Chapter 1314 - What! What’re You Doing?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Long Yue said with a deep voice, “Let’s wait until the Battle of Five Gods. We can lose, but we won’t take on any unfair spars.”

Yue Zhengyu extended an arm towards him of his own accord. “Maybe we’ll fight alongside each other someday.”

Long Yue was stunned. He was right! They belonged to the Tang Sect. Although Long Yue was partially removed from the Sect as he was focusing more of his energy on the Monster Academy, it was not entirely impossible for them to be fighting side by side from Tang Sect’s perspective.

“Zhengyu’s right. You could be allies in the future. Also, this day might not be as far away as you think.” The Smiley Face Douluo walked up to them. When he saw these youngsters with their stubborn eyes and souls that thirsted for victory, he could not help but felt comforted as their senior.

The younger generation was growing very quickly. This generation of Tang Sect would certainly leave their mark on the entire Douluo Star. Whether it was Tang Wulin or Long Yue, they would most probably become Limit Douluos in the future. Amongst their companions, at least half had the potential as well.

It was true that soul technology had been constantly improving, but a true peak expert was a being that surpassed godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunitions.

‘If Tang Sect could have five Limit Douluos in the future...’

Hu Jie had gotten all excited just thinking about the possibility. Amongst the current generation of youngsters, it was not impossible for such a thing to happen. They were only in their twenties. How old was he when he had reached the same ranks as them?

He felt slightly dejected at the same time as he remembered his original sect. Compared to Tang Sect’s rapid development, the Body Sect was wasting away. It was once the best sect on the continent, a sect that was even superior to Tang Sect. Now, it was only a second-rate sect. Those who possessed Body martial souls were few and cultivation in the Body Sect’s was a painful process. The current younger generation could not accept this kind of cultivation anymore. This was also one of the reasons why Body Sect was declining.

“Let’s have a meal together, my treat,” said Long Yue.

Yue Zhengyu turned to look at Yuanen Yehui and Ye Xinglan. The two ladies were slightly surprised by Long Yue’s invitation. Xu Mi’er was already near them. She smiled and said, “We’ve finally gathered together here. I want to ask you guys about our academy’s situation as well. Let’s have a meal together. After all, the one who’s going to participate in the Battle of Five Gods isn’t you guys. Also, there are many traditional delicacies in Star Luo City. They’re already considered lost in the federation, you know?”

“Sure, sure!” Xu Lizhi had practically blurted it out. He seemed to be salivating already.

Ye Xinglan rolled her eyes at him. Yuanen Yehui nodded and said, “Alright, then we’ll have to trouble you and your friends, senior.”

The Smiley Face Douluo caressed his round belly. “I’ll leave you youngsters to it. This old man will excuse himself. It is good to be young! It’s a time that I still remember fondly.”

Long Yue did not bring them to some fancy high-class restaurant. Instead, they came to an unassuming yard. This was a place that belonged to the Eight Heavenly Kings. It was a place they bought by pitching in their money together. The set up within it had all the elements that they liked.

They would gather here often. Usually, Hua Lantang and Ye Zhi were the ones looking after this place.

With the Eight Heavenly Kings’ status in Star Luo City, a dedicated staff started delivering Star Luo City’s various delicacies and filled the table.

The atmosphere between them had been cold and rigid before, they started off as opponents many years ago after all, and always had been so. This was their first time sitting down for a meal together.

Xu Mi’er produced a few jars of specially brewed rice wine. The atmosphere finally started to lighten up.

Long Yue sat at the main seat. At first, Yue Zhengyu sat beside him. However, Xu Lizhi had replaced him before long. The reason was simple, Long Yue’s alcohol tolerance was too high.

“Let’s play a game, shall we?” Teng Teng suddenly proposed.

“What game?” Maybe it was because they were both Agility System soul masters, Xie Xie found himself disliking this person.

Teng Teng said, “Of course it’s a drinking game. Are you guys old enough to drink yet?”

That was a blatant provocation. Xie Xie raised an eyebrow. “How’d you play it?”

Teng Teng explained, “The rules are fair and reasonable. Everyone will toast every single person here with a full cup. The person can only sit down to eat after he’s finished toasting everyone around the table. Then, it’s the second person’s turn. Everyone will take turns toasting everyone, and we’ll see who goes down first. How does that sound?”

