After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

The way a girl slightly sticks out the tip of her tongue to sip wine reminds her of a cat.

She also took a small sip.

Seriously... how many times have I swallowed my saliva now?

It's really not her fault for lacking perseverance.

In this thousand years... she has seen everything.

It's all because the girls are too tempting, so tempting that she can't help but want to bully them.

After all... we can only bully her before she finds everything back.

Moreover, those who are bullied now will likely retaliate even more severely in the future.

but--

So what?

The tavern owner considers herself an 'omnivore'.

No matter what, I'll make a killing.

I was prepared for something spicy to swallow, but... it was somewhat unexpected.

The wine is soft and sweet on the palate.

With a slightly astringent fruity aroma, the mellow sweetness of the tea lingers on the lips and teeth.

The spiritual energy within his body surged.

But... for Shi Yan, this situation was really just a minor matter.

Back when she had little cultivation, she seemed unaffected even after Wen Ruya stuffed so much of her natal demonic energy into her.

Shi Yan has now reached the ninth level of the Jade Palace Realm.

This situation is really nothing.

A beautiful blush rose to her cheeks as Shi Yan easily suppressed the surging spiritual energy within her body.

Surprisingly—

She licked her lips.

It was really unexpected.

This time... it seems this guy isn't planning on messing with me.

Rather than saying she was handing him wine, it would be more accurate to say it was fruit tea with a slight hint of alcohol.

However, Shi Yan waited a little while before drawing a conclusion.

The scene of this guy tricking him last time still seemed vivid in Shi Yan's mind.

Shi Yan looked at the woman in front of him with suspicion.

The woman simply smiled at her.

"how?"

Do I look like the kind of bad woman who only knows how to cheat people?

Shi Yan nodded without hesitation.

Isn't that so?

She said she couldn't attack herself first, but she didn't say she couldn't retaliate after attacking herself.

Squeezing juice from such expensive spiritual fruits just to mask the smell of alcohol and see oneself in a drunken stupor.

The tavern owner feigned disappointment, "So that's how Sister Shiyan sees me..."

"They are really heartbroken."

Shi Yan felt like his whole body was about to explode with goosebumps.

The tavern owner crossed her arms.

The silk cheongsam concealed everything, but the shadows cast by its folds were already alluring enough.

She looked at Shi Yan.

The girl's flushed face was excessively alluring.

We have enough materials for casting the spell.

It's like stuffing a big stick into your mouth and then stuffing a candy into your mouth.

Girls' bottom line has been completely lost.

It can only be said that not doing anything bad is already a 'miracle' in the eyes of girls.

What was that saying again?

Human nature tends to favor compromise and moderation.

For example, if you say, "This room is too dark, we need to open a window here," everyone will definitely disagree. But if you propose to tear down the roof, they will mediate and agree to open a window.

"Let's get down to business—"

"What brings you here this time, Sister Shiyan?"

The tavern owner's serious demeanor made Shi Yan wonder if the person standing in front of him was a completely different person.

Or is she... preparing some strange PIAY again?

She sipped the fruit tea in her cup slowly.

The fruit tea made by the bar owner suited Shi Yan's taste perfectly, making him feel as if he had returned to the modern world.

The only 'side effect' is that this fruit tea wine has activated the spiritual energy too much.

Shi Yan even felt that if he breathed out now, white spiritual energy would float out of his mouth.

"I'd like you to take us back to Nanjun City," Shi Yan said, looking at the tavern owner with a slightly embarrassed expression.

After all, they didn't cheat me.

Yet he still told others that he would only remember there was such a person in the tavern when he needed her.

Shi Yan actually felt quite embarrassed.

"Oh dear..." The tavern owner's eyes narrowed slightly, her slender white fingers tapping lightly on the table. "Does Sister Shiyan really think this place is the Kyushu Passenger Transport Center?"

"Well."

"It's nothing." The woman stretched lazily, revealing her beautiful figure. "Sister Shiyan, just remember to come to the tavern next time you have time."

"I don't eat people."

"Next time for sure... next time for sure..." Shi Yan could only manage a forced laugh.

"Is there anything else?"

As if suddenly remembering something interesting, Shi Yan recalled the subtle instructions that Lord Dongjun had given him before he left.

"Don't go to the tavern unless you have to."

"That's not a place for good kids."

"Does Sister know Lord Dongjun?"

"It's that one from the Taiyi Sect—"

"Ah~" the tavern owner seemed to suddenly realize something, "Little bunny..."

“Little…rabbit?” Shi Yan looked at the woman in front of him and suddenly felt that he might have discovered some major secret.

The tavern owner rummaged around behind the counter.

Then he pulled out a carrot-shaped wine bottle.

She stood the bottle upright, "Here—"

Is this it?

Shi Yan looked at the lifelike portrait on the wine bottle, a portrait of a glacier girl trying to suppress her shyness as she turned her head to look at the bunny girl next to her.

She seemed to understand why Lord Dongjun had given her those instructions.

Don't come to the tavern unless it's absolutely necessary.

That's terrible.

That woman is truly wicked.

"If Sister Shiyan likes it... I can give it to you."

"You're such a good person!"

How could Shi Yan possibly refuse such a trump card?

Putting aside other things.

Bringing her back to the Love Sea Demon Sect will surely make Lady Wenwan very happy.

Shi Yan seemed to have foreseen the future. At the Heavenly Sacrifice, Lord Dongjun stood beside Lady Wenwan with a humiliated expression, as if he had been held hostage by someone.

But what does that have to do with me?

After thanking the tavern owner again and making a vague promise... that he would definitely do it next time, Shi Yan picked up Ming Zhongqing and carried him away.

She knew that this was in line with the normal course of the plot.

If she left at this time, she should have already returned to Nanjun City.

unless--

The tavern owner also wanted to see someone else.

But...did I forget something?

Shi Yan subconsciously ignored this matter.

Inside the tavern—

The tavern proprietress stroked another jade bottle in her hand. With just a few strokes on the bottle, she vividly depicted a girl leaning against the counter.
