Chapter 3: Get Out, Kneel in Front of the Hall

Actually, even if there was some medicine or poison in the wine, Cang Qiansxue wasn’t worried.

He had cultivated a technique that could expel any medicine or poison absorbed into his body through his speech and breathing, without affecting himself.

He was simply curious about what was in the wine that made Su Jiu so nervous.

Cang Qiansxue looked at his friend’s disciple.

His friend was cold and aloof, and didn’t like people getting close to him. So when he picked up a skinny little girl from a dilapidated temple in the human world, Cang Qiansxue was surprised.

The little girl was thin and small, even her cries were weak, like a newborn kitten, and she looked like she wouldn’t survive the winter.

Cang Qiansxue originally thought that Shen Wangchen might not have much patience, at most he would just leave the child to the people in the sect to raise.

But unexpectedly, Shen Wangchen, who always hated trouble, actually brought the little girl back to Budo Hall and raised her.

Cang Qiansxue had seen her three times, once when she was just picked up by Shen Wangchen and brought back to Qianyuan Sect, once when she was five years old, and the last time was when she was thirteen.

The skinny little girl he had first seen had now grown into such a pretty and graceful young woman, and she seemed to have a lot of secrets.

Cang Qiansxue was truly curious.

Hearing Cang Qiansxue say that the wine was clean, Su Jiu subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

【So Uncle Master Cang didn’t see it either, then I can rest assured… Rest assured about what? There’s something in it, damn it! I have to find an excuse, I can’t let Master drink it, Uncle Master can drink it if he wants, it won’t affect him anyway.】

【The problem is, how can I make Master not drink it in a way that’s natural and won’t make people misunderstand…】

【Should I try to act cute?】

【No, no, I’ll die if I try. Master hates it when people act cute and try to be adorable, and if I have to pinch my voice and say “Master, don’t drink, I’m worried about you,” I really want to die.】

Trying to say that sentence in her mind with a pinched voice, Su Jiu was disgusted by herself.

【yue~】

“Cough, cough, cough…”

Mu Yunqing on the side coughed, his eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Su Jiu.

“Junior Sister, you—”

He seemed to hear the girl’s words just now.

“Master, don’t drink, I’m worried about you~”

The deliberately pinched voice was sweet and delicate, every word seemed to have a hook, soft and fluffy, falling into people’s hearts like feathers, making their hearts itch.

Although he knew it was said to Master, Mu Yunqing still felt uncomfortable all over.

He couldn’t help but look at Shen Wangchen, his brows furrowed with worry.

Master hated it when people spoke to him in that tone, Junior Sister knew it yet she still said it, she must have angered Master.

Look, Master’s hands are shaking with anger.

“Su—”

Before he could finish, Cang Qiansxue stretched out his long arm and handed the wine cup in front of Shen Wangchen to him, “We haven’t touched a cup together after all this talk, come on Wangchen, let’s have a toast.”

Cang Qiansxue and Shen Wangchen had been friends for hundreds of years, how could he not see that his friend was disgusted by that sentence.

Seeing him looking uncomfortable, Cang Qiansxue laughed without any regard for his image.

After all these years, this was the first time he had seen his friend, who was always like a sculpture, with no expression other than indifference, show such a disgusted expression, as if he had eaten a fly.

He was delighted.

Cang Qiansxue glanced at the nervous girl beside him, tilted his head back and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, then urged Shen Wangchen, “Drink!”

Shen Wangchen pursed his lips, took his gaze away from Su Jiu, and his tone became even colder, “Go down.”

As he spoke, he also picked up the wine cup, about to bring it to his lips, but he caught sight of his only female disciple staring at the wine cup in his hand, her mouth slightly open.

【This wine—】

Shen Wangchen paused, his heart softened by her appearance, “You want to drink too? Didn’t I tell your senior brother to give you all some?”

Su Jiu’s eyes widened, and she quickly said, “Master, I just wanted to taste it, last time Senior Brother gave us wine…”

She quickly recalled, although Shen Wangchen had left them a jar, heaven was her witness, Su Jiu had never drunk it.

Mu Yunqing said from the side, “At that time, Junior Sister was out on a mission, she wrote back to me, telling me to share it with the junior brothers, she doesn’t drink.”

