75: System, you're selling fake alcohol.

The three didn't reply, simultaneously raising their wine and drinking it in one gulp.

Afterward, the three looked at each other.

Although the Wine Emperor was about to collapse, it wasn't that easy to actually knock him down.

As for Cao Bu and Lu Chen, they looked as if nothing had happened at all.

Cao Bu frowned inwardly and asked the System in his heart, "System, why does Lu Chen seem completely fine?"

[He has System protection, so naturally, he won't get drunk.]

Cao Bu pondered for a moment and asked again, "Can the three drunken deep slumber brew make him drunk?"

[Yes, but Lu Chen has the instant kill great emperor system protecting him; it will take a dozen breaths after drinking for it to take effect.]

[Additionally, Host, think carefully. The three drunken deep slumber brew is a supreme treasure that can heal anyone below the True Immortal Realm from severe injuries.]

To gain Leng Yue's inheritance progress, what did this small loss matter?

Cao Bu immediately said, "You can't catch a wolf without bait. Besides, I have ten catties; losing a few taels is nothing."

While Cao Bu was communicating with the System...

Lu Chen was also speaking with his instant kill great emperor system.

"System, whether or not I can get Qin Bingyao depends on you."

With that, his thoughts moved: "Open the System Shop."

[Ding! The System Shop has been opened.]

Lu Chen stared at the virtual screen in front of him and looked carefully.

Suddenly, an item caught his eye.

nine revolutions emperor bone rebuilding pill formula: Can repair a shattered Dantian.

Materials: emperor bone, Ten-Thousand-Year Stone Marrow Milk, void purple crystal, Solar Refined Gold Powder, Dragon Essence Fruit, xuanwu true blood... He cast a subtle glance at Cao Bu and asked, "System, can this nine revolutions emperor bone rebuilding pill restore Cao Bu's Dantian?"

[It can, but the System reminds the Host not to do things that harm oneself.]

Lu Chen dismissed it: "System, think about it. If he becomes a Great Emperor sooner, won't I be able to become a True Immortal faster by killing him? Then wouldn't you also be able to upgrade to the Immortal Emperor Instant Kill System sooner?"

[Host, you can't afford it.]

Lu Chen was disdainful. He currently had fifty thousand points; what couldn't he afford?

Immediately, he looked at the number below the nine revolutions emperor bone rebuilding pill formula.

"One hundred thousand points? So expensive!" Lu Chen exclaimed in his heart and immediately swiped past it.

Before long, he saw a wine called blue sky yellow springs, priced at ten thousand points per catty.

"System, can this wine knock out the Wine Emperor and Cao Bu?"

[It can.]

Lu Chen was overjoyed: "Good, for Bing Yao, I'll buy it!"

While Lu Chen was trading with the instant kill great emperor system...

...he didn't notice that Cao Bu was staring at him without blinking, seeing the contents of the virtual screen in front of him clearly.

"Old System, you truly are the Old Ancestor; you can even see what the opponent's System displays."

["Naturally."] The villain inheritance lottery system's tone carried a hint of pride.

While the two were communicating with their respective Systems, the scene fell into silence.

Elder Jin glanced over the three and proposed again, "Everyone, as I said before, how about a draw?"

Lu Chen snapped back from his System and interrupted, "Since the Wine Emperor's wine can't determine a winner, then use mine."

With a wave of his hand, three wine cups appeared on the table.

This move directly dispelled everyone's doubts about Lu Chen being a Mortal.

"This wine of mine is called blue sky yellow springs. Even an ordinary Great Emperor can't withstand it. How about we use it to decide the winner?"

He looked around and finally looked at the Wine Emperor.

The Wine Emperor stared unblinkingly at the three cups of wine in front of Lu Chen, subconsciously licking his lips.

"Lord Heavenly Emperor, could you tell us about the origin of this wine?"

The Wine Emperor no longer doubted Lu Chen.

This wine was not something an ordinary person could obtain.

Besides, Lu Chen's move just now was clearly not something a Mortal could do; he now believed Lu Chen's claim of having sealed his own cultivation.

