Xuanli City, within the forbidden area.

Inside the cave abode.

The two sat on opposite sides of the table.

As Jiang Fugui took the wine cup, he joked:

"Brother, I've visited your place many times over the years, but you've never once come to visit me!"

Upon hearing this...

Cheng Buzheng smiled and said:

"Junior brother, how could you possibly have time to visit your Martial Brother there!"

"The Demon Beast and Desolate Beast that invade Xuanli Island are almost unpredictable, unlike the peaceful place where my Martial Brother is. Therefore, I have to be stationed here at all times."

"Junior brother, please apologize to your Martial Brother here!"

"Martial Brother, please!"

As he spoke, Cheng Buzheng raised his wine cup in a toast from afar and drank it down in one gulp.

The two then started chatting.

Much later.

Jiang Fugui's face flushed slightly as he said:

"Junior brother, after completing this garrison mission, do you plan to continue serving within the Immortal Alliance, or return to your sect?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Buzheng paused, then said:

"We'll see when the time comes!"

Of course, he had already considered his plans after completing the guarding mission the moment the Teleportation Array Disk was crafted, but these plans were not convenient to reveal and could only be left vague.

Cheng Buzheng sensed that the other person was a bit drunk, and the logic in his speech was somewhat incoherent!

Jiang Fugui then continued:

"After Junior Brother Cheng completes his mission, why don't you come with me to Liuming City?"

"My Little Sister is there, and she even has Nascent Soul True Lord as her backer!"

Cheng Buzheng was well aware of the immense power and intimidation wielded by having Nascent Soul True Lord as a backer; he was undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with in this city.

--May you have whatever you wish for!

While it brings him great benefits, it also has significant drawbacks.

His every move would definitely attract the attention of many cultivators, which was neither in his interest nor in line with his style.

perhaps.

It's a good choice for Jiang Fugui, but not the best choice for Cheng Buzheng.

Immediately.

Cheng Buzheng his glass and clinked it against Jiang Fugui's, taking a small sip and saying:

"Thank you, Martial Brother brother, but I really haven't made up my mind yet!"

"Come on, let's have a drink."

Upon hearing this...

Jiang Fugui looked somewhat disappointed, downed the Spirit Wine in his hand in one gulp, and said:

"Alright then!"

"Let me know when you've thought it through, junior brother."

"Okay," Cheng Buzheng nodded.

"Junior brother, I've made up my mind. I'll definitely let Martial Brother know as soon as possible."

Then, as if he had thought of something, Jiang Fugui smiled and looked at Cheng Buzheng, saying:

"Junior brother, are you familiar with the ' Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly '?"

Although Cheng Buzheng understand its meaning, he roughly grasped it from the name, and then said:

"What do you mean by that?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fugui smiled and said:

"The ' Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly ' is a major event within the Sea Suppressing Alliance!"

"It is held only once every hundred years, and there are countless rare treasures, including quite a few low-grade magic Law Treasure, and even a few mid-grade Law Treasure each time."

"That's a treasure that even Golden Core True Person covet, and even Nascent Soul Realm cultivators are quite interested in mid-grade magic Law Treasure."

"At that time, the number of cultivators gathering from all over the country will be enormous, and even the number of Nascent Soul True Lord will not be small."

"Moreover, there are no cultivation level restrictions for this grand event. As long as a certain amount of Spirit Stone is paid as a deposit, one can participate!"

Upon hearing Jiang Fugui mention the Spirit Stone deposit required, Cheng Buzheng's interest waned considerably, even though he also wanted to see it for himself.

But the Spirit Stone in his bag told him that he was not qualified.

Such a grand event would surely attract many cultivators eager to witness it. In order to select wealthy cultivators to participate, the required deposit would certainly be substantial.

Immediately, Cheng Buzheng spoke up:

"Martial Brother, are you preparing to attend this grand event?"

Jiang Fugui, beaming with health, smiled and said:

"Hmm, not bad!"

