"Sharing a toast..."

"I have a girl I must take responsibility for."

The tavern owner was momentarily dazed. She looked at Shi Yan silently, then smiled gently, raised her glass in a gesture of greeting, tilted her head back, and drank the wine in one gulp.

Her slender, jade-like neck makes one want to place a light kiss on it.

"Around noon today... a caravan from a prominent family will be coming to the market to purchase supplies," she said casually.

"Thank you..." Shi Yan returned the cup to her.

In front of Shi Yan, the woman pulled open the collar of her cheongsam and threw the cup into it.

'Won't it get wet from the wine...' Shi Yan looked at the tavern owner's seductive movements and felt his breathing quicken.

It's not an illusion.

Was it... the wine from earlier?

"Aren't you curious, Sister Shiyan?" The tavern proprietress looked at Shiyan and gently tugged at her collar. "Why would I say..."

“Except for…the style of this herb.”

Shi Yan reached out and, under the intrigued yet surprised gaze of the tavern owner, helped her fasten her collar. "I prefer to see it with my own eyes rather than have my sister tell me."

The tavern proprietress suddenly gave her a seductive look, "Then... Sister Shiyan probably won't have that chance."

Shi Yan was stunned for a moment.

Then it dawned on me that the woman wasn't saying she had no chance to see it.

Instead...

Shi Yan looked at the tavern proprietress in front of him; the lines of her beautiful body beneath her cheongsam were clearly alluring.

She's so good at it.

Part 142 "Naturally Alluring" A Great Victory [First Update]

Holding onto the wall, Shi Yan staggered out of the tavern's back door.

The girl's face was flushed with an alluring blush.

She subconsciously touched her cheek.

My cheeks... feel so hot.

Even my breathing seemed to have become a little strange.

The sound of panting grew louder in my ears, and a dull, choked feeling came from my throat.

Even the breath seemed to carry a hint of the sweet taste of fresh grapes being crushed on fingertips.

Of course... it's not because anything happened.

Faced with a woman who could devour him at any moment, Shi Yan wasn't that hungry.

"That... wine...?" Shi Yan thought carefully, his body swaying, and he staggered towards the market area inside Shuangyong City.

"Nine Provinces..."

"Nine Provinces..." She gently touched her chest with her right hand.

This time, Shi Yan only brought Shi Jiuzhou with him to Frost Rainbow Valley.

Shi Jiuzhou curled up like a jade sword and was worn by Shi Yan, lying quietly on Shi Yan's chest.

But... there was no response.

Shi Yan felt as if his consciousness was being rapidly pulled out of his body.

The brain's reaction speed is decreasing at a clearly perceptible rate.

Shi Yan even imagined... that the tavern owner had foreseen his current situation.

But... she probably didn't expect to leave so decisively.

or--

Actually, she was right behind him.

Waiting for himself to lose his mind.

I lightly bit the tip of my tongue; the teacher's words stimulated my nerves.

With her right index and middle fingers together, she swiped open her character attribute panel, wanting to see if there were any strange debuffs on her panel, such as "Love Tribulation" or "A Pool of Spring Water".

I have some miasma-dispelling pills on hand; they might come in handy in this situation.

But...no.

Below the task panel, there are only small, cherry blossom pink icons that are 'drunk'.

"So...it's just that I have a very low alcohol tolerance?"

"wrong..."

"I am, after all, at the ninth level of the Purple Mansion Realm, which is equivalent to the early stage of the Golden Core Realm of an ordinary cultivator."

"How could someone be so easily made drunk?"

"unless--"

"That wine was anything but ordinary."

Only in this way can we explain why the proprietress seemed completely unaffected after drinking.

But I... felt dizzy and lightheaded, as if I was about to lose consciousness.

But if that's the case, then it's even worse.

That means the tavern owner probably never expected that she would pass out after just one drink, and that she would be allowed to leave the tavern.

Shi Yan seemed to have already imagined what would happen if he fainted on the street.

He was taken in by a female cultivator.

"Then...he discovered he was a woman..."

While swiping through the character attribute panel in a daze, Shi Yan didn't notice that... besides the drunken icon, another part of his character attribute panel had also changed.

In her realm.

The cultivation level column was completely covered in purple.

at the same time--

A small parenthesis was added after the words "Ninth Level of Purple Mansion Realm".

[Cultivation level: Ninth level of Purple Mansion Realm (in the process of breaking through)]

Shi Yan walked unsteadily.

In her eyes, the pedestrians passing by seemed to have all learned to have three heads and six arms.

Walking through the market, Shi Yan suddenly saw a familiar pattern.

It was a pattern resembling a bluebird with outstretched wings.

Where have I seen myself before?

A woman with her face veiled in black.

Her voice was soft yet unwavering, “You… just call me Aunt Wenren.”

The dark patterns on Wenren Ershu's clothes were also patterns resembling a bluebird with outstretched wings.

Is that the emblem of Frost Rainbow Valley or the emblem of the Wenren family?

Shi Yan's little mind was completely blank.

The tavern owner's slightly teasing words seemed to echo in his mind again: "At noon today... a caravan from the Wen family will be coming to the market to purchase supplies."

Noon?

Is it already noon?

It was like falling asleep in math class during the summer.

Shi Yan felt as if he had only been in a daze for a short while, but it felt like several hours had passed.

She didn't even know if she had been in a daze for a while on the second floor of the tavern, or after leaving the tavern.

Shi Yan bit her tongue again.

Looking down, she noticed that her shadow was very short.

"Is it...almost noon already?"

Clang, clang—

The sound of armor clashing rang in my ears.

"Son..."

"Young Master—" Faintly, Shi Yan seemed to hear someone calling him.

Is it... calling itself?

As the last vestiges of clarity seemed to fade away, the teacher turned around.

In the swaying vision, only a rather delicate little face remained. Very cute, she looked a lot like a much younger version of Wenren.

Before his last vestige of consciousness was extracted from his body, Shi Yan pressed his left hand against the jade sword on his chest.

"Nine..."

"Nine..."

In the end, she couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed forward limply.

The girl hurriedly helped him up, "Young master!"

The next second—

The girl was completely stunned.
