Su Yun walked in a daze. He didn't even know how he returned to the inn.
He laid on the bed and fell asleep.
In his dream, Su Yun and Yun 'er walked together. Both of them were famous experts in the mainland and were the most envied immortal couple. Su Yun's lips curled up slightly.
After lying there for an unknown period of time, Su Yun woke up and ordered a table of delicacies on the second floor of the inn. Once again, he took out the wine gourd from his storage bracelet that was not full.
"Who said that quitting alcohol is more sorrowful? It's obviously getting drunk to solve a thousand sorrows!" Su Yun muttered to himself.
"After getting drunk this time, when I wake up, I'll still be a man of indomitable spirit!" Su Yun looked at the wine gourd in his hand. His face was red and he was already a little drunk.
Su Yun occasionally looked out of the building. There were people coming and going downstairs, but it had nothing to do with him.
Although spirit cultivators had a high alcohol tolerance, Su Yun didn't use spirit energy to refine it. Hence, after a round of drinking, even Su Yun fell asleep on the table.
The second floor of the inn was a place for guests to eat. Hence, there were more people and it was more chaotic.
Hence, no one noticed that an ordinary hand with some calluses stretched out towards the wine gourd that Su Yun placed on the table.
Shi Qi had long noticed Su Yun who was drinking to drown his sorrows. More accurately, he noticed Su Yun's wine gourd. The gourd wasn't big, but he saw that Su Yun kept drinking. He drank for a long time and drank a lot.
How could a small ordinary wine gourd hold so much wine? It must be a treasure!
Shi Qi was already an old hand in this business. After thinking about it, he waited patiently at the side. Because this person who was drinking had a higher cultivation than him. He needed a chance.
Now, the chance was here!
His hand was already very close to the wine gourd. Shi Qi was afraid of alarming Su Yun and his movements were even slower.
The wine gourd was beside Su Yun's hand. At this moment, it was even closer to Shi Qi's hand.
"I finally got it!" Shi Qi's heart was already bursting with joy. If he sold this treasure, he would be able to fool around in Fengyue Brothel for another few months!
"Pa." A hand grabbed Shi Qi's wrist that was holding the wine gourd. The wine gourd had not left the table. Shi Qi's hand was still holding the wine gourd, but his hand was grabbed by another hand.
"You are indeed a ghost in broad daylight! I've been paying attention to you for a long time! "Su Yun raised his head and said expressionlessly.
"You … you're not drunk!" Shiqi tried to break free from the hand that was grabbed, but it felt like it was fixed. No matter how hard he tried, Su Yun's hand still didn't move.
"You have waited for me for so long. If I didn't get drunk, wouldn't I be disrespecting you?" Su Yun said with a faint smile.
"Since you've extended your third hand to me, I'll have to teach you a lesson."
Shi Qi knew he was no match for him, but since he dared to barge in broad daylight, he naturally had some life-saving means.
Shi Qi waved his left hand, and a pungent smell immediately filled his nose. Then, he hooked his right hand back and rolled backward, breaking free from Su Yun's grip.
Before the people in the inn could stop him, Seven Stones had already dashed out like a wisp of smoke.
Trying to escape? It wouldn't be that easy.
Su Yun put away the wine gourd and dashed out from the second floor. He spread his spiritual perception and immediately locked onto a direction and chased after Shi Qi.
Su Yun followed him at a distance that was neither too far nor too close, just enough for Shi Qi to sense him.
At first, Shi Qi was somewhat disdainful, thinking that he had overestimated that guy. After so long, he still couldn't catch up to him.
Then, he ran for his life, only to realize that no matter how hard he ran, that guy always followed behind him at a leisurely pace like a ghost. A sense of helplessness and despair weighed down on his heart like a huge rock.
Finally, Shi Qi was about to break down. He had already given up on the idea of escaping.
Shi Qi went straight into a dead end. The alley was very deep. Shi Qi stopped and turned around, panting with his body bent over.
"Little brother! What do you want! "Shi Qi asked with a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Why aren't you running anymore?" Su Yun's mood was much better now as he asked with a smile.
"Even if I run to death, I can't outrun you!" Shi Qi said helplessly.
"How do you know if you don't try?" Su Yun seemed to have recovered from Yun 'er's departure.
"Anyway, I was here just now. I can't beat you. Instead of being teased by you, I might as well turn myself in."
"Come on, if you want to kill me or scratch me, do as you please!" Shi Qi unbuttoned the front of his robe and pulled his clothes open to both sides.
