The Great Sage Had Gone Mad
There was definitely something fishy going on!
He knew Li Hu's personality all too well. How could he not come to a drinking event like this?
Then there were the people from the other student societies in the tavern. Everyone who'd signed up for the Battle of Geniuses was here. If they kept drinking like this, wouldn't they need to participate?
Furthermore, Ye Zichen had the vague feeling that Murong Xue and the others were trying to make him stay.
"Brother Ye, let's drink."
Pang Zheng raised his cup, then drained it in one gulp before Ye Zichen could say anything. He tipped his cup over and gestured for Ye Zichen to drink as well. Murong Xue was also pouring wine for him, pushing him to have a drink as well.
This was too strange.
He naturally drank, but he sent Xue Mo a message from under the table.
….
From the moment Ye Zichen stepped into the tavern, he became the absolute center of attention.
There was an endless stream of people toasting him, and glass after glass was refilled. Ye Zichen calmly placed his hand on the table. Pu Jingwan, who was sitting beside him, tugged at his hand.
Flirting?
Of course not.
He was using this method to get Pu Jingwan to help him dispel his drunkenness.
The people in the tavern weren't just offering him ordinary alcohol. It was called Immortal Intoxication. Even experts at the Celestial Being Realm would feel tipsy after drinking a certain amount of alcohol.
As soon as the alcohol entered his stomach, he used his divine power to dispel it, but there were too many people toasting him. He had no choice but to ask Pu Jingwan for help.
"It feels like you're not that popular. Everyone's trying to get you drunk."
Pu Jingwan's divine sense transmission rang out in his sea of consciousness. Ye Zichen didn't respond. He just continued drinking.
"You can't do this. Their goal is to get you drunk at all costs. You have to give them some face, right? Besides, so many people are toasting you. If you stay sober, they'll get suspicious. "
Ye Zichen's hand stiffened. He glanced at Pu Jingwan, then at the other students in the tavern.
They were all fighting over each other, but their faces were still flushed with drunkenness.
However, Ye Zichen, who'd been toasted in turn, remained clear-headed. This was indeed too suspicious.
She was right.
Ye Zichen let go of Murong Xue, raised his glass, and downed it. Jiang Yong didn't even give him a chance to catch his breath as he wobbled over with a cup of wine in hand.
"Brother Ye, you have a good alcohol tolerance. Let's have another cup."
"You guys can let me go, please. Even a Celestial Being would get drunk. If I keep drinking like this, I'm going to pass out." Ye Zichen smiled and pushed down Jiang Yong's glass. "That's about enough. Let's drink some more later. I really can't hold my liquor, so I'm going back …."
"Don't!"
Without giving Ye Zichen a chance to speak, Jiang Yong put his arm around his shoulders and laughed.
"Let's not go home until we're drunk. Besides, if you go back now, you'll disturb their news, and your female companion won't have a place to stay. Let's drink here. Even if you're really drunk, we can arrange for you to stay here. I'll go back after I sober up. There won't be any delays. "
The other people at the table also chimed in. Ye Zichen frowned slightly.
Buzz …
The phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.
Ye Zichen had been waiting for Xue Mo's message this entire time, but instead of a jade slip, his phone rang.
He took his phone out of his pocket. When Jiang Yong and the others saw that Ye Zichen had business to attend to, they retreated to their seats. However, if he put down his phone, his drink would be delivered to him.
He opened his social media app and saw that Yang Jian's message was at the top.
"Brother, we're requesting backup!!!"
There were three exclamation marks. From this, it was clear just how urgent Yang Jian's message had been.
He'd most likely gone to the Yao Realm with the Great Sage to seek out Fairy Zixia. For him to send such an urgent message now, Ye Zichen's heart trembled.
"What is it?"
As soon as he sent the message, Yang Jian's chat window showed that he was typing something.
"The monkey's gone crazy!"
Yang Jian looked behind him and typed out another message. Once again, he ended with an exclamation mark. Before Ye Zichen could reply, a ten-second video appeared.
Ye Zichen clicked on it.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! A deafening explosion resounded through the air. All the students in the tavern instinctively looked in Ye Zichen's direction.
Pu Jingwan waved a finger, and a barrier appeared between the two of them.
In the video, countless rocks fell from the sky.
The Great Sage stood in the sky, his expression savage. His Ruyi Jingu Bang was hundreds of meters long, and its afterimages swept across the mountain range like a broom. Rocks flew everywhere.
Within a radius of a thousand miles, there were crushed rocks and ancient trees that had been snapped in half.
The entire video was a mess. At the end of the video, Ye Zichen even heard Yang Jian mutter, "He's gone crazy.
He's gone crazy …. "
The video was only ten seconds long, but it was enough to show that the Great Sage's emotions were truly unstable.
Below the video was a message from Yang Jian.
"See? It looks like the monkey's gone berserk. He's been venting for almost an hour now. Hurry up and get over here. Bring Pu Jingwan over too. I can't control him right now. "
"You can't control him?" Ye Zichen was stunned.
After all, Yang Jian could instantly kill even a Demon God. Back in the Heavenly Court, the Great Sage truly was the Victorious Fighting Buddha. Suppressing Yang Jian was no problem at all. But this was the Upper Realm of the Gods, Yao, and Demon Realms. The Great Sage had only just become a diviner. How could Yang Jian not be able to handle him?
"Now's not the time to explain. Hurry up and get over here. If you're any later, you'll have to come collect my corpse. "
"Coordinates!"
A map suddenly appeared on the screen. At the same time, Ye Zichen replied.
"Hold on!"
When Yang Jian saw the message, he gulped, then put his phone back in his pocket. At that moment, he was stealthily hiding in a crack in a boulder, watching the raging monkey in the sky. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered, "What the hell is going on?"
"What the hell is going on?"
Yang Jian's eyes narrowed.
In truth, he didn't know what was going on either. He'd brought the Great Sage to Zixia, but the monkey had gone in on his own. Yang Jian had simply waited outside for news.
An hour later, the monkey emerged.
At the time, he'd behaved normally, but after leaving and coming here, he seemed to have gone mad. His aura skyrocketed, and even Yang Jian found it hard to keep him in check.
"What's going on? Could it be that he broke up with someone, got rejected, or …."
A bad premonition suddenly popped into Yang Jian's mind. But if that was really the case, then the Great Sage's madness made sense.
