765: It's just a small matter, I agreed

Xie Weilou laughed, "It's just a small matter, I accept."

If this Dan Dao Competition can help him enter the Danhe Realm, then participating wouldn't hurt.

Hearing this, Yan Qing's face lit up with joy. He quickly cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Brother Xie! Since Brother Xie has emerged from seclusion and advanced in the Dao of Alchemy, we should celebrate. I'll take Brother Xie to the most famous Eight Treasures Tower in the City for a drink."

"That works."

Xie Weilou nodded with a smile.

The two subsequently left the Yan Family.

Eight Treasures Tower.

It is the largest and most unique restaurant in Danwang City; only Cultivators are permitted to enter.

The fine wine and cuisine in this tower are very particular, all sourced from Spirit Medicine. The resulting wine and food carry immense power that can boost a person's cultivation.

Many Cultivators who come to Danwang City will visit the Eight Treasures Tower for a few drinks and to sample its cuisine.

The Eight Treasures Tower is not just a restaurant; it is also a place for bartering, where various Cultivation resources appear.

As long as you have enough resources, you can conduct the corresponding transactions.

Even a prominent figure like Alchemist King Lu Qian occasionally visits the Eight Treasures Tower.

Not long after.

Xie Weilou and Yan Qing arrived outside the Eight Treasures Tower.

"Brother Xie, what do you think of this tower?"

Yan Qing smiled as he looked at Xie Weilou.

Xie Weilou looked at the Eight Treasures Tower before him. The tower had eight stories, with carved railings and jade bricks, grand and magnificent—quite impressive.

"Excellent!"

Xie Weilou chuckled.

Yan Qing said, "The consumption at the Eight Treasures Tower is extremely high, and you cannot pay with ordinary silver currency, making it quite unique! Today, I will treat Brother Xie to a good taste of the fine wine and cuisine here."

"Mhm!"

Xie Weilou nodded.

"Young Master Yan is here! Please come in quickly."

When a welcoming maid of the Eight Treasures Tower saw Yan Qing, her eyes lit up, and she hurried forward to greet him.

Yan Qing was considered a regular patron of the Eight Treasures Tower, and since he spent lavishly, he was a major client.

...

Yan Qing smiled and entered the Eight Treasures Tower with Xie Weilou.

"What would Young Master Yan like to order?"

The maid asked with a face full of smiles.

Yan Qing grandly said, "Bring two pots of Eight Treasures Fine Brew and a table of Eight Treasures Delicacies."

The most expensive wine in the Eight Treasures Tower is the Eight Treasures Brew, brewed from eight kinds of rare medicinal ingredients. It can boost spiritual power, and a single pot requires a thousand-year Spirit Medicine.

The Eight Treasures Delicacies are even more extraordinary, cooked using eight kinds of precious rare medicines and the meat of eight kinds of Spirit Beasts. One table requires a ten-thousand-year Spirit Medicine.

The maid giggled, "Understood! Young Master Yan, please wait for a moment on the third floor."

Another maid stepped forward and led Xie Weilou and Yan Qing up to the third floor.

The third floor.

It was magnificent and exquisitely decorated.

In the center of the floor was a floating red platform, where several charming dancers were gracefully performing, their movements lithe and pleasing to the eye.

Xie Weilou and Yan Qing found a spot and sat down.

"It's her..."

Just after Xie Weilou sat down, he looked strangely in one direction and happened to see a woman wearing a white dress and a veil.

This woman was none other than the Longevity Saintess.

She had actually come to Xuanji Province too.

...

The Longevity Saintess glanced at Xie Weilou and frowned slightly.

It seemed her luck was terrible. Why did she run into this Plague God as soon as she arrived here?

Xie Weilou sent a voice transmission, asking, "Saintess, do you have some business coming to Xuanji Province? Or perhaps you couldn't bear to part with your lover—me—and secretly followed?"

The Longevity Saintess coldly swept her gaze over Xie Weilou, then replied via voice transmission, "I need to make a trip to Undying City!"

Danxuan Province is the province closest to Undying City, one of the Nine Great Forbidden Zones of the Eastern Barrens.

