Chapter 384.3 (2/2)

“Your ability to understand things is really strong. Your level of concentration is not bad too.”

The reason why this person complimented Ning Fan’s power of understanding was certainly because he had heard him speaking his comprehension of the Dao from the beginning until the end.

The reason why he complimented Ning Fan’s level of concentration was because Ning Fan was able to stand at his spot without moving or speaking until the gentleman appeared.

“Who are you, senior?”

“Yun.” That gentleman only uttered a single word but it instantly made Ning Fan’s expression change.

Ning Fan could not see through this gentleman’s cultivation base. The amount of pressure he gave him could rival Emperor Moksha!

This word immediately made Ning Fan recall the message he got from Lu Qing before he left the Lost World Palace.

“Pass my test and you’ll gain the token of a revered being. - Yun”

Ning Fan’s eyes were solemn.

This white-robed gentleman was obviously the Void Fragmentation Realm old monster who came from the Rain Palace to test me!

Almost at the same moment, Ning Fan shook his Cauldron Ring and took out an ancient pouch.

He had cast aside the pouch to the deepest corner of the enormous space within the Cauldron Ring and had kept it there for a very long time.

Within the storage pouch was the strongest trump card that Ning Fan had so far – the rogue devil[1]!

Ning Fan had once thought that he might be able to control the rogue devil with some effort using different types of methods once he attains the Peak Divine Transformation Realm.

But honestly, he did not have one hundred percent confidence that he would surely be able to do so with his current cultivation realm.

Opening the storage pouch at the Peak Divine Transformation Realm was no doubt a gamble.

If he manages to control the rogue devil, he would then have the strength to dominate the entire Rain World.

If he fails, however, he would die right there and then. Everything he went through and all of his effort in Dao cultivation would be gone.

He would never make such a dangerous bet unless he found an opportunity that was worth gambling his life for.

However, when he met this white-robed gentleman, he had the urge to make the bet without any hesitation.

If this gentleman harbors malicious intent against him, he would open the pouch and unleash the rogue devil to fight against him!

Even if it would cost him his life, he would also want to make the latter perish together with him!

“It seems like there’s something incredible inside your little pouch.” The white-robed gentleman nodded his head but shook his head a second later.

“If I want to take your life, you would have died long ago. Five days ago, I arrived at the Lost World Tower and left a piece of jade… You should know what that means.”

The meaning of his words was obvious without even any explanation.

Five days ago, Ning Fan was still asleep and he still needed Bei Xiaoman’s care.

During that time, he had no way to protect himself or formations for self-preservation. If the white-robed gentleman wanted to kill him, it would be a piece of cake.

Since he did not kill Ning Fan that time, then he would not kill him now. At the very least, Ning Fan knew how this worked.

He kept the pouch containing the rogue devil and stared coldly at the white-robed gentleman. Then, he cupped his fists and asked.

“May I be so bold as to ask how Senior plans to test me?”

“You know a lot about wine, don’t you?”

“Just a little.” Ning Fan did not sound modest but he did not act arrogantly too.

“I overheard your conversation previously. You really seem to have some knowledge about wine. However, I don’t like talking rubbish. I only look at a single benchmark to find out whether or not you truly know about wine and that is how much you can drink!”

Yun Tianjue patted his storage pouch and a ray of sword light shot out from within. It transformed into a ship with the shape of a sword.

He descended to the ship and lifted the sail. After that, he touched his storage pouch again. Bottles of spiritual wine piled up like a mountain. All of them were from the Green Bamboo Palace.

When Ning Fan was having a deep conversation with Weiyu, he had actually emptied out all the wine cellars of the Green Bamboo Palace!

“Have a drink with me.”

“Can I assume that this is Senior’s test for me?”

“You can think whatever you like.”

Ning Fan landed on the sword ship and sat in a meditative posture just like Yun Tianjue. Both of them began to drink together. However, the atmosphere remained silent as if they had no common topic to talk about.

However, when they sat facing each other and drank, there was no element of contrast at all.

Suddenly, the furrow between Yun Tianjue’s brows became deeper. He could not understand why he, an antisocial and solitary person, would decide to drink wine with an unfamiliar junior.

However, he did not reject this feeling.

“If you become drunk, you will fail the test.” Yun Tianjue uttered indifferently.

“I won’t become drunk!” Ning Fan smiled confidently. That smile made Yun Tianjue feel a bit stunned.

He seemed to have seen that smile before on a woman’s face. He was very familiar with him yet he could not remember where he had seen it.

Who was it…?
