Chapter 344: Episode 12, Chapter 34: Drunk (If you have a monthly ticket, smash one!)
Mist and clouds twined together, and gauzy curtains fluttered.
Emperor Yu sat cross-legged in the pavilion, the same small table before him, the cup of tea having long since gone cold.
Gazing at the tea that had already gone cold, Emperor Yu smiled faintly and sighed in a low voice, "The mind is not at peace, not at peace indeed."
In recent days, Emperor Yu had paid great attention to the matter concerning ’Lan Feng,’ yet despite all the searches conducted by his subordinates, they had failed to find any trace of ’Lan Feng,’ who seemed to have disappeared from the world.
"To not find Lan Feng is one thing, but to not even find his junior, ’Qin Yu,’ either. I really don’t know what those people are doing," Emperor Yu sighed heavily.
After sitting quietly for half a day, Emperor Yu stood up.
"By now, the matter at Blue Mars should have been resolved. With Zhi Bai and the Blood Demon Emperor’s Xue Yileng joining forces, any number of experts should have been killed. Why hasn’t Zhi Bai communicated with me till now?"
Emperor Yu felt somewhat puzzled. According to the timeline, Green Blood Sword Immortal Zhi Bai should have long since sent a message to him.
Suddenly—
"It’s Zhi Bai." A look of relief appeared on Emperor Yu’s face as he flipped his hand and took out the Communication Spirit Pearl.
"Your Majesty, this plan has ended in failure," Zhi Bai communicated.
A slight frown appeared on Emperor Yu’s brow as he asked, "Failure? Zhi Bai, with you and that Yileng joining forces, there shouldn’t be many in the Immortal, Demon, and Demon World capable of thwarting this plan."
Zhi Bai also felt helpless inside.
"Your Majesty, the plan started off very well. Both Bi Dao Child and Xuanhuang Double Swords had appeared, and Yileng and I were already taking action to kill them. But..." Zhi Bai’s voice was filled with frustration.
"If Bi Dao Child and Xuanhuang Double Swords were killed, it would have been a success, but what happened? What unexpected event occurred?" Emperor Yu was still not very anxious.
"When I was about to kill Bi Dao Child, a mysterious person appeared and used their body to block my Sword Light, allowing Bi Dao Child to escape. Afterwards... when I was about to kill ’Bai Yi’ of the Xuanhuang Double Swords, that mysterious person appeared once again, using their body to block my Sword Light and allowing Bai Yi to escape. The true achievement of our plan this time is merely the killing of Huang Yi," Zhi Bai explained.
Emperor Yu fell silent.
A moment later, "Zhi Bai, you said that mysterious person resisted with their body? Were you able to sense how strong their cultivation was?"
"Cultivation..." Zhi Bai paused slightly, confused, "Your Majesty, I’m not very clear on the mysterious person’s cultivation as Yileng was the one to pursue and kill him afterward. But I feel that their energy did not seem very strong."
There was something Zhi Bai did not say out loud.
He felt that the mysterious person’s energy was only close to that of a First Level Immortal Emperor.
Around that of a First Level Immortal Emperor? Instinctively, Zhi Bai dismissed this possibility. He didn’t believe that someone at that level could block his Sword Light, even if they wore Divine Artifact Combat Clothes.
After all, he was a Seventh Level Immortal Emperor Sword Immortal, also relying on a Divine Artifact.
"Not strong energy, yet chased and to be killed by Yileng. But his body was able to withstand your strike," Emperor Yu murmured to himself, a slight smile gradually appearing on his face.
"Zhi Bai, do you still remember the message Qian Qi sent about Fengyue Star in the beginning?" Emperor Yu inquired.
Green Blood Sword Immortal Zhi Bai didn’t know why Emperor Yu mentioned this, but he still answered, "Of course I remember. In that battle at Fengyue Star, we lost more than half of our strength in the Silver String Star System."
Emperor Yu continued, "Do you remember how Qian Qi described ’Lan Feng’ at that time?"
"Remember, that ’Lan Feng’s body was able to withstand attacks from Yu Qingzi and even withstand consecutive attacks from Qian Qi... Ah, you mean..." Zhi Bai also finally understood in his heart.
"Yes, even though Qian Qi is not as strong as you, he is still a Fourth Level Immortal Emperor after all. His consecutive attacks, I suppose not even you would dare to withstand with your body, right?" Emperor Yu had a smile on his face.
Zhi Bai was suddenly taken aback, "Of course not, I am a Sword Immortal, not one of those people like Black Flame Lord and Bai Xuanjun who desperately practice Body Refining. Naturally, I wouldn’t be able to withstand the attacks of a Fourth Level Immortal Emperor with my body."
"But Lan Feng could, and I have mobilized countless people to search the route from the Blue Bay Star Domain to the Demon World, yet we still haven’t found Lan Feng. I now suspect... that mysterious person is Lan Feng, and Lan Feng has never left the Blue Bay Star Domain from the beginning to the end."
