Chapter 164: Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Nine: Roll (2.5 in 1)_3

Tianyan chuckled twice upon hearing this, nearly choked on the food in his mouth. After swallowing, he glared at him:

"Your shamelessness really hasn’t changed at all."

Xu Yuan shrugged:

"Can’t help it, I was born this way."

Tianyan bit off another piece of the fat and lean wild boar meat, and while chewing, shot back:

"With such a sharp tongue, how did you manage to live this long?"

"It’s all thanks to having a powerful father," Xu Yuan said unabashedly.

With a hint of sarcasm, Tianyan said, "That’s true. If not for Xu Yinhe, with the things you’ve done in the Imperial Capital, that would be enough for you to have been beheaded dozens of times."

"Hehe..." Xu Yuan laughed.

After that, a sudden silence fell.

The quiet munching sounds of the two echoed softly in the cave.

After an unknown amount of time,

Tianyan suddenly called out to him softly, "Xu Changtian..."

"Hmm?" Xu Yuan responded nonchalantly.

Tianyan asked as if it was nothing:

"The things in the Illusionary Realm, um... did you really forget them all?"

"Most of them."

Xu Yuan didn’t hide anything: "Only the really memorable ones, I haven’t forgotten."

Suddenly, Tianyan looked up at him, her heartbeat quickened a bit, and she quickly finished the meat skewer in her hand: "The memorable ones?"

"Mhm." Xu Yuan nodded.

"Like what?" Tianyan asked.

Xu Yuan pondered for a moment, looked at Tianyan, and said:

"Light pink."

"?" Confusion appeared in Tianyan’s eyes.

Xu Yuan didn’t say anything but cast a meaningful glance at the girl’s body.

As his gaze landed...

"Swoosh!!"

A bamboo skewer shot through the air!

Xu Yuan’s pupils shrank abruptly as he quickly dodged to the side.

Looking back,

he saw the ordinary-looking bamboo skewer had completely buried itself into the hard wall of the cave, leaving no trace behind.

Xu Yuan’s breath hitched for a moment, and he turned around:

"Tianyan, are you being serious?"

Tianyan brushed off her hands, giving him a disdainful look:

"I was just testing whether you’re really qualified to negotiate with me, not to mention, who asked you to have a mouth that can’t say anything nice?"

"What if you hit me?" Xu Yuan touched his left shoulder.

Cocking her head, Tianyan smiled playfully:

"It would just cripple one of your arms, that’s all. You did the same to me when we first entered the Illusionary Realm. You may have forgotten, but I’ve always remembered~"

"..."

Xu Yuan opened his mouth, then let out a sigh, taking out a small porcelain bottle from the Sumeru Ring.

The porcelain bottle was engraved with blue and white patterns, exquisite in material.

When Tianyan saw Xu Yuan take out the item, she subconsciously furrowed her eyebrows:

"What’s this?"

"Some great stuff I found last time at Nandu Prefecture, consider it an apology."

"Alcohol?"

"Yeah."

Xu Yuan nodded, took a drinking vessel, slightly tilted the porcelain bottle, and as soon as the amber liquor poured out, the cave was immediately filled with its fragrance:

"Just this little bottle of ’Ambrosial Dew’ costs three thousand taels, it’s priceless. Not only does it crystallize Will-spirit, but it also enhances Origin Qi, I rarely have the heart to drink it myself."

"..."

Tianyan slightly recoiled, her golden eyes filled with a hint of wariness:

"Xu Changtian, you... you’re not planning to drug me, are you?"

"..."

Xu Yuan froze in his movements, his smile twitched, and then he said with a wry smile:

"Is that what you think of me?"

Tianyan’s eyes were filled with contempt:

"Don’t doubt it, you’re even worse than that in my mind."

Xu Yuan cleared his throat lightly:

"You can rest assured, drugging you now would bring me no benefits, and whether it’s drugged or not, can’t you tell for yourself?"

"Charm Sakura Blossom, colorless and tasteless." Tianyan.

"..." Xu Yuan.

"Forget it if you don’t want to drink."

Xu Yuan rolled his eyes, poured himself a cup, was about to drink when the porcelain bottle was snatched away by the girl beside him.

Xu Yuan looked surprised.

Tianyan glared at him:

"If you dare drug me, you’re dead."

Xu Yuan smiled softly: "Okay."

He was about to pour Tianyan a cup,

"Thud thud thud."

"..." Xu Yuan.

Three thousand taels, gone.

After the girl had drunk her fill, a rosy flush visibly appeared on her face at an alarming speed.

Ambrosial Dew, intoxicating and fast-acting.

Seeing Tianyan like this, Xu Yuan didn’t say much and drank up the liquor in his vessel:

"Why the rush to drink? It’s not like there isn’t any more."

Having said that,

he took out two bottles identical to the first from the Sumeru Ring, filled his cup to the brim, and looked over at the flushed girl:

"Just to be clear, if you get drunk, don’t say I drugged you."

"..."

Tianyan did not speak but slowly stood up, straddled his lap, and looked down at him with her beautiful eyes.

"..." Xu Yuan.

"..." Tianyan.

"..." Ran Qingmo.

"..." Saint’s Remnant Soul.

Xu Yuan instinctively placed his hands on the girl’s waist:

"What do you want to do...."

No words were spoken,

but her warm touch spread from his lips to his entire body.

When their lips parted,

Xu Yuan wiped his mouth and opened it to speak.

But she silenced him with a slender, tapered finger pressed against his lips.

Tianyan gave him a playful smile, stars seemed to twinkle in her golden eyes:

"When my injuries are fully healed, Xu Changtian, you better pray you don’t cross my path."

Having said that,

she stood up, lifted her delicate hand to Xu Yuan’s chest, and uttered a single word:

"Scram."

"Boom!"
