Chapter 154 Wine Daoist

In the capital, Fang Yuan and Gu Tianqing were walking side by side on the streets.

“Sigh, Senior, you were too impulsive this time.”

Gu Tianqing clasped his hands behind his head and walked slowly. “Didn’t you say that we’re here to befriend the Tianxiang Sect? Now, we’re already quarreling.”

“With that Han Qian Luo’s character, it is impossible not to quarrel.”

“What should we do? The Tianxiang Sect is not weak, if they stab us in the back, we will not be able to bear the responsibility.”

“Don’t worry, these are all Tianxiang Sect’s juniors, they cannot make decisions.”

“That may be the case… but I am a little worried… sigh, why would the Tianxiang Sect send such disciples to participate in the Gu Dao convention? If they cannot get along with others, aren’t they afraid of making enemies everywhere?”

“These ten people are the most talented ones in the Tianxiang Sect.”

Fang Yuan’s gaze was deep. “For example, that Han Qian Luo already has Fusion Realm cultivation, but she used a special method to enter the Gu Dao convention.”

“Ah?”

Gu Tianqing was shocked, “Is that true, Senior, why would Tianxiang Sect do this?”

“To train its disciples.” Fang Yuan said calmly, “Haven’t you noticed? These people seem to have never experienced the ways of the world. They do things according to their personalities. Not to mention your sister Yuange, even Junior Ruan is much more sensible than them.”

“That seems to be the case.” Gu Tianqing scratched his head. “She’s far worse than your sister.”

“She’s… she’s just a little girl who hasn’t grown up yet.”

Fang Yuan laughed lightly. “That Han Qian Luo, if I’m not mistaken, had her name changed. Maybe, she is He Caiyi, who is ranked fourth on the Heaven Roll.”

Gu Tianqing’s face was full of disbelief.

Ranked fourth on the Heaven Roll, and he defeated her in one move?

Even if her cultivation was restricted, it could not have turned out that way!

Fang Yuan could not explain to him. The True Sight Gu was such a mystical Gu worm. Although it was only Black Iron quality, as its rank increased, its effects had already benefited Fang Yuan a lot.

If one day he could find a Gu worm that could fuse with it and increase its grade once, it might bring him even more mystical abilities.

“In short, the Tianxiang Sect wants to train this group of ‘proud daughters of heaven’ and let them grow up, and we just happened to be the whetstones. It could be considered a coincidence.”

Fang Yuan smiled. “If we can help these people grow up, maybe the Tianxiang Sect will thank us.”

“Are you sure?” Gu Tianqing raised his eyebrows.

“I’m not.” Fang Yuan grinned. “So I have already sent the Communication Gu back, asking Master to clarify the reason. If that is the case, today’s quarrel was worth it.” “Then what if it is not?”

“Then it is not, I don’t like Han Qian Luo anyway. I will just take it as venting my anger. Can she ignore the Gu Dao convention and unseal her realm to teach me a lesson?”

Gu Tianqing was speechless. So this is what Fang Yuan was thinking about.

After walking for a while, Gu Tianqing suddenly thought of something and asked, “Senior Fang, you said you wanted to try to break through this afternoon, how did it go?”

“I failed.” Fang Yuan sighed lightly. “It is still not realistic to break through continuously, I can only stabilize my realm first.”

“Yes, it’s important to be steady.”

“Tianqing, do you smell the fragrance of wine?” Fang Yuan suddenly felt the Drunken Gu in his acupoints move restlessly.

“No.”

Gu Tianqing took a deep breath. “This street is a little smelly. Perhaps the sewer is blocked. Senior, you must have smelled wrong.”

Fang Yuan still insisted. “No, there must be good wine nearby. Split up and help me look. You go over there!”

Gu Tianqing had no choice but to split up with him, turning into another alley.

Fang Yuan passed through the crowded road. The craving to drink could not be dispelled, but he could not find where the smell of wine came from.

He simply released the Drunken Gu and let it lead the way.

“South of the city?”

Fang Yuan followed the Drunken Gu and turned around. It turned out that he was going in the opposite direction.

The Drunken Gu ran all the way, its four short legs running with all their might.

Fang Yuan followed behind it step by step, and before long, they arrived at a dark alley.

The smell of alcohol came from inside.

He took out a fluorescent Gu, and using the not-so-strong light to look inside, it was empty.

There were no shops, no doors, only a tall wall erected on one side of the house.

“There shouldn’t be any danger in the capital, right?”

Fang Yuan still had lingering fear from the previous two assassination attempts, but the current situation was definitely not some kind of suspicious activity of an assassin.

After all, if there was an assassin, he would have noticed it long ago.

An assassin that he could not detect would not use such a method either.

Fang Yuan took a deep breath and slowly walked in.

The alley was very narrow and could only accommodate three people moving side by side.

Moreover, there were many forks in the road and he had to change direction after walking for a short while, which made Fang Yuan dizzy.

However, the fragrance of the wine was indeed much stronger.

The Drunken Gu slowly crawled, like a search dog with a locator device, without stopping.

After turning countless corners, just as Fang Yuan was considering whether to bring the Drunken Gu along from the roof, a black shadow suddenly flashed in front of him.

Swoosh!

The Drunken Gu disappeared!

Fang Yuan’s eyes widened. Someone dared to steal his Gu worm?

And it was done right in front of him?

Fuck!

Fang Yuan cursed and instantly used phantom steps to step on the wall, borrowing the force to jump onto the roof.

That person ran south.

Fang Yuan followed closely behind, his body moving like a ghost as he jumped on the roofs of various buildings.

His speed was extremely fast, and there were even afterimages behind him.

But even so, he did not seem to be catching up to that person, and was even left further and further behind.

Fang Yuan gritted his teeth. He infused liquid spirit essence into his body, and his speed was five times faster!

Even if his meridians could not bear the risk, he still wanted to catch this shameless thief!

A few breaths later, that person jumped into a courtyard, landing in a pavilion in the backyard.

Fang Yuan’s figure landed immediately, his gaze fixed on the other party, ready to attack at any moment. He shouted, “Who are you, sir, why did you steal my Gu worm?”

This was an old man. His hair was disheveled, his clothes were shabby, his face was full of dust, and he looked slovenly.

Facing Fang Yuan’s interrogation, he calmly took out a cup, squeezed the butt of the Drunken Gu and filled the cup with wine.

For a moment, the fragrance of wine permeated the air.

The old man was very satisfied. After tasting a mouthful, he shook his head and said, “Good wine! Good wine naturally goes with the scenery, little friend. Don’t panic, come sit down and drink with this old man, how about it?”

“Who are you?”

“Haha, you are quite serious. This old man here is the Wine Daoist, have you heard of

me?”
