Chapter 1984: Chapter 1984: Cherry Blossoms Dance.
When they reappeared, the two of them had already arrived at an obscure tavern.
The clamor of conversations and the continual calling of the shopâs errand boys were unceasing in their ears.
Wang Mang felt a trace of the worldly atmosphere after a long absence.
Gazing casually at a spot, Wang Mangâs thoughts had already wandered far beyond.
He knew not when his pace had quickened, perhaps faltering, perhaps joyful.
Without realizing it, his strength had also undergone significant changes.
But it seemed he had been too impatient on his journey.
Despite having heaven-defying abilities, he couldnât fully unleash their true power.
Now, it seemed that he needed to settle down for a while.
To integrate all his skills thoroughly.
While Wang Mang was deep in thought, the errand boy had already brought over the wine.
Looking at Wang Mangâs distant gaze, Wu Ya placed a jar of wine in front of him.
"What are you daydreaming about?"
In the moment he heard the words, Wang Mang also slowly came back to his senses.
Looking at the wine jar before him, Wang Mang momentarily put aside the thoughts in his mind.
He picked up the jar and gulped down the wine.
Wu Ya, following Wang Mangâs example, picked up a jar as well and drank heartily.
...
"Have you heard? The Nebula Sectâs hundredth sect master election is about to begin."
"Heh heh, why? Youâre actually considering it?"
"What are you talking about? It wouldnât be bad to join in the excitement."
"That position is like a curse, hardly anyone would want it."
"Although thatâs true, thatâs where the fun is."
"Haha, right, after all only during the sect masterâs election can we see those Peerless Heavenly Talents perform crazily."
...
Inside the tavern, the majority of conversations revolved around this matter.
The Nebula Sect and the sect master, these two terms continuously entered the ears of Wang Mang and his companion.
Hearing the surrounding conversations piqued Wang Mangâs interest.
Performance, what kind of performance?
Wang Mang silently pondered.
From the expressions of these people, it wasnât hard to see that the âperformanceâ they mentioned wasnât used to describe something impressive.
For a while, he turned to Wu Ya beside him and said:
"Letâs go, join in the excitement when the time comes."
Wu Ya, upon hearing Wang Mangâs words, swallowed the spirit wine he was sipping and looked blankly at the latter.
"Excitement? What excitement?"
Wang Mang wordlessly pointed to the adjacent table.
Sensing this, Wu Ya also began to listen attentively to the conversations of the people around them.
After a short while, a knowing look appeared on his face.
"Sounds pretty interesting."
"Letâs go check it out then."
After finishing his words, he again picked up a jar of wine and poured it down his throat.
Watching him drink as if it was water, Wang Mang shook his head; this guy was a complete drinker.
Within half an hour, the vicinity of the two men was piled with a small mountain of wine jars.
For a moment, the already small tavern seemed even more crowded.
Other customers were also murmuring complaints, looking at Wang Mang and his companion with dissatisfaction.
Finally, seeing the situation worsen, the errand boy struggled to come over to Wang Mangâs table.
Normally, customers would pay based on the number of wine jars on their table after they finished their drinks.
This was why the errand boy had not collected the empty jars until now.
It couldnât be helped; who could foresee that these two could drink so heavily?
A normal person would at most drink a jar, maybe two at most.
Who knew that these two were like bottomless pits, almost emptying the tavernâs stock.
"Gentlemen, you both have quite a capacity for wine."
"May I take the jug of wine away now?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Mang put down the jug in his hand.
"It should have been done earlier, the service here really lacks attention."
"I thought we would have to do it ourselves."
Hearing this, the server quickly forced a smile.
"Yes, yes, the guestâs advice is right."
"Well, I will take these jugs away then, may I inquire how much this round will cost the two gentlemen...?"
Looking at the serverâs eager smile, Wang Mang frowned slightly.
After a moment, he pulled out a million Dao God Crystals.
"This should be enough, right?"
Wang Mang said softly.
Because he had nothing to carry them in, the Dao God Crystals spilled all over the ground.
Seeing so many Dao God Crystals, the serverâs eyes lit up.
"This is too much."
Wang Mang waved his hand:
"The excess is yours, just take these jugs away quickly, and keep the wine coming."
As soon as he finished speaking, the serverâs eyes shone even brighter.
"Right away!"
Then he did not dawdle, and swiftly collected all the wine jugs around.
Wang Mangâs generous demeanor also made the onlookers a little envious.
All of a sudden, a million Dao God Crystals.
It might not be a lot for Wang Mang,
But for those of lesser strength, it was a huge sum.
Dao God Crystals, which could aid oneâs cultivation and also serve as currency, were extremely precious.
They were strictly controlled by the most powerful forces across the Divine Demon World.
Itâs not about gathering them, mere commoners couldnât even approach a Dao God Crystal mine without being executed on the spot.
A million Dao God Crystals was a fortune for these weaklings!
Nonetheless, although envious, they dared not harbor excessive thoughts.
Firstly, anyone who could casually spend a million Dao God Crystals couldnât be just an ordinary person.
Secondly, ordinarily, a jug of spirit wine would be enough for a normal person, but thatâs only compared to the usual customers in this tavern.
Spirit wine contained a significant amount of Spiritual Power, not only boasting an exceptional taste but also could aid in cultivation.
The fact that these two men drank so much without any side effects was a clear indication of their extraordinary strength.
However, even though they had no designs on these two mysterious characters,
That didnât mean they werenât tempted by the easily targetable server.
A million, and all the surplus going to this fellow.
You may have the luck to earn those Dao God Crystals, but do you have the strength to keep them?
...
Wang Mang cast a casual glance around him, then continued to drink the spirit wine.
But the conversations around him had quieted down a lot, and they seemed to bore Wang Mang.
Out of boredom, he and Wu Ya decided to leave.
In an instant, the two appeared on a busy street.
Taking in the bustling scenery, Wang Mang drew a deep breath.
A feeling of immense relaxation welled up inside him.
"Cultivation isnât just about fighting."
Wang Mang chuckled lightly, shedding his aura of fierceness to blend into the mortal world.
Suddenly, a cherry blossom rain began to fall on the street.
For a moment, the passersby stopped in their tracks.
"Itâs cherry blossom viewing time."
Someone shouted, and the people on the street began to find seats nearby.
Adults gathered together to enjoy the sight, their faces filled with smiles as they watched children play and frolic on the street.
In the center of the street, Wang Mang watched the flurry of petals, as if reminded of something, he reached out to catch them.
"Itâs cherry blossom viewing time." Wang Mangâs eyes were clear as he murmured to himself.
