Chapter 1558: Chapter 955: Liu RuYan VS Emperor Huanfen _2

I have no idea where these monkeys got so many fine ingredients to make wine. Brother Jiang of the Dao is indeed generous with spending.

If she didn’t taste it wrong, it seemed to have the remnants of the Longevity Immortal Medication.

Such treasure plants, though useless to them, still hold some effectiveness for the Immortal Kings and are very precious.

The woman just woke up, hadn’t roamed the village yet, nor used her Divine Sense to investigate here, so she didn’t know the mysteries of Liu Village.

When Jiang Hui returned, Emperor Huanfen had already drunk all the remaining jars of Monkey Wine, leaving not a single drop.

This was somewhat beyond Jiang Hui’s expectations; he didn’t think that a dignified Sacrificial Path State existence would like Monkey Wine so much, without even dispersing the drunkenness.

However, it’s understandable; when he drinks, he also doesn’t dissipate the intoxication, otherwise, it would just be like drinking water.

Emperor Huanfen noticed Jiang Hui, did not ask why Jiang Hui suddenly left, but instead patted the now empty wine jar: "Fellow Daoist, this wine is good, do you have more?"

Jiang Hui also smiled and said: "Naturally, there is more."

As his voice fell, Jiang Hui reached into the void, not being stingy, directly taking out ten new pots of Monkey Wine.

"Bang bang bang!"

Emperor Huanfen immediately opened all ten wine jars. For a moment, the crisp sound was continuous, and then she boldly lifted a jar and poured it directly into her mouth, drinking it all in one gulp.

Soon, the ten jars of Monkey Wine were completely gone by the woman’s drinking.

"Fellow Daoist’s drinking capacity is extraordinary," Jiang Hui said.

Not dissipating the intoxication is just like being an ordinary person; combined with what was drunk before... at the very least, Emperor Huanfen’s capacity is better than his.

Without inducing the intoxication, he could only drink seven jars at most.

"Fellow Daoist praises too much, please don’t mind, I just got a bit happy at the sight. As they say, drink to dispel sorrow. After drinking your wine, my mood indeed improved a lot, couldn’t help but drink more, oh right..."

Emperor Huanfen wiped the corner of her mouth, smiling faintly, while seeming somewhat hesitant to speak.

Jiang Hui naturally heard it, and immediately said boldly: "Fellow Daoist, feel free to say anything. As long as it’s within my capability, I will not refuse."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Huanfen directly said: "Fellow Daoist, do you have any available space here? If possible, I would like to borrow a spot to stay for a few days."

"I was wondering what it was, turns out it’s such a small matter. There are plenty of empty places, Fellow Daoist, you can stay as long as you want." Jiang Hui immediately replied.

He was pondering how to keep Emperor Huanfen here.

Though he had kind of saved her life.

But with such a person, they always come and go freely like the wind; it’s impossible to think that saving her would sway her thoughts.

This is not realistic.

It’s not that Emperor Huanfen doesn’t know gratitude and repayment.

It’s just that with such unparalleled people, one or two may appear in endless ages, how could external factors influence and interfere with them.

Just when he was fretting over a reason, Emperor Huanfen suggested it herself, a pleasant surprise indeed.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist," Emperor Huanfen voiced her thanks crisply.

The reason for wanting to stay here wasn’t a whimsical thought.

Though she had been "suppressed" in the Accursed Land, with her presence, that eerie source would definitely increase its clandestine probing of the heavens.

If she carelessly leaks a bit of aura, it would certainly draw unimaginable calamity.

Not only for herself but also for what’s above the heavens.

And since Brother Jiang of the Dao was able to rescue her right from under the eyes of that eerie source, he should have means to shield that eerie source’s prying.

Though it sounds unbelievable, Emperor Huanfen knows that even she, who has surpassed the end of the road and reached the unprecedented Sacrificial Path State, still cannot be truly carefree, as there remain limitations and shackles in the heavens and earth, and only target this realm.

...

Jiang Hui called for Old man Lin to handle the follow-up arrangements.

He couldn’t appear too enthusiastic; such a manner would be too obvious, he knows the principle of moderation.

He needed to think about how to completely make Emperor Huanfen an ally... If she could become a believer, it would be even better.

Of course, even just thinking about this, Jiang Hui felt the pressure; how could a Sacrificial Path State become his believer?!

