“This wine is of great importance!”
Yan Wanfei, having been kicked by Holaw Three Rivers, immediately wore a face full of grievance:
“I didn’t say I wanted to drink it, just wanted to have a look…”
Immediately after, Holaw Three Rivers handed the jar of wine back to Lu Youjiu.
Lu Youjiu took the wine jar, then looked at Lin Jing:
“It’s this jar of wine.
You give this jar to Changyun Yuanlei, and he will naturally know my identity.”
“At that time, he will definitely go to Qingshuang to inquire about the situation.
As long as he finds Changyun Qingshuang, won’t the rest be easy to handle?”
The jar of wine that Lin Jing had just taken out was none other than the Drunken Soul Wine that had knocked Changyun Yuanlei out twice before in the Five Elements Ruins.
After buying the Drunken Soul Wine, Lin Jing had drunk quite a bit, and now only this little bit was left.
This wine, unique to the Drunken Soul Tavern, could be recognized by its mere scent—once he smelled it, he would understand that he had already arrived.
Knowing he had arrived, Changyun Yuanlei would not remain indifferent.
…
Lu Youjiu took the wine jar from Holaw Three Rivers, first opened it to look inside, then immediately sealed it again.
Before, Lin Jing had told Lu Youjiu about his encounter with Changyun Yuanlei in the Five Elements Ruins, and Lu Youjiu knew that this must be the wine that had once made Changyun Yuanlei drunk.
Afterwards, Lu Youjiu looked at Lin Jing and nodded appreciatively.
…
…
The next steps were easy to handle.
Lu Youjiu then took out a new jar, and transferred the less-than-half jar of wine into a beautifully crafted smaller wine jar.
After repacking the wine, Lu Youjiu handed the jar of Drunken Soul Wine directly to Changyun Qingshuang.
Thereafter, Lu Youjiu gave Changyun Qingshuang some pointers on what to do when the time came.
Then, they discussed the plan further.
After the discussion, Changyun Qingshuang departed.
Lin Jing and the others also left the Celestial Residence at Yunhai.
As they were leaving, Yan Wanfei sidled up to Lin Jing.
“Brother Lin…”
“Do you still have any of that wine left?”
“That wine smells so good, just one sniff and you know it has to be delicious.”
Lin Jing then said with a smile:
“I knew you couldn’t let it go.”
Holaw Three Rivers looked at Yan Wanfei with a disdainful expression that was all too evident:
“Sometimes I really don’t want to say it…”
“It’s just one jar, and yet you’re still fixated on it.”
“Heh heh…”
Yan Wanfei, unconcerned, just chuckled.
Lin Jing then added:
“That jar of wine is of special origin, likely very hard to come by again.”
Upon hearing this, Yan Wanfei instantly looked disappointed.
But just then, Lin Jing unexpectedly changed the subject:
“However…”
Yan Wanfei perked up, suddenly looking up at Lin Jing.
Lin Jing smiled slightly, then continued:
“Although I can’t produce that exact wine, I can get something similar.
Though there might be some minor taste difference, it will definitely be delicious.”
Upon hearing this, Yan Wanfei hastily moved closer to Lin Jing:
“Brother Lin…”
“You know me, I rarely ask anyone for anything…”
Lin Jing, upon hearing this, quickly put up a hand to stop him from continuing:
“Hold it…”
“I know what you’re going to say next, you can stop there.”
“Just wait a while, let Brother Lu handle this matter first, then I’ll get you a similar jar of wine.”
Although the original Drunken Soul Wine was beyond Lin Jing’s ability to craft, making a similar exquisite wine was still no problem for him.
After all, the main ingredient of Drunken Soul Wine was Jade Soul Algae.
By adding Jade Soul Algae and a few other ingredients that could produce a drunken effect to the wine, one could achieve the intoxicating effect.
Lin Jing had plenty of Jade Soul Algae, and obtaining the other ingredients was not very difficult.
Crafting a few jars of wine similar to Drunken Soul Wine was easily done.
Upon hearing this, Yan Wanfei nodded repeatedly:
“Heh heh…”
“I knew Brother Lin was the best.”
Lin Jing: “…”
…
…
After returning from Yunhai Celestial Residence, they still had to wait for a while.