Emperor Yu made his judgment.
"Of course, this is just my suspicion. There is another possibility that Lan Feng is a subordinate of the Black Flame Lord and those others," Emperor Yu deduced.
"Right."
Zhi Bai agreed with Emperor Yu’s judgment.
Both of them had never thought of the Black Flame Lord, Bai Xuanjun, and others because if it were someone of the Black Flame Lord’s level, how could they possibly run away when encountering Zhi Bai and Xue Yileng? The Black Flame Lord would probably send Zhi Bai flying with one punch.
"Zhi Bai, how come you did not manage to capture them afterward?" Emperor Yu continued to ask, knowing without asking that they had not been caught.
"We encountered the Dragon Clan Prince, Ao Wuming," Zhi Bai’s words caused Emperor Yu to shake his head and smile.
"I understand, with Ao Wuming’s strength, even if you and Xue Yileng joined forces, you would not be his match. It’s not your fault that this plan failed," Emperor Yu communicated.
Zhi Bai gave a wry smile and communicated, "His strength is indeed very powerful, beyond my imagination."
"That’s for sure, Ao Wuming’s strength is at least three times yours. Normally, you might still have a chance against him, but once he transforms into his combat form, you would have no hope at all."
Zhi Bai was inwardly shocked.
The Dragon Clan’s strength has always been rather hidden, and he, as the number one person under Emperor Yu, had no clue about the strength of this Ao Wuming, yet Emperor Yu seemed to know everything about him.
"Now, that ’Lan Feng’ should be with Ao Wuming. As long as he is with Ao Wuming, it’s impossible to make a move," Emperor Yu pondered for a moment, and a plan began to form in his heart.
After one day!
All of Emperor Yu’s covert agents had begun to move out, and their target was... the Blue Bay Star Domain.

Inside Nameless Dragon Mansion.
Qin Yu, Ao Wuming, and Jun Luoyu have been heartily drinking for an entire day and night. Jars of liquor were being constantly brought in by the servants, along with whole roasted sheep, pigs, and cows.
Eating big chunks of meat and drinking from large bowls.
Before they started drinking, they had agreed that no one was allowed to use their internal energy to dissipate the effects of the alcohol. They were to let the strong drink intoxicate themselves and rely on each one’s ability to handle their liquor.
"This is my first time drinking and already went to the privy six times," Qin Yu’s face had a slight hint of drunken redness.
Qin Yu had transferred his soul back into his original body as soon as he entered the Nameless Cave Mansion and then apologized to Ao Wuming and Jun Luoyu in his true appearance.
Ao Wuming and Jun Luoyu were actually happy about Qin Yu trusting them that much.
One day and one night had passed.
Qin Yu and his two companions, even without using their powers to negate the effects of alcohol, were hard to get drunk due to their robust bodies. Even after drinking for a whole day and night, they would only feel slightly tipsy.
"Haha... Not to boast, but a cave mansion of my size, in the entire realm of immortals, demons, and spirits, there are definitely no more than ten," Ao Wuming said heartily, holding a large jug in one hand and a big lamb leg in the other.
"Ten, aren’t you exaggerating?" Jun Luoyu too broke into laughter.
Only when drunk did Jun Luoyu seem entirely at ease.
"I don’t believe it either." Qin Yu, at this moment, lost his usual stern demeanor, appearing very generous as he grasped a large bowl and drank heartily.
"Hey, you don’t believe it?" Ao Wuming tossed his head, resembling a golden-maned lion.
"Let me tell you, my entire cave mansion is made from one massive block of Primordial Spirit Stone. Just look at how big this mansion is, and you can imagine how gigantic that Primordial Spirit Stone must be," Ao Wuming declared with pride on his face.
Jun Luoyu also stood up.
"Yeah, this Nameless Dragon Mansion is indeed vast. Such an enormous Primordial Spirit Stone, tsk tsk... to have such a large Primordial Spirit Stone," Jun Luoyu echoed, cradling a big wine jug.
Luckily, Jiang Yan had been pulled aside by Ao Wuming’s wife for a chat early on; otherwise, she would surely have stopped Jun Luoyu from drinking so much.
"That big?" Qin Yu nonchalantly scanned with his Immortal Consciousness.
Compared to his own Qingyu Immortal Mansion, it was just a little smaller. Although the difference was not significant, Qin Yu naturally did not consider it larger than his own Qingyu Immortal Mansion.
"Not big?" Ao Wuming’s eyes widened in disbelief, "When I found such a huge Primordial Spirit Stone, so many from my Dragon Clan wanted to snatch it. In the end, it was just your big brother here, with a single speargun, who swept away everyone and seized it."
So, it turned out that this massive Primordial Spirit Stone had been seized by Ao Wuming.
"Impressive!"
"Strong!"
