The three of them then remembered that they had actually neglected Xu Nianliang, so they started to search around the courtyard.

Not long after, they found Xu Nianliang by a big rock in the backyard. He was holding the big rock happily like an octopus, enjoying himself very much.

When Ao Cheng saw this, he raised his hand and slapped Xu Nianliang’s face without thinking. Immediately, a bright red palm print appeared.

“Stop fooling around. Let me sleep for a while.” Xu Nianliang waved his hand, and a slightly obscene smile appeared on his face.

This made the few of them very curious. What was this guy dreaming about that could make him look so obscene?

Ao Cheng rolled up his sleeves, and a sneer appeared on his face. He raised his arm and was about to slap the other party, but was stopped by Kong Yuhuai.

“I’m afraid that’s not good, right?”

“What’s not good about it? A drunkard has to scream like this to wake up,” Ao Cheng said as he slapped Xu Nianliang.

“Ao!”

A miserable scream sounded as Xu Nianliang was sent rolling away. Only then did he cover his face, his face filled with anger as if he wanted to swear.

He saw three pairs of eyes staring at him.

Immediately, Xu Nianliang’s body trembled. “Your Highness, I’m sorry. I… I drank too much and overslept!”

Jiang Xiaobai sighed and shook his head. This poor child was a little miserable.

After tidying up the courtyard, the few of them sat down and drank tea to sober up. They chatted for a while, and it was already noon.

After lunch, Ao Yan came over, indicating that they had already finished their business here and should go back.

Originally, Third Elder wanted to let Jiang Xiaobai undergo a cleansing so that his cultivation would be faster.

Although he knew that he was an alchemist, Third Elder did not expect Jiang Xiaobai to be so good at alchemy. Therefore, he did not bother about it.

Before he left, Kong Yuhuai still looked reluctant. He was very satisfied with this new friend.

Then, he said that he would come to Dragon Valley in the future if he had the chance. He asked Jiang Xiaobai to come to Five Lotus Mountain more often when he was free so that the two of them could exchange alchemy knowledge.

Jiang Xiaobai readily agreed to it.

They came suddenly and left in a hurry. The group of people rushed back to Dragon Valley.

After they returned, Ao Cheng had gone off somewhere. Ao Yan was racing against time to cultivate. Only Jiang Xiaobai was free to sit in the courtyard and drink tea.

The trip this time was quite a big harvest for him.

He had gained a friend of the Holy Son of an alchemy faction. As long as they had a good relationship in the future, they would be a great help in times of crisis.

Moreover, his relationship with Ao Cheng had improved a lot.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai felt that he had not wasted his efforts during this period of time. Then, he began to check the system’s rewards for the last few times.

He vaguely remembered that when he drank last night, he seemed to have triggered some choices.

Looking at the system’s records, he indeed found the choice he had made when he drank yesterday. He had chosen to out-drink his opponent out of the three choices and received 100,000 high-grade spirit stones.

Following that, Jiang Xiaobai sorted out his rewards.

He had already obtained 20% of Laojun’s alchemical skills. He had also obtained the Earth Vein Separation Scripture and the Kun Peng Heaven Swallowing Technique.

Following that, he had encountered the Ancient Clan outside and obtained the Abhijna Escape Technique. The system’s attacks were quite powerful. Jiang Xiaobai could be said to have greatly improved his life-saving methods by using the escape art.

It was worth mentioning that when he went out, he adopted Hu Sheng. If he cultivated to the Foundation Establishment realm within ten years, he would have another 1/10th of Laojun’s alchemy skills.
