755 What Have You Been Learning? (1/2)

”Hence, the wine that fell into Yun Yang's possession is truly the last from the God of Wine - the final entity from him that would cease to exist in this world.”

Yun Yang laughed heartily. ”Big Brother Ling has spoken truly. Besides us, not many in this world deserve to drink such wine. Let's just treat it as a gift from Mr. Nian. Drink up, drink up… all of you drink up! Feel free to lose all sense of sobriety! Don't you dare leave if you ain't drunk!”

Just like that, he tossed out ten pots of wine generously.

”Astounding!” Xiao Shaoqing let out a hearty laugh as his eyes shimmered. ”Young Master Yun is truly a straightforward man!”

It was then followed by a gesture which was unexpected by all.

Crack!

With a snap of his fingers, he sealed up the mystical Qi from his own cultivation base completely.

The minds of everybody present spun quickly to process what they had just witnessed, but they could not grasp what this fellow was playing at. What the hell do you think you're doing?

”To drink, one must seal up his mystical Qi. The way the high-level practitioners activate their mystical Qi has already become basic instinct - they don't have to do this deliberately. This could also - to a large degree - prevent the feeling of dizziness and drunkenness and keep your head clear - but this ability in itself is very irritating to drinkers.”

”Drinking - why do we drink? What do we accomplish by drinking?” Xiao Shaoqing was completely enraptured by the moment. ”We drink to get drunk, to experience the dizziness after that. Oh yes, that floating feeling like a God, that feeling of strolling on the edge of the clouds - that satisfaction, that free and easy vibe, that state of mind… tsk tsk…”

Xiao Shaoqing closed his eyes, shaking his head while he was at it as if he was recalling past sentiments.

”Therefore, I have confirmed that mystical Qi should not be activated when drinking.”

Xiao Shaoqing was fervently promoting his twisted ideas to the crowd, but they only reacted with the rolling of their eyes. Not a single person responded to his nonsensical insights - not even Bai Yixue, whom Xiao Shaoqing had accepted his abilities and teachings from.

Yun Yang, the host of the banquet, was rolling his eyes innumerable times upon hearing this fellow's torrent of nonsense. He remained speechless for a long time.

Those present today were all highly-esteemed guests of stellar reputation. They knew that there was no real threat to it - but who would dare to seal off their mystical Qi for real - just to drink?

Everything else aside, if this table of men were to seal off their mystical Qi for the pleasure of drinking… what would happen if they were attacked by enemies that decided to show up suddenly? Would they all not be wiped out at one go by the incoming enemy?

If it ever played out to such an end, they would be jeered and laughed at until the end of time before they could even explain the absurdity of the situation.

”Piece of shit!”

Dugu Chou was swimming in a sea of wrath.

He finally knew the reason behind the careless, low-level mistakes committed by this fellow. He would lose his things for the longest of times and not realize it himself.

So this was the reason why!

This fellow had always been sealing off his mystical Qi before drinking…

”The fact that you can wander around out there for so long and not perish yet - that in itself is a humongous blessing of its own!” Dugu Chou's face was as black as the bottom of a wok.

”Oh master, you praise me too much! Although this is the truth…” Xiao Shaoqing rambled on, thick-skinned. ”My fortune and luck were both bestowed by you, my master-”

”Get lost!”

Before he even finished his sentence, he was kicked out of the way by Dugu Chou.

”Don't learn from your master! Sigh...” Dugu Chou said.

Seated at a corner, Bai Yixue kept as silent as possible and was trying his very best to minimize his presence by compressing his body to it's tiniest possible form. Yet, he was unexpectedly called upon, and had no choice but to comply bitterly, ”This disciple shall do as you say, and will try his very best…”