Hearing the Wine Emperor's respectful title, Lu Chen smiled proudly and began to introduce it: "This wine has other names, such as the Two Realms' Affinity, the Tracking Wine..."

Three breaths later, Lu Chen finished speaking, his face wearing a touch of pride.

No matter if you, the Wine Emperor, have tasted all the fine wines in the world, you definitely haven't seen this one.

He gave a wink to Qin Bingyao behind him.

Qin Bingyao waved her hand, and the two cups of wine flew up, landing steadily in front of Cao Bu and the Wine Emperor.

"Wine Emperor, according to the order, you go first." Lu Chen gestured.

The Wine Emperor, unable to restrain himself any longer, picked up the wine cup and drank it in one gulp.

He tilted his head back, squinted his eyes, and spat out two words: "Good wine."

As the words fell, the wine cup in his hand dropped to the ground, and he collapsed straight onto the armchair.

Lu Chen seeing this, also picked up a wine cup and drank it.

He held up the empty cup for everyone to see, then quietly looked toward Cao Bu.

"Little Friend Cao, it's your turn."

Cao Bu said flatly, "Lord Heavenly Emperor's eyesight isn't very good; didn't you see that I've already drunk it?"

Lu Chen frowned and looked at the wine cup in front of Cao Bu; the wine inside was indeed gone.

He looked at Qin Bingyao with questioning eyes.

Qin Bingyao immediately nodded: "When the Wine Emperor was drinking, he drank along with him."

Hearing this, Lu Chen stared intently at Cao Bu.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths.

He cried out in his heart: Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"System, you're selling fake wine!"

[No, absolutely not.]

"Then what's going on now?"

[I don't know either.]

The instant kill great emperor system was also confused; this was the first time it had encountered something beyond its control.

Cao Bu didn't give Lu Chen much time to think and said loudly, "Heavenly Emperor Lu, now it's just the two of us. I've tried your wine, why don't you try mine?"

With that, Cao Bu waved his hand, and two cups of wine also appeared before him.

As soon as the wine appeared, it sparked a wave of discussion.

"Is this wine? Why can't I smell any alcohol?"

"It looks like water."

"It couldn't be fake, could it?"

Amidst the discussion, Lu Chen gave a light laugh: "Alright, I also want to see what kind of good wine you can produce."

Cao Bu didn't speak; he waved his hand, and a cup of wine landed in front of Lu Chen.

"Heavenly Emperor Lu, please."

Lu Chen took a look, said no more, picked up the wine, and drank it.

"Your turn." He smiled; as expected, he was fine.

Cao Bu smiled without a word, raised that cup of three drunken deep slumber brew, and drank it.

The two looked at each other; neither of them had anything happen.

"It seems your wine isn't all that great either," Lu Chen sneered.

The corner of Cao Bu's mouth curled slightly as he looked toward Empress Bingyao behind Lu Chen and said, "Heavenly Emperor Lu, you are here for Empress Bingyao, and I am here for my Adoptive Mother."

"How about this, let the two of them use my wine to compete."

"Whoever wins gets the moon soul crystal marrow and these Low Grade Sacred Artifacts, how about it?"

With that, he turned to Leng Yue: "Adoptive Mother, you won't blame Bu'er for taking the initiative, will you?"

Leng Yue shook her head: "No, it's a good chance to compete with Qin Bingyao."

She could also see that if Cao Bu and Lu Chen continued to compete, there was no telling when it would end.

Besides, the moon soul crystal marrow was what she wanted; this final step should naturally be hers.

Seeing this, Cao Bu smiled: "Don't worry, Adoptive Mother, Bu'er will definitely let you get the moon soul crystal marrow."

With that, he turned to look at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen looked back at Qin Bingyao and gave her a questioning look: "Bing Yao, what do you think?"

Qin Bingyao looked at Leng Yue, a hint of Battle Intent flashing in her eyes, and nodded: "Alright."

Lu Chen nodded and looked back at Cao Bu: "We can compete, but we can only use our respective wines to test the other, to see whose wine is more powerful."

Cao Bu smiled slightly: "Agreed."
