Chapter 1313: Chapter 16 Departure_3 Chapter 1313: Chapter 16 Departure_3 āNo need then, just an occasional drink is fineā¦
Besides, once Hall Master Guan returns in two days, Iāll have to go to the Huangji Continent, and Iāll probably not be in the mood to savor it, which would waste it.ā
Zhao Feng waved his hand as he spoke with a simple and light-hearted smile, dressed in plain clothes.
The two Cultivator brothers had been apart for many years, and today, Wang Ba had used the opportunity of brewing Chunqiuzui Wine to invite old friends for a reunion.
Besides Zhao Feng, there were also Tao Ruyi, Zhou Lve, Lou Yi, Zhen Boen, Xi Wushang, Ji Yuan, and others present.
However, some figures were missing, such as Li Yingfu, who used to follow Wang Ba in the Diwu Hall.
He had gone to support Tao Ruyi and others in the Chen State with Lv Zhuangmei, the new Hall Master of Tian Yuanā¦
Those present also remembered those who were absent.
...
But it didnāt greatly affect them.
In this world, people come and go in a hurry.
Everyone sitting here had long been accustomed to life and death through their Cultivation and had already calmly accepted the impermanence of life.
They felt a sigh and nostalgia in their hearts, but they did not let this sorrow linger.
A Cultivator should indeed be a bit free-spirited.
āWhen life gives you joy, make the most of it, and donāt face the moon with an empty cup.ā

Mortals do this, so do Cultivators.
āIf Master Zhao doesnāt want it, I certainly do.ā
Xi Wushang laughed heartily as he snatched the jug of spirit wine from Wang Baās hands.
Ji Yuan, though silent, acted even more decisively by grabbing a jar and stuffing it into his Storage Treasure.
Tao Ruyi seemed moved and a bit embarrassed, but Zhou Lve, understanding his partner, quickly approached Elder Bu Chan, whispered something, and soon joyfully stored away a large jar of spirit wine.
Lou Yi and Zhen Boen were shy and didnāt dare ask directly, but they also drank more than a few sips, soon flushing crimson, their heads becoming dizzy.
They tried to dispel the effects with Mana, but couldnāt shake off the drunkenness.
Seeing this, the others couldnāt help but burst into loud laughter:
āThis isnāt just any spirit wine; drink too much, and youāre sure to be drunk!ā
Right then, a snoring sound came from beneath the table.
Looking down, they saw a handsome young man with a face red from alcohol, sound asleep under the table.
At this sight, everyone couldnāt help but laugh.
Even Bu Chan scolded with a smile:
āThe little guy doesnāt know the vastness of heaven and earth!ā
It was Wang Qingyang who saw Wang Yiāan pitifully and sent him to the side room to rest.
āCome on, letās play a game!ā
āThatās boring.
Letās use this round table as the boundary, with two chopsticks as swords, and see who steps out firstā¦ā
Sometimes there was laughter like rain, other times boisterous cheering and shouting.
A moment of pure joy.
But, inevitably, it was too short.
āHall Master Guan has returned, we should also be leaving.ā
Zhao Feng held a Spirit Rhinoceros Stone in his hand and looked back at the chaotic Wanfa Peak, a trace of reluctance in his eyes.
But that sentiment disappeared in a blink, replaced by the calm and determination to face new challenges.
Ji Yuan, Xi Wushang, and Lou Yi also slowly wiped the smiles off their faces and moved to stand behind Zhao Feng.
And it seemed the noise had reached him; from the side room, a still dazed Wang Yiāan staggered out and landed behind Zhao Feng.
Wang Qingyang, who was next to Bu Chan, also smiled as he bowed to Wang Ba and Bu Chan, and followed them.
Watching these familiar figures, Wang Ba was momentarily silent, then he took out several mysterious black Tokens from his sleeve and handed them to Zhao Feng.
