“Right.” Su Junmo took back the bundle. “Next month’s Medical Cultivator Conference, are you going to attend?”
Xue Jinwen’s eyes dimmed, and she shook her head: “Eldest Brother has left for Fentian City. Father and other elders will depart later and meet him at Xingluo City.” Xue Jinwen paused, then she smiled: “But my eldest sister and younger sister will go.”
“Hah…” Su Junmo shook his head.
Xue Jinwen didn’t understand why he sighed. After considering for a while, she asked: “Fellow Daoist Su, is something happened?”
“I met your eldest brother in Fentian City.” Su Junmo didn’t hide this. “He is with Murong and Wen’s two young masters.”
“Yes.” Xue Jinwen nodded, “Huajing Manor, which is located in the border between Eastern and Western Realm, suddenly had many cultivators who were injured by vines. Because the symptoms of the injuries are too strange, they asked for Feng Alliance’s help. Father ordered eldest brother to check it out.”
When Su Junmo traveled in the Western Realm, he stayed as the guest of Feng Alliance. During his stay, he has seen many troubles occurred in the Western Realm, so Xue Jinwen had no need to hide the matter of this time from him. Furthermore, as a celestial demon, Su Junmo was very knowledgeable, and he had helped Feng Alliance a lot, including the Xue clan. Although Xue Jinwen didn’t know how the situation was at her brother’s side, maybe Su Junmo could help.
“Huh?” Su Junmo was startled. “Hurt by vines?”
“Yes.” Xue Jinwen nodded.
“Your brother didn’t mention this.” Su Junmo frowned slightly, “I must go.” He turned and walked out of the courtyard.
Xue Jinwen looked at his drifting back. Her gaze gradually became firm. She turned around, put away the zither, then closed the gate and walked towards the teleportation array.
…
When Meng Qi woke up, her head still ached. She opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling. For a long time, she couldn’t figure out where she was at. The furnishing inside the room gradually became clear, and the events that transpired before she fell asleep also came back in fragments.
Fentian City, Ruyi Inn, Xue Chengxuan…and that cup of mellow and delicious wine!
Meng Qi sat up with annoyance and smacked her head. What a blunder. Did she really get knocked out by just one cup of wine? She wasn’t a good drinker, but she was still a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Meng Qi squinted her eyes slightly. The wine seemed to contain worry-free flower, hibiscus teeth, snow fox orchid… and a few more. When Meng Qi drank it, she didn’t pay much attention. Looking back now, that one cup of wine should contain at least ten or more kinds of spirit flowers and herb. No wonder the effect was so amazing.
Meng Qi wondered if she had done something strange when she was drunk. She shook her head. Meng Qi remembered what Xue Chengxuan said about the Medical Cultivator Conference, but afterward, her memory was foggy. A few images flashed in her head occasionally. She seemed to have gone to Beyond The Heaven?
Meng Qi lowered her head blankly and stared at Beyond The Heaven jade slip she tightly held in her palm.
Did she go to see sister Xue Jinwen?
Afterward?
She blinked. What else happened?
“Meng Qi.” When Meng Qi was in a daze, three knocks came from the door, and Qin Xiumo’s voice came from outside: “Are you awake?”
“Yeah.” Meng Qi replied back and found that her voice was a little hoarse. Moreover, she felt that her eyes were a bit tingled.
“Can I enter?” Qin Xiumo asked again.
“Wait a minute.” Meng Qi took a deep breath and jumped out of bed. Inside the room, there was a vanity table with a mirror. Meng Qi quickly walked over there and examined her face in the mirror. Her hair was a little messy, but it was still okay. Her eyes….why were they swollen?
Meng Qi leaned closer. Her eyes were clearly red and swollen. Did she… cry?
No wonder she felt tingling in her eyes. Not only was she drunk, but she also cried?! Meng Qi was a little embarrassed. Why did she cry when she was drunk? She couldn’t even remember the last time she cried!
Suddenly, a rustle came from behind. Meng Qi quickly turned her head and met the little white tiger’s blue eyes.
“Uh…Xiao Qi, morning.” Although she knew that the little white tiger didn’t see her drunken antics, she still greeted the little guy with some embarrassment.
The little white tiger laying down lazily, his head tilted aside.
“Meng Qi?” Qin Xiumo’s voice came again, “Are you okay?”
“A moment.” Meng Qi activated a spell to quickly cleaned her body, then tidied up her appearance. She took out a small bottle from the storage space, poured out a little powder, and gently rubbed it on her slightly swollen eye. A cool sensation instantly replaced the slight tingling. When Meng Qi looked in the mirror again, her eyes had returned to normal.
“Come in.” Meng Qi put back the porcelain bottle and turned to open the door for Qin Xiumo.
The black-clothed young man stood by the door. As soon as the door opened, his eyes fell on Meng Qi’s face. “Have you sobered up?” He asked.
Meng Qi: “…” So he saw it!
The corners of Qin Xiumo’s lips raised instantly. He looked at the small, slightly embarrassed girl before him: “Aren’t you going to find jade cicada vine?”
“Ye..yes.” Meng Qi remembered. Right, she did go to Beyond The Heaven, looking for a cold jade box to store the jade cicada vine.
“Wait a minute.” Meng Qi quickly said: “I have to fetch some things.”
