There's Fire Beyond the Sky. What a strange name.
Lu Xian's eyes flickered. "This doesn't sound like the name of a wine. It sounds like it's announcing something."
Yan Li's movements were gentle as he refilled their glasses. He smiled meaningfully and said, "After drinking it, doesn't it mean that our souls are burning as well? Isn't the Fire Beyond the Sky the Flame of Revenge? It constantly reminds us that even if we die, the hatred that is deeply imprinted in our souls cannot be erased! "
"I see!" Lu Xian's heart skipped a beat. He thought of his teacher's tragic death in Bingzhou and could not help but feel sad.
His eyes were ablaze with raging fire, as if he were a devil in the magma hell, spitting out flames one word after another. "Even if I have to go to the ends of the earth, I, Lu Xian, swear that I will tear the butcher who killed my master into pieces!"
Yan Xiaoyi's face was slightly red as if he could not handle the alcohol. However, he still said expressionlessly, "Oh, Young Master, Young Master, look at these two people pretending to be profound. They're really good at it. It's like they're watching a show."
Qin Yiqiu used his thumb and index finger to pinch his chin. He muttered, "Interesting."
Lu Xian ignored them and looked at Yan Li. He smiled faintly and said, "Little Brother Yan, you're also a passionate person. It's a pity that we're on different sides. Otherwise, I'd really like to get drunk with you."
"A murderous military advisor doesn't even have the courage to get drunk with the enemy?" Yan Li smiled and raised his glass.
Lu Xian's eyes brightened. He clinked glasses with him and downed the entire glass. The delightful taste opened all the pores on his body and exhaled hot air. He could not help but exclaim in delight.
Then, his cheeks turned red. He stood up dizzily and laughed. "Little Brother Yan, the enemy might not be the enemy. There are no outsiders here. If you're willing, you can call me Big Brother. If you're bored of Yongling, you can come to Xiliang. The gates of the Grand Council will always be open to you."
"Oh, Young Master, Young Master, Instructor Lu is drunk and starting to talk nonsense," Yan Xiaoyi said expressionlessly.
Qin Yiqiu felt a little dizzy as well. He burped and said, "It's … it's fine … If Brother Yan is willing to join us, that would be … great. Uh …"
Yan Xiaoyi looked at Yan Li expressionlessly and said, "You have ulterior motives. What do you want by getting us drunk?"
Yan Li rolled his eyes and said, "Idiot."
Yan Xiaoyi looked at him expressionlessly.
Yan Li's hair stood on end from being stared at, and he couldn't help but ask, "Why are you looking at me?"
Yan Xiaoyi said, "I'm looking at an idiot, not you."
Yan Li sneered and said, "It's really hard for you to know how to use my eyes as a mirror and give face to this kind of idiot."
Yan Xiaoyi said, "It must have been hard for you to say such shameless words that even an idiot wouldn't be able to say."
"One more, one more cup …" The two drunk men pushed their cups over.
Yan Li shook the jar and said, "The best wine in the world. Limited supply. Today, all of mine have been drunk by you!"
These words were really not a joke.
With Yan Chaoyang's wine making conditions, the amount of wine that could be supplied every day was not much at all. This small jar was accumulated by Yan Li for several days.
Even the amount that Yan Li could get every day was not much more than others.
Hearing that there was no wine, the two drunkards couldn't help but lay on the table, not sleeping, and murmured something in a daze.
Yan Xiaoyi picked up one on the left and one on the right, and walked towards the door of the backyard.
Before going out, he turned back to look at Yan Li and said, "No matter what your goal is, if you dare to touch them, I will kill you!"
Yan Li looked at him meaningfully and said, "We just met by chance and drank two cups of wine together, that's all."
Yan Xiaoyi carried the two and opened the door to walk out. The cold wind that came at him seemed to have woken up the alcohol, and his face quickly flushed red.
Some people's bodies had slower reactions. When the wine entered the stomach, it would take longer than ordinary people for it to take effect.
In less than thirty meters, his eyes rolled back, and his whole body fell limply to the ground.
At this moment, a hand grabbed him at the right time, preventing him from touching the ground intimately.
Qin Yiqiu's flushed face returned to normal. He hugged Yan Xiaoyi and said with a smile, "Xiaoyi, you're still so slow when it comes to wine."
Lu Xian's drunkenness was gone, and he said, "If not, I really don't know what would have happened. This Yan Li is working for 'her'. "
As he said that, he glanced at the snoring Yan Xiaoyi, and a trace of a smile appeared in his eyes. "This fellow is only quieter when he's drunk."
The two were not pretending to be drunk. It was just a moment of pride, and they did not circulate their Vital Qi to resist it. They did not expect to get drunk so quickly. In that situation, with their special identities, of course, they did not dare to stay for long.
That was why Yan Xiaoyi hurriedly carried the two of them out.
Qin Yiqiu carried Yan Xiaoyi and said with a smile, "Brother Lu, I think you're thinking too much. Today, we came here on the spur of the moment. How could it be so coincidental? The next time we come, we must have a good drink together. Oh right, didn't I look very similar when I pretended to be drunk just now? Ahahaha, I'm indeed a genius! "
After that, he walked forward with a loud laugh.
The corner of Lu Xian's mouth twitched. "Young Master, I see that you're still drunk!"
…
In the backyard of the tavern, Yan Li shook the empty jar with an indifferent expression. No one knew what he was thinking.