Xie Weilou was slightly surprised and continued the voice transmission: "Undying City is one of the Nine Great Forbidden Zones, full of unpredictable dangers. Why are you going there?"

...

The Longevity Saintess did not reply.

Naturally, she didn't want to go to Undying City, but that eyeball was forcing her to go there. If she didn't, she would have to enter Guangyin Ridge.

Seeing that the Longevity Saintess didn't answer, Xie Weilou smiled and didn't press further.

Yan Qing noticed Xie Weilou's gaze and curiously asked, "Brother Xie, do you know this woman?"

Xie Weilou smiled and said, "I don't know her! But she reminds me of someone."

"Oh?"

Yan Qing became slightly interested.

Xie Weilou said, "The Longevity Saintess of the Longevity Holy Land..."

"The Longevity Saintess?"

Yan Qing's pupils contracted.

The Longevity Saintess, peerless in the Eastern Barrens, was the favored daughter of a Holy Land. Although he had never met her, he had heard of her great reputation.

Legend said that the Longevity Saintess preferred white dresses and wore a veil... Yan Qing subconsciously looked at the Longevity Saintess, a look of surprise in his eyes. The woman before him was indeed extraordinary, causing him an inexplicable sense of dread.

He quickly averted his gaze. If the woman truly was the Longevity Saintess, he naturally wouldn't dare offend her; otherwise, if she became angry, the entire Yan Family might be instantly annihilated.

Not long after.

The fine food and wine were brought up, their rich aroma making the mouth water.

"Brother Xie, come and try this Eight Treasures Wine."

Yan Qing filled Xie Weilou's cup.

Xie Weilou raised the cup and sampled the wine. As the fine wine entered his stomach, spiritual power spread, making him feel warm all over. He praised it, "Good wine."

Yan Qing smiled and said, "This is the best wine the Eight Treasures Tower has."

Saying that, he poured another cup for Xie Weilou.

Just as Xie Weilou raised his cup, ready to sample it, a plain-looking woman, dressed in a Daoist robe and holding a whisk-sword, stepped onto the third floor.

"Yi..."

Xie Weilou looked at the woman. The person who arrived was precisely the Saintess of the Reincarnation Sect, Lu Mingya.

Meeting the Longevity Saintess here was a coincidence, but he didn't expect Lu Mingya to be here too. What a coincidence.

Lu Mingya's gaze fell upon Xie Weilou. She nodded lightly, then casually found a seat and ordered a pot of wine and a bowl of plain noodles.

The Longevity Saintess looked at Lu Mingya, a flicker of surprise in her eyes, vaguely guessing Lu Mingya's identity.

Why has this person come here?

Yan Qing looked strangely at Xie Weilou: "Brother Xie, this person really seems to know you."

She nodded—that counts as a greeting, so they must know each other, right?

Xie Weilou laughed and said, "This Xie is quite handsome, so it's normal for young ladies to like me."

"Brother Xie is indeed handsome enough!"

Hearing this, Yan Qing couldn't help but laugh awkwardly.

Xie Weilou said, "Don't just sit there, Brother Yan! Let's eat and drink together."

"Alright, alright!"

Yan Qing nodded repeatedly.

"Heh heh! Danwang City is truly small; I run into you everywhere."

Just then, a cold, mocking voice rang out. Ji Mingyuan and Lan Ruo were seen walking up the stairs.

Beside them were four young people with extraordinary bearing.

The four youths wore Alchemist robes marked with the characters 'Danhe' and looked arrogant. They all hailed from the Danhe Realm.

"Bad luck!"

When Yan Qing saw Ji Mingyuan and Lan Ruo, he merely raised an eyebrow and uttered those two words flatly.

Running into these two here truly brought bad luck!

Ji Mingyuan happened to hear Yan Qing's voice. His face darkened, and he immediately tried to pin the blame on Yan Qing: "Impudence! Today, this young master is hosting a banquet for several friends from the Danhe Realm, and you dare call this bad luck? Do you have any respect for my friends?"

(PS: Xie Weilou's Alchemy Realm in the previous chapter was written incorrectly and has been changed to Eighth Grade Peak.)
