233: Chapter 233 Escape

After Daoist Master Cangxuan returned to the residence arranged for him by the Dragon Clan, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it felt.

Marriage?

Marriage, my ass!

Isn't it wonderful being on my own?

I can drink when I want, sleep when I want, go wherever I want, with no one to manage or question me.

Although that Dragon Clan princess is indeed beautiful—that figure, that Face, those long legs—

He admitted that he certainly wouldn't mind having a deep exchange with her.

But that would be limited to a "fast-food" style exchange, mutual consent, and saying goodbye at dawn.

Wanting to live together long-term?

That is absolutely impossible!

Besides, Daoist Master Cangxuan has lived for so many years; what kind of storms and waves hasn't he seen?

What kind of women hasn't he encountered?

If he were to be tied down by a woman so easily, what kind of life would he be leading?

"No, I must escape! I absolutely must escape!"

Daoist Master Cangxuan stood up abruptly, a flash of determination in his eyes.

He must escape!

If he couldn't escape, on the territory of the Dragon Clan, with that unfathomable Dragon Emperor presiding, he would have no ability to resist at all and could only follow their arrangements step by step.

Obediently get married in three months, then obediently become a live-in son-in-law, then obediently have a bunch of little Dragon children...

Just thinking about it makes his scalp tingle!

However, wanting to escape is not a simple matter.

The Dragon Clan has experts as numerous as clouds.

And that Dragon Emperor is an even greater super expert at the Half-Step Immortal Realm.

Every move he makes is likely under the other's surveillance.

"I must think of a way..."

Daoist Master Cangxuan paced back and forth in the room, his brain working at high speed.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration.

He remembered something—

When he had just achieved his Breakthrough to the Domain Realm, during a trip for training, he had inadvertently obtained a supreme treasure of concealment.

As long as he activated that supreme treasure, he could completely change his own Qi!

Now, he could use that supreme treasure!

Daoist Master Cangxuan carefully took out the treasure that looked like a stone from his Storage Ring and then activated it directly.

In an instant, the Qi on his body completely disappeared, as if he had turned into a lifeless stone.

"This is truly a good thing..."

Daoist Master Cangxuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and then he tiptoed to the window and took a look outside.

Outside, it was a dark and windy night, the perfect time to escape.

He took a deep breath, and then—

"Bang!"

He slammed his head into the window, but the window didn't budge at all.

"Damn it, there is a Restriction!"

Daoist Master Cangxuan clutched his forehead, grimacing in pain.

Only then did he remember that the residence the Dragon Clan arranged for him must have had a Restriction placed outside to prevent him from escaping.

"What should I do?"

He carefully peered through the crack in the door and saw Dragon Clan guards keeping watch at his door—two burly men at the Early Stage of the Domain Realm, standing straight on his left and right.

To get out through the front door, he would have to knock them unconscious.

But if he knocked them out, the commotion would be too great.

After all, the opponents were experts in the Domain Realm; although he was stronger than them, it was almost impossible to knock them out silently!

Dig a tunnel? Too much trouble, and this is the Dragon Clan; who knows what ancient Dragon arrays might be buried underground.

Daoist Master Cangxuan racked his brains, his gaze sweeping around the room.

Suddenly, his gaze landed on a huge wine jug in the room.

The jug contained a special strong liquor made by the Dragon Clan, which was extremely potent.

The person who brought him here had warned him that this was the best wine of their Dragon Clan, but he must never be greedy for more, otherwise, something terrible would happen!

Moreover, although that person said so, from the way their eyes lit up when they saw the jug, Daoist Master Cangxuan could see that the person was extremely envious!

As if thinking of something, Daoist Master Cangxuan's eyes lit up.

Then, he picked up the wine jug directly, pushed open the door swaggeringly, and walked out.

The guards at the door were all stunned after seeing him come out through the front door.

"This Fellow Daoist, it is so late, where are you going?"

Daoist Master Cangxuan raised the wine jug very casually, then said with a smile.

"Sigh... the night is long, and I have no desire to sleep. You two brothers have worked hard. Come, have a drink to warm yourselves up."

After the guards looked at each other, there was some hesitation in their eyes, but after seeing the jug in Daoist Master Cangxuan's hand clearly, their eyes all revealed a fiery expression.

"This... is that okay? We cannot drink while on duty."

"What are you afraid of?"

Daoist Master Cangxuan waved his hand, saying in an indifferent manner.

"I am the honored guest of His Majesty the Dragon Emperor; if something happens, I will take responsibility. Besides, it is just one drink, not getting drunk."

The two guards were swayed by him.

They took the wine cup, then drained it in one gulp, their eyes full of aftertaste.

"Good wine!"

"Another cup!"

Daoist Master Cangxuan poured them two more cups.

After three cups, the eyes of the two guards began to glaze over, and their bodies began to sway.

"This wine... is really too good..."

"I... I actually see Cuihua..."

"Bang! Bang!"

Two muffled sounds, the two guards fell to the ground, snoring like thunder.

Daoist Master Cangxuan smiled triumphantly, put away the wine jug, and walked swaggeringly toward the outside.

"Wonderful! The Dragon Clan's wine really lives up to its reputation!"

He walked quickly through courtyards, corridors, and past palace after palace.

Along the way, he met several patrol teams.

But every time he met a patrol, he would enthusiastically raise the wine jug and invite them to drink.

"Brothers, you have worked hard! Come, have a drink!"

"This is the imperial wine bestowed by His Majesty the Dragon Emperor; ordinary people cannot drink it!"

"Come, come, don't be polite!"

In the following time, everywhere Daoist Master Cangxuan passed, a whole group lay behind him.

"The eighth wave... the ninth wave... the tenth wave..."

He counted while walking, his heart blooming with joy.

Just like that, he managed to take down over a dozen patrol teams and hundreds of Dragon Clan guards with just one jug of wine.

There was no helping it; the main reason was that the wine was too good, and those members of the Dragon Clan simply couldn't resist the temptation.

Most importantly, Daoist Master Cangxuan was indeed the honored guest of the Dragon Emperor and was about to become the Dragon Emperor's son-in-law, so no one wanted to refuse to give him Face!

"Haha... great! These members of the Dragon Clan are so easy to fool!"

Daoist Master Cangxuan looked at the Dragon Clan gate ahead, trembling with excitement.

As long as he got out of that gate, the sky is high for birds to fly, and the sea is broad for fish to leap!

He took a deep breath and strode toward the gate—

"Stop!"

Just at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Daoist Master Cangxuan stiffened and slowly turned his head.

He saw that, at some point, an old man of the Dragon Clan was standing with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a smile.

There was no Qi emanating from the old man's body, but precisely because of that, it was even more terrifying!

Daoist Master Cangxuan squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying.

"This... this Senior, would you... would you also like a cup?"

The old man shook his head, pointed at the scattered guards behind him, and then asked.

"You brat, you actually took down so many of my Dragon Clan descendants!"

Daoist Master Cangxuan scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.

"They... their tolerance for alcohol is not very good."

"Not very good tolerance for alcohol?"

"You used Drunken Dragon Brew; that is our Dragon Clan's best wine. Even His Majesty the Dragon Emperor has to circulate his energy to neutralize it after three cups. You poured three or four cups into each of them; it's a wonder they can stand at all!"

Daoist Master Cangxuan: "..."

The old man sighed and patted him on the shoulder.

"Go back! His Majesty the Dragon Emperor said that if you dare to run, he will have me break your legs!!"
