Chapter 717 (1/2)

Chapter 717: 315 Chapter 717: 315 The appearance of the black-robed old man made it very easy for him to get beaten up, probably because his cultivation was not low, he dared to act this way.

If his cultivation were any lower, his tavern might have been demolished by now.

As the words of the black-robed old man fell, Lin Jing distinctly saw Changyun Yuanlei’s corners of the mouth twitch involuntarily.

Clearly.

For that sentence, Changyun Yuanlei felt it deeply.

However, fortunately, Lin Jing had been mentally prepared and managed to remain relatively calm.

In his earlier conversation with Changyun Yuanlei, Lin Jing had vaguely guessed that this black-robed old man was not easy to deal with.

That’s why he had asked those two questions before the transaction, what he feared was the authenticity of that place.

As long as that place was real, then it would be relatively easy to deal with.

Having access to System Space, there was basically nowhere he couldn’t go, and as for any pitfalls the old man left later, Lin Jing didn’t particularly care.

……

Following this.

Lin Jing spoke directly to the black-robed old man:

“Thank you, senior, we’ll pass on that for now, I’d like to try it out myself first.”

After leaving the tavern, the two did not linger in the market but headed towards the outskirts.

Not until they were a good distance from the market did Changyun Yuanlei finally couldn’t resist asking Lin Jing:

“Big brother!”

“You saw that old man too, this is another trap.”

“I told you, that old man is up to no good, and now even you, big brother, have been duped for one hundred thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones.”

Lin Jing remained very calm and simply said:

“It’s okay!”

“Let’s find a secluded place to establish a cave dwelling first, and later I’ll treat you to Drunken Soul Wine.”

“But…”

Changyun Yuanlei wanted to say more, but seeing Lin Jing so composed, he eventually held back.

“Sigh…”

In the end, Changyun Yuanlei sighed reluctantly, shook his head, and went with Lin Jing to find that secluded area.

……

There were many cultivators on Lost Soul Island, especially near the market, basically every mountaintop had been developed into cave dwellings.

It took Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei quite a while, but eventually, under Changyun Yuanlei’s lead, they found a not too tall but rather secluded peak near evening.

After locating this suitable peak for establishing their cave dwellings, the two were busy for a while, eventually managing to carve out two cave dwellings midway up the mountain.

After the cave dwellings were established, Lin Jing then went to Changyun Yuanlei’s dwelling, planning to taste the Drunken Soul Wine together.

Changyun Yuanlei’s dwelling was cleaned up specially by him, and although it looked simple, it was also very neat and clean.

Even in the middle of the dwelling, Changyun Yuanlei had specially carved a set of stone table and chairs.

After Lin Jing arrived, he and Changyun Yuanlei sat down.

Then,

Lin Jing took out the Drunken Soul Wine from his Space Ring.

And Changyun Yuanlei, at that moment, brought out a set of drinking utensils that had been prepared beforehand.

Following this, Lin Jing directly opened the Drunken Soul Wine.

The jar of Drunken Soul Wine was sealed with three layers, and these three layers kept the wine inside very securely, not even a trace of aroma escaped.

When Lin Jing opened these layers one by one, the aroma of the wine grew stronger, especially when opening the last seal, the intoxicating aroma instantly filled the entire cave.

This aroma was truly worthy of being brewed from Jade Soul Algae; simply the scent wafting out was already intoxicating.

Although Changyun Yuanlei was very displeased with the black-robed old man, he praised the Drunken Soul Wine to no end.

“Truly delicious!”

“Even though that old man is unreliable, his Drunken Soul Wine is indeed beyond reproach.”

“If it weren’t so expensive, I wouldn’t be feeling so distressed.”

At this, Lin Jing looked at Changyun Yuanlei and asked:

“Didn’t you buy a jar before?

Have you finished it?”

Upon hearing this, Changyun Yuanlei was first stunned, then his face suddenly fell.

“The jar of Drunken Soul Wine I bought before, I barely dared to drink it, hoping to savor it slowly.”

“Unfortunately, I was out of luck.

During one tasting session, I encountered a madman obsessed with alcohol, he didn’t steal anything else, just my wine.”

“I hardly dared drink much of that jar, and there was still most of it left when it was stolen, truly breaking my heart…”

After hearing this, Lin Jing was also at a loss for words.

Having been with Changyun Yuanlei lately, he constantly heard him complain about his misfortunes, Lin Jing was starting to feel sorry for him.

Following this,

Lin Jing poured the wine into a jug, and then poured a cup for each of them, eager to taste the wine brewed from Jade Soul Algae.

After pouring the wine, Lin Jing pushed one cup towards Changyun Yuanlei, then comforted him:

“Old things must go for new to come, don’t dwell on it…”

“Come, let’s drink!”

Changyun Yuanlei showed a touched expression, took the wine cup from Lin Jing, and then nodded vigorously.

Lin Jing then picked up his cup and toasted with Changyun Yuanlei before he downed the entire cup in one go.

Seeing Lin Jing drink it all in one gulp, Changyun Yuanlei also downed the Drunken Soul Wine in one gulp.
