Chapter 319 What did you give me to drink?
After the captain of the guard team in charge of this block left, Lu Chen looked at the young cultivator called the Second Young Master and said with a smile:
“Hehe…thanks! But your acting is so fake, I almost couldn’t hold back my laughter.”
"Hahaha...some things have to be done for others to see, right? Besides, am I not doing this to help you?
Oh, right! When did you come to Half Moon City? Why didn’t you come to see me? I just happened to have some great news to tell you.”
The second young master smiled familiarly.
"Humph! How dare you say that? I just went to your Jade Mansion this morning to look for you, but the guard said there was no such person.
You don't know how fierce they were and how embarrassed I was. By the way, do you have any great news to tell me?"
Thinking about the rejection he had received, Lu Chen said unhappily with a resentful tone.
Because the second young master in front of him was none other than Lu Chen’s long-time friend, Young Master Yu Xiao.
"I can't do anything about the guarding. You really screwed me over in the Secret Realm of the Wind Valley last time. I was afraid to go out for a while.
Let's go! I won't say anything more. You have to treat me to a good meal today. We won't leave until we are drunk. I know you have made a fortune."
Upon hearing this, Master Yu Xiao seemed to have something to hide, and took the initiative to change the topic to the incident in which Lu Chen robbed many cultivators in the medicine garden space.
The guard at his own home actually denied the existence of his master. Lu Chen guessed that something might have happened in Master Yu Xiao's home.
But Master Yu Xiao did not mention it, and Lu Chen could not point it out, so he could only follow his meaning and smiled:
"Hehehe... Let's go! Mr. Lu will pay for all the consumption today. Oh, right! You haven't told me yet, what good news surprised you?"
"Don't worry, we can talk over a drink later." Young Master Yu Xiao was keeping the secret at this moment.
Under the guidance of Master Yu Xiao, Lu Chen and his companion came to a relatively large restaurant in the East District of Half Moon City.
In the private room, Master Yu Xiao did not, as he said, want to trick Lu Chen and deliberately order a lot of expensive ingredients.
He just ordered a few side dishes, but he ordered quite a bit of liquor, as if he was not going to leave until he was drunk.
After the food and wine were served, the two began to toast each other. When they had almost finished drinking, Master Yu Xiao seemed to have let go of his grudges.
He started talking as if he had opened a box of conversation and said a lot of things.
Lu Chen spent most of his time as a listener, occasionally chiming in.
Through the conversation, Lu Chen learned that something had really happened in their family recently, and the story started with his grandfather Yu Zhantian.
Master Yu Xiao’s grandfather, Yu Zhantian, had two sons. The eldest was named Yu Beiming and the second was named Yu Nanshan, who was Master Yu Xiao’s father.
Mr. Yu Xiao's grandfather was seriously ill recently and in critical condition. He invited many alchemists to check on him, but to no avail.
This is equivalent to giving the old man a critical illness notice, which is just short of directly asking him to arrange his funeral affairs.
The eldest brother, Yu Beiming, has been strong and overbearing since he was a child. He likes to fight for victory or defeat in everything. When he grew up, he developed a cunning and treacherous character, but his talent for cultivation is extremely high.
The second son, Yu Nanshan, is more gentle by nature. He doesn't like to argue with others and is an honest and upright person.
Therefore, the old man Yu Zhantian has been partial to the second son Yu Nanshan since he was young. When he grew up, he even promised to pass the position of the head of the family, which originally belonged to the eldest son Yu Beiming, to the second son Yu Nanshan.
This is equivalent to passing the position of the City Lord of Half Moon City to the second brother.
This made Yu Beiming feel resentful, and his relationship with his family members became estranged, with both sides appearing to be in harmony.
This time, old man Yu Zhantian was seriously ill and in danger of death. Yu Beiming began to make some moves and did a lot of small things in secret.
Yu Nanshan naturally saw all these things, but he just didn't care. Recently, he has been busy looking for medical treatment and medicine for the old man.
This is also the reason why when Lu Chen went to find Young Master Yu Xiao, the guard directly said that there was no such person.
Because these guards had been told by the eldest son Yu Lintang that the Yu Mansion could only have one room. They were forced to do so because of the power of the eldest master.
Even his own father was unwilling to fight for that position. The Second Branch was weak in the Yu Family, and one could imagine the life it led.
Therefore, Master Yu Xiao was filled with grievances almost every day. If his old man had not been in danger, Master Yu Xiao would have traveled around long ago.
Another so-called great news is that the mission to arrest Lu Chen is no longer on the Tianyuan Pavilion bounty mission ranking list.
In other words, if Lu Chen becomes worthless, no one will spend the whole day trying to find him.
After hearing the news, Lu Chen was naturally overjoyed, but he also had many doubts in his mind. He couldn't understand what the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce was up to.
At this moment, neither of them used their true energy to resist the effects of the alcohol. After drinking more than twenty pots of spirit wine, both of them were drunk.
Fortunately, Master Yu Xiao was a pretty good drinker. Even when he was drunk he wasn't like some other people who would cry and make a fuss, with tears and snot all over their faces, looking very embarrassing.
Looking at Master Yu Xiao who was sleeping soundly on the table, Lu Chen's face showed a solemn expression. He then used the Chaos Dao Sheng Jue to dispel the alcohol in his body, and his eyes instantly became clear.
Controlled by spiritual consciousness, a drop of milky white liquid flew into the wine glass and merged with the spiritual wine in the glass.
Then Lu Chen sent a stream of true energy towards Master Yu Xiao. Master Yu Xiao, who was originally sleeping, suddenly sat up and exclaimed:
"Oh no, it's raining... uh... hehe... sorry, I just had a dream. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Brother Lu. Let's have another drink."
After saying this, Master Yu Xiao picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp without any suspicion.
But when Master Yu Xiao drank the spiritual wine in the cup, his pupils suddenly shrank. He looked at Lu Chen in shock, and then looked at the empty wine glass in his hand.
His originally bleary-eyed eyes suddenly became clear, and he looked at Lu Chen in disbelief and said incoherently:
"You...you you you...what on earth did you give me to drink?"
When Lu Chen heard this, black lines appeared on his forehead, and he cursed in an almost roaring tone:
"Get lost! Don't take my kindness for granted. If you don't refine the medicinal power and miss this opportunity, you can cry!"
"Uh... okay, okay... hahaha..." Upon hearing this, Master Yu Xiao felt the changes in his body and immediately laughed excitedly.
Not daring to delay, he sat cross-legged on the stool and began to practice his own skills.
There was a faint white halo flashing on the surface of Master Yu Xiao's body, and his face showed an expression of ecstasy but trying hard to hold back the emotion.
Seeing this, Lu Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, poured himself a glass of spirit wine, sipped it slowly, and waited for Master Yu Xiao to wake up...
