fang's voice was very calm, just like how he usually spoke. He was reserved and confident, not showing off his abilities.
Ji Chengxue and Xiao Yue's eyes immediately lit up and they nodded. They were naturally very happy to be able to be Bu Fang's wine tasters. After all, based on the quality of the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine, a wine meticulously developed by Bu Fang would definitely not be bad.
Afterward, the two of them continued to drink while chatting with Bu Fang. Even though Bu Fang's answers were always cold and concise, they were already used to Bu Fang's style of doing things. Therefore, they enjoyed themselves to the fullest.
After finishing their wine, the two of them stood up and paid for the wine before bidding farewell to Bu Fang. With their hands clasped behind their backs, they contentedly stepped into the world of ice and snow outside the store.
As the cold wind whistled, the sleeves of their robes fluttered.
Bu Fang tidied up the celadon wine jars and stored all the plates on Ni Yan's table into the kitchen. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. That woman was so beautiful and had such a good figure, but her appetite was frighteningly huge. She was actually a genuine foodie.
"But … being able to eat is a blessing," Bu Fang thought.
After tidying up everything, he continued to curl up in front of the door and watched the monotonous snowy scenery of the alleyway. While waiting for customers to arrive, he was thinking about how to develop a wine that could surpass "Dragon's Breath".
…
On the streets of the Imperial City, a group of beautiful figures swayed as they walked. The snow that fell from the sky seemed to have turned into pink petals as they floated down. There seemed to be a melodious and heart-stirring bell ringing in their ears.
Her fair and tender feet stepped on the snow-covered streets of the Imperial Capital. The layer of snow sank slightly, but those small feet were still fair and translucent. Her ankles, which were like white lotuses, were tied with a red string and bells. When she walked, it made a crisp sound.
"Ding ling ling, ding ling ling ling."
A group of five people, in this windy winter filled with wind and snow, were draped in pink veils. Their faces were extremely beautiful, alluring and seductive. As they swayed their bodies, they vividly displayed their figures that could make one's blood boil.
The eyes of the passersby in the surroundings were glued to them. The five beauties with voluptuous figures swaggered through the streets, feasting the eyes of many men. There were even those with weak willpower who had two streams of crimson snakes dripping from their nostrils, causing the five stunning beauties to smile sweetly.
Xiao Yue and Ji Chengxue stood among the crowd and slightly frowned as they looked at the back of the five stunning and enchanting figures.
"The Joyous Union Sect is here as well. Furthermore, they are so ostentatious in the Imperial City. If father was still alive, he would have beheaded these demonesses a long time ago." Ji Chengxue shook his head and lightly sighed.
Once Emperor Changfeng passed away, those sects and forces became lively again. Now, they even dared to brazenly swagger in the Imperial City. However, the Imperial City was currently in a precarious situation and had no time to care about them.
"What are those women from the Joyous Union Sect doing in the Imperial City? Don't tell me they also want to get involved in the fight for the throne? "Xiao Yue asked with a cold expression.
Ji Chengxue chuckled as he slowly walked forward and indifferently said, "That second brother of mine even accepted the Soul Sect. What's a mere Joyous Union Sect to him? Perhaps the White Bone Palace and Death Soul Palace will also send people over … He has already thrown caution to the wind for the sake of the throne. He no longer cares about the so-called risk of asking a tiger for its skin. "
King Yu's manor.
King Yu sat in the main hall with a solemn expression as he solemnly looked at the experts from the sects who were emitting powerful auras.
With his back hunched, Hun Qianyun, who was wrapped in a black robe, said to King Yu, "King Yu, the experts from the Joyous Union Sect and the White Bone Palace have all arrived. The Death Soul Palace has suffered a great loss after being wiped out by Emperor Changfeng, so they won't be sending anyone over for the time being. However, among the experts who came this time, the Joyous Union Sect has two sixth grade Battle-Emperors, three fifth grade Battle-Kings, and dozens of Battle-Maniac experts. The White Bone Palace has two sixth grade Battle-Emperors, two fifth grade Battle-Kings, and a hundred Battle-Maniac experts. Together with the forces of our Soul Sect, they will definitely help King Yu ascend the throne."
