Chapter 1027: Old Drunkard
After dealing with Guo Po, Xiang Shaoyun had him rest by himself and called Tuoba Wanâer and Gong Qinyin over. There were things he had to make clear to prevent any unnecessary issues in the future. Tuoba Wanâer and Gong Qinyin arrived holding hands, looking like the closest of friends. The sight astonished Xiang Shaoyun.
Looks like my plan worked, thought Xiang Shaoyun smugly.
âHoly son-in-law, why did you call us over?â Tuoba Wanâer asked.
Xiang Shaoyun smiled and said, âNothing important. I only wanted to introduce the two of you to each other, but it looks like that is no longer needed.â
âShaoyun, wasnât that what you wanted when you deliberately got yourself drunk last night?â said Gong Qinyin, as though she had seen right through his mind.
Xiang Shaoyun rubbed his nose and said, âHaha, did I? I got drunk because I was too happy!â
âHmph. Donât even try to get away with it by feigning ignorance. Were you not afraid that we might have argued?â asked Tuoba Wanâer as she pinched Xiang Shaoyunâs waist.
He gave her a hug and said, âI believe that you are the kindest and wouldnât ever bully others with your status, Wanâer.â
âYou and your sweet talks. I wonder how much we will suffer in the future,â grumbled Tuoba Wanâer.
âSuffer? I wouldnât bear to let you suffer!â said Xiang Shaoyun.
âBig Sister Wanâer told me she is afraid that you will find even more sisters for us, and you will eventually dump us,â said Gong Qinyin.
Xiang Shaoyun hurriedly said, âNo, thatâs not possible. I am definitely not that kind of man. Donât worry. I am loyal, and my heart is unwavering. I definitely wonât get too many women.â
âWonât get too manyâŠso that means youâre still going to find more?â questioned Gong Qinyin as she advanced one step at a time.
Xiang Shaoyun rubbed the back of his head and answered honestly, âProbably one or two more. I donât really have any other options.â
He was speaking the truth. He would never abandon people like Yu Caidie and Lady Shura. There was also Lu Xiaoqing. If he met her again, he wouldnât let her leave him again. However, he had no idea where she was right now. Apart from them, he wouldnât think of any other woman for now. He would try his best to restrain himself.
âYou greedy man!â said Tuoba Wanâer as she pinched Xiang Shaoyunâs waist again.
Gong Qinyin walked over and pinched his waist as well. She said, âI donât care. In the future, any woman wanting to be with you needs to obtain our approval.â
âFine,â Xiang Shaoyun agreed reluctantly.
The two were pleased to hear that. The three spent some time talking before Xia Yingying came over to invite them to a meal.
She had an unnatural look in her eyes when she saw Tuoba Wanâer and Gong Qinyin. Inwardly, she felt indignant on behalf of her young lady. However, she was unsure if she was actually feeling jealous.
Not three days later, Duo Ji arrived at Xia Hamlet. However, Ye Chaomu was still nowhere to be seen. When Duo Ji wanted to enter the Xia Hamlet, he noticed many powerful auras lock on to him, causing him to hesitate whether he should move.
He did not know if these people were friendly or hostile, so he revealed his identity by releasing his aura as well. His aura caught Xiang Shaoyunâs attention. Xiang Shaoyun and Xia Liuhui flew out the moment they sensed Duo Jiâs aura.
âOld drunkard (Master)!â the two shouted in excitement.
Duo Ji was much less sloppy than before, and he looked much better. In fact, he looked younger. Clearly, he had also grown considerably in strength. It was a pity that his severed arm remained the same.
Duo Ji gave Xiang Shaoyun a deep bow and called out, âYoung master!â
Xiang Shaoyun held him up and said, âNo need for that, old drunkard.â
âYoung master, your strength has grown rapidly,â said Duo Ji as he raised his head, revealing his joyful expression.
At this time, Xia Liuhui said, âMaster, take a look at me! I have grown rapidly as well! Iâm already at the seventh-stage Dragon Ascension Realm!â
Duo Ji shot Xia Liuhui a glance, and a pleased look appeared on his face. âNot bad. Looks like your luck is really pretty decent.â
âWhat do you mean by that, master? I am where I am because of my talent and character!â protested Xia Liuhui.
âYou think I donât know you? Even at the exact same cultivation level, the young master will still be able to defeat 10 of you at once,â said Duo Ji bluntly.
âMaster, why are you being so blunt? No matter what, Iâm still your disciple,â said Xia Liuhui gloomily.
âI wouldnât even be bothered to say anything if you werenât my disciple,â said Duo Ji as he rolled his eyes. He then looked at Xiang Shaoyun and asked, âYoung master, are the people here all your men?â
âThatâs right. Since we need to retake the sect and kill Di Batian, we require an army,â said Xiang Shaoyun with a nod.
A look of admiration surfaced on Duo Jiâs face, and Duo Ji said, âYoung master, youâre indeed as capable as your father. These people are strong. It is really impressive that all of them are following you, young master.â
In truth, Duo Ji was here with the intention to make Xiang Shaoyun delay his plan for revenge. But Xiang Shaoyun had actually prepared so thoroughly, and there was nothing he could say.
âI have been waiting to return for a very long time. This time, I will not allow failure,â said Xiang Shaoyun confidently.
Duo Ji said shamefully, âBut Di Batian is a Heaven Battling Realm expert. I have been trying to reach that realm all these years, but I am still stuck. Without the help of a Heaven Battling Realm expert, I donât think we will stand any chance.â
It might not be proper to say such discouraging words before the war, but he had no choice but to say it. He only did so out of consideration for Xiang Shaoyunâs safety.
âDonât worry, old drunkard. We have the help of such experts. Di Batian wonât be a problem,â said Xiang Shaoyun with a smile.
âFor real?â Duo Ji was astonished.
âOf course. I have not wasted all these years doing nothing,â said Xiang Shaoyun.
âIn that case, I, Duo Ji, will use my life to help you retake the Ziling Sect,â said Duo Ji solemnly as he slapped his chest.
âHaha, I have confidence in you,â said Xiang Shaoyun with a hearty laugh. He took out a lifebone flower and handed it to old drunkard. âOld drunkard, regrow your severed arm. I believe that will greatly increase your strength.â
Duo Jiâs pupils constricted when he saw the lifebone flower. He had been looking for ways to regrow his arm over the years, but he had not been able to find any. Surprisingly, Xiang Shaoyun had actually found one for him.
âThank you, young master!â he was filled with gratitude.
The lifebone flower could not only regrow his arm, but it could also reforge his bones. Additionally, it would also be of great help when he was attempting to enter the Heaven Battling Realm.