"The news has spread, and the date has been set for three years from now."

"The ' Ten Thousand Treasures Assembly ' will be held in Sea Suppressing Immortal City. How about we go together, Junior Brother?"

Jiang Fugui looked at Cheng Buzheng with a smile.

Cheng Buzheng said with a bitter expression:

"Martial Brother, although I also want to go and see it, I can't afford the deposit!"

"Let's forget about it!"

He shook his head at the end.

See here.

Jiang Fugui seemed to suddenly realize something, and slapped his forehead, saying:

"I forgot to tell you, I have a Identity Token that allows me to bring people to participate directly without paying Spirit Stone deposit."

"That's right, my little Little Sister told me about it last time she came over; she's the one who gave me the Identity Token."

As he spoke, his expression was filled with pride.

Immediately, Jiang Fugui took out a Identity Token and waved it in front of Cheng Buzheng.

Then he continued:

"Now you don't have to worry anymore!"

"How about we go together three years from now?"

See here.

Cheng Buzheng on ceremony and smiled:

"Then, junior brother, I shall accept your offer!"

"Thank you, Martial Brother."

Seeing that Cheng Buzheng readily agreed, Jiang Fugui did not hesitate and spoke up as well;

"Then it's settled."

Afterwards, the two chatted again.

They reminisced about their time at the White Cloud Sect and also talked about the interesting things that happened during their time guarding the town.

After finishing the Spirit Wine, Cheng Buzheng took out several more large jars of Spirit Wine.

The two chatted idly while drinking their Spirit Wine!

This drinking lasted for three whole days.

Three days later.

Cheng Buzheng, his face flushed, saw off Jiang Fugui face was also red.

Great Array outside the formation, Cheng Buzheng shuddered slightly as a strong smell of alcohol emanated from his body.

Cheng Buzheng, whose eyes had regained their clarity, glanced at the drunken Jiang Fugui and said:

"Martial Brother Jiang, it would be best to expel the alcohol from your breath, otherwise I really won't feel at ease letting you leave like this."

"How about we wait until you sober up before you leave?"

Although Jiang Fugui looked as if he was about to collapse, his mind was clear. He knew that traveling in this state was not suitable.

If you encounter trouble and your movements become sluggish and your mind doesn't keep up, something terrible will definitely happen!

Therefore, Jiang Fugui did not hesitate. He stirred his inner energy and a fragrance of wine wafted out.

A short while later.

Jiang Fugui, having recovered to his peak condition, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Cheng Buzheng and said:

"Junior brother, I'll be going now!"

See you in three years.

Cheng Buzheng smiled and replied.

As soon as he finished speaking, a beam of light shot up from the ground and streaked across the sky above Xuanli City.

A short while later.

Cheng Buzheng watched as the light disappeared from his sight.

After a long while.

Cheng Buzheng around and went back into the cave abode. He saw Little Roar Hou walking over, snuggling against his leg with a pitiful look on his face, rubbing against him incessantly.

See here.

Cheng Buzheng smiled slightly, took out a Spirit Beast Pill from the bottle, placed it in his palm, and held it in front of Little Roar's mouth.

"Alright, eat up!"

Little Roar didn't even glance at the Spirit Beast Pill in Jiang Fugui's hand, but in Cheng Buzheng's hand, it swallowed it whole.

It is clear that the various rumors about the Exotic Beast are not unfounded!

Little Roar wagged its tail happily, circling around Cheng Buzheng like a domesticated puppy.

Judging from its appearance, Little Roar wanted another one.

See here.

Cheng Buzheng patted Little Roar's head and said:

"One pill a day, no more, understand?"

Little Roar let out a low growl and lowered its head, as if to say, "I understand!"

Immediately.

Cheng Buzheng sat cross-legged on the Jade Bed and began to cultivate.

Then, Little Roar lightly jumped and lay down next to Cheng Buzheng, closing its eyes and showing a contented expression on its beastly face, enjoying the pleasure brought by the rich spiritual energy.