King Yu calmly listened to Hun Qianyun's report. The more he listened, the more astonished he became. As expected of a sect with a thousand-year-old legacy. Even though they were constantly being attacked by Emperor Changfeng, they were still able to send out so many experts. There were even quite a few sixth grade Battle-Emperors among them.
One had to know that a sixth grade Battle-Emperor was already considered one of the top forces in the Imperial City.
"Hmm, very good. Then I'll have to trouble all of you experts. The rooms have already been prepared. Since you're tired from the long journey, you may head over to rest," King Yu said.
Among the five beautiful women from the Joyous Union Sect, one of them was a woman with a beautiful face and a good figure. She was wearing a pink veil that revealed her fair and slender legs and arms. She glanced at King Yu with her coquettish eyes and said, "I've heard that King Yu is dignified and domineering. Now that I've seen you today, I'm truly awed by King Yu's imperial aura …"
As the woman spoke, a hint of redness appeared on her face. She seemed shy and timid as she said, "I wonder if King Yu would be willing to have a chat with me tonight?"
"Tsk tsk tsk! Wei Xiangsi, you coquettish hussy, you actually dare to be so lewd in front of King Yu? With King Yu's standards, how could he possibly fancy you? Why don't you come down with me and accompany you? "
A sharp laughter rang out. The leader of the White Bone Palace laughed out loud as his eyes greedily lingered on Wei Xiangsi's voluptuous figure.
Wei Xiangsi's expression immediately turned cold. She glanced at the White Bone Palace and sneered, "The Bone King might be interested, but I'm not. With your frail body, I'm afraid you won't be able to."
Once those words came out, the Joyous Union Sect's people immediately burst into laughter. The Bone King was also so angry that his eyes were wide open. True energy immediately burst out from his body as if he was about to start a fight at the slightest disagreement.
Hun Qianyun did not say anything. The spirit fire beneath his black robe was slightly pulsating.
King Yu indifferently glanced at the two of them as the corners of his mouth curled up. Then he leaned his body to one side and coldly stared at the two of them with one hand supporting his left cheek.
It was unknown when a figure had appeared behind King Yu. That figure seemed to have merged with the void. After King Yu snapped his fingers, the figure instantly appeared in front of the two of them.
A dagger that emitted a chilling aura was pressed against the necks of Wei Xiangsi and the Bone King.
"If you help me, I'll naturally reward you. However … if you mess around in front of me, it's not like I can't kill you. Remember, I'm King Yu. You're just … remnants of the sect. "
As those cold words rang out, a terrifying aura and pressure burst out from King Yu's body. Vigorous true energy flowed as if it had substance.
The pupils of the experts from the sects below immediately constricted as they sucked in a breath of cold air. King Yu … had actually reached sixth grade Battle-Emperor!
...
The gates of the Xiao manor were tightly shut. A cold wind blew past, sweeping up white snowflakes.
A figure wearing a black veil and bamboo hat was quietly standing in the distance. His gaze was calm and filled with nostalgia as he gazed at the Xiao manor.
"What's wrong? Homesick? "Ji Chengxue's indifferent voice rang out from behind Xiao Yue as he stood beside him.
Xiao Yue replied with a hoarse voice, "Mother once said that she once asked father which prince he would support if the emperor passed away one day."
Ji Chengxue's eyes slightly moved as he imperceptibly asked, "Oh? And the result? "
Xiao Yue did not reply. Instead, he chuckled. He took off the black veil and bamboo hat and looked straight at Ji Chengxue with his bright eyes. "The result is … Mother fell into a deep sleep and I'm standing in front of you."
