131 The suspicions about their reincarnation. (1/2)
With Li Yang's speed, it didn't take long for him to reach the place where Fang Ying and Zhao Feng were waiting for him, a cave that Zhao Feng dug into a somewhat large hill on the western end of the island. He could tell that the cave was at least 10 meters tall and nearly twice as wide, going at least 300 or so meters into the hill.
Li Yang walked into the cave, a small orb of fire floating in front of him to provide a source of light as he got deeper into the cave. When he reached the end of the cave, the corners of his lips couldn't help but twitch slightly. There was a rather large house standing in front of him, it was so large that it almost perfectly fit into the cave both height-wise and length-wise.
Li Yang pushed open the strangely ornate and wavy door of the house, entering a spacy living room that contained an excessive amount of couches and tables, it looked more like a reception room than a living room. Seeing Zhao Feng and Fang Ying sitting on two of the couches that surrounded a rectangular crystal table, drinking tea from what appeared to be jade cups, he couldn't help but comment.
”Why the hell are you just carrying a house wherever you go?”
He was certain that Fang Ying wasn't the one who brought this house so it could only have been Zhao Feng. But he couldn't figure out just why he would be carrying around an entire house, taking up needless space in his interspatial ring. Zhao Feng put down his cup and then waved his finger in front of his face, clicking his tongue a few times.
”Houses, it's plural, get it right. And what, you don't carry around a few houses with you as you travel? I'd say it's pretty normal.”
Fang Ying let out a soft laugh when she saw Zhao Feng's haughty manner, she had already undone her fusion so Langshen was lying on her left and resting his head in her lap, clearly somewhat drained after having to stay fused with her for the entire previous battle. Li Yang walked over to the couch, rolling his eyes all the while.
”Oh well, fucking excuse me for not knowing the contents of your interspatial ring. And no, no I don't carry around a few houses, I'd say it's pretty far from normal. What sort of reason could you possibly have for bringing along a house, much less more than one?”
Not even in his past life had Li Yang, or Zhao Feng for that matter, dragged around a house in their interspatial ring, they just dug simple caves or rested in inns when they wanted to sleep. Li Yang meant for his question to be rhetorical, but Zhao Feng still stretched out finger after finger, listing several reasons.
”Well, first of all, you can use it to sleep at night, you can cover it in arrays for defense, use it for cooking when you want fresh food, when you want to invite guests, when you want to rest in a good be...”
Li Yang snapped his finger and caused a small hand of ice to appear above Zhao Feng, the hand chopped down on Zhao Feng's head and interrupted him. Meanwhile, Li Yang rubbed the bridge of his nose and let out an exasperated breath.
”I'll cut you off there, I feel like listening to anymore will give me a headache. Really, you were eccentric in the past, but you've reached new heights now, you've become an actual spoiled prince.”
Li Yang could only chalk this up to the fact that Zhao Feng had been born as the Silver Dragon Prince of the Demon Race, who else would give him stupid ideas like this? Zhao Feng didn't disagree, swatting away the hand of ice while beating his chest and declaring in a grand voice.
”Damn right! Once you get a taste of the good life, you can never go back! Just you wait, Shu'er will agree with me once we find her again!”
Li Yang could only let out a sigh, waving his arm and causing the hand of ice to dissipate. He glanced at the jade cups and the tea in them for a short second before sitting down on the seat right next to Fang Ying, leaning against the back of the couch.
”Alright, hand me some actual drink and let's get on to the actual topic at hand, how you guys managed to reincarnate.”
Li Yang wasn't much of a tea person, he had always been fonder of wine, a fact that was true even in this new life of his. Now that they weren't in the midst of a battle they also finally had time to hear about how Zhao Feng and the others had managed to reincarnate on their own, a feat that was practically impossible. Zhao Feng nodded his head but then seemed to remember something, swiping his interspatial ring and bringing out a gourd that seemed to have been made using the shell of a strange pear-like fruit that had markings similar to a watermelon.
”Before that, you should try this. I had the brewers in our capital do their best to replicate Old Mam Chao's wine, it's quite an experience to drink it.”
Li Yang slightly raised an eyebrow when he accepted the gourd. The wine from Old Man Chao was one of the best wines even back when they were at their peak, they had drunk it whenever they had the chance. Fang Ying had the people of the Tian clan attempt to replicate it, but while it ended up close it wasn't quite the same. Li Yang put the gourd to his mouth and swallowed a good mouthful, spitting it out almost instantly while cursing.
”FUCK! That's absolutely vile!”