With a bit of drunkenness, both Qin Yu and Jun Luoyu gave a thumbs up. At this moment, they were somewhat uninhibited.
"Humph." Receiving praise from the two, Ao Wuming looked extremely smug, "To acquire such a huge Primordial Spirit Stone, it took a great amount of effort to refine this vast cave mansion, and then directly control it with Primordial Spirit Essence."
"Tsk tsk, directly controlling it with Primordial Spirit Essence, how convenient. Look at the other people’s mansions, using Township Steles to control it, what a hassle," said Ao Wuming as he looked up and downed several mouthfuls of liquor, then vigorously devoured several big bites of mutton.
"This mutton isn’t just any regular mutton; it’s from the ’Black Patterned Sheep’ unique to the Dragon Clan. The meat is both chewy and fragrant. I brought quite a few from the Dragon Clan and raised them in the Nameless Dragon Mansion. How else would there be enough for me to eat?"
Ao Wuming then finished off the whole lamb leg with a few more big bites.
"The Nameless Dragon Mansion is indeed remarkable, such robust Primordial Spirit Qi makes the body feel so comfortable," said Jun Luoyu, reclining in his chair and drinking, "This comfort, reminds me of the days when I used to lie on Ah Jiao’s legs, watching the starry sky, also feeling this comfortable..."
As he spoke, Jun Luoyu suddenly stood up, tilted his head back and downed the entire jug of wine into his belly.
"What a pleasure!"
Jun Luoyu slammed the wine jug on the side, shattering it, his spirits soaring high.
...
Drinking this way, the three of them let the alcohol gradually numb their senses.
Initially, they said it would be for three days and three nights, but in the end, no one knew how much they had drunk.
Qin Yu was lying on the ground, holding a wine jar, completely drunk.
"This feeling is very comfortable. Back then, when Li’er and I were lying on the grass in Qingyu Immortal Mansion and chatting, it was just as comfortable," Qin Yu squinted his eyes as he drank, a serene smile on his face.
That kind of smile would unconsciously appear on Qin Yu’s face when he was with Li’er.
"Qin Yu Immortal Mansion?" Ao Wuming, with a reddened face from drunkenness, paused slightly as he mistook ’Qingyu Immortal Mansion’ for ’Qin Yu Immortal Mansion’,"Brother Qin Yu, is your Immortal Mansion as good as mine?"
"Of course, it’s definitely up to par with yours," Qin Yu retorted.
"Nonsense, within the entire Dragon Clan, not even my old man’s Dragon Mansion can match mine," Ao Wuming, too, was reeking of alcohol, "Luo Yu, Luo Yu, get up, get up, you say, between my Cave Mansion and Qin Yu’s, whose is better?"
Jun Luoyu had long since become completely inebriated.
"Oh, whose is better, oh, oh..." Jun Luoyu’s eyelids drooped as he mumbled incoherently, thoroughly drunk.
"Come on."
Qin Yu suddenly stood up with force, "Brother Wuming, after seeing your Nameless Dragon Mansion, I’ll take you to see my ’Qin Yu Immortal Mansion’. It’s absolutely no worse than yours."
"Let’s go then." Ao Wuming also got up, dragging Jun Luoyu with him, "Luo Yu, you be the judge, whose mansion is better."
"Oh, oh." Jun Luoyu was in a state of confusion.
"Let’s go." Qin Yu had a thought, and instantly brought the two into Qingyu Immortal Mansion.
After a long time, the three of them came out again.
"How about it, mine’s good, isn’t it?" Qin Yu walked over to the table, picked up a large pork knuckle, and started eating. The servants beside him didn’t dare to say anything. Who were these people, that three of them had devoured dozens of cows and sheep?
Ao Wuming said, still smelling strongly of alcohol, "Hmm, it’s a bit bigger than mine, which is odd. Where did you get those Primordial Spirit Stones from?" In a half-drunk, half-awake state, Ao Wuming had scanned Qingyu Immortal Mansion with his Demon Recognition and gauged its size.
"Why do you care where they came from?"
Qin Yu swayed over to a chair and slumped down, "Anyway, mine is better than yours."
"Here, drink. Your mansion is actually better than mine, I’ll drink you under the table!" Ao Wuming also collapsed in a chair, mumbling a torrent of words, and as for Jun Luoyu... he had already passed out on the ground.
Quietness prevailed.
All three had finally drunk themselves to sleep. Since he started his cultivation... Qin Yu had never been drunk. He forgot his worries, his pressure, his reserve, his schemes and intrigues.
He drank heartily, as carefree as a child.
"All three of them."
Jiang Yan and a beautiful married woman walked into the center of the drinking garden. Jiang Yan pouted her lips as she looked at the three men, who were sleeping like dead pigs, with a sense of helplessness.
(Promise fulfilled! Drunkenness... It was time for Qin Yu to taste the flavor of drunkenness... also, a humble request for monthly votes)