Xie Xie stood up, unwilling to show weakness and said, “Bring it on! Since you’re the one who proposed it, you’ll be the first.”

Teng Teng raised his cup and stood up. He said with vile intent, “If you really can’t take it and don’t want to get drunk, it’s alright. All you have to do is tap my shoulder and say, ‘Big brother, I’m a coward’, and it’ll count it as a pass.”

“Say what?” Xie Xie asked with shock.

“Big brother, I’m a coward.” Teng Teng immediately repeated his own words.

Xie Xie immediately smiled. “Alright. Then sit down, you coward.”

“F*ck! That’s low. Come, Xie Xie, let’s have a toast.” Teng Teng moved quickly towards Xie Xie. His Agility System cultivation base was a good match for making toasts. Although he moved quickly, the wine in his cup did not even sway.

Xie Xie smiled at him. “I was just joking, I hope you’re not mad.”

Teng Teng grunted. “I won’t be if you drink it.”

“Cheers,” the cups clinked. Almost a half a liter of rice wine was gulped down by the two of them.

Teng Teng turned his wrist and suspended his cup upside down above his head. He did this to show that not a drop of wine was left in his cup.

Xie Xie followed suit. However, a few straggling drops dripped down onto his hair.

“Haha, you need skills to do this.” Teng Teng laughed triumphantly. He felt as if he had gotten even with Xie Xie.

Xie Xie wiped the wine on his hair with a napkin. “You’re a crafty fellow, you know that? Alright, go on, go drink with the others.”

Teng Teng poured another cup for himself and said with a smile, “Oh yeah, there’s another rule I forgot to mention, nobody’s allowed to use the toilet. Anyone who uses the toilet will face a penalty of three cups.”

Yue Zhengyu’s eyes immediately bulged. “Isn’t that too cruel?”

Teng Teng snorted. “You scared?”

Yue Zhengyu said, “You have more numbers.”

Teng Teng said, “Sister-in-law is also from the Shrek Academy, she’ll count as someone from your side. You guys are our guests from afar, we’ll not bully you. Our little witch is also on your side. This way, you’ll have more people on your side. We’ll see which side has someone left standing in the end.”

“Bring it on!”

They were all youngsters. Who would be willing to accede defeat when it came to drinking? With this, the unusual second-round contest began.

Although they were all soul masters, nobody cared to use their soul power to negate the effects of the alcohol. Teng Teng finished his round, and his eyes showed the greatest change. They became brighter. Other than that, there were no other changes.

They finished their rounds. When everyone had finished one round, each and every one of them had actually drunk more than twenty cups. The initially cold and rigid atmosphere immediately lightened up.

Suddenly, Xu Mi’er started to have this flirtatious smile on her face. She nudged Long Yue beside her and gently called out, “Darling...”

Long Yue was big and tall with a tough personality. He could not help but shudder when he heard such an address coming from Xu Mi’er, who was usually tough.

The others were also seeing Xu Mi’er in such a state for the first time. They all had different expressions, but they stopped their conversations. The room quickly fell silent.

“What! what’re you doing?” Long Yue looked at Xu Mi’er with an awkward expression. “Don’t address me like that. I’m not used to it.”

“I want to use the toilet...” Xu Mi’er lowered her head, looking as if she was wronged. It was as if Long Yue had been bullying her all this time and she needed his permission for every single thing.

Long Yue swallowed his saliva. He suddenly thought that it did not seem to be a bad thing if Xu Mi’er acted this way during normal times.

“Then go!” he hastily said.

Xu Mi’er lowered her head and said, “But, I don’t want to be penalized.”

The others finally understood what was happening. Everyone guffawed despite themselves. The Eight Heavenly Kings were even rolling on the floor. They never expected Xu Mi’er to have such a weapon in her arsenal.

Teng Teng laughed. “I regret it, I regret it. I shouldn’t have let sister-in-law go to the other side. What a shame, what a shame.”

Long Yue had a helpless expression. However, he found it worth it to have been able to witness this side of his wife. What were three cups compared to this side of Xu Mi’er that he had never seen before?

Xu Mi’er had an extremely famous moniker in Monster Academy, Guns and Roses. If she was not Long Yue’s lover, there were many who would have tried to win her over.