This requires a gradual approach.

However, it shouldn’t be too slow either; first consider how to make the relationship between the two sides unbreakable.

Yet, Old man Lin suddenly spoke.

He was originally patrolling the village, but was pulled away by Liu RuYan, who was obsessed with a chess piece, to play a game.

In the entire village, there were actually only a few who could play chess. Among them, Old man Lin was on par with Liu RuYan, as neither were very skilled. It was only by playing that they felt the fun of chess.

After playing three or four rounds, Liu RuYan finally won by a small margin.

Old man Lin’s hair was white, and he looked spirited, but he was drenched in sweat.

Liu RuYan contentedly put the chess pieces back into the box.

She was planning to play another round to solidify her victory for the day, but Old man Lin suddenly stood up.

Liu RuYan asked in confusion, "Village Chief Lin, what’s wrong?"

Old man Lin quickly explained, "The adult conveyed an instruction, asking me to arrange a guest room in the village. A guest has arrived, and from the adult’s words, it sounds like they’re quite important, telling me not to neglect them."

"A guest is here in the village, then you should hurry, the adult’s instruction is important."

Liu RuYan immediately replied, but she was also a bit puzzled. People often visited the village, but it was rare for the adult to personally deliver a directive and emphasize not to neglect someone.

Although Village Chief Lin’s strength was not impressive, he was shrewd and resourceful. Since the village’s inception, he had always been the chief, and his way of handling matters was beyond reproach, something she couldn’t match.

Yet the adult emphasized the point, which could only mean that the new guest’s identity was indeed special.

As she pondered this, Liu RuYan grew more curious. Just as Old man Lin was about to leave, she called out to him and gestured to go together.

Old man Lin didn’t mind at all.

The adult told him to arrange, but wouldn’t mind how many people were involved, and besides, she was the mistress.

The two of them, one in front of the other, arrived at a certain mountain.

The mountain wasn’t steep nor high, more like a hill.

When they arrived, Emperor Huanfen was already waiting at the foot of the hill.

She was tall, wearing a white long dress that accentuated her perfectly slender waist, and she was barefoot, revealing a pair of fair, jade-like legs and feet like crafted art.

Her neck was graceful and smooth, with light mottled sunlight casting down, making her appear divinely pure.

At the sight of Emperor Huanfen, an unaccountable hostility rose in Liu RuYan’s heart.

This woman was just as flawless as she was!

Not at all in the same league as ordinary women.

Could she be the adult’s new interest?

But what about Sister Liu Shen?!

Does this mean her plan for her and her sister to monopolize the adult would fail?

Liu RuYan’s beautiful, captivating eyes stared intently at Emperor Huanfen.

Her gaze carried both scrutiny and a slight, barely noticeable hostility, as if trying to see through Emperor Huanfen from head to toe.

Old man Lin, walking ahead, seemed oblivious, went straight up to Emperor Huanfen, showing his trademark amiable smile, and introduced himself:

"Ah, this must be the esteemed guest, forgive us for not welcoming you from afar. I am the village chief here; you can call me Village Chief Lin."

Emperor Huanfen was about to speak but felt something, sensing the prickling hostility in Liu RuYan’s gaze, and slightly raised her head.

For a moment, it seemed as if time stood still, the air filled with a subtle and tense atmosphere.

Liu RuYan, like a thief, immediately lowered her head, her eyes shifting constantly, muttering in her heart: Hmph, so beautiful, dressed like some ethereal being, definitely not someone nice!

But then she thought, wasn’t her reaction a bit petty?

So she secretly looked up again, peeking at Emperor Huanfen from the corner of her eye, more like a thief.

Emperor Huanfen slightly frowned, a bit surprised at why this equally beautiful woman was showing such hostility towards her right away?

She had never had any conflict with her before.

Just as she pondered, Old man Lin’s hearty voice sounded again, interrupting Emperor Huanfen’s thoughts: "The honored guest has come a long way, you must be tired. Why don’t you come with me to the residence, and if there’s anything unsatisfactory, feel free to say so, and I’ll do my best to accommodate."

Emperor Huanfen collected her thoughts, her voice clear: "Thank you, Village Chief Lin, for the arrangements. It’s just a lodging; there’s no need for any trouble."

Liu RuYan, listening from the side, immediately stepped forward and said, "Village Chief Lin, let me come along too, I can help organize things."
