Then Li Muxuan asked again.

"No."

Hearing Li Muxuan's series of questions, Jingming rolled her eyes and then stood up from her chair.

"Let's go, it's getting late, we need to go to the restaurant to wait for Master Huang and the others to arrive."

I tentatively used the [Guidance] technique to draw some of those drifting, luminous lights into my body.

Then they simply discarded these things.

Compared to the rhythm of the universe, these crystalline points of light are too chaotic and their obsessions too deep.

It's not suitable for internal use, but it can be used to refine magical artifacts and as a means of attack.

"Hey, wait for me."

Watching Jingming walk away, Li Muxuan didn't have time to reflect on Nezha's deeds. He quickly jumped off the chair and chased after Jingming.

"Liu Qing, get ready, you're coming with me to the banquet."

Backstage, Master Huang addressed Xia Liuqing as she walked in.

"Okay Master."

Hearing her master's words, Xia Liuqing smiled and then quickly ran to wash the paint off her face.

Soon, a sharp-looking, bald young man appeared in front of Master Huang.

"Liu Qing, you should try to experience what it's like to be Nezha after his transformation."

Looking at his disciple, who was showing off his talent, Master Huang thought of the gentle young man he had just met and couldn't help but give him a word of advice.

"Yes, Master, I will try my best."

Hearing what Master Huang said, Xia Liuqing nodded slightly, then closed her eyes and tried hard to recall and ponder the spirit of Nezha in the last part of the opera.

"Master, I can't do it."

After a long while, Xia Liuqing opened her eyes and said to her master in a dejected tone.

"Just think about how it felt when you were slapped to the ground before."

Upon hearing this, Master Huang raised his slightly white-tinged gray eyebrows and spoke.

"Oh, Master."

Hearing her master mention her shameful deeds, Xia Liuqing puffed out her cheeks, but still obeyed her master's words.

"Then think about how you felt when you came to terms with it."

Seeing Xia Liuqing close her eyes, Master Huang spoke again.

But I haven't come to terms with it!

Hearing her master's words, Xia Liuqing gritted her teeth and silently clenched her teeth in her heart.

Then, his breathing became erratic.

"Alas, it just won't work in the end."

Looking at the disordered energy emanating from his apprentice, Huang Banzu shook his head and sighed.

"It's okay, you're still young. With time and practice, you'll definitely succeed in the future."

"Let's go, let's go to the banquet first."

With that, Master Huang took the lead and walked out of the backstage area.

"Humph!"

Hearing what Master Huang said, Xia Liuqing could only clench her fists in displeasure.

There's nothing we can do; we can't beat them, so we have to accept it!

P.S.: Hey everyone, please read this and give me some votes!

Chapter 18 Nuo God Divination

"Father, what brings you here too?"

When Jingming arrived at the restaurant with Li Muxuan, he saw his father sitting in a private room.

"What? You can accompany Gou Dan around everywhere, but I can't be invited by Brother Li to come and keep you company?"

Seeing Jingming's surprised expression, Zhao's father couldn't help but smile.

"Of course you can, but these kinds of things are up to you adults to decide."

Hearing Zhao's father's words, Jingming nodded and then quietly sat down next to him.

Seeing Jingming's behavior, Li Muxuan, who had been skipping and jumping behind him, followed suit and sat down next to his father.

"Have you notified everyone?"

Li's father glanced at Li Muxuan, who was putting on an act beside him, and then asked.

"It's all agreed, and Master Huang also thanked my father for the hospitality."

Li Muxuan grinned.

Jingming glanced at Li Muxuan, but the troupe leader Huang hadn't said those words.

"It should be about time."

"Come, follow me out to greet them."

Mr. Li nodded, took out a pocket watch from his pocket, glanced at it, greeted Mr. Zhao, and then walked outside.

Li Muxuan and Jingming, who were on either side, naturally followed.

Soon, the voices of Master Huang and Xia Liuqing came into view.

"Brother Huang, this way please."

Two adults and two children walked out of the restaurant to greet Master Huang and Xia Liuqing.

"Brother Li, you're too kind."

"Who is this?"

Master Huang returned the greeting with a cupped hand, then looked at Zhao's father standing to the side.

"This is Brother Zhao Xinwang, Dezhu's father."

Mr. Li introduced Zhao Xinwang's identity.

"I see."

"Nice to meet you."

After listening to Li's father's introduction, and glancing at Jingming standing to the side, Master Huang nodded slightly and bowed in greeting.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Zhao."

Xia Liuqing, who was standing to the side, then bowed and greeted them.

"Come on, the food and drinks are all ready, let's go inside."

Li smiled and nodded in response, then led the group into the private room.

As everyone took their seats, the food and drinks were served one after another.

"Come on, this is a specialty dish from Fujian, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."

"This is aged Jiannanchun!"

Mr. Li got up and greeted Master Huang and Xia Liuqing.

As a competent businessman, Xia Liuqing ate the dishes while Master Huang drank the wine, showing consideration for all aspects.

"Master Huang, you've traveled all over the country, so please give me your opinion on the food and drinks at my restaurant!"

After slowly pouring everyone a cup of wine, Li's father spoke with a smile.

"But it is a rare delicacy!"

Master Huang was being very kind, and the food and drinks were indeed quite good.

"Haha, then drink up!"

"We won't leave until we're drunk tonight!"

Zhao's father, who was standing to the side, also smiled and raised his glass.

Jingming simply smiled at this and then lowered his head to eat.

After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, the three drinkers were flushed with alcohol.

"Brother Li, I think this kid of yours has great talent. I wonder if you could be so reluctant as to part with him?"

"I guarantee that within five years, I'll give you a bright and healthy son!"

The drunken troupe leader, Huang, rested his arm on the table and spoke to Li's father.