Su Jiu nodded vigorously, “Yes, yes, yes! It’s just that today, I smelled the aroma of this wine, and my mouth is watering, I want to taste it…”

To prove that she was really craving it, Su Jiu deliberately licked her lips.

Her bright red tongue licked over her slightly dry pink lips, and her lips, moistened by the liquid, instantly became glistening and translucent.

Cang Qiansxue’s gaze involuntarily fell on the girl’s lips.

Shen Wangchen frowned slightly, as if he was exasperated, he glanced at her, and finally handed her the wine cup beside him.

His tone was tinged with disdain, “Taste it.”

Su Jiu’s eyes widened as she stared at the wine cup in Shen Wangchen’s hand, the liquid inside exuded a rich aroma of wine, and the surface of the wine was slightly swaying.

She swallowed, “I, I drink?”

【I want to drink?】

There’s poison in it, she wants to drink a fart!

Shen Wangchen’s brows furrowed with impatience, “Didn’t you want to taste it?”

Su Jiu mumbled, “I wanted to taste it…” did I?

It’s you three who are staring at me now, I can’t not drink it!

Su Jiu was about to cry, but the three of them were all staring at her, Mu Yunqing was hesitant to speak, Cang Qiansxue was amused, and Shen Wangchen was slightly impatient.

She could only silently swallow the words on her lips, and sighed with a smile, “Yes, I want to drink.”

【I might as well drink the whole jar, then I can just say I don’t know anything!】

Su Jiu took the wine cup from Shen Wangchen’s hand and tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp.

The Hundred Day Brew was brewed by Shen Wangchen himself, it wasn’t spicy, but rather sweet and mellow after entering the mouth, with a hint of mixed fruit and flower aromas, the liquid was smooth, and it slid down her throat as soon as it entered.

Su Jiu finished the cup, licked her lips, and her cheeks were already flushed.

She simply stretched out her hand, holding the wine cup, “Another cup.”

Shen Wangchen’s brow jumped.

Really drink a whole jar?

How could she be so fond of drinking at such a young age?

“No,” he coldly refused, reaching out to take the wine cup from Su Jiu’s hand. However, she slammed the cup down on the table with a clang, then picked up the wine jar beside her with both hands and drank from it, chugging away.

【Hey, I’m so smart! If they ask me what happened later, I’ll just say I’m drunk!】

【Don’t say it, this wine is actually pretty good, if it wasn’t for the… Woah! There’s “Three Days of Beauty” in it!】

Drinking too much, Su Jiu had forgotten about the “Three Days of Beauty” she had administered when she was unconscious.

Three Days of Beauty?

Cang Qiansxue sat up slightly, pondering.

He had seen all sorts of things in the Three Realms, but this “Three Days of Beauty” was something he had never heard of.

Cang Qiansxue looked at Shen Wangchen, but saw that his friend didn’t seem to notice Su Jiu’s thoughts, and was looking at her with a cold anger.

“Junior Sister!”

Mu Yunqing wanted to snatch the wine jar from Su Jiu’s arms, but she was quick, and without caring about the liquid that slipped from her lips and wet her chest, she tilted her head back and drank large gulps.

Half the wine went into her stomach, and half wet her clothes.

The thin clothes were quickly soaked, clinging to her chest, smelling of wine, and the shape of the girl’s inner garments, along with the prominent bulge, was clearly visible.

Mu Yunqing had just reached out, but as Su Jiu dodged, his hand accidentally brushed against the exceptionally soft object.

He froze for a moment, then his cheeks instantly flushed red, his ears were red too, and his wrist trembled as he retracted his hand.

“Junior Sister…”

Seeing that Shen Wangchen and Cang Qiansxue’s gazes also fell on them, Mu Yunqing gritted his teeth, ignoring everything else, took out a change of clothes from his storage bag, and quickly put it on Su Jiu.

In just a short while, Su Jiu had finished the whole jar of wine.

Her mind was dizzy, her lips slightly parted, and she burped.

Cang Qiansxue propped his chin and laughed, “It seems that Little Su Jiu really lives up to her name, she really loves to drink.”

Shen Wangchen was surrounded by a cold aura, he lowered his gaze and looked at the empty wine jar that had slipped from Su Jiu’s hand and was rolling around on the ground, his voice was cold like ice.

“Get out.”

“Kneel at the entrance of the hall, when you sober up, you can get up!”