His face did not even turn red. Of course, he had been circulating his Inner Qi to force himself to drink.
Yan Chaoyang appeared beside him out of nowhere. He said plainly, "Worried?"
Yan Li shook his head and said, "It's a pity that I did not get any information from him. There aren't many opportunities to get the Ghost Genius Lu Xian drunk. However, although many things can change in five years, I believe that he will not change. "
Yan Chaoyang nodded and did not say anything else.
Yan Li suddenly chuckled. He looked at him and said, "You're worried that I'm worried?"
Yan Chaoyang said frankly, "We're both younger brothers."
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the backyard. Yan Chaoyang went to open the door. Outside the door, Yuan Chengxi looked around to make sure no one was paying attention. Then, he dashed in. He suppressed his excitement and bowed to Yan Chaoyang. Then, he went to Yan Li and kneeled on one knee. He said respectfully, "Subordinate Yuan Chengxi greets Young Lord."
Yuan Chengxi was the owner of the beef noodle stall.
Yan Li nodded slightly and said, "You handled it well last time. However, you've been exposed, right?"
Yuan Chengxi's passionate heart turned cold. He said, "Yes, the Dark Eagles of the Judicial Department have noticed me. They have been loitering around the noodle stall for the past few days. However, before I came here, I destroyed the stronghold. The affairs of Yong Ling have been handed over smoothly. "
Yan Li said, "Hmm, you did a good job on this matter. You've been spared the death penalty. Since your identity has been exposed, I will arrange for you to go out of the city. You can go to the Lonely Moon Restaurant. Stand up and talk. "
"Thank you, Young Lord!" Yuan Chengxi secretly sighed in relief and stood up.
Yan Li said, "The intelligence network of Yong Ling is the result of the efforts of the Wild Fox Battalion. Although the scale is not satisfactory, at least there is a framework. Does the new commander have any instructions? "
Yuan Chengxi said in disbelief, "After Madam Xiang took office, she proposed to complete the undercover mission. She gave us the opportunity to get married and start a career. Then, she trained successors from the new recruits. Not only will the new recruits be loyal, but it will also solve the problem that the Wild Fox Battalion has been unable to solve. She killed two birds with one stone."
Yan Li smiled faintly and said, "She is someone I personally picked. The Wild Fox Battalion has been watching her for three years. She has not let me down. By the way, how is the matter I asked you to do? "
Yuan Chengxi said, "Those two people have some background, especially Wang Yuanqing. He is from the Martial God Mansion and is the second son of the Martial God Wang Ba. His elder brother, Wang Yuanlang, was one of the top three in the previous Academy. He is the current Tiger Guard Colonel. He leads tens of thousands of troops and guards the palace day and night. He is the confidant of the Holy Emperor. But it is said that Wang Yuanlang loves the Holy Emperor. With his identity, he is qualified to be the husband of the Holy Emperor. He has the support of many people. "
"Zhang Zhixiong is the confidant of Yu Xingzhi and the son of the Magistrate of the Capital Zhang Chonghuan. Although Zhang Chonghuan is only the Magistrate, his wife is the sister of the Martial God Wang Ba. So Zhang Zhixiong is the nephew of the Martial God Wang Ba. His identity is not to be underestimated. "
Yan Li sneered and said, "So that Young General Wang is Wang Yuanlang. Although it was only a matter of time, I didn't expect to face the Martial God Mansion so soon. "
Yuan Chengxi said, "I am ashamed. This is information that everyone knows. The more secretive ones can't be found out."
Yan Li waved his hand and said, "This efficiency is enough. If the Wild Fox Battalion can find out everything, then why do I have to come here personally. "
Yuan Chengxi took out a stack of papers and said, "Also, only a small part of the information about the top ten in the Academy this year has been found out. Other than Luo Gensheng and Ma Guanshan who are more transparent, the other people all have extraordinary backgrounds."
Yan Li took the papers and flipped through them page by page. He nodded as he flipped. "Lian Hai, it is indeed Lian Hai from the world's number one village. Even the Changping Xiao Clan has sent their disciples here? This is the first case, so it is worth paying attention to … Other than Zhao Azi who is a little interesting, there is nothing else … "
"Young Master, there is something I don't know if I should say." Yuan Chengxi looked hesitant.
Yan Li did not raise his head and said, "Say it."
Yuan Chengxi frowned and said, "Zhang Zhixiong's cultivation is at the peak of the fourth rank. Someone once saw him kill a Desolate leader who was equivalent to a third rank martial artist in Yuan Zhou. His precious weapon is a forged knife. Although it is only a low-grade precious weapon refined by a weapon nurturer, it is still a precious weapon … Moreover, it is said that his cultivation method is the 'Waning Moon Saber Technique' that Martial God Wang Ba found for him. I am afraid it is not wise for Young Master to duel with him. "
Yan Li lit a fire and burned the papers in his hand. He said, "That is to say, Zhang Zhixiong is not just a theory, he has been on the battlefield. That is a little troublesome."
Yuan Chengxi could not help but roll his eyes and said, "Young Master, that is not a little troublesome. With your cultivation, it is really …"
Yan Li smiled and stood up. Just as he was about to speak, a small thing fell from his body.
It was a small roll of paper that was usually used on carrier pigeons.
Yan Li picked it up and took out the paper inside. He opened it and was stunned.