āAlong the way, brother, you might bury one of these at intervals.ā
āIf it comes to a crisis, inject your Mana into one of themā¦ā
He suddenly paused, then couldnāt help but look at Zhao Feng, seeing that he was also looking back at him.
The two seemed to have a telepathic connection at that moment, suddenly looking at each other and bursting into laughter.
This scene seemed to overlap with the past.
Only now, Wang Ba had transformed from the receiver to the giver.
āJunior Brother has transformed from a snake into a dragon, with his demeanor fully established!
I am far inferior.ā
Zhao Fengās eyes revealed satisfaction, and he graciously accepted the Mysterious Black Token.
āLetās go!
Letās not keep Hall Master Guan waiting!ā
With that, he shook his plain robe and transformed into a magnificent sword-light, flying toward the Sky Tri-Palace.
Soon after, everyone else also took to flight, following Zhao Feng closely.
Wang Yiāan finally sobered up from his drunken stupor, glanced back at Wang Ba and Bu Chan, deeply bowed, and then also transformed into a sword-light and flew away.
In a blink, the once bustling Wanfa Peak had become desolate and empty.
āSenior Brotherā¦ā
Bu Chan quietly hid in Wang Baās embrace.
Wang Ba gently patted Bu Chan on the back, softly comforting,
āDonāt worry, I promise, they will be safe.ā
ā¦
āYe Cangshengās three Void Refinement Heritages are extraordinary.
If Yang Que successfully obtains the Void Refinement Heritage, with his high realm and ruthless methods, I fear we may never have a chance to rise!ā
In the eastern part of the Qian, at Huangji Continent.
Within a city temporarily assembled by the Dongyuan Five Sects.
In the middle of the city was a grand palace.
The Sect Masters and Elders of the five sects, numbering over a hundred, gathered together, their faces solemn as they discussed.
The speaker was Mei Shan, the Palace Master of the Eight Treasures Palace, one of the five sects.
Dressed in a brocade robe, he exuded a commanding presence.
In front of him lay a scroll displaying a map of Qian, with each city clearly marked.
On the map, the cities in the eastern and northern parts of Qian were almost entirely shaded green.
The south and west were red.
And in between the red and green was a striking golden dot.
Mei Shan pointed to this golden spot and said solemnly,
āTherefore, we must hold onto the Dragon Transformation Pool and not let him seize the Void Refinement Heritage first!ā
His words immediately received a lot of agreement from those around him.
However, some couldnāt help but say,
āMaster Mei is just repeating the old tune.
Who doesnāt know that we canāt let Yang Que obtain the Void Refinement Heritage?
Weāve been fighting against Yang Que for so long and still havenāt been able to completely secure the Dragon Transformation Pool.
Does anyone have another solution?ā
Hearing the skepticism, Mei Shanās expression also turned sour:
āThe Imperial Capital is the most prosperous place in all of Qian and has been managed by the Royal Clan for many years.
We have been suppressed for years, and only now can we breathe a little.
Itās normal to be unable to fight against Yang Que.
Iāve gathered everyone here to discuss and find a solution.ā
Ke Mo, the Mansion Master of Phoenix Kirin Mansion, pondered and said,
āItās not just the Void Refinement Heritage; we should also try our best to keep all the Immortal Ascension Heritages in our hands.
There are limited Immortal Ascension Heritages in the Dragon Transformation Pool, each granted to only one person.
If we take more on our side, Yang Que will have less.
By gaining some here and losing some there, we can eventually defeat him.ā
āThatās true, but will Yang Que give us the time?ā
Some agreed, others doubted.
No one could persuade the other.
At that moment, a figure rushed from outside the hall, approached an elder with purple whiskers, and whispered a few words in his ear.
The elder with purple whiskers, upon hearing this, couldnāt help but show a look of surprise:
āAre you saying, above the Eastern Sea, cultivators from the Outer Continent have landed and intend to head to the Dragon Transformation Pool, and our people have discovered them?ā