"Are you so sure that I won't kill you?" Su Yun was amused and laughed.
"Then let's make a bet!" Su Yun pulled out his rusted iron sword and was about to make a move.
"Little brother, wait." Shi Qi's voice was loud and clear, but his feet were trembling.
"Oh? Do you have any last words? "Su Yun said with a smile that was not a smile.
"I'll tell you a secret. Can you let me go?" Shi Qi felt that Su Yun wouldn't kill him, but he didn't dare to bet. If he lost, he would lose his life.
"Tell me about it. If it's worth more than your life, I'll let you go." Su Yun was a little interested.
"Recently, I felt that the City Lord's Mansion was a little strange, so I dared to 'visit' him last night." Shi Qi stole a glance at Su Yun with a guilty conscience. Seeing his expression, he continued, "It doesn't matter what I saw, but it scared me!"
"The City Lord was lying on the bed. His face was black, and there were some faintly discernible black lines that covered almost all of his skin." Shi Qi seemed to recall the scene from last night and felt a little scared.
"After the servant left, I found that he was talking to himself. It seemed like two people were talking, but it was all from the City Lord's mouth."
"Not long after, his skin changed back and forth between normal and pitch black. However, he was unconscious the entire time!" Shi Qi still felt a little creeped out when he recalled it.
"Don't you think it's scary?"
"This is the secret that you want to exchange for your life?" Su Yun asked calmly.
"Uh …" Shi Qi was speechless. He was already prepared to fight to the death.
"The City Lord's life is indeed worth more than your life. You can go," Su Yun said.
Shi Qi was stunned. He didn't understand what Su Yun meant.
"What? You don't want to go? "Su Yun asked.
"Oh, oh! Thank you for not killing me! "Shi Qi felt as if he had been pardoned. He ran wildly outside.
A few streets away, Shi Qi sighed and patted his chest. "I finally got rid of this god of plague."
"However, what did he mean by that?"
"Who cares! If I meet him in the future, I have to hide far away! "Shi Qi muttered to himself. He couldn't calm down for a long time.
"The City Lord should be Huang Zhan's father," Su Yun thought. Listening to this day ghost's description, it was somewhat similar to what Uncle said when he was unconscious. Could it be …
"Looks like I'll have to make a trip to the City Lord's Mansion." Su Yun had long wanted to pay a visit to the friend he met in Lin Yuan. After hearing this news, Su Yun became even more determined.
"It's getting late. Let's go back to the inn first. I'll go take a look tomorrow." Su Yun walked slowly back to the inn, his mood much more relaxed.
"Hm?" Su Yun had just returned to the inn when he felt a slight vibration from his storage bracelet.
Su Yun took out the Heaven Seizing Sword. The sword automatically floated in front of him.
"Yixie! You're awake? " Su Yun was surprised. It said that it would be asleep for a long time. It didn't seem to be that long.
"Yes. It's all thanks to that rank 5 Reiki." Yixie's voice sounded in Su Yun's mind. It sounded a little ethereal.
"Rank 5 Reiki? Could it be that the rank 5 Reiki was taken by you? "Su Yun suddenly realized. No wonder he felt that something was wrong with the Reiki that day.
"You're actually still alive! That's surprising. "Yixie said.
"What do you mean? Should I be dead? "Su Yun didn't understand.
"Your deal with it helped me relieve a lot of pressure. Speaking of which, I still have to thank you. If it weren't for you distracting a part of its consciousness, even with your father's help, it would have taken a long time to suppress it." Yixie said.
"The 'it' you're talking about, is it that pitch-black consciousness?" Su Yun asked.
"It was a priest of the Void Spirit Devil Dragon Clan in ancient times. As for its strength, the current you can't imagine. I didn't expect that a trace of its consciousness would invade your mind and you would still be fine. I really underestimated you. "
"If that's the case, I actually took a trip to the gates of hell." Su Yun recalled with some lingering fear.
"That City Lord must have been entangled by a strand of its consciousness that slipped through the net." Yixie had actually woken up when Su Yun was drinking. He only chose to appear at the inn after hearing the news.
"Yes, I think so too. I'm going to take a look tomorrow." Su Yun said.
"Speaking of which, you're the main culprit." Yixie teased.
"Who knew that you were suppressing such a thing in the Heaven Seizing Sword." Su Yun said helplessly.
"Let me deal with that thing tomorrow!" Yixie said.
The Heaven Seizing Sword needed to absorb the essence of heaven and earth to recover. Under Yixie's request, Su Yun once again carried the sword on his back.