Wait for Changyun Qingshuang to send them a message.
This time.
They had waited several days before Lu Youjiu finally received a message from Changyun Yuanshuang.
After receiving the message, Lu Youjiu once again brought a few people to the Cloud Sea Immortal Residence.
It was the same private room as before.
This time, as soon as several people entered, aside from Changyun Qingshuang,
another person was sitting beside her, and this person was none other than Changyun Yuanlei.
Seeing Changyun Yuanlei again, Lin Jing couldn’t help but feel somewhat emotional.
He had thought he would not have any dealings with him again for a while.
Unexpectedly, after he had left, he met him again so soon, and this time, it was he who had sought him out.
As Lin Jing and his companions arrived, Changyun Yuanlei quickly looked towards them.
However, since everyone was in disguise, Changyun Yuanlei couldn’t tell which one was Lin Jing.
Afterward.
The door to the private room closed, and the isolation Formation inside was activated again.
Lin Jing and his companions then canceled their disguises, returning to their original appearances.
?????.??
The instant he saw Lin Jing, Changyun Yuanlei was both stunned and overjoyed:
“Big brother…”
“I didn’t expect it to really be you.”
“When I was sent out before, I was a bit worried.”
“Seeing that you are unharmed, I’m really relieved.”
Lin Jing smiled, examining Changyun Yuanlei for a moment.
Now, Changyun Yuanlei had reached the late stage of Nascent Soul cultivation.
In just over fifty years, Changyun Yuanlei had advanced from the early stage to the late stage of Nascent Soul, an indeed swift increase in cultivation.
Clearly,
the resources Changyun Clan had invested in him must have been substantial.
After examining him, Lin Jing then spoke:
“It’s been decades, and your cultivation has improved significantly.”
Hearing this, Changyun Yuanlei looked dejected:
“Big brother…
“Don’t mention it, after I returned, the family’s supervision over me became stricter, and it’s inconvenient for me to do anything.”
“Although my cultivation has increased a lot, I don’t feel free at all.”
“This time out, I exhausted all means, and finally only with my sister’s advice did I manage to temporarily evade the uncles and come out with cousin Qingshuang to meet you all.”
At this point, Lu Youjiu spoke up, asking Changyun Yuanlei:
“How is your sister now?”
Changyun Yuanlei quickly looked towards Lu Youjiu:
“Brother-in-law…
“You don’t need to worry, my sister is fine.”
“And she’s been trying to find a way to leave as well, just hasn’t found a better method yet.”
Having said that, Changyun Yuanlei began to complain:
“I really don’t know what the family is thinking, actually wanting my sister to marry that heir of the Lin Family.”
“If it’s really a clan catastrophe, is sacrificing my sister alone not enough?
I doubt it.”
“And that heir of the Lin Family, I’ve met him, and he seems just ordinary, with nothing particularly special about him.”
“Yet those uncles and grandfathers in the family still want me to get to know him better and get close to him.”
“Really…”
“He’s aiming to take my sister, how could I possibly want to get close to him?”
Having said that, Changyun Yuanlei directly looked towards Lu Youjiu, speaking indignantly:
“Brother-in-law!”
“Cousin Qingshuang already told me about your plan.”
“I fully support it.”
“Take my sister and elope, just the two of you.”
After hearing what Changyun Yuanlei had said, Lu Youjiu fell silent for a moment before speaking:
“Actually…”
“I think you should get to know that heir of the Lin Family a bit more.”
“That way, when the time comes, we can take him with us.”
As Lu Youjiu’s words fell, Changyun Yuanlei was momentarily stunned and then looked towards Lu Youjiu, puzzled:
“But why, brother-in-law…”
“At this point, why would we still want to take him with us?”
Lu Youjiu then looked towards Lin Jing before speaking:
“That heir of the Lin Family has a deep connection with Brother Lin.”
“Brother Lin actually came here this time for her.”
After hearing what Lu Youjiu said, Changyun Yuanlei turned his gaze towards Lin Jing, his eyes filled with great confusion:
“Big brother…”
“That kid, to you…?”
Lin Jing nodded, then spoke:
“Some matters that are to follow will need your help, so there’s naturally no need to keep secrets from you anymore.”
“That ‘kid’ you’re referring to is actually my sister…”
