There was one situation in the game that Happy was very satisfied with.
Since the time in the game was not fixed, the quests in the game never spoke nonsense. Even though they did not go straight to the point, they could give the players a chance to get straight to the point when they talked.
Once the three of them drank, Li Shiming started talking and told Happy that Shi Qingxuan had an extraordinary relationship with Xu Zhiling. Later on, Artisan Shi would definitely come over to meet them.
Xu Zhiling's face turned red.
"Brother Shiming, you're teasing me. Qingxuan and I are just normal friends. Brother Happy, please don't misunderstand."
"Misunderstanding? Could it be that the matter between Kuo Zhong and my younger sister is also a misunderstanding?" Li Shiming calmly mentioned Kuo Zhong's name while he smiled and lowered his head to drink.
Happy did not disappoint Li Shiming. He looked around.
"By the way, Brother Zhiling, I've long heard of Yangzhou's twin dragons, and they are inseparable. Is Brother Kuo Zhong on the ship?"
But a hint of wariness still flashed briefly on Xu Zhiling's face.
"He has something to do and can't leave for the time being." People who were not good at lying had a lot of flaws when they lied.
"Is that so? That's a pity," Happy said.
"If there's a chance in the future, Brother Zhiling, you must introduce me to him."
"Of course!"
Li Shiming could no longer sit still. He did not want Happy to meet Kuo Zhong, so he immediately laughed and butted in. "There will be plenty of chances for you to meet Kuo Zhong. Happy, do you know the heroes here?"
"I don't really know them."
"Let me introduce them to you. The one to the west is Empress Yin and Empress Yin's beloved disciple, Wan Wan. Brother Happy, don't be deceived by her cute appearance. She's a witch, and she's even more difficult to deal with than Empress Yin." Li Shiming might have lowered his voice, but he had clearly underestimated Wan Wan and Empress Yin's strength.
Empress Yin's expression darkened. She lowered her eyebrows, dipped her finger into the wine cup, spun it, and flicked it.
Whoosh!
The old butler who had been standing behind Li Shiming coughed while pretending that he was not bothered by it. The liquid that sliced through the air instantly lost its original might.
But while he managed to fend against Empress Yin, he did not notice that Wan Wan had also attacked. A thin strand of hair shot in front of Li Shiming.
Happy did not know whether the old butler did it on purpose or whether he truly did not notice it.
Happy sighed in resignation in his heart.
Although Xu Zhiling did not want to get involved in this mess, it seemed that he did not notice Wan Wan's attack. Left with no choice, he slightly bent his hand that was hidden under his seat and flicked out an invisible finger wind.
The tiny strands of hair were instantly shattered in the air.
"Empress Yin!
Their actions still attracted quite a number of people's attention. The generals not too far away from them stood up with their hands on their swords. They glared at Empress Yin's table, and they looked as if they would immediately charge forward once Li Shiming gave the order.
"Young Master Li, don't talk behind my back in the future."
Empress Yin did not mind that her attack had failed. She cast a faint glance at the old butler, whose expression was rather unpleasant. Her tone was indifferent, and there was not a hint of anger in it. "This time, I'll give you a warning."
"Uncle Li, are you alright?"
Li Shi Min's face was full of worry. He could tell that the old man had been at a disadvantage in the fight just now.
"Don't worry." A hint of redness flashed across the old butler's face. He slowly shook his head, but the wrinkles between his eyebrows deepened.
They were both at Myth Realm, but Empress Yin was clearly stronger!
"Thank you for helping me just now, my young friend."
"It's my duty."
Happy's answer caused Witch Wan Wan to be displeased from the table in the distance.
"Are you from the Murong Clan interested in Eunuch Yang's Warehouse as well? Or have you already become Li House's lapdog? You first helped Shi Feixuan, and now, you're helping Li Shiming. Are you intentionally going against me and becoming enemies with the holy order? "
"Since ancient times, righteous and evil have never stood side by side. I don't have any intention to help either side, but when I see injustice, I will definitely help. This is something that I will not shirk from as a member of my generation."
His words were neither arrogant nor humble.
"Haha! What a nice way to say you'll help when you see injustice! Brother Happy! You're indeed a man of character. "
Li Shiming's impression of Happy increased by leaps and bounds.
Xu Zhiling also had a smile on his face.
Happy's words did not flatter or favor Li Shiming, and neither did he show any ambition. It was in line with how he did things.
"Zhiling, let me offer you a toast."
"I see, so the person who helped Miss Shi during the day is you, Brother Happy. I, Shiming, will offer you a toast as well." Li Shiming's eyes lit up.
"I'm not here to drink …" Happy naturally could not say these words. Besides, he was in front of Xu Zhiling and Li Shiming, so he did not dare to be inattentive. He picked up his wine cup and drained it in one go.
However, Happy soon felt two cold gazes land on his face.
"Young Master Happy."
An elegant fragrance wafted into their nostrils. Shi Feixuan walked in front of the trio in a dress that was whiter than snow.
At that moment, Happy's table seemed to have become the focus of the entire pleasure boat. Everyone's attention was on them.
All the factions of power paid attention to them!
"I see, it's Miss Shi."
"Young Master, I am incredibly grateful to you for helping us during the day in Yangzhou City. I will offer you tea in place of wine and offer you a toast."
"Miss Shi, you praise me too much. We are chivalrous people, and when we see the evil cult members harming our comrades, we will draw our swords and help them. I was just lucky to be here."
When he said these words, Happy noticed that Xu Zhiling's gaze when he looked at him was a little strange.
"Brother Happy, I will offer you another toast."
Xu Zhiling's bashful expression revealed gratitude and determination.
"You flatter me."
He threw his head back and drained his cup in one go.
After drinking a few cups of strong wine, he felt a little dizzy, but soon, Nine Yang Divine Skill evaporated all the alcohol and expelled it from his body. Happy was still full of energy.
"How are Master Qingyuan's injuries right now? And Brother Xibai's injuries … "
"Master Qingyuan's injuries are too severe, and he has already passed away. Xibai's injuries are rather light. Right now, Young Master Li's people are taking care of him, so he should be fine."
Shi Feixuan's expression turned slightly gloomy.
Happy let out a long sigh.
"If I had taken action earlier, I might have been able to save Master Qingyuan."
"Young Master Happy, you don't have to blame yourself. Before Master Qingyuan died, he asked me to thank him. After all, if he could give me the key, he can die in peace. It's a pity …" Shi Feixuan stopped talking for a moment before she quickly cast a glance at Xu Zhiling. There was guilt in her voice. "It's a pity that I couldn't protect the key in the end."
"Fairy Shi, it's all my fault for being careless." Li Shiming's expression was full of anguish. "I trusted others too easily, and that's why I fell into their trap and lost the key."
When he heard this, Happy frowned slightly, and his heart trembled. 'I didn't expect that I would still lose the key in the end. It didn't land in Li Shiming's hands. Judging by Shi Feixuan's expression, could it be that the key is really in Kuo Zhong's hands?'
While he thought about it, Happy suddenly remembered the unfamiliar player who had been following behind Xu Zhiling. He had never spoken, and he scowled.
'That's not right!
